Many of years before the Clone wars broke out on the desert world of Geonosis, the Sith roamed the
galaxy in silence hoping to avoid the ire of the Jedi and conduct their dark side teachings without
much notice. They knew their time to strike and take back the galaxy had not yet come, but still
pushed their teachings forward. And thats exactly what one Sith Master and apprentice pair were
doing when they came across a young girl who had been enslaved by a Toydarian trader… Unfortunately
for the apprentice he quickly fell in love with this captured girl, which there was strictly
no place for under current Sith teachings… What happened next though is heartbreaking…
So, lets break down the tragic story of the Sith apprentice who fell in love. And before we dive
in, make sure you leave a like on the video for more awesome Star Wars content just like this!
The story begins on a remote, but thriving outer rim world with a bustling cityscape rivalling
that of somewhere in the mid rim. The time is not too far before the days of Darth Tenebrous
and his apprentice, Darth Plagueis. Inside a local trader’s shop, two ominous Sith lords
are visiting and have just purchased a large crate of supplies and in the middle of an intel exchange
with a local spy… but they haven’t yet paid for the supplies. They also don’t want any evidence
being left for their collection of the intel, so they decide to take extraordinary measures.
As the Sith master is collecting the drop, he very carefully and stealthy places a blase charge under
the counter before walking out and waiting for the right moment. As soon as the master and his
apprentice get far enough away from the shop, the trigger is pulled and the entire place goes up in
a tremendous burst of red and yellow flames. Alarms ring out on the entire street and the
smoke can be seen from miles away, so the two Sith know its time to get off this god-forsaken rock.
Now after this, master Finn hands off the drop to an unknown man and things are going well until a
pushy Toydarian approaches with his young slave girl, attempting to get the attention of the two
dark robed men. The young Sith Apprentice eagerly asks his master what he should do,
but Master Finn firmly tells him to ignore all contact and keep your eyes forward.
Insisting that the two dark robed men stop, the Toydarian named Lod walks close and asks
if they would be interested in collecting another servant… Lod says he’s prepared to
be quite reasonable and flexible on the price… The savage Toydarian then asks his slave named
Marka to show her teeth to the two gentlemen in front of her, but shockingly to him she says no.
Lod is astounded by this as his slave has never disobeyed his orders like this before and
instantly falls into a deep rage. The toydarian then slaps Marka to the ground with a single
swing, warning her to do what her master says. This leaves the Young Sith Apprentice shocked
and disheartened, even slightly disturbing Master Finn… and he’s literally a seasoned Sith master.
And by the way we never get a name for the Sith Apprentice in this story, so make sure
you leave a comment down below giving a name that you think is fitting for this young Sith.
After this, Rage flows through the Sith Apprentice and he rushes over to help Marka,
warning the disgraceful Toydarian not to ever strike her again.
Ever. While the young boy is helping Marka up and making sure she’s ok,
Lod jokes to Master Finn “Your slave a bit of a temper ay”?... This was a bad move.
This then causes the Sith Apprentice to lash out with pure rage and fury,
slicing the Toydarian through the chest while crying out “I am no slave”.
With his blood rushing and his body shaking, the Sith apprentice looks back at the young
girl for one last time and has a glimmer in his eye… But at this point he knows he
can’t do anything about it. He will probably never see this beautiful young girl again.
With Marka dropped to her knees in shock at the death of her own master, the Sith Master
Finn tells his apprentice that he is extremely disappointed. The apprentice then protests this
saying that the Toydarian insulted him, so he should be able to jab back. Master Finn quickly
shuts this down however , warning his apprentice not to interrupt. He is not disappointed that
the apprentice lashed out, but he is disappointed that he helped the girl up after she was struck.
Giving his apprentice a much needed lesson,
the Dark Master tells him that Empathy is a Jedi Trait. Empathy leads to understanding.
Understanding Leads to compassion. Compassion leads to love. There is
no place for love for a Sith. Deep inside, the apprentice thinks he loves this girl,
but obviously now he can never reveal his true feelings, lest he be obliterated by his master.
Upon finishing this little lesson, Master Finn whips his first out from his robe and immediately
punches his apprentice warning him that there is only hate. With the apprentice lying on the floor
nearly out cold, Marka watches on in horror as this was the exact thing that just happened to
her. The blue haired girl then rushes over to help the apprentice and grabs him by the arm,
thanking him for earlier where he saved her life. She then begs him to take her with them… and the
young apprentice deep within him wants to do it, with a love for this girl brewing… But he
stops and remembers the painful lesson that was just taught to him by his master… He must not do
this. Because of that lesson, he tells her that he must go and rushes back off to his master.
When running back to the menacing Sith Lord, the young apprentice shouts out and the Master
instantly knows that something sinister has happened. The young girl tried a force mind
trick on him. Master Finn says “did you not sense her presence in the force when they approached?”.
The young boy doesn’t know how to respond, but he notices that she is still following
them. At this point, master finn is convinced that the reason they were brought here today
may have something to do with this girl. Even as a Sith Lord who endeavours to bend
the course of history and the will of the force, he knows that there are no coincidences in it.
Now the master travels up the nearby turbolift, while his apprentice says
that he must deal with her. Finn agrees and watches from a platform above,
where their dark black ship is stationed. Master finn clicks his belt buckle which
unlocks the vehicle and he steps up to the entry platform when his apprentice and Marka return.
The apprentice is about to admit that he wants to take Marka with them but before he can even get
his words out, Marka begs Master finn to take her and says that she can learn the ways of the force…
Master Finn however says he has no use for a slave like her and he already has an apprentice.
At this point, Marka knows exactly what she must do. Without a moment of hesitation, she turns
around and pushes the boy who saved her life off of the nearby balcony and steals his lightsaber
while doing it. With only a small moment to realize what has just happened, the a swell of
emotions is likely rushing through him, with anger and hatred coming from his Sith teachings and also
sadness and horror at being betrayed by the girl he fell in love with. Being totally unexpected,
the apprentice’s heart probably breaks in mid air and he has no time to react or use to the
force to save himself. His body splatters on the cold, hard ground and he is killed on impact.
A tragic end for the Sith who fell in love despite it being heavily forbidden by his
Master’s teachings. Marka herself has just shown that she has the heart of a true sith.
Marka then looks down at the death she just caused with a glowing red filling her eyes,
marking her true descent into the dark side of the force. She has taken her first steps into
a new and dark world, one that will test her and push her to her limits. She will either break and
be replaced by yet another darksider or she will survive to kill Master Finn and be immortalized in
the lineage of Darth Bane. She will either fail just like the boy she killed or her teachings
will make it all the way down through the line of Sith Lords to Darth Vader. We currently don’t
know her fate in Canon, so let me know in the comments if you think she is strong enough to
take down Master Finn and become the new master. At this point, the Sith Master has no choice but
to recruit Marka as his new apprentice in order to continue the Rule of Two.
Although the rule of two usually applies to the apprentice killing the master,
in this case the apprentice was the weaker of the two and was replaced by a girl far
stronger… Just like what would happen to Dooku many years in the future.
As Marka boards the ship her teachings in the dark side will now begin and the line
of the Sith will continue going on, from finn down to Marka all the way through to Tenebrous,
Plagueis, Sidious and of course Darth Vader.
And to be fair, we don’t know exactly where this story falls on the timeline,
so this could end up being Tenebrous’ master. In Legends Tenebrous’ master was a Twi’lek,
but in Canon there’s no known mention of them so I think it
would be fitting if this took place right before Tenebrous and Darth Plagueis’ time.
So that is the heartbreaking story of the Sith Apprentice who fell in love with a girl
only for her to betray and take his position as a Dark Lord of the Sith.
