Introduction

With the majority of the worlds in the ancient Sith Empire under Brotherhood Control, the One Sith consolidates their forces to make final stands on their remaining worlds. This is considered the second phase of the Dark Crusade, meant to exterminate the One Sith as a rival and threat to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.

Every engagement stretched the Brotherhood further and further, straining resources and manpower just as surely as the bonds and fragile relationships between Clans and their members. Through the stress of campaigning and tempered through the brutality of war, every victory over the One Sith sowed hostility among rival factions of the Brotherhood.

Together, the Brotherhood committed three more star systems to their control in the Stygian Caldera after a multitude of brutal engagements against One Sith Forces under the direct or indirect command of Esoteric. However, new battle lines were being drawn throughout this drawn out conflict, and these would pit old friends and new enemies alike not only against the One Sith, but also against each other.

Phase I

Plot

Further information: Bosthirda


The Grand Master of the Brotherhood, Muz Ashen, knew that the swift war against the One Sith was far from over. Though the Brotherhood had celebrated multiple victories and had conquered various systems that were a part of the ancient Sith Empire, the One Sith were still a dangerous faction that needed to be terminated.

The first target chosen in this second phase of the campaign was the planet of Bosthirda. Strategically, it was a key location for Brotherhood forces to capture. Located along the Kamat Krote, a hyperspace route that had access to the ancient Sith homeworld of Korriban, it would be a key base of operations to launch a final assault on the aforementioned planet. As well, Bosthrida was rumoured to be the location of an ancient Sith artifact known as the Sword of Ferran. The Grand Master knew that having the artifact as motivation for the Clans would keep them united, if barely, in conflict again their enemies. He would be able to achieve his ends, and the Clan who struck the final blow against the enemy on the planet would lay claim to the powerful Sword, and all the honours that holding it entailed.

The combined forces of the Brotherhood descended upon the planet. The ranks of the Force-wielding Brotherhood could feel the strong taint of the Dark Side of the Force emanating from the planet. It was, after all, the location of a dark side temple, as well as a former hidden retreat for various Dark Prophets and other acolytes of studying the dark ways.
