Prologue: A Legacy is Born The two moons on the planet of Dromund Kaas were visible during the night, a Sith Lord by the name of Darth Mundus well known in the capitol of the Sith Empire his power was so great that he was even feared by the Dark Council that any weakness they found would be exploited. The truth was that he did have a weakness, a weakness that could be so easily exploited but he would not be the pawn of the Dark Council's games oh no... Mundus would choose self-preservation over his son and his "wife" while he loved them a Sith had no need for love, they would not be his weakness, their pain and suffering would fuel him. He mounted his speeder and made his way to his castle in the outskirts of the capital city, the region outside the city was a swamp filled with creatures not natural. Abominations created by Sith Sorcery but even such monsters would not approach a "Darth" especially one as powerful as Mundus. He finally reached his destination and prepared mentally for the deed that he was about to commit; even for a Sith Lord this was not easy. He proceeded up the steps of the castle, in his mind preparing, justifications he had for doing the unthinkable, his hatred towards towards the council became stronger with each step, he reached the doors, he did not knock but simply unleash a force wave which caused them to blow open violently, as and ignited his Lightsaber, the hum of the sword and his mind was the only thing that he could hear he blocked the screams of the servants that his crimson sword was cutting down, no survivors he thought as they would turn on him if the chance presented. He finally reached his wife's room, she was a human with fair skin, dark eyes and long beautiful brown hair, she was paralyzed with fear, his son a boy with straight brown hair and golden eyes that marked him as a powerful user of the darkside of the force was standing next to her, his mother always protective of him. He hugged and kissed his wife on the head before impaling her on the abdomen without hesitation or emotion as, his son watched in terror as his mother was killed in front of his very eyes. Darth Mundus approached his son and gripped the hilt of his Light Saber tighter as he prepared to cut down his son, his legacy. The child was not weak as his mother he fed on her mother's fleeing life force and terror to become stronger and used the force as a defensive mechanism to take away his father lightsaber but he could not do anything against his father he was just paralyzed with fear. Mundus was astounded as this great feat, no one had ever been able to remove his lightsaber from his hand, not even other Sith Lords and yet this boy was able to rob him of his weapon. So he decided against killing the boy, but he needed to get rid of him; Mundus used the force to knock out his son and took him away to the capitol. As he approached the capitol, three figures got in his way they were powerful in the force...Sith warriors. They commanded him to stop, Mundus would not have this "Fools I am Darth Mundus! Dark Lord of the Sith how dare you give me orders?!" the warriors ignited their lightsabers their masks and dark cloaks hide their fear, but they could not hide it from Mundus he feed on their fear as he too ignited his lightsaber. The warriors rushed at him one of them jumped to strike Mundus, Mundus quickly deflected the blow and cut the Warriors hand as the other two rushed at him in opposite directions and would strike at the same time. Mundus jumped in the air punching the floor and used the force to blow them back using force speed Mundus slashed one of the sith in half as the remaining one fell on the floor. The warrior pleaded for mercy but Mundus took care of him permanently. He mounted his speeder again and made his way to the space port where he delivered his son to a slaver, knowing the force would guide the boy to be a strong Sith eventually. As the slaver left Mundus said this to his son: "Be strong in the force Rikudo, become stronger and challenge me!" Fallen Empire Commentary
