They see everything. Visions, dreams, glimpses of what might be. In this episode, we dive into the prophecies, omens, and haunting warnings being passed around like whispered gossip. But seeing the future doesn’t mean you can change it—sometimes, it only means you know what’s coming. And that knowledge? It can break you. As the galaxy braces for wh…

Let’s get uncomfortable, shall we? This episode pushes us past the edges of Jedi jurisdiction, into territories where law is a suggestion and ideology reigns supreme.

What happens when truth becomes subjective? In this episode, we dive deeper into the philosophy of the Force—who owns it, who protects it, and who dares to say it should be left alone.
