A New Hope?
But change appears to be on the horizon once more as we head into The Mandalorian season three. Bo-Katan Kryze’s attempts to reclaim her regency have been pushed back by the emergence of a new wielder of the Darksaber—Din Djarin, a former foundling adopted by Death Watch and raised as a member of one of the hidden coverts that stayed true to “The Way,” a martial culture inspired by the Martial Traditionalists. Now having adopted a Force-sensitive child as his own ward, Djarin is attempting to return to the devastated Mandalore having been ousted by his former tribe, to atone for his perceived crimes against his culture.
Little remains of the Mandalorian people, and little of Mandalore itself—but as the inevitable showdown between Kryze and her supporters, and the lone wolf Djarin, Mandalore is in the precipice of change. And perhaps, in some ways, an extended period of peace not felt on the world for generations.
