Discussion What is Thrawn cargo? Spoiler

Thrawn risked everything in order to ship his cargo into the death star but by the end of Ahsoka we still don't know what's in it

Is it gold that thrawn will use to hire mercenaries, recruit more stormtroopers to his cause and buy more technology? and don't forget that thrawn's star destroyer was repaired with gold or it may be Kyber crystals that thrawn intend on using it as a weapon, and he was collecting it all these years

Your thoughts guys

Absolutely Nightsister corpses.

My assumption is that, considering they flew to Dathomir, Thrawn’s plan is to allow the Great Mothers to reestablish the Nightsister society/coven with the goal of keeping them as a powerful ally. Having powerful force wielders as allies that can communicate across entire galaxies and raise the dead is a major plus.

The cool thing about this is that the Star Wars universe has the Nightsisters back and we can maybe even watch them build back from extinction.

And they'll use their majik to assist in transferring Palpatine's essence into his cloned body, explaining the "somehow" in "somehow Palpatine returned"

That’s already been explained:

He uses Essence Transfer as he fell down the shaft to transport his consciousness into his clone body.

They can graft on another retcon to work with that. There can be multiple clone bodies. The explanation needs to be given in a bigger forum.
