    Summary

    During the first years that I loved this book, before the TV version, the only imagery that I had was that of the Bible, Dante, and Milton. (That is, apart from the beautiful wood-block style illuminations in the book itself, which the authors were not allowed to keep when they changed publishers.) This is what the story looked like in my head all those years, when I was trying to answer the following questions:

    How did Crowley end up Below?

    If Aziraphale is supposed to be guarding the Tree of Life, what’s he doing in London?

    What’s the deal with Crowley and the houseplants?

    Why is Aziraphale a Principality, when the Bible clearly says Cherubim?

    These are my answers. I hope that you enjoy.

    Summary

    So it was fine. Even if Crowley couldn’t love him, he clearly liked him well enough, and that was almost the same thing.

    It no doubt would have continued to be fine, or at least fine-adjacent, were it not for a narrowly averted apocalypse and several bottles of a really quite nice Riesling Aziraphale had found in the back room of his newly restored bookshop.

    Summary

    "What's the point of pacifism if people still have to die for me, Obi-Wan? Or worse ... still have to kill for me?

    "We're fighting for peace, Satine."

    "You know I don't like that phrase."

    "And I don't like killing. But there are people whose goal in life is to end yours. And if it's you or them, I know what I'm going to choose. That's never been a choice."

    "Yes, it was. But not anymore. If I expect people to defend me, they have to know I will defend them as well." She ignited the Darksaber. "But you'll have to teach me."

    "You're serious about this?"

    "Deadly."

    In 2013, Dave Filoni revealed that Satine's story originally looked very different from the Lawless arc. Details were sparse but fans learned that the Duchess wore beskar, took the title of Mand'alor, and had to ally with Death Watch to defeat a greater enemy. When George Lucas decided instead to bring Darth Maul back, Satine's original final arc was scrapped.

    This is that story.
