In 4000 BBY, the Beast Wars conflict reached new heights. The rulers of Onderon | OnderonPlanet | , Queen Amanoa and her apparently-senile husband King Ommin, sought Galactic Republic membership and, against the advice of the Force ghost of Freedon Nadd | Freedon Nadd(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | , appealed for Jedi | Jedi OrderOrganizationGalaxy-Wide Organizations | aid to end the Beast Wars. Jedi Master Arca Jeth | Arca Jeth(Arkanian Offshoot)CharacterSupporting Characters | was assigned to the Onderon system as its watchman. He sent his Padawans, Tott Doneeta | Tott Doneeta(Twi'lek)CharacterSupporting Characters | and Ulic | Ulic Qel-Droma(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | and Cay Qel-Droma | Cay Qel-Droma(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | , to settle the problem on Onderon. As they arrived in Queen Amanoa's throne room, a group of Beast Riders staged a daring raid on the city and kidnapped Amanoa's daughter, the Princess Galia. The Jedi ventured into the wildlands to save the Princess, and Tott was able to tame a boma | BomaCreatureNon-sentient | , which led them to the fortress of Beast-Lord Modon Kira. The Jedi entered the building, only to discover an ongoing wedding-feast between Galia and Modon's son, Oron Kira.Ulic attempted to rescue the Princess, but she claimed that she, in fact, wanted to be married. Modon set up a peaceful banquet to discuss things, where the Kiras revealed to the Jedi that the Onderonian royal family was influenced by the dark side of the Force and the spirit of Freedon Nadd. Galia, Oron, and the Jedi headed back to Iziz to speak with Queen Amanoa, having agreed with Modon that he would launch an attack should they fail. When they arrived, Amanoa unleashed her dark side powers upon them, forcing them to retreat into a secret passageway. Oron informed his father on the comm that they had failed. And so, Modon's massive gathering of Beast Lords from all over Onderon marched towards Iziz, with the Jedi battling Amanoa's royal guard in the throne room - one of whom used a halberd to cut off Cay's arm, which was later replaced by an arm from an XT-6 droid. Amanoa attempted to turn the tide of the battle using the dark side, but was thwarted by the newly-arrived Arca Jeth's Jedi battle meditation, allowing the beast-riders to take advantage, and soon Iziz had fallen. The Jedi, Oron, and Galia descended into the deepest levels of Amanoa's palace, to the tomb of Freedon Nadd. Amanoa was killed instantly by the sheer light side of the Force emanating from Jeth's body, ending the dark side's half-millennium hold of Iziz. Galia and Oron Kira were married, uniting the beast riders and Iziz. The whole Beast Wats conflict ended late in the year 4000 BBY.Read more... |
