It disperses to reveal Rey as her eyes cease glowing, her aura disappears as her feet touch the ground. Her eyes close as she begins to fall to the ground only for Finn and Poe to catch her. Finn cradles Rey in his arms as she opens her eyes and says, "I don't think I can ever do that again. If I do, I don't think I will be able come back from it alive." Poe: "Rey that was..." Rey: "Was..." Poe: "Cosmic! Nothing short of cosmic." Rey: "Just doing what needed to be done as the Force willed." She stands up and marvels at what the force used her to do. A former trooper steps forward to say, "Thank you for sparing us." Rey: "It wasn't me. The force saw that you could be saved. What's your name?" The Trooper: "All I have ever identified myself by is TM 7657777. Though now that I am not an imperial anymore, I think I'll take the name Tim Sevens." A former female trooper, "You can call me Lena Tentoo." Soon every imperial creates a new name from their identification numbers. Another says, "I'm Kaz Ninetry, so what do we call this planet? Now it's no longer the Exogal we knew. I believe it deserves a new name being that it is a new world." Rey thinks and smiles as she says, "I've got the perfect one, Redemption!" Kaz: "I think that's perfect, too." The captain approaches Rey and shakes her hand saying, "Thank you. For giving us back our lives. Now we have a real future we can look forward to." Rey: "You should proud of yourselves for choosing life over serving a dark order of oppression and destruction. Now the Force has given you a second chance along with this world. It's the perfect place to make a fresh start." The captain tells Rey, "My name is Mari Teneights. If you are able, can you lift me into the air, please?" Rey: "I think I can do that." She levitates Captain Mari high enough so everyone can see her. Then through the comm that everyone still has. Mari: "We of First and Final Order have survived and have been spared. The path ahead is free for us to walk." They all begin whispering among themselves until she says, "No one is ever going to rule us with an iron unsympathetic hand again! From now on we will decide how we live, together as a free-thinking community." Tim steps forward and says to those standing around and through the comm, "I want a new life, free of the fear of Sidious until the First and Final Order along with the Sith become nothing but a distant memory that will be only a story to tell to our future children. But it won't happen on its own. It's going to take hard work, but it will be worth it to build a shiny new future. Who's with us?" They all cheer in approval. Everyone around them is hugging, kissing, and discovering new friends and the joys of laughter. As the sun sets Rey, Finn, Poe, R2, BB along with Mari and Tim look out over the valley where a new city is starting to take shape. Where they will build from the destroyers new floating cities so as not damage the planets restored ecosystems. They also see the other surviving imperials that are being placed in cells for reconditioning. Mari asks Rey, "Well, Rey, you're a Jedi and I hear Jedi can see the future. What's in ours?" Rey looking at her happily says, "Sorry Mari, it doesn't work that way." Poe then takes over by saying, "I can tell what I see on your horizon. Even without the Force, I see joy and sadness. Anger and Happiness. Pain and healing. Loss and Love. Despair and Hope. In other words, life! Lived as it is given to us with each new day." Tim: "Guess we can't ask for more than that." Mari: "Indeed, live well and free. All of you." They depart as Rey asks, "What do you think about their prospects, General Poe?" Poe: "Whoa ho, I'm no longer commanding general. I'm going to go back to being a transport pilot." Finn: "Ha! You'd go mad in less than a day." Poe: "Humph maybe, still to answer your question, Rey. If they are willing to put in the time and effort, then I think they have a real chance at making it work out for the best. I just hope they remember to remain vigilant." Rey: "Yes, as Leia taught me, the true price of freedom is eternal vigilance." Finn: "We can only hope." Rey then turns to Finn and asks him, "Finn there was something you needed to tell me. What was it? Finn works up the courage and says, "Can you teach me how to be a Jedi because I think I and the other former storm trooper we met on Endor are force sensitives, too." Rey smiles and cheekily says, "I'll think about it. I just want to enjoy this moment. Cause for what feels like the first time in forever, everything feels right again and has a real chance and hope for peace." The three friends sit together with the Millennium Falcon behind them and the sun setting to their left behind majestic mountains./p

Thanks to your humility, courage, and love by severing those dirtsiders' connection to the mortal plane, this galaxy and the universe as a whole now have a real chance and hope for peace." Qui Gon: "But don't get complacent." Rey: "Right, for as long people can choose between light and dark and to not follow the will of the force. Evil will always find a way in." Anakin: "Vigilance is the great price of freedom. Never stop trying to teach the future generations that." Rey: "I will always do my best to do so." Serenity appears to say, "Then that's good enough for us."/p
