Set 5 years after The Rise of Skywalker, Rey, with the guidance of Luke Skywalker, is rebuilding the Jedi. Not as light side gatekeepers, but as force users, welcoming the dark and the light, learning to use these powers for good without loosing connection to what makes them alive. Rey starts to build a temple on the distant planet Reamok, wanting to leave behind planets known for their connections to the force, starting a new connection, a balanced one. Rey struggles as she learns how to become a master of new Jedi, while Luke comes to terms in his afterlife with the mistakes he made in the past. Former Jedi Knight and friend of Luke, Kyle Katarn and his former Padawan, resurface in the wake of the New Jedi order. The New Republic is forming once again under the leadership of Chancellor Jannix, a fair and respected figure. Small remnants of the First Order led by a General Kormac attempts to hunt down and eliminate Rey and her new Jedi students.
