During the early years of the New Republic, Imperial remnants are still rife throughout the galaxy. Sinister agents remain at work, and the prospect of another war is not so far off. The looming spectre of Grand Admiral Thrawn threatens to topple the fledgling Republic, and he is not without allies. Night Sister Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto) and her duo of Force-wielding mercenaries — former Jedi Knight Baylan Skoll (the late Ray Stevenson) and his apprentice Shin Hati (Ivanna Sakhno) — are bent on bringing him back from wherever he is, following Ezra Bridger’s (Eman Esfandi) sacrifice in Rebels.
Ezra used his connection with the purrgil, giant whalelike creatures that live in hyperspace, to drag Thrawn’s flagship into hyperspace, stranding the both of them in regions unknown. Now, Morgan looks to bring him back, a rallying force for any Imperial holdouts.
Ahsoka plays out like a resounding tribute to Rebels, and its titular hero also gets plenty of lightsaber action, handily dispatching assassin droids and going toe-to-toe with a mysterious masked assailant who goes by the name Marrok and dons armour reminiscent of a mediaeval knight.
Together with apprentice Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo), Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) is searching for a map that holds the answer to Thrawn’s last known location. While the former Jedi is motivated above all by a desire to stop another war, Sabine is driven more by the prospect of finding Ezra.
