When the galaxy takes something from me, I want the power to let go… and I want the power to heal the echo when it's gone." ―Mira, to the Jedi Exile I want to be strong! I don't want to be afraid or alone anymore.I… I… I don't want to keep running, and looking, and never feel like I'm finding what I'm looking for. Having pledged themselves to Meetra Surik, the true Jedi became the foundation of a new Jedi Order. After being defeated by Surik, Kreia referred to her student's disciples as the "true Jedi" upon which the future of the Order would be built. Vrook, Kavar, and Zez-Kai Ell all fell to the coming of Kreia, who murdered them in the ruins of the Jedi Enclave.

Just prior to the Battle of Telos IV, as agreed with her, Meetra Surik had what remained of the Jedi High Council assembled on Dantooine, but again Atris would not expose herself. Atris resided in her secret Jedi Academy on Telos IV, unknown to the Sith and Jedi alike, as she was to attend the conclave on Katarr and was assumed to have died there. Master Vash travelled to Korriban, although she was murdered by Darth Sion. Jedi Masters and Councilors Zez-Kai Ell, Kavar, Vrook Lamar, Lonna Vash, and Atris, were Lost Jedi, as was Deesra Luur Jada. Surviving members of the Jedi Council were known as Lost Jedi.

The surviving Jedi had actually gone into self-imposed exile, hiding their presence until the Sith threat that was stalking them could be found.

If you find them, encourage them to gather on Dantooine-from there, we can call a Council and see what can be done." ―Atris speaks to Meetra Surik regarding the Lost Jedi
