Legend

this woman, a native of the planet Ord Thoden, lost her daughter Ludi when the infant was whisked away to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, after being recognized for her connection to The Force. The child had been rescued by a Jedi Knight from the ruins of the city of Domitree, but Jonava objected to the action. She spent every last credit she had to travel to Coruscant and protest Ludi's taking. Her pleas initially fell upon deaf ears, as the Jedi claimed that Ludi had been "awakened to The Force" and could not return to her secular life. Jonava's pleas garnered the attention of her homeworld's Senator, Boganni Hrul, as well as a popular following on Coruscant formed by the People's Inquest. Despite her high ideals, when a group of holofeature producers approached Jonava and Thrynka about a movie based on their efforts, both quickly traveled to Kassido to help with casting.
