WARNING: Per wiki policy, Spoilers Off applies to Moments pages.

  • What happened with Morgan and Eric's child. Their newborn son, the child they wanted for who knows how long, is dying just after being born. And even with all their magic, the two Fae are powerless to do anything but watch. Sure, it worked out in the end, but to any parent, especially to one who has gone through the death of a newborn, the story is absolutely chilling.

  • The true form of the jorogumo. After her human disguise is broken, we are met with something from an arachnophobes worst nightmare. Horrific mashup of giant spider and human woman? Check. Extra Eyes and More Teeth than the Osmond Family? Check. Sadistic thrill in playing with her prey before killing them? Double check.

  • The fate of the girl that Izanami took as a vessel. We don't actually get to see her die, but we do see some of the aftermath: Three massive scars across her torso, and Izanami explaining that before she was able to take her corpse as a vessel, she first had to stitch the pieces back together. Most of them, anyway.
    • And given what she says about the vessels wearing out, it's likely not the first time she's done something like this.

  • The oni's death at the hands of the Yuki-onna Rin. After being tied to the ground with thorn-covered vines digging into his skin, a giant icicle punches through his chest. The oni spends his last moments clutching at the gore soaked spike before dying from his injuries.
