  1. Dude, that does not look like Vestara to me. This chick is blonde but Vestara is definitely a brunette! I don't know who else it could be, but I'm pretty sure it's not Vestara Khai. Jysella Horn maybe?

  2. OK I was wrong. It is Vestara. The hair threw me off. I can't wait for Conviction, Ascension, & Apocalypse! The Fate of the Jedi series is a really awesome read.
