Hello, Fourth Sister

We cut to an Imperial detention block, as an Inquisitor is flanked by two Clone Troopers bearing the markings of the Coruscant Guard—indicating that this is much earlier on in the rise of the Empire than perhaps the stuff we’re seeing with Thrawn and Elsbeth. That Inquisitor is a familiar one, too: it’s the Fourth Sister from Obi-Wan Kenobi, with Rya Kihlstedt returning to reprise her live-action role in animation.

Material provided by Disney and Lucasfilm alongside the trailer’s release reveals that she was named Lyn before she became an Inquisitor. It’s important to note that Lyn/Fourth Sister is not wearing Inquisitorius gear here, but robes that look very Jedi—suggesting this might be very, very shortly after the establishment of the Empire.
