The fourth installment in The Brave New World Project Hamilton Rewrite.

This is the thirteenth post for The Brave New World Project! If you're interested in joining us, head to the discord. The Brave New World Project

Notes:

Hello! I am Aux, the Head Hauncho of The Brave New World Project. This is a Star Wars AU timeline in which the Separatists discover Earth between Episodes II and III, and eventually take it over. During the Clone War, the Republic liberates the planet, but then the Separatists attack again and the people of Earth are fighting to take back the planet from both the Republic and the Separatists.
This AU is just in its starting fazes, and since it's a collaberative project, I'm going to need some help. I'm currently the only writer, script writer, voice actor, and singer on the project, and I need help! If you are interested visit the Discord server here: The Brave New World Project.
This is a parody of the song "Story of Tonight" from "Hamilton" by Lin-Manuel Miranda. This is an in depth introduction to our most major act one players. For reference, Grace is a religious individual, which is why she makes the "Raise your eyes to Heaven" reference deal.

~ 1-14-2022: I made a small change to the line "we'll keep on fighting anyway" which was originally "we'll keep on fighting through the night"
