Opening crawl[]

Nearly a thousand years have passed since the Jedi
defeated the evil Sith to end their centuries-long war.
Prosperity has come to much of the Galactic Republic.

At the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, the Jedi now train their
Padawan students in the ways of the Force under the
guidance of the Jedi Council.

Despite the current galactic peace, trouble can still come
- in many different forms, to any of the thousands of
worlds that make up the Republic. It is the duty of the Jedi
Knights to answer whenever they are called upon, to
address conflicts throughout the galaxy.

Although it is long believed that the Sith have been wiped
out for good, the Jedi Council is ever-watchful for signs of
the dark side of the Force. But they are unaware of a
Phantom Menace lurking in their midst....
