The Exile's Voice

In an AU,a dark presence leaves its stronghold in Unknown Space. Obiwan Kenobi's sleep becomes haunted with visions, while internal and external struggles threaten to overwhelm him. History can repeat itself... the lessons of Malachor have been learned.

2. Preface A Republic Torn

Preface- A Republic Torn

The Clone Wars rage through the Republic.

So far, there is no clear victor, though the scales are constantly traversing.

For every Republic victory there is a Separatist victory.

The war is never ending, masterfully played by the 'Sith'.

There are many heroes on both sides of this war; their names are spread throughout galaxy.

Names such as Obi-wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Qui-Gon Jinn are well known.

Master Jinn and Padawan Skywalker have prevailed through many frays, and were responsible for the rescue of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.

General Kenobi, who many fondly refer to as the 'Negotiator', has led the Republic to many victories.

Now the Clone Wars are reaching their climax, the 'Sith lord' makes ready to strike when the time is right.

He is disappointed that Dooku was spared by Skywalker.

He still has hopes for Skywalker's fall, for the boy still harbors much fear and anger.

With Dooku out of command, all that remains of the Separatists leadership is General Grievous.

The end is within sight.
