"He Will Avenge Us": 'Star Wars Rebels' Reveals How Palpatine Destroyed Both The Jedi & The Sith
Warning: This article contains spoilers for the Star Wars: Rebels episode 'Twin Suns'!
"He will avenge us." With his final breath, Maul pointed to a beautiful symmetry between himself and his nemesis, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Both are old men now, tired warriors who have been locked in battle over the course of decades. They have both known glory and honor on the battlefield, they have both commanded great armies, and they have both dealt one another terrible pain over the years. In truth though, neither was the other's real enemy. Instead, both were pawns of Palpatine, otherwise known as Darth Sidious. The result of their misguided feud is that both stories end in the dust and sand of a backwater desert world.
