#miratrix

When Kamdor betrays his student and partner Miratrix, he tells her “I was just waiting for the right time to use you.” This line is really bizarre. So he just spent all this time with her, training and preserving her for years, in the hopes that one day he could benefit from throwing her away? Why? He literally was almost sealed inside a tiny crystal for eternity while saving her life; it’s only due to her own sense of loyalty to him that he was freed within two years.

Let’s say that this was an accident and he didn’t realize he could be trapped. Okay, then it would stand to reason he would be wary about putting himself in dangerous situations for her benefit after such a narrow escape, right?

Except he continued the behavior.

He allowed Will into their lair against his own better judgement because Miratrix wanted the guy around, which ultimately came back to bite them. He constantly takes the time during his fights to look for her and assist her when she’s struggling, even rushing to her side when she was injured in the battle with the Fearcats (which put them both in the perfect position to get blasted by Mig’s cannon). He lost the Star of Isis because he came back to get her when she was outnumbered by the Rangers instead of running home with it. Not to mention having to apparently fake concern all the time.

If he had just decided to cut ties with her because he (unfairly) blamed her for their failures, that would be fine. Heck, if he decided she was a liability since a lot of his worst defeats happened when he displayed care for her, even better. But to say he wasted all this time just for some hypothetical moment when sacrificing a good ally might come in handy? Boo!

Look at this teamwork!
