For this poem and the one coming up after the "South Beach" acrostic poem, feel free to review and let me know if I missed something in the Rakata history, or so it was told at this point in the game. I did my best to keep the history that the Rakata Loremaster, Gjarshi, told as brief and as broad as possible.


Rakatas, as Loremaster Gjarshi told, spawned in the ancient times when their gods created the planets.

As the Rakata tribes came out from the underground, they built the first civilizations in tangent.

Killing many to grow strong was their way, for Rakatas eventually built the First Empire of the Galaxy, stronger it was compared to the Republic.

After many years passed, the First Empire collapsed and the Republic endured with a Wookie's stomach.

Time soon found the Rakatans a war of reformation, in which they hoped to build a Second Empire.

Awed by their leader, called The One, Gjarshi and other Rakatans governed by The One sped on a conquest to take over many islands. There wasn't need to stutter.

Needless were those twenty years, as Revan and Malak arrived, asking for a way inside the Temple of the Ancients.

Still, even after Revan and Malak left the Star Forge system changed, The One and his tribe did not forget Revan's vow, as he waited inside his station.

Even with no other choice, Aaron learned from The One about a book the Elders kept inside their settlement.

Though there was nothing he could do except agree to the vow, Aaron and his party learned briefly about The One from the Elders own entanglements.

Trusted and governed by the Light Side of the Force, Aaron knew what would happen if he disobeyed The One's vow.

Leadless with wrong, Aaron nonetheless came out with the right decision for the Elders' sake, which was endowed.

Easiest choice was not Aaron's way, as he ended up fighting The One and his tribe instead.

Many Rakatans of The One's tribe were killed that day, yet "The One" himself would not rest with this thread.

Evil had corrupted The One as he wanted more power, for Aaron knew this to be true.

Nonetheless, Aaron managed to defeat The One and his Rakatan tribe in a few slews.

Through it all, Aaron freed the Elder prisoners from the Rakatan Settlement. The prisoners returned to the Elder Settlement, no longer afraid but still confused.
