Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

Additionally, considering what we've seen now with how Dornun internally describes people's personality/character, I wonder how he sees Las's own change in character from his underachieving son to politically & economically savvy competent governor!

I imagine he was actually quite pleased. In his fucked up view of the world, his daughters are a fucking disappointment because they're boring as hell. Litttle good toy soldiers who do exactly what is expected of them at all times and flinch away from anything that may be interesting. Las, on the other hand, is the greatest plot twist Dornun's family has ever given him. A walking corpse, suddenly unveiling previously unseen depths and competency. Besting challenges and assassinations with previously unseen cunning, engendering loyalty out of sheer competence. And unlike Jir, Las seems immune to having the spark that makes him interesting be snuffed out by the realitites of the Empire. If anything, they seem to motivate him even further.

So I imagine Dornun is quite happy with it.
 
The author calling the two sisters flat cutouts are funny to me. They are that and they aren't utilized at all though they are in good positions of power
