The era of the Jedi and the Sith has ended.

They have all but disappeared,

and with them, the ancient art of crafting their sacred weapon,

the lightsaber.

A terrible age of conflict now mires the galaxy in chaos as warlords rise.

Among them, the fierce masked general, Nawaam, has emerged,

spreading terror as planets fall under his control at an alarming rate.

Amid this, Margrave Juro works to bring back the Jedi Order

in hope that they can restore peace and justice to the galaxy.

How are they doing this? They keep finding us no matter how many times we jump.

There must be a tracker on the ship somewhere.

They probably put one on us during our first run-in.

What?

Lord Nawaam, I will soon have Margrave Juro's ship.

This will be the day I wipe out his pathetic group

and return with all of their lightsabers.

Our enemies see themselves as masterless Jedi.

You'd be wise to not let your guard down.

I, Gennoh, would never back down from any Jedi.

Very well.

Then show me the power of the last Sith.

As you wish.

Master, the ship's navicomputer is down.

And what about the backup?

Those are all shot as well.

There's no way we'll be able to make a jump to hyperspace without them.

Can you repair it, Kara?

There's no time. We won't make it.

All right. Take the controls, Gramps.

Get ready to make the jump as soon as we get into a better position.

Good grief. Very reckless, kid. Very reckless.

The coordinates?

I've got all that stuff up here in my noggin.

Well, then, where are you taking us?

Jump as many times as you wish. It's still futile.

I have you now.

Gramps, are you seeing what I'm seeing?

Do something. We're being pulled right into that black hole.

Relax. A ship this nimble will be able to make it out easy.

Not sure about that big clunker behind us, though.

High gravitational pull detected.

Navigation disabled.

Of all the petty tricks...

That was quick thinking.

Quite the strategy, Gramps.

Enough compliments. We need to get out of here now.

Things are about to get a little bumpy.

Whoo-hoo!

Gramps, you're the best!

That is accurate. We have escaped the black hole.

Now then, where shall we jump to next?

Our best course of action would be to head to Makoma Ko.

Set a course immediately.

All righty.

We have insufficient thrust.

I'll handle this.

So this is Makoma Ko.

It's ruled by a man named Dunbai.

He was a Jedi a long time ago.

A Jedi, that's a surprise.

Dunbai is well known.

He's one of the wealthiest merchants in the Outer Rim.

Hard to imagine he was once a Jedi.

Hmm. Then I really hope he'll be able to help us.

Apologies, Margrave, but I'm afraid I will be unable to lend you any assistance.

Lord Dunbai, do you mean to say

that you will allow the galaxy to continue to fall into chaos?

My primary duty must be to protect my home, Makoma Ko.

My hands are full enough with that.

Hmm. What's this?

It is a saber forged by Lah Zhima.

I ask you again, will you take this up and fight once more as a Jedi?

You will never be able to bring back the Jedi Order

with such a paltry number.

And furthermore, there is no master among you.

You're wrong. We do have a master, and his name is Margrave Juro.

If you have the strength to stand up against Nawaam,

I have no doubt others will follow.

This is an opportunity to provide them with a beacon of hope.

Hmm.

That may be.

However, blindly gathering others won't bring the Jedi back.

I can only hope that you will not find yourselves crushed

if you insist on pursuing this fool-hearted quest.

Although I seriously doubt this Nawaam would be the one to do it.

You should not underestimate Nawaam.

As we speak, he is busy amassing a fleet,

and soon it will be the biggest in the galaxy.

His Nobuseri fighters are a problem.

A throng of brutes who have never bent the knee to anyone

now swear allegiance to him.

What do you imagine he may have promised them in return?

Nawaam's danger lies at the heart of what that may be.

Hmm.

I thought you said Dunbai used to be a Jedi.

Seems he's no more than a greedy merchant now.

Does this mean that he really isn't going to help us?

Who is this girl with you?

Lah Kara. She is Zhima's daughter.

So then he survived?

Yes. But he was abducted, likely on Nawaam's orders.

So you are traveling with Margrave Juro in search of your father, is that correct?

How brave of you.

We need your help. Please lend us your aid.

I fear, without it, I won't be able to find my father.

I'm sorry, but as I have already explained,

what matters most to me is protecting this planet and its people.

And so I cannot help you.

But you're not safe just sitting idly by.

I thought that once.

Until one day they came and took what matters most.

I'm sorry, I should not have spoken to you that way.

I apologize for speaking like that, Margrave Juro.

It's quite all right.

You have expressed my sentiments exactly.

Although there is one thing, Kara, you can just call me Juro, remember?

Yes, Juro.

It appears you and your friends have brought trouble to our door.

Hmm?

Did you think you could get away from me with that little stunt?

How naive of you, Jedi.

How'd they find us?

I thought we destroyed the tracker.

We did destroy it. When we arrived at the spaceport.

I wonder how he managed to escape the gravitational pull of the black hole.

Unfortunate, but very impressive.

Can you please stop praising him?

Excuse me, sir, we are receiving an incoming transmission.

It is from Nawaam's army.

I am Commander Gennoh of Nawaam's army.

We have been informed that you are harboring these seditious Jedi,

and we demand that you hand them over to us.

Well, I'm afraid I have received no reports

of any such Jedi hiding on this planet.

Isn't that right?

Have you no shame?

But even if they were here,

I would not be duty-bound to turn them over to your custody.

Might I remind you that Makoma Ko are a free city-state.

As such, we are not under the control of the Nawaam army.

And in terms of rival warlords we may be bound to, there are none.

You wretched cur.

Do you intend to defy General Nawaam?

And what is it that you intend?

Perhaps you intend to violate the autonomy of Makoma Ko.

Is he doing what I think he's doing?

'Cause it looks like he's helping us.

- No matter how stubborn Dunbai may be... - Hmm?

He is a man of high principle.

Very well, in that case, you shall die alongside your Jedi friends.

Bring the ground troops down,

burn the whole city and smoke out the Jedi.

And do not forget to take their lightsabers.

What is that?

- Here they come. - Oh, they're coming down!

They're landing!

Ready? Lure them closer.

This does not look good.

They're attacking everyone and everything in sight.

This is horrible.

Hold on, do you see our ship?

The ship's hidden. You're welcome.

Shall I come get you?

Yeah, but be careful, okay?

Even though we're outnumbered,

these droids are controlled by a central command unit.

If you take that out, they'll become nothing more than training dummies.

Wait. Are you seriously proposing that we directly infiltrate the enemy's ship?

Have you lost your mind?

The element of surprise is a basic principle of warfare.

Wouldn't you agree?

"It is better to take the right path than the straight one."

Don't worry. I haven't forgotten the basic principles of the Jedi's teachings.

Hey, Gramps is here.

Are you really planning on attempting this alone?

As you said, your role is to protect your city,

and in doing so, you will be attracting the enemy's attention.

Hmm?

You'll need it at a time like this.

So keep it.

Are you taking that child with you?

I told you already.

She's not just any girl.

She's the daughter of Lah Zhima.

Thank you for all your help.

You have nothing to worry about. We won't be reckless.

Hmm.

We have to get out of this system, now. It doesn't matter where to.

Where are we?

We're approximately five parsecs from Makoma Ko right now.

If we jump back there right now,

how close to the target will we be able to get?

Oh, my! You are proving to be just as reckless

as young Kara here, sir.

Gramps, we're gonna crash!

You were saying?

Impressive flying.

Our sole objective is that central droid control unit.

The enemy has infiltrated.

Combat has been detected on the third deck.

Their petty tricks just keep on coming.

Lord Dunbai.

Come with me.

Sir.

Hmm. Ah!

There. That path leads directly to the droid control center.

Don't be reckless.

I know.

And what business might you have in this room, little mouse?

Identify yourself.

Are you the one in charge of this vessel?

I am Gennoh Ikagi.

The commander of Nawaam's army.

Now you would do well to go to your death with honor and at my hand.

That's a lightsaber.

How do you have one of those?

Nobody but my father can craft them.

Your father?

Then you are Lah Zhima's daughter?

How do you know who my father is?

He is one of the General's closest collaborators.

And he has been very cordially received.

What are you saying?

You did well for a girl so young, but this is the end.

- I think I kept you busy long enough. - What?

I just needed to keep you distracted

so that my friend over there could stop your droids.

What was that?

With the droids deactivated, there's nobody to fly the ship.

Or did you not account for that?

Huh?

Tell me, what's your name, girl?

- Kara. - Hmm.

Lah Kara.

I will remember that for the next time we meet.

Huh?

I can't believe those guys actually pulled it off.

Quite impressive indeed.

Hmm?

He is one of the General's closest collaborators.

And he has been very cordially received.

Father... collaborating with Nawaam?

That's impossible.

He would never willingly work with men like him.

Never.

They may be gone for now, but this won't be the last we see of them.

Ah, but you forget. Makoma Ko is a free city-state

and we will yield to no one.

You're as stubborn as ever.

I could say the same of you.

Thanks for this.

However, I left behind the Jedi life long ago.

You're even more stubborn than I thought.

You don't have to go back to being a Jedi,

but I'm not taking that back either.

Keep it and use it to protect the people of this planet.

Hmm.

Emergency transmission from Gennoh.

Juro's group has struck down his ship.

Evacuation underway.

That Margrave Juro is formidable.

There is more.

Zhima's daughter is accompanying them.

She is attuned to the Force and not to be underestimated.

Lord Zhima, did you take your daughter as your Padawan?

She is the daughter of a sabersmith after all.

It's only natural that she's picked up a few things.

You toy with me at your own peril.

Look at you, one of the strongest of all the Jedi,

yet you still insist on calling yourself a mere sabersmith?

What? Of course I'm not scared.

I... I volunteered to do this after all.

You're sure about this?

This mission will be a dangerous one.

I'm sure. Just leave it to me.

It's okay. He'll have backup.

Four-Nines will be there to help if anything goes wrong.

So is this general really as great as everyone claims?

Hmm?

We'll know soon enough.

Does anyone else think it's strange

that we all follow a guy we don't know anything about?

I heard that if anyone can beat him,

he promised to give them control of his army.

Do we really think he's serious about that?

Why are you bringing that up?

I was just curious, that's all.

I am serious.

I do not request your loyalty.

If any of you can kill me, you may become general in my stead.

However, until that happens,

I am in command and you will follow my orders.

That is the deal.

Did you want to challenge me?

How about you, masterless Jedi?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

You came to investigate my army, did you not?

Did you think you would go unnoticed?

Uh...

That's a good point. Yeah.

Juro's been looking for masterless Jedi

and there's a chance that he could be one of them.

Hey, you. You a spy or something?

You know, I bet he thinks he's better than us.

Huh. Not half bad.

Agreed. You are quite skilled.

However, with no lightsaber,

I suppose that spear is a more suitable weapon than a blaster.

I had really hoped that it would not need to come to this.

However, there's no point anymore.

This is a great opportunity.

Now I can simply fight you.

Tell me your name.

I will not give my name to a tyrant.

How noble of you.

It's blue.

Is Nawaam a Jedi?

How?
