Coruscant, the capital of the galaxy, is depicted as a bustling political hub where Jedi are betrayed and millions live under imperial rule. Daiyu and Jabiim are gritty, dangerous planets used temporarily by Obi-Wan for covert operations and battles. Alderaan presents a stark contrast as a lush, sophisticated planet symbolizing hope and diplomacy. Fortress Inquisitorius, a water-based fortress on Mur, is a dark militarized base where the Empire conducts its dark experiments and hunts Jedi. Mustafar's volcanic landscape is emblematic of the brutality and destruction left in Vader's wake.
