She must've contained the blast with the Force, some kind of Force bubble. So whilst the wreckage of the ship wasn't contained, the actual energy of the hyperdrive exploding was. And we know that's exactly what happened, the hyperdrive itself exploded; not merely the ship.

So Vaylin’s barrier wasn’t powerful enough to stop all of the effects - it only stopped part of it, given that the wreckage itself comes from the explosion. If she contained the entire thing there wouldn’t have been an exploding ship.

Well actually what do you mean by wreckage, the wreckage of the ship that had the damaged hyperdrive, or the total wreckage? Because if it’s the former, I’m not sure it really matters if the potency of the hyperdrive explosion is consistent with what zen posted on the last page.

"She knew her daughter was still alive; on some level Senya would have sensed her death. But even shielded by the Force, the blast would have been strong enough to leave Vaylin disoriented and weakened. Vulnerable and fearing for her life, she might have fled."
Are you really attempting to claim that the bolded text is referencing that the blast was "shielded" rather than Vaylin...

I get what you're saying, but does it really make sense for it to say the blast was shielded if it meant that it was being encased in a barrier? Seems like it's more likely referring to Vaylin shielding herself otherwise; it would have been phrased differently, Vaylin wouldn't have been mentioned prior to the blast, and it wouldn't have directly referenced that despite ____ being "shielded/protected" VAYLIN still suffered certain effects ( I.E. she's the subject of the quote ).
*Shrug*
That's just my take on it. Not saying your interpretation is invalid, I just find it to be less likely then the obvious alternative.
