Publisher's summary[]

Leading into Jedi: Fallen Order the upcoming third-person action-adventure Star Wars title from Lucasfilm and Respawn Entertainment, DARK TEMPLE follows the Jedi Master ENO CORDOVA and his impulsive Padawan CERE JUNDA on their most dangerous mission yet. The Jedi Council has sent them to the remote planet Ontotho to oversee the peaceful excavation of a mysterious temple that has been uncovered. But they will come to find that what surrounds the temple may be even more dangerous than the mysteries within it. Clandestine local resistance forces and ruthless corporate security troops in a war for the fate of Ontotho – and the Jedi are caught in the middle!

Plot summary[]

CHAPTER 1 OF 5 "A PLANET DIVIDED"

The Jedi Knights are gone and forgotten. Destroyed by
their ancient enemies—the Sith—after a long civil war
engineered to bring about their downfall and a new age:
the age of the Empire.

But not long before, the Jedi were the guardians of peace
and justice in the galaxy. Loyal to the Republic for more than
1,000 generations and well trained in the many mystical
powers of the Force, the Order dispersed its wise and
powerful warriors to settle disputes, seek knowledge and
keep the peoples of countless star systems safe.

And the bond of one Jedi team, a master and apprentice,
is about to be tested like never before. There are some
threats that are far too insidious…and far too ancient to be
overcome with just the swing of a lightsaber. Jedi training
cannot prepare a Padawan student for everything....

↑ The frame story of Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order - Dark Temple takes place concurrently with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order take place about five years after the end of the Clone Wars, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 19 BBY. Therefore, it can be deduced that the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order - Dark Temple take place around 14 BBY.
↑ Jedi Master Poli Dapatian, who is present on the Jedi High Council in the flashback story in Jedi Fallen Order - Dark Temple 1, retires from his position in Master & Apprentice, meaning that the comic must take place before the novel. Skywalker: A Family at War places the events of Master & Apprentice eight years before the Invasion of Naboo, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 32 BBY. Therefore, Master & Apprentice takes place in 40 BBY. Therefore Jedi Fallen Order - Dark Temple 1 takes place some time prior.
