How Was the Force First Discovered?

What's the Real Story of Darth Plagueis?
How Did The Prophecy of the Chosen One Originate?
In both canon legends it was thought to have been discovered thousands of years before the prequel trilogy (although it has existed since the beginning of reality) and it is believed to have either originated from Mortis or The wellspring of life. From my understanding, Mortis represents the conduit of the living force while The wellspring of life represents the cosmic force. There was also Abeloths planet although, I don’t think it was an originating planet.
In both legends and canon; the homeworld, name and just about everything regarding Yoda’s species is a mystery. This includes the origination and extinction of his species. Though there is no in-universe explanation for the lack of information on Yoda’s species, the out-of universe explanation is that George Lucas intentionally did this to add a sense of mysterious ness to Yoda’s character. Disney has introduced Grogu, so it’s possible that the species will see some exploration.
The story Palpatine tells Anakin is pretty much the exact truth. We do know a bit more about Plagueis in legends though. He was the son of a aristocratic family who was given to Darth Tenebrous, a Banite Sith Lord descended from the rule of two 5 years after birth (Tenebrous knew of
his existence). Tenebrous and Plagueis worked together to initialize the destruction of the Jedi that Palpatine would later fulfill and somewhere along the line, Tenebrous pitted Darth Venamis and Darth Plagueis against each other to see which one was more worthy... Plagueis won. Eventually Plagueis murdered Tenebrous by crushing him with a large Boulder but Tenebrous planted his consciousness in Plagueis intending to take over his body one day (this fails, and you’ll understand why later). Plagueis uses his aristocratic image and birth name to form a fake alias and under this guise, continues to clouds the Jedi order while manipulating their affairs. He also convinced Sifo Dyas to create the clone army of which, he also ends up altering. He eventually comes to meet Palpatine, the son of a noble family in Naboo. He senses the conflict, hate and strength that Palpatine wields and eventually begins to befriend him much like how Sidious befriended Anakin. Over time he begins to twist the already tense relationship Palpatine has with his family to the point where he gets Palpatine to kill them and take
his family’s place. From then on, he dubs him “Darth Sidious.” Sidious continues manipulating affairs while Plagueis studies and learns about midichlorian manipulation. On one particular night in between the phantom menace and aotc Palpatine gets Plagueis incredibly drunk and Palpatine uses this as an advantage to ascend him by killing
him while vulnerable. Plagueis tries to resist but he ultimately can’t defend himself, so he ends up dying alongside Tenebrous. Anakin’s birth is actually the result of one of Plagueis failed experiments combined with the will of the force intervening to turn his experiment into the chosen one. In canon none of this history is true apart from the story Sidious tells Anakin and some of the basic things like his species etc. However, he actually tried to form a force dyad with Palpatine and this ended up failing. It is also his teachings that Palpatine used to survive his death in ep 6.
Not bad eh?
