Elaine didn’t make it afterall. It’s unfortunate that Saya’s blood couldn’t save her. She would have been a welcome addition to the ongoing story. Now that the Sifu know Saya’s blood can’t save them, there’s no reason for them to go after Saya anymore. Even though they aren’t going to work together for the time being, they will probably end up helping Saya and the others at some point. Julia may begin to suspect something is up after hearing Collins mention “Van”. It will be interesting to see how that situation will turn out. In one month Amshel will execute his plans against the “Red Shield”. I can’t tell if that’s soon or quite far down the line. They could rush the time line or they could prolong it. Either way I look forward to it.
