Cavan Scott puts his stamp on phase two of The High Republic with the story of the fate of the Path of the Open Hand in Path of Vengeance.
Phase two of The High Republic draws to a conclusion with Cavan Scott’s Path of Vengeance. This book follows the Ro cousins as they navigate their way through the Path of the Open Hand’s actions on Jedha and then the Night of Sorrows on Dalna. Their story in this young adult novel spans the length of other works in this phase and sets up backstory for phase three of The High Republic. In this episode of Podcast Stardust, we are discussing the conclusion to phase two and the journey of the characters involved.
In this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- How this book largely features the “villains” in Marda and Yana Ro,
- How Marda was indoctrinated by the Mother and the beliefs of the Path of the Open Hand,
- The visions that Marda and Yana were experiencing during the novel,
- The mission to Planet X to find more of the Nameless,
- The reveal of the Mother’s identity and backstory,
- Azlin Rell’s madness and verse about the Nameless, and
- How this book and phase two sets up phase three of The High Republic.
