Admittedly only Luke is wielding a lightsaber in this sequence, but this is a pivotal moment for the series, serving to further nudge a still young Ben Solo to the Dark Side of the Force.

Set while Ben was still an apprentice of Luke Skywalker, this flashback follows the pair travelling to an old Jedi outpost, where they are intercepted by the Knights of Ren, who seem to be anticipating Ben's arrival.

Though Luke manages to fend off the Knights, "Ren" (then leader of the Knights) manages to tell Ben there's darkness in him before fleeing, telling the boy he's welcome to join them if ever wishes - which, of course, he does, to disastrous consequences across the galaxy.
