Star Wars - with spoilers

[Moonliner]

Back from viewing #4, Here are my thoughts:

Ray was not learning the ways of the force.
She was REMEMBERING them.

Ray was a youngling being trained at Luke's academy when Kylo went to the dark side. Luke managed to save her and hid her away on a desert planet because well that's what he would do.

Why would he hide her?


Ray is Han and Leia's daughter, Ben's younger sister. Luke told Han and Leia that Ray died with everyone else because he knew Kylo would hunt Ray down to either kill or turn her. Luke knows Kylo can Force read minds and could not risk Kylo learning about Ray still being alive as Vader learned about Leia from him. So he hid her, from Leia and Han.

After Han's death, We see Leia goes to comfort Ray not Chewie despite not really knowing Ray at all. Leia is staring to sense the truth. As Episode VII ends we have Ray as Captain of the Falcon with Chewie at her side. How much more of a hint could there be?
