Burned so badly that he can't live without mechanical aid for the rest of his life?
Varrick did a lot to impress me this episode. I'm glad Varrick didn't just hand the weapon over and I loved the part where he said. "You did the thing!" Personally I believe Bataar is playing with fire and he's going to learn the hard way that powerful technology poses risk to everyone involved. Not that I'm against technology I just don't believe he's going to take the needed safety measures. Kind of like our early experiments with radiation.
That would seem an appropriate death for him. Laying in bed with extreme damage to the DNA to the point that his body is literally falling apart and the only thing that's certain is even water bending won't be saving him.
Indeed. Regardless of Varrick's reservations on using spirit nukes, and him witnessing their destructive potential, the kid is still gung-ho on messing around with an unstable energy source in order to please his dear leader. I have a feeling that no matter what happens to him from here on out i'll be unable to empathize or sympathize with his character.
Oh, am I'm the only one who thinks that Kuvira is planning to conquer Republic City since it used to be Earth Kingdom territory?
