In part two, we discuss the Morgan Elsbeth episodes and what they’re trying to convey in the full picture of Morgan’s life.

0:00.0	The Lucasfilm Animation Anthology series is back for Tales of the Empire,
0:03.9	with six new episodes about two imperial characters, Morgan Ellsbeth and Barris Offie.
0:08.6	Join us as we dive into part two of this animated passion project.
0:32.3	Music Welcome to Sky Talkers. Here are your hosts, Charlotte and Caitlin.
0:37.4	Hello and welcome to Sky Talkers. I'm your host Charlotte. Hey everyone. I'm your other host, Caitlin, and welcome to this episode where we're talking all about Tales of the Empire,
0:42.4	which is part two, I guess we can call it, of the Tales series. We had Tales of the Jedi that came
0:49.0	out in 2022, and now we have Tales of the Empire coming out in 2024. And I'm so excited to talk about these.
0:56.1	Tales of the Jedi was an incredible project, passion project. I think is how we kind of have been
1:02.8	describing it from Dave Filoni. And the Tales of the Jedi panel at Celebration 2022, I think was one of our
1:09.6	favorite panels. I think it was our favorite. In our ranking, we ranked it as our favorite because it was so surprising. We had no idea what the deal was. And this is a really fun May the Fourth Star Wars Day surprise. I don't think a month ago, we knew that this was coming out. First of all. Yeah. I mean, we knew that we were getting a sequel to
1:28.0	Tales of the Jedi, but we didn't know it was Tales of the Empire. And just the continuation of
1:32.6	Lucasville Animation doing six-part shorts, I think, are so cool. And I feel really lucky to have them.
1:40.2	Yeah. I completely love the setup of, you know, these two characters that we get to kind of compare and contrast. And I'm really excited actually now that we have this second installment in this series to talk about the ways that, you know, Duku and Asoka made sense as a pair in Tales of the Jedi. And now Morgan and Barris how they make sense as a hair in Tales of the Empire. I really love the
2:03.1	structure of Tales of the Jedi and Tales in the Empire. So what's the next? Tales of the bounty hunter,
2:10.1	tales of, it feels likely, right? Or Sith. Yeah, it could be Tales of the Sith. Who else could we do?
2:17.1	Tales of the politician? Tales of the Sith. Who else could we do? Tales of the politician?
2:18.5	Tales of the senator.
2:20.3	What's not?
2:22.0	I don't.
2:22.4	Okay.
2:22.7	I'm just saying it could be, what if it's like a Padme and.
2:28.1	All right.
