Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
This season is 20 episodes long because they keep replaying the first 5 episodes 4 times until Brennan gives up in despair.
I think at this point a fight between ylfa and La Bête is coming and I'm so excited for it. These two are the same, while also being completely different.
Here are my thoughts
Ylfa did not want to eat the wolf, but had to to survive. While la Bête ate her captor with absolute delight.
The moment when those two spoke in the library ylfa realized that she faced someone who truly embraced all aspects of being a beast, especially the gruesome parts and she thrives on her willingness to exact violence. Which makes sense in a way since la Bête took the power from her captor to become something mightier, someone who isn't helpless. La Bête isn‘t evil, she is being herself, truly every living out every part of her soul.
The same can‘t be said for our best girl.
Ylfa is afraid of cruelty, she wants to be kind and seen as such. I think seeing someone is the same as her but who doesn't hold the same fears as her scares her a bit (Especially knowing that la Bête might use violence on her and would have no hesitation about it probably).
I do hope tho that that she is "redeemable" cuz there is big hairy bloodthirsty sister vibes here.
This is my interpretation of ylfa‘s design from Neverafter.
I‘d like to imagine ylfa with a huge axe cuz girls who face death and befriend it deserve a huge axe.
Looks like Neverafter is my next D20 season to tackle! Can't wait to listen to Brennan Lee Mulligan make terrible retching noises while I unpack frozen vegetables 😊 (In all actuality, I'm excited to listen to this season)
I'm almost done listening to A Starstruck Odyssey, but I have an 8 hour shift at work tomorrow.
