I have an idea of their connection after meeting in childhood; below in spoilers ā¬ļø:
I think she may be working for the agency he originally started in and heās a semi-fully integrated spy on the enemyās side. I donāt think his agency knows heās alive; I could be wrong and maybe heās been sending out information this entire time. Maybe she thinks heās defected. Hope theyāre end game in the finale.
Seems like we're racing towards that finish line. Who needs this subplot of the whatever ppl kidnapping QXT? Things are way too fast now, after wasting so much time on the elders being idiots subplot. I'll miss Eldest Master, but I hope at the end he'll maybe also return. We need to get the gang to that valley and whatever chipmunk puppet is planning.
