Call Me a Sinner, Call Me a Saint

Book 1 of 3:

A Fall Into The Dark

A/N: This is my telling of the Revan saga. In this telling, Revan is female. I will not be taking into account any comics etc in what happened during the Mandalorian Wars. I'm making them up myself, so don't expect complete or even partial accuracy there. I will keep how they ended within canon. Also what happens in the new MMORPG and it's comics The Old Republic isn't being taken into account. Just an up front warning so you're prepared for any inaccuracies that you may find. If all goes well, this will be 3 books. A Fall Into The Dark, Knights of the Old Republic, and The Light in the Shadows.

Prologue

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

The Jedi Knights, long-time guardians of the Galactic Republic, are crippled. They are in the midst of recovering from a war. A war brought upon them by one of their own gone renegade. One turned evil. A Sith. Exar Kun. The Galactic Republic was shaken to the core by the atrocities committed by one of their former guardians and has grown suspicious of the Jedi. This suspicion has lasted many years. On the frontiers of the galaxy, a new threat is emerging. Born of war, tempered by battle, an enemy awaits. A distress signal is received from the Republic Warship Hammer orbiting the planet of Garoth. Two Jedi Knights are in range of the distress call and move to investigate….

"Master, we are approaching the Garothian system."

"Excellent, Padawan. Prepare to take us out of hyperspace."

"Yes, Master."

Jedi Knight Yar Denuth is known for his patience and wisdom, but the distress call from the Hammer was so frightening that he could not wait for an order from the Jedi Council to investigate. He has taken his student, Jara Kito, and himself into a possibly volatile situation with no backup and very little firepower. He observes his pupil as she works the controls of their small freighter expertly.

"When we come out, please immediately begin scans of the planet and look for the Hammer, Jara."

"Yes, Master. We're coming out of hyperspace now."

Starlines revert to stars as the Jedi freighter returns to normal space just out from the planet Garoth. The scene on the viewscreen before the two Jedi Knights is one of absolute horror. Yar looks upon the screen with a look of abject horror.

"By the force…"

A/N: Our first chapter will be coming soon. The actual chapters will be much longer than this prologue. Review and Critique away!
