Jedi Knight Vildar Mac and Padawan Matthea Cathley investigate missing Force artifacts on Jedha and stumble into a mystery.
Cavan Scott’s The High Republic comics make their return with volume two. In this story, the action focuses on events that take place 150 years prior to volume one. Jedi Knight Vildar Mac is haunted by memories of a dark side Force user that slaughtered Kiffar in his village when he was a child. When he gets to the Holy City on Jedha, he meets Padawan Matthea Cathley and is drawn into an investigation concerning missing Force artifacts. The more they look into this matter, the more mysterious things get. Jedha is a hotbed of Force related activity. Can Vildar and Matthea wrap up their investigation before the situation explodes?
