Skirmish on the Minemoon

Canon Linked from 13 articles

Seeking to obtain a relic known as the Mindsplinter, the Knights of Ren fought a skirmish with several Mimbanese miners who were guarding the relic. Ren wanted to use the skirmish as an opportunity to test Ben Solo's worthiness to join the Knights of Ren. The skirmish was complicated by the arrival of Ben's fellow Jedi trainees Tai and Voe, who had come to avenge the death of Hennix. Tai tried to reason with Ben but was killed by Ren. A grief-stricken Ben killed Ren in revenge, falling to the dark side in the process. After killing Voe, Ben gained leadership of the Knights of Ren, adopting the persona Kylo Ren.
