The Outlander of the new Republic
Chapter 1: End of the eternal fleet
It had been three weeks since the fall of the eternal empire, he the outlander, Kalkan Lux had known that the Republic was safe after the fall of the eternal fleet. After Vitiate, had crumbled after underestimating him he decided on one big "fuck you" to the him and every idiot who ever thought he'd have to become a dictator to stop other dictators from getting it, so he simply blew the fleet up. He'd given the all clear yesterday. Which presented an important question regarding, the alliance and what would happen now. He'd been delaying this as long as possible but the fact remained he forged the alliance to defeat the eternal empire. Now there were questions, what would happen to Zakuul and the alliance.
It was in the military hanger, for it was easier for privacy, his specialist and friends were gathered, there were far too many to list. It didn't make things easier.
"Well it's with a heavy heart I call this meeting together, we need to decide what'll happen to Zakuul" said Kalkan preparing himself for the inevitable backlash. It was Koth who spoke first,
"what do you mean, we stay and mind are own business and just continue as we were before". He was very naive at times.
"Your planet is defenceless without the eternal fleet, when holding said fleet it destroyed half the galaxy" he purposely avoided Arcann's gaze "Both sides will want revenge, especially the Sith. Not to mention your planet is strategically valuable to both sides as resource heavy" this sparked outrage with Koth, whilst Arcann became ashamed, his mother comforting him, this would be the last consequence of his war. "technically I'm emperor of Zakuul but I intend to change that" he had given this thought, but technically Jedi should never rule. "My best guess is to pick a side, both sides of the war would welcome a planet as powerful as Zakuul and their leaders would welcome them joining a side."
Further outrage at the idea, but it was true. Zakuul would have to join a side or be destroyed by both. In some ways it was poetic, the people had subjected the galaxy now it would have to subjugate to the galaxy. Koth was now further down his stream of naivety "why can't we just have the alliance protect Zakuul".
At this Kalkan finally snapped, "because Koth this alliance wasn't created to protect the eternal empire but to stop it. If this alliance protected the eternal empire than they would be betraying the nations they came here to protect, and I won't betray the galactic Republic!". The glare between the two lasted for a few seconds, before Arcann interrupted. "so what you're saying is that we must join either the Republic or Sith"
