#332nd division

A "Wound in the Force" is created whenever a massive loss of life occurs. All life in the galaxy is interconnected and when a significant number of lives are suddenly ended, the Force sustains a localized injury much like a sentient who had lost a limb. The epicenter of the wound became a dark place, filled with the reverberating echoes of the pain, terror, and suffering of the life forms who had lost their lives. Wounds in the Force were most often centered in astrographical locations where traumatic events took place, such as Malachor V or Alderaan, but they could also form within individuals such as Meetra Surik or Darth Nihilus.

@lost-on-kamino and I have done the best we can to save some of the clones in unconventional but kindly ways. But I always had something much worse in mind for Jesse and the crew of the Tribunal...

Who doesn't love a good vengeful spirit here and there?

Dove: Ok, Echo you start.

Echo: Your manipulation attempts to get me to be on your side of the argument were pretty hurtful, especially after what happened to me on Skako Minor.

Dove: Good! Be honest and assertive if you want to be true to yourself! Rex?

Rex: If I had known this is how you'd end up like, I would have stayed. I would have stayed for all of you. But I was needed somewhere else and I thought you were gone.

Dove: Good lad, getting straight to the chase! What about you boys? What do you have to say?

Jesse/Torrent as they tear apart the Tribunal's damaged hull with their multiple hands: Ȧ̷̙̆̃ȧ̷͈̎͋a̴͍̮̫͗Å̶͓͖͔͕͘̕ą̷̣̖̬̒̒Ą̴̝̓́̄Ạ̴̫̄̒͑̃ͅÃ̶͓̹͌̚A̵̱͂͗̑̚a̶͖̪͙͌̐̚ͅḁ̴̞̀̃̎̚Ȃ̸̤̋̊̕Ä̴̹̺̠Ḁ̵̭̄̍̔Ạ̶͖̤̋̽̾A̷̱͖̒̈͋ͅä̴̰́̓̇a̵̼͕̔A̶̜͖͍̪̔̇A̶̛͉̯̭̯͗̅̐A̶͉̗̱̓͛a̴̯̳̾̕̕á̷̩̚ä̸͜͝A̷͚̓̈̽̂Ä̶̻͉̭́!̷̙̘̱́͋!̸̧̨̞̹̾͒!̸̛͙͜!̸͇͕͓̩͒̑̐!̵͑̒́ͅ!̸̪̐!̸͓̇̏!̸̢̯̗̔̋͆!̵̂͒̃̕͜!̷͍͙̟

Yes and no. Jesse and the rest of the crew of the Tribunal died in the crash. Ahsoka and Rex laid them to rest, erected the grave markers and left behind the lightsabers as a sign of respect and mourning. The Wound in the Force was originally just a manifestation of pain, loss and grief, that surrounded the moon's atmosphere (the space where Alderaan once stood has a much darker feel than this moon)

The trouble arises when Darth Vader shows up, contaminating the origin point of the Wound with the sheer amount of dark side energy he practically expels, and disrespects the lost souls of the Tribunal by stealing away the saber that was left behind for them. The Force is a living thing in its own right, and it was already hurt there... So seeing such disrespect upset it. Made the wound fester into something that was quite honestly pretty unnatural.

That's what Torrent, aka the thing in the storm, is.

A series of souls torn away from eternal rest and contorted into an angry, confused and hateful entity that doesn't know why it's been abandoned. Why Rex would leave them behind... They're dead, but not quite. Alive, but also not quite... And healing that Force Wound won't leave a clean spot. It's gonna scar heavily... Which means they won't exactly disappear, even if they're no longer a vengeful monster. But it's definitely gonna be an anomaly that will need a lot of time to recover from the abysmal horror that was Order 66.
