Besides the trade thing, there’s also the problem that you’re removing the first vision of her parents - which I’d personally like to avoid. There’s also the fact that I’ve found out the Kylo line before Rey says “No!” has to be extremely brief, a few words only. I see what you’re trying to do, though - the only way the infertility and adoption angle works is if they have no choice but to take her out of all children in rather than finding a safe child like Broom Boy. But I still think it being an assignment is the simplest approach. All that being said, there are a couple of ideas here I might implement, so thanks!

The missing link for them being assigned caretakers is giving a compelling reason why the Sith cult would be giving these clones to random people in their circle. The only thing that makes sense to me is simply the fact that they don’t have the resources to raise countless children and experiments on Exegol. We see how desolate and barren the place is at the beginning of the movie. I was hoping that implication might come through in my last draft, but clearly it still needs a bit of work in that regard. This is a problem in the original movie; how is it that the Sith troopers and officers even survive on the planet? Where do they all live?
