Summary
There's a long tradition on Mandalore: whoever holds a Taung's hide has effectively married them, and only stealing that hide back can return a Taung's free will. When someone steals his, Mand'alor the Indomitable wakes from millennia asleep to a vastly changed world, a clone squad stranded deep behind enemy lines, and a clone commander with enough secrets to get all of them killed.
Fox isn't the only one with an uncertain agenda, though. In the place of Indomitable's birth, a mountaintop city of shrines, something strange and old and powerful is stirring, and it won't be put back to sleep so easily.

Summary
Fox finally settles on something close enough to all of those, but just a step to the right. “Are they usually like that? Unnerving?"
“Always,” Gree says, those eyes that never miss a single detail. “Every single one of them.”
(Seven clone commanders gathering for a drink, and their reflections on war, love, and Jedi.)

Bookmarker's Notes
This story is one of the most lovely and beautiful that I have ever come across. The authors blend humor and that wonderous moment of contentment only gained by witnessing something truly beautiful masterfully. I believe that they truly capture the spirit of Terry Pratchett.

Summary
The new Watch trainees are an odd bunch. There's a Dwarf, of course, but that's practically routine in Ankh-Morpork these days. There's a couple of Men, one of whom has a shiny shiny sword. There's a bunch of Hobbits, new to the city, one of whom is a little quiet and subdued. There's even a Wizard (thanks to Vetinari's damned blasted equal-employment quotias). And lastly there's a suspiciously pointy bloke who swears he's not an Elf, even if he sings just a little too much...
When one of Gimli's cousins seems to miraculously return from the dead only to report another missing person, a chain of events is set in motion that leads to this bunch of mismatched raw recruits stumbling into a new, unpleasant and dangerous sort of investigation...
