Beautiful and thoughtful piece of writing! I also love your idea of Star Wars in Capital Letters. It works so well.

One of my favorite parts of the episode--apart from the sheer delight of watching Grogu be Grogu--was seeing Bo-Katan's face transform as Din delved into the waters. She was shook on a spiritual level. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

The Mythosaur was a total 'holy crap' moment. I really dug how the episode played around with myth and mysticism, and let the two co-mingle. That's some Original Trilogy juice right there.
