The Star Wars stories the movies never told.
Every episode is one story from the books, the comics and the games. Darth Plagueis, the Sith who could keep people from dying. Darth Bane, the miner who wrote the Rule of Two. Revan, the Jedi who won a war and was wiped clean by his own side. Told straight through, in the words a book would use, and painted plate by plate in the style of the 1970s fantasy covers.
Long episodes here every week. Each one is cut into three parts for short video, and the parts point back here for the full, uncut story.
Art is made with AI image models under our direction, from our own prompts and reference paintings. The voice is a licensed synthetic narrator. Every story is the book's story, in our words. Star Wars belongs to Lucasfilm. This is a fan channel.

Everyone calls Darth Nihilus the Sith Lord who ate planets.
But the hunger was eating him from the first time he fed. Every world he fed on wore his body down a little more.
When the last Jedi met in secret on Katarr, he spoke and every one of them died. Then one woman got onto his ship, and his hunger couldn't touch her.
The full illustrated episode premieres on Sunday, with a new clip every day until then.

Darth Bane wrote the Rule of Two, and his first apprentice waited twenty years to use it on him.
When she won, he reached for her body instead of dying, and the witness had to ask whether she was talking to Zannah or to Bane. Tomorrow's film follows both of them from a burning forest on Ruusan to that last night on Ambria.
The full illustrated episode premieres tomorrow at 1 pm Central.

In Revenge of the Sith, Palpatine tells Anakin the Rule of Two the way everybody knows it: the apprentice kills the master.
Darth Bane's first apprentice waited twenty years to do it. When she finally beat him, he tried to take her body, and the only witness had to ask which of them was still standing there.

In The Phantom Menace the Council calls the Sith extinct, and twenty minutes later Yoda tells the same room there are always two.
Nobody asks him how he knows. Tomorrow's film follows that answer back a thousand years, to the Jedi who reported a living Sith Lord and the Master who told him to drop it.

Why didn't the Jedi ever look for the second Sith? They were warned more than once, and they had the Rule of Two in their own archives.
One report was buried, one search party never came home, and a thousand years later the same rule hid Palpatine in plain sight.

The Sith Empire was a cult ⚔️
It was a cult that happened to own a star fleet, and the man who built it never won a battle in his life. He got there by making a whole people need him, and he did it twice.

The Sith nobody could kill ⚔️
He invited eight thousand Sith Lords to one room. One of them walked out.
The man who sent those invitations had never won a fight in his life. He killed all of them in ten days, drank the planet they were standing on, and told the survivors the Jedi did it. They believed him for thirteen hundred years.
