🩸 S2E60: A Tussle With Vanity

Power demands admiration. Gods demand worship.

Description:

The endgame continues. In the wake of To Capture a God, the fractures widen. Merrick pushes forward with his next objective, Vanity. But capturing a god obsessed with self-perception is not a battle of strength… it’s a battle of reflection, deception, and control. Every step closer risks losing what little of himself remains.

Elsewhere, Aubrey is drawn deeper into forbidden history as she’s told the origin of Lilith, a story of betrayal, hunger, and transformation. What began as survival became obsession.

About This Episode:

A Tussle With Vanity serves as Part 2 of the three-part Season 2 finale, peeling back the layers of godhood and revealing the cost of becoming something more than human. This episode balances mythic revelation with escalating dread as the path toward the finale narrows.

Some gods are taken by force.

Others must be understood first.
