User blog:Drewton/THE DREWTON LEGACY: The Next Redos - Chapters 5-11



When I got further into The Drewton Legacy, I wasn't happy with how the beginning four "prologue" chapters were. It wasn't just the pictures; they were fine. It was the story. I saw how terrible it was. So I completely redid them. There wasn't one element from the originals that remained.

A few months ago I decided to do the same with Chapters 5-10. The current planned titles for the chapters are:
 * Chapter 5: Keeping of the Peace
 * Chapter 6: Terrorists of Chaos
 * Chapter 7: Jedi Knight
 * Chapter 8: Crime on Reedro
 * Chapter 9: Terror on Mithus
 * Chapter 10: Separatism

In the originals, two chapters (5 and 6) were taken for the Battle of Naboo with absolutely no fanon events except for the last shot - absurd. The seventh chapter dealt with the fall of Dooku. While it wasn't terrible, it had absolutely nothing to do with the main characters. Then, for the redo, I thought of including Idnum-Ki in the event. However, I then began thinking of too many ideas for one single chapter; therefore, that became Path of Darkness (which is also in progress this week).

Then there was Chapter 8: Terrorist Force. It's not that I don't like how that chapter resulted as. I actually like it. But the main plot isn't what I'd do now. Chapter 9: Coruscant Underlevel Search was a mess. Chapter 10: Discovery of an Army was another terrible canon retelling.

With March Break having commenced, I've done some shooting for Chapter 5: Keeping of the Peace. In this one, nine years have passed since the Siege of Dantooine. Tarisian has joined the Naboo security force, and Raymus, while harassed by the media as he's long been expected to work in politics like his father, is thinking of joining as well. If I get the permission of Justin Cook, Rykrof Enloe will be making a cameo.

Two chapters earlier, the Nockudumey Terrorists make their first appearance in Chapter 6: Terrorists of Chaos, and they won't be under Bodotor Thuvat at this time. Details for Chapter 7 and 8 will come later, because I don't want to spoil everything yet. Chapter 9: Terror on Mithus will be very much like the original Chapter 9. And finally Chapter 10: Separatism shows the Republic Peace Keepers dealing with the growing Separatist movement.

And I'll probably be redoing everything else that follows as well eventually, except for #23: The Threat Within...and possibly extending the redone versions of 1-4 to include more of the battle.

Also, expect an update on Darth Haagen: Heir to the Sith. I keep meaning to post an important announcement about it but every time I try I keep accidentally executing a hotkey that closes Mozilla and I lose all my writing
