Star Wars: The Expansion Part 4 – Revival Catastrophe

Out in the dark of space, beyond the reach of any scans, the Nexus has come to a rest. Raavik Yaan conspired in secret with the wraith of the Nexus to leave Keely and the others behind near Kuat so that they could work in peace to save the Nexus. 

Raavik was out in the shipyard. He walked back to the great door where the four sentinels waited clustered around the wraith. The door was closed and one could almost feel the evil permeating from it. For it glowed red with anger and desire. 

Raavik pulled out the Saber of the Apostle and once again readied himself for what he knew had to be done.

“Raavik,” The wraith’s shadowy voice was that of a whisper in the cold of night. “You must go to the heart of the Nexus deep within the labyrinth and seal the door once again. This must be a race to try and save as many as we can before I am over run and your life fades away. For the power of the Nexus is intertwined with your life, and if I pass into the dark side you will cease to be. The sentinels will run with you as far as the entrance, and they will protect it so that none follow you in.”

“Wraith,” Raavik said, “I know that you are growing weaker by the minute, but know that it has been my privilege to serve you. Open the doors so that I may continue my service to you.”

The wraith nodded in reply, and the great hinges creaked and groaned. The door opened and already a battle raged on. Blaster fire and light sabers lit the usually dim hall. The battle was disorganized and totally confused. The beings of dark, light and gray were all fighting, all unaware of who they were fighting. The labyrinth was on the other side of the library through the maze of bookcases. 

The small group alighted upon the top of the book cases and they made their way across, as straight as they could. It seemed that the darkness was ever  growing the further in they went. The crowds really began to turn on them as the evil grew more concentrated. The sentinels had turned on their lightsabers and defended Raavik as they rushed toward the maze. 

At the entrance of the labyrinth of the Apostle, there was a large group of dark Jedi that barred the entrance. Four yellow tornados whirled down off the bookcases and cleared a path for the Apostle to make his way down into the tunnels. There the sentinels made their stand and held back the hordes for as long as they could.

Raavik Yaan descended once again into the tunnels below and began his search for the heart of the Nexus.
