Synopsis:
This story was originally published as X-Wing Rogue Squadron #13-16: The Warrior Princess by Dark Horse Comics:
  • Issues 13, 14, 15 & 16:
    The squadron's roster has contained Corellian heroes and Alderaanian fighter aces, but when the royal court of Eiattu comes to reclaim their princess from the ranks of Rogue Squadron, it's a surprise to everyone: especially the princess!
    When the royal court of Eiattu came to Rogue Squadron to collect their princess -- Plourr Ilo, who was unaware of her heritage, they did so to help put an end to their planet's internal rebellion. They reasoned that a strong figurehead might pull the people together, what they couldn't know was that a strong-willed princess might have her own view of how things should be run.
    Crown, crown, who's got the crown? Plourr Ilo has reluctantly taken it on, but finds being a princess can be even rougher than being a warrior. Her brother instead wants to destroy the crown, not knowing that his own lover intends to claim, not only the crown, but the planet for herself! And as the different factions battle it out, the Empire waits in the wings, waiting to claim whatever remains. But standing in their way is the fabled Rogue Squadron and they've decided to take out the Empire, one TIE fighter at a time!
    This man making a bid for the throne of the Royal Citadel of Eiattu, this man who would lead the Peoples' Liberation Battalion to rule this world, claims to be the brother of the current ruler, Princess Plourr. But Plourr knows, with great certainty, that this cannot be. To reveal the truth might destroy his power, but it could, in turn, destroy her as well.
