For Good

Summary:

Agent Kallus was not a force for Good. Nor was the Empire. He - it - was a force for peace.

Alternate working titles:
Some Places Agent Kallus Never Thinks About, And A Few He Does
A History of Alexsandr Kallus in 1100 Words

This could have been an old fashioned character meta exploring Kallus’ Imperial loyalty despite its antithetical orientation to his clear moral code and the process of transformative self-discovery, but instead I have written an old fashioned 100-word drabble series masquerading as a 5+ things fic.

Enjoy.

Plus ten more words to make the summary a drabble.

Notes:

I've chaptered this for self-serving word count purposes, but I recommend reading in "Entire Work" view.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: Prologue: Coruscant

Chapter Text

Agent Kallus was not a force for Good. Nor was the Empire. He - it - was a force for peace.

Peace was the moments between drunken screaming blowups, in his family's shadowed, damp room in Coruscant's undercity.

Peace was the Jedi defeated, ending the pointless destruction of the Clone Wars.

Peace was waking in the Academy barracks, to find that the cadet who asked disturbing questions had been reassigned.

Peace was a cratered planet cleared of insurgents, resources mined for the Empire.

Peace was an absence of violence, an end to fighting.

Good was a myth. Agent Kallus fought for peace.
