hey guys what's going on today's video is gonna cover some more information
from the rise of Skywalker novel one thing in particular was a lot of people
including myself here when we were kind of just going crazy over the end there
with Rey's lightsaber you know is this a duel saber is it a single saber well we
have official confirmation that it is indeed a single saber it's not a dual
saber at all in the book she does yeah I'm gonna read the excerpt to page 246
in the book it does talk about her wanting to create a lightsaber that
might be you know akin to her her quarter staff because she's used to
wielding that but at the end of the film it's actually confirmed that it was
single bladed verbatim so if you haven't checked the book out comes out on the
17th there's a lot of extra info in there for you guys so we're starting at
page 246 right in the middle I'm gonna put it right on the screen here so here
we go holding them side by side in her hand she gaze down at them for a long
moment they'd belonged to her teachers her family she placed them on the ground
wrapped them gently into a small package using some fabric and a leather tie
calling on the power of the force she pushed on the lightsaber sink lower and
lower until the ground had fully welcomed them shrouded them in cool
quiet rest Rey stood pulling out her own lightsaber she ignited it her lightsaber
glowed white gold and she gazed at it a long moment it was single bladed with an
outer casting with an outer casing and emitter salvaged from her quarter staff
the final result felt like the exact inverse of the lightsaber held by the
dark ray of her vision and she loved it it was beautiful it fits so perfectly in
her hand and she would carry it with her forever
hello came in strange voice and she turned an old human woman approach
blah blah blah we going to the the end of the movie which I'm briefly gonna say
she looks over to the horizon and she sees Luke and Leia's ghost and Luke's
voice almost says to her like in her mind take it it's yours when she's
wondering you know what to call herself so I thought that was kind of
interesting because when I saw the film I was like well she calls herself a
Palpatine a Skywalker when she's a Palpatine and it would have been cool if
she was like you know what I embrace Who I am now and I'm gonna take that and I'm
gonna change the screen you know I'm gonna flip the script
change my name and let it be known for good but I also understand that she's
carrying on the legacy of Luke and Anakin because it was them who trained
her and Leia not Anakin but unfortunately so there's I understand
both sides of it so we'll see now her lightsaber being white gold is
also interesting to me that they don't say yellow because Asoka's lightsabers
in this work go to this where'd she get the crystal from right there was a red
sith crystal that Luke had hanging around his neck and a lot of the
memorabilia for the last Jedi and then we see in the movie he was hanging in
his Hut and in the visual dictionary it says that this this crystal is a Sith
crystals from a crew say neo Crusader or something like that so I'm wondering did
she take that crystal is it part of a lightsaber he looked a little small but
it could be you know possibly it could be a lightsaber crystal you take that
that she make it bleed somehow her the opposite is she purified it because we
know a so could purified the Inquisitor lightsabers and they turned from red to
white and this one says white gold so it doesn't say yellow so it's interesting
you know it's it's not orange it's not yellow but it's white gold so yeah
that's cool I want to know more about this white gold and what it really means
in terms of the force because we know that my least in Legends blue mint or a
guardian green mint you're strong in the force red you're evil and so on and so
forth so and purple we know you're in between you got the red and the blue so
you use both sides of the force which is kind of what she does so I guess they
couldn't have a purple one again but it would have made sense anyways as far as
her bearing the lightsabers I feel like those are definitely gonna come into
play later on in the future some point in Star Wars either she's gonna go back
and get them maybe in another film or a show or we're going to get some other
show that's takes place you know thousands of years or hundreds of years
later and you know when Rey and all of them are gone and they become one with
the force and then this person comes you know a guy or girl comes in and picks up
the lightsabers and takes them for his or her own and that would be pretty cool
maybe wields both of them or you know there are two force users that come in
there so that's pretty much all I wanted to cover in this video
her lightsaber is indeed single bladed it does explain in the in the
that she built it using schematics and information from Luke's ancient Jedi
text that she got from Mach 2 and she's been trying to build a lead lights of
her own for a while now between episode 8 and episode 9 which is about a year
apart sooo yeah that's pretty much it go check out the book if you haven't
already comes out March 17th lots of cool tidbits and information in there
still going through a lot and yeah hope you enjoyed today's video and now we
know that her lightsaber is indeed single bladed which it what also is a
little bit confusing there and I could see how maybe some people would
misconstrue that as it being double bladed it says it's a direct inverse of
dark rays saber but dark Ray's saber was it was kind of interesting he was like
folded up and then it opened Ray's lightsaber that we see in the film it
was not a long hill - didn't have to it was just one single hilt and I always
saw this and I was like well it could be double but you know just had a very
short middle section where you grabbed but hey but now at least we know in
Canon that it is a single bladed lightsaber so cool
maybe sure you know eventually expand upon it one day but until then we know
what it is now so have an awesome rest for day and may the force be with you
see you guys
