Mission to Karzonis: A Thirst for Vengeance
After the launch of the Heart of the Void, Nadia Grell was selected for her first mission alone. She would be sent to the world of Karzonis, an industrial hub home to a corrupt government and hordes of Dark Jedi. Still unsure of her complete mastery of the Force, Orono protested vehemently. The other Jedi took drastic actions to keep him from joining Nadia, impounding his ship and confiscating his lightsaber. However this would only delay what was to come. While Nadia initially decimated the forces there, Governor Hyrkis came to oppose her. A demented madman with a great deal of strength in the Force, he came at Nadia with every power he knew. It was here Orono intervened. In a rage, he wrenched his lightsaber from the hands of the Jedi and after converting himself into pure energy and back again, came to Nadia's defense. His anger allowed for every length of his power to take form, with fire bursting from one hand and lightning from the other. After subduing the Governor, Orono tore the madman's chest open and healed Nadia's injuries. When he returned to the Council, they were furious, for he had broken the Jedi Code to save Nadia. Orono spat back that the Code was "a guide leading us to certain doom" and if necessary, he would destroy both the Jedi and the Sith to save her again...
