HIS DARK MATERIALS: Dead Souls - Lord

The series draws parallels with the biblical story: Mary Malone plays the serpent-tempter, Lyra is Eve, and Will is Adam. There's also a personal drama: Lyra committed a "betrayal" in the past, abandoning her daemon Pan to save Roger. In the finale, she tries to atone for this mistake. The ending is bittersweet: due to the need to close the portals, Lyra and Will are forced to separate. They agree to each live their lives to the fullest, but once a year they will "meet"—sitting on the same bench in different worlds (in the Botanical Garden on Midsummer's Day). And after death, they will try to find each other. The final scene shows Lyra and Will, with their daemons, visiting this bench in different years.

Lord Asriel's War. Asriel gathers his forces and prepares for a decisive confrontation with Metatron, the Lord Regent of the Celestial Realm, who acts on behalf of the Overlord. Asriel views the Overlord as a usurper and seeks to create a "Celestial Republic." Episode 7 ("Clouded Mountain") reaches its climax: Asriel and Marisa Coulter lure Metatron into a trap and kill him. But the price is high—both heroes die. Mrs. Coulter's Storyline. Her drama reaches its peak. Marisa is torn between her duty to the Magisterium and her maternal love for Lyra. Ultimately, she sacrifices herself to help Asriel. Lyra and Will's Journey. After being separated, the heroes reunite to face grave trials. They travel to the Underworld to find the spirit of Roger (Lyra's friend) and help other souls. Lyra and Will open a window to another, "paradise" world and allow the souls of the dead to pass through—thus freeing them from their dreary purgatory and allowing them to become part of the multiverse. Mary Malone's story. An Oxford scholar finds herself in the world of the magical creatures Mulefam and studies Dust (called "sraf" in this dimension). She later finds herself in the "paradise" world and realizes that it is being drained of Dust—the basis of consciousness, thought, and imagination of all living things. If people were deprived of free will, the flow of Dust would cease. The theme of the Subtle Knife. Will continues to carry it. But there's an important nuance: every time the knife cuts a window between worlds, Dust leaks out of the living worlds, and dangerous creatures—Spectres—emerge. In the finale, Will is forced to break the knife so that the angels can close all the portals and stop the leak. Lyra and Will's coming-of-age storyline. Over the course of the season, the characters realize their feelings for each other. Lyra and Will's kiss becomes a symbol of their maturation and, in part, the "discovery" Mary Malone spoke of. At the same time, the characters' daemons take their final forms: Pantalaimon remains a marten, and Will's daemon, Kirjava, becomes a cat.

The seventh episode sees the final battle. Marisa Coulter and Lord Asriel trick Metatron into a trap and kill him—but die in the process.
Afterwards, Lyra and Will find a snow-white cube—the cage in which Metatron kept the Overlord. Will opens the cube with a knife, and inside they find a frail old man. He crumbles into dust: it turns out Metatron was keeping the Overlord alive so he could rule in his name.
In the eighth episode ("Botanical Garden"), Lyra and Will say goodbye. They agree to each live their lives to the fullest, but once a year they will "meet"—sit on the same bench in different worlds. And after death, they will try to find each other. The final scene shows Lyra and Will, with their daemons, visiting this bench in different years. The epilogue briefly recounts how the characters' subsequent lives unfolded: for example, Lyra's pursuit of science, as did her parents and Mary Malone.

Lord Asriel is gathering an army and preparing for war against Metatron, the Lord Regent of the Celestial Realm, who acts in the name of the Overlord. Asriel views the Overlord as a usurper and seeks to create a "Celestial Republic."
Marisa Coulter finds herself in a difficult situation: she alternately tries to protect her daughter and then comes into conflict with her. The series further developed her character arc, portraying a more complex and contradictory personality.
Will continues to explore his destiny. He will encounter angels and learn about his role in the coming conflict. In one episode, he encounters the armored bear Iorek Byrnison.
Mary Malone, an Oxford scholar, finds herself in the world of the magical creatures Mulefam and studies Dust (called "shraf" in this dimension). She later finds herself in a "paradise" world and realizes that Dust—the basis of consciousness and imagination of all living things—is being extracted from there.
Key Moment: Lyra and Will help the souls of the dead from the Underworld pass through a portal into this "paradise" world so that they become part of the multiverse instead of being stuck in purgatory.

Every person has a daemon—a physical embodiment of the soul in the form of an animal—and the powerful religious organization Magisterium strives to maintain power over the world. A person's soul is capable of taking the form of an animal—a daemon.
Damons are the female soul of a woman; these are people of this gender - (Girls and boys)
Damons are male souls; these are people of this gender - (Girls and boys)
If a person falls, so does the daemon; if a person is wounded, so does the daemon; if a person walks, so does the daemon; if a person reads, the daemon listens; if a person eats, the daemon can't; if a daemon attacks another, the daemon falls to the floor; if a daemon kills another, the daemon dies. If a person kills another, their daemon dissolves like dust.
When a person wanders far from their daemon, they scream in pain, as if their soul is being torn apart. And the daemon whines. During a long distance, the bond between a person and their daemon is weak, that is, vulnerable.
