I woke up on a lush grassy hill surrounded by beautiful flowers to be greeted with a Quest notification from the System. It felt surreal to be on Naboo considering it's every fan's dream to take part of the landmark adventure with the cast of characters which spread the fame of the Galaxy to Earth, but after reminding myself of my homeworld's destruction, it definitely diluted the joy I felt. There was definitely melancholy over the memories I held, but at the same time, there was also determination.
A burning desire to push myself past my limits and break free of the restrictions which bound me. I didn't just desire power or strength, but a reason to breathe life back into a depressed soul.
Slowly getting up and into a sitting position, I placed myself within eyesight of the Palace but not close enough to be spotted by the guards. At the time, I was unaware of what I was doing, but looking back at it, I suppose this was the moment where everything in the galaxy changed. Burning bright with determination and desire to live again, I opened up my [Inventory] and immediately brought out a small unassuming black marble. It looked no different than a normal marble from Earth and felt no different, but unless you had the System like me, you couldn't tell it was a mythical treasure.
This marble was called the [Primordial Qi Pill] which allowed me to gain benefits that no other person in the Galaxy could ever have in their entire lifetimes-even with the Force. It enabled me to cultivate with a high-level Physique, Fate Wheel, and Soul Core along with producing a dantian strengthening effect-making it difficult to destroy my dantian. The only downside of this pill is all of the previous benefits I mentioned are only acquired once in my entire lifetime. Any other pills I gain from the System will only provide experience points and moderate Primordial Qi though not enough for the higher tiers of cultivation. I'd have to purchase cultivation packages or add some stuff on in my ships that enabled me to cultivate, but that stuff is for later on in the future.
"No time like the present," I said as I opened my mouth and swallowed the pill.
At first, nothing happened. I started thinking that the pill was a placebo after getting nothing after a solid minute, but then everything went black.

[Meanwhile at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant…]
"Hmm?" a mysterious entity inquired as if feeling a divergence in the Force. They pinched their fingers together in a similar fashion to some high stage cultivator from a web novel serial and seemingly deduced nothing before the disturbance faded away. "Strange, this wasn't felt before in any of the timelines I've observed. Even the Force itself is affected by this strange divergence. I wonder who or what caused this?"
After deducing nothing from the strange divergence, the entity returned to meditate and observe the lines of Fate which have started to converge on the Jedi Temple.
*****
[...outside of the Variant Timeline…]
"He hasn't even done much yet and is already knocking up a storm, huh?" a black robed figure inquired to his compatriot who stood beside him. She was not as impressed as her male counterpart.
This woman was the one who both saved his soul and gave him the Remnant Soul System.
"Damian is just a child for now, but this fledgling Galaxy shall prove a suitable training ground for him before advancing into other Variant Timelines," the woman responded-shrugging her shoulders. "Besides, it isn't like he was the one who threw that rock towards the Moon and caused the whole mess!"
The man seethed in annoyance. "I told you I didn't order that fucker to do it! Anyways, you already know that Damian won't stop until he finds him and enacts justice."
"Yes, I know his fate and both of my sisters agreed to give him the System after bringing it up with the Elder Courts," she responded. "At least a unique subsidiary System at the cost of keeping him out of that multiverse."
"Damian has a long way to go before he can ascend from this Timeline, Clotho," the man said with a light scoff. "At what point shall he discover what he will truly become?"
Clotho took a moment to respond. "When everything changes and at the same time, begins."
