Fleeing from Daiyu aboard an automated cargo freighter, Obi-Wan finds himself on the receiving end of questions from Leia about the Force. They arrive on a planet in the Mapuzo system, heavily mined by the Empire, where Haja said help would be waiting, though the exact coordinates are behind an Imperial checkpoint, and Obi-Wan’s furtive behavior is enough to raise suspicion and start a firefight. When a second contingent of stormtroopers arrives, they are cut down by blaster fire from their own commanding officer, Tala, who is the contact Obi-Wan and Leia have been looking for. Tala introduces them to the Path, a clandestine network of waypoints and safe houses that have been used to conceal surviving members of the Jedi order. But before they can leave, a new Imperial presence arrives – the Inquisitors and Darth Vader himself, making a spectacle of tormenting to locals in order to draw Obi-Wan out. He tells Leia to go to the next transport on her own, and charges Tala with ensuring the girl’s safety. Obi-Wan sets out to distract Vader from the girl, but even with that as his only goal, the confrontation does not go well for the out-of-practice Jedi. Reva, in the meantime, having engineered her ascension within the ranks of the Inquisitors, finds that her “sisters” and “brothers” are not as accepting of her tactics.
