ES IST NICHT LEICHT, EIN PADAWAN ZU SEIN ... Obi-Wan Kenobi ist noch nicht lange bei seinem Meister Qui-Gon Jinn in der Ausbildung - doch schon jetzt fragt er sich, ob es nicht ein riesiger Fehler war. Obi-Wan ist ein hervorragender Lichtschwertkämpfer, aber Qui-Gon möchte sich lieber auf die Meditation konzentrieren. Während andere Padawane ihren Meistern auf aufregende Missionen außerhalb des Planeten folgen, bleiben Qui-Gon und Obi-Wan auf Coruscant zurück. Dann entdeckt Obi-Wan auf einem geheimnisvollen Planeten Hinweise auf unerledigte Jedi- Angelegenheiten und überzeugt Qui-Gon, dass sie der Sache nachgehen sollten. Doch als der Zeitpunkt zum Aufbruch gekommen ist, ist Qui-Gon nirgends zu finden. Wütend macht sich Obi-Wan allein auf den Weg und ist fest entschlossen, die Mission zu erfüllen. Auf dem Planeten Lenahra trifft Obi-Wan auf eine Gruppe junger Menschen, die alle scheinbar die Macht nutzen und auch die einzigen Bewohner des Planeten sind. Je mehr Zeit er mit ihnen verbringt und je weiter er sich von seinem Leben im Jedi-Tempel entfernt, desto mehr ringt Obi-Wan mit seiner größten Angst: Vielleicht war er gar nicht dazu bestimmt, ein Jedi zu werden. Und doch wird er das nagende Gefühl nicht los, dass auf Lenahra irgendetwas Merkwürdiges vor sich geht. Kann Obi-Wan seine Verbindung zur Macht rechtzeitig wiederfinden, um sich und alle um ihn herum zu retten?
