The rescue of Princess Leia[5] was a mission undertaken by Hidden Path and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi during the Imperial Era to rescue Princess Leia Organa the Path from Nur, home to the Fortress Inquisitorius after she had been captured by the Third Sister. Having found Kenobi and Organa on the planet Mapuzo, the Third Sister captured Leia and brought her to Nur for interrogation. The Third Sister questioned Leia to no avail about a network known as the Path used by Jedi sympathizers. Meanwhile, Kenobi, alongside Imperial Captain Tala Durith infiltrated the Fortress Inquisitorius to rescue Leia.[3]
