comment
Inquisitor: Rise of the Red Blade is a Star Wars novel written by Deliah S. Dawson (Phasma & Black Spire) and was published on July 18th, 2023.Iskat Akaris has long felt isolated in the Jedi Order - shunned by most of her peers for an accident that crippled a fellow initiate as a child, apprenticed to a Master who seems more interested in finding artifacts than establishing a bond with her, and an unknown past in which even her species is a mystery. As Iskat struggles to be a good Jedi, the Clone Wars erupt and the Battle of Geonosis alters the course of her life as she finds the heat of battle more of a home than any other place the Jedi have sent her. Struggling with her emotions, the distrust of the Council, and chaos of war, Iskat finds herself on a path to darkness that may have answers she has long sought and the acceptance she craves, but could cost her all that she already has...

Foregone Conclusion: We know from the Dark Lord of the Sith comic series that Iskat and Tualon Yaluna will both fall to the Dark Side and become Inquisitors right up to their deaths, with the book showing how that happens.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Star Wars: Inquisitor - Rise of the Red Blade / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Iskat takes a page from Anakin's book in reckless strategies during the mission on Thule, that, while it may get some Clones killed or in danger of being killed, actually gets results faster than normal planning would do, as we seen in The Clone Wars multiple times. Of course, unlike Anakin, who has praises from various Jedi (Such as Obi-Wan, despite his initial misgivings, praised Anakin for his cleverness in certain tough spots such as getting past Admiral Trench's blockade of Christophsis, while defeating the Admiral himself) and the Clones under his command like Rex, once Iskat and Tualon return to Coruscant with the full report on their mission, Masters Adi Gallia and Yoda reprimand them for their reckless actions, since it forced the Separatists to be more careful in the security measures of their various droid factories across the Galaxy. On top of that, there were civilians under that factory who were murdered. While Iskat snapped that the civilians on Thule could've been Separatists like the Genosians, Gallia and Yoda tell her that civilians, even if they were working for the Separatists in managing their droid factories, affiliation with them didn't matter since civilians were innocent regardless of what side of the war they're on.

Killed Offscreen: Adi Gallia suffers this because of Savage Opress by the book's 25th chapter, which also takes place around the 3rd and final year of the war. Later, many Jedi such as Mace Windu, in addition to General Grievous himself, also suffer this in the context of Revenge of the Sith.

Death World: Thule, a planet Iskat visits during a mission to destroy a Separatist Droid Factory after she, Josk Nivar, and Tualon Yluna slice into the main system to figure out where the other droid factories the Separatists built throughout the Galaxy on order from the Jedi Council. She strangely feels at peace with it via the Force, due to a Sith Temple on the planet itself.

I Want Them Alive!

comment
I Want Them Alive!: Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi reminds Jedi Knights Iskat, Tualon, and Sunghi to take General Grievous alive if they manage to find him on Frong, a world in the Outer Rim he and his Battle Droid minions destroyed. It's later revealed that while Grievous and his army WERE present on the world, he was nowhere to be found, since it was part of a bigger ploy to lure out as many Jedi as possible to be killed by their Clones when Order 66 went down, with Sunghi being one of their victims. Plus, Grievous himself was already defeated by Obi-Wan on Utapau.

So Much for Stealth
 Star Wars: Inquisitor - Rise of the Red Blade / int_7831c048
comment
So Much for Stealth: The mission on Thule was for Iskat, Tualon, and Josk to stealthily deactivate the droid factory on the planet since intelligence falsely indicated there were barely any droids present, but due to the alarms alerting a Battle Droid battalion to Iskat and Tualon's presence, they fight and barely accomplish their mission.

Commonality Connection: A recurring subplot throughout the novel is Iskat bonding with Heezo, a Selonian in the Jedi Temple who worked on various droids such as Mouse droids and LEP servant droids, telling him about her frustrations with the Jedi Order while he tells her about various stuff going on throughout the Clone Wars, such as General Grievous, in addition to mentioning the Dark Side here and there. It's later revealed that Heezo is one of Palpatine's spies in the Jedi Temple, since Heezo himself failed his Jedi trails when he was once a Jedi Padawan.

Be Careful What You Wish For: Iskat Akaris wishes to be a part of the Jedi's effort to preserve democracy and freedom during the Clone Wars rather than be a librarian at Jocasta Nu's suggestion. The Jedi Council send her on her first mission in the war on Thule, which she undertakes with Jedi General Josk and fellow Jedi Knight Tualon Yluna to destroy a Separatist Droid Factory, which becomes very hectic when it's discovered that there was a Sith temple on the planet. That's not even adding into the fact that it was supposed to be a stealth mission, but the destruction of the droid factory caused by Iskat using a thermal detonator to prevent its safety features from overriding the initial sabotage she did by turning the panel all the way up also hurt civilians below the factory, landing Iskat in trouble with Adi Galla and Yoda, who punish her by teaching the Jedi Code to Younglings, as well as mediation lessons for 2 years.

Mook Depletion: A rare Hero example, since with so many Jedi fighting in the Clone Wars all around the Galaxy, there hasn't been a single Jedi who can take the time to help her train fully, aside from Ahsoka Tano and a few other Jedi. Of course, since the Clone Wars were designed to weaken Jedi numbers by the pound so Palpatine can establish his Empire, it's unsurprising that he'd want Iskat's resentment towards the Jedi to build so she can fall to the Dark Side.

How the Mighty Have Fallen: Iskat comes across Charlin Plaka, a Jedi Knight who survived Order 66 along with Jedi Master Klefan Opus, but was captured on the planet of Firrhana by pirates and imprisoned there without any contact, save for a droid who brings her food and water. Iskat mocks the Jedi Knight for always bullying her during her days as a Jedi and for sticking to the obsolete teachings of the nearly dead Jedi Order.
