Plot summary[]

THE HIGH REPUBLIC
CHILDREN OF THE STORM
CHAPTER 3: THE TAKING OF THE ATARAXIA

Hostilities between the Republic and the Hutt Cartel
have temporarily ceased now that Hutt Administrator
Skarabda has attacked and killed an envoy of the
fledging Nihil regime.

Former Nihil Tempest Runner LOURNA DEE is now on
the run from the Republic and the Hutts, trying to
escape on board the stolen Jedi cruiser, ''Ataraxia''.

But working with Hutt skiff-fighters, the Defense
Coalition starcuiser ''Gios'' is moving to intercept
before Dee can jump to hyperspace, with Jedi
Master Keeve Trennis leading the charge.

But is Keeve distracted by the revelation that her
former master Sskeer might still be alive on the other
side of the Nihil's impenetrable stormwall….?
