Description

In the mandalorian season 2 episode 7 we went to morak to learn the location of moff Gideon’s ship. In doing so, we saw this quick one second image on screen of where he is in the galaxy. I spent the last several hours trying to figure out where exactly this could be and I’ve narrowed it down to all possible places that he could be heading according to each direction the triangle could be pointing and how it fits in with canon and legends to maybe give us an idea of where he’s going and where the season finale could end.
Narshadda was the moon revolving around Nal hutta basically coruscant’s underworld full of crime and violence, except the entire planet, added to that it was filled with smog and trash. It was the top spot for the Hutt’s to do their business.
During 10 ABY, which is exactly the time we are in, during legends, Leia and Han Solo were on this planet and ran into a lot of trouble. This is also the planet where Leia gets her ancient lightsaber from an old survivor of Order 66, vima da boda.
On the planet, Boba Fett is also waiting for Solo as he hunts him down. I think if Moff Gideon is going here, we could see Leia and Han again, and Boba will maybe stop his mission with Mando to seize Solo. I could see Gideon having a base here for the child to extract his blood and transfuse it with the host or hosts that he may have. The end of the season could end with a clone body of some new species powerful in the force waking up, or, it could be a clone of someone we know, like Darth maul, Luke, Anakin, or a young palpatine, perhaps.
Let’s say it’s not nar shadda, then he could be going downwards towards Daalang.
The Now if he goes to Daalang, it would land him on a hyperspace route to Kamino. This, of course, is the hub for cloning and where the clones were created. This would make the most sense as we know there’s a huge cloning project going on with the season revolving around harvesting the child’s blood rich in a high midichlorian count, or in other words, high force energy count. Who knows what memories returning to the cloning facility will spike for Boba. Maybe we’ll see the old kaminoans once again. Now in the plagueis novel, the kaminoans were trying to clone other beings, some with shovels for hands for digging and mining. They were experimenting with abominations, however they realized human clones were much easier and straight forward to create. In the vats we saw in the Mando episode 4, one looked like a zabrak in the concept art, and another like a twi-lek, could that be talon, perhaps? George Lucas, allegedly, wanted to make the sequels to have maul train a young apprentice named Darth talon, with Luke gathering students and survivors from order 66. Could this show take us through that journey until the sequels?
Now further down, we see another planet and this could be Vandor, which in legends is another imperial outpost where they captured Lando and the Falcon. I don’t see the significance of this place, but not every place has to be a place of old or to remind us of nostalgia. It can be a new world, which is cool too.
If he’s not headed to those locations, then he’s going to what I think is Hapes near Onderron. Hapes was an inner rim planet They manufactured starship components. This is where Dr. Aphra, the archaeologist hired by Vader after episode 4, got some of the parts necessary for her ship, the ark angel. Elsbeth has a connection to ships built an industry that helped build the imperial starfleet.
All locations point towards seeing some characters from the original or prequel trilogy, so I think going to Nar Shadda is probably the most likely, and if not, then Kamino. I feel like the remnants of the Empire can do what they want more freely on such a crime infested world without laws like Nar Shadda. Also seeing Han Solo and Boba together will surely make the mission go sideways, that is, if they want to stick with legends and if this is at that exact moment in time.
