== Synopsis ==
{{DISPLAYTITLE:''Legacy's Edge I: A Shadowed Peace''}}
Seventy years have passed since the deaths of [[Anakin Skywalker|Darth Vader]] and [[Emperor]] [[Palpatine]]. The heroes of the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic|Rebellion]] have passed the torch to new generations. The [[Galactic Alliance]] keeps peace across the galaxy while the [[Imperial Remnant]] has been reformed thanks to the efforts of [[Jaina Solo Fel|Jaina]] and [[Jagged Fel]]. The children of the galaxy are growing up in a place of equality and justice. [[Luke Skywalker]]'s son Ben lands a new Jedi Order and trains his daughter in the ways of the Force.

Yet the decades-long peace might be coming to a close. Unrest in the Outer Rim threatens to spill over into bloody revolt and somewhere in the shadows a new league of Sith lays a trap to snare the Jedi. When conflict begins, the next generation of heroes will be tested against enemies old and new...

== Development ==
Gregory O. Scott began ''A Shadowed Peace'' as part of a larger initiative to address unfinished storylines within the ''[[Star Wars Legends|Star Wars]]'' [[Star Wars Legends|Legends]] EU. Scott had previously written the ''[[Sword of the Jedi (trilogy)|Sword of the Jedi]]'' to replace the canceled official series of the same name, aiming to provide closure to the characters and storylines left unresolved when the ''Legends'' continuity was discontinued. However, one significant gap remained—the 80-year span between the post-''[[Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi|Return of the Jedi]]'' novels and ''[[Legacy]]'' comics.

Plugging this gap involved creating a new generation of [[Skywalker family|Skywalkers]], [[House of Solo|Solos]], [[Fel dynasty|Fels]], and others while finding a balance between ending old characters' arcs and introducing new ones. The creative freedom was both exciting and daunting, as Scott had to ensure the story tied together essential elements of ''Star Wars'': the [[Galactic Federation of Free Alliances|Alliance]], [[Imperial Remnant|Empire]], [[Jedi]], [[Sith]], [[Mandalorian|Mandalorians]], and even the [[Yuuzhan Vong]]. The novel references elements from Scott's ''Sword of the Jedi'' trilogy while remaining accessible to fans familiar with the pre-Disney ''Legends'' EU. The book's four-act structure spans 40 chapters and presents familiar faces alongside new heroes, marking the culmination of Scott's efforts to blend old and new elements of ''Star Wars'' lore.<ref name="LegacyEdge2">[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13444026/1/Star-Wars-Legacy-s-Edge-I-A-Shadowed-Peace Legacy's Edge I: A Shadowed Peace] on [[FanFiction.Net]]</ref>
