The Masters are among some of the most powerful…

Star Wars finally explained why lightsabers are Jedi weapons when anyone can actually use them. The lightsaber is traditionally associated with Force-sensitives like the Jedi or the Sith, which has always seemed quite strange; in reality it is just another type of weapon, and Lightsabers have been used successfully by non-Force-sensitive people on occasion.

The recently published Lucasfilm film Star Wars: The High Republic – Lightsaber Collection finally explains the truth. According…
