In the present , the second issue picks up where left off — on Archaeo - Prime , a marketplace for the sale and purchase of archaeological relics maintained by the Archaeological Association . Aphra ' s father has made his re - appearance in Aphra ' s life to reveal that he is the one who had her doctorate suspended , once he uncovered that she lied about her discovery of Abersyn symbiote s on Boothi XII . To Aphra ' s dismay , her father needs her help in his latest attempt in his lifelong pursuit of the Ordu Aspectu . She takes him back to the " Ark Angel II " to talk it over . Back at the " Ark Angel ' s " hanger , Aphra pulls out her blaster and points it at her father . She demands that he clear her name . Aphra ' s father calls her bluff , and Aphra orders Triple Zero to do the job for her . At the last moment , however , her conscience gets the better of her .

A squadron of Jedi starfighter s converge on a space - station called The Fortress of Garn . Rur , leader of the Ordu Aspectu , begs the Jedi to cease hostilities . Rur ' s lieutenant , a man named Amon , informs his leader that the Jedi have already breached the fortress . Reluctantly , they head into battle , but Rur orders Amon not to take life if he can avoid it . The " Jedi , " garbed in black , and wielding red lightsaber s , have penetrated the fortress . The Ordu Aspectu , wielding blue lightsabers , meet them in combat . The " Jedi " have come to end the Ordu Aspectu ' s " heresy , " that their single - minded pursuit of immortality has made them enemies of one another . One of the " Jedi , " a Togruta , strikes down Amon in the heat of the melee . Rur , desperate to avoid " another lost eternity , " reaches out with the Force and the Fortress of Garn , including both the " Jedi " and Ordu warriors , are suddenly swallowed up by the void . Back in the present , Aphra ' s father explains his reasoning for his urge to find the lost fortress of the Ordu Aspectu . He believes that Rur was successful in his quest for immortality , and that discovery of the lost fortress might precipitate a " spiritual renaissance , a [ re ] awakening of the Force . " Aphra has a different interpretation of history . . . Flashback to the Fortress of Garn , again . A squadron of Jedi starfighters converge on the space - station . Rur stands alongside his lieutenant Amon , both garbed in black armour , and issues the approaching Jedi an ultimatum : retreat or they will slay the Padawan s they have captured . Followed by a massive explosion , the Jedi , dressed in white and wielding blue lightsabers , breach the fortress . The red of the Ordu Aspectu ' s blades flash as they and the Jedi engage in combat ; lightning torments the captive Padawans . Amon activates a computer terminal , killing himself in the process , and the Fortress of Garn , as well as both Jedi and Ordu Aspectu , are swallowed up by the void . Back in the present once more , Aphra and her father continue their debate . Aphra believes the Ordu Aspectu ' s " heresy " had nothing to do with eternal life but the " possessive infinite , " an age - old argument between Jedi grammarians . She claims her father is " chasing mist " — a metaphor — but reluctantly agrees to help him , if only to prove him wrong . Yavin IV . The " Ark Angel " hangs in orbit above the gas giant Yavin .
