The recently announced, yet untitled " New Jedi Order" movie indicates that Rey - who, like Cal, channels the light side of the Force but understands the dark - is going to attempt to rebuild the Jedi Order following the sequel trilogy. With this in mind, Cal and Merrin's relationship - particularly with how they have learned to overcome their similar traumatic pasts and make each other stronger - could allow more perspectives on the teachings than most Padawans would receive.Īlthough Cal declared that the Jedi Order was gone - and by the time of A New Hope years later many seem to believe this to be true - it's unclear how well Cal's straying from the rules will play out and whether this is yet another failed attempt to revive the Jedi, or merely a more underground group with fewer people involved. Merrin and Cal will likely both serve as mentors as Merrin has already appeared to take on this role by offering words of wisdom based on her own traumas to Kata in the moments after Bode's death. Jedi: Survivor's ending poses Cal to be a mentor to Bode's daughter, Kata in a sequel, with his mentor Cere Junda speaking to him through the Force and asking him to “g uide her through the darkness”.

It's these moments of gray and knowing when to harness elements from both sides of the force, combined with Cal even opting to leave some rules behind that show the potential of what a post-Jedi Order galaxy that still includes Jedi could hold. He momentarily succumbs to it in Jedi: Survivor when escaping Nova Garon, and then later when defeating his former ally Bode Akuna but Cal never lets it fully control him. Cal's path seems to directly mirror Yoda's sentiment, as he has had glimpses into what the Dark Side of the Force could hold.
