So how does Kylo find out about the Fleet ?

The fleet is essentially supposed to be an urban legend that Kylo Ren, as Supreme Leader, had the resources to find.

How does Rey find out what Kylo knows & whats her new quest exactly ?

The Resistance finds out about the fleet through the First Order spy, so their quest is to find Exegol and destroy the fleet before Kylo unleashes it on the galaxy.

Does Kylo need a new fleet ?

According to my revised crawl, the galaxy is rebelling against the First Order, so he needs the additional warships to maintain control.

Wouldnt it make more sense if he was searching out perhaps rumored Dark Siders / Force Users or something like that ? Or better yet instead of Palpatine himself how about rumored Palpatine descendants

I’m not sure how those would make more sense. He finds a massive fleet of ships there, but none of those things. One would have to just assume he abandoned his search for any of those things without any context.

Thanks for the input. It’s always good to step back and question the bigger picture. It’s easy to get bogged down with obsessing over the minutiae.
