In which we learn some detail about Tibalt's schemes behind the scenes. He is indeed the one causing the impending doomskar. It was Tibalt who unleashed the world serpent on Starnheim while Niko was there. It was also hinted that he was cornered by a Horrible Beast and poisoned with a "seed." Could this be Vorinclex and does this mean Tibalt is infected with glistening oil and expected to spread the Phyrexian influence? This chapter of the saga finishes with a very ominous prophecy that the end of this story will see him killing a female planeswalker.
Any thoughts on Kaya's seemingly impending death? Vorinclex's "desperate" need of Tibalt to cause a distraction? What part Niko will play in this as she and the valkyries pursue the world serpent hoping to discover who set him on Starnheim?

Very interesting. Also, Niko’s preferred pronouns are they/them/their not she/her/hers.

I don't take the ending to be prophecy of a female planeswalker's death so much as Tibalt writing his own tale and bragging about what he feels the end will be. I do not see them killing off Kaya, but a Phyrexian Tibalt could be very interesting.
