The Acolyte’s third episode delves further into the mystery of the witches on Bradok, revealing new connections between the characters and established Star Wars lore. The flashbacks show a group of young Jedi confronting a coven of witches led by the Zabrak Mother Koril.

The episode draws parallels between the witches and Darth Maul’s species, suggesting a connection to the Sith Lord’s heritage. Additionally, the concept of immaculate conception, previously established with Anakin Skywalker, is echoed with the witches’ origins. The absence of fathers for both Osha and Mae hints at a possible dark influence behind their birth.

Torbin, one of the Jedi investigating the witches, makes a reference to midi-chlorians, microscopic life forms that enhance Force abilities. This connection to the mystical power further aligns the witches with Anakin’s lineage.

With these connections to Anakin and the wider Star Wars universe, The Acolyte promises to unravel a complex mystery surrounding the High Republic era, one filled with darkness, mystery, and forbidden knowledge.
