Star Wars-The Old Republic - Timeline 07 BTC 103 - PEACE FOR THE REPUBLIC

THE CENTURIES PRECEDING THE GREAT WAR WERE A TIME OF PEACE AND GROWTH FOR THE REPUBLIC.
DOZENS OF NEW STAR SYSTEMS JOINED THE GALACTIC SENATE.
FOR THE SITH EMPIRE, HOWEVER, THESE CENTURIES WERE MARKED BY A RAPID ACCELERATION IN THE PREPARATIONS FOR WAR—AN EFFORT IN WHICH THE SITH SHOWED SURPRISING COOPERATION AND SACRIFICE.
I HAVE LONG SUSPECTED THAT DURING THIS EXTENDED PERIOD, THE SITH SPENT GENERATIONS INFILTRATING REPUBLIC POLITICAL CIRCLES AND EVEN THE JEDI ORDER.
REVIEWING HISTORICAL RECORDS, I HAVE UNCOVERED STRONG EVIDENCE OF ONE SUCH CASE.
EISON GYNT WAS A FOURTH GENERATION JEDI, WIDELY CONSIDERED TO BE THE MOST PROMISING PADAWAN IN THE ORDER.
HAVING A SIMILAR HERITAGE, THE VENERATED JEDI SCHOLAR, MASTER BAREL OVAIR, TOOK GYNT AS HIS APPRENTICE.
TOGETHER, OVAIR AND GYNT TRAVELED THE GALAXY, STUDYING THE MYSTERIES OF THE FORCE.
OVER THE YEARS, THE PAIR BECAME MORE AND MORE AMBITIOUS, EVENTUALLY UNDERTAKING A DAUNTING MISSION.
THEY SET OUT TO EXPLORE THE ANCIENT SITH TEMPLES ON YAVIN-FOUR.
THEIR GOAL WAS TO INVESTIGATE THE FINAL RESTING PLACE OF NAGA SADOW—ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL SITH LORDS WHO EVER LIVED.
ARRIVING ON YAVIN-FOUR, OVAIR AND GYNT DISCOVERED THAT NAGA SADOW'S TWISTED MASSASSI WARRIORS HAD SURVIVED THE CENTURIES.
THE MASSASSI ORIGINATED AS A SITH SUB-SPECIES, FORMING THE BACKBONE OF THE EARLIEST SITH ARMIES.
BUT NAGA SADOW SUBJECTED HIS MASSASSI FOLLOWERS TO HEINOUS EXPERIMENTS—TURNING THEM INTO DARK FORCE-WIELDING MONSTERS.
GYNT AND MASTER OVAIR FOUGHT BRAVELY AGAINST THE MASSASSI, BUT THEY WERE DEFEATED AND FORCED TO FLEE DEEP INTO THE TEMPLE.
THERE, THEY ENCOUNTERED THE DARK ENERGIES STILL LINGERING IN NAGA SADOW'S TOMB.
WEEKS LATER, MASTER OVAIR RETURNED TO THE JEDI TEMPLE ON CORUSCANT ALONE, WOUNDED AND HALF INSANE FROM THE TORTURES HE HAD ENDURED.
AFTER A LENGTHY RECOVERY, MASTER OVAIR TOLD A TALE OF THE HORRORS HE FACED, AND OF GYNT'S TRAGIC DEATH.
SEVERAL YEARS PASSED.
THEN ONE DAY, EISON GYNT MYSTERIOUSLY RE-APPEARED ON CORUSCANT, WEARING THE GARB OF THE MASSASSI WARRIORS AND BENT ON KILLING MASTER OVAIR.
POSSESSED BY THE DARK SPIRIT OF NAGA SADOW, GYNT ATTACKED HIS FORMER MASTER IN BROAD DAYLIGHT.
THE BRUTAL BATTLE BETWEEN THE TWO WAS STAGED WITH ALL OF THE REPUBLIC WATCHING.
GYNT'S BORROWED POWERS WERE FORMIDABLE, BUT MASTER OVAIR WON THE DAY.
OVAIR'S TRIUMPH OVER DARKNESS WAS CELEBRATED, AND THE JEDI COUNCIL ASSUMED THAT ALL WAS WELL.
THE QUESTION NO ONE ASKED WAS THIS:
WHY WOULD NAGA SADOW'S SPIRIT SEEK VENGEANCE, SPECIFICALLY AGAINST MASTER OVAIR?
THE ANSWER HAS BECOME CLEAR AFTER A CLOSER LOOK AT OVAIR'S JEDI HERITAGE:
HIS FATHER AND GRANDFATHER ALSO WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO VISIT THE TOMBS OF THE ANCIENT SITH LORDS.
THEY WERE A FAMILY OF SITH INFILTRATORS.
OVAIR'S MISSION ON YAVIN-FOUR WAS NOT FOR THE JEDI—IT WAS ON BEHALF OF HIS TRUE MASTER, THE DARK EMPEROR OF THE SITH.
THE EMPEROR KNEW THE SPIRITS OF THE ANCIENT SITH LORDS COULD BE A THREAT TO HIS POWER WHEN HE RETURNED TO THE KNOWN GALAXY A CENTURY LATER...
OVAIR'S TRIP TO YAVIN-FOUR WAS A PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE...
TO SEAL NAGA SADOW'S TOMB AND ENSURE THE EMPEROR'S ONLY ENEMIES WHEN HE RETURNED WOULD BE THE JEDI AND THE REPUBLIC.
HOW UNFORTUNATE THAT WE'VE ONLY LEARNED THE TERRIBLE TRUTH ABOUT MASTER OVAIR MORE THAN A CENTURY TOO LATE.
OF COURSE, THIS REVELATION ONLY RAISES FURTHER QUESTIONS...
WHAT OTHER ACTS OF DARK SUBTERFUGE WERE OVAIR AND HIS FAMILY INVOLVED IN?
THIS WILL BE THE STARTING POINT FOR MY NEXT REPORT.

Hey Dave I just got a really quick Questiom. Didn't you make the Yoglympics? If so do you play Graalclassic online for iPhone?

[zigal1818]

This is great. I love it but I wonder if you could somehow turn down the music volume of it since sometimes I can barely hear this guy speaking and must read which kinda ruins the impression.
