The Acolyte may have been one of the shortest-lived Star Wars shows, but it opened up an entirely new chapter of the timeline. Set a century before the prequel trilogy, it was able to show viewers what the galaxy looked like before Palpatine and Anakin even existed. A certain Sith, however, was around back in those days, and in the show’s finale, we finally saw him: Darth Plagueis, the Sith master destined to train Palpatine.
His appearance, a teaser for a Season 2 that would never be, was brief and lacking details, so it was hard to glean anything from it. However, a new book has just revealed crucial information about the scene that ties it to Plagueis’ backstory.
