A Chosen One shall come, born of no father, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored.
Throughout the galaxy, many had heard the prophecy of the Chosen One. Since the discovery of Anakin Skywalker, a majority of the Jedi Order w...

Jedi Temple, Coruscant, 7957 C.RC
Weeks passed since their little adventure on Mortis. Kaia continued to ponder over the meaning of everything that happened there but made sure to focus more on the present than the past. Practising with her dual lightsabers proved to be a welcomed distraction for her and while it took some time getting used to swinging two full-sized lightsabers, it was definitely worth it.
The battles continued as the Republic and the Separatists fought for who'd control over the galaxy. In an attempt to tip the scale in favour of the Republic, Master Piell was sent out on a perilous assignment in the Outer Rim seeking vital information about secret hyperspace lanes called the Nexus Route. Unfortunately, the Jedi Master was caught by the Separatists on his way back to Coruscant.
Since they needed the information he carried, Piell had been taken alive to the deadly prison known as the Citadel. Alongside Obi-Wan, Anakin and Master Plo, Kaia was now preparing herself for a stealth mission into the heart of Separatist space in an effort to rescue Master Piell.
"As you are aware, the Citadel is their most isolated and impenetrable detention facility," Master Plo said as an image of the Citadel appeared in front of them as a hologram. Built on the volcanic and sulphurous planet Lola Sayu, the Citadel sat on a bridge between two yellow lavalakes. Its front section sticking out over the lava, the back giving out to the prison's landing field, which was protected by fences and security emplacements. "No one has ever escaped."
"There is a first time for everything," Anakin said from where he stood beside Kaia.
"Indeed, there is," Obi-Wan agreed.
"Their security has prevented our probes from obtaining recent reconnaissance, so we've been forced to construct a crude map based upon data from the archives," Plo-Koon said and the hologram changed to display a map of the Citadel's inner structure.
"Great, I love old maps," Kaia said drily. "It means more exciting surprises."
"So we are essentially going in blind," Anakin concluded.
"Beg your pardon, General," Rex said, attending the meeting in hologram-form while Fives and Echo — the recently promoted ARC-troopers stood behind him, "but how do we know Master Piell is still alive?"
"The Separatists won't dare to kill Master Piell until they have what they need," Obi-Wan said.
"He obtained the coordinates of a secret hyperspace lane known as the Nexus Route," Plo-Koon explained, "which travels into the heart of both the Republic and Separatist homeworlds."
