✖
China is getting an exclusive Star Wars story set during the twilight of The High Republic era. Lucasfilm and Tencent first announced its partnership in 2019, hiring the popular Chinese internet writer known by the pseudonym His Majesty the King, known for their popular Xianxia (a genre of Chinese fantasy) novels, to write a web-novel set in the Star Wars universe but with the trapping and tropes of traditional Chinese adventure fiction. New details have surfaced, confirming that the story's English title is Star Wars; The Vow of Silver Dawn. The tale is a coming of age story about a young Jedi padawan named Sean. A video released on the Chinese social media platform Weibo implies that Sean's loyalty is torn between what the Jedi Council wants and his own personal goals.
