==Development==
Stories of Jedi and Sith was originally going to be a High Republic Era-focused anthology before shifting to focus on numerous eras.Stories of Jedi and Sith Before its change in focus, author Tessa Gratton hoped to write a story about Marchion Ro and had three pitches prepared about his teenage years. After the shift, Gratton prepared to write a story about a light side of the Force-aligned character until learning, via her editor, that the anthology still needed a Sith-focused storyline. Having been scared of Darth Sidious since she was three and hoping to give Sidious and Yoda's duel in the Galactic Senate a formal resolution, she wrote "Masters."
