Nobody145 posted: If in the upcoming Millenium Falcon novel Luke still has visions of oncoming darkness, then that means that he was wrong about his own fall, and that he had several decades worth of warning about the One Sith, but hasn't really prepared for them either. Unless there are that many Sith, darksiders, or just in general evil things still coming to bother Luke and the galaxy in the next few decades, which considering the publisher, is quite likely. And frankly, I don't like the post-LotF status quo, so I hope the galaxy falls to pieces again quite soon. Not that the galaxy's really worth saving, but meh, I still like to read Star Wars, so can't help myself.
Nobody145 posted:I just think there's a difference between "you never know when something might pop up, so everybody keep training, and also help make the galaxy a better place" and "I sense a darkness, a rising, very powerful darkness in the Force... everybody, time to go hunt it down!". What I mean is, Luke and his New Jedi Order are suposed be ever vigilan, but if Luke has constant visions of a coming darkness for years up until his death, and he never figures out why or where they're coming from, then that means Luke probably sensed the One Sith decades ahead of the Legacy comics, but never did anything. And its not like the One Sith are hidden on some obscure planet, they're on Korriban, one of the major Sith worlds, so sending someone to check on the planet occasionally wouldn't be that bad of an idea. Although with the Legacy comics, we know the One Sith rise to take over the galaxy eventually, but in there, its implied that they stayed mostly hidden until a few decades before the comics. Here, they're out and about in the galaxy, one of them was undercover as a Confederation intelligence operative and the Jedi never sensed a thing, and they blow up Vectivus' asteroid, and they never chase down that ship (though it would've been very difficult too, but if Han and Leia want to find something, they can do a lot). Anyway, the history leading to the Legacy comics still a bit vague, as they're still filling in that era, but so far, it doesn't seem like anybody expected the Sith until they emerged on the galactic stage, even though they knew someone had sabotaged the Ossus project, but if the Jedi had had forewarning of the Sith from Luke, it probably would've been obvious who sabotaged the Ossus project. And yeah, I think I heard that Lucas only said Anakin couldn't be the main hero of the NJO, then Del Rey decided to make Jacen the hero and kill Anakin. And now they've killed Jacen too, finishing off the Solo line (since its very likely Jaina's family name isn't going to be continued after she gets married). And though the Sith are in charge in 137 ABY, the Legacy comics are still highly recommended.
