Synopsis: The Heartless

When the Sith is the least of your problems…

Before the Force, before the Ways of the Whills, there was Kingdom Hearts. It is the source, the power behind the power, the key to connecting the worlds and all hearts.

It is also a myth, lost in the shadows of the ages.

There are still those who seek the Door to the Darkness, who wield the keyblades, who believe in Kingdom Hearts. Considered heretics by the Jedi, misunderstood by the Republic, they are the `Ohana, guided by an Oracle, and led by a good King, a successor to the legendary King of old.

But they are not the only seekers of the Door to the Darkness. The successor to she who called upon the powers of life and death to smite her enemies leads the Order of Shinigami in secret, and seeks to destroy the `Ohana and their Oracle.

The Republic is in turmoil. The assassination of several prominent leaders and a leading member of the Jedi council have caused peace talks to collapse and the Separatists to begin to make their move, backing the Trade Federation in their blockade of Naboo, and putting into motion a series of events which will change the galaxy forever.

The Heartless is a crossover fanfiction which re-tells the story of Anakin Skywalker from a whole new perspective, crossing the Star Wars and Kingdom Hearts mythoi along with characters and elements from a number of fandoms including Gundam, Saiyuki, Full Metal Alchemist, Death Note, Code Geass, the Clamp-verse, and others.
