Star Wars The Acolyte: This New Theory About The Origins Of The Sith After Episode 6



Star Wars The Acolyte Episode 6

Episode 5 of Star Wars The Acolyte did well by proposing throughout a clash between the antagonist of the series and the Jedi led by Master Sol (Lee Jung-jae). The episode revealed the true face of the Sith, that of Qimir (Manny Jacinto)and saw almost all the Jedi killed. Mae then left with Sol, pretending to be her sister Osha, who was taken by Qimir. An exchange whose consequences we expected Episode 6which turned out to be much softer than the previous one. Logical since, after the clash, they expected explanations…

So, we saw Sol at his worst after the death of his companions. At the end of his strength, he does not realize that Mae has taken Osha’s place. It is only after a conversation with her about what happened on Brendok that the Jedi understands the deception. However, everything suggests that Sol did not tell Osha the whole truth about this event. And his departure before the rescue operations led by Vernestra Rwoh not arriving is all the more suspicious.

At the same time, we find Osha waking up in Qimir’s lair on an isolated island. It doesn’t take long to understand the Sith’s intentions, that he intends to turn her to the dark side so that she can become his Acolyte. His words manage to touch her, and when she sits up his mask of cortosisthe worst is to be expected.

Qimir’s past is tied to Vernestra Rwoh

In the midst of all this, one detail has made the most attentive fans waver. During the episode, Qimir shows a massive scar on his back and implies that the person responsible could be a Jedi. In episode 5 of Star Wars The Acolytehad made a remark to Sol regarding the Jedi attacking their opponents from behind. However, the person behind this marking could be quite Vernestra Rwoh. In fact, the latter eventually took out her saber to cut a creature to pieces. The opportunity to show off this particular weapon that is similar to a laser whip – first seen in a live action Star Wars film.

Its use is clearly anecdotal in this episode. On the other hand, seeing Qimir’s back, the shape of his scar resembles a whip. It is difficult then not to connect the two elements. For some viewers it is now obvious that the Jedi and the antagonist of the series know each other.

It is said that Qimir is a former Padawan who left the Jedi Temple a long time ago, after being rejected by Vernestra Rwoh. We can also ask questions about the latter, about the reasons for this rejection and about these marks left on Qimir’s back, if this whole hypothesis is confirmed. The answer, perhaps, on July 10 with episode 7 of Star Wars The Acolyte on Disney+.
