Mission to Kijimi
On Kijimi, C-3PO's memory was hacked to read a Sith inscription, after which the team freed Chewbacca from the Steadfast, and the unmasked spy General Armitage Hux was executed.
Description
The Sith dagger found on Pasaana bore an inscription pointing to the Emperor's wayfinder, but the protocol droid C-3PO could not translate it: his programming forbade him to render the Sith language. The master Babu Frik, who lived on the snowy planet Kijimi, occupied by the First Order, undertook to bypass the restriction. Zorii Bliss, who knew Poe Dameron from his past as a spice runner, agreed to guide the group to him. Accessing the droid's memory meant its complete loss, and C-3PO agreed to this; the deciphering pointed to a moon in the Endor system. At that moment the Star Destroyer Steadfast took up position over the planet, and Rey sensed that Chewbacca was alive. Having boarded the ship using a captain's clearance, the group split up. Finn and Poe freed Chewbacca, helped by General Hux, who turned out to be a Resistance informant. Rey, meanwhile, in a duel through their bond in the Force, learned from Kylo Ren about her origins and that he considered them a dyad.
