Bill was sitting on a massive throne elevated from the floor inside the giant pyramid. On the floor, multiple beings were having a party and tormenting multiple humans, lifting them into the air and dropping them only to catch them when they're mere inches from the ground.

"Alright everyone, settle down!" Bill said, "Great work on the global conquest, guys. Now that this planet is ours, we can move on to bigger and better targets: the entire galaxy!"

"Um," said a monster with 8balls for eyes, "how? We need a ship to leave the system."

Bill began laughing, "No we don't, 8 Ball. I took the liberty of allowing all of you to survive in space without spacesuits and to travel without a hyperdrive. Think of yourselves as mutant purgill."

The monsters all laughed. Bill created a portal to the kuiper belt.

"Now go!" He said, "conquer the Grysk! Bring the Chiss to their knees! Slaughter the Gungans! Turn Mustafar into a sandy oasis!"

The monsters flew through the portal toward the edge of the kuiper belt.

"Ah, now this is conquest." He said, "Once the Unknown Regions fall, the rest of the galaxy should be simple. Heh heh, I can't wait to see the look on old crinkled Palpatine's face when I go to Coruscant and show him what real power--"

He heard something boing. He looked at the portal and saw his minions floating back toward him.

"WHAT!?!" he shouted.

He flew through the portal towards the edge of the kuiper belt. He reached out his hand and he found himself touching some form of shield. He shot lightning out of his hand and saw the ripples go all around the system.

"Hmmm," he said, "something about this seems pre-planned."

"I think I'm dying," 8 ball said.

"Walk it off!"

Ezra was still searching for a way back to the shack through the eyes when he felt it. Something rippled around the entire system twice. He felt it again. Longer that time.

"Sabine, Ezra," Hera said through the comms, "where are you?"

"On the other side of the eyes," Sabine said, "I don't see any way through."

"Kanan--" Ezra began.

"I sense it too." he said, "Something's keeping him in."
