Prequel to Knights of the Old Republic: Sith Crusade. Planned to be entered into the short story contest.

Chapter One
For two years the Mandalorians tore through the Galactic Republic unchallenged. The Republic forces scattered under the ferocious onslaught of the Mandalorians. At the beginning of the third year of the war, that all changed. The jungle world of Onderon was one of the first to fall to the Mandalorians after they claimed its moon, Dxun, as their own and all but enslaved the population of the world that the moon orbited. The jungle world was also the first world to be taken back from the Mandalorians. The monastic Jedi Order had finally joined the war after two years of slaughter. The Mandalorians met the Jedi gladly, wanting to test themselves against the legendary and mythical figures that most people had only heard tales of. Onderon fell from the grasp of the Mandalorians in less than two months, as the natives united and rebelled against their Mandalorian overlords. Dxun; however, was another story. The Mandalorians seemed to have a deep connection to the jungle moon and did not give in easily.
