Rebel extremists. The bane of the Galactic Alliance and the essence of what Leah despised the most. Radicals was what caused the tragedy on Dantooine and the death of her husband. Because of them, the Rebellion was in the situation it now was. Be that as it may, as unforgiving the Jedi Master may be, the rebel ambassador could not take the rebels out of the equation. They played an important factor in the campaign for Jedha. Already in control of several points on the planet, in possession of weapons and munitions much needed by a desperate Alliance. They likewise retained enough manpower to aid in eliminating the Fanged Disciples, cultists who ruled the Holy City with an iron fist. Leah needed their support if the Jedi ever wanted to maintain a presence on the wayward world.
According to Rebel Intelligence, the rebel movement was located in the far reaches of the city outskirts. Tucked deep inside a crypt and monastery well past its prime, it made the perfect base of operations for the extremists, or as they called themselves, the Renegades. However, perfect as the sanctuary was, the rebels were cornered. Under siege by a small ensemble of the cultists, armed with heavy weaponry obtained under mysterious circumstances, the Renegades were forced to hunker down. Now, believing the Alliance could be of use, Leah sent two rebels to be the breakthrough the Renegades needed. By squashing the cultists, the Rebellion might not only finally gain an audience with the extremists, but prove their worth on the battlefield.
Leah had no doubt that Devrim Wolfe and Crix Dolan could do the job. One man was an experienced Jedi on the path to Knighthood and an agent of Rebel Intelligence. The other was a resourceful smuggler, a classy gunslinger and natural charmer. Leading a continent of Alliance soldiers, breaking through the siege would be a walk in the park. Persuading the Renegades, even if they were impressed by the display, was a variable she was left uncertain of. Nonetheless, the Jedi Master left the pair with one last thing, just before they engaged the enemy in their makeshift encampment:
“May the Force be with you.”
