Knightings on Dac

"They'll be the first Jedi Knights of the new order -Cal Omas

The Knightings on Dac was a ceremony to honor the Jedi that had perished and to knight that survived of the strike team of the Mission to Myrkr. It took place on Dac, close to the New Republic Capital, Mon Calamari.

Planning
After the creation of the new Jedi Council during the Yuuzhan Vong War several Jedi apprentices that had been with the strike team to Myryr had arrived on Mon Calamari}} without any master to lead them. This brought up the question if to promote these young Jedi to knight so that they could make their own decision on how to help with the war efforts. Not being able to exclude any survivor of the strike team it was decided that all nine that remained were to be given the rank of [[Jedi Knight. The newly elected Chief of State, Cal Omas took this into his plan to make a place in the galaxy for the Jedi with the council planned a public ceremony to show the people the heroes of Myrkr.

Speeches
The ceremony was introduced by Omas, who made a speech that honored the Jedi that had died during the Myrkr Mission and those that remained. Following, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker also held a speech where he spoke of the birth of the Jedi Order and it's history finishing with the creation of his own Order.

Knightings
After the two speeches, the nine survivors were one by one given a short personal speech by Skywalker where he spoke of their life and character and then given their official Jedi Robe by two masters. Finalizing the newly titled Jedi Knight drew their lightsabers and together spoke the Jedi Code. The Jedi knighted were, Tenel Ka, Tesar Sebatyne, Alema Rar, Lowbacca, Jacen Solo, Zekk, Tahiri Veila and lastly Jaina Solo.

Aftermath
After the official ceremony a reception was held in the honor of the newly knighted where politicians and some military men could mingle with both the the young and the elder Jedi Knight and masters. It was here that Jacen Solo told Vergere that genes had been discovered that differed them from humans and was same in all Vong life. This alerted Vergere to the creation of Alpha Red which she later tried to sabotage.

Beyond the scenes
It can be debated if this truly was the knighting ceremony for Lowbacca, Tenel Ka, Jaina and Jacen Solo who had all been knighted at a diffrent ceremony in at the Jedi Academy on Yavin 24 ABY.
