The Book of Boba Fett

I will vanquish these interlopers who threaten our planet.

All I ask in return is that you remain neutral

if the Pyke Syndicate approaches you to betray me.

This will be acceptable.

I abide.

Do you trust them?

They are not foolish enough to see

that the Pykes would eventually take over the whole planet.

We must prepare for war.

How much treasure do we have in reserve?

I have plenty of credits. What I'm short on is muscle.

Credits can buy muscle if you know where to look.

You look lost.

I'm here for Kaba Baiz.

What makes you think he's here?

What do you want of him?

He owes someone important money.

Who?

That's not my business. I'm here to bring him in.

Well, if I see him, I'll let him know.

I see him right now.

That's not me. That doesn't even look like me.

I'm gonna give the rest of you

the opportunity to walk out that door.

I have no quarrel with you.

They're not going anywhere.

Looks to me like you're surrounded.

But you look like the practical type.

Let's discuss our options.

I can bring you in warm,

or I can bring you in cold.

Attack!

Your boss is dead.

I'm here to collect on his bounty.

I have no trouble with any of you.

There's a pile of New Republic credits in there that I have no right to.

If you do me the honor of letting me pass, you all can help yourselves

to whatever you think you deserve from your former employer.

I'd like my reward

and the information you promised.

My business is my own. Where is it?

Where is the closest access shaft to the substrata?

You can keep your reward. There's a bounty on this Klatooinian.

If you won't give me the information, someone else will.

I'd put that on ice if I were you.

Tend to him.

I didn't know if I would ever see you again.

Thank you for saving me on Nevarro.

I am sorry for your sacrifice.

There are three of us now.

We'll put you to work soon enough.

What weapon caused such a wound?

This.

Paz Vizsla, bring it to me.

All this talk of the Empire, and they lasted less than 30 years.

Mandalorians have existed 10,000.

What do you know of this blade?

I am told it is the Darksaber.

Indeed.

Do you understand its significance?

Whoever wields it can lead all of Mandalore.

If it is won by Creed in battle.

It is said, one warrior will defeat 20, and the multitudes will fall before it.

If, however, it is not won in combat

and falls into the hands of the undeserving,

it will be a curse unto the nation.

Mandalore will be laid to waste

and its people scattered to the four winds.

The hilt is of a quality of beskar I have never seen before.

It was forged over 1,000 years ago by the Mandalore Tarre Vizsla.

He was both Mandalorian and Jedi.

I have met Jedi.

Then you have completed your quest.

I have.

Then you may join our covert as we rebuild.

- This is the way. - This is the way.

This is the way.

Where did you come upon the Darksaber?

I defeated Moff Gideon.

Did you kill him?

No.

But he was sent off to the New Republic for interrogation,

and he will face justice for his crimes.

Death would have been justice for his atrocities.

This is true.

The blood of millions of our kind is on his hands.

Then he will be executed for his crimes

by the New Republic Tribunal.

We shall see.

The songs of eons past

foretold of the Mythosaur rising up to herald a new age of Mandalore.

Sadly, it only exists in legends.

Where did you come upon the beskar spear?

It was the gift of a Jedi.

It can block a lightsaber.

I used it to defeat Moff Gideon.

It can also pierce beskar armor.

Its mere existence puts Mandalorians at risk.

Mandalorian steel is meant for armor, not weapons.

Then forge it into armor.

The Darksaber is a more noble weapon for you to wield.

Have you ever heard of Bo-Katan Kryze?

Bo-Katan is a cautionary tale.

She once laid claim to rule Mandalore

based purely on blood and the sword you now possess.

But it was gifted to her and not won by Creed.

Bo-Katan Kryze was born of a mighty house, but they lost sight of the way.

Her rule ended in tragedy.

They lost their way, and we lost our world.

Had our sect not been cloistered on the moon of Concordia,

we would have not survived the Great Purge.

Those born of Mandalore strayed away from the path.

Eventually, the Imperial interlopers destroyed

all that we knew and loved in the Night of a Thousand Tears.

Only those that walked the way escaped the curse prophesized in the Creed.

Though our numbers were scattered to the winds,

our adherence to the way has preserved our legacy for the generations

until we may someday return to our homeworld.

What shall I forge?

Something for a foundling.

This is the way.

For a specific foundling.

Grogu.

He's no longer in your care. He is with his own kind now.

I want to see him, make sure he's safe.

In order to master the ways of the Force,

Jedi must forgo all attachment.

That is the opposite of our Creed.

Loyalty and solidarity are the way.

What shall I forge for the foundling Grogu?

Solus. T'ad.

Ehn. Solus.

T'ad. Ehn.

Solus. T'ad.

Ehn. Cuir.

Solus.

T'ad.

Ehn.

Cuir.

You are fighting against the blade.

It gets heavier with each move.

That is because you are fighting against the blade.

You should be fighting against your opponent.

Stand up.

Solus.

T'ad.

Ehn.

There. Feel it.

You are too weak to fight the Darksaber.

It will win if you fight against it.

You cannot control it with your strength.

I want to try again.

Persistence without insight will lead to the same outcome.

Your body is strong, but your mind is distracted.

I am focused.

The blade says otherwise.

Maybe the Darksaber belongs in someone else's hands.

Maybe.

It was forged by my ancestor, founder of House Vizsla.

And now it belongs to me.

Because you won it in combat.

That's right.

And now I will win it from you.

Do you agree to this duel, Din Djarin?

I do.

Fate has brought this blade back to my clan,

and now fate will end yours.

It is done.

Paz Vizsla, have you ever removed your helmet?

No.

Has it ever been removed by others?

Never.

This is the way.

This is the way.

Din Djarin, have you ever removed your helmet?

Have you ever removed your helmet?

By Creed, you must vow.

I have.

Then, you are a Mandalorian no more.

I beg you for your forgiveness. How can I atone?

Leave, apostate.

According to Creed, one may only be redeemed

in the living waters beneath the mines of Mandalore.

But the mines have all been destroyed.

This is the way.

Attention, please.

Flight 1020, nonstop service to Tatooine,

is now ready for boarding at gate number one.

All passengers, please proceed to the boarding area immediately.

Excuse me, sir.

You're going to have to remove your weapons.

I'm a Mandalorian. Weapons are part of my religion.

I'm sorry, sir, you can't board a commercial flight with your weapons.

If you wish to discuss this

with my supervisor, I will gladly book you on tomorrow's flight.

Fine.

I know everything that's in there.

Proceed.

Welcome to Mos Eisley.

Here.
