A group dedicated to learning, teaching, transmitting the dark side of the force. We wish to reach apotheosis and acquire infinite power in the world, and whatever is required to grant that inner, personal, and political power.
"Byss, a Deep Core world enveloped in the power of the dark side of the Force. There Luke met face-to-face with the Emperor reborn, who revealed that for many years, he took to transferring his mind and consciousness to clone bodies to attain immortality.
However, the clones were one crucial step from long life; they were more ravaged by the dark side than sustained by the Force. But Palpatine had numerous clones to laugh in the face of death, allowing him to rule indefinitely. The Emperor offered him apprenticeship and the prospect of controlling the enormous fleet of Devastators, as well as the rest of the Imperial fleet.
Faced with an impossible situation and with a looming threat of doom for his friends and allies, Luke acquiesced to becoming his apprentice, hoping he could defeat the Emperor from the inside."
