Delve into the cutthroat world of one of the High Republic’s greatest foes the merciless
Lourna Dee in this full script for the Star Wars audio original Tempest Runner. The Nihil
storm has raged through the galaxy leaving chaos and grief in its wake. Few of its raiders are
as vicious as the Tempest Runner Lourna Dee. She stays one step ahead of the Jedi Order at the
helm of a vessel named after one of the deadliest monsters in the galaxy: herself. But no one
can outrun the defenders of the High Republic forever. After the defeat of her crew Lourna
falls into the hands of the Jedi—but not before she hides her identity becoming just another
Nihil convict. Her captors fail to understand the beast they have cornered. Just like every
fool she’s ever buried their first mistake was keeping her alive. Lourna is determined to make
underestimating her their last. Locked up on a Republic correctional ship she’s dragged across
the galaxy to repair the very damage she and her fellow Tempest Runners inflicted. But as
Lourna plans her glorious escape she makes alliances that grow dangerously close to
friendships. Outside the Nihil—separated from her infamous ship her terrifying arsenal and
her feared name—Lourna must carve her own path. But will it lead to redemption? Or will she
emerge as a deadlier threat than ever before?
