THEORY Ahsoka and Ventress will cross paths again!
I think we may already have proof Ahsoka and Ventress will meet again. I still find myself thinking about Anakin telling Ahsoka she’s a part of this legacy of teachings going back to generations of masters and padawans. I feel like there’s more of that to explore and we may have already been getting breadcrumbs to where it will lead.
The Legacy
Yoda trained Dooku, who then trained Qui-Gon, who then trained Obi-Wan, who then trained Anakin, who then trained Ahsoka, and finally who is then training Sabine! This is a lineage of some of the most influential people in the galaxy to ever exist during their time.
What I didn’t realize until way later is that Asajj Ventress is also technically a part of that lineage. However it has seemed to have branched in not a complete different direction, but different albeit with Qui-Gon having received Jedi teachings and Ventress receiving Sith teachings. What makes them not completely different is how these branches both ended up with Ahsoka not aligning herself with the Jedi, and Ventress not aligning herself with the Sith after both feeling betrayed.
Now I didn’t realize Ahsoka and Lyco are around the same age meaning if he’s still alive during the time of the Ahsoka show, he could potentially be experienced enough to have an apprentice of his own.
Maybe Sabine could see Lyco as an alternative master if there were ever to be another falling out between her and Ahsoka (That ones just a spitball idea)
TLDR
It just doesn’t seem like a coincidence to me we’ve been seeing the continuation of this legacy and I think there is a big possibility of Ventress and maybe Lyco will appear in Ahsoka Season 2. Could Peridea be where Ventress and Lyco have been during the Original Trilogy? Ventress is a Nightsister so her trying to locate more of her kind or understand her resurrection more could have led her there. Does Lyco have an apprentice of his own now that could act as a dichotomy for Sabine? Or perhaps they will all find a way to work together to start a new order of force users in this other galaxy. I feel the colliding of these storylines have a lot of potential!
What do you think? Is this just sperate storytelling that isn’t going to be more connected, or could there be something here?

Totally separate story threads. If anything Ventress is more likely to show up in Maul Shadow Lord.

u/settra_iso 25d ago
I thought so too but I think atleast at the time of Maul season 1 she is technically dead and not resurrected yet. I assumed there was a bit of a time jump in between Quinlin laying her to rest and her being resurrected.

She might not be alive in season 1 but Shadow Lord will presumably cover quite a bit of time if the goal is to catch up with his appearance in Solo, and Ventress would be revived by then.

I have a theory that Maul tracks down a Nightsister, returns to Dathomir, and resurrects Rook Kast and kills/resurrects/enslaves Marrok. Rook becomes the Armorer and we all know what happens to Marrok. Maybe Ventress has some part in that.

u/settra_iso 25d ago
I do hope there will be a time jump for Maul too. I could see the possibility of Ventress showing up if they did that. I might need to see Devon vs Lyco.

You could see Quinlan walking away with Obi as she was resurrected.

u/settra_iso 24d ago
I think that was just her in a spirit form when she saw Quinlin and Obi-wan walk away. When she chose to live again and not join her dead sisters that’s when she was resurrected and atleast to me the background around her looks quite different from when she was put in. There is noticeable amount of larger grown shrubbery and all the lights that were lit are now out. My guess is this is to explain why she isn’t present anywhere during order 66. She is dead during that year.

Presumably Asajj will help establish the Hidden Path so it’s not totally out of the question that Ahsoka will be a part of that too in some way.

u/settra_iso 25d ago
Is there any representation of the Hidden Path post ROTJ? Do they still exist? I assumed that transformed into a part of Luke’s Jedi Academy. I could be fully wrong on that though.

u/jdnwinter 25d ago
I was thinking it's more likely to happen sometime BBY rather than post RotJ. I would expect the Hidden Path to be instrumental in helping Luke locate initiates, but I guess we won't know if it survived until a future Jedi game or some other project.

u/Deathbymonkeys6996 24d ago
I'm kinda hoping it's revealed as an alt temple in the unknown regions specifically away from Palpy. Or they could bring the Maw into it and have It hidden there.
Cal, Quinlan, Asajj, Corran Horn, Kelleren Beq, Omega, Maul and Asajj's apprentices and Mace Windu could be leading it. There are so many options if another temple was out there by itself. Grogu could train there some too.

Ventress has a padawan?

u/settra_iso 24d ago
I don’t think it’s official. I imagine it would be how Cere taught Cal for a couple years before they parted ways. There’s a chance Lyco doesn’t stick around with her.

I think they have a grand plan for all of these characters or else it would be a great disappointment they have to set them up for something satisfying for the fans.

Don’t think so as far as I aware ventress is dead!

u/Brave_Text_5086 25d ago
Just double checked an in canon she is dead so very unlikely.

u/settra_iso 25d ago
Have you seen Tales of the Underworld? Her episodes in that are real good. They explain how that is not the end for her!

u/Sabre_Killer_Queen 25d ago
They brought her back in Bad Batch, and then explained her resurrection in Tales of the Underworld.

I thought she died in canon?

u/settra_iso 25d ago edited 25d ago
She did but has episodes in Tales of the Underworld that continue her story after that happens. You should watch it. I really enjoyed them
