Bringing the Force to a Knife Fight

… and some Star Wars-ian “aggressive negotiations” promptly break out. Indara’s character file describes her as a Jedi of “great physical and mental skill,” which we promptly see here as she weaves and parries through Mae’s knife attacks. A welcome sight until the very end of this trailer is that while we see Jedi engage in combat multiple times, for the most part, they don’t use their lightsabers (you can see Indara’s is still sheathed on her robes’ belt while she fights Mae). It’s a nice little welcome differentiation that their first resort in this enlightened era, even in conflict, is not to immediately break them out.
