![]() Starkiller Base is a wintery forest (the land grows cold and barren when Demeter looks for her daughter), and Kylo has taken Rey underground at the base (Hades takes Persephone to the underworld). Soon after touching the legacy saber (alluding to the narcissus flower), which appears irresistable to Rey, Kylo Ren descends upon Takodana in his Command Shuttle (Hades' black chariot) dressed as a traditional Death figure (Hades is god of the dead), and abducts Rey from the lush forest (in Persephone it is a lush meadow), bridal carrying her across the threshold of his shuttle (symbolic marriage) then sprititing her away while heralded by four black TIE fighters (Hades' chariot pulled by four black horses). ![]() Allusion:The interactions between Kylo Ren and Rey heavily allude to the Persephone myth from ancient Greece.
