How Maul kept his master's Sith secret...
Summary Star Wars has revealed Darth Maul's critical role in keeping his master's greatest secret. Sheev Palpatine had long maintained a double life as an influential politician and a Dark Lord of the Sith. However, it was nearly undone were it not for his first dark apprentice before the events of The Phantom Menace.
Although Cion seemingly doesn't know the full picture about who Palpatine truly is, the mere fact that he was threatening to expose Palpatine poses a serious risk to all the Sith Lord's plans, hence Darth Maul's new mission ahead of the Skywalker saga. Palpatine Sent Maul To Kill A Blackmailer Coir Cion Could Have Exposed Palpatine's Darker Operations Despite none of his questions being answered by his master, Maul heads off to track down Coir Cion, eventually finding his territory where the criminal had holed himself up while waiting for Palpatine to grant him a pardon.
Any Exposure Could Have Unraveled All Of Darth Sidious' Plans Darth Maul Ensured Palpatine's Web Remained Intact Having understood the truth of his mission, Maul naturally asks how someone as insignificant as Coir Cion could ever be a genuine threat to the Sith. While Palpatine again disregards Maul's questioning, the exchange highlights the primary vulnerability of the Sith during this era: their greatest strength was their anonymity and existence only in the shadows.
