- Title: Star Wars: Tales of the Empire – The Path of Fear
- wiki: link
Star Wars Sunday takes us back to the second episode in the three-episode arc filling in the backstory of jump forward to a disillusioned Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto) working for the Empire as the magistrate of Corvus who at this point are already bristling under her control and inability to make good on the promises she made to locals.
In terms of tying in to larger storylines, “The Path of Anger” is notable Morgan being recruited by Captain Pellaeon (Xander Berkeley) and Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen). Although the use of Rukh (Warwick Davis) feels like a pretty awkward means to assess the woman’s motivations and loyalties, more effective are the conversations between Morgan and the first two Imperials who genuinely see something in her others have obviously missed.
