Chapter 0 – Rebellion
The Empire had succeeded in their greatest victory against the Rebel Alliance at the Battle of Polis Massa, there the Imperial Forces had successfully activated a Thought Bomb which was one of the most powerful weapons on hand that could be used by Darkside Force Sensitives, only the strongest however was revealed to be able to survive the explosion and continue to exist in the Nexus created. With the sudden confusion by Rebel Forces across the Galaxy, the Empire gained headway in the suppression of hundreds of Rebel Cells as well as millions of Rebel Sympathisers, also it seemed that Robert Hilling's betrayal of his competitors in the Corporate Sector had tightened the Corporate Sector Authority's relationship with the Empire which had once been the Republic that birthed the Corporate Sector which their main intention was revenge.
Onward however churned the production of the Second Death Star and the appearance of the Tarkin Superweapon on the frontline, the Tarkin was being fitted with the newest in combat technology which they intended to use as a Mobile HQ for Imperial Forces in the Outer Rim, it would also be used to destroy Rebellion Fleets that they happened to come across. The Executor-Class Super Star Destroyer had been put into limited production which amongst them were named the Terror, the Vengeance, the Guardian, the Annihilator, the Reaper and the Brawl. Finally was the Sovereign Project, a limited production of the original Sovereign-Class Super Star Destroyer all that were yet to finish production, however Darth Deus himself was pushing for their completion.
The Empire seemed not to tire, with a near endless supply of non-ageing Clones and upgrades in technology allowed for the Empire to continue its war against the resisting Galaxy, likewise the Rebellion's strength still held high. The Rebel Alliance held the Battle Droid Facilities and ships that had once been used by the CIS or Confederacy of Independent Systems, however the Rebels were suffering in human man power due to the Imperial crackdown on potential recruits on Rebel Cell included worlds and Imperial Propaganda, most problematic was the loss of one of the Rebellion's own founders whom had fallen captive to the Empire during the Battle of Yavin only Two Years previously.
Darth Deus began working on tracking the Rebels across the Galaxy and with their number of spies it was only a matter of time before the Rebellion shattered under the pressure, presently however a cloud of Darkside Energy was gathering in the Lehon System over the world named after the System, a world which had previously been named after the Rakata Empire whom created a Mighty Forge that feasted on Darkside Energy. The Malicious, a prototype Imperial Executor II-Class Super Star Destroyer guarded what was being built there and the Rebellion's spies didn't live long enough to report what lay behind Laser Shield that blocked the construction orbit from view, however it was something that Empire was spending a lot of resources and time towards building.
Author Note – And that is the end of the Introduction, what could the Empire be building? Well, if you've looked at Legacy of Darkness and read carefully, you'll notice that they are building a Forge-type Superweapon, you'd even find a name for it. Review!
