Last year, we were given the opportunity to interview none other than the former Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and current Dark Lord Of The Sith Darth Vader; Hayden Christensen himself.

Peridea Is The Ancient Homeworld Of The Dathomiri

According to Morgan Elsbeth, Peridea was the ancient homeworld of her people (and Darth Maul’s people), the Dathomiri who consisted of the Nightsisters and the Nightbrothers.

Baylan Skoll also mentions that it’s where the Purrgil goes to die.

Grand Admiral Thrawn Arrives

Finally, six episodes in and we finally have the live-action debut of Grand Admiral Thrawn, with Lars Mikkelsen reprising his voiced role from Star Wars Rebels.

Accompanying him are a variant of stormtroopers called the Night Troopers, who are under the command of a captain named Enoch.

The Live-Action Debut Of Ezra Bridger

Sabine Wren finds Ezra Bridger on Peridea amongst a group of Noti. This is the live-action debut of Ezra Bridger, who is portrayed by actor Eman Esfandi. We last saw Ezra Bridger bringing Grand Admiral Thrawn to this other galaxy with the Purrgil in the final episode of Star Wars Rebels.

With only two episodes left in this season of Ahsoka, we’re not far away from what seems like it will be an epic climax.

Until then, excelsior!
