Chapter 5: The Enemy
Two hours later, Jedi Masters Shan and Master Carra, Jedi Knights Jahani, Jolee, and Revan along with Admiral Onasi and Admiral Dodonna gathered in the Jedi Council room at the Jedi temple.
"We are here to discuss the new sith lord", Bastila explained, "and who he is". Carth looked at her surprised. "If he hasn't reveled himself and Revan does not know him then how do you know"? Carth asked Bastila. Bastila turned to Carth "all Revan knew was that he looked a lot like someone she knew from the past", Bastila explained, "she did not however know who he was till she came here for answers".
Bastila turned her attention to address everyone in the room. "Since Revan does not remember everything from her past as of yet she came to me for help", Bastila said. "That is how we found out who this new sith lord is. Revan described him to me and at first I couldn't believe it. I felt she had to be wrong. So I had the Jedi Archives on Telos send us a picture of several Jedi who had left the Order during the Jedi Civil War. She looked threw them and found the young man she saw on Sithius".
Bastila pulled out a data pad from her robes and turned it on. "This", she said "is the new Lord of the Sith". Everyone stared at the data pad for several minutes. Carth looked at it and then looked from Bastila to Revan. "This is a joke, right?" Carth asked, "I mean Malak's dead". Revan looked at Carth sadly. "Yes Carth Malak is dead", she said, "that is his twin brother, Nelian".
Standing, Bastila proceeded to explain. "A Jedi Master had first discovered Nelian, and later on met Malak. Sensing how strong in the force these two boys were, he brought them back to Coruscant with him and requested they both be trained in the ways of the Jedi. Nelian went threw the Jedi trials faster than anyone before, and after. He was very strong in the force".
"When Revan and Malak turned to the dark side after the mandalorian wars, they decided that they had to have Nelian on their side. Nelian like Malak was in love with Revan. While Malak feared competitn for Revans heart, Revan feared that Nelian might try to take the title of sith lord from her. In order to stopped their fears from becoming reality, they sent Nelian to Sithius to take charge of the sith temple".
"Now with Malak dead and Revan supposedly missing, it seems Nelian has taken it upon himself to rule the sith. What their intentions are, we do not know. However, we do know that whenever there is a sith lord and followers it's never anything good. Lucky for us though, we have a heads up this time, and we know where they are".
Everyone looked stunned from what was reviled. Jolee noticed how tired Revan looked. "Well, I don't know about the rest of you but I'm beat", Jolee said. Jahani looked at him then Revan. "Yes", Jahani said, "perhaps we should continue in the morning, and ask the rest of our friends to join us as we make plans". Everyone agreed to meet in the morning and left to their rooms.
