Star Wars reveals a power more terrifying than the Dark Side, and it makes the Sith seem friendable.
Black, White & Red's latest trailer for Darth Maul reveals the Final Occultation, a dark power outside the Sith Lord that seems very horrible.
The Black, White, and Red preview of the Darth Maul deviates greatly from the usual Star Wars narrative. It emphasizes the power of the evil side to consume people—including a Sith Lord like Darth Maul. Though the preview shows Maul in a whole other light, as the victim of a power even he could not control, Maul has always been portrayed as a competent fighter and a threat to the Jedi. The sample portrays Maul as a broken figure whose past might has vanished and a victim of a force incomprehensible to him.
The Final Occultation: An Authority Outside the Sith Lords
The Final Occultation turns out to be a terrible creature that feeds on people and shapes them into its vision. It is a force outside the Sith Lords, and it seems as though even the Dark Side of the Force might be a weapon for it. The trailer features the Final Occultation as an invisible entity with its tendrils of power reaching out to influence people, whirling their thoughts and bodies. It is a power drawn on grief, doubt, and anxiety. The Final Occultation is presented as a force of complete anarchy and destruction, not only a dark power.
The Past haunts Drupal Maul.
The past haunments Maul; the preview depicts his battle to recover his former power. He is depicted in a dark area driven insane by the Final Occultation. He is shown attempting to release himself from the influence of this dark creature by underlining control of his anger and terror. According to the teaser, Maul is a victim of a power outside his control rather than really wicked.
An Enterprising New Chapter within the Star Wars Universe
Black, White & Red's preview of the upcoming series for Darth Maul points to a fresh degree of horror and fear for the Star Wars universe. One should take great care with the Final Occultation since its might might even surpass that of the Sith Lord. The trailer suggests that in his frantic struggle for survival Maul might become a hero. It's an interesting concept that the likelihood of Darth Maul changing from evil to hero could be the secret to thwarting the Final Occultation. Black, White, and Red promises from Darth Maul to be an interesting and horrible addition to the Star Wars universe.
