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

STAR WARS

The Orexsus War

Three years have passed since the DARK LORD OF THE SITH, DARTH KRAYT established the NEW SITH ORDER and overthrew the rightful leader of the GALACTIC EMPIRE, ROAN FEL. Hundreds of worlds, still loyal to Emperor Fel, have been fighting an insurrection against the Sith, guided only by Fel and his IMPERIAL KNIGHTS. But the Sith's power has since grown, and the Fel rebellion is no longer seen as a serious threat to Darth Krayt. The Sith Lord has since turned his attention to more pressing matters at hand.

Unknown to the Fel Empire, a number of JEDI KNIGHTS that had defected to the Imperial Knights have secretly been practicing the teachings of the Jedi, splitting their loyalties between the Empire and the Force. They seek to create a new JEDI ORDER that would better conform to the changes in the political landscape, one that is bound only to protecting the innocent and preserving balance in the FORCE rather than being mixed in the political affairs of the Galactic Government. Darth Krayt has seen the rise of this new Jedi Order and seeks to destroy it by purging the last Jedi loyal to the Force and slowly chipping away the numbers of the Imperial Knights.

The Unknown Region of the Galaxy holds many secrets, however, and a new power is on the rise in the Galaxy. A second SITH EMPIRE, just as unorthodox in its teachings as its Krayt-led counterpart, has emerged from the Unknown Regions and begun seizing worlds belonging to both sides of the Empire. Its origins are as mysterious as the place it came from, as are its members and leaders. One of the members of Krayt's Sith order, DARTH STRYFE, sent on a mission to find the source of the new threat, now finds himself at the mercy of one of its members…
