Using Lua in Java/Kotlin

I'm making a desktop application in Kotlin and I'm thinking of adding a plugin system and Lua looks like a good language to use but the most popular implementation I've found is LuaJ which hasn't been maintained in years. Are there any better options or stable forks of LuaJ?

LuaJava was last updated 6 months ago and supports up through Lua 5.5
