Tales #1 - Why does Obi-Wan use a blaster in "Life, Death, and the Living Force"?

In this Legends story originally from Tales #1, Obi-Wan uses a blaster. Initially, I thought he didn't have his lightsaber for some reason as when he is attacked by a Squollyhawlk at the start of the story, he does not use his lightsaber and asks Qui-Gon to ready his own. Then, Obi-Wan uses a blaster when they are attacked that night (see the image in my post). However, near the end of the story, he does have and use his lightsaber when fighting the Silan.

Does anyone know the reason why? In or out of the fiction?
