Verla: "The force uses people." Kreia: "Ah. So you have finally learned the truth."

[@TehSpessPiret]

Sadly, Disney needs to keep this franchise going for a good 4 or 5 more years or so if they want to recoup all the money they spent buying this franchise, and portraying Kreia's philosophy as potentially valid hurts the brand, so even though Verla is objectively right, she's portrayed as an uptight cynic. If you question the force, you question the jedi. If you question the jedi, you question yourself IRL on why you're wasting money on buying plastic light sabers

[@JesusHasRisen1]

Kreia: I trained two, no, three of the greatest and most powerful Sith lords of all time and almost destroyed the Force itself. Disney: yeahhhhhhhhhh you aren't canon. Kreia: *Apathy is death.*

@@sudanemamimikiki1527 Did George Lucas or Disney intend on portraying the force as evil? No. Has the force, which is a sentient being with its own will, been responsible for every galactic war in the story? Yes. The force turns people into jedi and sith to create "balance". Balance = eternal warfare = eternal bloodshed

[@TehSpessPiret]

@@sudanemamimikiki1527 the dark side of the force is still part of the force. The idea that emotions like rage, passion, and everything else the sith represent are corrupt and unnatural is Jedi propaganda. The idea that eradicating the sith will bring "balance" is Jedi propaganda. Anikan was the chosen one of the force, and do you know how he brought "balance"? By genociding the Jedi. The force doesn't want to get rid of sith. It wants there to be an equal amount of Jedi and Sith in the galaxy who are destined to fight each other endlessly, leading to countless casualties of the nonforce users caught in the crossfire

[@TehSpessPiret]

@@hwatooo9498 thank you for taking the time to read this obscure argument. Refer the last two sentences of my previous comment. According to the lore, the force determines the fates of those who are connected to it. It guides people down the path of sith or jedi or neither, giving everyone the illusion of free will. I'm sure Disney will retcon this so all force wielders have total free will, so that everything can be happy and nice in rainbow land, and my only counterargument is that's less fun for me. I've come to terms with the fact that the darker edgier cosmic horror version of star wars I like is a flakey piece of pseudo canon slowly being smothered out of existence. That's why I've moved on to other things. Maybe Star Wars isn't for me, and that's ok. Maybe Star Wars is for you, and that's also ok. We're all just nerds looking for some entertainment to ease the grind of daily living in the end.

[@axtothemax4356]

So what make sense to me is that in Rebels after the Grand Inquisitor granted Kanan the rank of Knight and Vader ransacked the Lothal temple, Vader somehow caught the Grand Inquisitors force spirit and made him the Empire's slave.

[@OfficialOpinion]

I don't believe that was the Inquisitor's true spirit inside the Lothal Temple. Ahsoka and Ezra each had visions of things that weren't actually there. We see Ahsoka encounter a ghostly appearance of Anakin and Vader. We saw Ezra take on the Grand Inquisitor and watched him kill Kanan. I think the spirit we see in the comic is legitimately him, but that Kanan was knighted by a personification of the Force in a familiar setting, using G.Inquisitor as a familiar face and a "Jedi" of sorts.

[@jaketimberlake9023]

OfficialOpinion agreed, they were as much as a vision as Darth bane was to Yoda , it seems realistic which is the point

[@kamykmagik1387]

For those of you who watched Rebels this is cool that he’s still alive yet engulfed in the Star destroyer flames, now I know why he said there are far worse things than death.

[@reedplaysgames]

Yeah I love how they were able to take such a vague quote that Dave put in and made it make sense, you have to wonder if Dave Filoni has the idea for this to happen, but obviously he can’t show that in a kids show so he left it to a comic book to say if so that is truly epic.

[@sageanimations2463]

it’s still weird right? like the grand inquisitor pulled off a palpatine

[@bzking24]

So I guess this is what the Grand Inquisitor meant by worse than death. He's probably in constant agony since his form is on fire, and you gotta wonder how and big what if, how did Vader capture his spirit? Did he whip out his Poltergust 3000? lol

[@Dunge0n]

@General Grievous Jedi had a literal soul prison, containing at least one totally innocent spirit for (accidentally) learning sensitive Republic data. The sheer bureaucracy somehow makes that more evil than this.

[@Meltorange]

[@yes7079]

[@blap5630]

General Grievous you do know that the old republic isn’t canon anymore right? If the new writers are going to use elements from that era then they need to explain it themselves, not rely on the reader to go through what is basically now fan fiction in order to understand key plot points.

[@purpleemerald5299]

Yoby Yeah, it’s pretty hypocritical to retcon material and then take from it.

[@DarkEinherjar]

In the Xbox version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, there's an achievement you can get for Vader, called "Worst Day-Shift Manager Ever." That achievement is now canon, as Vader put the Grand Inquisitor on permanent unpaid overtime.

Grand inquisitor: Burning on fire all over his body Vader: First time huh?

[@babysinclairfan]

Heres some interesting food for thought. In season 2 of Star Wars Rebels, the Grand Inquisitor's spirit already returned (conjured by yoda). In that episode, the inquisitor had been redeemed and helped by completing Kanan's training and defeating the fifth brother and seventh sister so the rebels could escape. Pablo Hidalgo confirmed that Yoda conjured the spirit. This raises some questions. Dis Vader enslave the inquisitor after Yoda brought him back? Was the inquisitor enslaved prior to season 2 and briefly liberated by yoda? I'm looking forward to learning more about this unique force ghost.

[@braddollahite7589]

We know that Sith can't become force ghosts, but they CAN bind their spirits to objects, Momin's mask, for example. They can also tether themselves to locations of great dark side power, such as they did on Korriban. But the Inquisitor is no Sith, just a Dark Jedi. We don't know what the rules are for them.

I wonder if he will “retire” the yellow saber, like store it somewhere or if he will lose it or it be destroyed. Be cool if it’s just stored somewhere whenever he felt he could build his own.

[@e.l.c.2322]

He needs a blue crystal to add to the yellow. I wonder if he'll find his own piece of colorless kyber or if he'll re-purpose another saber. His RotJ hilt does imitate Obi-Wan's (although I'd prefer he do his own construction). Starting over with his own green crystal(s) feels like it would be a waste of this arc...unless the yellow gets tucked away for some other future force-user. Although I'm one of those who'd be happy to leave the Disney!trilogy its own thing. But it's also worth noting that in RotJ Luke says, "I no longer use yours [Anakin's lightsaber]." So maybe in comic!canon he will eventually reunite with Anakin's lightsaber pre-RotJ and perhaps borrow a crystal. That might be too complicated though considering the Skywalker lightsaber's future....

Damn, the grand inquisetor is victim to some dark sith sorcery.

[@ahsokatanoskywalker2898]

OH, COME ON!!!! HE WAS KILLED BY KANNAN, HE CAN'T BE ALIVE!!!!

[@ikanhiu8906]

he did warn kanan there are worst thing than death, he probably know that dead isn't the end for him

[@infinitesheldon5710]

He's not alive. He appears to be permanently caught in a state of undeath. His body reformed after being struck down by Luke. He's clearly not a fully corporeal being. My speculation is that Vader used the knowledge he gained from Lord Momin to permanently freeze the Grand Inquisitor's soul in the moment of its death (as Momin had intended to do to the population of an entire planet), and then bound that soul to the Jedi outpost on Tempes as a trap for any wayward or wannabe Jedi.

[@blitzenproductions2846]

Defenless people ?? Baa he be swing at sleeping people and still fails

[@doriskl6423]

I do not consider the sequel version of Luke as canon.

[@infinitesheldon5710]

Luke never swung at Ben, though? He ignited his lightsaber on defensive instinct when he sensed that Ben would destroy literally everything he had built and grown to love (which, hey, turned out to be entirely accurate), and even then, he immediately felt shame and regret for even having the instinct to violently defend the life he'd built over the decades. Seriously, can people please stop going on about this and acting like Kylo Ren's version of events is what actually happened?

[@RelaxationRefugium]

May the Force be with all of you!

[@einfachdaniel3659]

Oh no when it started connecting to Sequels...

[@christianyaerger1751]

The Grand Inquisitor looks a lot like the "spirit" illusion of Darth Bane encountered by Yoda during the Clone Wars.

[@mitchellhayward6492]

I was thinking the same thing. It's kind of ironic isn't it? The Grand Inquisitor's "return" here, and his interaction with Vader makes him out to be a literal ghost. Which really confuses things. Because that was the very arc of the Clone Wars that straight up established that because the Sith are not spiritual, they cannot exist after death in a spiritual way. (I know, Inquisitor, not Sith.) The Jedi are only able to because they are spiritual, and can use the Light Side of the Force.

[@DisasterEnby]

@@mitchellhayward6492 that's the thing - Old Republic sith could essentially enslave the spirits of recently-deceased force users, like Vader did with the Grand Inquisitor.

[@imperatorscipioafricanus]

I wanna know how can somebody bring back spirits from the dead, I hope Disney explains it someday

[@CyberController-]

Maybe his spirit is bound to the temple, like how Bane's spirit was bound to his coffin.

[@imperatorscipioafricanus]

@@CyberController- he was nowhere near Tempess when he died, Bane's soul at least has a place he relates to (his coffin of course) But we'll have to wait for the official info

[@lamaahruloma4270]

Dark side necromancy, it has similarities with the use of alchemy or ichor of Nighsisters, but it's the thing of Momin or maybe also Darth Bane. It's like selling soul to other being, making an eternal bond with something or someone. Then the soul can be consumed or used as servitor, famulus. Dark side stuff...

[@jesset2504]

They don’t know either.

[@SolarProbably]

Plot Twist: Luke had still been wet when he was shocked by R2, therefore dying due to electric shock

[@wineinfusedmaden2778]

Indeed that is an inquisitor

[@CyberController-]

Still hyped to see Luke go through his trials.

[@j.t.dennis4900]

Wait, hold up: a dark side force ghost? If dark side force ghosts can be a thing, why didn't they just make Palpatine a ghost in TROS 🤦

[@DarkEinherjar]

This one apparently can only exist as a slave to the living Dark Side user that summoned them. Not really the same as actual Force Ghosts.

[@lordnul1708]

It's like with Lord Momin in the 2017 Vader comics. He's not so much a genuine Force Ghost so much as he is s consciousness bound to an item, or in this case a building.

[@christophersanchez7731]

In legends at least some Sith can preserve their consciousness As spirits Marka Ragnos is a famous example However a Sith Ghost is different from a Force Ghost To be a Force Ghost one must embrace death and preserve their consciousness after becoming one with the Force A Sith Force Ghost is one who resists death and separates from becoming one with the Force, to prevent losing their individuality, not able to find peace being separated from the Force as a whole Even if Palpatine was a ghost he would f be able to do much without a body In legends Palpatine resisted death any way he could, and used younger Clone Bodies of himself. The one thing TROS got right was Palpatine transferring his soul to clones to preserve his life in the physical world and be a threat

[@demnbrown]

5th and dark side of the force users tend to be able to have a way past death but it usually requires them to imbibe themselves into an artifact like moment with his helmet and other sith with old sith swords and armor pieces and even talismans but it's like pretty much creating a cursed item and not so much their actual embodiment if any of this makes sense to you they pretty much require some outside force to manifest as opposed to a Jedi who can literally just manifest as a force ghost especially on planets that are very in tune with the light side of the force

[@lordnul1708]

@@christophersanchez7731 yeah. Other Legends examples would be Naga Sadow and Valkorian/Tenebrae/Darth Vitiate. Both were able to manifest as spirits, but unlike true Force Ghosts they could only interact with the physical world by possessing a body or other such vessel. The 2017 Vader comic also has Lord Momin, who only maintained himself by binding his soul to his helmet, which could be a similar principle to how the Grand Inquisitor was bound to the outpost by Vader.
