Just before that aforementioned T-6 shuttle docked on Home One during episode one of Ahsoka, the New Republic got in touch with Tano and Huyang and let them know that there had been "an incident."

But it's the codename the voice on the other end of the line uses that is arguably more interesting than the reason for the unexpected transmission.

Ahsoka is clearly still going by the "Fulcrum" codename she used when secretly aiding the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.

None other than Tano's own master Anakin Skywalker first used the name for his subspace frequency in the Clone Wars, with Tano then going on to use it as a secret alias. Others would then go on to use said codename over the years, too, such as Agent Kallus in the Rebels animated series.

After all these years, it's interesting to note that Tano is still going by the name that will forever be connected to her master and the Age of the Empire.
