Like Star Wars content fills time gaps, visions can help by exploring distant planets with a minimal role in the war. Like much of the recent Star Wars content, visions emphasizes the atrocities of the Empire. “In the Stars” shows the Empire taking over a distant world, stealing its resources and committing genocide against native species. Likewise, in Lop and Ocho, the Empire uses planetary resources despite the locals. “The Pit” details the lives of people enslaved by the Empire. Bandits of Golak and T0-B1 provide examples of the brutality of the Inquisitors in hunting down Jedi survivors and Force-sensitive children. “Spy Dancer” is another example of imperial brutality, featuring the kidnapping and indoctrination of Loya’s child. These episodes pair well with recent shows such as Andor And bad batchwho investigate the worst cases of the Empire. Such images make sinister villains even worse, proving the need for the Rebellion.

Temuera Morrison). Less obviously, there is a glimpse of Skywalker’s legendary lightsaber in “I Am Your Mother”. Set in the years between the original trilogy and the sequels, this will be after Luke (Mark Hamill) lost it, possibly explaining how Maz Kanata (Lupita Nyong’o) got it for the sequels.
