The debut of Star Wars: The High RepublicA series set 200 years before the events in the film A New Hope, which not only brings innovative elements to the expanded universe of work created by George Lucas, has recently revealed the presence of a weapon with impressive strategic potential.
The relevant object is called Path engineand it is a device that allows you to perform hyperspace travel. It was introduced in the current Doctor Aphra series and appears to have also influenced events during the Age of Rebellion in some wayespecially during the devastating civil war.
In the High Republic the main focus was on the construction of the areas on the outer edge of the foreign republic Station called Starlight Beacon. This is a very important event, but it is interrupted by a disaster that hit hyperspace and is now threatening every nearby planet and system. While many Jedi have an obligation to save as many innocent people as possible, just as many perceive the presence of new enemies: i Nihil.
They are a society of space robbers who live by the following pirate code: Respect the power and loot everything you can. Another interesting aspect of this particular company is the presence of a device that is characterized by a very advanced technology, namely the Path Engine it enables them to move quickly through hyperspaceand counter or catch up with enemy forces in no time. At the end of the messages there is a table showing the device.
In the novel Light of the Jedi, also set in the era of the High Republic, the attack of the Nihil and the Eye or Marchion Ro, turns out to be more dangerous than expected considering these creatures managed to kill a Jedi Master during face-to-face confrontation. Remember, a famous character appeared in the first volume, and we will let you find out how a young Jedi perceives Power.
