Okay, so we all remember the moment when Obi wan used the force to pull himself out of the
reactor shaft and simultaneously grabbed Qui Gon’s lightsaber, jumping over Darth
Maul and slicing him in half. Now most people would assume the image of the two halves of
Maul falling down the reactor shaft would be the last we would see of him. However that
was most certainly not the case, as Darth Maul miraculously survived. So what exactly happened?
While falling down the reactor shaft, Maul, who was still alive,
channeled all his hate and willed himself to survive. He used the force to grab onto
an air vent and from there somehow got himself into a trash container.
Eventually he would be sent to Lotho Minor, a planet of trash and junk, where he would
have his legs replaced with a six-legged mechanism enabling him to walk once more.
He ended up remaining in exile on the planet for years, where he would become
both increasingly angry and driven to get revenge on Obi Wan for doing this to him.
Meanwhile, Mother Talzin knew that Maul was still alive somewhere in the Outer Rim,
and summoned his brother Savage Opress to go and find him.
Equipped with a talisman, Opress went out to find Maul, eventually locating him on Lotho Minor.
At this point, Maul had essentially lost his mind
to the point where he did not even recognize his own brother.
All he wanted to do was have his revenge on Obi Wan. Opress took him back to Dathomir
where Mother Talzin restored his mind and gave him a new set of cybernetic legs.
With both his body and his mind restored, Maul would continue on his quest to get revenge
against Obi Wan. Eventually, after luring Obi Wan out, Maul and Opress would capture Obi wan.
Asajj Ventress would come to Obi wan’s rescue and
at this point Maul and Obi wan would have their first lightsaber battle in a decade.
Being crafty, Maul would try to emotionally
overwhelm Obi Wan by telling him about how he slaughtered Qui Gon all those years ago.
Obi wan would become overwhelmed by these words, opting to escape the battle with Ventress instead.
At this point, Maul knew that Obi Wan would start pursuing him,
which was beneficial to Maul in his plans for revenge.
Maul and Opress began a rampage across the galaxy, eventually ending up on Florrum. Here they would
bribe a crew of pirates into helping them, killing those who refused. Obi Wan would catch up to
them here, and they would once again battle,but this time with Adi Gallia instead of Ventress.
After the death of Gallia in the battle, Obi Wan would be left to face the two brothers alone.
He would eventually slice off Opress’ arm, and fearing that they were outmatched, Opress and
Maul fled. They would barely escape the planet after the crew they hired turned against them,
then the engine of their ship was hit with a rocket launcher,
and the ship was subsequently incinerated.
And there you have it!
