| - Ever since he had joined the Jedi Order, Derek Muir had realized that he had a difficulty in dealing with his anger issues. It was something that made him different from the rest of his Bothan family and it was something that concerned him deeply. He was always easily provoked and he gave in to his anger very easily. Through the Force and meditation, he had brought these occurrences down, but his ability to meditate was never strong. His master had worked with him, but even he had had difficulties in getting through to Derek. When he and his master were separated, Derek headed back to Bothawui to see his family. At this point in time he had passed the four Trials and was a Jedi Knight in everyhting but name. He used his family's money and connections to be able to travel the galaxy and learn from various Force groups around the galaxy, enhancing his knowledge off the Force, all in an attempt to calm his inner rage. His solution lay in his dreams, visions granted to him by an unknown higher power. All of them centered around a blood red crystal, the Crystal of Infinite Rage. He went to Crystal Shard Point and found a relatively powerful Force user there, Crystal Roshia. She was able to interpret his dreams and point him in the right direction when it came to the quest. he went after hte cyrstal, having located it on a planet near Myojin known as Fuega. Unfortunately, it pitted the Jedi Knight up against the likes of Zohmaj Hauc, an extremely powerful Sith Lord who wanted the crystal for his own purposes. The two Force users clashed on the planet in the Fuega System. Derek realized that he could use his rage, but use it for the light. So he did. He opened himself to the Force fully and unleashed hell on Hauc. The Sith Lord however, was a far superior swordsman than Derek. He managed to just beat Muir however. An underhanded trick allowed him to throw Derek far back, and the Sith Lord was able to claim the Infinite Rage for himself. He left, leaving Derek on the planet. The Bothan Jedi Knight went on a hunt, chasing after Hauc, who stayed one step ahead of him. They clashed from time to time, as the Bothan continued to perfect his sword skills against not only Hauc but other Sith and Dark Jedi in Hauc's employ. During this time, he contacted his brother, Erik Muir, and asked for his help. Together the two brothers would be able to bring down the Sith Lord. They were supposed to meet at this one abandoned system. Erik arrived, and waited, but neither Hauc or his brother came. During this time, he felt a disturbance in the Force, centered around one person, though he didn't know that person's name. He just knew that he had to go to Arkania. Who was he to question the Force? Erik left the system. Less than an hour later, Hauc jumped in system followed by Derek. There Derek inflicted a serious loss on Hauc, though he was unable to kill the Sith Lord. Hauc escaped yet again, this time on a shuttle bound for Ossus. As the Sith Lord's ship was exploding all around him, Derek got back in his transport and gave chase, the final chase of his life. He didn't know that ever since Fuega, the Sith Lord had been baiting him, wanting him to come after him so that he could kill him. Every time, it appeared that Hauc was just barely getting away, but in reality the Sith was just toying with him.
