Padawan Reath Silas is being sent from the cosmopolitan galactic capital of Coruscant to the undeveloped frontier-and he couldn't be less happy about it. He'd rather stay at the Jedi Temple, studying the archives. But when the ship he's traveling on is knocked out of hyperspace in a galactic-wide disaster, Reath finds himself at the center of the action. The Jedi and their traveling companions find refuge on what appears to be an abandoned space station. But then strange things start happening, leading the Jedi to investigate the truth behind the mysterious station, a truth that could end in tragedy...

In "Star Wars The High Republic: Into the Dark" by Claudia Gray, the glorious era of the High Republic reaches its zenith, where the Jedi are revered as guardians of peace and justice. Yet, even amidst this golden age, shadows lurk.

In the remote Starlight Beacon, a symbol of the Republic's unity and strength, a sinister plot unfolds. A mysterious illness, the Nihil plague, strikes the station, cutting off communications and threatening to shatter the foundations of the Republic. With each passing moment, the darkness encroaches, and the Jedi face a trial unlike any they have encountered before.

Jedi Master Loden Greatstorm and Padawan Keeve Trennis find themselves at the heart of this unfolding catastrophe. As they delve deeper into the depths of the Nihil plague, they uncover a conspiracy of unimaginable scale. A shadowy group seeks to twist the Force for their malevolent purposes, threatening to plunge the galaxy into chaos and destruction.

Keeve, with her growing connection to the Force, becomes entangled in a dangerous web of visions and prophecies. She faces her inner demons and struggles to control the power within her, as the darkness threatens to consume her. Meanwhile, Loden, a steadfast sentinel of the Republic, must make agonizing choices as the line between duty and survival blurs.

As the Jedi confront the encroaching darkness, they are tested to their limits. Loyalties are questioned, alliances are forged, and sacrifices must be made. The destiny of the High Republic hangs in the balance as the Jedi strive to extinguish the Nihil plague, expose the insidious plot, and restore light to the galaxy.
