One year ago, Darth Maul was a broken thing with no legs, dragging himself through a junkyard moon, kept alive by nothing but hatred and one name he couldn’t stop repeating. Now he has an army. Not a Sith army, not a Republic army, and not a Separatist one either — a criminal one, built out of the galaxy’s oldest crime syndicates and a splinter faction of Mandalorian extremists who think their own government has gone soft.
This is ARC 6 — the Shadow Collective. Obi-Wan and Duchess Satine’s shared history sets the stakes before Darth Maul returns, unites the galaxy’s crime syndicates, frames Satine for his own crimes, and executes rival Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla on-camera to seize Mandalore’s throne outright. Obi-Wan storms in alone to save her — and watches Maul kill her anyway, right in front of him, before Darth Sidious descends personally to remind his former apprentice exactly who’s still in charge.
