Unknown Regions

Let's get over that.

How are we going to move forwards here with Star Wars? Is there going to be a Yuuzhan Vong invasion? Is there going to be some new antagonist that is something further in the Unknown Regions, something that we haven't seen before, maybe some deity of some sort, like a mortis god? Could it be the father, the mother, the son? Really, they can go in any direction here, and I hope whatever they do, they do take their time with this new character that they are going to be introducing, and they make us fall in love with this character.

they are going to be bringing the force ghosts back they're going to be bringing obi-wan anakin skywalker luke skywalker yoda that has been rumored already quite a bit and so i think that's also a way that they're going to try and get us to fall in love with this new character because they realized that where they went wrong with sequel characters was there wasn't enough of the passing of the baton respectively to the OGs, to the characters that we fell in love with.

It was kind of like, move them aside, they suck now, they're old, they're defeated, they're some totally other entity, and let's make way for the new characters that really don't have much character development whatsoever, or really any struggles.

And the Alliance is running out of options.

So in what is essentially a massive last ditch gamble, a Jedi expedition led by Luke Skywalker has ventured deep into the unknown regions.

And just for context, the unknown regions is this vast, totally unmapped and incredibly dangerous sector of space.

And they aren't looking for like a secret weapon or a hidden fleet.

No, they are looking for a myth, a legend.

Now, to fully grasp the absolute stomach-dropping panic this would cause for characters like Han and Leia Solo, we need to pause and establish the horrifying context of the Searook.

Yes, this is crucial.

The Searook are a species of large, technologically advanced reptilian aliens from the Unknown Regions.

under guidance from Thrawn, have been maintaining a far-flung territory within the

Unknown Regions filled with military bases.

Thrawn set this up because of the dangers to both the Chiss and the Empire lurking in the further reaches of space.

This organization is the Empire of the

The Outer Rim territories.

The Unknown Regions.

Places where the Republic's reach is weak and the Empire's shadow hasn't fallen.

Places where people need help but have no one to turn to.
