Dark Empire 6: The Fate of a Galaxy, published by Dark Horse Comics, represents the concluding chapter in the six-part Star Wars: Dark Empire comic book saga. Its release date was October 20, 1992.
Luke is stranded on Byss and journeys with the newly empowered Emperor Palpatine with the goal of seizing his sister Leia. In a parallel storyline, the Jedi Holocron presents Leia with a prophecy from a millennium prior, foretelling her confrontation with the youthful Emperor!
Simultaneously, the Battle of Calamari unfolds above the planet's oceans, and the Mon Calamari Rebels are in anticipation of Luke's arrival to disable the destructive machines. A more significant conflict commences overhead, eclipsing the implications of their terrestrial war.
The fate of their continued existence hinges on the information held within a courageous, small droid.
The Fate of a Galaxy's narrative was reworked into the Dark Empire (audio) radio play. This production incorporated music from John Williams' original film scores and showcased a voice acting ensemble, including Billy Dee Williams returning to voice Lando Calrissian.
