" Plot summary . The Jedi Knight Kerra Holt ' s quest to find her long - lost family leads her to the Odionate , the domain of the Sith Lord Odion . This quest brings her into contact with Odion ' s quest to recover the Helm of Ieldis , an ancient Sith artifact capable of driving sentient beings into a homocidal frenzy . With the " aid " of Kerra , Odion finds the Helm and uses it to destroy the rival Sith Lords Daiman and Malakite ' s armies on Skarpos . Following the events on Skarpos , the Calimondra family matriarch Vilia Calimondra successfully convinces her family to temporarily put aside their differences to stop the threat posed by Odion ' s nihilistic ambitions . In response , his rivals including Daiman and Arkadia Calimondra assembled their fleets , in an effort to prevent Odion from destroying the galaxy . Savoring his successful demonstration on Skarpos , Odion now intended to launch the Helm of Ieldis on a massive scale by drawing dark side energy from the negative emotions of his child captives on Vanahame to cause the entire Grumani sector to collapse into a homicidal frenzy . Odion also planned to eliminate his other Sith family members , ending the stalemated Second Charge Matrica and then become ruler of the galaxy . By killing all other sentient beings with the Helm , Odion aimed to be the sole living being in the entire universe . For the first time , Odion ordered his staff to plunge the planet - sized orphanage into darkness , causing the inmates much fear and panic . Odion then used the Helm to convert their negative emotions into pure dark side energy which was then unleashed on the entire sector . While unleashing his Helm on the galaxy , Odion had his enemy Kerra chained and also used the Helm to drive his Novitiates into a killing frenzy . However , Kerra managed to convince Odion ' s second - in - command Beld Yulan that life had a meaning and that the lives of the children on Vanahame mattered . Disillusioned with Odion ' s nihilistic doctrine and outlook , Yulan entered the Cloister ' s control room where he forced the crew to restore the light within the Cloister and release the children from their bubble prisons . Yulan ' s actions had the immediate effects of ending the children ' s anguish , which ended the Helm ' s homicidal killing - spree immediately . Meanwhile , Kerra managed to break free from her bonds and fight Wayman , one of Odion ' s recruiters who had brought her to the Odionate . Initially , Wayman held the upper hand and was about to kill Kerra when his master was overwhelmed by the sudden surge of positive feelings emanating from the relieved children . While Wayman was distracted , Kerra impales him with a lightsaber . The surge of positive emotions caused the Helm to overload , causing Odion to burn to death . In his last moments , Odion attempted to get Kerra to spare his life by claiming that he could help her find her lost younger sibling . However , Kerra had come to the view that all the captive children were her true brothers and sisters and allowed Odion to die . With Odion ' s death , his realm descended into anarchy as his rivals including Daiman quickly carved up large chunks of territory from the former Odionate . With his humanity and love restored , a redeemed Yulan departed for Republic space with thousands of the former child inmates aboard a fleet of transports . Meanwhile , Kerra vowed to continue her fight to liberate the sector and the children ' s parents themselves from the Sith .
