Nightswan turns partially back. His face is obscured by shadow. His body stance again holds weariness, along with a quiet dread. “You refer to the fact that it sings only as night is falling?”
“Yes,” Thrawn said. “You do not expect your stand to succeed, do you?”
“I know that it won’t succeed,” Nightswan said.
“That does not necessarily mean the end. I can give orders for you to be taken unharmed.”
“They’ll be ignored [].”
“Then come with me now.”
“A man must do what he must, Admiral Thrawn. Even if his stand is against the fall of eternal night.”

No "Andor" spoilers in here, but, I genuinely think that Nevil would be a perfect fit for it.
The Batonn insurgency and its tragic conclusion was a 2 BBY affair.
This means three potential years across the series two seasons for a Nightswan storyline.
And, no, it wouldn't be "fanservice."
Full of resentment against a nonsensically brutal Imperial domination, the miners in Batonn were normal people.
Although the movement was linked to a larger and sector-wide insurgence, its final goal wasn't a rebellion of a galactic scale, but simply a very human reaction to the longstanding abuse perpetrated by the local Governor.
Yes.
Deeply in tune with the "feels" of the new series.
Nevil Cygni.
No Force or noble origin.
Just a man and his commitment to leading other common men.
And he wears ochre shades already, a must for being in Cassian's world, it seems.

“Describe him, [] describe everything.”
“Dark hair,” Eli said. “Dark eyes. The textured skin of a man who’s spent a lot of time in the sunlight. Miners’ hands, scarred and callused. Slim body, but a full face. Never killed anyone unless he absolutely had to.”
He ran down the complete description []: how he looked, the sound of his voice, the way he did business. []
“Satisfied?” he asked.
“You met him, I’ll give you that,” Sisay said []. “Probably worked with him some, too,” she conceded reluctantly.
“So what’s the story?”
