Although there be few changes: Five years after the events of The Last Jedi, the First Order rules the galaxy with General Hux as its chancellor. Taking control of Coruscant, the First Order daily publicly executes members of a crushed Resistance and has blocked communications across the galaxy.[1] Still free from the First Order's control, Rey, Finn, Poe Dameron, Rose Tico and BB-8 steal a Star Dreadnought from the occupied planet of Kuat and take it to Korilev, where surviving members of the Resistance, led by General Leia Organa, have established a new base. Kylo Ren discovers a Sith Holocron in Darth Vader's castle on Mustafar, which leads him to seek the training of a 7000-year-old alien named Tor Valum, who taught Emperor Palpatine's master Darth Plagueis.[2] During training, Kylo fights a phantom of Vader and masters the power to absorb life energy, which he uses to kill Tor Valum.
