POSSIBLE SPOILERS:

I like how you're starting to build up the suspense and thicken the plot. At the beginning, I felt like it wasn't all that original. But now, as the story is painted-in, I see that it’s original in it's own way, in that you stayed true to the values of the classic Star Wars while still adding your own twists and turns.

For this chapter particularly, I like how it has the whole "fate-destiny" theme right off the bat. It seems to fit well with the title, and we start to find out more about some of the characters' pasts, and more about their personalities.

If I had to pick one thing I like most about your writing overall, I'd say it's your skill to make the characters feel "real" in their own way, and give each of them a complete (sometimes) past that is relatable.
