Star Wars - Junior Jedi Knights - Vader's Fortress

Rebecca Moesta

Reading: If suspense is a concern, read together and pause when the group reaches the fortress. You can check in about how the mysterious danger feels before deciding whether to continue.
Themes: Jedi training and responsibility: Anakin is headed to the Jedi Academy, and his uncle Luke thinks it is time for him to begin training; the group is also sent to recover a lightsaber. The premise connects the start of training with a dangerous mission, but does not establish what the story says about responsibility or readiness.
Seeking the lightsaber: Anakin and his friends travel with Tionne and Ikrit to search Vader’s abandoned fortress for Obi-Wan’s lightsaber. The group undertakes the search together; how they work together or resolve disagreements is not established.
Worth knowing: The fortress is described as a stronghold of dark power, with untold dangers and a possible further threat. The nature and intensity of those dangers are not clear.
