Prologue:
The year is 25 BBY. The galaxy teeters on the brink of all-out war.
Many alien worlds have seceded from the Republic to create "the League". The League believes Humans are a scourge that must be cleansed from the universe. Their coalition is a loosely-connected one at best, militias of a hundred worlds and a few frigates here and there. What the League lacks in brute strength it makes up for with guerrilla flexibility and the element of surprise. Rumors abound that the Empress of the League is a Force-sensitive.
In response to reports of the League using clone technology to bolster their numbers, Chancellor Antior of the Republic inaugurates the all-Human "Stormtrooper Corps". These white-clad men are stoic defenders tasked with stamping out the clones wherever they rear their heads.
Meanwhile, on an isolated tundra planet, the Jedi Knights, Force-sensitive guardians of peace, have lost one of their number, a half-Zygerrian named Ceres, to the Dark Side. Anakin Skywalker has taken it upon himself to track down Ceres and kill her, even though he has told the other Jedi that he intends to re-convert her to the Jedi way. Two years ago, when Ceres left the Jedi, Anakin and his apprentice at the time tried to contain her. In the process, Ceres killed the apprentice and cut off Anakin's right hand. Anakin seeks vengeance on her for this.
But even Jedi Knights like Anakin cannot foresee what is to come. His arrival at Coruscant will set off a storm of events that will change the course of galactic history, and decide the fate of the Jedi once and for all...
Edit: One more thing must be made clear; there are five Jedi Knights in existence at the time of this prologue. That includes Anakin and Obi-Wan.
