A soka flower was a type of flower found on the planet Siline.[1] In 134 BBY,[2] Jedi Padawan Jecki Lon, a Theelin-human hybrid, ate a handful of soka flowers during the survival level of the Crowning Convocation coming-of-age ritual on Siline. After waking up on the second day of the survival level, Lon came across a pair of Silinese sharing fruit from an uavin tree. Lon decided to avoid them, as she thought it was unlikely they would be friendly, and in addition to believing it was wrong to fight over food, Lon felt she would not be at her best with only water and soka flowers in her system.[1]
Behind the scenes
Soka flowers were mentioned in The Acolyte: The Crystal Crown, a 2025 young-adult novel by Tessa Gratton.[1]

- ↑ The events of The Acolyte: The Crystal Crown take place in 134 BBY per the following reasoning. The Acolyte: The Crystal Crown establishes that Jecki Lon is the Padawan of Sol and Yord Fandar has yet to undertake his Jedi Trials. The novel also states that Lon has been Sol's Padawan for at least two years, as well as that Sol had not taken a Padawan for years after his former Padawan, Verosha Aniseya, left the Jedi Order. From this, at least four years have passed since Aniseya left the Order. "Lost / Found"—the events of which take place in 132 BBY per the reasoning here—establishes Aniseya left the Order six years before its events, equating to 138 BBY. The episode further states Fandar passed his Jedi Trials two years before its events, meaning he must have passed his Trials in 134 BBY.
