Ezra was pleased with how Theia handled the chief. She could have flown off the handle or given him attitude for his behavior. However, she kept her cool and laid down the facts. Ultimately, they had a lead and freedom to operate without the village itself becoming a problem.
It wasn’t until they were out of earshot that Ezra turned to regard Theia, “I…have a theory. Not a sound one, but a hunch,” He said, “The Jedi that went to investigate Coruscant, Byblos and some of the other planets under attack, they spoke of surges in activities on a monthly cycle. I wonder if this monster has something to do with Raze, though not sure why he would target this village,” Ezra grimaced. Right when he thought he was getting closer to understanding the enemy, he was thrown back to square one.
Arrow’s Pass was a long hike and Ezra never developed his father’s love of hiking. He was annoyed just a few steps in, already wondering if there was a rental speeder they could adapt to take them up the path. Fortunately, with the planet’s strong presence of the Force, he felt better all around.
“Maybe it’s because of the Force on this planet,” Ezra mused, suddenly recalling the planet’s pull, “He would want to find ways to corrupt here and create a dark nexus. It would perhaps be the most powerful of all,” Ezra said. They couldn’t allow that to happen.
