I don't really read book summaries so when I borrowed the audiobook for Ambessa: Chosen of the Wolf, I screamed when I realized that the narrator is Ellen Thomas, the voice actor of Ambessa in Arcane. Hell. To the Yes.

Just finished watching episode 3 of Act 1 of Season 2 of ‘Arcane: League Of Legends’. Jinx and Vi finally face off in a fight that genuinely is in the effort to end the other. Jinx expresses her need to die and is comforted by the fact it’s her sister that will be the end of her but Vi calls off the shot on her because a child is in the crossfire. Caitlyn, who was about to take the shot, didn’t seem to care about that. She wasn’t going to let Jinx get away.

After the interaction where Vi pleads for Caitlyn not to let the violence change her the way it has done for and with everybody else in her life and they have what seemingly is their first kiss (may just be on screen) and Caitlyn promises her that she won’t, it seems to be too little too late now that vengeance is all that stokes her and their love might not be able to withstand the fire.

Lots of thematic resonance here as Act 1 comes to a close. We don’t know what happened to Mel - is she dead? Been taken hostage? What’s happened there? All we know is that she never got any closure on the item utilising the shimmer and uncovered her own mother’s treachery. Speaking of, Ambessa is elected General - by unanimous vote it seems - and makes Caitlyn the sole commander of an initiative that will certainly create a lot of conflict between CaitVi and prove to Vi that she’s changed for the worst if Caitlyn chooses to lead an attack on Zaun - repeating the cycle all over again.

I don’t know what they’re going to do to solve these problems for the main characters and wrap up all their narratives but it’s got to be something pretty damn clever to be successful storytelling where they have satisfying or at least logically sound conclusions for all.

Short form factor TV shows usually struggle with the endgame. Let’s see how Riot Games and Fortiche fair.
