Jedi Survivor works really well as a high republic tie in because knowing the High Republic adds all this extra context. The Nihil attack on Tanalor was one of the many attacks on temples that happened in Fallen Star (although confusingly it says that an Emergence devastated the moon and stone spires, but if it happened during the Great Disaster, the Jedi wouldn't have been trying to build a bastion against the Nihil. I guess the Nihil could have arranged for another one to happen, makes more sense if it wasn't a coincidence). The Nihil didn't steal a hyperspace compass, Mari San Tekka gave them a Path before she died, meaning the decision that turned Dagan to the dark side was made on bad information. It also tells us how Dagan got through the Abyss. He's a natural hyperspace navigator. It's probably just as crowded as a dense patch of Chaos. None of that information (although maybe the last one will be revealed later in the game) is necessary to follow the story.

Merrin: Blood orphans…

Cal: NO blood orphans… I, uh, don’t know what that is 😬

(I saw a version of this done by @laelish and wanted to do a Jedi Survivor version!)

the whole rule about jedi not marrying & not having children isnt because those are seen as paths to the dark side, its because those kinds of relationships are the biggest source of fear in the entire galaxy. and letting yourself bend to your fear is the first step on the path towards the dark side. with how many jedi there were, it wouldve been impossible to individually check in on and monitor any jedi who chose to have a family, so it was better to just enforce the rule of no attachments.

like kata said— her father only began to change when her mother died, because bode started letting his fear of losing kata control his actions. he was terrified of losing his entire family again, like he lost the order. thats when he began turning to the dark side, when he allowed his fear to cloud his judgement. he stopped thinking of kata as her own person, but more of a special item he possessed. as if he could just put her on a shelf or tuck her away into a box and hide her to keep for himself.

because he was not thinking about kata’s life & future when he took her to tanalorr. he wanted her safe but wasn’t taking her happiness into account. what if she got sick or injured and needed a doctor? what about her schooling? or friends? did he expect her to just… grow up completely alone, with only her father as company? she was already scared and lonely even after just a few hours of being on tanalorr.

its actually heartbreaking that in the post-story game, when she’s living with cal and merrin and greez, kata seems so much… brighter. responsive. not happy, per say, but she’s not scared and she’s not lonely. she talks about learning to cook from greez and learning botany from pili and how she thinks its funny that people are scared of merrin and sings a song her mother taught her and doesn’t even ask about her dad.

in bode’s desperation to make sure kata was safe, he neglected to realize that she had her own thoughts and feelings and opinions. he forgot that she wasnt just a blank slate for him to project onto. he forgot that she was a real person and not just a doll. the way he talks about her sounds so sweet at first, but after the betrayal… the way bode says “my little girl” feels almost exactly the same as anakin saying padmé’s name in ROTS.

"And when the Empire comes... will you be able to protect my little girl?"

Some sketch ideas of the inevitable time when Cal will have to protect Kata.

Post-credits seems to be HEAVILY hinting that Cal's next adventure will be fatherhood
