However, when he realizes his old master is in trouble, the orders of the Jedi Council won’t stop him from rushing to help-even if doing so puts the entire Republic at risk. While attempting to balance his responsibilities to the Jedi with his desire to spend time with his new wife, Anakin finds himself forging a surprising bond with a conflicted youngling. Meanwhile, the newly knighted (and secretly married) Anakin Skywalker is facing his first mission without his former master, and it involves something far scarier than the Separatists: Jedi Younglings. Working with a Nemoidian guard more interested in the truth than in politics, Obi-Wan discovers a cunning plot buried in the mists of the planet but soon finds himself staring down the barrel of more trouble than he can handle. Leaning into his abilities as a diplomat, Obi-Wan manages to persuade the Neimoidian government to allow him to travel to the planet alone as an ambassador for the Republic and investigate the crime himself, along with an ambassador for the Separatists: Asajj Ventress. A terrorist attack has just occurred on Cato Nemoidia, killing and injuring thousands on the planet which has so far remained neutral in the Clone Wars, and now the Republic is being blamed.

The story it tells is set shortly after Attack of the Clones, during the very early stages of the Clone Wars.
