Love the coverage! Ok, now a little bit of speculation:
To me, the word “Qimir” looks to be a cognate of
chimaera. Per Greek mythology, chimaera is a mythical beast that can “breathe FIRE”. It looks like a lion, with a GOAT’s head protruding from its back. In other depictions, it also has a snakes head. The name implies deception, and also strength/evil/danger.
So far the names in the acolyte seem to have specific implications that shed more light on the plot.
Sol : sun in Latin
Jecki lon~ lun(a) : moon in Latin
Yord Fandar ~ jord : earth in old Norse
Mae~ maestitia : dullness, gloom, sadness, sorrow and grief in Latin
Osha~ usha : bright, dawn, shining, burning in Sanskrit
Torbin ~ Þor-björn: thunder-bear in Norse
(Invokes a ferocious fighter- the scarring and him taking the barash vow are consistent with that)
And finally
Qimir ~ chimaera : sneaky (?), dangerous (?)
Either Qimir may have played a role in the twin’s past (with the fire theme) or is the source of conflict (lion in the shape of a goat).
I’m pretty sure the actual dark lord (the Sith master) is not in the first season. It’s heavily implied by headland that the dark force user in the promos and the first episode is the sith APPRENTICE. This tells me, either that Qimir is the Sith apprentice masquerading as another acolyte with Mae, or is indeed an acolyte with higher standing with the sith.
Thanks for sharing all the languages and roots, really informative!
I think the sith wants mae to kill these Jedi without weapons for specific reasons. My head canon is that this is a test of skill- to see how much power an apprentice or an acolyte can extract from rage and passion alone. I think the Sith Lord of this show (who probably is the apprentice-not the master) wants Mae to harness the dark side through vengeance.
My gut tells me his machinations are a product of him wanting Mae to sever all connection to the light, and his curiosity about Mae and osha- who would make a better apprentice.
Good ideas!
