It's actually a reference to the PSX Fighting game, Star Wars: Masters of Teräs Käsi

[@neraphruneblade7903]

Yes, and the Star Wars franchise really loves taking names from real-world languages across the globe. There's a story of a small African nation that went NUTS during a screening of one of the movies because the aliens were speaking their language. They were absolutely jazzed that *their* language was in a main-stream movie. Pretty sure Teras Kasi was always meant to mean "Steel Hand" from Finnish. That fits the MO of Lucasfilm.

I can see how before the internet made information easily accessible at the global level, how it would be a great idea to borrow words from languages not common in whatever society you're in (i.e, American writer borrowing words from Scandinavian or African languages, etc..). It's not a bad idea today but in the past it was an even better one.

[@valthenvega2434]

Frankly confused of what master was she talking about. Darth Maul mentioned to Ahsoka that Anakin was groomed for years to become the emperor’s next apprentice, yet he doesn’t seem to know on Malachor who the one called Vader is. All this to substantiate the fact that I imagined Qui’ra avoided bursting in laughter during her training every time her master got triggered by remembering “K e n o b e h !!”

I was wondering what silly Method they were going to use to stop Darth Vader from Killing Emily Clarke's Star Wars Character. In the majority of these comic's Vader rarely if ever lets anyone who attacks him live. Emily Clarke is a popular Actress and I am sure Disney wants to use her in another Star Wars Movie/Show and she has said she wanted to play this character again. So there was no way they were going to let her die by Vader. At least this was better than what they did with Dr. Caska Astka or whatever her name is.
