They comply, but as they arrive, they find that the Praetorite Vong have decided to make a target of the planet by pulling its moon, Dobido, down. Lando also asks Han Solo, his son Anakin Solo, and Chewbacca to go to the planet Sernpidal to pick up some cargo. This is despite her sickness that, incidentally, the Yuuzhan Vong had given her through their agent, Nom Anor. They go, and Mara gets into a fight with Yomin Carr that she wins by killing him. Lando, meanwhile, asks Luke Skywalker and his wife Mara Jade to go and investigate what is happening on the world of Belkaden with R2-D2.

There, they see the liftoff of Jedi Master Kyp Durron's Dozen-and-Two Avengers X-wing squadron, whose sole purpose is to protect the galaxy from criminals and pirates. Meanwhile, the Skywalker-Solo family, who, like the New Republic, are unaware of the Yuuzhan Vong threat, decide to take a vacation from the bureaucratic troubles of the Republic and go visit Lando Calrissian at his industrious planet of Dubrillion. Back on Belkaden, Yomin Carr readies the planet for Vong habitation by poisoning the world as the initial step in terraforming and he kills the remaining Ex-Gal-4 scientists personally. Three ExGal-4 members go to Helska IV to investigate what is happening, and two of the members are killed by the Praetorite Vong, while the remaining one, Danni Quee, is captured and tortured for experimentation. But though they settle on Helska IV as secretly as possible, it is noticed nevertheless by the members of the ExGal-4 base on the nearby world of Belkaden, which is also infiltrated by a Yuuzhan Vong agent named Yomin Carr. These distractions allow for the specialist warrior caste, the Praetorite Vong, to establish a base on the frozen backwater world of Helska IV. They are doing this by covertly disrupting the peace established by that of the New Republic ever since the fall of the Galactic Empire years previously.

The alien race known as the Yuuzhan Vong are preparing for their invasion on the Star Wars galaxy. It is the first installment of the New Jedi Order series set in the Star Wars universe. Vector Prime is a science fiction novel by American writer R.
