The battle of Dathomir

The first invasion ships land not far from the village of the clan. All the Nightsisters are in battle order and some have even rallied a handful of Nightbrothers to come and defend their sisters. You are standing in the first line alongside Ventress, while waiting for the droids to leave the ships.

Lana: HK, you should find a high ground and snipe as many tactical droids as you can to disrupt their chain of command!

HK69: Don't I get to kill a few of these strange looking folks too? Organic targets are far more entertaining for my motivator!

Lana: No organics today, only droids!

HK69: But master, I am a droid too! They are like brothers to me! Certainly I could kill something else out there in the heat of the battle too!

Lana: Look HK, it's going to be droids that you are shooting or nothing at all and you could sit in the ship during the whole battle!!

HK69: Droids will do nicely! Now that I think about it, they aren't like brothers, only like cousins, no, more like classmates! I have no problem with killing my classmates! Prepare yourselves class, the teacher has arrived!

Ranvi: I don't want this conversation to go on any further with such metaphors...!

HK turns around and runs to find a spot to snipe the enemy commanders.

Lana: We'll show you how to do this Ventress, we have a lot more experience in breaking droids than you!

Ventress: Funny...! If your combat expertise is only twice as good as your humor, you still won't survive this day!

Ranvi: Can't you two just focus your frustration on our enemy? We will have a lot of them, waiting to be defeated!

Drek: Let's hope the Nightsisters will fight as fiercely as I imagine!

Silri (from afar): Any of them could beat you up, that will be enough!

Drek: Oh come on!

Ventress: Hush, they are coming!

The marching sound of hundreds of droid steps could be heard from across the plain in front of you. Their simultaneous steps add a small shake to the ground. The Nightsisters and Nightbrothers are equipped with either energy bows or vibroblades, the archers are hiding on the giant trees and roots of the vegetation, while the melee warriors are behind you. When the droids are at the middle of the plain, you signal the archers to begin firing down upon the enemy while Ventress charges forth with those down on the plain. HK wasted no time and started sniping the moment he saw anything made of metal in the plain.

You closely follow her, while the droid army returns fire at you. Your lightsabers can easily deflect their shots, defending those behind you. The droids are no match for your army, they are slain or shot down piecemeal. You push them back towards their ships, when you spot an other, even larger group of invasion ships landing between you and them. They were carrying B2 series super battle droids, droidekas and commando droids, not just the ordinary B1 series battle droids. Before engaging them, the leader of the invasion, General Grievous emerged from one of the ships.

Grievous: Hello there witches! Are you ready to die?

Ventress: Everybody stay back, he is mine!

Grievous: Ah, you're alive! I'm glad I could be the one to finally finish you off!

Ventress: You never could have been able to defeat me!

Grievous: Don't make me laugh, I have suffered your irritating presence long enough in the name of the separatist cause, but now, I can put an end to it!

Ventress: Better make this interesting, as I too have waited a long time to kill you!

Grievous: Haha, pitiful witch! Droids, terminate the rest, I'll kill this one personally!

Grievous ignites his lightsabers as his droids aim at you. Ventress charges at him, before any of them could open fire, but the first contact of lightsabers starts the next wave of the battle against far better designed enemies.

Ranvi: Let me help you Ventress!

Ventress: No, this is a personal matter of mine, I can handle him!

You try to hold your own against the superior firepower of the new wave, but soon realise you will be overwhelmed if you don't fall back from the plain.

Lana: Ventress! We can't sustain our position here! We must fall back!

Ventress (while dueling Grievous): Go, I'll meet you once he is dead!

Grievous: Yeees, send your friends away and die alone by my hands! They will follow you shortly, I'll make certain of it!

Ventress (managing to cut off one of his arms): Too much talk, too little action!

Grivous: Aaargh...! Your head will be next!

As they continue their duel, you take up defensive position at the other end of the plain just under the vegetation, where your archers could fire more easily down from above. The droidekas pose a great threat, as their shields absorb the energy arrows the clan members are firing. You take a group of vibrobladed Nightsisters and flank the droidekas, their blades can pass through their shields, taking them down in close quarter combat, while crushing an other bunch with the ****. The droids seem to be coming endlessly, you destroy a hundred and an other thousand lands behind them, all the while your losses are mounting, the Nightsisters and Nightbrothers are falling one by one under the pressure of the droid firepower. Some are using magic to hold their own against the advancing enemy, others like Silri are using brute strength with their weapons to keep the enemy away from the palace, but the situation is getting more and more ****. You can only hope Talzin is proceeding well and Dooku and Sidious are on the edge of ****.

Judging the situation soon to be irreversible, Ranvi contacts Talzin and asks her to use the secret technique now, or the clan will be eradicated. She says the Sith have not much life left in them, reluctantly accepts Ranvi's plea and orders on elderly Nightsister witch to bring back the dead members of the clan. She starts chanting and a green mist spreads around the battlefield, filling all the dead bodies, even penetrating the ground and filling those long dead with life essence. They rise like zombies, not feeling any pain and attack the droids with renewed cohesion. With your army consisting of thousands of undead witches, the droids are held at bay, later even pushed back, as their shots aren't hurting the zombie witches, only by severing their parts could they be stopped.

Seeing this unexpected turn of events and the approaching enemy lines, Grievous, who is still battling Ventress, now fears for his life. He orders his personal bodyguards, the magnaguards to hold Ventress off, while he can escape. They surround her and attack from all directions, as Grievous runs back at his ship. You see Ventress is outnumbered and is in trouble and rush to her aid.

Ventress: Come back, you coward!

Grievous: This is not over yet witch!

Sidious (contacting Grievous in visible pain): General...! Why are the witches still alive...?! Kill them already or they will kill me and Dooku with their magic...!

Grievous: But, my lord...! They are overwhelming our forces here...! We cannot possible defeat them! We must fall back or...!

Sidious (in pain): I don't care... About your excuses...! Go and kill their leader...! Nothing else... Matters at the moment...!

Grievous: I'm not going to die if you are already doomed Lord Sidious! It seems the Separatists will have an unfortunate change of leadership!

Sidious (raging): You little...!

He tries to **** **** Grievous, but he is suffering too hard to actually do so. Grievous laughs at his attempt.

Grievous (laughing): Haha! Good by, Lord Sidious! Haha!

He turns off his communicator and prepares to board his ship and order a full retreat. You arrive to help her by using **** lightning on the magnaguards, easily disabling them all.

Ventress (catching her breath): Thanks... I guess... I too have to learn that!

Lana (pointing at the ship taking off): Maybe later! Is Grievous on that ship?

Ventress: Yes, but we can still catch him!

You both use **** grip on his ship, which as a result, stops in the air. He angrily tries to concentrate all power to the engines, which is too much for you two to manage. When he seems to be slipping out of your grip, Silri gets there and joins you. The three of you could **** his ship back on the ground, preventing his escape. To give you some assistance, HK shoots at the engines, making the ship immobile and ready to be pulled against the ground.

Lana: Yes, we did it!

Silri: Can't you guys do anything without me having to rush to your help?

Ventress: I'll shut you up later, but first, I have a little business with the general!

She runs towards the recently crash landed ship to find him, while you and Silri help the Nightsisters against the droids. He gets out of the cockpit and ignites his lightsabers again. They restartt he duel, but this time Grievous is slowly losing, he lost an other hand and eventually was **** to surrender.

Ventress (pointing her lightsaber at the unguarded body of Grievous): It's over general! You have lost!

Grievous (not moving): Maybe... But only the battle, not the war!

He lifts his hands higher to strike at Ventress, who immediately thrusts her lightsaber through Grievous's chest, killing the man. He slowly collapses and coughs, before he finally passes away. Ventress stares at his dead body a little longer before she joins the final push against the remaining droids. You make short work of them and ultimately rid the planet of every intruder. As every clan member is cheering and celebrating, you and your companions rush to Talzin to see how the Sith are faring. You see them through an orb, how they are suffering and are now unable to move. You have just made it to see their last breath, as both Dooku and Sidious are dying in front of your eyes. When the ritual is over, you can feel the shake in the balance of the ****.

Lana: I... I felt their deaths even here... Unbelievable, just how powerful they were!

Talzin: Powerful yes, but not invincible! Their arrogance caused their downfall! Now then, we have finally had our **** Ventress! You too should be happy Jedi, your archenemy is dead! Your Republic will win the war shortly as the entire Separatist leadership has been whipped out in a single battle!

Lana (thinking): Could it be true? Is it really over...? Is the clone war finally over?!
