Plot summary[]

THE HIGH REPUBLIC
CHILDREN OF THE STORM
CHAPTER 4: INTO THE OCCLUSION ZONE

Having stopped the threat of a potential Nihil/Hutt
alliance, Jedi Master Keeve Trennis recovered the
lost Jedi cruiser ''Ataraxia'' from her old enemy,
Lourna Dee.

Ordered to Coruscant by Elzar Mann, Keeve and
troubled Kotabi bond twins, Ceret and Terec,
decided to follow their own path, taking the
''Ataraxia'' and Lourna Dee across the Stormwall into
the Nihil Occlusion Zone.

Their mission: to locate and rescue Trandoshan Jedi
Sskeer, previously thought killed but now rumored
to be operating within the zone.

Their only problem? The rumors also suggest that
Sskeer has gone rogue….?
