Princess Leia, the sick Mara Jade Skywalker and her apprentice Jaina Solo are on a diplomatic mission to Rhommamool and Osarian to meet with Nom Anor. As they arrive in the system, they are attacked by fighters from Osarian, and Jedi Wurth Skidder intervenes, killing a couple of them before they retreat. On Coruscant, Luke Skywalker takes his apprentice Jacen Solo and meets with the New Republic Advisory Council to discuss the possibility of re-convening the Jedi Council, with mixed results. At the ExGal facility on the planet Belkadan, Yomin Carr sees evidence of a long expected incursion from beyond the galactic rim, and notifies Nom Anor that the invasion has begun. The scientists track the object from the rim to the fourth planet in the Helska system, expecting an amazing crash followed by the destruction of the planet. When this doesn't happen, they send an expedition to see what they can find out. On Rhommamool, the diplomatic talks never really start, as Nom Anor isn't really interested in discussing anything, and as Leia, Mara and Jaina leave they are detoured through an open square where droids are brutally destroyed every day. Back on Coruscant, Luke and Han Solo decide that they are going to take a brief vacation out to Dubrillion to see Lando and his new operation when Leia and Mara return, hoping to get some insight on how to sway the minds of several Council members. On the fourth planet of the Helska system, Prefect Da'Gara of the Yuuzhan Vong has established his forward base with his yammosk (war coordinator) and has begun a covert attack on the planet Sernpidal, when the ExGal expedition arrives and is shot down, with all but Danni Quee being killed. Luke and his team arrive at Dubrillion and meet with Lando, where he shows them his game where pilots navigate the asteroid field in modified ships in order to see who can last the longest before being pushed out of the field. Predictably, Han Solo's children all want to try, and they all make the top ten, and Jaina takes the top spot by a very large margin. Han and Chewbacca then take a turn in the two-seater version, and barely escape with their lives when the shielding ship fails. They are found by Luke and return to base where Lando asks their help in dropping off supplies at Sernpidal. While everyone is still there, they receive a message from Kyp Durron, telling them that there may be a problem at Belkadan, while he and his squadron investigate Helska 4. They are surprised and overwhelmed by the Yuuzhan Vong coralskippers, and his squadron is completely wiped out, while he manages to escape before his ship is destroyed. Han, Chewbacca and Anakin travel to Sernpidal where they discover that the moon Dobido is on a collision course with the planet, so they begin an evacuation. Anakin finds the Vong creature that is causing the problem, and the leader of Sernpidal destroys it, but it is too late, nothing can stop the moon now. Luke and Mara go to Belkadan where they discover that the planet is no longer able to support human life, and as they are trying to determine what happened there, Yomin Carr attacks R2-D2 and Mara. Mara fights him off and kills him with great difficulty as her illness seems to be acting up more than normal, and they discover where the ExGal scientists went, so they go to Helska-4 as well. After an encounter with the Yuuzhan Vong, they manage to escape and return to Dubrillion, where they discuss options for learning more about the invasion force. On Sernpidal everyone who wants to go has been evacuated, and Han Chewie and Anakin are getting ready to leave when Anakin sees a small child that is stuck. He and Chewie rush to save the child, but as they are getting back on the ship, the planet begins to quake around them as Dobido begins its final descent. Chewie throws Anakin aboard the Millennium Falcon, when an earthquake causes him to disappear from sight. Anakin rushes to pilot while Han tries to find Chewie before it is too late. Anakin waits as long as he dares, but eventually he has to leave so that everyone else doesn't die and as they are leaving, Han sees Chewbacca one last time, screaming defiance at the moon that is coming down. They begin their trip back to Dubrillion and they find Kyp Durron limping into the system. Rescuing him, they encounter a small Vong attack force that chases them all the way back to Dubrillion, where they are defeated after heavy losses. Luke finds an ice-borer ship and his intention is to return to Helska-4 and learn the truth of what is going on, but Jaina and Jacen decide they should go instead. Jacen successfully penetrates the planet, and a New Republic attack force enters the system shortly behind the twins. As the battle rages in space, Jacen finds Danni Quee and Jedi Knight Miko Reglia. With the help of Miko, who sacrifices himself, they manage to escape as the New Republic warship is destroyed utterly. With the knowledge that the yammosk is coordinating everything from below the ice, Lando produces 6 shieldships from his Nkllon operation, and they assault the Vong again. This time, the shieldships redirect the energy of the yammosk back at the planet, freezing the planet before it is stopped. The Republic has won this battle, but at a terrible price to those involved.
