It's Friday, so that must mean it's time for another incremental information leak from the folks over at <a href="http://www.bioware.com">BioWare</a>. Today, the official <a href="http://www.swtor.com"><em>Star Wars: The Old Republic</em></a> website has <a href="http://www.swtor.com/news/news-article/20100611_001">updated</a> with a new Timeline holorecord focusing on the Jedi Civil War and narrated by Jedi Master Gnost-Dural (the unmistakable <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lance_Henriksen">Lance Henriksen</a>).<br />
<br />
The video covers some familiar ground for <em>Knights of the Old Republic</em> fans, as it brings us up to speed concerning the search for the Star Forge, the exploits of Darths Revan and Malak, and the introduction of fan favorite Bastila Shan. The narrative also hints at upcoming exposition regarding the legendary Mandalorian Wars, as well as Revan's mysterious vanishing act.<br />
<br />
"<em>Though Revan was ultimately redeemed and restored peace to the galaxy, he disappeared afterward in search of a great darkness in Deep Space. Through his investigation, Master Gnost-Dural now confirms that this great darkness is the Sith Empire the Jedi Order battles today</em>," says the press release.

Ho hum, another Friday, another slick update for <a href="http://www.bioware.com">BioWare's</a> forthcoming <a href="http://www.swtor.com"><em>Star Wars: The Old Republic</em></a> behemoth. Head on over to the official <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/swtor"><em>TOR</em></a> site to view the latest video entry in the Galactic Timeline, narrated by Jedi Master Gnost-Dural (actor Lance Henriksen).<br />
<br />
This week's tale is a harrowing tragedy of two Jedi scholars and their brush with madness, Massassi warriors, and the dark spirit of Sith Lord Naga Sadow on Yavin IV.  Gnost-Dural discovers that, even at the height of one of the Republic's most peaceful eras, sinister forces were hard at work sowing the seeds of chaos for the wars to come.<br />

The fifth holorecord from the Jedi Archive is <a href="http://www.swtor.com/news/news-article/20091023_001">The Battle of Bothawui</a> which recounts a major Republic victory against the Sith. It also chronicles the last stand of a heroic group of Jedi knights and Republic troopers, who became martyrs in the struggle against the Sith Empire. <br /><br />If you're following along with the lore of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/star-wars-the-old-republic"><em>Star Wars: The Old Republic</em></a> you'll want to watch "<a href="http://www.swtor.com/info/holonet/timeline/battle-bothawui">The Battle of Bothawui</a>" on the game's official site.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/10/23/the-old-republic-timeline-video-chronicles-heroic-last-stand-at/">The Old Republic timeline video chronicles heroic last stand at The Battle of Bothawui</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:30:00 EST.
