Ben Solo: The Way Home

*SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2022 WATTY AWARDS* and also a *2022 AMBY AWARD WINNER*!

This story is a new hope for Ben Solo, after the end of Kylo Ren...

Unbalanced without the other half of the dyad, Rey hopes for a way to reach Ben Solo after his disappearance on Exegol. The discovery of a strange book takes her back to Tatooine and other familiar locations, and soon Ben returns to a world that is working hard to rebuild itself in the wake of the Final Order's destruction.

But Ben Solo has returned with the aim of fulfilling one final destiny -- one that even Rey cannot sense in him -- and when most people see him only for who he was, not who he is, he thinks that destiny will be easy to fulfil. But defenders can come from the most unexpected places... Especially when Ben Solo could be crucial when it comes to Rey's intentions for the new Jedi Order.

The Force demands balance, and he was, after all, the son of a princess and a scoundrel before he was anything else...

I have tried to be as consistent with the movies, TV shows, canon books and comics as I can. However, there are gaps in my knowledge and I have used some artistic licence.
