Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Barbara’s confidence in human agency over divine intervention in Episode 29 (e.g., Autloc’s caution) echoes in her terror of the temple’s spirits in Episode 30. This emotional throughline shows her moral unraveling as she grapples with the consequences of her deception and the danger to her companions.
