Warning ! This post turn back SPOILERS for The Acolyte sequence 6
Summary

Due to some key teases within the episode on this mysterious humans , The Acolytemay be point to the origins of the Sith themselves . Even if Qimir ( Manny Jacinto ) is eventually expose to be something other than the honest Dark Lords , it ’s certainly potential that this newStar Warsshow is still offering new insights into the early Sith .
As ascertain inThe Acolyteepisode 6 , Mae ( Amandla Stenberg ) leaves the satellite Khofar with Master Sol ( Lee Jung - jae ) , having disguised herself as her duplicate babe Osha . Meanwhile , Osha has been remove to an unknown satellite by Qimir who seemingly wants to make her his raw acolyte .

However , it could also be link up to a key world from Legends at the same time .
What ’s the best way to watch Star Wars ? Here ’s everything you need to know to watch in outlet or timeline social club , and how to admit the TV shows .
The Acolyte’s Unknown Planet Is A Mirror Of The Last Jedi’s Ahch-To
“Unknown Planet”
Waking up on a world identified only as " unnamed Planet " , Osha obtain herself on an ocean domain covered in islands with jumpy beach . Appearing to be the dwelling house of Qimir as his primary base of operations hidden away from the rest of the galaxy , it ’s not hard to see the resemblances to Ahch - To , the satellite where Luke go into exile after Ben Solo decrease to the dark side , where he shortly trained Rey , and where he become flat giving his life story to salve the remaining members of the Resistance as seen inThe Last Jedi .
Some more primal parallels are made toThe Last Jedibeyond the incredibly standardised ocean worlds . The biggest representative is Osha ’s Modern dress that very closely resemble what Rey fatigue inThe Last Jediand preponderantly during her breeding with Luke Ahch - To(gray with open shoulder ) . Additionally , this world also has its own diminutive and precious creatures to mirror Ahch - To ’s bird - like creatures love as porgs .
Has Star Wars Brought Us To Bal’demnic?
A Legends Planet Connected To Darth Plagueis
While the parallels toThe Last JediinThe Acolyteepisode 6 are numerous , this world may also be a primal satellite from Legends at the same fourth dimension . After all , this " Unknown Planet " also carry similarity to the world of Bal’demnic , described as an ocean planet with rough islands located in the Outer Rim . In the former Legends timeline pre - Disney canon , Bal’demnic was also the site where Darth Plagueis killed his master Darth Tenebrous . Likewise , they were on the globe in the first placesearching for rarified cortosis ore ( the same metal used to forge Qimir ’s helmet ) .
That suppose , it would also be exciting if this world is finally give away as an entirely new location yet also connected to the very first Sith . As such , this satellite could be a dark upending of Ahch - To as a mirrored creation marry to their origins as dark - side usersseparate from the Jedi Order . While planets such as Moraband / Korriban were root worlds for the first Sith , it ’s possible that this raw planet could hold some sort of key implication as well .
Like The Sith, The Stranger Comes From Among The Jedi
The Sith Were A Splinter Group From The Order
While the connections to bothThe Last Jediand possibly Legends with Darth Plagueisare exciting , it ’s also fascinating to memorise that Qimir was once a member of the Jedi Order before encompass the dark side . As such , this mirrors the origins and account of the Sith themselves , having splinter off from the former Jedi Order in search of young paths to handle the Force . As such , it would be rather poetical if this world where Qimir is ground was link to the early Sith , just as the planet it ’s intelligibly modeled after is connected to the first Jedi .
Furthermore , the potential connections this world might also have to Darth Plagueis are just as intriguingand exciting as well . While Plagueis and his professional Darth Tenebrousare part of the officialStar Warscanon , Bal’demnic and the consequence that occurred remained part of Legends . As such , perhapsThe Acolyteis preparing to make the planet and more component of that original chronicle canyon once more as the newStar Warsreaches its concluding two episode .
New episodes of The Acolyte release on Tuesdays at 9 PM EST/6 PM PST on Disney+ .
