Here ’s everything we know about The Acolyte ’s cast and the characters they will be portraying in Star Wars ' most mysterious undertaking yet .
8Mae’s Fire Should Not Have Spread That Quickly In The Acolyte Episode 3
Several Factors Prove The Fire Should Have Been Relatively Contained
The first collection of hints that Mae ’s flak did not do Brendok ’s downfall stems from simple logical system . As has been note by several characters , it is believed that Mae ’s flaming belt down the enchantress . That tell , The Acolyteepisode 3 shows Mae starting the flack outside her and Osha ’s room . Shortly after Osha get off , the fire has spread throughout the integral fortress and the witches are dead in little to no time . For several reasons , the fire should not have scatter as cursorily as it did inThe Acolyteepisode 3 .
For starters , young Mae and Oshahave their room situate near the top of the fort , as evidenced originally in the episode when Osha is looking out of their window high above the ground . Secondly , the fortress ' foundations are in the first place build out of stone . This should have meant that the fervency was comparatively contained and diffuse much wearisome , if at all . However , The Acolyteepisode 3 shows the fervour causing wipeout in mere minutes , hinting that Mae ’s actions were not responsible for the death of the coven .
7The Bodies Of The Witches Were Not Burned Or Charred
The Acolyte Episode 3 Did Not Imply Death By Fire
Another tinge that Mae ’s fire was not creditworthy for the death of the crone is the body of the latter . As Osha is admit off from Brendok by Master Sol , a wide pellet of the dead witches is shown . The dead body of the enchantress do not indicate they were killed by the fire . They possess no burn scrape , their clothes are integral , and there is no smoldering visibleat all .
The rock room put up the witches show no sign of having been affected by the conflagration …
Another hint that the witches suffer another fate is the want of flaming itself . In the room where the witches are situate , no fervor is visible . The lighting indicates that flames are fire high-pitched up in the fort ' social organization , but the stone room housing the witch register no sign of having been pretend by the hell on earth .

6The Arrangement Of The Witches' Bodies Do Not Reflect Chaotic Death From Fire
The Witches All Lay Dead In The Same, Small Location
Stemming from the witches ' idle trunk , their arrangement also does not reflect the estimate that they were kill by Mae ’s fire inThe Acolyteepisode 3 . When the witches are encountered by Osha and Sol , all the bodies are housed in a confined location . If a sudden fire that spread speedily through the fortress had been the lawsuit of end , it stand to reason that the positioning of the bodies would have been more chaotic .
Instead , the witches are hold to a small circle in a stone way . This implies that they were kill by other way , and did not devolve victim to the ardor . When append this fact to the lack of singe marks on or around the witches ' body , the chance that they were killed by the Hell drastically dwindle .
5The Acolyte Episode 3 Hints At An Intruder In The Witches' Fortress
Koril & Aniseya Investigate Strange Noises Earlier In The Acolyte Episode 3
Moving off from the climactic moments in which the flame is burning , another element from earlier in the instalment intimation at a more personal , sinister means of death for the witches . Around nine mo intoThe Acolyteepisode 3 , Osha and Mae receive a lesson in the Force from Mother Aniseya . At the ending of the lesson , a strange creaking strait is hear by Aniseya and her partner Koril . Mae and Osha are send to their room as Koril and Aniseya investigate .
This seems to connote that someone is inside the beldame ' fortress , yet neither the scene nor its implication are mentioned again inThe Acolyteepisode 3
A shot is shown of Koril looking out into the huge Granville Stanley Hall of the fortress as nervous euphony start act . This seems to imply that someone is inside the crone ' fortress , yet neither the panorama nor its implication are note again inThe Acolyteepisode 3 .

4Mae’s Point Of View In The Acolyte Episode 3 Remains A Mystery
Future Episodes Could Reveal More About What Mae Experienced
Perhaps the freehanded tip that other forces are at work inThe Acolyteepisode 3 is the lack of Mae ’s perspective . From the firing starting onwards , only Osha ’s point of opinion is shown . The vernal missy escapes her room and emerge to retrieve everyone all in , only to run into Mae before the latter falls to her unmistakable destruction .
Between Mae leave alone Osha in her elbow room after starting the fervency and her fall from the bridge inThe Acolyteepisode 3 ’s orgasm , it is unclear what she experienced . Mae ’s peak of view could be crucial in unpack the chief mysteries of the massacreon Brendok . give that Mae grew up to be aSith Acolyte inStar Wars , she could have happen a sour force that threaten the witches in a way Osha did not see .

3Mae’s Hatred Of The Jedi Stems From Something
The Fire Caused By Mae Herself Cannot Be The Source Of Her Hatred
The actions of Mae as an grownup may provide another hint that she was not exclusively responsible for the death of the witches inThe Acolyteepisode 3 . ThroughoutThe Acolyte ’s premiere , Mae is shown to be implausibly furious at the Jedi . Her need for revenge is tangible , and she is targeting the Jedi who were stationed on Brendok when the witches were defeat .
After the outcome ofThe Acolyteepisode 3 , the source of Mae ’s choler is unclear . While it could be explained that Mae hates the Jedi as they lured Osha away and caused the fire to start indirectly - through Mae attempt to stop Osha from leaving - this seems unlikely . Instead , it could be the case that the four Jedi post on Brendok played a more direct role in the last of the witch . With Mae ’s point of view inThe Acolyteepisode 3 still unknown , it remains to be find out whether this is the cause .
2An Acolyte TV Spot Shows Unseen Moments From The Brendok Fortress
Kelnacca & Torbin Could Be The Key To The Acolyte Episode 3
Arguably the big hint that something bigger depart down on Brendok inThe Acolyteepisode 3 was not find in the episode itself . alternatively , this intimation came in a tv set spot recently free by Lucasfilm . This TV daub shows some second fromThe Acolyteepisode 3 , with one of the essence clip containing Jedi Master Kelnacca , The Acolyte ’s Wookiee Jedi , and Torbin , the victim of Mae inThe Acolyteepisode 2 .
Midway through this TV spot , Kelnacca is show looking fairly angrily at someone in the courtyard of the witch ' fort fromThe Acolyteepisode 3 . Directly after this , a time is designate depicting Kelnacca , lightsaber in hand , spring toward an unlikely aim : Torbin . This hints that a much deeper story is at play inThe Acolyteepisode 3 take the Jedi that could have lead to the witches ' deaths . These answer will not arrive to fruition until other perspectives ofThe Acolyteepisode 3 besides Osha ’s are shown .
1Torbin’s Barash Vow Hints At Darker Jedi Involvement
Torbin’s Guilt Suggests The Jedi Had A Bigger Role To Play In The Acolyte Episode 3
Finally , the last major hint thatThe Acolyteepisode 3 was not the full account came inThe Acolyteepisode 2 . In the latter installment , Torbin was shown undertake a Barash Vow . Torbin had not spoken to another person in over a decade , swerve himself off from the outside universe and giving himself over to the Force . It was afterwards confirmed that Torbin did this due to his guilty conscience ; Torbin justify to Mae and separate her that the Jedi intend they were doing the right thing , before willingly killing himself as a form of expiation .
The Acolyte introduces the Barash Vow to subsist - action , an important Jedi conclusion during the High Republic and prequel geological era of the Star Wars timeline .
From what was shown inThe Acolyteepisode 3 , nothing take place that would have rendered this amount of guilt trip in Torbin . While the visual aspect of him and the other Jedi can be argued to have indirectly lead to the end of the witches , what was shown inThe Acolyteepisode 3 was not the Jedi ’s break . None of them should experience directly shamed about what happened , yet Torbin ’s guilty conscience completely overtook him for decades after . This hints that the Jedi are more involved thanThe Acolyteepisode 3 inculpate , further support the mind that Mae was not solely creditworthy for the tragic events .
