The dead speak! A Sith cult within the Unknown Regions has heard a mysterious whispering in their minds, a threat of REVENGE in the sinister voice of the late EMPEROR PALPATINE.
Meanwhile, the brave RESISTANCE dispatches secret agents to gather intelligence, training for battle against the diabolical FIRST ORDER.
Supreme Leader KYLO REN builds his army and rages against the Resistance, determined to destroy any threat to his power...
Look, say what you will about the sequel trilogy (just do it somewhere other than here), but one thing is indisputable: Kylo Ren is grade-A darklord material. Topics discussed include:
- How we managed to have Kylo Ren in this timeline, seeing as how we killed off Luke and Leia in utero;
- Why the first hour or so of The Force Awakens is the most dramatically interesting time for this setting, offering plenty of story opportunities other than "hey look, it's the Empire but not as cool";
- Hidden Sith cults, secret treasures, magic knives, and other things that make Rise of Skywalker a D&D McGuffin hunt;
- An AU that allows you to make Sidious the darklord of the entire Stellar Archipelago;
- and more!
