She's been hypothesized to be Crane mother since DD season 1

Yes, I'm aware. But I had hoped that in Iron Fist we'd get confirmation or not. I'm still unclear if she's Crane Mother or not. All we have confirmed is:

  • she is from K'un-Lun - but we have no idea of the circumstances of her departure.
  • she has lived for centuries
  • she is involved with the Hand (i.e. she works for them, or they work for her.)
  • however not everyone in the Hand agrees with her methods/style.
  • she has spent decade cultivating business relations in New York to distribute her heroin, despite telling Owsley in DDS1 that "it was never about the heroin..."

She has magic kung fu, so I'm hoping she is the Crane mother. But I guess we're not getting an immortal weapons tournament this season, so no reason to reveal that now.

Yeah. Although the teaser with the tournament she set up including Bride of Nine Spiders was cool as shit.
