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

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+.
