Ahsoka Episode 4, called “Fallen Jedi,” left us all stunned with its unexpected ending. Not only did it give us a big surprise, but it also treated us to a special appearance by one of the most cherished Star Wars characters.
Many folks thought that Episode 4 of Ahsoka would be a turning point in the series, but no one could have foreseen the incredible twist that unfolded. Let’s dive into what happened in the conclusion of Ahsoka Episode 4 and what it might mean for the future.
What Happened to Ahsoka Tano?
In this episode, Ahsoka and Sabine Wren faced off against the First Order, even though they were outnumbered. They managed to defeat their enemies, but not without facing an ambush in the forest and losing power to their ship.
Ahsoka took the lead in retrieving an important map and decided to destroy it if necessary. Sabine Wren joined her in battling Shin Hati and Baylan Skoll. Ahsoka initially succeeded in preventing the First Order from obtaining Grand Admiral Thrawn’s coordinates, but Baylan managed to corner her on a cliff.
Then, in a moment of intense emotion, Ahsoka’s lightsaber was struck by Baylon, causing her to plummet off the cliff. The episode didn’t reveal exactly where she landed, but before the credits rolled, we saw that she had ended up in a mysterious realm.
Now, some might jump to the conclusion that Ahsoka perished and became a Force ghost, especially after seeing the appearance of Anakin Skywalker. But hold on, because that’s not the case. Ahsoka found herself in a familiar place known as the World Between Worlds.
How Did Ahsoka Get to the World Between Worlds?
The World Between Worlds isn’t a place one can just wander into. It’s a mystical realm within the Force, and entering it requires someone to pull you inside.
In the animated series Star Wars Rebels, Ezra Bridger saved Ahsoka Tano when she battled Darth Vader in the Jedi Temple by pulling her into the World Between Worlds. It’s possible that something similar happened here. Anakin Skywalker’s Force ghost might have intervened to save Ahsoka from her fall.
It might sound like a stretch, but remember, Jedi Force ghosts can influence the physical world. So, the idea isn’t as far-fetched as it seems. For those who haven’t watched Rebels, this concept could be a bit confusing, but don’t worry, the series will likely delve deeper into it.
How Can Ahsoka Leave the World Between Worlds?
This is a tricky question, even for long-time Star Wars and Rebels fans. Unlike in Rebels season 4, where Ezra had a way to pull Ahsoka out into the real world, the situation here seems more dire.
Ahsoka’s character development has been somewhat limited since her appearance in The Mandalorian. However, with the introduction of Anakin Skywalker, things could change.
The episode played Darth Vader’s theme after showing Anakin, which suggests two possible scenarios. Firstly, Ahsoka may confront her past as Anakin’s Force ghost (Darth Vader), leading to visions of the Clone Wars.
Secondly, Anakin, her Jedi master, might possess a secret Force technique that he learned as a Force ghost. He could teach it to Ahsoka, allowing her to escape the World Between Worlds.
These are just speculations for now, and we hope that Dave Filoni will provide some answers in the upcoming episodes. The World Between Worlds is a mysterious place, and Ahsoka’s journey within it promises to be both exciting and full of surprises.
