Star Wars Legends, an elegant storyline from a more civilized age.

[seetheious]

Never knew this star wars lore was this good until I came across your channel. You tell it in a very engaging way, thank you.

[TransSappho]

The early je’daii sound much better than the Jedi. The recognized that balance was important instead becoming useless balls of repressed emotions

[floydmichaelmoss]

Good job we appreciate all your hard work drawing everything out you are very talented and deserve more views and subscribers may the force be with you 🙏🏿

[CivilizationEx]

Most of the info in this series comes from the 3 part Dawn of the Jedi comics.

[Jimholy]

Dark siders were sent to ashla to meditate to bring balance and lightsiders were sent to bogan to bring balance

[quantashonjamaldigglerbury]

alright the je'daii at some points in time should've known they made the wrong decisions and im not saying they were the perfect force organization but i'd say that their philosophy of achieving balance with both the dark and light sides were correct

[sivanlevi]

It's sad that they were dedicated to balance in the Force, yet it took thousands of years for the Chosen One to find it again after they disregarded it.

[Nogdog]

Personally my headcanon for the weapon master mentioned in the consular storyline for swtor is actually Xesh. Xesh truly committing to the Je’daii he sought to find a substitute that could replace by forcesabers and better make force imbued blades.

He found out a technique of meditating on a crystal and imbedding into the hilt of a force imbued blade and was able to block and compete with a force saber.

But Xesh never gave up on the idea of a better made forcesaber. And this created the ‘first blade’ lightsaber but never got to complete it and was left behind in his grave when he died in the force wars and his legacy was reduced to the ‘weapon master’ by the droids that wandered kaleth on tython

A channel like CivEx! should at least have a million subscribers. Growth is too slow. Come on guys let's support him by pushing the subscribe button.

[aamirrazak]

Thanks for posting the complete video this lore is awesome! The je’daii rock!

[kianhardwick]

Plz anyone who is super knowledgeable with Star Wars plz could u let me know what order books I should read in? I’ve googled it and there’s so many different ways and everyone says different things is there a once and for all way through? Im a bit autistic so it’s a bit stressful trying to know

[ThePoopsmith-]

Shikaakwa was the original name of the area today called Chicago.

[jamajnasoares]

Anyhow GREAT video! Finally, the origins of the Origins.
(if there is any previous story :O let me know living library)

Thank you for your service, Sir.

[Mephilis]

When the creature Bendu calls himself "Bendu" is he suggesting he is an entity of pure balanced force? Like the personification of Bendu as a concept. Or is he just saying he's a regular force sensitive creature who simply chooses to remain balanced, and not sway to either side?

[thebluepig]

Is there’s going to be a Tales of the Jedi vol 2 anyone know?

[sethdavidhanson]

Whoever wrote Daegen's story is definitely a massive fan of A Song of Ice and Fire.

[Nogdog]

My personal head canon for a swtor tie-in is xesh help pave the way for Force imbued swords with crystals placed somewhere in the hilt of the sword itself and thus giving them a true means to go toe to toe with a force saber. But this revelation only caused more internal strife in the order as Daegan Lok and Rajivari both refused to put down the forcesabers. With an already completely divided order the new Jedi order was founded with the belief of the lightside and usage of force imbued swords with crystals. But xesh never gave up on the forcesaber even making a working prototype of the first blade (the first ever modern functioning lightsaber that did not require the dark side or a power pack)

Rajivari for a time was apart of the founding council but he struck at them when he felt their ideas were not in line with his and fled to kaleth with his students and Daegan as they made a last stand against the Jedi but failed and fell back to the forge where he held out and let the rest of those who still followed the dark side duke it out with what also remained of the flesh raiders. This throwing Tyrion completely out of balance and devastating the planet the newly christened Jedi order boarded sleeper ships along a vast majority of the populace of the tython system and headed into the unknown…

[Mephilis]

I've had people argue with me to say that the light side of the force is balance. (This usually comes when I point out that Anakin achieved balance by reducing the number of force users to two jedi and two sith).

The story of the Je'daii kind of proves my point. Anybody know if the prophecy dates back to this era? It would explain why the jedi and sith both have slightly biased versions of the same prophecy, if it was inherited from the Je'daii.
