I don’t think we talk enough about how good Tales of the Underworld is.
What I really like is the storytelling—it gives you just enough to immerse yourself in the narrative while leaving room for interpretation. At the beginning of the first episode, we witness the magical side of the Star Wars galaxy. Like in every fairy tale, there’s a condition for the miracle: a special place, something valuable in return, and a restriction that, if broken, would break the spell.
It’s not even important to know how Ventress fell in love with Quinlan Vos in Dark Disciple. Only one thing matters—what does "heart’s desire" truly mean?
At first, I thought the spell had erased her love for Quinlan. But seeing her constantly searching for clues leading to the Hidden Jedi Path made me doubt that. By the end of the third episode, I realized the true condition of the spell: they are doomed never to meet again. Subconsciously, she understands this. Her hesitation isn’t just caution—it’s a way to avoid getting close to the one she loves. If she breaks the condition, she will likely die.
The writers’ decision to bring her back but deny her love feels poetic. Nothing in life comes without a price.
It’s worth mentioning her companion, the young Padawan Lyco Strata. Honestly, I don’t see them as a typical "parent and child" duo. Unlike Omega’s dependence on Hunter or Grogu’s on Din, Lyco isn’t entirely reliant on Ventress. He survived without her before, and while he obviously needs her help now, it’s more like any adult in his situation would. He’s quick-thinking, adaptable, and fiercely determined to live. It’ll be interesting to see how their relationship develops.
It would be hilarious if he became Asajj’s apprentice. The Jedi in the Force would feel vindicated for all the trouble she caused during the Clone Wars.
"Place where all stars born" Master Qui-Gon Jinn and padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi trowelling near stars cauldron. For @kyber-erso as a part of May the 4th exchange
The Slice of Life This one was made as a part of February exchange for @Purpuddle . The prompt was so tempting, so I had a lot of pleasure to work with it! So here are Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi on some backwater planet, in the alleyway of big market enjoying their food, while the Life Tragedy unraveling in front their eyes. Little aleena chief standing against gang of tookas. Suppose on some point Jedi mediation will be needed! ---------- As for a piece itself, that was quite a challenge. But I’m proud how it went.
Today is a 99th birthday of Sir Christopher Lee. And this year I want to celebrate properly! Let the Force always be with you! our tall dark and handsome!
Thing that have to be just a portrait study, ended up as a Rael Averross portrait. Rael, first padawan of Jedi Dooku according to disney book Master and Apprentice by Claudia Grey. While I’m not a fan of this book at all. And I’m stuck with Legends and my oun headcanons on characters. To draw Dev Patel as Rael was quite funny. So here is rogue Jedi from the disney universe
This one was commissioned by dear Purpuddle Obi-Wan Kenobi after the RotS but before New Hope. Man haunted by war, treachery and exterminations of his kind. But there is still hope in the Galaxy. And he will do what he must to protect this little flame.
