cw: mentions of war and death

No. [Roger turns very morose.]

The galaxy had just gone to war when I left. Moxie and Ka-Pao had just helped me escape from a Hutt, and we had all gotten stranded on an asteroid. They didn't come here with me.

One of my family members was a Senator, which means she lived on Hosnian Prime, and that blew up when the war started. I don't know if she was on-planet, when it happened. [He hopes not, but the odds aren't good.]

Everyone else I care about is either scattered across a galaxy that's just gotten very dangerous, or are fighting for a very small army against a very big army. [He didn't even know the Resistance had survived the Battle of Crait at all until a few hours before he arrived on Revan.]

I don't know if it's better to be here, and worry things might be bad, or to be there, and know things are bad.

[So far he's just tried to keep it out of his mind. To be grateful that he's here, that he's spared whatever the First Order is doing. He knows it can't last, that he needs to get back and fight, eventually. But for all of Revan's challenges, it's relative bliss.]
