It's difficult to say what Palp's "original plan" was, since it constantly adapts to changing circumstances. It's been a while since I've read Plagueis, but if memory serves, Palpatine was grooming Dooku to be a potential second apprentice long before Maul died. He saw great use in a Jedi whose dual loyalties to his heritage and open mindedness about the Force would allow him to be corrupted.

The novel was published in Jan. Maul's return was aired in March of the same year. And it was simply a retcon by Dave Filoni after the book was released.

I never was a fan of the Plagueis novel or the idea that Palpatine was his apprentice. For starters, the rule of two pretty much cements the fact that a Sith apprentice cannot have his own apprentice. My understanding of the word “legend” is a tale that speaks of an event that happened many generations ago. So far ago that determining the facts around it are vague, which makes the probability of it happening unproven. Palpatine using the word “legend” when telling Anakin about Plagueis, and the tone to which the story is told, gave me the impression that this was a story told to Palpatine by his master, who obviously learned it from his master, and so on. I know cannon makes me wrong, I don’t need anyone jumping on me about that. However, does my thoughts make any real sense?
