A Galactic Threat Emerges from the Shadows
In the uneasy cold war between the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire, veteran pirate Jet Nebula stumbles upon something extraordinary-the deliberate self-destruction of a light cruiser named Cinzia. The explosion leaves behind unusual debris marked with mysterious hexagonal patterns. This simple act of opportunistic salvage triggers a chain reaction that will force sworn enemies to question everything they believe. News of the salvage spreads with alarming speed. On Coruscant, eighteen-year-old Jedi apprentice Shigar Konshi encounters a heavily armed Mandalorian warrior searching for information about the Cinzia. Meanwhile, in Sith space, ambitious apprentice Eldon Ax discovers a shocking truth-the Cinzia wasn't just another Republic vessel; it was named after her birth identity, and its captain was her long-lost mother. The scattered pieces of this cosmic puzzle violently converge when Hutt crime lord Tassaa Bareesh announces an auction for the Cinzia's navigational data, revealing coordinates to an unmapped resource-rich world. What begins as a tense diplomatic gathering rapidly descends into chaos when mysterious hexagonal droids emerge, displaying combat capabilities far beyond known technology. Their unified broadcast is chilling: "We do not recognize your authority!"-a declaration hinting at an artificial intelligence far older and more dangerous than anyone anticipated.
