"The brightest light casts the darkest shadow."
Sith Saying
Planet Adnogor III
the last minutes of the Clone Wars...
The light from the explosion was like a small sun going nova. Commander Jorgen Asana winced and momentarily shut his eyes before waving the troopers under his command forward. Around him, armoured troopers, mostly clones, were advancing into faceless war machines and mowing them down. Above him, an ARC-170 and a pair of V-wings streaked into the droid army, dropping EMP weapons as they did so. The resulting explosions decimated the CIS forces and dazzled the photoreceptors of those droids it didn't vaporize. With the decisive air victory, the planet was all but taken. Suddenly, Asana recieved a private High Command transmission. Agast, he stared at the hooded creature staring at him from the Chancellor's office. "It is time.", the shadow was saying. "Execute Order 66". Asana was taken aback by the shocking order, but composed himself, remembering he was invisible under the helmet. "It shall be done, my lord", he found himself saying. Satisfied, the creature ended the transmission. He turned to the troopers under his command, speaking to them all: "You all saw the message. Execute the order but..."he hesitated,then continued. " the Jedi were our commanders. Kill as quickly and as mercifully as possible. Snipers, to the rooftops. Are there any questions?" The troopers shook their helmeted heads, then hurried to obey.
On many planets, Order 66 did not go as planned. On Adnogor III, sheer luck was the factor that saved the life of Jedi Knight Damonor Sahid and his padawan, Geronad Fanid. Together, they mowed down the first troopers to fire on them, then fled into the urban wasteland, hoping to evade AT-RTs and probe droids. They were unsucessful. However, they took down Commander Asana and many of his troopers.
Sayah heard the news with numb disbelief. He looked at the twin boxes on the floor of his bunk with shock. In the smaller one, about the size of a sabbacc deck were his father's ashes. In the other was a spacesuit helmet and his personal effects, He left the planet, feeling hollow inside.

Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night."
