There have been heaps of fan theories about Baylan Skoll and who or what he sensed on Peridea, but in today's Ahsoka finale...well, we didn't really receive any definitive answers.
However, as the former Jedi sets out on a quest across the planet, he's shown standing atop a statue of the Mortis Gods. The Father and Son are intact, but the daughter is not. In the distance, a light calls out to Baylan, confirming his story is far from over.
So, what the heck does any of this mean?
In The Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano encountered The Mortis gods, a family of three incredibly powerful Force-users. Thousands of years old, they were there when the Jedi Order was first formed and the living embodiment of the Force.
The Father represents the balance between the Light (The Daughter) and the Dark (The Son), but all three died during their encounter with the Jedi. The Son's attempt to escape Mortis was thwarted when he inadvertently killed his sister, prompting The Father to take his own life. Anakin then killed this embodiment of the Dark Side, but it now seems as if something of them remains on Peridea.
Anakin was offered the chance to take The Father's place and refused, setting the trio's death in motion. The animated series strongly hinted that Ahsoka and Anakin essentially embodied the Light and Dark, and the former's link to the Mortis Gods is once again hinted at here.
Not only did The Daughter resurrect her as a child during this encounter, but Morai - the owl-like creature who appears in the Ahsoka finale - is closely associated with the God, either as a representation of the Light or her avatar after death.
Morai was spotted in The World Between Worlds in Star Wars Rebels, while the Mortis Gods themselves adorned the entrance to that realm in the animated series. With Anakin on Peridea, you can probably make some guesses about how all these different elements are starting to link up as key players are put in the right places.
At the moment, though, we can't entirely make sense of them. Simply put, we don't know where Dave Filoni is taking this story but if The Mother - also known as Abeloth - is alive and well on Peridea, then that could spell doom for every Galaxy in existence. We'll be sharing more details about the Expanded Universe villain soon.
Maybe some of Ahsoka's characters are fated to take their place, though we'd be remiss not to mention the theories suggesting that, in death, Anakin has himself become a Mortis God.
We'll have to wait and see but if you're wondering what became of Shin Hati, she too is left behind on Peridea and decides to lead the planet's bandits. Something tells us her story isn't over. Ahsoka season 2 really can't get here soon enough!
