Plot summary

In transit, newly Knighted Jedi Yoshi Raph-Elan finds himself attacked by unknown assailants. One of the ships hits him, disabling his craft, and forcing him to crash-land on a nearby planet. After finding his ship worthless, and his lightsaber smashed, Yoshi heads off for a nearby village. Upon his arrival, Yoshi finds a small child about to be shot by a battle-droid. After saving the child and dispatching the droid, he heads off in search of the droid's master. His search takes him to a large castle. In an attempt to infiltrate the castle, Yoshi is discovered by Princess Lourdes, who is intended to marry the droids' master, Lord Gar-Oth. The princess brings Yoshi with her to a reception of Lord Gar-Oth, in hopes he can help against the conqueror. But when Gar-Oth declares his intentions to marry Lourdes right then and there, Yoshi lies, saying he is her husband. Gar-Oth attacks him, but upon realizing he is a Jedi, he unveils his giant Goliath droid, which he orders to attack the Jedi. After the princess kills Gar-Oth, Yoshi is able to use the giant droid's own circuitry to repair his lightsaber, which he uses to destroy the droid. Later, a republic ship is sent to rescue the young Jedi, but not before Lourdes kisses Yoshi telling him to return to her.
