Introduction
Nine years after avenging his father's death, Kyle Katarn is a lone-wolf mercenary looking to redeem himself. Having just barely escaped the temptation of the dark side in Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II,
Kyle realized he could no longer trust himself to wield the Force. Confused and disappointed, he relinquished his role as a Jedi Knight by turning in his lightsaber and vowing to never again use the force. Kyle now spends
his time working on reconnaissance missions for the New Republic. His connection to the Force may have weakened but his quick thinking and fast reflexes remain powerful assets to the New Republic.
Today, Kyle and his trusted partner Jan Ors have been sent on a routine mission to Kejim, a dark and desolate world that floats lifelessly around a fading sun. The New Republic has intercepted communiques coming from what was thought to be
an abandoned Imperial listening post on the planet. Curiously, the transmissions include cryptic references to the Valley of the Jedi. Mon Mothma asks Kyle to investigate this strange turn of events. While on this mission,
Kyle again finds himself at the front lines against the Empire, which unlocks a secret that will force him to reconcile his troubled past.
