Dark Guard Journals: Entry 7

"If someone asks me years from now, 'where were you when the jedi order fell?' I'm not sure what I'll tell them. Do I tell them that I was just living a normal life, and was as shocked as everyone else when the chancellor declared the jedi traitors to the Republic? Or, do I tell them the truth? Yes, I was shocked when I heard the news, but I wasn't living a normal life. I was there, fighting the jedi that the 501st, under command of the newly dubbed Darth Vader, had missed, or those that showed up after Lord Vader and the 501st had already begun their assault. The galaxy has changed, now. With the jedi order all but exterminated, and the Republic having been transformed into 'the first galactic empire', in the words of the new emperor, the only thing that really remains is the leaders of the CIS. However, the rumor is that Lord Vader has been sent by emperor Palpatine to eliminate the seperatist leaders, and end the war once and for all. Of course, we've all heard 'this will end the war once and for all' more times than we can count, but with the deaths of Count Dooku and General Grievous, the remaining CIS leaders, who apparently are hiding on Mustafar, are all that's left to hold the droid armies together. To be honest, though, the CIS is the least of my concerns. I'm still pondering the ramifications of what the the other DG and I have done, along with the clones. Looking on the bright side, I did finally learn what Order 66 was meant for, and it turned out to be a hell of a lot more interesting than just some battle formation or attack plan. Still, fighting and killing the jedi, who were once some of our closest allies, just seems... wrong. Orders are orders, however, and I know that I made the right decision by sticking with the Republic, and my superior officers. We've changed the galaxy, but whether it's for better or worse remains to be seen."
