That’s an interesting thought. It hadn’t even occurred to me that Rey might have seen into the future.

Well in the Force Vision she also sees Kylo Ren popping from behind a tree where their confrontation later takes place on SKB. Funny thing is though that Kylo Ren had his mask on in the vision but not when the actual fight went down.

Right I forgot about that. Doesn’t she also briefly see the Starkiller Base laser beam?
Makes you wonder if the whole Luke and Artoo bit might also be from the future.

I’m also quite intrigued by what a “monk of Ren” implies.

It’s been rumored that the KoR are like the Church of The Force; non force sensitives that worship The Force. Maybe this Monk is the only KoR with the exception of Kylo that can draw upon The Force.

Well there was an interview where Abrams/Kasdan (I can’t remember which one) described Kylo as being a “religious fanatic” so that’s possible. That might also explain his overly harsh treatment of Lor San Tekka and his people (of course the Empire/First Order isn’t exactly know for being nice, but it seemed somewhat extreme regardless). There’s also the fact that they seemed to know each other, or at least Tekka knew of Kylo. Maybe KoR originates from the Church of the Force? For all we know there could have been a religious war going on in the thirty years between ROTJ and TFA.
