7 Years Later, A New Star Wars Book Brings Back The Most Important Planet You've Never Heard Of

Lucasfilm

Given the size of the Star Wars galaxy, maybe it’s no surprise that the Jedi have their fair share of sacred planets. There’s Coruscant, where they did their business for centuries, but there’s also Ilum, where young Padawans find the Kyber crystals that power their lightsabers, and Ahch-To is where the entire order started. But one planet often gets overlooked in Jedi history, probably because it’s never appeared in a movie. Instead, its rich story has been told in one television episode, multiple comics, and now an upcoming book — Star Wars: Legacy by Madeleine Roux.

Legacy follows Rey on a mission to repair her lightsaber, while Leia accompanies her as a mentor. The journey brings them to Tython, a mystical planet important to the early Jedi. In a new excerpt published at Polygon, we see two of Star Wars’ biggest characters explore the franchise’s most underused planet.
