| Dr. Lundi's an eccentric professor who's loved by students and peers alike; his specialty: sith history. Almost from the first moment, Qui-Gon Jinn and eighteen-year-old Obi-wan Kenobi are confused as to what they're actually seeking but soon they find out it's a Sith Holocron. The Jedi team follows Dr. Lundi to track down a Sith Holocron. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon meet with fierce resistence from the sith followers, some of whom are Lundi's students. Obi-wan struggles with his anger and fear as well as battling those trying to kill him.
The chase leads from Nolar to Kolari, a watery world where every ten years there's an especially low tide. They finally capture Lundi on Kolari, but the Holocron remains lost. Ten years pass and the tide will be low again soon. Dr. Lundi has lost his mind, yet the Jedi must turn to him for guidance to find the missing Holocron. It is very important that the Jedi recover the ancient artifact of the dark side. Obi-Wan and his young, thirteen-year-old apprentice, Anakin Skywalker are still having a bit of a tense relationship. Anakin is resourceful and bright and quick as a student, but there's still that anger and fear buried in him. Norval, one of Lundi's old students finally tracks down the Holocron. Anakin and Obi-Wan chase him down and corner him on his own ship. After a battle, Obi-Wan recovers the Holocron and Norval's hidden friend fires upon his ship, killing the young man. Obi-Wan and Anakin return to Coruscant with the Holocron. | ||
