Yeah. There are some tantalizing elements in issue #7, where Wolf seems to muse that the relationship between the Empire and the Jedi was much closer pre-Ossus, and where Draco implies great respect for the Skywalkers. Issue #8 shows us that Emperor Fel holds the Jedi in very high regard, even reverence. I'd like to think that the Council and the Emperor shared a partnership, or at least a compromise. Perhaps, "an understanding" would be a better term for it...

Perhaps a few did, but the implication is that, by and large, they didn't. It seems a lot of Jedi seem to strongly dislike the Empire post-Ossus. I would guess more went Sith than IK.

Actually, I'd rather prefer if we had a very, very low number -- perhaps none at all -- go Sith. Not only do these Sith seem rather insular and are already large enough that they hardly need more members of dubious loyalty, but it would make it the first purge event in which significant numbers of Jedi were not corrupted. It would also speak highly to the new Jedi Order and the legacy Luke left behind.

And it will soon all add up to...


NJO:
>Anakin Solo as intended pupil of Vergere
>Anakin is secretly cloned by Kuati Senator Viqi Shesh because the Vong ordered her to do so, because Vergere influenced them to do so
>Anakin dies at Myrkr and Jacen becomes Vergeres apprentice, while clon'A'kin ends up in the wrong hands: under an alias he is with Han & Leia, (remember the Anakin look alike boy that soon after was never heard of again?)
>They gave him away, and he was taken by Lumiya to Korriban to grow up under her tutelage.

LOTF:
>Lumiya uses and retrains Jacen while lil Krayt is at Korriban
>Lumiya intends to pit them against each other.. clon'A'kin as Jacen's sacrifice, or Jacen as clone'A'kins sacrifice, whoever will win, she will have an apprentice, a sith to carry on the legacy of the force. and both would obey her, and not know thatrag she set them both up


The tragedy is... Anakin Solos death sent Jacen onto his path. And now he will have to kill Anakin's clone to never escape it. Or he dies.. and sets evil free to ruin the galaxy. What a sad choice, what a good preparation for Lumiya.

Either Jacen kills clone'A'kin Solo and becomes a Sith. Or he dies a Jedi and dooms the galaxy. He realises, the return of the Sith is a sure thing. He cannot stop them. Through him or his "brother" they will return. So he acts...
He knew Anakin best.. Anakin loved puzzles, and so he gives him something to puzzle. And in the end.. they both realize it is a trap set up by Lumiya and together they surprise her.. face her.. and sacrifice HER! Brothers.. reunited will rule, return and shape the future. They ARE Sith, yet.. not as Lumiya had intended them to be in the end.

This leads to Krayt living reclusive on Korriban and Jacen elsewhere in Exile. They do not want to destroy the galaxy. But, they do not want to let their knowledge die with them, too, which is why they train others in secret. A secret order, a new breed of the Sith for a new time in the far future. But every generation has its own flaws and experiences.. and the dark side is too strong in their apprentices. Prolonging life, one of the two brothers sees the other die, and.. when the galaxy again sinks into chaos and war... he leaves his exile.

He stays in the shadows, but influences galactic events. Sadly knowing it has to be done, if nobody else does it, he has to become and coordinate all the darkness, to not let it run loose. He has to be a guiding light for the dark side, he has to BE the dark side. THE RULE OF ONE. Chaos can only be broken by Order, thus... Darth Krayt manipulates the galaxy into a war, guiding the outcome. But while on a Yuuzhan Vong terraformed world.. his own manipulation of the project attacks him and dooms him to live with Vong parasites as shell and armor.

Anakin Solo's clone.. Darth Krayt.. is slowly dying, and the darkness he controls.. will soon control him. That is his dilemma, his plan fails, he slips.. and in the end.. the Night comes to claim his soul for the realm of Chaos & Madness.

But...

With One Skywalker alive who can defeat death with his Healing skills, there is a chance to survive.

Cade, the last Skywalker alive, has to go close to the dark side to heal to the most extreme, claiming souls death has choosen to take.

Will Cade heal Krayt and redeem him? Or will Cade go dark in the process? Will Krayt die?

Well... The Legacy ends with them both.

Hmm... thinking Well, Anakin Solo would the biggest character that was created by DH and who - or his clone - could be Darth Krayt. A clone of Anakin would be a possible choice - perhaps the robed figure that Luke saw on Coruscant at the beginning of Betrayal and who to him seemed to resemble Anakin Skywalker, was not the phantom of future Darth Jacen sent by Lumiya from her asteroid, but a pre-armor Darth Krayt, a clone of Anakin Solo? thinking

Still, if Lumiya would have a Sith Lord of Skywalker blood already in her pocket, then why would she want Jacen to become one too? thinking A backup plan, perhaps. Or just to create a diversion etc. As Jacen´s sacrifice, I doubt it. Why this when the sacrifice could be someone that Lumiya has wanted to kill for a long time? Like Luke or Leia, or perhaps even Mara.

Unlikely scenarios, of course. plain

Why would the jedi side the Staazi and the GFFA? They're only and best hope at survival is Emperor Fel plus he's only a million times more competent than anyone else to rule the galaxy. And they pretty much know Fel is on their side and that he holds them in high respect.

This is DHC's chance to break with EU convention and create a storyline of their own. As an Imperial fan, I'm really enjoying the role reversal with Roan Fel and his forces and the separation of the Empire and Sith is much needed IMO.

It's time to blur the lines and DHC has been doing it nicely so far. There is absolutely no reason to turn it into the same lame "almost destroy the jedi, they rally under some great jedi personality and march with republican forces to retake the galaxy and hey, let's throw in a Palpy clone while we're at it."

Seriously, it's been a good departure so far and refreshing. This is the first EU story in years which has me interested. I threw the first book in LotF series in the trash after 30 pages because I knew precisely where it was going.

DHC would really be idiots to stymie their creativity in the series so far. Plus let's face it, for the first time ever the savior of the galaxy could be a non-jedi.

Oh, did I mention how thankful I am for Luke being dead? Best. Move. Ever.

Thank you DHC.

Because they've been associated with the Republic and it's analogues for thousands of years. Because they fought against the Empire.

Palpatine had two Skywalkers as potential apprentices. He still pitted them against each other....
