"Interesting…"
Moments ago, the Dark Council had witness the Declaration of a New Order in the HoloNet, watching in curiosity as the young Chancellor turned the Galactic Republic into an Empire. It was common knowledge that Harrison Hord was a direct descendent of both Tulak Hord and Darth Revan, and the few that were aware of the Emperor's Sith name could not help but find it amusing that their Emperor's descendent had not just become the ruler of the Republic, but also had turned it into an Empire.
"What exactly is interesting, Marr?" questioned Darth Decimus.
"It seems that the Republic's Chancellor has done what we attempted so many times," replied the Sith Lord. "It is interesting that the Republic would fall to one of its own."
"I believe 'fall' is not the correct word to use here," stated Vowrawn. "I believe 'changed' is more appropriate."
"It doesn't matter if the Republic fell or changed," said Darth Aruk. "What matters here is what the Emperor's reaction will be."
There were murmurs of agreement amongst the Dark Councillors.
"We don't have to concern ourselves with that," declared Darth Tyranus.
"Explain Tyranus," demanded Marr.
"The Supreme Chancellor and I discussed this very event when we met, and he expressed his worry at the Empire's reaction," explained the former Banite Sith. "Afterwards I spoke with our Emperor, and he approved of Hord's plan."
"And why weren't we informed of it Tyranus?" demanded Zhorrid.
"I must have forgotten to mention it," he claimed. "In any case, if the Emperor saw it fit for you to known, then he would have told you himself."
Zhorrid glared at her fellow Dark Councillor, but remained silent on her seat.
"Let us not enter unnecessary confrontations," spoke Vowrawn. "I agree with Tyranus on this matter. Had the Emperor saw it fit for us to know, then he would have told us himself."
"Then things will continue as before," spoke Darth Nox. "I suggest however, that we keep an eye on the Galactic…Empire. We can't be too careful with them, especially after this sudden change."
"Agreed," said Marr. "I don't believe that the Galactic Emperor's intentions have been fully revealed to us."
"Quite so," agreed Mortis. "There is something…strange about Harrison Hord."
"Zhorrid, what the name of that resourceful agent on your sphere?" asked Rictus.
"Which one?"
"The one who killed that idiotic Jedi Master in Yavin 4," clarified the head of the Sphere of Mysteries.
"I believe that the Jedi you are referring to was Quinlan Vos." stated Tyranus, receiving a nod from Rictus.
"The agent you speak about is Lana Beniko, former advisor to Darth Arkous," revealed Zhorrid. "She is currently part of the investigation regarding that heretic cult of Darth Revan in Dromund Kaas."
"I suggest we send her to investigate Hord," said Rictus. "I do believe she has enough skills to keep an eye on the Republic's new Emperor."
"Your idea has merit…" said Zhorrid. "Very well, she will be reassigned."
"Do we have any other matters to discuss?" asked Marr.
None of the other Dark Councillors spoke.
"Then I declare this session over."
Hord Apartment, 500 Republica, Senate District, Coruscant
"What…what just happened?"
Sirius Black's question was a thought shared by many inside the room.
What they had just witnessed was unthinkable to many of them, not just to Lily and James, but to those who were against the so called "light". Even Voldemort and the present Death Eaters were having a hard time grasping what they had seen.
"The birth of a new order in the galaxy," said a woman who had entered the room, accompanied by a teenage boy.
They turned around to face her, but the eyes of most fell on the boy next to her. There were features on his face that were unmistakable, and some were shared with the woman. And few wizards realized the implications.
"Who are you?" asked Daniel, eyeing the woman carefully.
"To the Sith, I am Bastila Shan, Darth Revan's wife," she revealed. "In here, I am Bastila Hord, aunt of Harrison Hord."
Many people gaped at her, both because she was Harry's wife, but also because she was, at least in appearance, older than him.
"Y-You're…you're Harry's w-wife?" stuttered James.
"Yes. That would make you my father-in-law," she replied casually, whilst observing the other wizards. "Do you understand why Revan wanted you to see this?"
"He…he said that he wanted us to see where we all failed," spoke Lily. "How our action led to what he became today."
One of Bastila's eyebrows was raised.
"You say that as if it was a bad thing."
The wizards looked at her in confusion.
"Isn't it?" asked Sirius.
"Had Revan not been part of the events of the galaxy, then the galaxy as we know it today would not exist," she said. "In our time, great threats to the galaxy were neutralized by my husband. The Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders, the Sith Empire under the first Sith Emperor, were the main ones, and he subjugated the two."
"But…someone else could have done what he did, right?" asked James.
Bastila simply shook her head.
"In his quests, Revan possessed a few advantages that were critical to his success," said Bastila "His strong connection to the Force was perhaps the greatest of all. During the Battle of Dromund Kaas, when he and….a friend fought against the first Sith Emperor, Revan fully opened himself to the Force, both to the dark side and to the light side. In order to defeat our opponent, he achieved Oneness, and only then he was able to slay the Sith Emperor."
"How is that even possible?" inquired Voldemort "How can one be light and dark simultaneously?"
"With the Force, nothing is impossible," said a voice, those inside the room looking for its source.
Out of nowhere, a ghostly figure of an old robed woman appeared, a hood covering her eyes. The wizards looked at the apparition, never having seen something like it. It was different from the usual ghosts they knew.
"You…"whispered Bastila, recognizing the woman "I thought you had become one with the Force."
"I denied the will of the Force," declared the Force Ghost. "Neither the netherworld nor Chaos have claimed me. And so, I shall remain."
"Excuse me, but…who are you?" asked Daniel.
The apparition turned towards the Sith apprentice.
"I am Kreia, once a Jedi Master and a Dark Lord of the Sith…and now neither," said the Force Ghost. "To your brother, I was his rescuer and first master in the ways of the Force."
The wizards who knew the story gaped at the woman.
"You were the one that took Harry from my sister's home," realized Lily.
The former Lord of Betrayal nodded.
"The events of that night were of great importance to me," she declared. "I entered your home to seek the strong presence in the Force which I felt, but then you were attacked."
"But…we were protected by the Fidelius Charm," said James "How could have you-"
"As I said, nothing is impossible with the Force," spoke Kreia. "When that curse was directed at him, only to be reflected at its caster with a powerful blast of Force energy, I knew there that he was the one who I had been searching for."
Kreia's words soon registered in the minds of the wizards, realizing what she had said.
"W-What?" said Daniel. "You're saying that the Killing Curse was directed at…Revan?"
"The scar on his original body's forehead is a mark of said curse, and on it was a malevolent presence which I removed," she declared.
"But that means that Daniel is not…is not the Boy-Who-Lived…" said Dumbledore, who, alongside the wizards, was in shock with the revelation.
Voldemort was the one who was most surprised. He had been after the wrong twin for more than a decade? Because of that old man's mistake? All that time wasted trying to kill the wrong Potter…and now the true Boy-Who-Lived was out of his reach, and not just in distance.
"The events of today, as you certainly realize, are the testament of Revan's work, which was made possible not just by me, but you all as well," she stated. "But do not take Revan's words as mere mockery of you. Consider it as his way of expressing his 'gratitude' towards you, not mattering if you deserve it or not."
Kreia's apparition disappeared, leaving a room filled with stunned wizards and a few confused Sith.
Jedi Temple, Temple District, Coruscant
The Jedi Council was concerned.
They had been informed that the Supreme Chancellor had convoked an Extraordinary Session of the Senate, but they could feel a growing disturbance in the Force, almost as if it was…excited? No…it simply couldn't be that.
Their meeting had ended a few minutes ago, and while the other masters had gone to other parts of the Temple, Yoda, Mace Windu and Obi-Wan were walking near to the entrance, having a conversation not just about the Supreme Chancellor and his intentions, but also about the efforts of the Order to transport its members and high priority objects to the Hidden Temples. They had originally attempted to use Tython, but the planet was not exactly pleased with the sole presence of the Light Side of the Force, leading to their evacuation of the planet before a Force Storm began to develop.
"And the younglings?" asked Obi-Wan.
"We have managed to secretly transport a few of them to the enclaves, but progress continues to be slow," said Windu.
"Perhaps we should try to transport one at a time alongside a Knight or Master, pretending its some sort of mission," suggested Obi-Wan.
"Dangerous, it is," affirmed Yoda. "Suspect, the Chancellor would."
"Regardless, we have already begun to construct new temples," said Windu. "Scout teams have already been sent to the Unknown Regions and the Rishi Maze, although our best choice for a safe haven would be the Rishi Maze, since it is outside the influence of both the Republic and the Sith Empire."
"For now," said Obi-Wan "We don't know if either the Chancellor or the Sith will turn their attentions to the Maze."
"The Chancellor wouldn't," said Windu. "He is far more concerned with keeping us and the Republic in line."
However, at that moment, a new voice joined the conversation.
"There is no more Republic for Harrison Hord to be concerned with."
The three Jedi turned towards the newcomer, and noticed that it was both Bail Organa and Padmé Amidala. The three Jedi Masters also noticed that the two senators looked especially sombre.
"Senator Organa. Senator Amidala," greeted Obi-Wan. "What do you mean with 'there is no more Republic'?"
It was Padmé who spoke. "Minutes ago, Chancellor Hord convoked an extraordinary session of the Senate. He spoke of the war against the Separatists and the Sith, and after that he declared himself as the Galactic Emperor."
"There is no longer a Republic," stated Organa. "As of today, Coruscant has become the capital of the new Galactic Empire, with Harrison Hord as its emperor."
The three Jedi were speechless. Such a thing was inconceivable. For the Republic which had lasted for more than twenty thousand years, to be transformed into something else…it was surreal. The fact that a former Jedi was behind said transformation contributed to that very sensation.
"H-How?" asked Obi-Wan. "How did he do that? How did the Senate allow that?"
"The entire Senate approved of his plans," explained Bail. "Even we were indirectly forced to vote for the Empire. We knew it would be suicide if we voted against it."
"The Senate will continue to exist, but the Emperor will continue to have the same powers he held during his time as Chancellor," said Padmé. "Perhaps even more. We don't know how many things Hord will change."
"Troubling, this is," commented Yoda.
"Indeed," said Windu. "We thank you for coming here to tell us about this development. However, were the Jedi mentioned by the…Emperor?"
Bail shook his head. "No, and there has been no indication that he wants to act against you. But knowing the dislike that he has towards your order, I would prepare for the worst."
The Jedi were certainly preparing for the worst, and doing so as fast as they could. But right now, the galaxy was in its most critical moment, compared only to both the Great Hyperspace War and the Russan Reformation. But while the Jedi Order was preparing for their possible escape, the newly born Galactic Empire was quickly being reformed into its Emperor's vision. However, no matter how quick it would be, there was no way that such a change and evolution would take place in just a few weeks.
The Codex:
Sith Empire – Created from the union of the pre-Republic Sith Empire and the exiled Dark Jedi from the Hundred Year Darkness, the ancient Sith Empire now stands at its peak. After several conflicts which have shaped the True Sith into what they are today, the Sith, alongside the rest of the civilized galaxy, have entered a new era. With the dawn of what its inhabitants are calling the Third Golden Age of the Sith, the Sith Empire now co-exists with the recently formed Galactic Empire, both secretly ruled by the same entity, yet by two distinct individuals.
Galactic Empire – Formed from a stable and somewhat powerful Galactic Republic, the Galactic Empire, known also as the New Order, is the culmination of thousands of years of progress and change that have occurred in the heart of the Republic, and by consequence, the galaxy. Ruled by the powerful Galactic Emperor, the dawn of a New Order also saw the birth of a new era, known as the Imperial Era by the inhabitants of the Galactic Empire. Together with the Sith Empire, it is ruled by the same entity, yet by two distinct individuals.
The Emperor – Immortal, powerful and enigmatic, this Force entity was originally born as Harry Potter, a Tellurian Sith on the planet known as Earth (now Tellus). Since, then, he has taken many identities, amongst them Harrison Thul, the Revanchist, Darth Revan, the Sith Emperor, Tenraul Hord, Cortous VI Hord, and finally, his most recent one, Harrison Hord. An unrivalled master in the ways of the Force and in galactic scale manipulation, nothing will stop this ancient being from fulfilling his goals, not even death. After all, how can death claim the one which has conquered it?
