    It’s my head cannon that Morgan just hadn’t gone through the Nightsister rite of passage similar to the one Ventress puts Quinlan through in dark disciple. Upon rewatching the episode, her markings almost look painted on, so maybe she was gifted the powers as she trains/prepares to face her final test before being baptized into the clan properly. And when she does receive the gifts from the three mothers on Peridea the markings definitely look more permanent.

    Nightsister magic has weird rules, but Merrin probably learned the magic while Morgan was “given” her magic by Talzin via her tattoos, and they were taken away when the connection was broken

  • @jiffypoo5029
    @jiffypoo5029 28 днів тому +2

    Merrin stayed in the enclave, studied the old ways, dominated the Nightbrothers and kept using ichor and magick. Morgan left the Nightsister enclave after the destruction. Morgan became a capitalist and Merrin became an unofficial Nightmother.

  • @TheRealCodeBlack
    @TheRealCodeBlack Місяць тому +3

    I figured the difference was just that Morgan was given power by the Nightsisters but hadn't fully learned it, so when the Nightsisters' spells failed she lost the power they gave her, whereas Merrin didn't just share in the sisters' collective spells but actively had to learn and maintain all of those spells herself.
    Essentially, Merrin kept her magic because she was able to actually put in the work.

    So regarding the Pellaeon issue, the subtitles on the episode spoiled the fact it was Pellaeon and I have never read 'Thrawn: Treason' before this. So I just thought that TOTE Episode 2 took place sometime between Thrawn's promotion to the rank of Admiral (whenever that is in the timeline) and Rebels season 3.

    Maul tells Ezra in rebels that the night sisters use an aspect of the force but it was their connection to the planet that made them powerful. Loth wolves also have a deep connection to lothal. Merrin stays and Morgan leaves so I think it makes sense. Windu calls magic an illusion and death can make it go away, just like savage returns to normal at his death

    • @zephyr835

    The way I interpreted what happened to Morgan was that the tattoos that disappeared were just a buff that was applied to her and she never knew or bothered to cast the spell to apply the buff back onto her whereas Mirin was a pretty experienced Nightsister before the fall so she would have put the buff on herself at some point.

We did saw Barris definitely did betrayed the Fourth Sister wasn't due just to helping a wounded Jedi, but we definitely saw that she did that due to the Fourth Sister killed those innocent people for hiding a Jedi and Barris find this as Chaos instead of Order. We know that her realization in that mission that she clearly made a huge mistake believing the Jedi aren't the ones truly hurting innocent people, it was the Empire doing this.
