One of the deleted scenes attached to Star Wars: The Last Jedi‘s home release opens with Rey, having just received from Jedi guidance from Luke Skywalker, looking at the Ahch-To shoreline and and seeing a line of lights on the sea heading to the village where the Caretakers live. Luke informs Rey that those lights are from a warring tribe that’s come to raid the village, and Rey can’t help but want to grab her lightsaber and rush to help the Caretakers. Luke tells her that even if she could help, that warring tribe would just come back a few weeks later with more fighters, and Rey might not even be around then. In this instance, Luke says that a Jedi would stand aside and let the conflict play out, but Rey opts not to do that, instead running to the shoreline with her lightsaber ignited, a moment shown in The Last Jedi teaser trailer. In the end, she learns that an actual raid wasn’t unfolding; it was just a party amongst the Caretakers.
