After inheriting the fate of Darth Vader, Kylo Ren proved to be a much better candidate for the role that came true after the events of Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
Whereas star wars fans agree that Kylo Ren don’t hold the candle dark Vador in virtually every way, he actually had a much better chance of ruling the galaxy than Vader ever did – and a near-fulfilled prophecy proves it.
Ben Solo, aka Kylo Ren, became a dark side warrior after being nearly murdered by Luke Skywalker as a child due to his extremely strong connection to the dark side of the Force. After running away from his murderous uncle, Ben was seduced by Snoke (secretly Darth Sidious) and delved into the ways of the dark side. However, rather than follow the ways of the Sith, Ben has earned the title of leader of the Knights of Ren – a group of nihilistic fanatics who worship the ways of the dark side without adhering to Sith rules and want nothing more than to spread chaos in the cosmos. From then on, Ben Solo became Kylo Ren and weaponized the once rogue Knights of Ren.
In Dark Horse Comics Star Wars: Legends series Star Wars: Darth Vader and the Ninth Assassin by Tim Siedell, Stephen Thompson and Iván Fernández, Vader follows the trail of an organization known as the Heinsnake Cult as they attempted to assassinate the Emperor. The trail leads to the cult’s homeworld where its religion reigns supreme in society. When Vader arrives, the cult leaders are unafraid of him, but are actually overjoyed at his arrival. Based on ancient hieroglyphs, their religion states that Darth Vader is the chosen one of the Heinsnake cult who are prophesied to cause glorious chaos across the galaxy by wiping out Jedi and Sith and then ruling the galaxy himself from a way that would make her burst. in anarchy.
Darth Vader is unwittingly close to fulfilling this destiny, but he abandons it while helping his son, Luke Skywalker, fulfill his destiny of balancing the Force. However, while Darth Vader failed in his duties as the chosen one of the Heinsnake cult, Kylo Ren inherits his grandfather’s fate with a much better chance of success. At the end of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Snoke is dead, Luke is dead, and Kylo Ren is the supreme leader of the First Order while retaining his title as leader of the Knights of Ren. The ensuing chaos is essential to the religion of the Knights of Ren, just as it is to the Heinsnake cult, and with Kylo Ren as supreme ruler of the galaxy without a Jedi or Sith strong enough to challenge him, Kylo Ren could have brought the Heinsnake Cult’s prophecy to its anarchic conclusion using its influence to wreak havoc across the galaxy with its Knights of Ren.
Darth Vader was loyal to the Emperor and the Sith, so when told about the Heinsnake Cult prophecy, he dismissed it without hesitation. However, Kylo Ren was never a Sith and proved by leading the Knights of Ren that his ideals were more in line with the Heinsnake Cult’s way of thinking. For a brief moment after The Last Jedi, Kylo Ren was the highest authority in the galaxy and had all the means to throw it into chaos once the Resistance was taken over. Darth Vader was never able to rule the galaxy unchallenged as he died immediately after helping Luke stop the Emperor, and his loyalty to the Sith would ensure the galaxy would remain under Fascist control should he take over. relay. Kylo Ren had the means to rule while having the support of an ancient prophecy behind him, proving that he had a much better chance of ruling the star wars galaxy that dark Vador never done.
