Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Todd's role as observer in Episode 10 shifts to participant in Episode 11 as she witnesses the physical and psychic escalation of Aris’s corruption. This escalation forces her to confront the idea that suffering and historical cycles (as described by Panna) are real forces in this world.
