girlandherstaff | The Marriage Rites of the Jedi [closed to niteofren]

There is a level of awareness that Rey has regarding her lack of guilt for stealing the sacred Jedi Texts from their generations old home on the island. That being said, it's often dulled by the knowledge of Master Skywalker's insistence that there was no more need for the Jedi when she knew that there was, or at least was incredibly sure that there was.

She had made an attempt or two to read through the old texts, but they were not exactly what could be called page turners, and the heavy going dry information was made only worse by the fact that age had dulled the appearance of the text, making it hard to make out what was actually written. That was the main reason she was so sure she had gotten it wrong. After all, everyone knew that the Jedi never married, so why would there be mention of marriage rites in theirs texts?

But they were there and that sinking feeling in her stomach made it clear to her that no, she wasn't misreading. If this was right...

Did he know? He had read these, hadn't he? Or, at least the Histories? Could that be why he made that offer?

Rey had thought that reading the texts would help clear her confusion, but now she felt more confused than ever

Kylo paced the empty throne room. The time since Crait had been a blur. His master was dead. Rey left him. He was Supreme Leader but his general wanted his head and his rank.

What did he need with a massive throne room? He needed to call his knights. He needed them here. This would be their room, a room to train in, to plan in. They were the only ones in the First Order he could trust.

His planning stopped when he felt a tingle along the back of his neck and the world grew quiet. He knew what he would see if he turned around.
