Galacta Knight

Galacta Knight is a "Legendary Warrior of the Past" and is the secret main antagonist in Kirby Shadowy Hearts. He is an ancient knight that became obsessed with power so badly that the ancient Kitxias sealed him away. He was later freed by Narnar.

## Backstory

Galacta Knight was a knight of Popstar from long ago. His old name was Galaxon, before he rose up to the knight rank. He had a little sister named Galaxia (Meta Knight's sword's namesake) whom he trained as his apprentice. One day, Galacta Knight made an announcement that he was leaving Popstar for good. Most people were displeased to hear this, especially his sister. He convinced her that he wanted to explore the galaxy and find amazing wonders that he could take back home, but it reality he was just going out there in search of power, and was never coming back. After saying his final farewell to his friends and family, he set off in his rocket ship into the stars.

Galacta Knight spent many years slowly building up his power to the point he was considered one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy. He traveled all around helping others to gain allies and powers from the evils he defeated. He founded the Knights of Yore, a team that consisted of the four most powerful knights in the galaxy. The team consisted of himself, King Dargoe of Floralia, MetalKnight 3000: a robot designed by Galacta himself, and the lonely Morpho Knight.

One day, the Ancients were being attacked by the monster known as Void Termina, and despite their immense power, couldn't defeat it. Galacta saw this as an opportunity to gain the trust of the most powerful race in the universe, as well as harvesting the powers of Void Termina. He and his team fought long and hard against the monster and eventually were able to seal it away. Galacta Knight expected to be praised and glorified but was instead feared by the Ancients. They attacked him, but he got away.

Galacta Knight was furious at them, but at the same time realized: *If they fear me, then that means I must be more powerful than them, and that I am strong enough to do whatever I want without consequence!* This is when he started to spread a wave of terror throughout the galaxy. Destroying planets, ruining the lives of thousands, and stealing powers from people who he once called his friends. He even took some power from Zero to create a monster that helped him on his conquest. His team's bond had shattered during this period, King Dargoe was the first to go, as he hated how Galacta had changed his ways, and his kingdom went to war. Galacta Knight spared all but Dargoe in that fight. The next to go was MetalKnight 3000 who tried stealing all of Galacta's power to prevent him from continuing his rampage. When Galacta found out about his creation's actions, he quickly destroyed the robot, leaving no remains behind. Finally, Morpho Knight was the last to go, she disappeared without a trace. The Ancients realized their grave mistake and set out an army to go after him.

Galacta was aware of the approaching army and so he sat and waited for their arrival on his ship, The Lancer. During his wait, he got a surprise visit from a former friend, Morpho Knight. She stated that she had always been watching and judging him since the day he met, and now knew that he was unworthy of the power he held and that he must be taken down; it was time for judgement day. The two fought for what felt like hours, and Galacta was shocked at how powerful she was and was worried that he would lose. So, as a last-minute resort, he used the most powerful ability he had and turned her into a harmless butterfly. The butterfly quickly retreated and Galacta Knight was left alone once more, except he was weaker. Using that much power had taken a toll on him.

When the Ancient Army finally showed up, they entered a harsh and long battle, but in the end, they were able to trap the Aeon Hero due to his weaker state, preventing him from doing any more harm. They sent him to another dimension where he remains imprisoned to this day. His monster was lost to time being passed around through the ages as some random locked box by countless people without them realizing the true horrors within. Today, the box is kept inside Dream Land's castle. At last, the galaxy was free from the Knight that sought power..... for now.
