A small strike force of Rebels, including Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, arrive on war-torn and ecologically devastated Jabiim with the intent of helping the Jabiimi Royalists to break the Imperial stranglehold on their planet. All is going well until Luke is introduced by name, which sets off the Jabiimi people: they still remember Anakin Skywalker leaving them to the Separatist forces nearly twenty years before. The rebel team is imprisoned by the Royalists who intend to punish Luke for the sins of his father. The Royalist leader is able to save Luke from a dire fate shortly before the base is attacked by the Jabiimi Nationalist forces assisted by the Empire. With some help from one of the Royalists, Leia, Captain Dantels, and Jorin Sol escape from captivity. Leia and Dantels make it back to their ship, but Hesz and Jorin are captured by Imperial forces and taken to Darth Vader's flagship. The Empire enslaves the Jabiimi workforce and the majority of the Rebel strike force escape, setting the stage for the events of "The Wrong Side Of the War".

Two of the main players in this story, Luke Skywalker and Nolan Gillmunn, are plagued by the actions and choices of their fathers twenty years before. They need to overcome the inertia of an entire people by reacting to the effects of their father's choices, and they both do that in different ways, with the same result. Luke is forced to abandon the Jabiimi people just as his father was, but their own choices made this parting of ways much more amicable than that of their fathers years ago.
