Though he ruled the Conclave for but a few short years, his legacy as father figure and protector of orphans forever colored the Conclave's views. While he was killed by the Jedi on Hesperus, his actions saved the Conclave from imminent destruction, and allowed it to grow to become a major Force-sensitive organization unaligned to either side of the Force, which it viewed as a single entity unaffilated with the light or dark side. His teachings would later become the inspiration of the Conclave to destroy the Jedi and the Sith, and "purify" the Force of their teachings.
