Dark Nebula Decisions have consequences.
995 BBY
The time period is 995 BBY. The galaxy is still recovering from the New Sith Wars and the loss of so many Jedi. The Republic struggles to regain the planets it once held and does not have the strength it once did.
Many nefarious individuals have used the opportunity to seize power and influence where they normally would not have been able, and caused untold misery for those throughout the systems of the galaxy.
