Anakin tells Ahsoka that she has a chance to survive and he has come to finish her training. He asks her to choose to live, and attacks her. On Seatos, Hera and Huyang search for Ahsoka and Sabine. Hera's son Jacen, who has a connection to the Force like his father Kanan Jarrus, hears the sounds of Ahsoka and Anakin fighting and directs the search party. Ahsoka relives fragments of her youth during the Clone Wars and expresses concerns about her legacy as a soldier and as the student of Anakin, who fell to the dark side and became the Sith lord Darth Vader before being redeemed with his passing. As Anakin continues to fight her, Ahsoka comes to terms with these issues and chooses to live on.
In the aftermath of the fall of the Galactic Empire, the galaxy remains in a fragile state of recovery, caught between the remnants of Imperial forces and emerging factions vying for power. Amidst this turmoil, Ahsoka Tano, once a Jedi Padawan under Anakin Skywalker, now stands as a rogue force in a galaxy still struggling with the scars of war. After severing her ties with the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars, Ahsoka has wandered the galaxy, seeking to help where she can, though always keeping her distance from the institutions and ideologies that once shaped her life.
Ahsoka's searches for answers as a shadowy new threat emerges in the galaxy. Having already encountered the darkness that lurks within the Empire, she begins to sense a growing power tied to an ancient and forgotten evil that may be stirring once again. As she delves deeper into this mystery, Ahsoka's journey takes her to new corners of the galaxy, where she confronts not only dark forces but also the lingering ghosts of her past. The memories of her former mentor, Anakin Skywalker - now Darth Vader - haunt her, and she must wrestle with the weight of their history together.
On her journey, Ahsoka encounters a variety of figures, both new and familiar. One of the most prominent is Sabine Wren, a former rebel and Mandalorian warrior who, like Ahsoka, has endured great loss. Together, they begin to piece together the threads of this new threat. They must prevent Grand Admiral Thrawn - who is stranded in another galaxy - from returning and uniting the remnants of the Empire against the fledgling New Republic. As Ahsoka unravels the secrets of this growing dark force, she will have to decide whether she can truly walk alone, or whether, in the face of an ever-changing universe, she can find the allies and the courage to forge a new way forward.
