As Yoda attempts to prevent a huge threat to the Jedi Order, he turns to Dark Jedi Azlin Rell - not realizing how deep into the Dark Side he's fallen.
While the Sith may be Star Wars' abiding villains, there are others whose acts of evil are just as vicious - among them, Dark Jedi. As fans get a look back at the Jedi at the height of their power, a devastating Dark Jedi attack is revealed - one for which Yoda is at least partly to blame.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In Charles Soule, Ibraim Roberson, Fernando Sifuentes and Travis Lanham's Star Wars: The High Republic - Shadows of Starlight #1, Yoda welcomes the dark Jedi Azlin Rell back into the Jedi's good graces. Yoda believes that Azlin can help the Order combat the ongoing threat of the Nameless, and also speculates that he can redeemed from his past crimes.
However, Azlin has ventured further into the Dark Side than Yoda knows, and uses the Force to carry out a horrifying attack on Travyx Prime, crashing the patrol cruiser Galliance into the planet. Azlin's motives are sincere - he sees the Nameless as an immense threat, and the attack as a vital way to cut off the Jedi's enemies from ever accessing the deadly Force-eating predators.
While the Sith are often seen as simply adherents of the Dark Side, they are actually a very specific cult with precise beliefs and rituals. When he's introduced to the Council, Azlin argues that his disagreements with the Jedi don't place him in the same class as the Sith, insisting that just because he strayed from the light side doesn't make him an outright enemy of the Jedi.
This is a dark lesson for Yoda. Azlin Rell's status as a Dark Jedi clearly gave Yoda hope that he could be brought back to the light. Seeing him as a potential asset and someone who could be redeemed, Yoda gave him access to all the tools and knowledge he needed to kills thousands - literally, since Yoda pulled many memories out of Azlin's scrambled mind, including the importance of Travyx Prime.
