The story is set in the pre-Clone Wars era of the Star Wars galaxy: the time of the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order–when the Jedi are still the guardians of peace and justice.
The series pairs familiar Jedi (such as Qui‑Gon Jinn, Obi‑Wan Kenobi, Yoda and Mace Windu) with new Jedi characters on distinct missions.
Major story threads
