Mind-Blowing Revelation: Uncover the Unprecedented Link Between Ahsoka Show and Darth Maul

The official trailer for Ahsoka suggests a strong connection between the show and Darth Maul from Star Wars. Despite Maul's canonical death, set before the original trilogy, there are hints that Ahsoka may still be linked to the former Sith Lord. This connection potentially involves Morgan Elsbeth, a character introduced in The Mandalorian season 2, who serves Thrawn. The theory proposes that Elsbeth, as a Nightsister, is connected to Maul's home world of Dathomir, where the Nightsisters practice their unique form of Force manipulation known as magick. While this theory may seem unlikely, the Ahsoka trailer drops hints that Elsbeth's nature may indeed be tied to magick and thus to Darth Maul through Dathomir's dangerous terrain.

The Ahsoka Trailer Subtly Hints At A Return To Maul's Homeworld

Elsbeth's potential connection to the Nightsisters becomes evident as she, Shin Hati, and Baylan Skoll examine a starmap in the trailer. A shot reveals Elsbeth's hand above the starmap, radiating a subtle green glow. Throughout Star Wars, the Nightsisters have been associated with the color green, from the flames that illuminate their homes on Dathomir to the hue of their magic.

The aforementioned trailer spot, where Elsbeth appears to wield Nightsister magic, is highlighted in this social media post. It also references other instances of Nightsister Force powers witnessed in the Star Wars universe, supporting the theory that Elsbeth shares a connection to Dathomir, just like Maul. The scene's background showcases vibrant red trees, a characteristic feature of Dathomir's predominantly red foliage and atmosphere. This imagery suggests a potential return to Dathomir and establishes a link between Ahsoka and the former Sith Lord native to the planet.

How Do Morgan Elsbeth's Powers Work?

If Morgan Elsbeth is indeed revealed to be a Nightsister as hinted in the Easter eggs of the Ahsoka trailer, it raises the question of how her powers function. Despite engaging in a duel with Ahsoka in The Mandalorian season 2, Elsbeth never displayed her potential magic, assuming she possessed it. The explanation for this may lie in the origin of the Nightsisters' power, as outlined in the book Star Wars Jedi: Battle Scars, a prequel to the upcoming video game Star Wars Jedi: Survivor in 2023.

According to the book, Nightsister magic is intrinsically tied to the planet of Dathomir itself, which is a powerful focal point in the Force. This clarifies why the Nightsisters exhibit heightened abilities when utilizing their powers on the planet's surface. Furthermore, Nightsister magic is deeply connected to a sense of community, despite its affiliation with the Dark Side of the Force. As Elsbeth was not on Dathomir during The Mandalorian season 2 and predominantly ruled over Caladan in isolation as its sole malevolent leader, her powers may not have come to fruition. This potential explanation could retroactively establish that Elsbeth is indeed a Nightsister and has a connection to Maul through Dathomir, aligning with the implications presented in the Ahsoka trailer.
