A war occurred in the far galaxy, long before the New Republic Era.[2] The Great Mothers, descendants from the ancient Witch Kingdom of the Dathmiri on Peridea,[1] were in a hibernation sleep during the war. When they were reawakened[2] by Mitth'raw'nuruodo,[3] they discovered their way of life had been destroyed, and the far galaxy and Peridea were largely dead and barren from the war.[2]
Behind the scenes
- "There are these characters that have survived in the Great Mothers in some kind of hibernation sleep. And when they wake up, they wake up to a different world where their entire way of life has been destroyed and suppressed. And they live in largely a dead galaxy and a dead planet where war wiped out everything."
- ―Dave Filoni
The far galaxy war was mentioned by Dave Filoni in "Darkness Rising," a featurette included in Ahsoka: The Complete First Season, as part of backstory for the series.[2]
