* What were the Inquisitors doing all this time? In the game's opening, we see the Ninth Sister who acts as the first boss that ends up getting killed by Cal. But throughout the rest of the game; with the exception of Purge Troopers; the Inquisitors as a whole are nowhere to be seen. Even if you go with the argument that the majority of them were busy hunting Obi-Wan since the game apparently takes place the same year as Kenobi, You'd think that an active Jedi like Cal would be enough of a priority target that at least one Inquisitor would have been dispatched after the Mantis crew.

** I think it's a case of RightHandVersusLeftHand; the ISB, in this case Denvik, are dismissive of the Inquisitorious and want to prove that they are better at catching the surviving Jedi, so it's possible that, with Bode reporting to Denvik, he was deliberately obscuring reports of Cal to the Inquisitors so that he could catch him and discredit them.

*** Denvik also shows signs of witholding information from the Empire when he mentions that the archive invasion wasn't due for a few months. Whereas the Empire immediatly invades the archive the instant Bode informs them of it. Denvik was essentially planning to capture the largest amount of fish he could with one net.

** Additionally, there is one Jedi Council member from the High Republic era still alive who Dagan would still see as a problem: Yoda, who is well-known in and out of universe for his fundamentalist views on the Jedi Order and its code, and was almost certainly among the council members who voted to surrender Tanalorr to the Nihil. Given the extreme longevity of Yoda's species, Dagan had every reason to believe the old frog was potentially still alive and would have attempted to meddle in whatever plans he and Cal put together, or worse, turn Cal against him.

** Sadly, it's very likely Dagan had spent his time in stasis stewing in anger, resentment, and other such negative emotions that completely sucked him into the Dark Side. The very first thing he does is bleed his kyber crystal. Dagan is '''''done''''' with the Jedi Order. And there's the Doyalist explanation of "we'd have no story", since Dagan allying the Bedlam Raiders with the Hidden Path would've made the rest of the game a cakewalk, with Denvik, Vader, and possibly Bode (who might have still gone
Dark-Side-psycho) as the only real threats.

* It has to be asked: ''why'' exactly is Dagan Gera attacking Cal Kestis to begin with? Just look into Dagans' personal background: his only goal was to return to Tanalorr in order to establish a Jedi Enclave on a planet in a corner of the Galaxy that couldn't be reached through normal Hyperspace: making it an effective location for future generations of Padawans and Jedi Knights to receive training without being attacked by external forces. Then when the Nihil randomly arrived in orbit and forced the Jedi Order to retreat from Tanalorr; he wanted to stay behind and fight for the world only to be denied and betrayed by the Council of that era and left in stasis within a Bacta Tank. Cut to when Cal Kestis shows up: telling him that the Jedi Order had collapsed and the few remaining Jedi are being hunted down by the Galactic Empire and Cal wants Dagan to lead him to Tanalorr: with the hopes of bringing other surviving Jedi and Force-Sensitives to the world as well to restart their Order. Coupled with the fact that the Jedi Council that betrayed him is long dead and that Dagan had no clue Rayvis was still alive: [[MyGreatestSecondChance Cal Kestis has given Dagan Gera a second chance to fulfill his original goal]], along with the chance that this act of [[VindicatedByHistory vindication]] would grant Dagan an informal promotion to Jedi Master due to his seniority as both a surviving Jedi from the High Republic Era and as the man responsible for first discovering Tanalorr and building the Jedi Enclave there.

** I saw it as him doing it deliberately as a symbolic gesture. We learn later that he had already betrayed the Jedi before he was put in stasis, bleeding the crystal would have been his way of officially cutting ties with them.

** Bode also forgot the biggest detail of all: getting to Tanalorr required either an Abyssal Compass or the activation of the Koboh Arrays. And at that point, none of them even knew about the arrays, since no one had viewed Santari's message in full yet, though once they did, closing the path behind them would've been as easy as blowing up only one of the arrays to disable the backup method. It would've been physically impossible for the Imperials to chase them, barring Vader using his PlotArmor to blindly charge forth and stumble across a safe route.

The only dilemma would've been getting Kata off Nova Garon without being pursued, but Bode could've just come clean to Cal about his ISB affiliation and asked him to help.

** Between games he might have found that he preferred using the shorter hilt while using a single blade, especially since he would have been used to that style from his years of training. Also, if by chance he was disarmed while using a single blade, keeping it split means he has a backup available.



** Considering the number of Jedi structures on Koboh, it’s possible that the raiders had found a bunch of lightsabers left over from the High Republic era.



** Perhaps it balances the weapon better? Or Cal doesn’t want to risk switching on the second blade by mistake.



** Probably to force more power out of it. Or he was just doing a maintenance check of his lightsaber, only for his conversation with Cal to pull all of his trauma to the surface and it just bled on its own as he continued ranting. Given he was basically a Dark Jedi at that point, the fact he'd corrupted his weapon didn't matter at all to him.
