They’ve both got their foibles and prejudices. The darksaber didn’t seem all that important to the cult, but it’s of the utmost importance to the mainstream Mandalorians. Conversely, I feel like the cult would find Bo’s sighting of a mythosaur more important than the mainstreamers.It’s also interesting to note that the two factions define “Mandalorian” differently. For the mainstreamers, it’s genetics. For the cultists, it’s following the Way and not taking your helmet off.</blockquote>
