The big unfinished story of Babylon 5 was the Telepath War.
But through spin-offs, books and unaired scripts we can find out what
happened to Bester, the Psi Corps, Lyta, Garibaldi and Lennier.

Let’s not forget to mention that Jay Michael Stramski is a sick lying piece
of garbage.

You skipped what I consider the most tragic part of the Paris story.
After Bester mindwipes the women he had fallen for he finally sees the
portrait of him she had been painting and realizes that she had seen the
truth of him. That she cared for him and would not give him up.
Then he destroys the painting.

Later at the trial, as he's telling the story painting himself as being
correct, he sees the woman in the audience and she looks at him, her
expression blank. She feels nothing for him. And he stumbles, finishing his
story but with no real drive anymore.

That was the section that stayed with me - both the mindwipe, and the moment
in the court.
Also, given the timeline, Bester was in his 60s during season one of the
show, so Garibaldi was fighting an octagenarian in the final book.

My favorite part of the book is at the end when Bester is buried, the French
detective is there and see Garibaldi at the Graveyard with something in his
hand - it's a wooden stake.

Garibaldi puts the stake in the dirt over Bester's grave - right where his
heart would be located. Mr. Garibaldi can hold a grudge with the best of
them.
