However , even without laboured influences of the Sith or knobby white ice spiders , one satellite that has just been introduced inStar Warslore is more terrifying than all of them - for one unlikely reason .
InStar Wars : Darth Maul - Black , White & Red#1 by Benjamin Percy and Stefano Raffaele , Darth Maul is air to stop a prisoner - exaltation ship by Darth Sidious , as Palpatine becomes aware of three inmates that broke free on the vessel who were of great sake to him . These prisoner were the three leaders of aStar Warscult called the Final Occultation , and they have access to power beyond the reach of thegalaxy .
The Final Occultation drawing card channel their world power from another proportion called the Netherworld , which accord them the ability to wielddark magic that even Palpatine himself can not fathom . When Darth Maul board the ship , he is hit with demonic visions that seemingly transport his heart to a nightmare realm fill up with nothing but pain in the ass and revulsion . After learning that the cultists are open a severance between this world and the Netherworld right there on the ship , which would flood the galaxy with this demonic energy , Darth Maul does everything he can to block them .

Darth Maul Thinks He Destroyed the Final Occultation, But He May Be Wrong
The Final Occultation leadership can squirm their fashion into Darth Maul ’s judgement , make him have hyperreal vision that he ca n’t escape . They can grant themselves superhuman strong suit and strength , enough to wipe out an intact ship full of train prison house guards like it ’s nothing . And they can also make an interdimensional portal to a nightmarish hellscape dimension just from the superfluous office of a ship . In other words , the Final Occultation is resilient , and its members are deadly .
Crashing a ship full of the cultists might have killed a fair act of them , and Darth Maul himself took out two of the three leader , but the high priest of the Final Occultation , and the break they were open to the Netherworld , may very well have pull through the crash .
These are otherworldly powers fuel by everlasting cosmic chaos , after all , meaning there ’s no evidence what those who channel it can do , and how herculean and/or indestructible they are . Not only that , but a gob torn through the fabric of world does n’t seem like it can be patched up with a crashed ship , intend there could be a gateway to a hell - attribute residing on this gelid major planet - with a potentially all - sinewy gatekeeper - just waiting to be found .
Star Wars Sets Up the Perfect Villain for the Next Chapter in the Franchise
Darth Maul left a pandora ’s box on a mystical ice satellite without establish sure every last trace of the Final Occultation was demolish in the crash , which is the perfect setup for a futureStar Warsstory . If the chaos the Final Occultation planned to release from the Netherworld actually made it through the rupture they created , it would mean the end of the entireStar Warsuniverse . The world would be subjugate to a swirling hellscape of painfulness and horror , the most paralyzing incubus made manifest . So , what happens if someone trip upon the wreckage , and unleash these horrors ?
While formally the Final Occultation inStar Warscanon has been counteract , it seems more likely than not that at least some fraction of the craze and the interdimensional break they opened last the crash . And if that ’s the pillow slip , it could mean the end of the full universe of discourse should someone bump upon it ( which is very likely in a universe where interplanetary locomotion is the norm ) . So , for that intellect , this unidentified ice satellite has just become the most terrific world in theStar Warsgalaxy .
