Star Wars Journal - Hero for Hire by Han Solo

by Donna Tauscher

  I am standing outside the doorway of Han’s cell, unable to move. A strange feeling has come over me. I am a religious man, a man of compassion in spirit and words—but not in action. I cannot prevent the death of Han Solo. I am no match for a bounty hunter. And never before has this been a source of frustration!

  Mr. Solo has given me a lot to think about. The virtues of bravery and action. Loyalty and comradeship. Humor.

  I walk away from Han Solo’s cell now. But only to get a glimpse of his princess. Perhaps I had better learn some of the ways of Mr. Solo, if I am to protect her.

  Until then, I pray for the continuation of Han Solo’s history…
