The Xolani-Station crisis - a photo on Flickriver

While it may seem impossible to most people, there actually was a point in the war between the Sith Empire and the Republic, at which there had almost been a peace treaty. Over the course of the war, both sides had gained and lost territory and millions of soldiers had died for both causes. While there seemed to be an unlimited amount of people to recruit as troops, eventually both sides ran out of force sensitive children to train as either Jedi or Sith. Knowing a lack of force sensitive fighters would mean certain defeat, both sides decided to initiate negotiations for peace, or at least an armistice almost simultaneously. Ambassadors of both sides, Jedi and Sith, met on Xolani-Station, which was orbiting the neutral planet of Kireina. Even though the negotiations came forth slowly, eventually a treaty was formulated, which would grant both sides their respective territories and a save retreat for any troops stuck behind enemy lines. Of course, the whole idea of peace didn’t go without criticism by the public and many suspected the Sith would only use it as a decoy for another attack. Yet, in the end it was not the Sith, but the Jedi that broke the contract and deceived their opponent. When let alone to discuss the final wording of the contract, Jedi Master Jarc Konden suddenly turned on Sith Lady Crucia, taking her by surprise and striking her down in anger. He later claimed that the Sith had attacked him first. Of course his fellow Jedi trusted his word and considered the Sith to be evil in general. The remaining Sith on the station were taken by surprise and even though they fought bravely, none of them survived the onslaught. By his return to Coruscant Konden was celebrated as a hero for seeing through the lies of the Sith and ending the Xolani crisis. The truth was only discovered when former smuggler and republic pilot Jarina Solem spoke out against him, while being questioned about her role in the crisis in court. Being Kondens personal pilot, she had been waiting outside the conference room, but left her post out of curiosity. This resulted in her having eavesdropped on the conversation between the Sith and the Jedi and she could relay the conversation and ensuing fight in detail to the court. The judges believed her and while she was sent to prison for violation of military security, Master Konden was accused of treason. The republic court and the Jedi conducted the trial together, resulting in Konden being expelled from the order and sentenced for life for murder in over 200 cases, treason against the republic and, for the first time in the history of the court, for crimes against the Sith Empire.

Here’s my entry for the first round of the fig-off-tournament over at @figbarfcentral. My opponent was @codyaner_bricks and the topic for this round was Star Wars The Old Republic. It took me quite a while to come up with satisfying figures for this theme, but it was a lot of fun. Also, the background gave me a nice excuse for building a micro Hammerhead-frigate.
