In the final days of the Clone Wars Jedi Padawan Joc Sah was deployed to the brutal battle
of Ragmar, deep in the outer rim, with orders to take control of one of the final separatist
holdouts for the Republic.
Tragically however, as he and his men were about to engage the separatist leadership
on the planet, Joc Sah’s once loyal clone troopers turned their weapons on him and attempted
to blast him with a barrage of fire.
So, I’m going to breakdown the tragic story of Commander Joc Sah and how he was forced
to fight alongside a group of Ragtag separatist leaders in order to survive.

We’ve also got a massive Chapter 10 of the Mandalorian dropping this friday, so make
sure to stay tuned to the channel for content on that.
So, the story begins in the orbit of the distant outer rim world of Ragmar V, with Jedi Commander
Joc Sah reporting to his Master, Sev, that he has managed to enter the thick atmosphere
of the planet without incident.
Joc Sah is unsure why he is being deployed to a backwater world in the middle of nowhere
and not helping with the real battles, but his master quickly reminds him that every
battle is important and any one could become the key to Republic victory.
Joc Sah understands this, but similar to most young Jedi, was hoping for some more exciting
action on his first solo mission.
Eventually, Commander Sah’s republic gunship touches down on a cliff below, and Seargent
Remy gives his Jedi a briefing on the situation.
Remy notes that there is a primitive settlement nearby, with several life forms detected,
prompting Joc Sah to move his men forward, with the hope that he won’t have to fight
them to gain their support.
While this is going on however, a rag tag group of separatists finally scouts the arrival
of the Republic on their world, and worries that trouble is on the horizon.
The separatists then grab their blast launcher, rapidly loading it up with the final rocket
that they have left.
The group then fires the rocket, sending it screeching through the air, causing the Republic
gunship to erupt into a red and yellow fireball.
Thankfully, most of Joc Sah’s men are unharmed by the blast, but it quickly causes the Jedi
commander to lose any sympathy he held for the planet.
The main separatist leader, named Gaan, also realizes that things are about to get extremely
messy, ordering his men to bolster their defences quickly and prepare for a brutal onslaught
from the Clone Forces.
As Gaan and the separatists rally in the main town of the planet, Joc Sah and his men rush
to meet them, prepared for the fight of their life.
In the same way, Gaan and his band of Separatist scoundrels realize that they are also in for
an incredibly difficult fight, but they pledge to stand their ground and not allow the Republic
to bring their war to the homeland.
The group loudly cheer in agreement, before Gaan mentions to the others that they can
kill whoever they want.
But.. but must leave the Jedi for him.
Following this, Joc Sah orders Sergeant Remy to split his men to secure the flanks of the
city, and he himself comes face to face with the Gaan.
The separatist and the Jedi are locked into an intense staredown, with Gaan ordering his
men to wait for a signal.
Following this, he firmly warns Commander Sah that the Republic landed on the wrong
planet and are certainly not welcome on Ragmar V. Commander Joc Sah resopnds to this by saying
“there’s an assault ship in orbit that says otherwise’, brining the two the edge
of the a vicious battle to the death, but before they can engage in combat, something
chilling happens.
*execute order by Palpatine*
Chancellor Palpatine delivers the tragic message to his men, telling them that the Jedi have
betrayed the Republic and attempted to assassinate him.
Sergeant Remmy is shocked by this, but passes on the command to his men, to execute Protocol
66.
Remy’s men then swiftly line up, directing their blasters at both the Jedi and the separatist,
sending a flurry of blaster bolts rushing towards the two.
Gaan is in disbelief at the situation, ordering his men to fire, not understanding what is
truly happening.
Gaan’s men then quickly inform him that the Clones aren’t actually firing at them,
but instead the Jedi.
Immediately following this, Padawan Joc Sah crashes through a nearby window, sending shattered
glass flying everywhere, as the clones continue to fire on him.
Commander Sah demands that his Clone Troopers stop firing on him, telling them firmly that
that is an order.
Of course, Order 66 overrides any order given to the Clones from the Jedi, meaning they
continue to barrage the nearby area with blue blaster fire.
And let me know down below what you think of Commander Sah.
Do you think he was ready to be deployed into battle or was he not mature enough to lead
Clones to their potential deaths?
Let me know down below.
Gaan then becomes angry with the Clone Troopers, shouting that the Jedi was supposed to be
his for the taking, brutally blasting one trooper through the chest.
Once he realizes the overwhelming manpower that is against him however, he quickly understands
that he has no chance facing down the Clones, and leaps through the same window as commander
Sah.
Soon after, the other separatist scoundrels come face to face with Remmy and the other
men, but since they have the high Ground, Remy rushes to nearby cover in order to continue
the intense firefight.
Unfortunately, one of the Rodian separatists is brutally blasted through the chest by Sergeant
Remmy, to the shock of the others.
Inside the building that they are taking cover in, Commander Sah frantically attempts to
contact his master, pleading with him to come in… but unfortunately there is nobody on
the other end to answer.
Master Sev has been brutally slaughtered by his ARC Trooper, leaving his cold body lying
on the floor, surrounded by the many unfortunate Clone Troopers that he took with him.
Because of this, Separatist Gaan offers to team up with Commader Sah, but Sah is initially
very reluctant to do so, asking “Why should I trust you?”.
Gaan then quickly responds “Because I’m not the one shooting at you…
yet”.
With no other choice, Commander Sah takes the offer, and surges out of the building
with his emerald green blade providing protection against blaster fire for Gaan.
One of the Clone Troopers then viciously lobs a blast charge direct into the path of Joc
Sah and Gaan, but the Jedi is quickly able to slow the charge, and send it rushing back
to the Clones, badly injuring the trooper who threw it.
Following this, Gaan and Commander Sah continue rushing forward side by side, before Joc Sah
brutally slashes one of his own men with his bright green lightsaber.
Gaan is also forced to kill Sergeant Remmy, horrifically blasting him directly through
the chest, ending his life immediately.
Commander Sah quietly takes a moment to mourn the tragic death of his sergeant, remembering
all of the sacrifices he had made for him and master, when fighting together previously.
Although this time, Joc Sah was in command, even further troubling him.
And let me know who you think the saddest Order 66 death was.
It can be either a Clone Trooper or Jedi.
Sergeant Remy is certainly going somewhere on my list after his tragic demise, but Commander
Bly and Jesse are also definitely up there.
Commander Sah’s turmoil quickly changes to confusion, as he asks himself who could
have given them the order to fire on him.
Joc Sah once again desperately attempts to contact his master, but soon loses hope, realizing
that something terrible has happened.
Gaan then tells the Jedi something he knows is true, but doesn’t want to hear.
He tells Joc Sah that he has now been betrayed, and is now one of them.
A group of outcasts, fighting for their freedom from the Republic, and to keep their world
free from the war.
The two quickly shake hands and agree to a partnership, but they don’t have much time
to think about it, as they realize that an enormous horde of Clone Forces will soon be
sent to the planet.
Gaan, with the support of his troops, who come from an assortment of species, tells
Joc Sah, “Do we look like the type that run away from a fight”.
This gives the Jedi Padawan the confidence he needed to prepare for bloodbath which is
soon sure to ravage this remote world.
Soon after, General Sev’s ARC trooper, along with a large fleet of Republic gunships arrive
on the surface of the dustry world, beginning the long march towards the town centre.
An unthinkable amount of Clones rapidly storm the city, as the separatist outcasts begin
their defence of their beloved land.
Yellow ARC orders his men to Fire at will, beginning the most intense firefight ever
seen on this backwater world.
A flurry of blaster bolts flies in both directions, as the Jedi Padawan then leads his former
enemies into battle, with his flickering green blade.
Unfortunately, those are his last known actions, ever recorded.
The fate of Padawan Joc Sah and his new separatist allies is unfortunately still unknown, but
we can only hope that they made it through.
Let me know what you think happened to the group.
Did the clones overpower them, or was a Jedi simply too much for them?
Also tell me who your favourite was.
So that is the story of the Separatist leader who was forced to team up with a Jedi Padawan
after Order 66.
