Phoenix Squadron tries to break an Imperial blockade in order to provide food supplies to those who need it, but their transport is destroyed and the mission fails. Hera is then tasked go to a planet whose atmosphere is very difficult to fly in to get a ship being built by a Mon Calamari named Quarrie that can break the blockade. After nearly crashing her shuttle, Hera manages to convince Quarrie to let her pilot the ship, called the Blade Wing, or B-Wing for short. With the Blade Wing’s firepower, Hera manages to singlehandedly destroy one of the Imperial blockade ships, allowing the Ghost to break the blockade and deliver the needed supplies.
