    Luke is just gone in vii, it’s not until viii that the reason is revealed. He could have been fighting a super sith or uncovering some secret trove of knowledge or kyber crystal. It could have been a place to commute with past jedi to learn how to adapt the jedu way to a more stable approach. All of that would be better than I left to be alone and die.

      He’s gone because he recreated the Jedi Order, it blew on his face like every other time the order existed, and a wannabe Empire appeared because of it. It’s perfectly fine right then for he to be in crisis.

      What he was doing was a “commute with past Jedi to learn how to make the order non-poisonous” quest. But he couldn’t possibly complete this one.
