"Darth Sidious died.....twice?" He questions the phrasing just to make sure he just heard that right. If it was true, well, that is some news he has not heard before! This also confirms for him that Tavion really is the furthest down the timeline of the galaxy that Maul has encountered before. This makes her of great interest to the Sith Lord, curious as he is about what might happen to the fate of the galaxy at large with his odious master finally put in the grave for good.

He can sense the Dark Side coming off of that staff as she plants it on the ground, the scepter roiling with a large amount of power that Maul hasn't encountered before. He's not sure what can be done with such a weapon, so he'll remain cautious....for now anyway. "I have never seen such a thing before. What is it?"
