i had like three trains of thought first i thought he may still see some value in the remnants of the empire that moff gideon is heading over and he may align with them still i also had the train of thought of what if he doesn't see like any sort of value in them anymore because palpatine's gone so he may not be a big bad that was my second train of thought and then my third train of thought like you brought up is um what if he aligns with palpatine who is like gone but like not really gone um so i was like maf gideon thinks he's going like the ghost and pac-man that are just eyes right there they're going back to be recharged in the middle so he moff gideon's over there thinking he's big bad guy with like the remnants of the empire but maybe thrawn is going straight to palpatine who's rebuilding his cool sith club thrawn's past has been documented in these new novels by timothy zahn where we actually see the chest and see how powerful they are and i just think that since palpatine is basically nothing but a few guys in cloaks with a test tube i don't know how much we're going to see of that just yet not like five five or six years after return of the jedi but you do have this race of like blue skin red-eyed aliens out there who if the chiss were still active right like around the time of rise of skywalker and force awakens if they were still active in the unknown regions they would have been a hindrance to palpatine and his sith i forget what they're called his sith fleet he would you know in his fleet rising up that's why i kind of think we're more than likely going to see thrawn back with his people with ezra as a prisoner that you know that he can experiment with or learn force things from because that's how the chiss traveled through space was with force sensitive people um and i i just kind of think that's where we're gonna go they called them skywalkers that's right and uh that's a great book the second of the new thrawn novels is really good so i i go back to that i think we're going to see live action chess grand admiral thrawn and just really diving into that corner because like you said dave filoni doesn't like to stick too much to things that have been done before so if he has this whole corner of the galaxy that has not been explored the unknown regions that he can just play in i think that's much more history i think it would be a lot of fun because it almost opens up the possibility of thrawn becoming like a teammate through a mutual enemy like if if they do see the chiss as a threat and thrawn's main interest is to protect his people then that there's their common enemy it's it's the rise of the first order in palpatine in them so i would love to see that aspect of maybe we assume he's going to be a big bad but maybe he's
