Complete story — includes the ending

In the aftermath of the Ghorman massacre, the Empire frames the incident as an insurrection. Mothma writes a Senate speech denouncing Emperor Palpatine and prepares to flee to Yavin IV. Senator Bail Organa chooses to stay behind to aid the Rebellion in secret. Luthen learns from Jung that Bail's security team is compromised and assigns Cassian to extract Mothma from Coruscant. Meanwhile, Luthen clashes with Mothma over the depth of his subterfuge within the Rebellion and his choice to have Tay killed. With Organa's help, Mothma takes the floor of the Senate and powerfully condemns Emperor Palpatine and the genocidal Empire's manipulation of the truth. Cassian convinces Mothma to leave with him, killing the spy in Organa's rival security team and Mothma's ISB-planted driver Kloris; he brings Mothma to the safehouse on Coruscant where she publicly positions herself with the Rebellion. Cassian accompanies the injured Wilmon back to Yavin IV. Disturbed by recent events, Cassian resolves to leave and begin a new life with Bix, but Bix departs during the night, leaving Cassian a message that implores him to stay and help the Rebellion and promises that she will find him again once it succeeds. Later, technicians reprogram K-2SO, the stolen KX droid, to serve the Rebellion.
