@ivan ivanovitch ivanovsky the Celestials had already departed the living realm by the time The Infinite Empire started its first interstellar conquests. The Rakata waged war with the Celestials' "Firstborn" races and The Firstborns' very own genetically engineered offspring races. The Rakatan species themselves are evil mutants created from abducted Gungans on their homeworld of Lehon that were forever transformed via genetic experimentation by Cold Danda Sine (a fallen celestial child) in the depths of Otherspace; an abysmal alternate dimension. The Celestials were forbade by "The Supreme Maker" to dwell with their fallen creations after they turned away from them in favor of sin and warfare. The Rakata and other terrible races that came to inhabit the galaxy all those eons ago were usually unholy abominations made by Cold Danda Sine and released upon the normal galaxy to sow chaos and death to the Celestial crafted universe. Through the jealousy and simmering hatred of Tilotny, the curious and morally indifferent Cold Danda Sine, the apathy of Horliss-Horliss, and the naivete andintellect of Splendid Ap, the galaxy and universe would fall into disarray and eternal strife. Forever would there be war among the stars; at least unti the Greater Restoration. For tend of thousands of years if heinous and supernatural warfare would wage across the galaxy and be known collectively as The Cosmic Wars. History of this conflict and its influence across the galaxy and the greater universe would devolve into myth and legend just a few millennia after it had ended at the hand of a divinely transformed Horliss-Horliss. By the time of The First Alsakan Conflict history on The Cosmic Wars was all but lost to time so by the time of The Galactic Empire almost all knowledge of the terrible ancient conflict was gone. Only those who had the strongest of mental fortitude and went to the greatest of archaeological researching could unearth the long forgotten tales of The Cosmic Wars and what unholy dangers lurked beyond the veil of percieved reality...

@ivan ivanovitch ivanovsky I knew you'd start going off about this. Good; shows you have interest in the topic. Okay, if you'd be so kind as to read the entirety of this (sadly unpublished) Star Wars novel I'd be eternally grateful. Link is here -> www.starwarstimeline.net/Supernatural_Encounters.htm This novel details the very beginning of the Star Wars universe, its early history and nicely ties up several (but not all) loose ends that plagued Legends. If you're a lore guys then this should be a quite enjoyable read. If not and you like simpler explanations of things and events then this will be quite the complicated ride. Also a fair warning, Joe Bongiorno's writing style takes influence from H.P. Lovecraft. Lots of adjectives 😄

Shaping galaxies "on a whim" doesn't mean instantly. And I feel like that is an important point to make. If the Celestials /are/ the Force, and we know the Force is always working on its own machinations, then it seems likely that the Celestials are only all-powerful in the grand scheme of things, but not so much in the minute-to-minute minutia of the universe.

@@thalmoragent9344 From what we know about them, they qualify for a Type III civilization. Quite literally. Not just like galactic civilizations that we see in Star Wars and Star Trek and others. But, a civilization that can basically do whatever they want, including collapsing the cores of stars from across the Galaxy, creating your own Star systems and setting up galactic barriers, and all in such a way that modern galactic civilization can only wonder about. What I’m proposing is that what they mean by Celestrials might just be refer to all pre-historical type III civilizations that not only left their tech or evidence of their tech that’s far beyond them, behind, but also that they have no knowledge of who or what they were. I mean, I know that this takes place “A Long, Long Time Ago…”. but the ingredients and conditions for life as know it just here on Earth date back at least 3.5 billion years, for the universe it dates back to about 7.5 billion years ago with a short period within the 1st one billion years after the beginning where the ambient temperature of space itself was “room temperature” and oxygen is the 3rd most abundant element in the universe and readily bonds with hydrogen. Meanwhile the oldest peoples and that know about only date back to about a million years, perhaps only a few million years in regards to ‘the Ones’. To put it another way; The history of Galactic civilization dates; 2.5*10^4 years. + 1.2*10^4 yrs for the pre-Republic, pre-Jedi era. What they know about who they call the Celestials; X*10^6 years For life in the universe; 8*10^9 years with a small chance at 13*10^9 And artificially, it’s theoretically possible to extend the years of your civilization into the future by; X*10^36 years if you are willing to live around the supermassive or ultramassive blackholes in the center of your Galaxy. With your only light source being completely artificial beyond maybe a few low mass stars that your people created since the last natural stars died out X*10^15 years after the beginning. And you could possibly extend that span to the next best thing to infinity if you are creative and willing to upload all of your people into a simulation with a crazy high time dilation. So I don’t see the problem with saying what and who they mean by ‘the Celestrials’ might be an agglomeration of all prehistoric civilizations that left advanced tech behind. And being opportunistic scavengers, it’s quite possible that the Rakata might not have invented hyperdrive as we give them credit for. It’s just that the modern hyperdrive was based off their version of the tech, since earlier FTL is possible in Star Wars and earlier people’s obviously got around the Galaxy somehow. I’ve always had a problem with how short most SciFi extends back in time. And then we get to series’ ‘Mass Effect’ where ‘the Reapers’ as we know them were created at least a billion years ago. Or like ‘the Expanse’ and we have an ancient Type III civilization on the scale like the Celestrials called ‘the Builders’ who date back at least 5 billion years and went extinct 1 or 2 billion years back.

In my personal opinion, I’m a fan of having this lore about ancient cosmic beings in the distant past. It adds a feeling of wonder and depth to the Star Wars galaxy, the sense that not all was once as it is now. At the same time, I wouldn’t be a fan of bringing the ancient cosmic beings into the present time of the Star Wars narrative, as it loses much of the mystery these beings lend the distant past when you can suddenly perceive them for yourself.

You get it in a random event during interactions with the shroud if your empire is psychic, "Suddenly, in a painful moment of clarity, the nature of our existence is laid bare. A multiverse where thousands of galaxies like our own are locked in endless cycles of conflict. It begins, it ends, and then it begins again. Each time with trillions of lives hanging in the balance.

Tilotny is his vanity, Horliss-Horliss is his remoteness, Cold Danda Sine is his impatience and Splendid Ap is his apathy; apparently it got so bad that he intended to kill them which only made the situation become so much worse.

Jacen Solo Impressive my friend. I went to StarWarsTimeline.com a while back and read Supernatural Encounters and Cult Encounters and the lore/exposition dump is so massive you'll have an aneurism realizing just how much shit really happened in Star Wars Legends 😎
I like this outlook on the Ones, The Celestials are the Cosmic Force so they take on incomprehensible forms, and The Ones are the Living Force split into the Light, Dark, and Balance seen by the living and take on the mortal bodies.
i saw the magic the gathering character on the thumb nail and got all sorts of excited that you were including the magic universe in an episode, but still great video as always! been watching since you started out. keep up the amazing content! i also challenge you to do a video on the magic the gathering world and compare it's power to any of the other Nerdom you want
I see that mtg art in the thumbnail. I see

stop being humbel eck. you are 100% the best star wars youtuber

One of my favourite videos from you in a while
Ma boi Kruphix in the thumbnail? Could it be? EckhartsLadder using a time-appropriate MTG reference to come out as an MTG player? Huzzah!
I always found it interesting how some character that's seen somethng so insane could remember everything with extreme detail
Has there ever been a character in Legends who didn't realize they were Force-sensitive until much later in life?

Yes! Spoiler for the Knights of the Old Republic comics though. Demagol, a Zeltron, was at least 40s-50s with teenage-to-early-20s children of his own when he first consciously used the Force.
- Phenomenal piece of information!!! Awesome!!! Thank you!!!
Love this stuff, thank you.
Oh boy, the left guy on the thumbnail is Kruphix, the god of horizons from Magic the gathering
Talks about star wars and uses magic the gathering art. I have new respect for Eck now
Gotta love the retro music in the background

Great video!! Lets just not mention episode 7 8 or 9. I have a strong feeling that they will be removed from the Star Wars official time line in the future if not near future. Amazing work as always!!
9 seconds ago... Last time I was this early...
Nice Kruphix for the thumbnail mtg stuff is always welcome
"saw strange ships, and heard them scream and moan" **shadow battlecrab has entered the chat**
Where does the time go ?? I remember watching a bunch of your content throughout the year, still really enjoy the videos
You're in my top 3 star wars youtubers
“Black battleships whose spines were stacked with spiked cathedrals” No, that's clearly a Warhammer 40,000 reference haha
Love that you used MTG art for Kruphix in your thumbnail art
Keep it up man!
How powerful are Federation Phasers and Protons by the end of the Dominion war since they were updated by alot and were capable of damaging a Borg cube that had already had counter measures because of the first Borg cube that was destroyed. The 20 ships the Tal Shiar and Obsidian Order used in their operation against the Dominion were able to heavily damage the crust layer of the Founders homeworld in the first vale which would of took atleast teratons of destructive output. So are we looking at the Federation's post Dominion weapons over the hundreds of teratons?

I believe the Ones are post-death Celestials, kind of like how Martians ascend after death in Stranger In a Strange Land.
I liked how Fate of the Jedi tied in with The Clone Wars with the Ones
I recently finished the mortis ark and I wanted to watch this to find you more but this gave all the same info I already had
Now the question is, did Valkorion ascend to Godhood ?
"i heard them scream and moan." oh god.
So... No ones is talking about the awesome 15 second long ending video. I love it.
God you got me so hyped with that MTG thumbnail... It'd be interesting to maybe see you reach out to that world, if you're interested!!

Enough debris and burned/melted particles in space could resemble smoke.
I have been looking for that Teshik quote for _hours,_ thank you. I forgot who said it, when, the context, and pretty much every word except 'cathedrals'. Its been a long few hours. But I found out there's a Darth Vader gargoyle on a cathedral in Washington. That's cool.
Would love to see a MOVIE explore this
The Mortis Arc was always painful to me. Doesn't make much sense and it seems they've completly missed the point of what "Balance" means.. At least what it used to mean under Lucas.

Lucas actually worked on the Mortis arc, so I don’t think it would’ve gotten made if he didn’t okay it. My personal interpretation is that “balance” merely refers to a state of peace within the force. Whether that peace is attained through there being no darkness at all, or by ensuring that darkness doesn’t overpower light, it’s still “balance.” I think this especially makes sense when you see how much dark side shit Luke does in Ep VI, like choking guards.

The interpretation I like to go with is that the closest thing in the Star Wars universe to true god is the Living Force. Essentially meaning that all of life and existence is part of one divine reality. This relates pretty closely to the Hindu and some Buddhist views on the nature of the divine. And since George Lucas loosely modeled the Jedi and their teachings on this sort of eastern spirituality, it seems to make the most sense that the Force itself and therefore the universe as a whole is god.

Really interesting topic 👍
Actually, if Star Wars is canon in mtg, kruphix may know about it as he is the oldest of the gods on theros’s pantheon and has learned of other plains through hundreds of years of meeting planeswalkers visiting there’s.
No mention of Tilotny and Splendid Ap??? 😢😢😢
