Watching episode 5 of Obi-Wan Kenobi will make you understand more about the backstory of Reva and how she came to be what she is right now. In fact, she was the product of Order 66 as she saw her friends getting slaughtered by Anakin in the Jedi Temple when she was just a youngling. This also allowed her to develop her rage for Kenobi, who she thought could’ve prevented Anakin from slaughtering the younglings. So, where was Obi-Wan Kenobi during Order 66?
Obi-Wan Kenobi was at Utapau during Order 66 as he had just defeated General Grievous and brought the end to the Clone Wars. Right as he was about to lead the attack on the remaining forces, Order 66 was initiated. He got shot out of his giant lizard but survived to escape Utapau and rendezvous with Bail Organa.
The thing that Reva didn’t understand was the fact that Kenobi wasn’t in the position to stop Anakin because he was away on a separate mission. There was no way for him to stop his former Padawan from slaughtering the younglings in the Jedi Temple during Order 66 because he was physically unable to. So, with that, let’s look at where Obi-Wan was during Order 66.
Why Is Reva Angry At Obi-Wan?
Early in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, one of the things that we saw was the fact that Reva was viciously hunting the Jedi Master during his exile and was so intent on finding him that he was willing to do anything to get to Kenobi. She seemed like a vicious mad dog that simply wanted to go after the biggest bone in the galaxy so that she could rise in power and become the new Grand Inquisitor.
At first, this seemed in line with the way that Jedi who have fallen over to the Dark Side would think. Dark Side Force users tend to be power-hungry, and that seemed to be the case for Reva because she was so ambitious that she was willing to do anything to get her hands on Kenobi and get closer to Vader. But that really wasn’t her end goal.
During the events of episode 5 of Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Empire had the Path trapped in their base as they were about to break through the barricade. Obi-Wan and Reva had the chance to talk. That was when Kenobi told her about his hunches about who she was, considering that the only way she could’ve known that Anakin was Vader was if she was there during Order 66. Read More...
