His way, but even they may not be enough against Ro and the ancient Only the brave Jedi Knights of STARLIGHT BEACON stand in Will be triumphant, and the light of the Jedi will go dark.

Jedi Master AVAR KRISS has her sights set on LOURNA DEE, the ![]() With these vicious raiders all but defeated, The Jedi and the Republic have gone on the offensive to stop The tragic events of the Republic Fair have galvanized the Marchion Ro, the true mastermind of the Nihil, is preparing his most daring attack yet-one designed to snuff out the light of the Jedi. But the storm they thought had passed still rages they are simply caught in its eye. The grateful Knights and Padawans of the Jedi Order stationed there finally have a chance to recover-from the pain of their injuries and the grief of their losses. As survivors and refugees flee the Nihil's attacks, the Beacon and its crew stand ready to shelter and heal. Hanging like a jewel in the Outer Rim, the Beacon embodies the High Republic at the apex of its aspirations: a hub of culture and knowledge, a bright torch against the darkness of the unknown, and an extended hand of welcome to the furthest reaches of the galaxy. Time and again, the High Republic has emerged battered and weary, but victorious thank to its Jedi protectors-and there is no monument to their cause grander than the Starlight Beacon. Time and again, the vicious raiders known as the Nihil have sought to bring the golden age of the High Republic to a fiery end. Spoiler alert.In this gripping sequel to Star Wars: The Rising Storm, the light of the Jedi faces its darkest hour. Who will be involved in this task force? Will Jedi be included? If so, will we meet new Jedi or will some of the ones we've come to recently know and love be on the mission? And I'm definitely stoked for more Joss and Pikka Adren!! With all the stories up until this point rotating very closely around the events of the Legacy Run Disaster, I am raring to go for moving forward with the overall High Republic plot and this sounds like a solid direction to take!!īe on the lookout Friday for my review of Claudia Gray's young adult novel Into the Dark-which still rotates around the Legacy Run Disaster albeit loosely. So now we know that a task force is being put together to seek out the Nihil. You two improvised strategies to save lives during the Legacy Run disaster, and then you figured out a way, on the fly, to survive completely new enemy tactics during the Battle of Kur." This totally seems like a move Kronara would make and I am so here for it!! Well, their future actually holds a LOT of promise as Admiral Kronara himself seeks them out and offers them a job in his new task force to hunt down any remaining Nihil!! He tells them, "You're innovative and brilliant. ![]() As the two leave the debriefing they wonder what in the world their future holds. The "flunkies" of the Republic Defense Coalition are aghast at this information and want to punish Joss and Pikka. By doing so, she was able to uncouple the thrusters from each other and operate each one of them manually as independent systems thus allowing the ship to maneuver far beyond its supposed capabilities. Turns out Pikka's quite the slicer and broke into the security systems on their Longbeam's operational code.something extremely punishable. Although I either forgot this part or it wasn't included in Light of the Jedi explicitly, but the Adrens apparently fought in the Battle of Kur and fought valiantly.and survived at that! They were called to the meeting to discuss just how they were capable of doing what they did. We find the couple as they are attending an unexpected meeting of all the most important people in the Galaxy-I'm talking Chancellor Lina Soh, Jedi Master Avar Kriss, and Admiral Pevel Kronara among others. I certainly enjoyed Part One of the tale from the last issue of the "Star Wars Insider" but this Part Two was simply spectacular and shows just how incredibly bada** Pikka and Joss Adren really are!! ![]() Pikka adren full#In this short story, we finally get an idea of where things are going to go from here within the High Republic era and I couldn't be more excited!! The bulk of the story was light on action and heavy on explanation, but that explanation just so happened to involve the Battle of Kur from Light of the Jediand it was full of intrigue and mystery! Being written by Charles Soule, I shouldn't be surprised that the story flowed super well and was written with aplomb. ![]()
