Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection highlights the Garm as a symbol of unyielding authority across episodes, employed differently by human overseers—either as a direct enforcer or as a tool of psychological terror. The creature’s silent presence serves as a constant reminder of Terminus’s cruel logic.
