Mara Jade is likely one of the many casualties of Kylo Ren (born Ben Solo).
modern Star Wars Canon’s legend and Star Wars Legend has it, but if Mara Jade marries Luke Skywalker in the new series like her original counterpart, Luke Skywalker’s exile in the sequel trilogy will be even more tragic.

But Mara means Luke’s Jedi Order is very different
For now, one of the modern Star Wars Canon’s biggest mistake in its handling of Luke Skywalker’s characterization is its portrayal of his new generation of Jedi. Luke’s original trilogy character arc had him rebelling against the traditions of the prequel-era Jedi Order, redeeming his father and defeating Emperor Palpatine by embracing healthy attachments rather than giving up all attachments or succumbing to the dark side. This put Luke in the perfect position to rebuild the Jedi Order with a host of improvements, but as the sequel reveals, he took no action.
In Legends, by contrast, Luke doesn’t recreate the prequel-era Jedi, but instead establishes a new Jedi Order, a heavily reformed successor that ignores the problematic and emotional consequences of its predecessor. Unhealthy traditions.Have a modern Star Wars Canon’s inclusion of Mara Jade from the beginning and establishing her and Luke’s marriage as they were in their original iterations strongly hints that Luke’s new generation of Jedi will significantly reform the Jedi ways, much like in Legends Era of the New Jedi Order. This also requires a more accurate characterization of Luke in the Gospel of Luke. Star Wars The sequel trilogy.
