You missed connections to old Kotor/Old Republic lore. Namely a compendium of Sith war-beasts including the Tuk'ata, a mention of the Miraluca world of Katarr and the seers who are said to dwell there (That was the world Darth Nihilus devoured, and where Visas Marr is from in Kotor 2).
The Great Houses of Serenno are taken right from the Agents of the Empire comic as well: Malvern, and Borgan in particular. They also recanonize the marks of contact, showing Master Dooku teach them to younglings: Cho mai, Cho sun, Sai cha, Shiim, Sai Tok, Sun Djem, and Mou Kei. At least one of the Youngling Clans mentioned in this book came from The Jedi Path sourcebook. And one of the cities mentioned on Serenno came from the Darth Bane Trilogy. There is lots of little goodies in here for Legends fans.
@@pandaemonaeonaeon I honestly don't think that we have much more about Dooku in canon as of right now. There is his issue in the Age of Republic comic series, a couple issues in the recently completed Yoda comic miniseries, I heard that there are some mentions in the book Padawan too (I haven't read it myself). The three episodes of Tales of the Jedi are the biggest exploration of his character that we currently have other than Jedi Lost. As for Legends, I'm not really familiar with stories relevant to Dooku, although I know there are some.
The Ritual of the Three is a ritual of the "ancient Jedi" where one wraps some kind of bandages with symbols on them (can't remember if it was mentioned what they're made of) around their arm and together with two other people (I dunno if it necessarily has to be three people, but the name implies it) stand in a circle and recite an incantation to cleanse oneself of the influence of the dark side and restore balance to one's mind. Lene Kostana, Syfo-Dias and Dooku use it to purify themselves after being tainted by the dark side and psychologically distraught by horrible visions of the future they were forced to experience while being captured by some obscure tribe of dark-side witches. The bandage still retains its protective properties long after the ritual, as Dooku secretly wears it for some time afterwards. He then removes it to nurse his sister's injuries during the battle of Serenno as "she needs it more than I do" or something. I think if he had still worn the bandage during his final confrontation with his tyrant brother, he would have been protected against the influence of the evil dragon thingy and wouldn't have fallen to the dark side completely - at least not yet. [Possible spoiler] Which I find kinda ironic since in the end he kills her anyway. lol
Finished this last week. Listening to this book on audible is the best.. Such a great voice cast.. these books are one of my favorite things about Star Wars Legends or Canon.. doesn't matter.
A couple things I noticed: Convors, which were prominent in Rebels showed up. Also, there's a callback to "Beast Control" from KotoR II, which is explained to be an incorrect term as the Jedi don't actively control animals.
When Dooku is attending his mother's funeral, he mentioned seeing a recruitment poster for the Trade Federation. This exact poster is showcased in the "in universe" reference book Star Wars Propaganda.
He probably, "missed," alot of stuff lol this video would be WAY longer if he included every character and creature there is, no matter how obscure. He literally says, "I'm sure I missed a few details because it's harder to remember everything when you can't read it." {SMH}
@@3710stormwolf When was Katarr mentioned approximately? Damn, I just finished the audio book and I already feel like I have to listen to it once again. ;D
Very nice Video. Could you make a Video soon about the whole Story of the audiobook and if we get to see exactly what made dooku leaving the Jedi order? I am very interessted to hear more about that.
I feel confidant that Sifo-Dyas’ first vision is him seeing the destruction of Alderaan. He said the sky was falling and was on fire and that the planet wasn’t far from their location
But dont they literally see his exact vision a few scenes later of the agro planet? The floating hospital crashes down and si confirms this is what he had seen.
I was so satisfied with connectiob between Dooku: Jedi Lost and the films, The Clone Wars. I'm also looking forward to seeing the connection to the High Republic
When you listed the "Lost Jedi" you forgot one more person.There it was said that Yoda is standing in front of the bust of Keeve Trennis. We know her from the High Republic
Honestly, I would love it if you made a video about the Sith War-beasts of Canon and the Sith Abominations of Legends, so there could be lore told of the Tuk'ata, Gundarks, Silooth, Terentateks etc. without having to read it somewhere.
Yeah, I admit, I'm a bit disappointed that his surname is also the name of his home planet. Just because I would have preferred that they just came up with a surname. But hey, in the Middle Ages, the nobility had a habit of naming things after their families, so it doesn't bother me that much. At least Padme's last name isn't Naboo.
So Dooku is definitely the count’s first name, unlike in Legends where they show relatives of his with “Dooku” as their last name. Until I am told otherwise, we just got his full name like we did with Sheev Palpatine: Dooku Serenno, his family name is so important that it is also the name of his homeworld. Along with Gora Serenno and Jenza Serenno.
It does seem like it. What in Legends was House Dooku is now House Serenno, with Dooku being the first name rather than a family name. But I might have to listen to the audio book again to be sure.
I have a thought on why Ahch-To is not mentioned in this Book. Mind you this is theoretical. Since it is stated that the “Original” Jedi Temple is on Ossus, I suspect that is slightly false and my reasoning being that there is more than one “Original”. Ahch-To, I believe, housed the Original Concepts of the Jedi Order in which it’s duty was to maintain Balance of the Force. The Rule of Three concept makes perfect sense in this situation and may have brought forth the rise of the Sith. As more Sith appeared, Ahch-To and it’s Temple was comprised so in order to protect it , the Ahch-To was abandoned and “New” Temples were built in order to protect the evolving Jedi Order. One of those Temple’s was Ossus and another, I think would be, Jedha. From there on, Ahch-To was erased, so to speak, from all records whether it be Ship Logs or Archives much like how Kamino was removed. Again this is all theoretical, what are your thoughts @Star Wars Explained
It seems unlikely that Dooku's family line wouldn't have branched in however many generations came before him providing plenty of cousins to inherit his title.
In Agents of the Empire he has a nephew through his brother. Adan was raised on Alderaan after Dooku reclaimed his title. There were a lot of references to that comic in the play, though Ramil is never said to have a son that doesn't mean he doesn't.
@@kylemohs8728 well the only canon information we have is that chrodber was the new count of serenno by 10BBY but we dont know if he is a relative of house serenno.
@@alberto2141 Yes, I am aware. Considering the planet is named after them I would expect he is of House Serenno but since so little is known of it in that time period anything is possible.
Also, Dooku got the name Tyrannus from one of the statues of the lost 20 that Yoda was looking at as he told the padawans of who they were. It was actually a female’s name
In chapter five they say that Padawan Tyrodin is from the time of ‘The High Republic’. I don’t remember hearing the name ‘High Republic’ before. Is this a new time period or does it just refer to the ‘Old Republic’?
Does anybody know if this audio story will be available in print like other short stories have been in SW Del Rey paperbacks? Im one of those people that prefer to read stories rather than listen to them.
I know you've said several times you like the idea of the whole 9 movie saga being about this one family (Skywalkers) and how they impacted the galaxy and that episode 9 should show how the sequel trilogy is about their legacy. What do you think of the view that some are putting out there (now that Sidious is in 9) that the whole saga is really Palpatine's story? This article at screen rant explains it well: screenrant.com/star-wars-9-hero-emperor-palpatine/ Also do you think this was really all part of his grand plan? Love you guys!
@@Burning-Twilight Yes Plageuis was dead long before 32 BBY it is stated in “Star Wars Galactic atlas” Also wookipedia which may or may not be official states that Darth Maul was acquired by Sidious sometimes after Darth Plageuis was assassinated
Chancellor Finis Valorum was first mentioned in, "The Phantom Menace," not the, "Darth Plageus," book. {The, "Darth Plageus," book wasn't even published until after the prequel trilogy.} 👍
So Dooku's name is now Dooku Serenno? Interesting as wasn't Dooku the last name of his family in Legends? So I'm guessing Dooku is now his first name instead of Legends where it was his last name.
