A new Star Wars book has revealed a fairly fascinating truth in regards to the galaxy far, distant: Luke Skywalker knows Cal Kestis survived Order 66.
The book Star Wars: The Secrets of the Jedi: The Chronicles of Luke Skywalker (an up to date version of Star Wars: The Secrets of the Jedi), by Marc Sumerak, reveals the information.
One fan posted the related web page to Twitter. On it, Luke writes: “Order 66 might have seemed like a quick and efficient method of eliminating the Jedi, but not every member of the Order succumbed to this act of betrayal. A small handful of Jedi managed to escape execution, such as Master Jaro Tapal’s Padawan Cal Kestis, but their numbers continued to fall during the years that followed.”
This is a reasonably vital growth, since we do not truly know what the long run holds for Cal Kestis after Jedi: Survivor.
The sport is ready in 9 BBY, AKA 9 years earlier than Luke blew up the Death Star on the Star Wars timeline. Cal’s destiny is totally unclear after the occasions of the sport as he would not present up in one other canon story, however Luke Skywalker has not solely heard of him, however even knows the title of his Master. The book was “written” in 34 BBY, AKA 34 years after the Death Star, however it’s not clear when Luke discovered the information.
It’s doable Luke heard of Cal by the Rebellion, since Cal works for Saw Gerrera in Jedi: Survivor. But, when Yoda dies in Return of the Jedi, he tells Luke that he’ll quickly be the final of the Jedi, which Luke would not dispute – so, to keep away from reconning this second, it appears unlikely Luke would be taught of Cal and his survival till after this level on the timeline. Maybe Luke and Cal have even met, assuming Cal remains to be round post-Return of the Jedi. Or, Cal did face off with Darth Vader, so possibly Anakin Skywalker’s Force ghost had one thing to say about him…
We would possibly discover out simply how Luke grew to become conscious of Cal Kestis and Jaro Tapal sometime, however, for now, it is a thriller.
