Dual glaive dark crystal3/12/2023 While the day was saved, Deet still has the energy within her, and her lonely walk away from the victory seems to suggest the energy will be a big problem for her in any future season.Īfter all, remember her vision from episode eight? Blink and you’ll miss it, but one of her premonitions saw her sitting on the Skeksis Emperor’s throne, eyes blazing with purple Darkening energy, which could suggest Deet’s sunny personality could be in for a change. We see this warning come to fruition in the finale when Deet absorbs the Emperor’s attack and is able to redirect it away from her friends. “Like all energy it can only be transferred.” However as the tree noted: “The darkening is pure energy, it cannot be destroyed. What’s happened to Deet?Īfter being gifted the power by the Sanctuary tree earlier in the series, Deet was able to absorb the deadly Darkening energy that was twisting and changing Thra. Meanwhile, back at Stone-in-the-Wood, the surviving Gelfling celebrate their new victory, and discover that the Dual Glaive they’d used to fight the Skeksis secretly contained the Crystal Shard missing from the titular Dark Crystal – a crucial tool to allow them to defeat the Skeksis for good.Īmid all the merriment, however, Rian (Taron Egerton) realizes that Deet (Nathalie Emmanuel) is still infected by the Darkening she absorbed from the Emperor’s staff, and watches as she walks away, twisting and infecting the natural world she loves so much in her wake. In their absence, he’s combined the bodies of the spider-like Arrithim and the lowly, mouth-sewn Grounaks (no, not sure if we’re spelling those right either) to create the giant, Beetle-like Garthim, new soldiers in their war against the Gelfling. Humbled, the Skeksis return to the Crystal Castle, bemoaning their loss – only to be greeted by Mark Hamill’s Scientist, who may have the answer to their troubles. The finale battle in The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (Netflix)Īfter a pitched battle that eventually united all seven Gelfling tribes of Thra, the Skeksis are shockingly defeated, and two (Awkwafina’s Collector and Benedict Wong’s General) are killed, by the absorbed Darkening energy of Deet and the duplicitous Skeksis Chamberlain respectively (the Chamberlain doing so in secret as revenge for an earlier slight).
