However, the path to this great goal was crossed by a more than worthy opponent - Republic agent Theron Shen, who has a long-standing score to settle with the Empire. The clash between these two extraordinary personalities could radically change the course of the current war. Shen may not have mastery of the Force, but he has inherited the rebellious spirit of his mother, the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order, and besides, this is not the first time he has disrupted the Empire’s plans to create a superweapon. Therefore, it is he who is entrusted by the Order with a dangerous task - to track down and destroy the Spear of Power. On this mission, Theron will be joined by the dashing smuggler Teff'it and the Jedi Master Nost-Dural, who was once the mentor of Darth Karrid. Together, they must face off against a battle-hardened team of the darkest side's coldest followers. Time is running out, there is only one chance of victory, but there are thousands of disastrous paths…
