Synopsis:
Though the New Republic is thriving, there are still many who remain true to the spirit and evil designs of Emperor Palpatine. So when Luke Skywalker, the New Republic's greatest hero and sole Jedi master, decides to marry Mara Jade, the woman who was formerly Emperor Palpatine's personal assassin and executor of the Empire's will, you can be sure that somebody is going to raise their hands in protest!
As the wedding approaches, Luke Skywalker has a troubling vision: somewhere in their future, a dark hand is grasping at him and his new wife, Mara Jade. But nothing can shake the young Jedi Knight's resolve, not a solemn ceremony of Jedi accepting the Union, nor even a night of carousing and revelry deep within the city canyons of Coruscant.
As Luke and Mara gather their friends about them and prepare to share their vows, another vow is also closer to being fulfilled: Imperial Moff Takkar pledges the destruction of this wedding, a travesty and an insult to the memory of the once-great Empire!
Wedding Day! But as the guests are taking their places, the Imperial's disruption of the festivities begins! Swoop riders are raiding the building and a madman with a vest-full of explosives is threatening to take the entire building down! Who can save the saviours of the galaxy?
