A Stab at the Heart
May 04, 2005

Insulated in the heart of the Core, enveloped by defensive barriers and formidable bulwarks, the citizens of Coruscant thought themselves untouchable by the horrors of war. Sure, transmissions from the unruly Outer Rim broadcast the violence and tragedy from the Republic's most distant and contentious worlds, but that was so far away...

As the audacious General Grievous proved, nowhere was safe. With a lightning strike that penetrated Coruscant's defenses, Grievous not only stabbed at the heart of the Republic, but he plucked it out. The droid general kidnapped the revered Chancellor Palpatine from his very quarters. An immense battle erupted in the skies of Coruscant, ensnaring thousands of warships -- but the outcome of this pivotal operation rested in the skills of two daring Jedi, each aboard a tiny starfighter, racing to their objective and trusting in the Force.
