    Summary

    War rages across the entire breadth of the galaxy, consuming entire star systems in its fiery inferno.

    Legions of Clone troopers, led by Jedi Generals and Commanders, fight against seemingly endless waves of battle droids created by the Confederacy of Independant Systems, led by the mostly mechanical General Grievous, and the former Jedi Master known as Count Dooku.

    Within the halls of the Galactic Senate on Coruscant, Darth Sidious, better known by his public alter-ego Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, plans for the birth of his new Galactic Empire, out of the ashes of the Republic.

    And here I come in, in the middle of quite literally everything, dropped into the body of a prototype Super Tactical Droid, and surrounded by incompetent fools in military uniforms, badly programed battle droids, and Sith plans for galactic domination.

    Hopefully, with the aid of my tactical superiority, I can build up a resistance to the Sith's plans, throw canon under the bus, and keep the major players focused on each other. Because I have no inclination to be sliced in half by some teenage monk with a laser sword.

    Summary

    This series explores two intertwined narratives: the adventures of time-traveling Obi-Wan and the reactions from the core, particularly the Jedi. It presents a Jedi-positive perspective but challenges the traditional notion of Jedi training. The series questions the importance of time in training versus the impact of experiences on a Jedi's potency. Drawing on examples from Legends, canon, and games, I posit that the skills of a Jedi could be taught to adults/teenagers in a relatively short time. It’s the mastery of self that would take the most time, and ultimately why the late-modern Republic’s Jedi training started with children.

    Summary

    Obi-Wan starts to hide his braid in the tenth month since the birth of the Empire. He pins it behind the ear every morning, because he can't stand the pitiful looks the newcomers throw his way.
    It's understandable.
    They think his Master is dead. They think he mourns, clings to a promise that would never be fulfilled. They think he is just one of the many padawans, orphaned in this devastating massacre.
    He sometimes wishes it was the truth.

    His Master, however, is not dead. His Master is alive and he is the Sith that started it all.
    But Obi-Wan can't bring himself to denounce him even after holding the cold corpses of his younger brothers and sisters.
    Anakin Skywalker was once everything to him. And Obi-Wan is ashamed to admit that he still is.
