Why Palpatine HATED the Most Powerful Sith In all of Star Wars

Darth cidus the culmination of the rule of two has many praise for many of the ancient Dark Masters but the one Sith Lord that is the most powerful the closest to Darth Cy is's own power and what many believe eclipses Cy is's own power in viette Palpatine mysteriously has very little to say about the dark lord one who came the closest to dominating the entire galaxy so why was this why did Palpatine not respect viette or valkorian and how was it that potentially the most powerful Sith to have ever lived was held in contempt by Palpatine greetings again acolytes and welcome back to the archives in all of Galactic history there have only really ever been two Sith Emperors Darth cidus and valkorian valkorian who is also known as the emperor viette these two beings of the dark side happen to be among the most influential people in all of Galactic history if not the most influential people in their respective eras their similarities are vast with both of them nearly destroying the Jedi and Rising above all other Sith Lords in terms of power but more important Supremacy yet there is a certain disconnect between both of them in many of Palpatine's studies he would frequently make comments about the dark Lords of times that had passed he enlightens Us by sharing his thoughts on their Works power and their philosophies though despite all of the many similarities cyia shares with valkorian one would be hardpressed to find anything the emperor of the modern day had to say about this powerful predecessor cyas is noticeably Qui regarding anything on valkorian which wouldn't be that distinguishable of a problem if cities didn't have plenty to say about Malgus instead Palpatine intentionally avoids the topic of voran stemming from a point that cidus never actually respected valkorian and More Than This likely thought that he was detrimental to the path of the Sith and in the end leads us to belief that Palpatine in secret despised the original Sith Emperor the dark lord in the Galaxy he was most like the man who attained near Total Domination immortality and nearly ultimate power so let's Analyze This there are several things that cyas needed to accomplish in his life as a Sith and to establish an immortal Empire that he would be the permanent head of he wanted to subjugate the Galaxy and Rule as long as possible this was the innate desire for nearly every Sith Lord as they all often believed that they had a cosmic right to rule by virtue of using the force in order to achieve this goal Palpatine constantly experimented with strange powers and techniques as well as made plenty use of super weapons in the vast resources of his Empire cyas saw himself above everybody not just because he was the most powerful being in the Galaxy but also because he believed he was the most intelligent of course his ego isn't entirely unfounded as Palpatine had manipulated Galactic events for decades in order to achieve total Galactic Domin yet but we switch now over to valkorian somebody who was shockingly similar everything that we just now stated about cyas also applies to him except on a colossal scale viia 2 had manipulated Galactic events but it was not over the course of decades but a time that exceeded over a thousand years he was obsessed with immortality and he actually achieved this to some degree though Palpatine never achieved immortality in his own right he was successful in Galactic domination whereas voran was not the two of these sither connected in a very important way in the way of immortality Coran was successful and in the way of Galactic Dominion Palpatine was successful completing a coin that made up the culmination of the Sith from this you would think that Darth cidus would be a fanatic of voran constantly studying his life and trying to attain his Secrets but this never happened through researching both of their personalities and weaknesses we have ascertained a few important differences in their characteristics revealing why cyas had an avoidance of visit's knowledge the most important thing is how each of these great Lords viewed and perceived the dark side of the force cyas had a very solid grasp on the role that the force played in the galaxy and how the dark side was to be wielded the Jedi believed the force was ever present and was constantly flowing as an energy source through all life and death in the Galaxy but the Sith beli something similar with a key difference they refuse to simply be used by the force or as Darth pleus would put it subject themselves to the Force's enigmatic Wills the Sith seek domination over the force and to assert their command over it they believe the power of the force belongs to them yet the nature of the dark side demands the Sith give something back in return while the light only demands surrender the dark demands much more the relationship between a Sith and the dark side is a destructive symbiosis to which both parties agree upon again referencing pagus he said that the dark side was a poison a disease that no true Sith would ever wish to be cured of cidus believed this religiously he believed religiously in in the power of the dark side and those who wielded it and their Supremacy he never minded the cost of it when it came to the form of his body his health and his appearance he knew that it would take a pound of flesh but he was willing to give it up freely he surrendered to the truth that was the dark side when Darth Viet refused to valkorian and viat believed that the Sith belonged to him and him alone in the Dark Lord's final moments when he is facing down the spirit of everyone he ever wronged in cel's mind landscape valkorian states that he believes that the force was his because of how much power he gained through it cyas was self-aware enough to openly state that all who gain power are afraid to lose that power he himself experienced that fear firsthand yet cyest acknowledged that it is a truth of the Sith that they fear to lose the power and that they must surrender to it valkorian and viate by contrast believed that he was so far above the Mortal emotions that even the force itself the PO of life and death the piercing ways of fear were too weak to touch him to be viate was to take the arrogance of cyas and multiply it a thousandfold cyas found this arrogance to be foolhardy regardless of whatever power viot achieved cyas worshiped the dark side Viet worshiped himself but the differences go further how the two Emperors viewed the Sith famously vot left the Sith order after becoming dissatisfied with their philosophy Fe he believed that he had grown beyond the Sith while cidus is on record as saying that the Sith should always think on a Monumental scale vot lost himself to Madness saying that he was above the Sith entirely Darth cidus was zealous for the way of the Sith and galactically cidus was perhaps the perfect Sith he embodies everything it means to be a Sith Lord the rule of two was a means to an end Insidious used what he wanted of it and discarded the rest for the good of the Sith as a whole cidus is philosophical ideal aligns so strongly with the Sith that he just flat out hates anyone who does not see things his way to cidus the Sith is the end all be all the path to Rising above all of the common and to destroy or build the Galaxy as he sees fit to believe that you could grow beyond the Sith was Madness to cyas cyas called the Huber of viate to be dubious at this point and this is why he draws his attention towards the general of viate in Darth Malgus instead Malgus was disillusioned with the Sith Empire because they had lost the ways of what it meant to be a Sith the dark Council always wanted to play politics undermining everything that Malgus was trying to accomplish everything that he sacrificed to become The Greatest Warrior possible they abandoned the goals of the Sith after handing back corusant after Malgus sacked it taking the home of the Jedi for his own it was this moment where Malgus turned away from the Empire but never the Sith we are of the belief that had cyas been around during this era he most most certainly would have sided with Malgus and a Schism would have resulted but yet there is another reason for sidious's distaste for viate and we believe it is the strongest of all when analyzing the endgame of cidus and Viet their very goals we come to an impass a Divergence of philosophy completely there is one key line that valkorian delivers he says that he seeks to destroy and rebuild the Galaxy but that in doing though he desires Universal peace this goes against the first line of the Sith code that peace is a lie cyas would oppose this Outlook even if in reveng of the Sith he told Anakin that if the Sith ruled that they would have peace this was a manipulation do not be deceived my friends the kind of peace that valkorian desired was not the peace that anyone would have wanted valkorian sought the peace that lied in emptiness the Dead Silence of nothing valkorian wanted ultimate power and to become a god God within the force so that he could literally Ren the universe apart Darth cidus is pure evil valkorian was purely insane his mind had grown so mad and so Twisted that he desired to eliminate life to drain existence of all matter to create a universe of nothing in 2017 in the Lord Vader comic series we find cidus reprimanding Vader for constantly killing high-ranking Imperial officers to end this cyas has a famous quote saying I do not wish to rule over a galaxy of the Dead Emperors are nothing without people to subjugate and Rule and the Empire is nothing without this either cidus despised valkorian because of his views on the universe itself it's probable that Palpatine does not delve into valkorian Secrets because he wants nothing of viat Madness the nature of valkorian immortality is a vile existence the emperor had to sacrifice everything it meant to be alive life he could no longer feel taste or smell he no longer had emotions except for craving power and the fear of losing it he was in constant excruciating pain with no way to numb his senses and in order to achieve this immortality he did something horrific by consuming the force energy of 8,000 Sith Lords that trusted him with the entirety of his home planet destroyed as a result of this he desecrated his home World in fact he left it with no life no wind no color no temperature and no force it was a giant void with nothing inside of it if any Force sensitive were to stand on the Wasteland that was nathema for too long they would lose their mind to the same Insanity that viate lost his any Sith who saw nathema and experienced the aftermath of viet's handiwork all said that it was an Abomination a passage from the Revan novel explains the thoughts of Lord Scourge when he saw Natha the home home world of viate scourge was well acquainted with death he had no trouble understanding massacres and even Mass Slaughter death and destruction Unleashed powerful emotions like fear suffering and hatred they fueled the power of the dark side but what happened on nathema was different and it Disturbed him to a deep and a profound way everything on nathema had simply been snuffed out extinguished so completely that it ceased to have any meaning or purpose it was a vacuum of existence a blight on the natural order destroying your enemies even destroying a planet was understandable but this wasn't simple destruction it was Annihilation obliteration this powerful passage explains exactly why cidus was against valkorian and why of all the Sith he thought he was a Madman not worth studying because of how far he disrespected the dark side itself viot created such a disturbance that it caused the Sith to Rally alongside the Jedi to destroy their former Emperor and thus my friends this is why Darth cidus never respect it and actually looked down upon valkorian viate tenra but thank you my friends for joining us in today's holocron we definitely want to know your thoughts on this wild topic and what are your thoughts on cyas is view on viette were you shocked to see how many differences they had and how the two most powerful Sith Emperors turned out to be two wildly different beasts thank you so much for watching the channel today my friends and May the force be with you
