In the new novelThe Living Forceby John Jackson Miller , the total Jedi Council decides to visit one of the largest Jedi frontier settlement on the Mid Rim world of Kwenn .

What ’s the best way to watch out Star Wars ? Here ’s everything you need to know to watch in button or timeline order , and how to let in the TV show .
Palpatine Successfully Infiltrated The Jedi Order
Agents And Informants Reporting In Secret
As see inThe Living Force , the Jedi outstation on Kwenn know as Sanctuary Mount had long been cared for by the elderly Seneschal Voh , despite the fact that visit from the Jedi had become increasingly uncommon preceding the Jedi Council ’s alone visit . Although Voh had been a dutiful and truehearted caretaker , he did discover the Jedi Council ’s ultimate conclusion to open up the frontier settlement to all thee people of Kwenn distasteful , feeling as though it mitigated his yr of military service ( though the Jedi had assumed that he was seek retreat ) .
Although each member of the Jedi Council establish newfangled ways to help individual on Kwenn , Voh ’s situation was regrettably overlooked . Furthermore , one of the book ’s terminal chapters break thatVoh had long been encounter with none other than Senator Palpatine , who ’d taken a keen interest in Voh and his library on Sanctuary Mount . Palpatine had even convert Voh to send him Jedi record and forbidden tome via hush-hush methods that would get away the notice of the rarely present Jedi .
Voh is hardly the only agent Palpatine had at his disposal . Another one of Palpatine ’s informants named Heezoworked as a droid technician within the walls of the Jedi Temple itself . Not only did Heezo secretly account on the Jedi ’s traffic to Palpatine , but he also pinpointed key member of the Jedi Order who ’d be ripe for succeeding corruption ( many of whom would become Palpatine ’s Imperial Inquisitors ) . As such , Palaptine distinctly had sight of agent and informants work out for him against the Jedi Order ( both call and nameless ) .

Darth Maul Used The Dark Side… With No Fear Of The Entire Jedi Council
In Close Proximity To Major Jedi Masters (Including Yoda)
Palpatine determine via holo - recording at the goal ofThe Living Forcethat he no longer has a use for Seneschal Voh . Noting the caretaker ’s old age , Palpatine is also displeased that Voh left an evidence trail that could have lead back to Palpatine himself and the thieving of Jedi record hadEeth Kothonly calculate deeper into the outpost library ’s miss item . As such , Palpatine orders none other than Darth Maul to kill Voh , his Sith apprentice who was physically on Kwenn . Not only that , but Maul also used the obscure side of the Force before killing the seneschal .
What makes this move so surprising is that while most of theJedi Council had already departed Kwenn , Darth Maul used the dark side of the Force while Qui - Gon Jinn , Obi - Wan Kenobi , and even Yoda were still on Kwenn ( and nearby ) . With a ticket to Corellia in Voh ’s name having been found by Yoda , it ’s made to appear as though the seneschal took his assumed retirement . In verity , Palpatine and his Sith apprentice took a major risk considering all that had happened with the Jedi Council , having reignite a novel hope for Kwenn ( and preventing a monolithic pirate insurrection ) .
Both Sith Lords were incredibly bluff in their military action a twelvemonth beforeThe Phantom Menace . They could have very well been caught despite their years operate in the phantom of theStar Warscanon . That said , it does point to the Jedi Order ’s develop pridefulness and hubris onward of the prequel trilogy , despite all the literal good the Jedi Council was able to achieve in John Jackson Miller ’s exciting newStar Warsnovel .
