Exegol Broadcast

Canon Linked from 26 articles

The Exegol Broadcast was a transmission broadcasting of the voice of the late Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine, who was in truth the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, was delivered across the galaxy in 35 ABY. It was a message of revenge; no longer concerned with hiding his Sith identity following his resurrection, Sidious declared that the day of the Sith was imminent, and that victory was near. At this time, the galaxy was engulfed in a war between the First Order and the Resistance, led respectively by Supreme Leader Kylo Ren and General Leia Organa.

Ren subsequently undertook a search for answers, leading him to a mission to Mustafar in search of a path to the reborn Emperor to confront this threat and secure his power.
