Reign of the Gods

Shortly after the founding of the Zoiji Confederacy, ancient artifacts called the Infinity Forges were revealed to the public. Essentially Force-powered antimatter generators, they could provide an endless amount of food, credits and other objects. To provide a source of energy, seven billion souls apiece were concentrated into the machines. This allowed the people of the Confederacy to live in a pure communist society. However this utopia came at a cost to Orono. His regal appearance began to wither further. The eyes of his mask had changed. One was fiery red, as if still dripping blood, the other bright blue, weeping for the dead....

A New Era

At last, Orono's original timeline came. With his army of untold legions, he lay in wait until the founding of the New Republic. On the galaxy's capital of Coruscant he came to reason with Luke before the Great Genesis. However, unlike some of the old Jedi Council the Skywalker family could not be swayed. At his signal, a host of battleships darkened the sky with the Salvation-class starships as the vanguard. Smaller gunships descended from them, and the numerous war droids and soldiers flew like locusts to the battle below. While his wife, children and HK-51 led the charge, Orono magnified his voice for all the galaxy to hear,

"Denizens of the Republic and the Empire, do not be afraid. You are innocent in this event. No harm will come to you as we root out the Jedi and Sith. My family and I offer you a utopia, a world free of want or fear. Our ancient machines can provide for you for centuries at a time. All we ask is your loyalty to House Zoiji. Remember, the future is kindest to the victors."

At that moment, Luke slashed at Orono, emerald lightsaber in hand. However Orono's inhuman reflexes proved too much even for him. When the fighting settled, Luke was brought a broken and bleeding mess before a cheering crowd. After being drained of his youth and power, he was locked away beneath the planet itself. The same followed for the Sith. With his plan finally executed, Orono and the Zoiji Confederacy rose to power...

The Muunilinst Convention

With the remnants of Imperial Intelligence on his side, Orono began to showcase his influence. Consolidating numerous companies with centuries of stock holdings, he created Avalon Enterprises. Manufacturing everything from weapons and armor to pharmaceuticals, it would soon cater to the galaxy's every need. Calling a lavish convention on the planet Muunilinst, he demonstrated all of his House's capabilities, with the quintillion-strong HK army as the main attraction. This gained a great deal of support from the people, as House Zoiji seemed stronger than the Republic itself....
