In her own secret Wraith mission, TKeira_Lea sneaks into the Beyond the Saga Forum and posts a new thread. What might it be?
Legacy - something passed from one generation to the next
Yes, you found it!
None other than the second installment in the Force Evolution Trilogy - known by the Echoes of the Past readers as Legacy.
If you are new, this is a novel to follow my award-winning work, Echoes of the Past. The Force Evolution Series focuses on Jaina and Jag, with quite a bit of Kyp and some Tahiri and Jacen (separately, not together). The story is an alternate universe following the conclusion of Destiny's Way. The prologue sums up what has happened to date. If you are curious, but are not sure if you want to invest the time try either Dreams of the Future or All Angles, a series of vignettes based on these character as I have developed them. All three works were nominated for the Summer Fanfiction Awards, with Echoes walking away with Best Romance, Best Action, Best Post-Saga IP, Best Ensemble Cast and Best Novel.
For the 2003 Winter Fan Fiction Awards, LEGACY walked away with Best ByTS AU and Best ByTS Romance!
In the 2004 Summer Fan Fiction Awards, LEGACY won awards for Best Drama, Best All-Around, Best Original Character for Rane Fel, Best Villian for Zekk, Best Non-Jedi for Jagged Fel
Now it's time for the 2004 Winter Fan Fiction Awards, LEGACY has been nominated in the following categories...
Readers' Choice Action
Readers' Choice Angst
Readers' Choice Epic
Readers' Choice Series
Readers' Choice Canon Interpretation, Female for Jaina Solo
Readers' Choice Original Character, Female for Briaun Fel
Readers' Choice Child, Female for Keira Winter Fel
Readers' Choice Non-Jedi, Male for Rane Fel
Readers' Choice Non-Jedi, Female for Briaun Fel
Readers' Choice Non-Human, Male for Trick
I post Tuesdays and Fridays during the work week and sometimes on weekends, plus occasional bonus posts. It seems that there was a tendency to run a couple pages between posts near the end of Echoes so I will put links from one post to the next to make it easier to read. As always, if you want the Word file emailed to you so you can catch up, please PM me. All my readers know that I am more than willing to accommodate vacations and send the next chapter out early by PM, provided you keep the contents a secret, and I am always open to plot suggestions, questions, I-just-have-to-know-what-happens PMs. Send them my way.
The Wraiths are a scheming bunch of Echoes and Legacy fans. They appear wild (some possibly even crazed, dazed and demented), but they don't bite. In addition, we have the Lomin Cantina, where the fans hang out, find teasers, shamelessly plug their stories, scheme and do all those things that can get them slapped on the wrist by a moderator over at tF.net. There are Jaina/Jag pictures, fan art and cover art posted as well as numerous polls and messages.
Enjoy, lurk if you like, but pop us a line once in a while. WraithLead will flush you out eventually...
Again, thanks ahead of time to Hoya, Zara, JJ00, JediWarriorYoda, and Darth_Lex for betaing this massive epic. (I've worn them all out!)

Without further ado...
LEGACY
There is light and dark in all of us. In those of us that the Force shines the brightest, the darkness can be all consuming when the light flickers out. - Jaina Solo-Fel to Valin Horn
PROLOGUE
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
The Yuuzhan Vong had entered the galaxy as marauding conquerors, tattooed warriors using their strength and skill to rip apart the New Republic. They had not been satisfied with merely removing the heart of the New Republic, reducing Coruscant to rubble and with it tearing down the foundation of government that had once united the galaxy, but rather these invaders had succeeded in also ripping out the hearts of its people.
So many had been lost to the ravages of war, yet in the midst of it all two hearts had found a love that transcended everything else - a love that demanded to be free of the shackles of war and suffering. With the light of this love, Jaina Solo, tiny in size but generous in fighting spirit, had found a way to defeat an enemy bent on ending all that her loved ones had fought and died to secure. Size mattered not to Jaina as she challenged the evil scavengers, even as their disease devoured her beauty from within.
Through it all, Jag Fel had trusted in the love he had embraced by throwing aside the rigid structures he had been raised to uphold. The love that had consumed him provided the light which would guide the newly formed Galactic Alliance through its darkest hours. His child - a precious gift - had been the key to unlocking the mysteries of the Force to the Jedi. The unborn daughter of Jaina and Jag had revealed the Yuuzhan Vong in the Force, allowing Jaina the insight to defeat the Supreme Overlord at the Battle of Naboo.
The act of spearheading the final campaign and its ultimate success, which had led to the Yuuzhan Vong's surrender, had come at the ultimate cost. Jaina's body had failed her. Only with the unbendable love of those she had saved fortifying her spirit did Jaina ultimately find a way to overcome the destruction of her body.
Safe on Csilla from those who might wish them harm, Jaina and Jag had welcomed Keira Winter Fel into the galaxy, a blessing after all their sacrifices. There was still a price to pay for cheating death however, and that price had been Keira's eyesight. The proud parents refused to be daunted by the limitations imposed by this obstacle. Instead, they accepted the gift of life and hope of a peaceful galaxy in which to raise their family, no matter what barriers fell in their way. Nothing possibly could be more daunting than all they had endured so far; they held that truth above all others.
The Fel family grew in love and faith, sheltered from the trappings of the life that had consumed their existence for so long, while others strove to ensure that Jaina's victory would secure a future for families everywhere. The Yuuzhan Vong, now without the smothering leadership of Shimmra, found that many of their beliefs had been twisted for the Supreme Overlord's personal gain. As the walls of their ideological system came tumbling down, the Yuuzhan Vong searched for a way to rebuild their society.
Most importantly, the Yuuzhan Vong quickly realized their deities had been no more than a method for Shimmra to subject his will on the people. The Trickster charade was revealed for what it was - a cunning deception. Despite this fact, the Yuuzhan Vong still held Jaina in the highest regard as it was revealed that she, a woman bearing a child, had withstood the assault of the shaped disease and at the same time defeated the Supreme Overlord, ultimately freeing the Yuuzhan Vong from their own shackles.
Having paved the way for their heroes' return, those on Naboo, the temporary seat of power for the Galactic Alliance until the reclamation of Coruscant could be completed, continued to work on rebuilding the galaxy to what is once was. All the while they anxiously await the time Jaina and Jag would deem it safe enough to venture out of the Unknown Regions and back into their lives...

Some silly E.W.O.K *grumble, grumble* ran around the thread so you have to skip to here for the next post ----->

Wow! Legacy!!!! And I got first post ever! 
Interesting prologue. I find it funny that you managed to compile the main points of Echoes into that, though. lol. But of course now I'm only all that more psyched to start getting Legacy chapters.
Enjoy, lurk if you like, but pop us a line once in a while. WraithLead will flush you out eventually…
Yeah, I'll get 'em. Heeheehee
Again, thanks ahead of time to Hoya, Zara, and JJ00, who have all volunteered to beta, as well as TSL aka WraithLead, sort of our own Wes Janson, for running the Cantina
You're welcome! I have too much fun doing this stuff, you should know by now.

Better read it before coming here again!

Yeay!!! It's here!!! That was awesome. I think the only thing from Echoes that was important that you didn't mention there was Zekk. That was quite good. I can't wait til the actual story begins.
