Я всё же прошла сюжетку The Eternal Throne. За светлую сторону. Мысли чуть позже - сначала надо их обдумать. А пока что несколько красивых писем - чтобы их не потерять в собственном сознании.

I'm sending you this because I'm not ready to talk about my daughter's death in person. Sometimes it's easier this way. Speaking the words out loud makes it more real. More painful.
I know Vaylin was damaged. I blame Valkorion for that. I blame myself. I know she left you no other option, and I don't blame you for her death. She had to be stopped. We did the right thing. But she was still my daughter, and it still hurts.
Sometimes, I remember her as a little girl. She was everything to me back then. But I lost her. And no matter how hard I tried, I never got her back. Yet some part of me still hoped for a miracle. Some part of me hoped she would come back to me as the daughter I once knew.
Now that she's truly gone, I know that will never happen. It's a terrible thing for a mother to face, but I've accepted it. I don't have any choice. We still have work to do. I promise you I will be ready.From: Satele Shan

You've changed the galaxy forever, Commander. And I'm not talking about Vaylin's defeat or your conquest of the Eternal Throne. Valkorion is gone, never to return.
I felt the destruction of his spirit from half a galaxy away--a shockwave in the Force that ripped through me with such power I nearly blacked out. I've never felt anything like it before, but I knew instantly what it meant.
At first, I was afraid to believe it was true. But Darth Marr's spirit felt it, too. He confirmed what I'd felt was real, and not some fevered imagining. The master he served for so long--the Sith Emperor that ruled his people for millennia--was no more. This time, he will not return.
You were our champion, Commander. Our last hope to defeat an enemy that was immortal and eternal. It was an impossible task, but somehow you found a way.
Thank you, and may the Force be with you, always.From: Empress Acina

Congratulations, Commander. I'm sure you're overwhelmed by the thanks and praise of elected officials and rulers from a thousand worlds right now, but let me add my voice to the chorus.
My people's worlds were being slaughtered before you stopped the Eternal Fleet. For that, you have my gratitude. You've done the galaxy a great favor by removing Vaylin from power. The Eternal Throne is your right. You've earned it.
While this victory belongs to you and your Alliance, I like to think the support of the Sith Empire helped in some way. I hope you will remember who stood by you in the early days. As much as you have accomplished, this is only the beginning: together we can accomplish so much more.
Please let me know the next time you plan an official visit to Dromund Kaas. I guarantee my entire planet will turn out for your victory parade.From: Arcann

Valkorion is gone. Finally.
As hard as I try, I will never forget my father's cruelty. Those empty, dismissive eyes. His attempts to break me and my siblings, eroding kindness until there was nothing left but hatred and resentment. Only my brother Thexan found a way to cope... until my rage destroyed him.
When you saved me on Voss, I was struck by how much you reminded me of Thexan. You both have a gift for inspiring loyalty. It is a shame you two never met.
Now Thexan, Valkorion, and Vaylin are all gone, but I am no longer alone. I have my mother. I have the Eternal Alliance...
And I have you.From: Lana Beniko

Greetings, Commander.
News spread fast of your new role as peacekeeper and champion of the Eternal Alliance. Vaylin's campaign of destruction carved deep wounds from the Core Worlds to the fringes of Wild Space. The galaxy now looks to you with renewed hope.
Per your orders, we have dispatched several Eternal Fleet ships to the most damaged worlds--starting with Zakuul. Each vessel is loaded with food, supplies, and Alliance volunteers, everything needed to heal their ravaged homelands. Zakuulan officials sent you the attached tribute as a gesture of gratitude.
Despite your generosity, the Sith Empire and Republic remain skeptical. Reports indicate that key leaders fear your ulterior motives and the unchecked power you wield as the master of the Eternal Fleet.
Our spies will continue to monitor the situation.
