Everyone knows the Galaxy was marred by war. Hardly a planet was left unscathed. Hardly a family did not lose somebody. These are common experiences, from Halcandra to Primaea; from Ripple Star to Floralia. Even in Dreamland's idyllic haven, everyone knows the war changed the Galaxy forever.
    
    What is less known is what the war was like for those who fought it. Star World sits empty, now, but once she held so many souls, each with their own story, each with their own triumphs and traumas. And even during those cursed days, time still progressed. Hearts fell in love. Friendships were forged and broken. Seasons and holidays came and went. Even as the world ended, life carried on. And every soul found their own path through the war--most ending in death, true, but often changing the course of history first. And frequently, those who seemed least important, wound up making the most difference.
    
    We know the soldiers who led the efforts of the starborn Army. Head General Arthur, Lieutenant Generals Falspar and Meta Knight and the others; we know all of them. We know about their bravery, their skill, their honor. What little we know of the war's ordeals, we know from the legends about them.
    
    But legends are often incomplete at best and inaccurate at worst.
    
    We know Lieutenant General Meta Knight, Hero of Dreamland. But Meta Knight wasn't always the experienced, time-tested soldier that he is today. Even he started out at the bottom of the ranks. Even he tasted what war was like for the most expendable of the Army's numbers.
    
    And, despite his best efforts...
    
    Even Meta Knight did not fight alone.

Everyone knows the Galaxy was marred by war. Hardly a planet was left unscathed. Hardly a family did not lose somebody. These are common experiences, from Halcandra to Primaea; from Ripple Star to Floralia. Even in Dreamland's idyllic haven, everyone knows the war changed the Galaxy forever.

What is less known is what the war was like for those who fought it. Star World sits empty, now, but once she held so many souls, each with their own story, each with their own triumphs and traumas. And even during those cursed days, time still progressed. Hearts fell in love. Friendships were forged and broken. Seasons and holidays came and went. Even as the world ended, life carried on. And every soul found their own path through the war--most ending in death, true, but often changing the course of history first. And frequently, those who seemed least important, wound up making the most difference.

We know the soldiers who led the efforts of the starborn Army. Head General Arthur, Lieutenant Generals Falspar and Meta Knight and the others; we know all of them. We know about their bravery, their skill, their honor. What little we know of the war's ordeals, we know from the legends about them.

But legends are often incomplete at best and inaccurate at worst.

We know Lieutenant General Meta Knight, Hero of Dreamland. But Meta Knight wasn't always the experienced, time-tested soldier that he is today. Even he started out at the bottom of the ranks. Even he tasted what war was like for the most expendable of the Army's numbers.

And, despite his best efforts...

Even Meta Knight did not fight alone.
