After the tragic Order 66 resulted in the widespread massacre of the Jedi, few managed to escape the purge. The desert planet of Tatooine became the exile haven for our cherished Jedi Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, circumstances pushed him out of hiding and into the den of the dreaded Inquisitors, the Empire’s elite Jedi hunting squadron. There, in the Fortress Inquisitorius, Kenobi stumbled upon a horrifying revelation: the Empire, in its grotesque bid to stamp its authority, had preserved the corpses of slain Jedi in amber, almost like grotesque trophies from a twisted hunt.

One name, in particular, stands out from this shocking discovery. Lucasfilm’s Dawn of Rebellion: The Visual Guide offers an in-depth look at the Inquisitors and confirms the identity of a Jedi who had narrowly evaded the fatal Order 66. Valerie Tide, the said Jedi, had taken refuge on Athio III, striving to blend in with its inhabitants. Her past, symbolized by a necklace bearing the Jedi emblem – a rarity since Jedi were known not to keep personal keepsakes – gave her away. Once she used the Force, it wasn’t long before whispers reached the ears of the Inquisitors. Her capture was inevitable.

The fate that awaited Valerie was beyond any conventional understanding of cruelty. The narrative hints not just at her demise by the Empire, but also the harrowing possibility of her being preserved in amber in a living state. This chilling technique of execution brings to mind Han Solo’s imprisonment in carbonite from The Empire Strikes Back. However, while Solo’s imprisonment had a chance of survival, amber would ensure a slow and agonizing end. The depth of the Inquisitors’ sadism, it seems, knows no bounds.

The chilling possibility that the Inquisitors might have been trapping living Jedi in amber adds a layer of horror to the Obi-Wan Kenobi series. It makes Kenobi’s discovery not just a grim testament to the Empire’s brutality but also a poignant reflection on the horrors that befell those who once upheld peace across the galaxy. Even in his brief encounter with the gruesome display, Kenobi, and indeed the viewers, are reminded of the Empire’s relentless cruelty.

The ongoing Star Wars narratives continue to explore the nuanced shades between light and dark, often blurring the lines with unsettling truths. This recent revelation about the Order 66 survivor and her harrowing fate is a testament to the franchise’s commitment to push the boundaries of storytelling, making audiences ponder on the extent of atrocities the Empire is willing to commit in its quest for dominance. The Force, it seems, still has many tales to unfold.
