No one haunts the narrative quite like Dichen Lachman. Twice now, she's played (to my knowledge) women whose death haunts the main character and is the main motivator for the plot. Trice actually, if we count AoS. And all those times it was a similar case of believing them to be dead but they're alive - in Altered Carbon she was the sister who turned out to be alive and evil and ended up dying in the MCs arms after they kill her. In Agents of Shield she was Daisy Johnson's mother, who turned out to be alive and turned evil, again dying in her arms after she kills her. I wonder if Severance is heading this way too...
