Prologue: The End of the War
The galactic war known as the Clone War was drawing to a close. However, for the Jedi and their Grand Master, the Gallifreyan Jedi Master known as the Doctor, the fight was still raging on, even to the last hours of the conflict.
In a very surprising move, nearly the entire fleet of the Republic's current enemy, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, had made a run for Coruscant, leading to a massive-scale invasion of the Republic's capital. During the ensuing battle, the military leader of the Confederacy, the fearsome General Grievous, kidnapped Supreme Chancellor Palpatine as well as two Jedi Masters of the High Council, Stass Allie and Shaak Ti. The Doctor was now giving chase, joined with Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and his former Padawan, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker.
But dark times were lying in wait for the Jedi Order. Darth Sidious, revealed to be a real person, had plans to take over the galaxy and establish a Sith Empire. The Doctor had put Jedi Master Mace Windu to the task of finding this mysterious Sith Lord, but he had come up with nothing, with the exception of one fact: Darth Sidious was in a position where he was close to the Chancellor himself. Other than that, unfortunately, Mace could find nothing.
The Doctor worried almost constantly for the future of the Jedi Order, and he would soon realize that his fears were not misplaced. Little did he know that the Sith had plans for one of its most powerful members, and that this Jedi would go on to exterminate much of the Order during what would come to be known as the Great Jedi Purge.
This is the story of the Doctor during the final days of the Republic, the fall of the Jedi Order, and the rise of the Galactic Empire.
