Sirrakuk slipped back out of the sleek ship and stood watching as the
craft prepared to depart. Within moments the Shadow Chaser rose up on
its repulsorhfts, bearing its message of warning to Luke Skywalker and
his Jedi academy.
"We've just sent the alert to Yavin 4, but now we have to go," Jaina

Victory means a new legacy of jedi coming of age.
Defeat means a final cloak of darkness over the entire galaxy . . .
