    Summary

    When Obi-Wan Kenobi's assassination on Kardoa goes wrong, he survives—barely. Hiding in the shadows of Coruscant while the Jedi mourn and the Republic continues to fracture, he discovers the failed hit was just one piece of a conspiracy that reaches all the way to the Supreme Chancellor.
    With only Duchess Satine Kryze and a handful of trusted allies, Obi-Wan must expose Palpatine's plan to destroy the Jedi Order through Order 66 before it's too late. But staying dead means watching Anakin spiral under the Chancellor's manipulation, means letting Satine grieve, means risking everything on a gamble that the truth will be enough.

    As clone troopers have their autonomy stolen by inhibitor chips, as a Sith Lord tightens his grip on the galaxy, and as the Republic teeters on the edge of authoritarian rule, Obi-Wan faces an impossible choice: maintain his cover or save the people he loves.

    A canon-divergent fix-it where Obi-Wan's "death" becomes the catalyst for exposing Palpatine, where the Jedi Code evolves to allow attachment, and where sometimes the greatest act of heroism is trusting others with the truth.
