Hera Syndulla: I was a little girl when the Clone War came to Ryloth. My mother hid us below ground, but I'd peek out when the Republic ships flew over as they fought to liberate my world. I dreamt of nothing more than to be up there with them.

Quarrie: So, you left your family to fight?

Hera Syndulla: I left my family so I could fly.

Quarrie: As a combat pilot.

Hera Syndulla: If we want freedom, we must make difficult choices. I chose to leave my family, I chose to learn to fly, and then I chose to use that ability to help others in need. But it's all rooted in something I can't explain... A need to be up there. Because even when there are explosions all around me, and things are at their worst, I feel like I'm at my best.
