The first trilogy is the first installment of upcoming films of the Legacy saga that will be produced. The first trilogy will describe key events that took place from the year 37 BBY to 19 BBY before the events of Star Wars: Rise of the Rebellion. The first film primarily focuses on the Jedi Knight Keleran Verso and his Padawan, Galen Fontaine, who later falls to the dark side of the Force and becomes Darth Midous. The last two films focus on Keleran's son, Kenan Verso, and his mentor Del Morrigan, and shows their involvement in the Clone Wars, which results in the destruction of the Jedi Order and the rise of the Sith as the Galactic Republic transforms into the Galactic Empire. It also sets the framework for the following trilogies, introducing characters that will play pivotal roles in the future films.
==Plot summary==
===Return of the Sith===
The saga begins with the Jedi Keleran Verso and his apprentice, Galen Fontaine, being sent to resolve the Sith-orchestrated civil war on Cantonica. After encountering the Sith Lord Darth Maul on Cantonica, Verso begins to receive a series of visions that shows the destruction of the Jedi Order, and he returns to Coruscant to warn the Jedi High Council. However, after much debate with the Council, it is decided not to act without understanding this emerging threat. Therefore, Verso and Fontaine are sent to lead a battle against the Brothers of the Night on Cantonica, and report back on the Sith's involvement. Back on Coruscant after their victory in the battle, Fontaine is promoted to Jedi Knight and Verso is promoted to Jedi Master.
As an outspoken Master with insight on the resurgence of the Sith, Verso is subsequently offered a seat on the Council by Master Yoda. However, after feeling disillusioned with the Jedi Order, Verso declines the offer and announces his departure from the Jedi, wishing to walk down his own path. Before leaving Coruscant, Verso asks for his lover's hand in marriage, Senator Hela Naterrie, and she accepts. The two hold a private ceremony on their home planet of Milano, and Galen attends along with his new apprentice, Rozatta Tey, and the droids, TC-11 and R3-D3. Unbeknownst to him, Verso's decision to leave the Jedi contributed to Galen's eventual fall to the dark side as he seeks guidance from another mentor.
===The Spark of War===
Over the course of the next two films, the Clone Wars has begun between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The film begins with a mysterious attempt on Hela Naterrie's life. Therefore, Jedi Knight Del Morrigan and his apprentice, Kenan Verso, the son of Keleran Verso and Hela Naterrie, are tasked with investigating the attacker. The investigation leads the Jedi to confront Far Tech Alliance President Meeko Shrike on Zygnost. There, Morrigan and Verso discover that Shrike ordered the hit on Naterrie, and he is taken into custody after the bounty hunter Aurra Sing is wounded and escapes. While Shrike is taken to Coruscant to stand trial, the Separatist Head of State Count Dooku, sends his new apprentice, Darth Midous, formerly known as Galen Fontaine, to rescue Shrike from the Jedi. Midous rescues Shrike and sends him to meet Dooku and the other leaders of the Confederacy of Independent Systems on Geonosis.
Meanwhile, Morrigan and Verso return to Coruscant to report back on their mission. The Galactic Senate gives newly-elected Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine emergency powers to raise an army of clones, cloned from the notorious bounty hunter Jango Fett, to combat the rising Separatist threat, becoming the Grand Army of the Republic. As a result, Morrigan is granted the rank of Jedi General, and Verso is granted the rank of Jedi Commander, serving as commanding officers of the clone army. While Morrigan and Verso meet their newly-assigned clone troopers, Darth Midous and Shrike lead an attack on the resource-rich world of Hinari with an army of battle droids. Morrigan and Verso are sent to defeat them, and the Jedi Council contacts Keleran, who is tasked with protecting his wife Hela, to inform him about Galen's fall to the dark side.
With this knowledge, Keleran and the Council agree that the Sith Lord must be defeated. Therefore, Keleran joins Morrigan and Verso on Hinari to battle his former apprentice. On Hinari, Keleran confronts Midous and the two engage in a duel, which results in the death of Keleran. After Midous escapes and leaves his former master for dead, which finalizes his path to the dark side, Morrigan and Verso lead the clone army to victory over the Confederacy. On Milano, the Jedi Order and native Milanians hold a funeral for Keleran Verso, in which Kenan vows to avenge his father's death.
===The Fallen Order===
The film opens with the war veterans Morrigan, Verso, and Jedi Master Tark Doon leading an attack against General Grievous on Falleen. After the battle, Grievous escapes to lead an attack on Coruscant. Meanwhile, on the command of Count Dooku, Darth Midous captures the Sith planet of Vespara, where they plan to establish a New Sith Order and overthrow Darth Sidious, who is secretly Chancellor Palpatine. Doon is dispatched to protect Coruscant from the Separatist attack, while Morrigan and Verso are dispatched to apprehend Midous on Vespara with Morrigan's long-time friend, Jedi Knight Yondo Patton. Leading an army of clone troopers, Morrigan, Verso, and Patton find and capture the Sith Lord, before Morrigan and Verso are contacted by the Jedi Council to lead an attack on Abrion Major. As Morrigan and Verso make their departure to Abrion Major, the captive Midous attempts to lure Patton to the dark side by revealing the Sith's plot to destroy the Jedi Order.
Morrigan and Verso arrive on Abrion Major, where they meet Jedi Master Ran-Bo Nori. While Nori leads the clones against the battle droids, Morrigan and Verso prepare to arrest the Separatist General Greez Findo. However, Palpatine issues Order 66, whereupon the clone troopers are programmed to slaughter the Jedi. On Vespara, Patton is forced to free Midous to survive the attack from the clones, and Patton pledges himself to the teachings of Midous, becoming Darth Arcane. While onboard the Integrity, Morrigan and Verso are also targeted by the clones, but they manage to escape the Star Destroyer and go into exile on the remote world of Batuu with R3-D3. On Vespara, Midous and Arcane enslave the native Vesparans and oversee the reconstruction of the Vespara Sith Temple. After the death of Count Dooku and betrayal of Darth Sidious, Midous forms the Acolyte Order, a breakaway sect of the Sith, and plans to exact his revenge on the Sith during the rise of the Galactic Empire, setting the stage for the dark times to come.
