EvenStar Warshas finally acknowledged that the prequel Jedi Order had become “cruel.”
There was just one problem, I swiftly realized: this Jedi Order was nothing like what I expected.
To be fair to George Lucas, that was kind of the point.
Like Luke Skywalker, I’d idealized the Jedi Order, viewing them through the lens of hero worship.
But now,Star Warsis going a little further - openly acknowledging the Jedi had become cruel.
Complete separation was not only more difficult under such circumstances but cruel.
They made occasional visits, knew their relations, and went to Kashyyyk for various festivals.
This fits perfectly with canon, where we’ve seen Wookiee Jedi frequently associated with their homeworld of Kashyyyk.
EvenThe Acolyte’s Kelnacca, who retreated from the Order, headed to a forested world similar to Kashyyyk.
But this has massive implications when it comes to the aforementioned Gungi.
Now a Padawan, he hadsurvived Order 66and was now headed back to his homeworld to lie low.
The Jedi Order was cruel to separate Gungi from Kashyyyk like this.
