On February 24, 2020, Lucasfilm announced a new series of comics and novels called Star Wars: The High Republic, intended to be a publisher-only multimedia project, unrelated to any films in development. Lucasfilm had teased "Project Luminous" in April 2019, prompting intense fan speculation. "Project Luminous" was started in September 2018 with invitations to Star Wars authors including Claudia Gray, Justina Ireland, Daniel José Older, Cavan Scott, and Charles Soule to Skywalker Ranch, with Lucasfilm offering them a "blank slate" in determining the project. The Jedi were primarily based on Coruscant but a number of Jedi Temples were scattered across the galaxy on every major Republic planet. The Jedi Order worked as a distinct entity separate from the Republic and the Order was at its most diverse and transparent, donning golden robes and wielding the Force to a much greater extent. Importantly, it was a time of peace for the Republic and the Republic was expanding into previously unreached areas in the Outer Rim. The High Republic era was a golden age for both the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order who were both at the height of their power. The third phase, Trials of the Jedi, began in November 2023 with the release of George Mann's novel The Eye of Darkness. The second phase, Quest of the Jedi, started in October 2022. The first, Light of the Jedi, ran from January 2021 to February 2022. The initiating event of the sub-franchise is "The Great Disaster" involving the antagonistic "space Vikings" known as the Nihil and the subsequent intervention of the Jedi. Star Wars: The High Republic is a multimedia project consisting of various stories from the Star Wars franchise set during the " High Republic" era, which spans 500 to 100 years before the Skywalker Saga and is set hundreds of years after the fall of the "Old Republic".
