Revolt in an Imperial prison

Canon Linked from 15 articles

In 3 BBY during the Imperial Era, imprisoned revolutionaries Ephraim and Mira Bridger organized a revolt in an Imperial prison. The Bridgers, who had been imprisoned years earlier for broadcasting anti-Imperial messages on Lothal, were inspired to organize the attempt after they heard their son, Ezra Bridger, transmit a message of rebellion across the galaxy. Dozens of prisoners escaped, including former Lothal Governor Ryder Azadi, but the Bridgers themselves were killed. After escaping, Azadi made his way into the Lothal wilds to find Ezra, and he told the boy what happened to his parents.
