Union of the Houses

''"Together, nothing will stop us. Your armies, our bloodline... We will never be silenced again." - Harbinger during the Union''

The Union of the Houses, was a hidden ceremony on the planet Tatooine in the Dune Sea. Among the skeletal remains of a Krayt Dragon in secret during The 2nd Aeon Schism, Darth Harbinger assembled his apprentice: Darth Nightbane, and two closest advisor's Darth Cruxx and Darth Jerrico to unite the two Sith House's of House Shadows and House Calderon. The joining would create the first Dominion, and forge a new future for the Sith as they separated from the Aeons.

The Calderon were human, with a Sith genealogy, and a long proud history of military service. It was through them, that the first Armies of the Empire would fold under Dominion control. Darth Cruxx was a natural leader, while Darth Jerrico had connections in the underground and within Imperial Intelligence.

The Shadows were proud Purebloods of heritage and ability, commanding a formidable enclave of traditionalist Sith. It was this reason that the Calderon agreed to bend the knee, allowing the Shadows to take head of the newly formed powerbase, but allow the Calderon a permanent seat on the council, and ability to command the vast armies directly.

It was this deal, which allowed the Dominion to grow and flourish for years to come.
