My problem is that it's the whole point of the fic - a different approach to bringing balance to the Force, if you will, by negating Darth Bane's reforms. They're definitely not out of the blue, and all doing bidding of their (canon) masters.
It's just that if I have Dooku drawing Qui-Gon to the Dark Side - as already the third Sith - there's no logical reason for them not to spend the ten years between TPM and AOTC not training additional apprentices in order to gather strength. Dooku himself might have been too busy, but he has Qui-Gon to help out. And even if my three are just dark Force-users (the line's a thin one), I have canon precedent in the forms of Ventress and Mara Jade.
Hm. Would it help if I changed the idea from plain "rebirth of the Sith" to "defeating them from the inside and replacing them with a better Dark Jedi Order"? :S
