    Summary

    Bastard child of a wealthy Imperial Captain, Ikarus Edgeday is a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, bloodied-up masterpiece whose prodigious connection with the force has him locked into the fast track of a future he doesn’t want.

    When his attempted rebellion impresses a prominent overseer and lands him in the Sith Academy, Ikarus decides that if he can’t escape the Empire’s game, he’s going to change the rules. Driven by his haunted origins, a lethal sense of command, and an unorthodox altruism, he is determined to fight his way to the top and make the most of his dreaded destiny.

    Enter a meet-cute with a sarcastic alien slave in a grimy prison (or whatever you would call that) and we’re off! Hope you enjoy.

    **This story is intended to follow (and possibly add insight to) the light-side path of the Sith Warrior story through all of the current SWTOR chapters. It is also meant to have some fun with the family tree feature that the game offers.**

    11 - Edgeday returns to Baras, shards in hand. Baras knows he helped Klemeral, and asks for Edgeday’s opinion on what to do with Klemeral. He then assigns Klemeral to work in the prisons. Baras then gives Vemrin and Edgeday the news that he has chosen Edgeday to undertake the task of claiming an ancient lightsaber, and sends him to collect Vette. Knash says Klemeral never arrived at the jails, then hands over Vette.
    12-Ikarus and Vette leave the jails, encountering some jeers and catcalls from other acolytes. Ikarus takes Vette to get food (Vette subdues a handstand acolyte along the way), and when she expresses concern about his motives, Ikarus shares part of his tragic backstory with her. He then has her rest in his quarters while he retrieves her weapons and a day’s worth of supplies for their journey.
    13-Ikarus and Vette make their way to the Tomb of Naga Sadow. Ikarus stops Vette from rushing in and hitting killed, then they make their way to the secret entrance. Klemeral calls out a warning of Vemrin’s attack, says helping protect Ikarus is the least he can do for saving him, and is promptly killed by Vemrin. Ikarus and Vemrin fight, Ikarus wins and tries to heal Vemrin, saying he “is wasted on Baras”, but Vemrin refuses and begs for death. Ikarus kills him, but is disappointed by the wastefulness of the Sith. Vette congratulates him (which Ikarus interprets as flirting) and expresses confusion about his attempt to heal Vemrin.
    14-Ikarus and Vette continue into the tomb. He opens the sarcophagus and claims the lightsaber. Before he can discard the jedi’s lightsaber, Ikarus feels an urge to keep it. The statues then animate and a fight begins. At first, Ikarus is able to kill several, but soon Vette has to join in. Even with both fighting, the statues are overwhelming, and Ikarus is backed into a corner with Vette. He turns and encloses her in a force shield while she continues to shoot the statues, and he is cut in the back when his shield temporarily fails, but eventually all the statues are killed. Afterwards, he and Vette head back to Baras’ office, where he becomes the Sith Lord’s apprentice. Baras gifts Vette to Ikarus, despite his protests that she should be given a paying job in intelligence or the imperial historians. Baras insists, and Ikarus impulsively force chokes and threatens him, but Baras quickly rebuffs the choke and redirects it against Ikarus. After Baras compliments Ikarus’ potential, Ikarus limps off to the medical bay.

    Summary

    “No one rules alone. That goes double when ruling something vast, like a world. Or worlds. Or entire star systems. But if you get dropped into a universe that you really don’t want to be in? With powers that, at best, attract a cult of child kidnappers? And at worst, well. You might not need that advice after all. You won’t live long enough to need it.”

    Knowledge is power. Question is, will power through knowledge be enough?
    No. It really, really won’t be.

    A Star Wars the old Republic self-insert. Because why not?
    Follows the sith warrior storyline.

    Arc One finished on 08/31/2024; Chapter 36

    ‘Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings’ is accurate. Violence, death, sex (the explicit kind), torture and all manner of nasty things will be here. They are sith, not puppies. Rape will not be graphic, but will indirectly be mentioned. Once again, sith.

    Chs. 1-14 not yet summarized. Chs. 14-20 see word document (moved due to length)
    Ch. 21. Morgan & co. meet their new ship’s captain, dealing with some minor drama about the XO. They head to Nar Shaddaa; Quinn reveals the extent of their financial troubles (Vette’s donations are taxed, what money they have will get them to NS but no further). At Nar Shaddaa, they find their assigned dock occupied by one Wisi the Hutt, who demands an audience with Morgan. She tries to insult him as a power play, Vette learns about Wisi’s troubles (someone is muscling in on her business) and plans to steal Wisi’s syndicate. Wisi asks Morgan to retake a warehouse for her in exchange for using the dock. Morgan begins training with Teacher to unravel Force attacks.
    Ch. 22. Morgan’s work on Nar Shaddaa continues. He visits Halidrell Setsyn in a slave brothel she owns, and is disgusted by the slavery but must set aside his distaste at least until his work against Rathari is completed. Vette goes off on her own to sell the smuggled arms, partly to a warehouse operator named Bart, and partly to one of Wisi’s mandalorians, Dorka. She also buys some better armor for Morgan. Meanwhile, Morgan sends Inara to clear Wisi’s warehouse while he confronts Rathari’s apprentice. After this, he returns to his rooms where Vette waits with the armor, and they have another bdsm session. The next morning, Morgan goes for a walk and meets the Spy, John, again. He solicits advice re: Wisi, and John suggests that the rob then kill plan is probably a good one since a weakened Hutt is unlikely to be avenged.
    Ch. 23. Quinn tells Captain Kala about the ways Imperial High Command have been holding her back because she is a Rattataki, despite knowing that telling her will reduce her loyalty to the Empire and it going against his mission for Baras, because he feels it is the right thing to do. Vette goes to a hospital where she gets in contact with a patient’s granddaughter, a slicer named Miraka, whom she hires. Thanks to Miraka, Vette finds and goes to two of Wisi’s scavenger crews to hire them. Morgan meets Setsyn again, then Morgan & co. go to meet with Rathari’s general who is leading an assault on a Republic base. The general refuses to stand down, orders his men to attack, and is swiftly defeated and killed. John the spy kills someone and offers the dead guy’s slave(?) a job working for (I assume) Vette.
