9 Star Wars Cliffhangers We'll Never Get The Answer To

9. Arla Fett (Boba's Long Lost Aunt) Has Her Memory Wiped And Disappears

Introduced during the Jango Fett: Open Seasons comic book written by Haden Blackman, Arla Fett - the older sister of Jango - was actually once assumed dead after Death Watch attacked her family home on Concord Dawn during the Mandalorian Civil War. 

However, it was later revealed that she was captured and ultimately became an assassin for Death Watch before being arrested and thrown into a mental institute on Coruscant. She'd stay there for years and was heavily sedated to stop her from killing herself because of the guilt she felt over working with the group who had killed her family, but was eventually freed by Jedi/Mandalorian Bardan Jusik in the Republic Commando novels. 

In the end, Jusik would wipe a tormented Arla's memory. And that was all Karen Traviss wrote, ending this Fett's story on a bit of a cliffhanger.

With Traviss never getting to officially conclude the Republic Commando series after she backed away from the project due to continuity changes made in The Clone Wars animated series, Arla's fate was left largely up in the air.

And while those desperately wanting to learn what officially happened to Arla next were at least given a few interesting bullet points from Traviss that explained where she roughly thought the characters were going - Arla would have married Jusik and forgotten she was ever "Arla Fett" after her memory wipe - that still doesn't technically count as an official conclusion to her story. 

Star Wars has shown a willingness to incorporate elements from the Legends continuity more and more of late, but the chances of Boba Fett's auntie showing up, meeting her nephew, and explaining where she'd been in the new canon after all these years still feels slim at best - especially after the flop that was The Book of Boba Fett.
