❶ During the next four months, every Jedi Knight remained busy on missions for the Senate except for Naluma and the two knights assigned to the academy. Luke's plan to keep either Kalder or himself at the academy collapsed as the Republic demanded both Jedi Masters on non-stop missions.
As the First Order grew in strength, more systems defected from the Republic. Some systems believed that a more structured governing body would solve their problems, while others succumbed to their fears.
More children disappeared, stolen from Outer Rim worlds. Sometimes even entire planets were enslaved. And the Republic couldn't stop them. The Jedi rescued a few, but many slipped through their fingers.
As a result, Luke spent more hours in his T-65 X-wing chasing shadows than he had in the past five years combined. After six weeks of travel, he was home but distracted. His mind focused on the number of systems pulling out of the Republic, the military resources the First Order was amassing, the children they couldn't save, and the growing animosity toward the Jedi Order.
As Naluma and Luke snuggled up on the leather couch in their study, they prowled through the reports from the various Jedi knights. Luke asked, "Have you got the one from Zeke? About the Denon System? I can't find it."
Naluma scrolled through her folders looking for the report. "It's here. Someone filed it under the Corellian trade route."
"Does it mention anything about occupation of the system?"
"No, just that First Order representatives have been making overtures to the governing body on planet." Naluma shook her head.
"Any reports of children missing?"
She shook her head. "Not anything more than usual for a planet." She set her datapad aside and ran her hand through his hair gently. "Luke, do you have to do this now?"
Luke shrugged her off. "Yes, I do. I think I'm onto something. Can you check out the rest of that trade route?"
Naluma picked up her datapad again, looking for the rest of the systems on that trade route. "Tinnel, Loronar, and Byblos never became Republican systems. They are actually still under the old Imperial charters. Seno is under attack. Denon is in negotiations. Spirana has received overtures from the First Order. So has Rhommamool."
