Lucasfilm has now all but confirmed one of the most popular fan theories surrounding the show, and it ties directly into the future of the Sith and the origins of Kylo Ren. From the moment he stepped on screen, fans questioned exactly where he fit in Sith history and whether he even counted as a true Sith Lord. According to the book, it was intentionally designed to echo the iconic look of Kylo Ren. They weren’t full Sith and were often dismissed by true Sith Lords as underpowered, but they still operated in the shadows, far from Republic space. The Acolyte may be finished, but its shadow still stretches all the way to Kylo Ren.
