We\u2019ll explain along with our Hot Takes, poll results, and more!
The title of an Expanded Universe novel has been permanently etched into my memory. I remember sitting in the Star Wars section of Waldenbooks multiple times, debating whether or not to purchase it, or another novel that seemed interesting - Heir to the Empire. Eventually, I chose Heir to the Empire. But now, Bakura has reappeared in the minds of Star Wars fans who watched last week\u2019s Galaxy\u2019s Edge: Adventure Awaits special on Freeform.

(A) huge clue Zorri\u2019s backstory might be hiding in plain sight. Redditor u/thekoonw theorizes that not only does Zorri\u2019s role in Episode IX mirror that of Lara Croft in Tomb Raider, but insists that her costume is etched with the ancient Jedi language. Referred to by Star Wars Rebels\u2019 Ahsoka Tano as the \u201cold tongue,\u201d the ancient Force language has appeared on the Jedi Temple of Lothal and in the Great Temple on Yavin 4.
Though the old language has never been given an official name, it has appeared across several mediums of the Star Wars franchise, most notably in the Rebels animated TV series. The language, which was used by Force users across the galaxy, appears prominently on Jedi temples, but it\u2019s also been seen on the walls of the Sith Temple on Malachor. However, the script is most prominent on Massassi\u2019s Great Temple on Yavin 4, one of the moons orbiting Yavin.
\u201cLook at her costume and zoom in to see some kind of \u2018language etched on her\u2026 belts?\u201d the theorist writes. \u201cAround her torso and her\u2026 golden metallic arm bands. The language looks familiar with the \u2018old tongue\u2019 language appeared in Rebels show.\u201d

Star Wars seemingly adds old Wedge Antilles to the cover of the upcoming novel Resistance Reborn. The book, which will be published in November, is part of the "Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" line looking to capitalize on the hype and anticipation for this December's Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. It fills in the gaps between The Last Jedi and Star Wars 9, depicting Rey, Finn, and Poe Dameron's first mission together as they work with General Leia to rebuild the Resistance following the Battle of Crait.
