For The Empire
This is a note from the author. This story is a work in progress, and as you may see, lacking a specific order. It is written currently in "scenes" as I experiment with this site and getting my content on it. I have two more segments to add to this story soon, and it will be a long fanfiction. The story takes place on the planet Taris, the city planet prominent in the first Knights of The Old Republic, but during the days of the Empire. Feel free to enjoy these segments, and check back sometimes, I will upload more when I can. Also feel free to leave comments and suggestions, but keep in mind, this story is unfinished (though the events are in chronological order, there will be more segments in between them, eventually forming chapters and whatnot.) So, enjoy.
"A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away….
The thunderous rhythm of armored boots reverberated through the very crust of the planet's surface. Small pebbles and stones skipped and danced across the arid ground as rank upon rank of Imperial Stormtroopers marched to usher yet another world into the ever-widening embrace of the Empire. For Captain Darenal Sef, moments like these were those of private satisfaction. This, in his eyes, was what the Empire was meant to be. A force for order, the march of progress- not the playground of two-faced politicians and a glutinous aristocracy. No, let them fester and rot back on Corasaunt, squabbling over whatever scraps of favor the Emperor condescended to grant them. No, his place was here, to feel the very planet beneath his boots tremble in anticipation- or perhaps more appropriately, fear.
