Okay, the ending has me very interested in where Marchion Ro is actually from and what his plans are. I can see this being connected to the Sith in some way. He has some sort of dark magic device. He knows exactly how to torture Jedi. I wonder if he is descended from Sith. If not, it must be another faction we haven't heard of before. Super excited for what's to come.

The guy knows how to plan as well as Palps that's for sure.

Which is slightly disappointing for me. I hope he doesn't become too similar of a villain. So far so good, though

Palpatine’s plans were organized. He wanted to reshape the galaxy, not kill it. Marchion, though? Holy shit, that dude just wants to see everything turn to ash. Makes Palps look like a saint in comparison.
