The comic book story called "The Lesson" was initially published within the pages of Star Wars Tales 14 and subsequently compiled into the anthology Star Wars Tales Volume 4.
The central theme of the narrative follows Tu'ala, a Jedi Padawan, amidst the chaos of the Battle of Geonosis, as she comes to understand why Jedi must embrace the possibility of self-sacrifice in service to the living Force. The story unfolds primarily through recollections of Tu'ala's training under her mentor, Master Zuth. The core idea imparted to her is that fate may guide an individual toward personal distinction, or alternatively, toward enabling the success of others through selfless acts.
