How much must Luke Skywalker be freaking out right now?
You are moping on your island of self-imposed exile, and then this girl shows up.
Sheâs flying your best friendâs ship. The ship that Han thought he lost for ever. The ship that was stolen and passed through so many hands that he was sure heâd never see it again. The same ship that took you away from home for the first time.
Sheâs accompanied by your personal droid. The droid you left behind and abandoned. The droid that C-3PO was sure would never be the same again.
She holds out her hand and sheâs holding your fatherâs light saber. The sword you were sure was lost forever. The light saber that you dropped down a bottomless air shaft on a gas giant thirty years ago. The light saber you knew you would never see again.
You look up and you see her eyes. Maz Kanata says that if you live long enough, you see the same eyes looking out of different faces. The girlâs face is different, but those eyes are the same. You know those eyes. Theyâre the eyes you thought youâd never see again.
And thatâs when you know it.
They say sometimes the Force works in mysterious ways. Sometimes, the Force will send you little signs. Subtle clues.
Other times, the Force will just beat you repeatedly over the head with a gigantic neon sign that says:Â âYou canât run away from your past anymore, Luke. I wonât let you. Look, here is your past come back to haunt you. Now deal with it.â
