showrunner Leslye Headland has talked about that in episode 5 – and, though she's pretty tight-lipped on what it all means, it there for a reason. At the end of the episode, Qimir, , takes Osha as a student. But, as he uses the Force to heal her wounds, Kylo Ren's theme plays.
"Ah, wish I could," Headland told when asked if she could talk about the moment. "It is there on purpose, but I can't tell you why, and I can't go into what it is. But you shall see.

Not only was Qimir finally unmasked, but Jecki and Yord were both tragically killed by the Sith Lord, and Mae switched places with Osha and is now leaving the planet with Master Sol, while Osha is in Qimir's care.
