where were K'Kruhk and T'ra Saa all this time?

OK, is this gonna be revealed in a future comic, or did I just miss something? Where WERE these two all throughout the GCW, YVW, and GCW2?

 

I'd love to see this as a novel.

 

You and 2ndQuest both.

 

It's kind of a long story. You see, K'kruhk had this freaking sweet hat...

 

Wasn't K'Khruk killed by Grievous in the Clone Wars animated (2d, boit the current series) inside a Starship that had crashed, I thought I read that somewhere...?

Daft-Vader

 

I tend to think they've been in Luke's order for a while, probably just prior to NJO, in the background of course.


I too would love to see a Dark Times-set novel about this. Legacy's said that Tholme died shortly after the Rise of the Empire, so it'd be cool to se a novel or comic set shortly after Episode 3, with two seperate plots: K'khruk getting to the Hidden temple with his apprentice, and T'ra Saa, Tholme, Quinlan and the rest getting to the temple from Kashyyk.

 

Yea, but he got better...

 

No. Supposedly, Whipids ( Kruhk'ks Species) Have the ability to put themselves into a meditative state if they get injured, and regrow certain parts of themselves.

 

He's like the Doctor from Doctor Who.

 

The hat stinks. There... I said it. Dang wannabe Yoda.

 

T'ra Saa's species have a history of going to sleep and popping up at radnom moments.

My personal fanon would be that Ood Bnar's sapling found her.


The Force Unleashed Campaign Guide makes no mention of Whipids having a healing trance but does give them 250 year+ lifespans. I don't know if that's a retcon or not.

There's always the possibility that K'Kruhk met up with the New Jedi Order years before the Vong War and was just never on screen. It's not like he would be the only Jedi whose never done anything.

 

Maybe we'll find out about them in the forthcoming FOTJ novels. But if K'Kruhk actually says, "See, I had this freaking sweet hat", I can't tell how many of us will die laughing. And I mean that literally.

 

The Jedi humbled themselves before the Sith and buried their heads in the snow/sands of remote worlds. At least that's what Palapatine said.

 

T'ra Saa basically curled up in a corner of the Galaxy, literally, and sat things out in Neti tree form. She's obviously got serious issues with mourning and getting over loss in any normal time period, but apart from that her absence is pretty clear cut and easily explained. Not much for a book there.

K'Kruhk I think has more storytelling potential. I am not against him just sitting in the background as a member of the NJO from the beginning. However, I would find it a bit funny that he'd have been passed over for the Jedi Council all the time Luke was around, yet manages to end right back on the front benches come Legacy.

On that basis, I'd rather there be more to his absence. Shoot him off on Outbound Flight 2, or in a sleeper pod to the dwarf galaxy, or some other bizzare trip gone wrong that saw him return a la Vergere to discover a Galaxy quite unlike the one he remembered. Whatever... but make a story out of it. Council-to background-back to Council just feels a bit too convenient.

 

My personal theory is K'kruhk started his own Jedi Academy out in the Unknown regions, building up Jedi to eventually take down The Empire. Out of contact with the Galaxy proper, he didn't know that Palpy had been taken down until Luke and Ben (or maybe just Ben, or even Kol) find them sometime between MILLENIUM FALCON and Cade's birth.

I would really hate that. It would diminish Luke terribly and make his most important role, that of restoring the Jedi Order, totally irrelevant and unnecessary. All of Luke's struggles to bring the Jedi back to the galaxy would have been for naught basically, especially since his Jedi Order is purged at the beginning of Legacy.

 

Luke rendered T'ra Saa mentally retarded when he botched transplanting her. Fortunately, Neti can re-grow their 'brain' cells... unfortunately, this takes quite a bit of time.

 

I highly doubt he has been a part of Luke's jedi order since before the NJO, in fact I don't think Luke or any of his jedi even know about K'khruk as of Millenium Falcon. It would not suprise me at all to see K'khruk show up at some point in the fate of the jedi series.

 

There was an Ent in YJK? Who?

 

Not necessarily. I'm just theorizing that Luke's order has what, maybe two hundred Jedi? K'Kruhks could be maybe half that. It would be Luke's order absorbing new recruits, like when Luke accepted Dathomiri and Jensarri into the order. But with even less problems since they are already Jedi.

 

That is almost too convenient.
