The Coming Darkness
Discaliamer: I clearly don't own Star Wars. Or KOTOR. Or anything like that. This is Fan ravaged planet of Malachor V was and is, in many people's opinions, a wasteland. Mandalorians considered it sacred before Revan's infamous battle in it's skies, and rightly so. If you ask a soldier that fought for Revan in that final battle, most refer to it as "some Mandalorian planet". But should you ask one of the few to tread it's surface, you will get totally opposite response. But you might find some trouble finding a live man or woman who has been to this planet. For the majority are dead. By my hand. Since I have walked upon it's surface, have breathed it's air, I will tell you of Malachor V. It is not "some Mandalorian planet" nor is it a wasteland. Malachor V is power. A planet full of it, for that matter. It is a monument to the darkside and always will be. That is why I rule it, and why I destroyed all else who were there. You wonder who I am. That is a difficult question to answer, as there are three halves to me. One is Krane Ashren, General in the Mandalorian Wars, soldier and friend of Revan, and killer of countless Mandalorians. Second is Darth Kronos, Sith Lord, destroyer of the Jedi Order, and slayer of the Lords of Hunger and Pain, and the Queen of Betrayal. The third half is the most prodominant of the 3. It is power, the beast that takes control of me during the frenzy of battle, the animal that holds all my anger, hate, and fury, and unleashes it to my foes. Most call me by the dubbance Darth Kronos, so that will be what I will refer to myself as.But Malachor is not important. More important are the people who are there. There is only few there: Me, and my droids and apprentices. There has been many beings in my life, and most are dead. Most by me. I don't know why I kill those who have wronged me before. Despite the claims by my apprentices, I do not seek revenge. Only the weak remember the past, whether to savour it, regret it, or perhaps despise it. It may be by fate that I came across my old teachers and allies. They are only dead because they came between me and my goals. But this is not the point. Listen, you hear tales of the Sith Lords and how they threatened the Republic. Exar Kun, Revan ( before her loss of memory), Malakā¦the list goes on. But did you stop to think of their motives? Have you ever thought that perhaps Revan tried to overthrow the Republic in order to save it? That maybe Kun had forseen the REAL threat, and tried to control and gather the galaxy to defend against it? Bah, you do not listen. You are too busy cherishing your Republic. But soon you will know the true meaning of fear. Soon. I don't know why I write this. Perhaps I hope it will be entered in the new Sith archives. This is the account of Darth Kronos, destroyer of the Jedi and Sith. Soon to be Ruler of the Galaxy. This is my story.
