TLJ Jr - Mind Reading Aftermath

PHYSICALLY, Rey was not in fighting condition after Snoke hurled her across his throne room. Mentally, her mind throbbed like an open wound as it pieced itself back together from his invasive probe.

But in the Force, Rey had never felt stronger.

She had been right about what she’d seen. Luke had been wrong. Kylo Ren wasn’t lost to them. Under his dark shell flickered a spark of light. He could be redeemed.

She joined him in combat against the guards, and they made a most formidable pair. In a blur of laser blades, one red guard fell, then another, then two more, and then a second pair. The Praetorians’ weapons clattered to the ground next to their bodies while slashed curtains fluttered down like funeral shrouds.
