Editor’s Observe: The next incorporates spoilers for Destiny: The Winx Saga.
Demise, they are saying, is a pure a part of life. Destiny: The Winx Saga didn’t hesitate to indicate us that in full pressure this time round. Within the entirety of 14 episodes, we had been confronted with the grim reaper’s scythe fairly quite a few instances. In a nutshell, nobody was protected in Season 2. Minor characters, main characters, and other people you reckoned would in all probability stay without end had been worn out in a turmoil of occasions.
Will most of them stay useless? That’s one thing we are able to’t say for certain, however it’s protected to say that a few of these deaths had been heart-wrenching — however others? They’d it coming. As kind of an ode to all of the fairies and specialists we’ve needed to mourn this season, let’s check out whose dying stung and whose was simply plain gratifying.
7. Beatrix
She could not have been the Miss Congeniality of Alfea, however Sadie Soverall’s character, Beatrix, had just a few moments the place the great in her shone by. It’s clear that she’s simply looking for a way of belonging in her pursuit of the reality about Aster Dell, her want for Rosalind’s approval, and even her shaky friendship with Stella (Hannah van der Westhuysen).
Did she push just a few buttons alongside the way in which? After all! The revelation that she was conniving with Sebastian (Éanna Hardwicke) all alongside definitely didn’t come as a shock. That’s simply typical Beatrix habits. She’s fairly single-minded in her plight to search out out extra about her origins at Aster Dell. So, when she electrocutes Sky (Danny Griffin), breaking Sebastian’smaintain over Bloom and directing his wrath in direction of her, that’s seemingly not like her.
With that last blast that earns her a deadly head damage, one factor is obvious. It was a noble act due to what she in the end gave up — an opportunity to search out her sisters and at last belong. If that doesn’t scream “saddest dying,” then nothing actually does.
6. Farah Dowling’s Spirit
Positive, we noticed Farah (Eve Finest) go down on the finish of Season 1, however there was this lingering feeling that we hadn’t fairly seen the final of her. She was, in any case, probably the most highly effective fairies at Alfea, so a snapped neck appeared a bit too straightforward. She lastly made her reappearance in Season 2, Episode 6 and for a cut up second it appeared like this sensible, not-so-old, sage of a personality would swoop in and supply a seasoned answer to the issues forward. However alas, it was simply her spirit.
It’s protected to say that each one by Season 1, Farah kind of took on the position of the fairy godmother Bloom by no means had. Although usually stern and set in her methods, it’s evident that there’s a softer facet to this highly effective fairy, and maybe that’s why Bloom was so endeared to her. In the long run, she didn’t escape Rosalind’s assault, however she did handle to retailer her essence in a close-by Resurrection Plant.
Watching her spirit disintegrate whereas Jessie Buckley and Bernard Butler’s “The Eagle & The Dove” performs within the background is undoubtedly the right recipe for some tears. On the brilliant facet, Bloom and the gang received to bid a last farewell to their beloved headmistress whereas studying a lesson or two within the course of.
5. Musa and Sam’s Relationship
So this is probably not your typical dying, however you must admit that it was fairly gutting to see what Sam and Musa (Jacob Dudman and Elisha Applebaum) had go down the drain. To suppose it began with one thing so seemingly “useful.”
From the second Musa instructed Sam he sounded just like the absence of chaos, it was evident that the 2 had been the right pair. The difficulty began when she found an interesting facet of her powers — the flexibility to control folks’s feelings. Which is fairly cool, until you cross the road with somebody you like.
We had been promised that we’d get to see a bit extra of Musa, in addition to her powers, in Season 2, however issues received poisonous actual fast. Frequently siphoning away Sam’s anger in direction of Rosalind appeared like injury management, however it ended up backfiring when his anger solely saved rising. After his try on Rosalind’s life blew up in his face, Sam was left with no selection however to depart Alfea.
Maybe the saddest a part of this all is that Sam felt betrayed by somebody he trusted wholly and Musa felt answerable for virtually driving a liked one away.
4. Andreas
Andreas (Ken Duken) was nobody’s hero (besides perhaps Beatrix’s) however it’s protected to say that he died an honorable dying. For probably the most half, he got here off as a senseless drone and Rosalind’s henchman, caring extra about her “righteous” trigger than the son he left behind (or so it could appear). In a nutshell, it wasn’t laborious to really feel virtually nothing however disdain for Andreas.
That every one modified when Sky was compelled to place a sword by his chest.
How did issues escalate to that time? Two phrases, Sebastian and Blood Witch magic. He principally coerced Andreas to assault Sky and Silva (Robert James-Collier). For sure, they had been each getting their behinds handed to them until Bloom momentarily broke the connection.
In these sober moments, Andreas requested Sky to place an finish to issues. It’s virtually poetic within the sense that he was refusing to be anybody’s senseless drone any longer. To save lots of the person he regarded as much as as a father, Sky needed to kill his precise father… and that was how the cookie crumbled.
3. Devin (technically)
It’s protected to say that nobody was fairly invested in Devin’s (Jayden Revri) character, however he was fairly essential within the grand scheme of issues. We’re launched to this character proper firstly when he’s attacked by a scraper. Although it appeared like his sole function was to introduce us to this foretold “larger evil” and fizzle away, there’s a bit of extra to his story.
Again at Alfea, he busts his means out of Rosalind’s secret lab the place he’s clearly being poked and prodded. However he’s quickly in a coma and below Terra’s (Eliot Salt) care, a lot to Rosalind’s dismay. A fast-fix antidote administered by Flora (Paulina Chávez) backfires sorely sending Devin right into a mad frenzy and finally to an premature dying.
Although he comes again from the useless within the subsequent episode (apparently after being revived by Rosalind), suspicions are already excessive. Why was Rosalind conserving a child in a secret lab? Why did he lose his powers? Much more, what was she hiding from everybody at Alfea?
2. Sebastian
Now we’re crossing over to the darkish facet. The villainous Ying to Rosalind’s Yang, Sebastian proves to be a worthy contender in each doable means. Smarts, examine. Energy, examine. The power to kill virtually anybody for “the larger good,” double examine. In some methods, his trigger isn’t significantly illogical.
However making an attempt to steal Bloom’s Dragon Flame, so he can carry the folks of Aster Dell again to life and destroying the Otherworld within the course of cancels out any noble intentions he could have. So how does this unhealthy man kick the mud? Proper after Beatrix’s final sacrifice, the women faucet into their transformation magic and collectively flip him into mud. A becoming finish for a worthy contender.
1. Rosalind
It was a tricky name between Rosalind (Miranda Richardson) and Sebastian for this spot, however Rosalind lastly took the crown. Proper off the bat, it’s clear that she’s a “the top justifies the means” form of fairy. Judging by her crude assault on Aster Dell, to not point out her all-around penchant for “righteous” homicide, it’s protected to say she was nobody’s favourite fairy.
As we delve deeper into Season 2, and her atrocities pile up, it will get simpler and simpler to dislike her — except you’re a sucker for a superb ol’ long-established villain. Positive, her demise got here as a little bit of a shock seeing as she was by far probably the most highly effective fairy in Alfea. However what can we are saying? Don’t poke and prod on the dragon flame for those who don’t wish to get burnt to a crisp.
How did it go down? Nicely, a bit of birdie (Sebastian) let it slip to Bloom that Rosalind murdered Farah. Her powers on the fritz after utilizing the conversion stone and Rosalind’s blatant disregard for all her wrongdoings had been the right recipe for the Dragon Flame to do what it does finest… burn, burn and burn some extra.
