[Not long after this.
At first glance, it appears to be Maketh holding the phone. It's her usual uniform, perfectly ironed, hair pinned up in a severe bun. She's standing outside the guardpost, rifle at her side. Everything looks as it ought to except for a single detail. The blue sash that all the guardsmen wear as a symbol of their position is nowhere to be seen.

It was horrible to witness it. The galaxy deserves better.

[Her eyes are bright and a little wild. The double fully believes everything she's saying.]
We will make it better.

[He had been tasked with that burden since he was 5 years old and now he made it happen. Despite Starkiller's loss, the feeling of accomplishing what no one, not even Palpatine, had remained strong with him.]

[The Empire will outlast all of them. It's about so much more than any one individual. It's about building the best possible world for their future generations. And should there be sacrifices along the way, that's only to be expected. Nothing worthy was ever built without a little blood to ease the way.]
