Hello everyone, and welcome to Legacy of Redemption! This is a follow-up to Globalist, but is about 4 years later, taking place after the Battle of Yavin. That's about all I will tell you, so let's begin!


A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…

STAR WARS: EONS

Episode IV

LEGACY OF REDEMPTION

The galaxy is at war. The Imperial and now Revanite forces are locked in an endless conflict to the scale of the Clone Wars.

With the Death Star destroyed, the Revanites have begun their push to the core worlds. Their newly created clone army has torn through countless Imperial strongholds as they inch closer to retaking Coruscant.

Xur Eon, bent on crushing the Sith once and for all, looks to find a way to track down Vader and destroy the Emperor himself…


Lothal, 1 ABY

Jedi Temple

The Ebon Hawk II touched down on the surface, steam shooting out from the hull as it landed. The loading ramp slowly lowered and eventually touched the rocky ground. Boots clanked on the surface and four figures exited, and eventually stood, overlooking the spire that was protruding from the ground.

"It's been a while since I've been here," Kanan Jarrus spoke. "Since…he…disappeared." He could barely contain himself as he spoke, feelings of regret and failure.

"All the more reason why this is necessary," the masked figure of Xur Eon spoke in a robotic tone. "The Sith must be destroyed."

"What is this place?" the youngest spoke, clad in a black leather shirt and pants, lightsaber clipped to his belt.

"This is a Jedi Temple, Luke," the female of the group spoke. "It is where we will find answers we are longing to discover."Ahsoka Tano had resorted back to her Commando outfit, trying to forget her former life as Vader's servant. The group then advanced, and eventually came to a circle outlined in the ground. Kanan took his place as if he had done it multiple times. "Come on, Luke," he ushered. The young man took a place next to him, but turned back.

"What about you two?" he asked. Ahsoka looked away as if she was embarrassed, but Xur crossed his arms.

"This is a Jedi temple, only those who are of pure light can open it without being…rejected. Ahsoka and I are Revanites, not Jedi," Xur explained. Luke nodded hesitantly, but eventually turned back towards the spire. With a nod from Kanan, he reached out his hand and called upon the force. He then could feel the entire building as if it was being held in his hand. He searched around, finding passages, mechanisms, even a way to move it. He reached out to this, and like clockwork, the spire began to spin out of the ground. He kept his eyes closed; concentrating on what he felt in his hand as he turned the structure. Once he felt it couldn't be moved anymore, he opened his eyes.

In front of him was now a much taller spire…and a grand entrance. In awe, he began to walk towards it before anyone else. He entered the stone structure and could feel the ancient air; architecture…everything about it was old. Once he cleared the passage way, they came to a center point and were met with many branching paths.

"Which way do we go?" he asked. The others came up behind him and entered the room. Kanan chuckled.

"It's not that simple. Feel the Force Luke; let it take you your own way. Here, kneel. Only then will you see the path," he explained and then kneeled himself, in a meditative state. Luke followed suit, and took the spot next to him. Once Ahsoka was about to join them, Xur stopped her.

"Remember, if you see Anakin…you must go past him…see beyond," he reminded her. The togruta looked away, but nodded. She then took her spot and Xur next to her. He did not know what the light side wanted to show him. He had become so enthralled in Sith knowledge that he barely remembered what the light was like.

Remembering his training, he reached out to the Force and searched for answers. He called out to the light…drawing its warmth…power.

The Jedi Council is wise, but will take too long to deal with this threat. We must act now to stop the Mandalorians.

Xur opened his eyes. He was no longer in the temple, but in the depths of space. He looked up and saw a figure that was all too familiar. "Alec," he recognized. The former knight of the Jedi who would become Darth Malak stood, back turned to him.

It was within our power to end the war, but the Council chose to debate behind closed doors…while planets burned. He then turned towards him, his jaw intact as ever. Their vaulted wisdom bred only…inaction. Every step along the way, we did what we thought was right.

Xur rose to his feet. He knew what Alec was speaking of. Revan and Alec went against the wishes of the Council and won the war on their own until the Battle of Malachor. That was one of the brightest memories that he retained. He then saw armies clash, red sabers ignite and Sith troopers flood from the ship. Revan and Malak marched out of the ship, soldiers sprinting past them as they exited.

You thought that the corrupted remnants of the Republic, the machines spawned by technology that Revan led into battle were the Sith? You are wrong…the Sith is a belief. Xur looked to his left and noticed a female, her eyes covered by her hood. Her mouth was all that he could see. And its empire, the true Sith Empire rules elsewhere, and Revan knew the true war is not against the Republic. It waits for us beyond the Outer Rim. It shall always be a source of evil, spawning threats throughout the millennia. Xur then saw the storm-ridden world of Dromund Kaas and the Imperial Citadel. It, like Malachor, brushes the edges of the Ancient Sith Empire and waits in the dark. And like Malachor the Sith have forgotten it…for a time. They will remember…Revan knew this.

The woman he had recognized as Kriea then disappeared. He then saw the Imperial Citadel suddenly enlarge, and darkness consumed the area around him. He couldn't even see his hand if he placed it in front of his face.

"The Emperor's plan is not to rule the galaxy…but to consume it." A voice actually spoke to him. He then saw the massive red-faced figure of Lord Scourge; savior…but betrayer of Revan. Xur stood on guard.

"I see we finally meet," Xur greeted. The ancient Sith kept a stoic look.

"Eon, Revan Reborn. I knew one day we would meet," he replied.

Xur was tense, knowing what Scourge had done to Revan, but also knew what he did for the galaxy itself. "Why…why did you do it?"

Scourge looked away, looking out into the depths of the darkness surrounding them. "The Emperor…I devoted centuries to stopping him. For a time I worked with the greatest of your Jedi heroes: Revan and the Jedi Exile. But they did not have the strength to complete their task."

The darkness was then dispersed, and it was filled with intense light of a lightning storm. At the epicenter he saw Darth Vitiate…the Sith Emperor. You are mine…servants, slaves, weapons…and you will obey! Xur clenched his fist, anger coursing through him.

"I would have served them…until my vision. Jedi, shining with the Force, lined up to destroy him. All was swept aside. Revan and the Exile were cast at my feet. Then, out of the shadows…one Jedi emerged to cut the Emperor down," Scourge added to his story.

Xur let go of his rage and calmed himself. "You did it for the greater good. I can understand that."

Scourge nodded. "That Jedi was the Hero of Tython. She was controlled by the Emperor, dominated by him. But…unlike any Jedi before her…she broke free, and that's when I knew."

Xur looked down. It sounded awfully familiar, but not in Revan's memories…in his own. Someone was just like that.

"Yes Eon…this Jedi's descendant is among you as we speak. Ahsoka Tano is the Hero of Tython, while you are Revan reborn. These were the two Jedi that never should've existed at the same time, as it was certain to upset the balance of light and dark. But now that the dark has dominated the galaxy…the Force saw it as necessary," Scourge clarified. "If there is to be balance…Tano must defeat Vader…and you must defeat Sidious."

Xur understood, but sighed. "But what of Skywalker? Isn't he meant to defeat Vader and bring balance to the Force?"

Scourge shook his head. "The prophecy has obviously been proven wrong Eon. Once Anakin succumbed to the dark side, the will of the Force shifted…and destinies were changed forever. He will now carry on the teachings of the Jedi, but attempting to destroy the Sith will only consume him. He will die, and the entire idealism of Jedi with him."

Xur nodded. "Then I know what must be done."

Scourge nodded. "Go to Malachor. There you will meet an old rival…but do not be so quick to judge. Not all is as it seems."

Malachor. It was a planet he was very familiar with, but he knew of the presence of the Dark Side there. "What of Skywalker?"

Scourge slashed his hand through the air. "Do not bring him with you. The Dark Side is far too powerful for him to resist. Only you, Tano, and Jarrus can go."

Xur grimaced, he remembered what happened the last time they lost a young Jedi to the Dark Side, and why Kanan was so protective of Luke. And with him, they had to be exponentially more careful.

Once Xur opened his eyes again however, Scourge was gone. He was now in a cave, which was not where he began his meditation. He rose to his feet and looked back, seeing the light of the mediation chamber. Needing to relay his findings to the others, he took off towards the light. However, once he grinded to a halt in the chamber, it was empty. He mustn't have been the only one to walk in his sleep.

"Xur!" a female voice called. Knowing exactly who it was, he turned in that direction to see Ahsoka sprinting towards him from her own path. "Xur! We have to get out of here!" she called again.

Confused, Xur crossed his arms as she slowed herself down and entered the chamber. "Why, what's going on?"

Gased, she panted, but she had the look of fear in her eyes. "It's…its Vader. He's coming for Luke!" Wasting no time, Xur ran for the entrance, Ahsoka close behind. When they came to it, the bright light of a hovercraft shined above, and Vader's shuttle could be seen not too far behind. In pure instinct, Xur ran back inside more concerned about Luke than dealing with the Imperials.

He knew he should've brought a fleet with him. Vader wasn't dumb enough to not take this opportunity to crush them. As soon as they made it back to the chamber, Luke and Kanan had made it back.

Sensing their urgency, Kanan asked, "What's wrong?"

"Vader!" Xur warned.

"Vader?! How did he find us?!" Luke shouted.

"That doesn't matter right now. Right now-," Ahsoka was cut off by the respiration they all knew too well.

"Right now you should think about surrendering," Vader finished her comment. They all turned to see him walk through the entrance, and was followed by three masked inquisitors who took his side as he entered the room.

Xur scoffed. "Don't you have better things to do…like protecting your crumbling Empire? If you haven't noticed, Coruscant is looking really vulnerable right about now." He had every intention to insult the Dark Lord, having as much respect for him as he did for a whomp rat.

"I am not here for you Eon," Vader corrected him. He then turned his black mask towards Luke, who stood in anger. "Young Skywalker will be coming with me."

"Over my dead body!" Kanan growled, grabbing his lightsaber.

Luke followed his lead. "I'll never join you!"

"You will! It is your destiny!" Vader shouted in a menacing tone. Enraged, Luke ignited his blue saber and screamed.

"Never!" in anger, he jumped after Vader, but was stopped mid-flight. He then was launched backwards and landed in Kanan's arms.

"Go Kanan, take him!" he then turned towards Vader and the inquisitors as he carried the defeated Luke down the passage way. "Time for you to learn the true nature of the Force!" Xur and Ahsoka both drew their lightsabers and prepared to fight them off. With a flick of the wrist, Vader ushered the inquisitors forward. The three dark beings charged, but after a few quick parries from Xur and Ahsoka, they were all sent tumbling back. They landed at Vader's feet, shocked and overwhelmed by their immense power.

"You'll have to do better than that," Ahsoka scoffed, lightsabers illuminated in a strong, green glow. Suddenly, a squadron of Stormtroopers entered the room, guns pointed. Vastly outnumbered, Xur growled.

"Now, bow down and surrender to me, or you will die where you stand!" Vader commanded. Not wanting to give up in the slightest, Xur and Ahsoka were forced back to back as the troopers approached. With a quick nod, they both deactivated their lightsabers and unleashed a wave of Force energy in all directions.

"Let's move!" Ahsoka shouted.

"Good idea!" Xur agreed and then followed her as they took off the way Kanan had run, the troopers in close pursuit. They passed through junctions and corridors before finally seeing light at the end of their route. With a powerful urgency to escape, they came out into the light, searching for the Ebon Hawk II. With luck, they saw it fly above, and Xur waved it over. It then stabilized in the air and the loading ramp opened up. Kanan waved above.

"Come on!" he shouted. Xur and Ahsoka then both executed a tremendous leap and entered the ship, the ramp closing behind them. Inside, Xur began to make his way for the cockpit of the ship.

"Where's Luke?" he asked Kanan. His question was quickly answered as he turned into the cockpit to find Luke at the controls, getting the ship off the planet as fast as possible. Xur took the co-pilot seat and worked at the controls, boosting speed and engine capacity. Kanan and Ahsoka looked forward as the window was filled with an orange glow.

"I'm locking coordinates for Hoth," Xur announced. "We'll be safe once we reach the outpost there." The ship rocked once it cleared atmosphere and picked up speed quickly as the friction relinquished its hold. The ship was too fast for the three Imperial Star Destoryers racing for them, and was quickly out of range of their cannons. Once the coordinates locked, Xur pulled on the lever, and they were away.


And with that, it begins. The plotline of this story is much less planned than the Globalist, and is very much up in the air. I do know how it will end however, and I've decided to tie Empire Strikes Back to the beginning of this and will end with Return of the Jedi being the second half. By no means will I follow the movies, but they are happening in the background. I'll explain how they fit in as the story goes on! If you enjoyed please follow/fav and leave a review! Thanks for reading!
