Waiting In The Dark...

“The Will of the Dark Side is patient. It will wait years, decades, or entire generations before the full extent of its desire is brought to bear. It will wait until the correct weaknesses are exposed, the proper Sith Lords are placed into power, the most crucial of Jedi are struck down, and the right enemy is made broken. It is patient, so we must be ever vigilant…”

-         Master Vandar Tokkare

 “Indeed, the finding of great and powerful Jedi has often been the mark of a great and terrible conflict to come. I wonder, my young Padawan, what great conflict shall your existence stir into being?”

“I do not know, Master. But if I indeed do test the limits of the Jedi as you have said, then perhaps I am bound to fight one who is meant to test of the limits of the Sith.”

“Pray not, young Revan, for such a conflict would leave the galaxy a graveyard of those sacrificed to end it, and I fear there may not be enough life for such a thing…”

-         Master Kreia and Revan

 “He said there was a war coming. That it was waiting in the Unknown Regions, in the dark. Waiting for us to destroy each other…”

“A war? This war?”

“No, not this one… Another one, more terrible… Against an evil we could not begin to comprehend…”

-         Mandalore and Visas Marr

“The greatest power of the Dark Side lies not in any of the many ways it can be used to kill, but rather in its ability to dominate and control. What greater power is there than to turn an adversary into a slave of your will, an extension of it? And those who are exceptionally touched with the Force, yet are not trained to resist its influence: they are the greatest of the Dark Side’s avatars. The ones through whom its will can take actual physical shape…”

-         Sith Holocron

“Anger, fear, aggression: these are but doorways through which the Dark Side’s Will can corrupt and dominate one into its service. But its greatest of servants are not those who give themselves to it for the sake of power, but those who believe in it with all their being as we do with the Light Side. They are the True Sith, the greatest of all threats… And thankfully, we have not seen their kind for several millenniums…”

-         Master Dorak, Chronicler of the Jedi

 “Ahh… so, my General returns to me… Broken, but… the stronger for it… And somehow finds me in this: the darkest corner of the galaxy…Have you come all this way seeking vengeance, or perhaps you may be willing to set our past aside in order to help me stop them… Either way, I am impressed…”

“There will be a time and place for us to finish our match, Revan… At the end of all things… For now, it seems circumstance forces us to stand together once again…”

“As compassionate as my mess of a memory tells me you were…”

“As cocky as you’ve always been…”

-         Revan and Kai Lugo

 “Do you think he will help him?”

“If I recall correctly, General Lugo was not a strong supporter of Revan during the later years of the war, which makes me wonder if Revan intended for him to die along with the rest at Malachor V… That kind of betrayal is not something that can be forgiven easily…”

-         Bastila and Carth Onasi

 “What is this presence?”

“It is the Dark Side, untainted by anger or hatred or lust for power, as pure and empty as it has always truly been…”

“Wielded by whom?”

“A soul that had neither voice nor desire of its own… One that was given over to the darkness without the ability to resist in any way, and is now the strongest because of it…”

“And you’ve spent the last four years fighting it?”

“Trying… failing…”

-         Kai Lugo and Revan

 “Master… it has been the span of over fifteen years since we set your plan into action. And finally… the ones who you have sought have finally entered the limits of our Empire…”

“………”

“We have avoided his detection for the past four years, as you ordered. But now that the other has entered our lands alongside him, they will eventually find us…”

“………”

“Yes, my Master… the war has shaped them as you knew it would… They are strong, and will only become stronger…”

“………”

“They will learn the truth of their origins… the lives that they were stolen from… and the destinies intended for them before even their births…Will that be enough, my Master?”

“………”

“Are you certain, my Master? Why would they desire to destroy us…?”

“………”

“I understand… We shall test them then…throw them into the darkness until they either join you or die…”

“………”

“If they have weaknesses, then we shall find them, my Master, no matter how far they try to distance themselves… and use those weaknesses to break them…”

“………”

“Yes, my Master. All will and has transpired as you have intended… The galaxy is ready for you… They are ready for you… and after so long,  you shall at last claim all that is rightfully yours… Live or die, the Will of the Dark Side be done…”
