the baby boy (probably the future father of Han Solo) vanish.

- After robbing a luxurious house on Corellia, Han spends the
night hiding in a tree from a security patrol, and he comes

- Winter is born on Alderaan.
- Dewlanna learns to play sabacc, and asks Shrike innocently

- The next time the Trader's Luck is in orbit around Corellia,
Han steals time away from pickpocketing and burglary to do some
research into his new surname at one of the public archives.
A few weeks later, Han is attending a school so well-known that
it merits a visit from the famous Senator Garm Bel Iblis. Han
raises his hand and asks him two precocious questions that are
insightful and intelligent enough to make the Senator really
notice him. After class is over, Bel Iblis stops Han, shakes
his hand, and asks him his name. Han sees that nobody else is
within earshot and proudly tells the Senator his real name.

reclusive widow with one son. He decides to take the chance of
running away and contacting the Solo family.

at the fight and are both impressed.
- Feeling cocky after his win, Han lashes out at Captain Shrike
for the first time and is instantly sorry. The speed and
strength of Garris's returning blow snaps his head back and
splits both lips so thoroughly that Dewlanna has to feed him
mush for a week until they heal. Shrike doesn't bother with a
strap, he just uses his fists, battering the boy's face and
body until his brother Larrad and several others pull him off
Han's unconscious form.

mother had pushed her at ever since they were in school
together. The two are on the verge of getting engaged when she
catches him sneaking around with another girl. She tells him
it is over, and her mother is furious with her for breaking up

life, Bria tells her "no."
- Bria hears about a revival being held by a Ylesian missionary.
She is feeling down on herself and cut off from everyone, so
she goes to the revival. The Ylesian priest finishes his

ship to Ylesia. She stops talking to her family after she
travels there.

that he can command the highest wages. It takes all of Han's
savings, plus the proceeds from two dangerous heists that
Garris Shrike doesn't know anything about, to finance those
alterations.
