What if Rey had been made to be descended from Bastila Shan?
By blood alone would connect her to 4000 years of Star Wars history. 4000 years of wars, pain, and bloodshed. 4 millennia of empires rising and falling, of sacrifices, of joyful reunions, tearful farewells, happy weddings, and somber funerals.
But thanks to TLJ that potential for connection to something greater than Rey is gone, and thanks to Disney the Skywalker legacy is about to be reduced to almost nothing.
