- "Lead the Kashyyyk team, you will, Reath Silas."
"Me? I wasn't knighted that long ago. And this mission is vitally important, doubly so now that Nan is involved and we may be seeking this Dr. Mkampa—"
"You. You and no other."
"As the Force wills it. Thank you. I hope to deserve your trust." - ―Jedi Master Yoda and Reath Silas
The Kashyyyk team was a team organized by the Jedi Order to travel to[1] the Mid Rim[3] planet Kashyyyk after the affliction known as the blight was discovered there. The team was led by Jedi Knight Reath Silas.

The team were transported to Kashyyyk by the crew of the Byne Guild starship Vessel, which consisted of Affie Hollow, Leox Gyasi, and Geode.[1]
