Liliana: ...anyway, that's why I think we should adjust our plans, and why you should keep letting me know what you are doing

Ludinus, tying a dinner napkin around his neck: yes hmm we do need to increase our synergy

Three cheers for Dorym nation in celebration of the first kiss! Three cheers for imodna cottage dream truthers!

And a mourning for Liliana Temult....

Truly reached new highs and lows in this episode...

Well shit.

Looks like Ludinus has his plan to become the Vessel of Predathos himself.

Really, the only question is if this was always the plan, or he picked Liliana because she was turning.

I swear if Ludinus kills Liliana with the funnel, I will lose my shit

Episode 115

I suddenly have a sinking feeling that all those missing Exaltants didn't get fed to Predathos....

This is such a bittersweet way for Liliana to end. For so much of the campaign, she’s spoken of herself almost as if she believes herself fully lacking in agency regarding her circumstances. As if she had no choice but to join the Vanguard, to stand by while Ludinus and Otohan committ atrocities, to leave her family behind, to put the world on the line. This was the only way she could see to 'save her daughter', so of course there was no choice but to do it. And when Imogen reached out to her, told her that no, I don’t want this, you can still walk away, there’ll be consequences but you can walk away, Liliana dithered. Suddenly there was an undeniable choice - to betray either Ludinus or her daughter - and she didn't want to make it, didn't want to committ to either choice, didn't want to accept that despite all her hardships she does, in fact, have agency.

In the end, she didn’t get to make that choice between Vanguard or Imogen. She dithered for too long, and the agency that she had so long denied having was finally, truly, taken from her.

Here's a completely irrelevant snippet from Episode 91, when Liliana survives the assassination attempt and confronts the Hells:

Oh.

How many ruidusborn has he done this to

[the-matron-of-ravens]

So, if I remember correctly, it takes an hour for a person to kill someone and absorb their essence using the funnel. It's also likely that over time Ludinus has improved his design so maybe it's closer to 30 mins or so.

The only thing that potentially saves Liliana from what seems like almost certain death is if Ludinus is only just beginning to absorb her. This could be possible because Matt said that her feet were beginning to go. If he is just starting, then perhaps Bells Hells can interrupt him in time.

If not, well. This is one helluva way for Imogen to end up having to fight her mother.
