But her journey awakens a new threat: a figure known only as The Wraith, a former Jedi turned Sith who has been manipulating the balance of the Force from the shadows. With a powerful ability to manipulate both light and dark sides of the Force, The Wraith believes that true balance can only come from the destruction of the Jedi and the Sith, seeking to remake the galaxy under a new order of her own design. As Rey faces this mysterious villain, she must confront not only the external threat but also her inner fears, learning that peace may require embracing both the light and dark within herself.
