We
see the creation of the first vampire progeny, we see a possible cause
underlying the sire war, Jackson helps Hayley readjust to existence as a
person, and we meet a vampire secret society….
Lucien
was the first vampire progeny?
Interesting, particularly because it was a complete accident. I also suspect that this sire war is largely
a war between Lucien and Tristan, who seem to really hate each other. This makes me wonder if Lucien’s explanation of
the sire war to Klaus was entirely accurate.
Both he and Tristan seem to be doing everything they can to muddy the
waters and get their respective sires to line up with them. Lucien insists that Klaus has to trust him in
order to protect the people closest to him and Tristan tells Elijah that Lucien
has w weapon that can kill an Original.
I almost wonder if both are telling the truth and this war is some sort
of self-fulfilling prophecy. Each of
them suspects that the other is getting ready to attack, so they both take
steps to eliminate the competition, thereby leading to the war that might not
have existed otherwise.
I
am also noticing that each of the Originals seems to pick a particular type of
person to turn. Elijah’s progeny seem to
be a lot like him, smooth and sophisticated.
Klaus’ progeny, on the other hand, seem to be a little more of the
ordinary man who raises himself to a higher level, much like Klaus himself. It could be that they are trying to create
progeny in their own image as a method of self-perpetuation or it is also
possible that their progeny choose to take on certain traits of their sires in
order to please them. This obviously
wouldn’t hold true for their entire line because the different members of the
line who are more distant are less likely to pick people like the Original they
are “descended” from, but it would hold true for the progeny they create
themselves.
Cami
needs to be really careful. Her
proximity to Klaus is both protection and a target on her back. Anyone who harms her will have to answer to
Klaus, but she could also be used as a bargaining tool to get Klaus to do
something that his enemies want him to do.
She’s not a witch and can only rely on her wits and the moves she’s
picked up to help her survive. Vincent
may be able to help her, but he has limits to what he can do. I think it was wise of her to talk with
Lucien, particularly since it was in such a public place and she needed to talk
with him to get a better sense of what type of person he is.
Given
the obvious tension between Tristan and Lucien, I wonder if there is a third
party stoking the tension between them.
Lucien thinks Tristan is killing people to separate him from Klaus and
Tristan thinks that Lucien is out to kill Klaus and Elijah. What if there is a third party hoping to take
advantage of the tension between them and their sires to provoke a war of
attrition in order to get rid of the Mikaelsons once and for all? That would be someone to reckon with.
Until
next with!
