  The Darkest Shadow: Sayah's History

"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.

will write more...please post opinions

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

The Republic had fallen. The Republic, that edifice and monument to the triumph of reason and justice, had crumbled and its shards had been polymerized into an Empire beyond the wildest dreams of any petty dictator in the history of the galaxy. The galaxy had been taken in the unassuming manner and charisma of one man. That man had attained office during a time of crisis, a time when it seemed the bloated corpse of the Republic would finally fragment, leaving only anarchy, greed, and corruption as a memorial. The Naboo crisis had shown the galaxy the true state of affairs: democracy as a system was a dinosaur. What more natural then, than to elect a strong-man as leader and to trade security for their rights? The legacy of the previous Chancellor lived on ,however. Disgruntled at their new fetters, corporations and organizations which had benefited from the corruption rose in open revolt sparking the galaxy-wide Clone Wars. Now, the war was finally over. The last fragments of the Republic had been reduced to dust and a new period in galactic history was dawning. Above the projector, a video of a chamber was being shown. The beings within gave a speaker above a central tower a standing ovation as he spoke. "'the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society, which I assure you will last for ten thousand years. An Empire that will continue to be ruled by this august body and a sovereign ruler chosen for life. An Empire ruled by the majority, ruled by a new constitution... Say it with me! Safety, Security, Justice, and Peace! Safety, Security, Justice, and Peace!All the beings within, as if under a spell chanted along with the sinister and hooded being who was the former Chancellor now Emperor of the galaxy.' This was Emperor Palpatine earlier today, in which he declared a New Order and promised to bring peace and justice to the galaxy. There have been massive protests on Alderaan and several other planets, although the response by Coruscanti was overall positive. There have been rumors of the death of CIS General Grievous and possibly the Separatist leaders. Our war correspondants have confirmed the deaths of several members of the Jedi Council. Clone troopers are stationed at the landing pads of the burning Jedi Temple and there is specualtion as to the fate of some of the more prominent Jedi, among them Anakin Skywalker. We now broadcast a statement by Imperial Intelligence Director Isar-" The new broadcast stopped as Sayah shut down the Holonet connection. He exited the craft and looked around him. The planet Nar Shadda was singularly unattractive.(will expand)
