Behind the scenes
- "The issue also introduces Terec and Ceret who are two of the first Jedi that Keeve Trennis meets when she is posted to Starlight Beacon. Hailing from the planet Kotab, the pair are bond-twins, siblings who, for all intents and purposes, share the same gestalt mind."
- ―Cavan Scott, on the Kotabi twins' origins
