*Thud*
Lying on the floor, a man in dusty robes took a deep breath and then tried to compose himself " My head hurt so much, how long have I been out? Wait, I was to be brought back when the darkness destroys the light, paving the way for his return. Does this mean we have lost? Everything I fought forgone? The people I loved are long gone, the light has joined them, I wonder if any of my descendants still live in this time."
The man tried to feel through the force for anyone who could be connected to him however to his alarm, his connection to force was gone, as panic overwhelmed him, he attempted to force pull a nearby rock into his hand, the rock slightly moved in his direction but then stopped in its tracks, the man smiled and thought' It appears I haven't lost my connection completely, just my connection has deteriorated as I lay here in Stasis for god knows how long. I guess it is my fault for using unstable tech found on Iokath, my first step will be to re-establish my connection to the light side of the force, then the dark side and finally to the force as a whole, just like in my past life.'
The man pushed himself into a standing position, his body gently rocked as his legs slowly got accustomed to moving again, lowering his right hand the man tapped his side and to his surprise, his lightsaber flew into his hands, its golden hilt resting perfectly in his grip, igniting it the white colour of the crystal lit up the tomb he was buried in, the black hue that surrounded the white of the crystal reminding him that he must accept both sides of the force to unlock his true potential once more.
As he walked around the tomb, a coffin that was near his caught his eye, walking towards it, he saw the name on the plaque, it read 'Lana Beniko, with her husband for eternity. The man took a deep breath before placing his hand on the coffin, smiling he said" You always wanted to be buried together, I guess you found my hidden tomb after all, sorry for leaving you in the dark in the years after my disappearance."
"Sir you have to see this, there is movement on sensor 12b, the one inside the old tomb, how is that possible?"
The security commander rose to his feet in a rush, running to the console, looking at the readings he said"Tell no one what you saw here do you understand? If you do, you and they will be shot dead or used as a live practice by the Holy Knights of Zakuul."
The commander sprinted towards the elevator and took it two the top floor of the spire, the old throne room, re-designed as a council sector, the old symbol of the Eternal Alliance had been modified and turned into the symbol of the new rulers of Zakuul, the Parliament of Zakuul, stopping the discussion that was in progress, the security commander said:" I'm sorry for the interruption President, Councillors however we have movement in Sensor 12b, it is significant and has been occurring for the last hour."
The President rose from his chair and said" Send a detachment of Knights to the tomb, open it, if he has returned then it is possible for the old Evil to be back as well, bring him here but under no circumstances are you to harm him, he freed us from tyranny and accepted us going independent from the Alliance with no fuss. The Outlander walks amongst us once more, hopefully, it spells a golden age for Zakuul, not its fall..."
The entrance to the tomb was blown open with the force, the rubble flying towards the meditating Man near the coffin of his long lost wife, before any of it could touch the coffin, it was obliterated with quick lightsaber strokes. The man collocated his thoughts and whispered" I will end this once and for all my love and join you in the force."
Turning to the knights he snarled" Do you know who's coffin you nearly dirtied? I don't care who you are, this is the one thing you will never touch or dirty or your neck will be missing ahead, is that understood?"
The knights immediately knelt before the man before simultaneously apologising" we are sorry Outlander, your presence is requested in the Starscraper at the centre of the spire, the Parliament would like to meet the Hero of Zakuul."
The man walked past the Knights and said" I remember the way, I will be there shortly, I have to do something first."
The man walked towards the walkway to the old world, the Slums of Zakuul, before he buried himself, he had left a stash that he knew he would need when the time came to fight him once more...
