"No," he said, shaking his head. "Nothing here means nothing. That's not how the Force works."
What was he supposed to do? Part of him wanted to walk away, like he'd done when she first showed up and he'd seen that darkness hovering around her. But the time for that was past--she was no longer a stranger, a cardboard figure to be dismissed. He'd let her in and this was, now, his problem as well.
And if his nephew had some sort of connection to her, and Luke had opened himself back up to the Force...
"I've put us all in danger," he muttered to himself. Rey had, really--but not by design. Just ignorance. "That's what you were digging for the whole time. The root of your connection to him." And what was that? What did they share, other than Luke's fear of their raw power? "You'd better tell me everything."
