Rescue mission in Theed

The Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi undertook a rescue mission in the city of Theed on Naboo after escorting the Queen home from her mission to speak to the Galactic Senate. The mission took place during the Invasion of Naboo in the year 32 BBY and was executed under the cover of darkness. Asha, a servant who had become a leader of the Naboo Resistance, contacted Kenobi and asked him to rescue several Security Force pilots who had been captured and were being held in the Palace Observatory. Kenobi started near the Theed Royal Palace and defended himself against B1-series battle droids. After disabling the alarm, he faced E4 baron droids. Kenobi then crossed the bridge to the Observatory and eliminated a pair of Trade Federation assassin droids. He then rescued the pilots, and the squad leader agreed to join with the Resistance. Kenobi retraced his steps, leading the pilots back to the Palace. Kenobi struck down more droids, including bomb droids. Once near the Palace, Kenobi fought with the resistance against 2 more baron droids and finished his mission. The next day Kenobi and the pilots joined in the battle to retake Theed.
