Prologue
Opening Statement
Broken and banished to Helghan during the Old Great Galactic War, the inhabitants of helghan no longer human, evolved in the hardships of their harsh planet and they renamed themselves as Helghast with proof that their filtration mask to mark symbols of pride in replacing their shame . Now the Helghast are now the vengeful Militarized Super Power and became the galaxy's ultimate threats in the name of the force. After many millenniums ago in isolation, now the Helghast return stronger than ever with hateful black hearts to reclaim what was rightfully theirs. Fighting and conquering across the galaxy to take revenge for their ancestors agonizing past. They march across the galaxy with nothing but ragefull hatred and an endurance only a few souls can match. Their thirst for vengeance and bloodshed is still powerful that both Rebels or Imperials of the Galactic Empire neither sentient being or light/dark force users still look upon the emblem of the Helghast Triad with fear as they remember the terrible war that shook the galaxy to the core already enacted. The Helghast each is an army of his/her own and woe betide any of those dare to cross their path in the name of Helghan.
They once flee their old galaxy away from the sith empire-Republic war out from the outer rims into the unknown regions.
Two helghast fighters flew though the dark space through the asteroid field as they turn , their wings display the emblem of the Triad
They were on the run for years until Helghan was discovered by them while the rest of the galaxy thought those who flee had perished.
The Helghast fighters guided past a stream of asteroids into a gas cloud.
Once settled on Helghan , they endured years of hardships, poverty and salvation while their hatred at the galaxy grew. Overtime, they were growing stronger.
Out of the gas cloud , the fighters raced forward to join the formation of thousands of aerial star craft spiraling around a planet. A ship with hammerhead fins with the triad on it's broadside as the fighter flew over the ship.
Until one man united the people of Helghan under a glorious promise and ultimately rename themselves as the Helghast.
Helghast soldiers in massive formations spread across the standing grounds with hundreds of banners flying with crimson red. A massive MAWLR stood with pride and glory as warship hover overhead.
In time they grew stronger. Now they were too strong to the core and are ready to take back the galaxy that is rightfully their.
Massive armada was gathered in space , ships sized to stardestroyers ranging from cruisers, battleships , carriers ,giant warships and dreadnaughts stood in formation
One goal for the Helghast Empire ; let the galaxy burn.
A man in a suit mixed with robes stood on the balcony of his complex overlooking the massive city of slums and mixtures of rundown apartment buildings before looking at the fleet massing in the skies. A simile formed on the older man's lips before walking away into the complex.
"It begins."
Helghan
Pyrrhus City (Capital of Helghan)
0 BBY
Scolar Visari walked towards the podium that sat in the center of the large stage on the outskirts of the Autarch Palace. Three Massive banners represent the triad flapped bellow him. Infront of Visari was a massive crowd gathered at the rally waiting for Visari to begin his speech.
Visari was flanked by Colonel Male Radec along with another man dressed in a grey suit equipped with Commando amor armed down to the feet ( Helghast Commando outfit from Killzone Shadow Fall) ; a shoulder plate amor represent a symbol of a wolf and lightsaber cross. Covered in a black hood with a facemask of six small glowing orbs on the visors eye piece. A black saber strapped on his back along with an assault rifle. They were followed by warriors dressed in back amor with grey strips with dark sabers behind their backs along with Visari's daughter Hera and Lady Visari the husband of Scolar Visari.
They all stood side by side with Visari as he stepped up to the podium , Visair grabbed both slides of the podium before raising his chin to stand his ground infront of the crowd.
"My people , sons and daughters of Helghan , many centuries ago we been a broken nation. Shammed , shunned , opposed and conquered by those we sought to escape. I remember the tales of despair that our ancestors endured by those responsible for tormenting us and robbing us of our will and soul." Spatted Visari pounded a fist and pointed on his left.
"Ten years ago, I asked for time and that time has been grant by from you . You; the strength in my arm and the holders of my dreams."
A row of Helghast soldiers stood vigilant and a soldier along with look up proudly.
"Our ancestors remember and witness the darkest time of our history when they cast us all to the edge of the galaxy to die in banishment , but wrong they are , Our forefathers embarked on the greatest exodus in the history of the history of mankind. An Exodus for freedom. We thank the force and Helghan for that freedom."
Flashback reveal an armada of refugee ships arriving at light brownish and grey planet , A fleet of ships flew across the electrical storm with clouds sparked lighting before descended on the ground .
" Our new world changed our fact ,it weaken us but we are getting stronger."
At a refugee camp , people struggling to stay warm in their huts as the toxic storm raged on . A bald man coughed out blood on a bunk with veins sticking out on the skin pleading for a respirator . A family of three huddled together against the heater for warmth.
In a local hospital, doctors and nurse struggled to do their runs. In a hallway packed with doctors with mask and patients on stretchers caught violently. One of the doctors place a breather on one of the patients on a bed ; pumping oxygen in the mouth allow the man to relax.
"The time you have given me ; I have rebuild our people , our nation and our pride."
Soldiers dressed in combat formed with weapons on their hands ; both men and women marching across alongside tanks and mechs in large formations as the Helghast armies mobilized for war. The third army was growing in an astonishing rate during Visari's reign five times every month.
"Our enemies at home have been reeducated and now have newfound insight to our cause."
A soldier forced three men on their knees on the street and an officer executed them one by one.
"On this day we stand united once more . On this day our enemies will curse the day we take back our birth right from us. This is the day we take back our rightful place in the galaxy. Let the galaxy curse the day we return for our rightful place in the galaxy."
As a thunderous roar of cheers across the crowd.
Thousands of soldiers rushing towards the transports and drop ships waiting on the airfield , officers barking orders to the troops . Supplies and vehicles loaded on the ships and star fighters and star jets flew along the warships of Helghan in the skies. A massive battleship rose from the landing pad of the port.
A fleet of Helghast ships prepared to wrap to their destination all went to hyperspace.
" On this day ,On this day, those driven to divide us will hear our voice! On this day, we shall act as one, and we shall be ignored NO MORE! "
A space station monitoring a planet in the outer rim under imperial rule along with a two star destroyers hovering over the orbit face off a massive fleet.
Officers on the control bridge of the station busy in their work that they ignored a massive fleet appeared in a blink of an eye to their horror. A radar officer manning a station looked with shock as the radar screen blinking red.
A pair of officers turned to the bridge scene with shock and horror as another massive fleet just came out of hyperspace.
An ensign and another officer watch in complete horror as the unknown warships unleashed a barrage of laser lances , plasma/ energy streams, railgun rounds , thermal blast , artillery shells, missiles and Arc energy beams into the star destroyers and patrol ships into flaming debris . Turbolaser defence succumbed to the relentless assault.
One of the star destroyers covered in flames as the ship pummel down the surface.
Then a squad of Helghast soldiers stormed the control deck firing their Sta-52 assault rifles killing everyone present in the deck taking control of the station. A Helghast Assault soldier stood infront of the view port watching the invasion.
Another wave of transports supported by battlecruisers begun planetary assault. Overlord drop ships and ATACs flew from their carriers into the Imperial City ; the aerial vehicles dropping off soldiers or firing missiles.
A helghast soldier emerged from the transport rushing into battle.
A Helghast cruisers dropping off a platoon of tanks and fresh ground troops in the city middle ready to take the city. Civilians found themselves running for their lives as the Imperials stationed on the city start to fighting for their lives.
The intense battle raged across the city as the helghast forces charging on the streets , crushing the imperials attempt to coordinate defences and slaughtering those who attempt to flee. Rockets , artillery shells , turbo laser bolts and lance beams raining down on imperial positions.
A burning AT ST collapsed in the street as a helghast light hover tank rumbled past the wreckage. A stormtrooper collapsed to the ground with a part of helmet visor destroyed revealing a wide horrified eye with a Helghast soldier stood over with a rifle smoking.
Thousands of Helghast soldiers stormed the government main building , killing the governor and throwing his body out the window. A squad of Helghast soldier on top of the building raising the Empire's flag replacing it with the helghast flag. The buildings across the city were decorated with helghast banners as the hordes of red eye pieces roared with triumph as the Helghast flag flew freely on top of the city hall.
A pair Helghast officer along with a heavy trooper with a heavy machine gun walking along the bodies of dead stormtroopers scattered across the street. An imperial officer crawled and begged for mercy only to have a bullet in the forehead.
"Defenders of the Helghast dream ! My crusaders of Helghan go fore and make the dream our reality. Now is our time. Let the our dreams ignite the fires of war across the galaxy."
The warriors stood beside Visair draw our their darksabers and raised them in the air as the celebrating mass waving helghast flags and chanting word Helghan echoing the sky.
Visair smiled and turned away from the podium and disappeared in shadows under the flags along with company as the chanting mass echoed on.
Visair returned to his palace as he stood alone infont of the window in his chambers as he watch the metropolis of the capital silently.
"Father." Call out a voice
"My son Alec."
The figure with the shoulder plate with wolf and saber symbol stood in the floor staring at his father. The figure walked up the stairs to his father as he push a button revealing his face with black eyes and snow hair.
"My son walk with me." Said Visair as he and his son stood infront of the window watching the city
" When are you be leaving soon my son." Said the helghast Emperor.
"When I am ready father." Replied the young man." You play this role of strength our people and it is my duty to lead them just like you."
"Alec , your mother and Hera are my life work , blood , joy and happiness. This moment I am proud of the man you become." Said Visair.
"This moment of rejoice is yours my father." Said Alec as he felt a hand place on his shoulder.
" Yes this is when the helghast reclaim their rightful place across the universe and the galaxy will be ours for eternity. But Alec our enemies are countless and some of our enemies are no ordinary foe."
"I understand father." Said Alec
"This war I fear will be a long journey to victory, you will know loss but by the time you fought on no matter how , grow stronger you must that is the will of the force and claim revenge against those who fallen your comrades." Said Visair. "Be vigilant and on your guard my son if you don't fate is worse than death unimaginable ."
" I do not want to make that choice of sending you to war but you insist on leading the charge." Said Visair.
" A proud and worthy son of Helghan is value than a dead child. You are my flesh and blood my son." Said Visair turned to face. "But as a father love his children dearly."
"I will remember that. It is my decision father to go to war." Said Alec determinedly "We will honour our ancestors vow that all of our enemies across the galaxy we once lost will burn in the name of Helghan. They will drown in their own blood"
" As a knight of the Shadow Creed , honouring only our ancestor's vow, we will win the war at all cost." Said Alec smashing a fist against his amour before wrapping his arms around his father.
" May the force is with you , Helghan gives it's blessing and my blessing as well Alec. Go fore my son and lead the crusaders and the helghast dream to our ultimate reality." Said Visair with a proud simile on his face.
"I will my father , I will attend my sister and my mother." Said Alec with determination in his eyes. " Let the Force guide me to war and Helghan will prevail. I will not fail."
A bittersweet Visari still smiled and patted Alec on the shoulder. "For Helghan , let our enemies fall." The father and son said together.
Masses of Helghast warships gathered at the edge of the galaxy right to the path of the outer rim where the first spark of war will ignite and shake the galaxy to the core.
Coruscant System
Core worlds
Capital of the Galactic Empire
Darth Sidious sat on his throne mediating in his chambers watching the largest metropolis booming outside his palace but Sidious suddenly felt a rumble in the force.
The Emperor close his eyes and reach out to the force to see the source of this distrubence. The presence in the force felt intoxicating , so thick Sidious never felt before , the more deeper Sidious reach out the more toxicing it became. The presence covered it's self in the darkness. The Force was becoming more afraid of something and the presence of darkness and hatred enough to match a Sith.
The Vision then reveal an smoking face of grey and black with glowing eye pieces and a smoking breather mask.
The monstrous face then answered "We are coming galaxy will burn. You will burn. Your destruction is the will of the force ,we are their instrument."
Sidious gasped as his conscious regain control snapped him out of his vision. What ever he saw in this disturbance was toxicing and too harrow to process . It can't be possible he emperor muttered to himself ; an ancient race told in history had perish a very long time ago has returned.
He realized there was a great enemy coming into the galaxy.
Meanwhile other force users neither dark or light they all felt it , a presence unlike anything encouther.
Darth Vader stood on the Super Star destroyer Executor watching his fleet and then he clutched his head as he felt a disturbance in the force. The Enforcer of the Empire was shaking with confusion and Vader knew something was coming to the galaxy .What every they are , they were coming .
Master Yoda opened his eyes during his meditation on his home , the grand Jedi master felt in the force a storm was coming and will be destructive.
He sense a hidden presence full of untamed hatred in the shadows of the force. Yoda could not see it but it was using something to hid themselves in the force.
Deep down in Yoda , he felt something terrible will erupt.
