The story would be a loose adaptation of Heir To The Empire of the Thrawn Trilogy, the Legacy of the Force series, as well as an original story.
Set about 30 years after 'Return of the Jedi', Luke Skywalker is a fabled grandmaster of a new Jedi order, rarely seen in public, Princess Leia is now a wise leader of the New Rupublic, and Han Solo is still sailing the stars in his old rust bucket, the Millennium Falcon, now upgraded and supped up. Luke has twin children, Jaina and Jacen, to carry on the legacy of the Skywalkers.
The Empire still exists, a remnant of its former glory, but still in control of a corner of the galaxy, under the command of Grand Admiral Thrawn, a military genius who psychoanalyses his enemies by studying their art.
Everything is shaken up with the arrival of a Sith Lord, the son of the Emperor himself, a true heir to the Empire, who uses his immense power along with Thrawn's strategy to deal serious blows to the Republic.
As the Republic and the Jedi struggle to retaliate and defend against the power of the Empire and its new leaders, the legendary Luke Skywalker himself re-enters the battle for the galaxy...
