    It should be noted that this is from a recurring dream sequence Luke has where he never left Tatooine.

    If he had stayed on Tatooine, he would most likely followed the path of his adoptive parents - Owen and Beru - and Owen's parents before, so got married and inherited the moisture farm. After everything we saw in TLJ, you can surmise that Luke had some regrets, even subconscious ones.

    As its says in my OP,..whatever it is..it pulls that question newertheless.

    Mark Hamill once said for him to get into the character that Luke needed for TLJ, he imagined Luke had a wife who was murdered .

    But even you said it was a dream...that said I'm bit skeptical of novels and if they truly are canon. Like how TLJ acts like Poe and Rey never met, but the novelization says they did.

    It pulls the question, that's what I said.

    It makes Luke one who dreamed could have a wife.

    May I guess before you start? This leads to another Luke is Rey's dad theory?

    That is because in a early version of the script the one they based the novel they did meet. That was obvasly changed quite late on & for some reason they never informed the author of this change. Also novels are canon unless they contradict the film in which case the film takes precedence.

    Someone on reddit got the book early and he is spoiling it for those who want it.

    People who read the first chapter ( I preordered novel, it don't have any material).

    Says that Luke is dreaming or phanthasizing about his alternative life, what would be if he just sold those droids that day in New Hope( R2D2 and C3PO)...what woul be his life than.

    He dreams he would have a wife,.... Comie...its a girl we know from deleted scenes of New Hope and its novelisation ...

    Apparently , Luke-Rey conversations are epic.

    The Last Jedi Novelisation.


    Rey is Luke's niece.

    At least that's what Luke tells the caretakers.

    I wouldn't get hung up with the literature, only have too look at the TFA novel. Movie trumps the books according to Pablo.

    Don't like this dream of Luke's alternative life with a wife, this makes it all the more depressing. :(

    Probably is what he told to the caretakers, so they would not bother him for having a " guest" in that place

    That was my thoughts too, They were not that excited about him being there much less someone else.
