The First Mission to the Jedi Temple was an assignment carried out by Galen Marek to complete his training in preparation of facing several Jedi.

Contents

[edit] Assignment

After Marek defeated Rahm Kota in the Battle of the TIE Fighter Construction Facility, Darth Vader sent his apprentice to the ruins of the Jedi Temple in order to prepare for his next mission.

[edit] Infiltrating the Temple

Touching down on the Imperial landing pad that had been erected on the staircase of the entrance to the Temple, Marek executed all of the stormtroopers standing guard there. Entering through the damaged Main Hall, Marek fought his way through more Imperials to one of the upper level corridors. The entrance to the library being sealed, the Sith apprentice retreated into a hallway that was blocked by debris from the ceiling.

[edit] Trial of Skill

Marek enters the Jedi Trials chamber.

Walking down a corridor, Marek entered the largely intact Jedi Trials Chamber. Once within it, his presence activated the Jedi training program modelled after the long-dead Sith Lord, Darth Desolous. Leeching off Marek's fear, Desolous program began his attack, wielding a cortosis shield and a red lightsaber.

Marek successfully fended off the hologram's lightsaber blows and used Force lightning to send the program reeling. Though the Desolous program imitated the original Sith Lord's very powerful usage of the Force, it was no match for the raw power that Vader's apprentice possessed. Hurling pieces of the surrounding statues at his adversary, Marek eventually wore down the avatar's defenses.

Near defeat, the Desolous program made a final attempt at destroying Marek, and failed. Marek then used the Force to hurl Desolous's hologram towards the main statue at the top of the hall, and up along the statue's surface. The program was then cast down from the statue's face and hurled into the stone floor. With a final pull of the Force, the main statue came crumbling down on the hologram of the ancient Sith Lord, defeating him and ending the Trials program.

[edit] Aftermath

Immediately after the training program had ended, PROXY, Marek's holodroid companion entered with orders from Darth Vader. Marek then left the Temple to begin his hunt for Jedi Master Kazdan Paratus.
