The
Battle of Hypori, in which several
Jediwere stranded on the
eponymousplanet where they encounter
the mysterious
General Grievous, who finally revealed
himself. The only surviving Jedi were
Ki-Adi-Mundi,
Shaak Ti,
Aayla Secura,
and
K'Kruhk(supposedly
died but survived due to his ability to heal wounds).
The battle
opened as the Republic fleet approached the foundry world, and they
were caught unawares by the minefield lain around the planet by
Grievous' forces. The trap was sprung. The entire Republic fleet
was destroyed in space, or as soon as they landed. Only the Jedi
survived. They were trapped inside the ruins of a
Acclamatorcruiser that had been
felled. They were surrounded by Super Battle
Droids.
Daakman Barrekmanaged to make contact with
General
Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was fresh from victory on
Muunilist. Barrek was killed during the transmission by General
Grievous, which prompted Kenobi to send a crack team of ARC
troopers to Hypori to rescue the stranded Jedi knights. The
troopers managed to infiltrate the perimiter, and sucedded in
fending Grievous off in enough time to save Ki-Adi-Mundi, Secura
and Ti.
The
CereanTarr Seirrand the humans Jedi
Daakman Barrekand
Sha'a Giwere all
killed. It was believed that the
WhiphidJedi
K'Kruhkwas killed as well, however
this contradicted with other
Expanded Universesources in which he
appeared that occurred later on. This continuity error was fixed by
the explanation that
Whiphidphysiology
allows them to go into a coma-like state, during which they are
able to heal major wounds. The first killed jedi after Sha'a Gi was
Tarr seirr, then Aaly Secura was hurt, K'Kruhh was hurt, Shaak Ti
got injured, and Ki-Adi-Mundi was the only
survivor.
