Operation: Knightfall, which took place in 19 BBY immediately before the end of a galaxy-wide conflict between the Galactic Republic and an organized group of militant separatists, was one of the first conflicts of the Great Jedi Purge. After assisting in the death of Jedi Master Mace Windu and submitting to Dark Lord of the Sith and Supreme Chancellor of the Republic Palpatine's teachings, the newly anointed Darth Vader, formerly a Jedi, and the clone troopers of the 501st Legion stormed the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, initiating a massacre concurrent with the activation of Order 66, a galaxy-wide hunt of the Jedi by their former clone comrades. During this attack, most of the Jedi within the Temple were killed and the building itself was set ablaze. The 501st protected the Jedi library from Jedi who were trying to destroy the knowledge contained there in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Sith.

At the conclusion of the fighting, Vader altered a beacon that alerted Jedi across the galaxy—the ones that had not already fallen to the clones in their ranks—that the Clone Wars were over and ordered them back to the temple and into a trap. All of the Jedi who complied with the beacon's mandate were killed by squads of clones, some of whom were disguised as Jedi themselves. To prevent more deaths, two surviving Jedi Masters, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda, infiltrated the Temple and altered the beacon, changing the message to warn any and all surviving Jedi to flee and go into hiding. After this battle, the bodies of the slain Jedi were publicly burned in a massive pyre in front of the Jedi Temple Public Entrance.

Prelude

Since their first encounter, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, secretly Darth Sidious, Dark Lord of the Sith; had an interest in Anakin Skywalker, a boy intent on learning the Jedi ways. He positioned himself as a mentor and father figure to the boy in order to influence his decisions. Skywalker trusted Palpatine absolutely and confided in him his greatest secrets, such as his slaughtering Tusken Raiders on Tatooine or his relationship with Senator Padmé Amidala, that she had become pregnant with his child, and of his visions of her dying in child birth. In 19 BBY, Palpatine invited Skywalker to a performance of Squid Lake by the Mon Calamari Ballet in the Galaxies Opera House. There he recited to Skywalker the The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise, telling him that there were Sith techniques that he could learn to save Amidala. Later, Palpatine admitted to Skywalker that he knew how to utilize the dark side of the Force and Skywalker realized that he was actually a Sith Lord. The Jedi Knight was shocked by this revelation and he fled to the Jedi Temple to inform Jedi Master Mace Windu, who immediately took a squad of Masters to apprehend him.^[1]

In his Office on Coruscant, Sidious was confronted by Windu's group and all but Windu were quickly killed by the Sith. Sidious and Windu continued fighting until Skywalker arrived, deciding that Amidala's life was more important to him than his commitment to the Jedi. Skywalker cut off Windu's sword arm to save the Sith Lord, before Sidious threw him out of a window to his death, and pledged himself to Sidious's Sith teachings, being dubbed Darth Vader. Sidious then declared the Jedi Order a threat to the Galactic Republic. Darth Vader was assigned the task of marching through the halls of the Jedi Temple and eliminating this growing "threat."^[1] The troopers of the 501st Legion were transferred to Coruscant from the war theater of Utapau to serve Lord Vader during the mission.^[8]

At the same time, Sidious enacted Order 66, a mandate that was drilled into every Republic clone trooper across the galaxy since before the Clone Wars, a conflict between the Republic and separatist forces, broke out. It commanded them to attack and kill their Jedi commanders in the name of the Republic.^[9] Within minutes, many Jedi were killed by their formerly loyal subordinates,^[1] though some survived the order, such as T'ra Saa;^[10] A'Sharad Hett, who rebuffed the clones;^[11] and Rahm Kota, who had no clones in his squads.^[12]

The battle

Marching silently to the gates of the Temple with the 501st, Darth Vader was met by Gate Master Jurokk, who asked Vader about Master Windu's safety. Ignoring the question, Vader asked him about the whereabouts of Jedi Master Shaak Ti, as she was the current leader and commander of the Temple. The gate master replied that she was in the Temple meditating. Noticing the mass of troopers just outside the gate, he once again asked Vader if something was wrong. Vader responded by igniting his lightsaber into Jurokk's head.^[7]

As the troopers dispersed throughout the Temple's vaulted halls, Vader began to eliminate the Jedi within. He took a small group of clones to capture the Jedi Communication Center via the Jedi Archives. Upon entering the Temple's library with the clones, he ordered Jocasta Nu, the Chief librarian of the Archives, to grant him access to the communication room.^[6] Nu, already sensing something suspicious, had earlier dispatched her Padawan, Jin-Lo Rayce, to the lower levels of Coruscant with detailed maps of the planet's underbelly as a means of keeping him alive.^[13] When she ignited her blue lightsaber to confront the Sith, Vader used the Force to impale her with his own saber.^[6]

Operation: Knightfall

The clones charged into the temple foyer and met heavy resistance from Jedi and Temple Security Force personnel. Their first objective was to clear the High Council Chamber of resistance. After that succeeded, they moved to the library, where the Jedi were attempting to destroy holobooks to prevent the 501st troopers from stealing any confidential Jedi information or Sith secrets. However, the troopers managed to preserve a few bookcases from destruction by the Jedi long enough for a download of their contents to take place.^[8] In the ensuing carnage, one of the Jedi activated a ray shield system and hid in a shield protected room. Vader disabled the shield system and killed the Jedi before proceeding into one of the surrounding halls. As he moved into the hall, Jedi snipers ambushed the clone attackers. Vader, at a clone's advice, toppled a hulking statue, crushing many of the Jedi. Using a piece of that statue, he broke down the door into a study hall and the group proceeded to kill many students, snipers, and Jedi brutes. After battling his way across an outdoor catwalk, the raid continued into the hangar bay, where Vader shot down fleeing Jedi Interceptors with an anti-aircraft gun erected by the clones.^[6]

When Darth Vader reached the top of the High Council quarter, he moved to the Communication Center and activated a beacon that notified all Jedi to return to the Jedi Temple—the war was over. A clone private then informed him that a Jedi, later identified as Cin Drallig, had managed to penetrate upper-level defenses. Vader told him that he would deal with Drallig and ordered the nearby clone assassins to guard the beacon with their lives.^[6]

Hunting the masters and children

Before tracking down Drallig, Vader took the ancient elevator in the High Council Tower to the Council Chamber, and slaughtered a group of younglings upon his entrance when they mistook him for the Jedi Knight he had once been. Vader then made his way through the First Knowledge quarter to one of the many briefing rooms, where Drallig's former apprentice, Serra Keto, confronted Vader and engaged him in a duel. Jumping on a balcony that looked over a training veranda in the Tower of First Knowledge, she cut into a pillar and Vader toppled it, using it to crush her. Drallig, sensing Keto's death, hoped to avenge her in a duel with the Sith Lord.^[6]

As the remaining Jedi Masters realized that the Temple was lost, they began to send Knights and Padawans out through the Temple Precinct. Vader made his way to the base of the Temple where he found Drallig guarding a group of fleeing younglings in the Room of a Thousand Fountains. After murdering two of Drallig's trainees, Bene^[14] and Whie Malreaux, the Sith slashed Drallig in the shoulder, leaving him to die. The squad of clones accompanying Vader then blasted at the other Padawans Drallig was protecting, killing most of them.^[7] A Zabrak Jedi had also been assigned to protect a group of younglings. He was caught by Vader and, after a brief duel, struck down. With his last words he told Vader that this betrayal would hurt the new Sith Lord the most.^[15]

As the clones continued the attack, Darth Vader discovered Shaak Ti within her chambers. After dueling and disorienting the Sith Lord, she managed to lead a band of Padawans and their Masters out of the Temple, and later secured a small number of her charges passage through the Undercity.^[12] Along with Master Ti, Council Member Even Piell fled into the depths of Coruscant.^[16] Leader of the Special Operations Brigade, a special forces division of the clone army, Arligan Zey had gone to the Temple upon hearing of General Grievous' death, only to be caught in the battle within the halls of his sanctuary. He made it out of the Temple and found his way back to his offices in Arca Barracks, where he was executed by his aide, the Advanced Recon Commando Captain Maze.^[2] Among the other survivors were Jedi Kazdan Paratus, who ran away in fear;^[12] Jax Pavan, a Jedi Knight;^[16] and the Last Curator of Records.^[17]

The raid continues

Meanwhile, the 501st Legion secured all four Jedi Council chambers and engaged the Temple Security Force in the main hall. Darth Vader then returned from his duel with Cin Drallig and collected several holocrons containing Jedi and Sith information while eliminating most of the remaining Temple Security guards and Jedi Knights.^[8]

However, three Jedi Masters, who had taken something of a military command over the remaining Jedi, led the last of the Jedi Knights into the main hall in an attempt to repel the 501st one last time. The Jedi came out in a sudden charge against the clones, although the three were eventually killed by the insurgents.^[8]

As the Temple burned, Bail Organa, Senator from Alderaan and Jedi sympathizer, landed on the landing platform of one of the Council Tower hangars to investigate the fire. After being turned away by the clones guarding the hangar, the retreating Senator witnessed the execution of Zett Jukassa, a young Padawan. The clones had orders to leave no witnesses and Organa narrowly escaped their blaster fire with his life.^[7]

Aftermath

As the clones secured the Temple, they collected the bodies of fallen clones and Jedi. Checking off their dead against barracks rosters, and the fallen Jedi against Archive records, they began to burn the bodies on the steps of the public entrance of the Temple.^[18]

A Galactic Empire

Sidious, in his capacity as Supreme Chancellor, called an emergency congressional meeting to report the "Jedi rebellion" and their plot to overthrow him and the government. He used his "disfigured" image, his true face that had been hidden until his duel with Windu, and fabricated evidence to place doubt on the merit of the entire Order. He officially declared all Jedi enemies to the Republic. At the same time, Sidious declared a new order, the end of the Republic and the rise of a new Galactic Empire with Palpatine as its Emperor.^[7]

The Jedi mission

Bail Organa intercepted a transmission while housing two survivors of Order 66. The message told all Jedi that the war was over, and they were allowed to return to the Jedi Temple. Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi, two surviving Masters, knew it was a trap and left for the Temple to modify and reprogram the transmission so as to inform all Jedi to stay away.^[1]

The emergency congressional session was being held at the time, reducing security personnel numbers at the Temple, when Kenobi and Yoda entered the Temple through a downlevel loading dock, encountering Decoy Squad Five, a group of clone troopers using Jedi robes to disguise their appearance. The two got close to the squad by dressing up as an old man, Obi-Wan, trying to turn in a Jedi baby, Yoda, and preceded to kill the group when they would not allow them into the Temple peacefully.^[7] Upon entering the Temple, they were ambushed by many clones. The two split up and a group of clones swarmed Kenobi while a squad of clone assassins attacked Yoda but both forces were rebuffed by the Jedi Masters. A clone heavy trooper crept up behind Kenobi, ready to kill him, but Yoda appeared and lifted him off the ground with the Force. In a panic, the trooper fired his rockets up at the roof, which came crashing down. The two Jedi moved the debris using the Force and headed to the Communications Center. There, Kenobi was forced to eliminate the clone assassins that guarded it.^[6] Yoda also noticed that the dead younglings had been killed by lightsabers, not blasters.^[1]

After reprogramming the beacon to order all Jedi to flee, Kenobi decided he needed to see who was behind the attack. He could only watch in horror as he viewed a hologram of Vader slaughtering his fellow Jedi without mercy or hesitation. Overwhelmed with emotion, Kenobi could not watch anymore and pleaded with Yoda to let him kill the Emperor, as he felt that he could not bring himself to kill his former apprentice, who was like a brother to him. Yoda told Kenobi that he was not experienced enough to face Palpatine. He also explained that Skywalker was gone and Darth Vader had risen in his place. Knowing this to be true, Kenobi knew what he had to do—kill Darth Vader.^[1]

Yoda headed to the Senate to confront Palpatine, while Obi-Wan traveled to the apartment of Padmé Amidala to ask her if she had seen or knew where Skywalker was. Amidala was distressed by the fires at the Jedi Temple and asked Kenobi what had happened. He informed her that Skywalker had fallen to the dark side and killed Jedi at the temple. Despite what Kenobi said about him, Amidala refused to tell him Skywalker's location. As the Jedi Master prepared to leave the apartment, he realized that the father of her unborn child was Skywalker and left her with an apology for what he had to do. After Kenobi left, Amidala boarded her ship and flew to the planet Mustafar to confront her husband, unaware that Kenobi had stowed away. Though Kenobi did not want to, he knew he had to face Darth Vader in order to bring the Sith threat to an end. The two met on the planet after she landed. Vader, believing Amidala had betrayed him, Force Choked her as Kenobi revealed himself to them. They proceeded to duel all throughout the Droid Factory on the planet. They eventually worked their way to the edge of a lava river some distance away before Vader jumped at Kenobi who proceeded to sever all the former's organic limbs. Vader slid closer to the lava and combusted; Kenobi simply grabbed the Sith Lord's lightsaber and walked away, leaving him with his dissappointments.^[1] Vader bathed himself in the dark side to stay alive^[3] and used his remaining mechanical hand to crawl up the slope. After a while, Vader was saved by Sidious, who took him to the Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center on Coruscant where the maimed man was fitted with a portable life supported armor to keep him alive.^[1]

Public and non-clone military response

As the fires burned through the night, the citizens of Galactic City could only watch in shock as the symbol of the Jedi was engulfed in flames. Skylanes were shut down around the Temple Precinct, with all traffic being directed away from the district. As Order 66 circulated to non-clone military forces, such as the Coruscant Security Force officers, shock and awe was felt by those who had known Jedi over their careers on Coruscant. Their standing order to help Jedi in any way possible, an objective the organization had held since its founding, was rescinded, and they were ordered to alert the 501st upon observing a Jedi. Coruscant Rescue Ops were forbidden from extinguishing the fires engulfing the Temple, and any ship attempting to approach the Temple was assumed to be doing so with treasonous intent. Names of fleeing Jedi were sent out on all military channels; Tru Veld, a Jedi, was just one of several major threats perceived during the fight at the Temple and he was killed for it.^[2]

Checkpoints were set up on the large bridges that crossed the chasms of the city, and lead to major spaceports. Clones and CSF officers patrolled nearby areas attempting to root out the fleeing Jedi. A group of Padawans were discovered trying to escape the Temple via the Shinarcan Bridge Extension and upon discovery they attempted to fight their way free, hoping to make it to Chancellor Palpatine Spaceport in order to get off world. Jedi Etain Tur-Mukan happened to be passing through at the same moment and, unaware that the clones were killing Jedi, sacrificed her life in order to protect one of the attacking clones. The Jedi who slew Tur-Mukan leapt off the bridge, fleeing into the city below. Several of the other Jedi died, though some did escape.^[2]

Jedi casualties

As the Temple was secured, the clones began to count the dead. Piling Jedi bodies and checking them off from the Archives rosters, the clones burned the majority of the bodies on the steps of the public entrance. Among the dead were Jedi Master Cin Drallig,^[6] killed by Lord Vader himself, along with Drallig's apprentices Padawan Bene,^[14] Padawan Whie Malreaux^[14] and Jedi Knight Serra Keto.^[6] Vader also personally executed Jedi librarian Jocasta Nu,^[6] Jedi Master and Gate Master Jurokk,^[7] Younglings Sors Bandeam, Shia Letap, Jeswi Ele and rest of their clan.^[1][19] Padawan Zett Jukassa^[1] and Jedi Knight Yoland Fee were killed by clone troopers. Jedi Master Ali-Alann was also killed.^[20] Jedi Knight Olana Chion was presumed dead, though her body was never properly identified.^[21] In addition to the Jedi casualties, the entire security force of Jedi Brutes and Jedi snipers were killed,^[6] as well as most of the Temple Security Force and Temple Caretakers.^[8]

Legacy

Following the battle, every official recording of the battle was erased. Malorum, an Imperial Inquisitor, saw one of these tapes before its deletion, and watched Anakin Skywalker killing Jedi before kneeling to Darth Sidious and being called "Darth Vader." After Vader publicly became Sidious's enforcer, Malorum realized that Skywalker and Vader were the same man.^[22]

Malorum converted the room that Yoda had used as his private meditation chamber into his own personal office, where he stored secret files that not even Darth Vader was aware of, with the Emperor's permission. The Temple remained virtually untouched after the battle, no battle damage was repaired and the only addition was a landing platform, made to replace the destroyed hangar, which jutted out of the side of the structure. Many pathways in the Temple were permanently sealed by debris. Stormtroopers continued to patrol the halls after the Empire had risen, and they were on constant alert despite the rarety of attacks or infiltration. It was also used to store lightsabers taken from many slain Jedi. Tru Veld's lightsaber was among them.^[23]

Rumors about the Temple being used as a Jedi prison were spread by the Empire to lure any curious Jedi to the area so they could be captured. Jedi Fy-Tor-Ana and former Padawan Ferus Olin both fell for this ruse. Tales about the Jedi in general surfaced as well, saying that they had accepted payment for saving worlds or that they were just evil. Many people believed these lies.^[23]

Several decades later, in 36 ABY, it was revealed that R2-D2, Anakin Skywalker's personal astromech droid, had stolen and downloaded a recording of Operation: Knightfall at some point. Luke Skywalker, Artoo's current owner and the son of Anakin, wanted to know if Artoo had any other holograms of his parents; Artoo had already shown him one of his mother, Padmé Amidala, that had been recorded a short while before her death. At first Artoo dodged the request and attempted to leave the room, but at the urging of protocol droid C-3PO, Artoo's counterpart, he showed the clip to Luke. His brief clip was of Anakin Skywalker and a large group of clone troopers killing Cin Drallig and his Padawan charges. Seeing these images upset the group, especially Luke who had to go into a separate room and center himself afterward.^[24]

During 40 ABY, in the rebuilt Jedi Temple, Jacen Solo flow-walked back to the time of the raid on the Temple to understand the motive for the actions of Anakin Skywalker, his grandfather, in order to ensure that his own reasons for joining the Sith were not selfish. He felt a connection with his grandfather after sensing his emotions mirrored Skywalker's when the Dark Lady of the Sith Lumiya told him his destiny was to be a Sith. Another connection he sensed, bringing him to tears, was that they both were making their decisions for the women they loved, Skywalker for Amidala and Solo for Tenel Ka Djo, the mother of his child. He saw Skywalker murder many Jedi, including Sors Bandeam and his Clan, but was interrupted by a clone trooper who raised his blaster rifle toward the time traveler and forced him to return to his own time. Despite the connection he felt to his grandfather, Solo determined that he had a much better reason for turning to the dark side than Skywalker.^[25]

Behind the scenes

The eradication of the Jedi Order and the turning of Anakin Skywalker was first indirectly mentioned in the original trilogy and later in The Courtship of Princess Leia though the circumstances of this event were not. It was not until 2005, with the release of LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game, a non-canon game that came out a month before the theatrical release of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, that a depiction of the event was seen. The brief showing was based upon the scene in Revenge of the Sith where Yoda and Obi-Wan watch holographic security footage of Vader's actions. Shaak Ti is seen being killed in her chamber, followed by Vader kneeling to Sidious as was seen in the film. The circumstances surrounding the event were further explored in Star Wars: Battlefront II and the Episode III video game which made the massacre playable, and revealed some of the secondary objectives of the transforming Republic such as the acquisition of data from the Jedi library. The Episode III novel, however, barely touches this event, skipping to Bail Organa after Vader killed Jurokk.

In Star Wars: Battlefront II, during the story mission "Operation: Knightfall," Darth Vader is playable, under the name Anakin Skywalker, and wears a cloak over his Jedi robes with the hood up as he did during Episode III. During the Instant Action and Conquest modes of the game, he is seen only wearing his robes.

Cut content

Originally, Obi-Wan and Yoda were to be greeted by a squad of clone troopers disguised as Jedi in the Episode III movie. A promotional image of Temuera Morrison as one of these clones is in the special features of Episode III's second disk suggesting that they were considered for the movie.^[26] These clones were included, not in the story, as playable characters in LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game and in the compiliation game LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga. The group appeared in the Episode III novel as Decoy Squad Five where they were aproached by Kenobi, disguised as a hunchbacked old man, who tried to pass off Yoda as a Jedi baby so that they could get close enough to reason with the clones. When negotiations quickly failed, the clones attacked, all members of the squad were dead within six seconds. This group of clones' appearance in the novel does make them canon, however.
