SPOILER Arkanis Academy

    In the episode "Vision of Hope" in season one of Rebels, Zare Leonis mentions that he's being transferred to the Imperial officer's academy on Arkanis. In the second book in the Servants of the Empire series, Servants of the Empire: Rebel in the Ranks, we learn about Project Harvester and discover that that's where the Inquisitor(s) take Force-sensitive Imperial cadets, presumably to be trained as new Inquisitors. The cover for the final book in the Servants series, Servants of the Empire: The Secret Academy has been revealed, and it sheds some light on this whole story.

    As you can see, the Lothal rebels are with Leonis on what presumably is Arkanis, most likely trying to make their way into the Arkanis Academy. It seems at some point in season two we'll be getting at least one episode where the rebels link up with Leonis once more and travel to Arkanis in an attempt to either damage or shut down Project Harvester's base of operations. The Secret Academy is set to be released October 6 of this year, so I would assume the episode(s) pertaining to it will air around the same time.

    I've got this gut feeling that not only are you right, but that in the Ghost, Rex is manning the guns like he is shown in the trailer, shooting up TIEs above a planet. Arkanis just might be that planet :D Really am looking forward to more Zare, I'm planning on reading these books, as well as hoping he becomes a part of the Rebel Alliance or continues his infiltration of the Empire on-screen to finally find his sister or something :D

    I hadn't even thought of that before, but you may be right!

    Well, it's been confirmed that the first two episodes of Rebels Season Two will premiere at New York Comic Con on October 8. This is rather strange though as it means the actual season will not premiere to the public until presumably sometime later in October, yet The Secret Academy is set to come out on October 6. Unless the book is delayed, they'll be releasing a story that will most likely also be shown in season two potentially a few weeks before it airs.

    A great layout of the academy, very welcoming with a walker pointing it's blasters at you.

    I guess it means it won't be too fleshed out. I suppose it'll focus more on Leonis traveling and living there. The front cover might be the last few pages of the book.

    You know what would be funny.... If the group enters Arkanis academy and there's a giant statue of some guy named Ren.

    That would be a big spoiler but why would it be placed there, I would like to see either one of these on display, around this Sidious did after statues on almost every planet conquered by the empire, a sign of intimidation of necessary to preserve order.

    I had heard somewhers that they are leaving the fate of Dhara (Zare's sister) to Jason Frey to flesh out in the books. The first book in the "Servants of the Empire" series showcases events not show on screen, whereas the second had some crossover with Rebels / some original book content. It will be interesting to see exactly how much crossover there is in your the 3rd title.

    That sucks. Personally, infiltrating and staying in the Empire as a Rebel has never been too expanded on, and I would have loved to have seen in on-screen. PLUS, Zare is an awesome character I really hope we see more of.
