Rather than recast, though given the direction of the season, it’s unlikely this was considered at all, Boniadi’s character Bronwyn insteadsuccumbed to a wound sustained at the end of Season 1, leaving behind a devastated Arondir, as well as her equally devastatedteenage son Theo (Tyroe Muhafidin)....
