Episode One: The Phantom Menace (Intro)

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

There was a war between two races, the Celestials and the Rakata.

From the ashes of this war, the Rakata rose as the victors, while only five Celestials remained, what happened to the others is left unknown

The five that did survive were The Father, The Son, The Daughter, Ulthaan and the "Voice of the Unknown Regions".

Nearly two decades ago, Ulthaan reincarnated both Gwendolin Capillus and Amar Singh.

The two are now known as Ava Kendra and Adrian Hawke.

For reasons unknown, Ulthaan continues to watch the actions of Adrian Hawke, but his patience runs thin as he descends deeper into the chasm of madness, as he persists in his quest to free the "Voice of the Unknown Regions" from whatever realm or prison it resides within.

After two decades of Separation since their rebirth, the two lovers were finally Reunited.

Telestarri watches over Hawke, as he was ordered, but the longer he witnesses the relationship and deep connection that Adrian and Gwen hold for one another, his heart aches with the regrets, guilt and failures of his past.

Abeloth's new puppet, Pre Vizsla, has been secretly carrying out his new master's commands on the world of the Mandalorians, Mand'alor.

Pre Vizsla at the enslaved command of his new master has been hiding from the eyes of Kara, by evading all forms of technology that could track him and the members of Deathwatch.

Leaving Adrian Hawke in the dark about Abeloth's plans.

In the present day...

Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic.

The taxation of trade routes to outlaying star systems is in dispute.

Hoping to resolve the matter with a blockade of deadly battleships, the greedy Trade Federation has stopped all shipping to the small planet of Naboo.

While the congress of the Republic endlessly debates this alarming chain of events, the Supreme Chancellor has secretly dispatched two Jedi Knights, the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy, to settle the conflict.

And so begins a series of events that would one day lead to the greatest war to have ever engulfed the Galaxy since the formation of the Universe...

And at the centre of it all...

Adrian and Ulthaan would one day stand face to face with one another, and the Hawke of the Sea will be left with a choice to make...

A choice that was taken from Ulthaan long ago, and ever since then he has been seeking Vengeance...
