>>New Confederacy War<<

During the time of the New Confederacy War; most of the Jedi order was gone. For an unknown reason, no one in the New Republic could figure out why the Jedi vanished. Some believe it was because of the need for Jedi being low in the new time period. Others believe that with the decrease in deaths, becoming one with the force made it seem to go away. Even though this theory has been on number of times disproved.

Lars didn't realize of the power he held until Jedi Master Randar, serving his exile on the planet discovered the boy in the spaceport known as Mos Espa. Not realizing who the old man was, Lars didn't believe what he said at first but then agreed to be taught the ways of the force.
