Publisher's summary[]

A massive, interconnected cross-publisher initiative focused on an all-new era of Star Wars storytelling.

It is the era of the High Republic and Republic expansion is at its height. As trusted guardians of peace, the renowned Jedi protect the Republic and shine their light on those exploring the darkest reaches of the galaxy.

The destruction of Starlight Beacon also destroys the peace once protected by the great Jedi of the High Republic Era. In the year since Jedi Knight Lily Tora-Asi defied the Council's order to return to Coruscant, the Nihil continued to storm through the galaxy, advancing in from the Outer Rim and expanding their territory. Despite the encroaching Stormwall, Lily stands her ground and reestablishes Banchii's Jedi Temple. Banchii is not to be abandoned and its long held secrets begin to unfurl as Jedi Master Arkoff returns to connect the pieces to a mystery long buried.

Plot summary[]

Opening crawl[]

Worlds suffer inside the formidable
OCCLUSION ZONE, where Marchion Ro
and his band of Nihil marauders,
untouchable by the Republic, rule with
an iron fist.

Jedi Master Avar Kriss has escaped
from this occupied space and, along
with fellow Jedi Elzar Mann, leads the
Jedi and Republic in a desperate fight
against the Nihil and their Nameless
creatures.

But a new danger now threatens the
galaxy. A mysterious BLIGHT has begun
to spread randomly across worlds,
slowly infecting areas and turning all life
in its path to dust….
