Star Wars: KOTOR Story 4-The Dim Flicker
Nihilus groped around blindly in the dark. He didn’t know what was going on. Last thing he remembered was fighting on Malachor V, and then the planet started shaking, and everything went dark. He could finally “see†again after quite a few months. He wondered what had happened. All he knew right now was that he was hungry.
He searched for something to eat in the soil of the now broken planet of Malachor V. Alas, only soil and corpses could be found. He shook his fist and roared in anger. Except, it wasn’t a roar. The sound of his own voice made Nihilus tremble in fear. Something was wrong with it. It wasn’t his. He continued to walk around on the surface of the broken world until finding the entrance into its depths.
It was there that he came across a weird creature: Something that would become known as a storm beast. He reached on his belt for his lightsaber, but couldn’t find it. He had lost it in the soil. He thought the storm beast would take him out. But, it didn’t. It was slain the minute it started charging at him. He looked up and saw Darth Traya. “You are strong in the Force. Come with me.†Nihilus wanted to ask “Who are you?â€, but the only sound that would come out was his garbled up voice.
“You were lucky that I found you when I did or that best would have torn you to shreds. Come with me to the core.†Traya told him when they reached the Trayus Academy. Nihilus followed, scared and confused. There, he met Darth Sion, Traya’s apprentice. “Who is this cowering little bug, Master?†Sion asked Traya. “This, Sion, is Nihilus. He is your new co-apprentice.†“Master, a co-apprentice? I do not need one.†Sion spat. He was gray-skinned, and appeared to have cracks all over his body, as if he had been broken to pieces and then glued back together in a crappy way. “He is a worm. A DAMN WORM!†Sion was angry. “Now, Sion,†Traya began, “be positive towards him. I sense he has great potential.†Sion retorted, “I do not give a damn. He is weak.†“But, he will get stronger.†Nihilus broke this up by “speaking.†“Ah…†Traya pondered for a moment. “I understood that.†“As did I. So, you are hungry, worm?†“Sion, stop. Tell us your name†Nihilus tried to form the words to produce his name correctly. “Nihilus?†Sion asked. Nihilus nodded. Traya had brought an unconscious Jedi into the room. Suddenly, and without warning, Nihilus stomped forward and drained the Force from the Jedi, killing him. He did not know what had happened. But, he liked it. He continued to train alongside Sion for weeks. He was going to like being a Sith Lord.
Revan was waging war against the Republic. He was finally captured and his identity altered to serve the Republic. He soon found out his true name and nature, but did not return to it, choosing to keep his name of Arden Slyk. He eventually helped the Republic defeat Darth Malak, his former apprentice. Eventually, he left the Republic to go to the Unknown Regions, leaving behind the Ebon Hawk and its crew. On a remote planet somewhere in the Galaxy, Norris Ossus was serving her exile, as she had been condemned to exile by the Jedi Council. She was asleep for now, but would soon awaken…
