Also, to my thinking, the lava would continue to flow regardless of the castle being abandoned. I can’t remember all of the other canon/non-canon stories about the castle, but I like to think of the beings that Kylo is fighting as cult members who likely are still inhabiting the castle as a dark shrine of sorts.
Just my thoughts.
Yes, is like what I said. The castle was left in ruins 30 years before TROS, if there are cultists protecting this place, it’s safe to say they maybe have reconstructed the castle and maybe are living inside it.
I just think you did a stellar job, 21C and don’t think it looks at all like an Rogue One shot, kinda disappoints me that we will not see that in Hal’s cut, but it is his decision, after all. I just glad he is doing an amazing job with this really flawed movie.
