Up until the event of the firstchronologicalStar Warsmovie , the Jedi consider the Sith were extinct , whichThe Acolyteneeds to preserve so as to not contradict canon .

disregardless , Qimir indirectly dubbed himself a Sith afterThe Acolyteepisode 5 ’s Jedi massacre . This caused many to interview how their survival , existence , and most significantly , privateness would be save for another 100 long time before Palpatine ’s plan is put into place . Interestingly , the hints raised by Qimir by the fourth dimension ofThe Acolyteepisode 6 ’s endingmay have provided the basis of a theory that explain how the Sith have persist hidden , and how they proceed to do so for another hundred while undermine the visible light of the Jedi .

Qimir Was Once A Part Of The Jedi Order

Qimir Used To Fight For The Light

InThe Acolyteepisode 6 , the most challenging story fence in Osha and Qimir . The duo was shown on an unknown , faraway satellite as Qimir attempted to sway Osha about how the Jedi may pervert the Force as much as the Sith . This allow for gripping deconstructions ofStar Warsnorms , while also allowing more about Qimir to be disclose . Although much of his case is still cover in secret and darkness , little point about Qimir , ironically , come to light thanks to his fundamental interaction with Osha inThe Acolyteepisode 6 .

Onereveal about Qimir inThe Acolyteepisode 6is that he used to be part of the Jedi Order . When Osha need why he speaks like the Jedi , Qimir states that he once was part of the Order"a retentive fourth dimension ago . “Osha retorts that she has never heard of him , with Qimir then hinting that he may be much onetime than he seems . irrespective of his age , Qimir ’s past as a Jedi is certainly interesting .

Qimir’s Injuries May Have More Importance Than First Thought

One of the more prominent visualEaster egg inThe Acolyteepisode 6is the giant scar running up Qimir ’s back . The cicatrice is visible in two different shot , with Osha necessitate where it add up from in the latter . Qimir asks Osha how she think he set out it , to which she replies it looks as if someone stabbed him in the back . Qimir confirms that it was someone who threw him off before Osha queries whether it was his former Jedi Master who afford him the wound . Interestingly , Qimir does not confirm or traverse this .

Herein lie where the hypothesis about Qimir begins forming . Given that Qimir does not unlimited state it was a Jedi Master who stabbed him , it could well have been his Sith Master . It is obvious that Qimir has had training in the obscure side of the Force , and the Sith are notably much more ruthless in their education methods than the Jedi . It would make much more signified for a Sith Master to have give Qimir his scrape or even a covert Sith blot out among the JediOrder ’s ranks …

The Sith May Be Hiding In The Jedi Order Itself

The Sith Hiding Among The Jedi Would Make A Lot Of Sense

The hypothesis in question claims that the Sith hid their presence by acting as Jedi . It is clear from the prequel trilogy , and even Sol ’s interactions with Qimir inThe Acolyte , that it can be incredibly difficult for Jedi to outright sense a Sith in their presence . The Sith brings the dingy side to the prow , which often dapple the judgment of those inclined to the light . As such , the Sith could have survived for thousands of years by hiding in plain mickle and masquerade as Jedi .

At the prison term ofThe Acolyte , the Sith were living by the Rule of Two . The Sith Rule of Twodemands that there are only two Sith at any one time , a Master and an prentice . While this has long been the compositor’s case , apprentices were allowed to train their own acolytes in the grim side of the Force , so long as the learner and acolyte duo never set about to overthrow the Master . At most , there would only have been three Sith hide out in the integral galax , and enshroud among the Jedi would have been the safest stake .

The Clone Wars saw five Sith warrior be together , primarily due to Maul and Savage Opress as two crazy cards .

DuringStar Wars’High Republic Era , the Jedi numbered in the tens of thousands . It would be very prosperous for the Sith to hide out among this number , practise their blue ways in secret but pretending to serve the light to those around them . This would explain Qimir ’s taradiddle that he was once a Jedi . While engage in the Order , a Sith could have recruited him before betraying him when observe another apprentice . If this were the cause , Qimir ’s secretiveness at Osha ’s question would make sense , as it was technically his Jedi and Sith Master who stabbed him in the back .

The neat scoundrel of Star Wars , the Sith are the Jedi ’s most fearsome enemies . Here are all 36 Dark Lords of the Sith revealed to appointment .

This Would Give The Sith A Constant Advantage

The Sith Hiding Among The Jedi Would Give Them A Tactical Benefit

apart from being an easier hiding blot for the Sith , dark siders hiding among the Jedi would also provide a tactical advantage . The Sith hid from the Jedi for millennia simply to abide their time until they could see to it triumph over their ancient foeman . by nature , this would involve the generations of Sith to cognise of their enemy ' tactics , movements , goals , and overall position . If the Sith infiltrated the Jedi , this information would become much easier to acquire .

It is not out of the land of possibility to assume the Sith infiltrated the Jedi as a tactical move as well as a way of keep on secrecy …

Being among the Jedi , populate in the Coruscant Temple , and within a unremitting range of the Jedi Council would countenance the Sith to endlessly supervise the Jedi . This is exactly how Palpatine managed to eventually defeat the Jedi , as he integrated the Senate so heavily with the Jedi Order . chip in this knowledge , it is not out of the realm of possibility to assume the Sith infiltrate the Jedi as a tactical move as well as a agency of keep concealment . This could all be proven by Qimir ’s existence inThe Acolyte , and more potential reveals about his Jedi past could support the possibility .
