Innocents can still get in the crossfire. However, there is a downside to using those powers as both her and MK have experienced.

By doing so less butterflies need to be in battle. She wants to rid the badlands of the current oppressive system. The difference between MK and the Widow is their stance regarding the “dark power.” The Widow’s motivation in getting her powers back appears to be for the right reasons. It’s an understandable reaction considering the pain it has caused into his life.

There’s at least one traumatic event that made them lose their powers.įor once I agree with MK not wanting his powers back now that they are gone.

They have something with the Azra symbol on it.

They both lost their powers before learning to control it.

Their parents seem to know more about the power and Azra than they told their kids!.

Throughout the episode, I realized similarities between MK (Aramis Knight) and The Widow. More flashbacks please!

It already looked weird when the abbots did it but it’s extra when someone smaller does it.

I thought Jesse Jane McParland, the girl that played young Widow was adorable! I thought it was extra cheesy though when she first posed after her eyes turned black. It was cute seeing how Minerva had a preference to two swords and a dagger clip with the butterfly icon when she was a kid. Her father gave it to her and taught her one word: Azra. Minerva (Emily Beecham) is Bajie’s (Nick Frost) Flea! We see a flashback from 20 years ago when Minerva first arrived at the monastery. A nightingale (potentially) sang one last time! *Sniff* Since I didn’t hear a neck crack, I’m holding out hope darn it!
