Prologue

The young Mara Jade is found and saved by an acting free agent of the Red Guard and trusted companion of Palpatine, Horlin Isan in the lower levels of Coruscant.

Due to his own busy schedule in the early years of the Empire, Palpatine entruts her training and raising to Horlin himself.

Under his wing, she learns various skills such as diplomacy, manipulation, hand to hand combat, mechanics and more; only going to Palpatine for force training in later years.

With Horlin, she is forced to go all over the galaxy, conducting the Emperor's bidding on all sorts of worlds and with all types of people.

But will one decade spent with Horlin Isan prepare her for her hardest undertaking?
