… If only someone’s words uplifted them to do so. Maarva becomes the star of her own funeral via a post-humous hologram projected by B2EMO, a triumphant turn from Fiona Shaw as we see Maarva reflect on her history with Ferrix’s traditions and her own yearning to be inspired to believe in something bigger. And then she turns firebrand herself, as she’d hoped to be all her life, to remind her fellow beings that the Empire’s evil grows stronger in the face of comfortable inaction, rousing them to push back against its influence. She lights the spark, and Ferrix blazes into an all-out battle between the petrified Imperials and its inspired citizens.
