      also proves tenebrous did predicted plagueis demise and it was humorous as well with karma...you see palpatine have greater respect with teneborus than his murderous master that killed his master on the back that is cowardly to do and selfish since tenebourous did the hard work to created dead planets to have life again and creadted the twins with witches guidance, and creator of anakin but that was all part of his plan that neither palpatine or plagueis know about how vergence of the force works ...

      Exactly. It’s not ideal. I’m sure it made him more powerful, like purely in a raw power sense because he was likely suffering as a result of this, so as a “reward” for that suffering, the dark side would boost him.
      BUT, and this is important, I bet it did a number on his mental state. He was probably practically insane from this, even if he was stronger. Add on top of that his obsessive experimentation and his compulsion to completely solve death-he was probably raving mad. This madness was a huge problem for him because ofc he wasn’t thinking right. It likely led him to believe that he was untouchable, so he didn’t have the proper wariness of Palpatine when the time came.
      As a bit of an aside, it’s no wonder Palpatine had to wait until Plagueis slept to finish him off-imagine fighting a mad Sith Lord who never sleeps and is powered entirely by the dark side. It would be like fighting an emperor who’s also a rabid wild animal-just something you REally don’t wanna tangle with lol. He probably had dark side power rolling off him in huge waves given that awful lifestyle he was living. Probably Vader-esque

    I’ll admit while Darth Plagueis is a must read, it missed a very crucial moment in Plagueis’s life, his death. Sideous’s speech to his Master is one of the best moments in Star Wars (I even hope Ian McDiarmid reads the speech at a Star Wars celebration one day before he dies). That being said we never get to see what Plagueis is thinking in his last moments. His greatest fear is death, so unfortunately we can only imagine what he was going through in the end. Really really really wish we could’ve his seen last thoughts as Sideous was killing him. Other than that the book was well done.

    Star Wars:
    Shadow Born
    Title crawl about the explanation of where we are currently within the story so far. The last films have taken place, we reminisce about the tale told to Anakin during the opera, about Darth Plagueis the Wise. The story about creating life through the force, manipulating the force on even a microscopic scale, and the tale of his demise from Palpatine echoes...and then silence.
    (Open on a medium sized egg shaped space station beyond the Outer Rim, in Unknown Space)
    We see the station, sitting amongst the stars, stillborn, and quiet.
    Then we see a subtle greenish, seemingly sentient, fog creep towards the station and cling to it slowly. All it touches corrodes slightly, with the paint curling and flaking into the void. The fog invades the station as if phasing through the materials and metal.
    Once inside, the fog seeks what looks like some Sith sigiled tomb, connected to hoses and wires. The tomb lights up as if recognizing the visitor, and a hiss of some sort of steam let's loose throughout the station, the tomb begins to open.
    Large, grey skinned, long fingered, hands grasp the sides of its technological coffin, pulling itself upwards and into view. It is cowled and cloaked, in trapping of the Sith, echoing of Sith Sorcery and Sith Alchemical materials.
    Plagueis, has arisen....
    (To summarize, It becomes known that Plagueis' story, of where he had allowed himself to become drunk and vulnerable to his apprentice,was a test. He was not in his own original body, but a Force Clone, created via his own mastery of Sith Science, and old mastery of Sith Sorcery and Sith Alchemy, in the form of a space station hidden beyond the Outer Rim. His original body, sealed inside the Sith Temple Tomb, and the dark side machinery utilizing his force powers and mastery to manifest and occupy a complete clone made purely of the force. Plagueis was testing the limits of the clone, the vulnerabilities, and with nobody more dangerous and treacherous as his Apprentice, Sheev Palpatine.
    It worked miraculously well, except for the unforeseen result of his disembodied Sith Spirit having to crawl through space back to his body. This took an amount of time not accounted for, straining upon his focus, and nearly disincorporating him in his ephemeral state as he was buffeted about crossing the perils of space. Plagueis took each and every opportunity to feed upon the life of every individual he happened upon amongst the shipping lanes to strengthen his bond with the dark side of the force, and hold his ethereal state together long enough to reach the station containing his infernal contraption as it lie like a stab wound in the deeper space, unbeknownst to others.
    Now that he is awake, he learns of Palpatines end, his plans and his failures. He determines to take a new Apprentice...someone looked over with potential..he does not have the luxury of time to raise one up...he browses the information traffic of the worlds and happens upon a name..Fin.
    He knows this individual, as a child he had him taken from his father to entice a challenger to Palpatine as an Apprentice in the form of Mace Windu...this must be Fin Windu, his lost child *predicated that Windu did survive his failure against Palpatine and went into hiding, finding someone to love and having a child, which the Sith Spirit of Plagueis set forth the seed to steal away Fin into the First Order*. Perfect for for his Rebirth and Rise to power. He now must devise a plan to attract the young man to him....to sharpen the man into a weapon and wield against the galaxy.
    This is where our story begins...)
