A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...
Star Wars:
Rise of the New Sith Brotherhood
Episode II
WAY OF THE SITH
More than twenty years have passed since the destruction of the evil Empire's DEATH STAR, and at last peace reigns over the galaxy. The New Republic stretches across the stars uniting all. And from the jungle moon of Yavin IV, where the fall of tyranny began, a New Jedi Order is flourishing, its protective light spreading out far and wide.
But the brighter the light the darker the shadows it casts. Beyond the edges of civilization, in secret places, those who worship evil's might rise once more, biding their time. From the gloom of their strongholds they sharpen weapons of war and dream of the day when they may return at the head of conquering legions.
Though these malign factions are for the moment disunited, scattered, and isolated, they all share the same terrifying goal: that the darkness will rule the galaxy again...
This story is the second of several parts in a fictionalization of past events on various sites this roleplaying community went through previous to this one and serves as a prequel to our original Legends site timeline. The first book can be read here. Many of these story elements have been brought up previously in the archived Legends Fanon, missions or Galaxy sections but this fanfiction explores them in a central, coherent story format. Almost all of the major characters in this storyline were player-characters from the community's many previous sites. This first post serves as a table of contents; I will list all currently published chapters here for easy reference as well as the name of the next upcoming chapter.
Chapter 1: Ni'novia Defiant
Chapter 2: Battle of Yolan
Chapter 3: Shadows of the Ascendancy
Chapter 4: Third Imperium
Chapter 5: Arluna (upcoming)
In the spoiler box below is a character guide, which lists all the major characters that have appeared in this story thus far in order of introduction. Along with this are listed where in the story they first appear, subsequent appearances, and a brief description of the character. The definition I'll be using for a major character is that they appear in more than one chapter. If you haven't already read every chapter then it's best to reference this list sparingly, as an observant reader can figure out a few minor spoilers from a comprehensive reading of this list.
