Editing Star Wars Red Ledge/Lyta Connora (section)

===Background===
Lyta Connora grew up among the industrial aristocracy of the core world of Rendili, and when the Clone Wars broke out, she (or rather, her family) considered it her civic duty to go off to war.  As she was already most of the way through her engineering education, she was able to join the Naval Officer training corps and, a year later, joined the war at its height.  She oversaw technicians and clones repairing various capital ships, eventually serving on a Venator-Class Star Destroyer in the Open Circle Fleet during the Battle of Coruscant.

Lyta continued in service once the Republic became the Empire, and was insulated from the darkest changes at first.  Eventually, though, rumors of atrocities became mission reports.  Eventually, Lyta was Engineer's Mate aboard ISD ''Accuser'' when Alderaan was destroyed, and due to her position she was one of the few personnel that had the opportunity to read the manifesto Tycho Chelchu left behind after his defection before it was deleted.  Her own breaking point - at least the one that got her to go through with defecting herself - was the  ''Accuser'''s general bombardment of the neutral world of Kabal just because some rebel groups were meeting there.

When ''Accuser'' recieved its next automated supply freighter, Lyta stowed away in one of its holds, redirecting life support (with Tink's help) to keep her alive until its return to the Arkanis sector logistics hub on Akiva, where she slipped out with day laborers, and began the dangerous process of trying to get to the Rebellion.  The only place she was really sure she could find rebels was Dac, home of the Mon Calamari shipyards; the ''Accuser'' had been part of a failed attack on it a few months ago.  So she used part of her last credits on hand to get to the nearby, mostly-lawless planet Tatooine, and from there started signing on with smuggler crews headed in the right direction.  (She hadn't known that the ISD ''Devastator'' had left some of its garrison in Mos Eisley just a few months prior, and was terrified the Stormtroopers were actually there for her.)

Once she finally reached Dac, Lyta offered up everything she knew about Star Destroyer systems, and eventually she was approached by fellow defector Crix Madine about joining the Special Forces and applying her knowledge as a saboteur.  She spent the next five years on commando ops, attacking the infrastructure of the war machine she'd once served.

It felt... right.

Hopefully this will feel right again.
