The Ahsoka finale was a blast, but it's fair to say most Star Wars fans walked away at least a little frustrated. With a movie and possible second season on the horizon, it's clear this was meant as the opening chapter of a much bigger story.
Even knowing there's more on the horizon, it's hard not to wonder what Dave Filoni has planned and why he chose to leave us hanging. These unanswered questions have been bugging us since the credits rolled on Tuesday night and we're now attempting to figure out where we're heading next.
From Grand Admiral Thrawn's master plan to Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati's future (not to mention the shocking new status quos for Ahsoka's heroes), the dangling plot threads in "The Jedi, the Witch, And The Warlord" need to be addressed!
That's what we're doing here, so click the "Next" button below to check out our burning Ahsoka questions.
7. What Is Thrawn Taking To Dathomir?
We know Thrawn needed a few days to empty the Nightsisters' temple on Peridea and the sheer number of coffin-like objects the Grand Admiral has in his possession is finally revealed in the finale.
He and The Great Mothers are heading to Dathomir, a planet almost all the Nightsisters were killed on when Count Dooku and General Grievous attacked them during The Clone Wars. Could these be dead Nightsisters who will be resurrected when they return home? If so, will they now answer to Thrawn as his army of supernatural warriors?
Another possibility is that these are Stormtroopers. If so, then why haven't they been restored before now? No, Dathomir seems key here and Thrawn seems confident these objects are what will restore the Empire to its former glory.
6. Are Ahsoka And Sabine Trapped On Peridea For Good?
This isn't really being discussed as much as it probably should be, but Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren actually failed their mission in this series. Grand Admiral Thrawn has returned to their Galaxy and, with that, war is now inevitable.
They seem pretty pleased to have sent Ezra Bridger home, of course, and he'll definitely be a key player in making the New Republic aware of the threat which looms and in stopping his old foe. However, with no way home, are Ahsoka and Sabine permanently trapped?
Probably not. The New Republic could set out to steal the Eye of Sion and if the Purrgil return to Peridea, then Ahsoka can communicate with them again. In other words, this is a hole Dave Filoni can easily write his way out of.
5. What's Next For Shin Hati?
Shin Hati has been a big part of Ahsoka from the start but there's still an awful lot we don't know about the character. While we're sure her past will be fleshed out somewhere down the line, for now, we're far more interested in the Dark Jedi's future.
In the penultimate episode, Baylan Skoll gave his Padawan permission to go and join Thrawn's new Empire. That seems to be what she wanted, but it appears Shin failed to make it to the Eye of Sion in time and is left behind. Now, she's taken charge of Peridea's native bandits.
Ahsoka has offered to help her and there's a chance the character will eventually put her evildoing ways behind her. For now, though, we'd bet on Shin causing all sorts of problems for the two stranded Jedi.
4. What's Calling To Baylan On Peridea?
This is perhaps the biggest question of all really, isn't it? Baylan has suggested he only helped Morgan Elsbeth because there was something on Peridea which could grant him unlimited power, though that's still all we know for sure.
There is a force on the planet it seems The Great Mothers wanted to get away from and aside from showing us statues of The Ones/Mortis Gods, all we see is a beacon in the distance. So, what's calling to this former Jedi? It's clearly something to do with those ancient Force-users and we believe it's The Mother, Abeloth.
You can read more about her history here but this fourth God-like being may end up being the big bad of Filoni's planned Star Wars movie. If so, she's likely to be a bigger threat to the Galaxy than even Emperor Palpatine...where does this leave Thrawn, though?
