Set two centuries prior to the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, during the esteemed High Republic era, the Jedi serve as the galaxy's protectors of peace and justice!
The Jedi believe that the fearsome Nihil marauders are nearly defeated. Their leader is in flight, and their numbers have significantly decreased. Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh anticipates finally having the opportunity to properly train her Padawan, Imri Cantaros—however, reports of a Nihil assault on Port Haileap quickly shatter those hopes. The Nihil have not only attacked the peaceful outpost, but they have also kidnapped Vernestra and Imri's friend, Avon Starros. Determined to discover where the Nihil have taken their friend, the two Jedi embark on a journey to Port Haileap. Meanwhile, Avon must utilize her intelligence and abilities to their fullest extent as she struggles to survive among the Nihil—and uncovers a dark scheme. Can Vernestra and Imri rescue their friend before disaster occurs?
