The ships exited hyperspace, and Poe's first thought upon seeing Exegol was that it looked dead. It was the the ugliest thing he'd seen in a long while, and he wondered if it had always been this way, or if building a colossal fleet of Star Destroyers here had killed the place.

And when the ships dived into the cloud cover, they nearly ran into the Sith fleet. It was massive. Their triangled hulls were enormous, but they grew even smaller as their numbers seemed to stretch into infinity.

"Great dark seas," Aftab Ackbar gasped across the comm. "Look at that!"

"No sign of the Falcon or allies," Tyce said from her ship.

"Help will get here," Poe assured them.

Lana was briefly disappointed she'd never bothered to master throwing her saber.

Lana reached out toward him without looking and made a pulling motion, hauling him up with the Force and throwing him off the side of the ship.

He even made a little "ahhh!" noise as he went over.

It did give the others the needed time before they could start firing again. They didn't have a lot of targets. It was easy to focus on the Resistance, even if some of them were scary.

Lana sighed. "You're not even trying, are you?" She leapt into the middle of them, whirling her lightsaber in a circle.
