"We're a Dyad in the Force, Rey. Two that are one."

Throughout the sequels, Rey is fighting Kylo at the same time as she is fighting the temptation to the dark side.

Kylo is her temptation to the dark side. She wants to take his hand, to take the throne of the Sith with her dark other half.

The version of herself that didn't wait for 13 years in the desert, but rampaged through the galaxy.

"Do you still count the days since your parents left? Such pain in you. Such anger."

Rey is tempted by power. The power to protect her friends at all costs. To stop the transport in the desert that carries Chewie away, which is the transport in the desert that carried her parents away.

Palpatine offers her power. When she defeats the temptation to the dark side, she defeats Palpatine. And Ben, her dark other half, vanishes.

"What are you most afraid of?" "Myself."

"Tishra Kandia hurried toward them, Rey's necklace dangling from her hand. Kandia was a top intelligence officer, and one of the few who never balked at his orders to expend First Order resources to find the girl."
