I definitely am liking the idea of a threat so large, that even Sith and Jedi have to work side by side in order to make it out alive. Perhaps an extra galactic force even bigger, even meaner, even scarier, than anything the galaxy has ever seen... or perhaps, in a long distance past once forgotten, that upon their leave of absence brought us to today.
Maybe it's time to explain the Celestials (or maybe we could invent something even older). What if, they came back? With technology so far beyond us, it threatens the very aspect of civilization we have cherished. Backstabbing is killing yourself, trying to do anything alone is suicide.
Every faction, every person, must find their place to convince the invaders that we are inhabited, alive, and intelligent. Because lets face it for a moment, if there was an Eons Old civilization credited as the origin of most if not all life and astral anomalies in the galaxy, there is a high chance they might not even recognize that we are alive, and possess civilization. Thus, when they kill us, they kills us not knowing it. So we need to find a way to broadcast ourselves as quickly as possible to the not intentionally belligerent force that we are occupied. So then, perhaps, they might consider making a reservation for us, as America did with the Natives.
Maybe it's too big, but I like the idea of an enemy that doesn't know its killing us, and it forces literally everyone to fight side by side to stop it.
