Star Wars Story Ideas
Hi!First of all, sorry that it always takes so long to update. Currently, its difficult to get ideas how the story should develop without simply rehashing the canon and to create something original that is also intersting.

A small pilot chapter about an idea I had for a fanfiction in the Star Wars universe.
