The first cinematic trailer shown for the Star Wars: The Old Republic video game depicted the Sacking of Coruscant, and featured Darth Malgus lead a group of Sith against the Jedi Temple. This was the introduction of the Sith named Malgus, and it must have been clear to those at Lucas Licensing that he was an intriguing character to the fans. Shortly after the trailer was released, a novel by Paul S. Kemp was announced. Titled Deceived, it will tell the tale of Darth Malgus, and reveal his story. Today, StarWars.com has released an excerpt from the second chapter of Deceived. If you enjoyed the cinematic trailer, you’ll be fascinated by this excerpt, as it retells the battle in the Temple from Malgus’ point of view. You can read it as a PDF here.
The Old Republic: Deceived will be released on March 22.
