We're back with more High Republic coverage as we near the end of Phase 2! On this episode, we're taking a deep-dive into "Cataclysm" by Lydia Kang, which finally brings us to the long-awaited Night of Sorrows. We discuss the books' core themes of concealment, forgiveness and second chances as it relates to Axel and Gella, motherhood through the eyes of Chancellor Kyong Greylark, and confronting fear being the destiny of a Jedi. Plus, #EggTalk makes its terrifying return, and we dabble in some wild speculation around the Levelers and Phase 3. (Spoilers ahead)
