We had so many conversations...around how to ensure that Osha's path ultimately felt autonomous. We wanted to showcase the delicious seduction that everyone loves about the dark side of the Force while also making it very clear that this is a young woman...who is presented with options and chooses one.

[...W]hat we really honed in on was [Osha and Qimir] having these traumatic pasts and experiences that shaped them to feel like outsiders and to crave something else. I think that really is why Star Wars is so universally allegorical. We are all presented with variables in life and it's the way that we respond to those variables that defines us. I think there's always been so much intrigue into the dark side of the Force for that reason. And here the emotional core of it is that these two people don't have a place that they belong and they don't have many others to identify with, but they find that in each other.
