Luke Skywalker jolted awake drenched in cold sweat. His dreams were haunted by visions of what he believed to be events from thousands of years ago. The dreams had become worse recently, so much worse. He ran his hands over his face feeling the lines of age, what was causing these horrific dreams?

He rolled stiffly from his bed as his comlink buzzed loudly. Luke fumbled groggily with the controls of the buzzing disc-like comlink mumbling quiet frustrations to the wretched thing. Finally Luke managed to hit the right switch and the comlink flickered to Life.

"Skywalker." Luke used his usual greeting not even bothering to see who was trying to contact him in the pre-dawn hours of the day.

"Luke." It was Leia, Luke's twin sister. "I need your help. We've received some add reports from the outer rim. Specifically Korriban and the surrounding systems. There are vague rumors of a Sith threat."

"What!?" Luke trembled slightly at the mention of the word sith. "There's nothing else you can tell me?"

"No. Like I said, it's mostly just vague rumors." Leia replied. "Only you, Han, and myself will go. There's no need to raise suspicion amongst the jedi or anyone else concerning the sith until we know more.

"Good idea. Thank you for contacting me, Leia. You know as well as I do, even if the rumors are vague, if they concern the sith, then they warrant further investigation. We can't take any chances. When will you and Han be picking me up?" Luke asked already grabbing his lightsaber and searching the floor around his cot for his shirt.

"Han and I will be there in about an hour and a half in the Falcon. Leia explained, "We'll see you soon."

"Leia wait before you go, I need to tell you something." Immediately Leia knew that something was wrong.

"What is it?" She asked.

"I've been having a lot of strange visions lately. I think their visions of the past. And I don't mean our past, I mean like thousands of years in the past. During something called the 'Jedi Civil War'."

"So what does that mean?"

"Just let me finish. I see a place called the Star Forge, I'm not sure what it was, but it was clearly a powerful tool of the dark side. I also see a place called Malachor V, it's the first time I've ever heard of a place like that. There are also two people of significance as well, the first is named Revan, the second name is impossible to discover. She was simply referred to as 'Exile' in my visions."

"What do you think the visions mean?"

"I'm not sure, but I sense there is more at work here than we can possibly hope to understand."

Luke switched off the comlink and made his way towards the Jedi archives. He referenced all material related to the time period involving the Jedi Civil War. He downloaded the relevant files to a data pad, and proceeded to prepare for his departure. He would review the files en-route.

Luke stood on the landing pad waiting the arrival of the Millennium Falcon. The ship landed and the loading ramp lowered with a quiet hiss. Leia stood there her brown hair lightly peppered with flecks of gray, a weary smile touched her lips. Luke grinned, it was just like old times, an adventure with no certain ending in sight.

He quickly boarded the Falcon and made his way to the cockpit. He exchanged a nod with Han before settling in with his data pad and reading all the details of Revan and the mysterious 'Exile'.

They had been en-route for two and a half hours now. Han was had been on countless hyperspace trips, but this one ranked, by far, among the most boring. Leia was sitting next to him in the co-pilot's chair and Luke was in the main hold, still studying that data pad he had brought with him. Han was officially bored.

He almost missed the days when they were getting shot at every five minutes and there was one bad guy to focus on. Like the Empire or the Yhuzzan Vong. Back then he felt like he was part of something, he had a purpose, and he was never bored.

His boredom ended abruptly with upon Luke's entrance.

"Drop us out of hyperspace now!" Luke shouted as he came running into the cockpit, "Change course for Dantooine!"

"Luke what's wrong?" Leia asked, "What's on Dant..." Even as she spoke she felt the wave in the force. "Han he's right! Change course now!"

"Will somebody please fill me in? What's going on?" Han protested.

In unison Luke and Leia both shouted, "Now!".

The blue tunnel that was hyperspace disappeared and stretched white lines shrank into he tiny white white dots of stars against the black of space as Han dropped the Millennium Falcon out of light speed in order to make the necessary course corrections. A couple of seconds later and the stars stretched into white lines once again and the ship vanished into hyperspace, bound for Dantooine.
