Could this be why Yoda chose a swamp surrounded by flora and fauna to retire to?”Matthew from Toronto writes in “you and Bryan were talking about Captain Pellaeon trying to clarify where he was at the end of Rebels. In that last episode of Rebels, Captain Pellaeon is on a Star Destroyer that is part of the blockade out in space, while Grand Admiral Thrawn is on a different Star Destroyer directly in the atmosphere of Lothal above the Capital City.
