Centuries before the Clone Wars or the Empire, it is a dangerous time for the galaxy, and the Jedi of the High Republic must face their greatest trials yet…. The villainous Nihil control an area of space known as the Occlusion Zone, where no one is safe, least of all Jedi. One of the Jedi stuck behind enemy lines is Padawan Ram Jomaram, doing his best to help the people of his home planet, Valo, survive Nihil occupation while keeping his Jedi identity hidden. When Ram discovers a trio of young Jedi living in the ruins of the city zoo, he finds himself in a position he never could have imagined: leader. Ram and the others will have to band together to face their fears and protect the people of Valo as only the Jedi can!
