We knew from the finale of “Star Wars Rebels” that Ezra Bridger, in his heroic sacrifice to liberate Lothal from the Empire, used house whales generally known as Purrgil to teleport himself and Thrawn away from Lothal and into… nicely, we do not know. The logical selection was someplace within the Unknown Areas, a largely unexplored space of the “Star Wars” galaxy that nonetheless has been used for essential locations for the franchise. For instance, it’s right here that Thrawn’s species originates, it’s right here that Luke hid after Kylo Ren destroyed his temple, it’s right here that in some way, Palpatine returned, and it is usually right here that the enigmatic Rakatan Empire originated. 

In different phrases, the Unknown Areas are a major place for thriller and peculiar stuff. However nonetheless, that is shut sufficient that it feels bizarre Ezra and Thrawn would not have managed to get out of it and journey nearer to their allies within the final decade or so. For this reason the map that Ahsoka finds revealing a pathway to a different galaxy fully is such an thrilling prospect. This growth is a bit out of left area, nevertheless it presents limitless potentialities that we have by no means seen earlier than within the franchise, notably in the case of galactic threats.

It’s fairly unlikely Ezra and Thrawn have simply been dwelling a “Solid Away” life stranded alone in one other galaxy. As a substitute, it’s more likely the 2 have spent the previous decade in both a “Misplaced” state of affairs, surviving limitless horrors whereas exploring some historic and decayed civilization, or an isekai situation, the place the 2 encountered some vastly completely different civilization and have become a part of them. In any case, it’s more likely to finish with not solely Thrawn and Ezra returning, however one thing else from that galaxy making its method to the prime “Star Wars” galaxy, really making it a conflict of the galaxies.
