Bane makes an unwise challenge in a desperate attempt to preserve his standing at the Sith Academy and suffers the consequences in this edition of our Darth Bane book club.
It is time for part five of our Darth Bane: Path of Destruction book club. Bane’s victory in the dueling ring has caused him to fear his own abilities. Now, he has shrunk away from the Force. This makes him a target at the Sith academy on Korriban if he doesn’t do anything about it. Therefore, Bane aims for the top and challenges the academy’s top student, Sirrak. There will be repercussions. However, a new ally arrives at the academy in the form of Githany, a former Jedi that betrayed the Republic. She sees potential in Bane and how he might be an asset in her own ambitious plans. However, is she underestimating Bane? We discuss this and so much more in this episode of Podcast Stardust.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Bane’s challenge to Sirak and why he did it,
- The consequences Bane faces from his challenge,
- The introduction of Githany, a Jedi that betrayed the Republic,
- The relationship between Githany and Bane and who is manipulating whom,
- The Sith victories over the Jedi on Ruusan,
- Banes resurgence and plan to reclaim his position at the academy, and more.
