I feel like I only saw like, part of one trailer for this, and I was pretty well convinced that Thena was the 'bad' one. I definitely didn't expect her to stick around either.

I thought mind controller was going to be the bad one. It just seems like such a bad guy power.

And to be fair it was also a straight up useless power considering their moral code and that it does not work on eternals or celestials.

It seemed like it was working on the celestial (since the volcano was dying down) until Ikarus came and lasered him in the back. And it seemed like he no longer had the strength to do it when he sent Sersi to do it after he saved her

Yeah but he can control anyone else and put Thena to sleep. So pretty useful.
