Stood amongst the rubble of the ruined Manarai Mountains, Orex contemplated. Was there some truth in the Rule of Two? Of course he was no Sith, but he was no stranger to petty rivalry either. The Cabal currently consisted of three individuals, including himself. Would this be an issue? Would training a fourth and final simply exacerbate this? Maybe.
But it was yet to be seen. And Orex needed equality. He was no Lord. He had seen countless dictatorships throughout the Galaxy and they all shared one trait. Ego. A Government dominated by One was a government doomed to fail. He needed the balance. He could not have a simple Democracy as leaving complex decisions up to the People was like giving The Unification problem to a toddler and expecting them to solve it to some degree of success. But making it an absolute dictatorship meant he was the only one making decisions, and he couldn't have that. Of course he was undoubtedly intelligent and his pursuit of knowledge had rewarded him well, but regardless, the power of several minds will always outweigh a single.
Unless its several Gungans.
Orex almost shuddered at the thought, but fortunately his contemplation was broken as he observed the arrival of his new Apprentice, his ancient HWK tearing across the horizon.
