With Anakin Skywalker’s help, the Jedi escape Peridea, only to discover that Abeloth and the Dathomirian witches have also fled, forming an alliance with Crime Lords to destroy both the Jedi Order and the New Republic. Chaos spreads across the galaxy as Abeloth consumes entire planets, including Lothal and Moraband, growing more powerful with each life-force she drains. The Jedi, realizing they cannot defeat her directly, focus on evacuating citizens and creating underground networks to reach the sentient planet Zonama Sekot, hoping its living presence will distract Abeloth from harming the innocent. Meanwhile, Grand Master Luke Skywalker searches the Sacred Jedi texts for a solution, desperate for any clue to stop her. Unbeknownst to him, Kira Skywalker, his daughter, understands that Abeloth is specifically targeting the Skywalker lineage. In a selfless act, Kira considers sacrificing herself to Abeloth, believing her surrender may protect countless systems and offer the galaxy a chance to survive against this unprecedented threat.
