Grazazeb Orrelios, or Zeb as he's known to us is a hero of the Rebellion and last of the Lasat, or so we thought.
Intro
Zeb has long believed that he he is the last of his species but a brand new episode of Rebels has proven him wrong. The episode is entitled "legacy of lasan" shows that Zen is most definitely not the last of his kind and to understand why that's huge! We have to understand what happened to the Lasat.
After the fall of the republic, the Empire began expanding it's control over many planetary systems. Those political parties which were loyal to the Empire stayed in power. Those who weren't willing to submit to the absolute dictatorship of the empire were removed from power. This often ended with the former power being murdered.
On Zeb's home planet of Lasan things went bad and I mean really bad. The Empire created a Genocide of the Lasat. The Empire used T-7 disruptor guns to murder many many thousands. The T-7 disruptor was designed to be used on vehicles and it's effects on organic matter were so horrible that the senate banned it's use on infantry combat.
All of these atrocities Zeb not only witnessed but was also victim of. This explains Zeb's emotional duality between joy and sadness when he meets two new Lasat. They remind him of his of his former place of honor as Captain of the honor guard and of his former life before the Empire.
In this episode our Rebels help the Two Lasat reach there new home world and while possibly being tempted to join them, Zeb knows that his real home is with our Rebels. Support me and get sweet rewards! -
