Sure, Luke Skywalker destroyed the Empire and brought his father back to the light. However, that wasnāt the end of the story. A new regime rose up, as did the force wielding character, Ben Solo, who went by the name Kylo Ren.Ā
As the ruthless leader of the First Order, Kylo Ren was willing to do whatever it takes to have the power of the Dark Side, even kill his father.Ā
