Peridea 101 - Dathomir, The Zeffo, and the Mortis Connection
Show notes
Join Children of the Watch for Peridea 101! In the first part of this two-part special, we're running down everything you need to know about the shadowy mystical origins of Dathomir and the Nightsistsers and how they connect to an ancient civilization known as the Zeffo. It's the perfect way to get acquainted with the mysteries of the Force which Ahsoka Season 2 hints at digging through.
We're talking Kujet, Zeffo migrations between our galaxy and the Peridea galaxy, ancient wars between early Nightsisters and ancient light-side force users, the whole nine yards. Some of our favorite Star Wars speculation we've done to date!
We also begin the episode with a discussion of Biddy Blas, the racer who has taken the galaxy by storm.
Join us next week for more Peridea prep!
