[edit] Plot summary
- "The drums of conflict are my beating heart."
- ―Grievous dreaming about the past[src]
During a time of war, a Kaleesh warrior holds a skull of a member of his own species. The warrior reveals that he has toppled nations, slain legends, and killed kings, and those who had heard of him were fearful of him. However, he says that these are all fading dreams of the past. He now feels failure and can only find his old vigor when he is at war. But the soldiers he now commands aren't the same warriors he led in the past. These troops that now serve under the once Kaleesh warrior's command aren't the ones from his dreams.
The dreaming Kaleesh warrior is revealed to be Confederate General Grievous. While he continues to dream in his personal starfighter, the Soulless One, a B1 battle droid interrupts his thoughts to tell him that Count Dooku is trying to make contact with him. However, Grevious ignores the droid and continues onward to his castle on the third moon of Vassek.
