Did You Catch This Nod To STAR WARS JEDI: FALLEN ORDER In Last Week's Episode Of AHSOKA?

The penultimate episode of Ahsoka set the stage for last night's epic finale, but did you catch this interesting nod to 2019's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Ahsoka's season finale is now streaming on Disney+ (you can read an in-depth recall here), but fans are still combing through the previous episodes for Easter Eggs and clues about Dave Filoni's future plans. 

One was recently spotted which ties the show to the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order video game. In Ahsoka's sixth episode, we learned that Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ezra Bridger are stranded in another Galaxy on a planet called Peridea; since then, of course, it's been revealed as the true ancestral home of the Witches of Dathomir.

The origin of the Nightsisters is a complicated one it appears Filoni is attempting to make sense of, and we know they have links to Kujet, a Force-sensitive Zeffonian held up as one of the greatest, if not most infamous, of the culture's icons. A Zeffo Sage, the ancient figure was a ruthless authoritarian shrouded in the dark side of the Force.

Kujet established a great palace on the planet Dathomir centuries before the fall of the Galactic Republic, but Ahsoka's penultimate episode appears to confirm he originally hailed from Peridea (or at least visited it).

In "Dreams and Madness," text on a wall chamber spotted behind Thrawn and The Great Mothers states he was a ruler of all and that his reign be everlasting.

How does this tie into Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and the story of Cal Kestis? Well, the 2019 game took players to both Dathomir and Zeffo, while the latter planet featured a mission where players were tasked to retrieve an ancient Zeffonian Astrium needed to unlock a Zeffo Vault which once belonged to Kujet.  

It's an intriguing example of world-building and suggests the Nightsistes will continue to be a significant part of the story Filoni is planning to tell in Ahsoka and beyond. 

Set after the fall of the Empire, Ahsoka follows the former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy. 

In addition to Rosario Dawson in the title role, the series stars Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, David Tennant as Huyang, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Eman Esfandi appearing as Ezra Bridger. 

The entire first season of Ahsoka is now streaming on Disney+.

I love star wars but when I see an article like this with more made up nouns than actual words, it's just unreadable to me.

There was also a familiar "For Dathomir" last night, one of Merrin's Jedi Survivor battle cries.

@clornelas - Dude, my son and I were playing Survivor and the pivotal surprise part left his 7 year old mouth gaping, his eyes wide. He was so shocked!

I really want Merrin to show up on Dathomir, and is killed by her sisters, but before she dies, she sends out a message to Cal Kestis, and he gets that message to Luke Skywalker. Luke sends the Resistance to take out Thrawn in a huge space and troop battle on the big screen. The Mandalorian, Boba Fett, Ahsoka, Cal Kestis are all there. It will be like the Avengers Endgame battle scene, but with Star Wars.

@Timerider - At some point they should really unite all the surviving Jedi. Cal, Ezra, Ahsoka, Sabine, Luke. Those are the teachers of the next generation.

@Timerider - with the Nightsisters being having a larger role now, it would be cool if that links to Merrin and Cal.

And age-wise, I think it's still doable. Guessing Cal will be somewhere between 40 and 50, so Monaghan can still portray that convincingly

@Drace24 - agreed, they should have all of them there, as well as most of the Mandalorians, like Bo-Katan leading them into battle with the Darksaber. I want this huge battle on the big screen. Bring in Boba Fett’s ship, Din Djarin’s N-1 Starfighter, the Ghost, it would be this epic battle, Mandalorians flying around wiping out Grand Admiral Thrawn’s Empire, but with heavy casualties on both sides. Some of our favorites being killed off.
