Summary
- Lothal, the homeworld of Ezra Bridger, plays a significant role in the history of the Jedi due to its hidden Jedi Temple and deep connection to the Force.
- The Force vergence on Lothal is tied to the nature of attachment and grants those in proximity visions and other gifts. The temple on Lothal was a site of Jedi training, with younglings undergoing trials and training based on the planet's unique landscape.
- The Jedi Temple on Lothal was a place of pilgrimage for Jedi, where they would undergo spiritual trials to test their control over their attachments. Despite its fate, the temple's teachings and legacy continue to inspire Jedi like Ezra, and there is a possibility of its return in future Star Wars stories.
Deep Star Wars lore has given Lothal, the homeworld of Ezra Bridger, even more importance in the history of the Jedi. First introduced in the animated Star Wars Rebels series, Lothal is a rural planet in the Outer Rim of the galaxy with a mostly uneventful history – aside from its ancient Jedi history and its Imperial and Rebel activity just before the Galactic Civil War. Most recently, Lothal made its live-action debut in the Ahsoka series as the planet where Sabine Wren resided until she joined Ahsoka Tano on her mission to find Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ezra.
Ever since its debut, Lothal's importance to the galaxy has only grown more and more, especially to the Jedi and the Force. The planet's most notable landmark has long since been its hidden Jedi Temple, and although it was destroyed during the Imperial era, its ancient and influential history has never dwindled. There's a reason why this Jedi Temple was established on Lothal, and now, deep Star Wars lore has added an even greater emphasis to the planet's important role in the history of the Jedi.
