A contamination i.e. a failed portmanteau. Comes from "pre"+"sequel" of which the latter in turn comes from Latin, "sequela"; "what follows". Therefore it is a non-word Γ la new/memespeak, as "quel" does not mean anything in any known language and thus "pre"+"quel" means nothing either.

The senate: Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend.

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
