The
History of House Galeres of Clan Arcona

I.
The inception of Arcona into the realm of
Clans marked the birth of a noble House:
Galeres, as it was named, given life as
The second child of Arcona, as father Nighthawk
Decreed it; a mighty pillar in the foundation that was
Arcona, in spirit, required a Master Jedi to steer
Galeres' course; and thus was placed Blazer upon
Its throne, gilded in glory, seconded in power by
Trusted ShadowXX.
II.
The song of War is a hard tune not to heed
And distant armies called for the valiant and
True; thus departed Blazer to serve in honor far from
Galeres, without its leader, elevated Z'lar Kahn to
Greatness, but only briefly, as Kahn's path lie
Elsewhere, and proven loyal in his role as Aedile,
ShadowXX took his place at Galeres' helm
III.
With new rule in place, there came an edict
From on High: Grand Master Khyron declared the
Great Houses each embrace their own ancient Order
And Galeres was blessed unto the Obelisk, entering
The Knightly coven, and with distinction came need for
Assistance in rule, and thus from brother-house
Qel-Droma was plucked Kelric, risen to ShadowXX's
Aedile, and with this dark alliance came victory in
The Second Great Jedi War did silver grace
ShadowXX, and unto Kelric bronze, and to Arcona
They brought glory, strength, and a place within Dark
Jedi legend.
IV.
With newfound glory came the call of ascension to
Consul Nighthawk, departing Arcona for distinction
As the Master At Arms for the Dark Brotherhood,
In his wake handing the Arconian reigns to an Archpriest
Of the Krath Order, Elliad Gavron.
V.
Nighthawk's departure was, in retrospect, the first sign
Of dark clouds to overtake glorious Arcona.
VI.
Ektrosis, like once was Arcona, a simple House,
Attained the level of Clan, christened Taldryan,
And with the fervor that arises with new birth
Came the seductive call to Arconians to raise new
Victories in a foreign home, and some followed the
Taldryan Piper's tune, weakening Arcona, further
Expanding the growing depressive void left by
Nighthawk's untimely absence.
VII.
When passed a standard year, from Galeres' seat did
ShadowXX retire, in his wake leaving Battlemaster Tuojas
To guide the Galeres blade in victory, but then came
Revelation: The siren song of Taldryan had drawn ShadowXX
To its treacherous gates, leaving noble Galeres and mighty
Arcona behind; and as change begets more changes,
Aedile Kelric, two years seasoned as Galeres' second in
Command, left to find greatness as Commander of
The Grand Master's Royal Guard.
VIII.
Time and memory mark little of the following
Expanse of House and Clan history so, for it
No words can be accurately expressed.
IX.
History next records one "Havoc" to have replaced
Honored Gavron as Clan leader, and "havoc" is
Precisely what was brought to Arcona under
His rule: disorganization, disillusionment, dis-
Interest in failure from on High led quickly to
Havoc's removal from power, and in his stead came
Loyal and honored Kelric, returned from Royal Guard
Excellence to accept the seat of Consul to Clan Arcona,
And as his ProConsul he chose Galeres' then leader, and
Fellow Obelisk, Magus Lionheart, and as "his" replacement,
Magus elevated his Aedile, Gavin, to Quaestor, and Gavin,
In turn, chose Enahropes Entar as his Aedile.
X.
In life, and in past, evolution is Galeres' lot, and
Following such altering fate, Enahropes went
After one standard month to aspirations more
Spiritual, converting from Obelisk to Krath and
Gavin, unable to effect his position, gave power
Over Galeres to a proven Warrior, Drakal Morth, with
Gavin himself stepping into the shoes of Aedile.
So here is written
the History of House Galeres of
Clan Arcona, forever to be kept and, as is needed,
Continued in honor and in lore so the Dark Jedi yet
To rise will know their honorable past, so better to
Conquer their glorious future.
