[ The question tempers some of her humor, anticipation of his reply keeping her from properly registering what was as close as he could get to a compliment of her admittedly inexperienced skills in battle strategy. Rey drops her hands from the door frame, straightening up somewhat as if bracing for the bad news. ]
In the hands of your uncle. [ She opts not to mince the words. It would only predispose him to being more irate. ] I gave it to him when I told him that I'd lost mine. [ His, really. Or more accurately, Anakin Skywalker's.
It wasn't until she had trained with Luke that she'd come to understand why Kylo was so set on that blade when he had one of his own making, but she had since determined the link. Any possession of Darth Vader's was his by inheritance, presumably, but that blade had never properly belonged to Darth Vader, by Luke's own estimation.
Truthfully, she can't be sure which he'll be angrier about: the Skywalker lightsaber lost to the forested valleys of Corellia where the battle had scorched the forest and relieved her of it, or the fact that he'll have to make time for a one-on-one with his estranged uncle in order to get his own back. ]
If you want to get it back, you should go find him. I'll track Chewie down and tell him to get the ship ready while I share the back-up plan with General Organa. It'll be difficult for her dispute that strategy, even if she's hesitant to accept your report without the fleet here to prove it.
