Their Force sessions became a way to get Rey to go from hating Kylo Ren to actually engaging with him. Rey and Kylo's Force-bond reappears in the 2019 film Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker and is revealed to be a Force dyad.
He saw her as a useful tool for his rise to power. He was intrigued by the mystery surrounding her. He wanted closure for his defeat at her hands. He had a genuine emotional connection to her.
Kylo develops a close relationship with Rey and starts feeling genuine affection towards her, so when Snoke reveals that he had manipulated their bond and tortures her in front of Ren, he looks furious at his master. Thus, when Snoke orders Ren to kill Rey, he chooses to save her and kill his master instead.
We Finally Know What Kylo Ren Said To Rey In Rise Of Skywalker
Why did Rey kiss Kylo?
While they may not have had romantic love for each other, they became close enough that Rey would miss him after his death. The kiss at the end of The Rise of Skywalker was a goodbye to a friend who would be dearly missed.
Affiliation(s) Zayne Skywalker, a Human male Force-sensitive, was the son of Ben Solo and Rey Palpatine, a dyad in the force as the great grandson of the Chosen One and the son of powerful force wielders, who later becomes a legendary warrior and hero for the galaxy in the decades after the Battle of Exegol.
Summary. Rey gained knowledge and skills through her connection with Kylo Ren, allowing her to tap into his training and skills. Kylo Ren was wounded by Chewbacca's bowcaster, which he believed inhibited his ability to defeat Rey.
And when Ben ran to her, stood by her, fought by her side, crawled out of a canyon to teach her, and gave the last of his life to heal her, what else was she supposed to do? He earned that kiss in the last third of the movie. Rey loved him. She kissed him.
Throughout the sequel trilogy, Kylo Ren serves as the master of the Knights of Ren, a warlord of the First Order, and both an adversary of and romantic interest for Rey.
But much like his grandfather, Anakin, he was sent away from his parents to be trained as a Jedi (in Ben's case, with Luke at his Jedi Academy). That was, easily, the biggest mistake.
The dyad is an unbreakable Force-bond that makes them one in the Force, despite being born as two physically separated individuals. Thus, despite not being related by blood, Ben is Rey's other half, making him her "soulmate" or "twin of the Force". As such, they were connected before they even met.
Rey became a Skywalker to honor Luke, Leia, and Ben Solo for training her and giving her a legacy to uphold. Rey's choice extends the Skywalker name's legacy and ensures it will continue to inspire people and bring hope to the galaxy.
Following Palpatine's final defeat and her own resurrection, Rey adopts the name Rey Skywalker to honor her mentors and their family legacy and renounce her lineage. As the last remaining Jedi, she makes it her mission to rebuild the Jedi Order.
Kylo Ren's "unstable" lightsaber was designed to kill. Knowing Makashi, he would become a much more dangerous foe as he could disarm and eliminate his opponents far quicker without the need to endure a long, intense fight. Sadly, he didn't learn Form II as there was no one around to teach him during his younger days.
This caused him to attempt to assassinate him in his sleep. Needless to say, Kylo Ren is almost definitely a significant threat. However, we cannot definitively say that he is more powerful than Luke. Kylo's powers are vast but they are still highly unbalanced and difficult to control.
It seems that with his last ounce of strength, Ben gave what was remaining of his life energy to save Rey. This was his last sacrifice, effectively acting as redemption to return him to the light side of the Force. That is why his body vanished, as Jedi like Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi and Leia did before him.
Summary. Rey's parents, Dathan and Miramir, have a Star Wars history tying them back to Emperor Palpatine and the Sith, but they have done the work to distance themselves from their past as much as possible.
Their battle was interrupted when Leia used the last of her strength to reach her son in the Force. While Kylo was distracted, Rey ran him through with his own lightsaber, leaving him mortally wounded.
Traditionally, yellow lightsabers are associated with Jedi Sentinels, who balance their combat skills with a strong focus on exploration and practical application of the Force. This choice reflects Rey's well-rounded training and her determination to maintain balance in the Force.
Finally, Rey is Kylo Ren's aunt through Anakin Skywalker. This means that Kylo and Rey's romance is just as genetically awkward as Luke and Leia's kiss on Hoth was. Granted, neither pair knew they were related at the time, but that's no excuse.
