Oh boy, I didn’t mean to trigger people by referencing the novelization. All I’m saying is that it is physically impossible for Snoke to have kickstarted the entire dyad because according to Kylo, the effort of such projection would kill. I pointed out that portion of the novelization only because I was considering when the dyad could have truly begun, and then Snoke simply helped it grow. Of course, I don’t believe that Snoke should have anything to do with their dyad because it creates too many questions for the viewer with the strange relationship between him and Palpatine.
