Trivia / The Sith Resurgence

• Creator Backlash: Both Orchards have expressed regret that they didn't do anything substantial with Finn or Jannah, and tried to give them a moment of glory with their Stormtrooper Rebellion in the Naboo Kaggath as a partial recompense. They also stated that they would later go back and edit earlier chapters to try and improve Finn's characterization.
• Creator's Favorite: Of the many characters Lily Orchard has made over the years, Darth Amorosa is her favourite and fueled a shift in the works and characters she has been interested in since.
• Diagnosis of God: Darth Amorosa and Rey were both stated by Mikaila Orchard to have ADHD.
• What Could Have Been: After Rey discovers in Chapter 25 that Aliana previously worked for Niima the Hutt who enslaved her and that Darth Mayrik ran his slaves, possibly including Rey, out to different planets, she was originally going to have a big argument with Aliana after she awoke from her coma, due to her never telling Rey despite promising not to keep any more secrets from her. This would have resulted in Rey almost getting consumed by her anger and very nearly destroying her relationship with Aliana before they make up◊. Lily and Mikaila scrapped the argument idea, however, and it's revealed later in a holorecording that Mayrik despised the idea of trafficking a child and reluctantly delivered Rey to Jakku for the money. In said recording, Mayrik claimed that she would've gladly adopted Rey if she didn't know Niima the Hutt would hunt her and Aliana, coupled with the revelation that Aliana refused to do any slave-running jobs for him when she grew up.
