The Rise, Fall, and Rise of L’Rell.
From humble beginnings as a follower of T’Kuvma, L’Rell comes to support Voq, the Torchbearer, with whom she develops a relationship that proves beneficial. But when Kol uses her to captain a ship in his fleet—only to find that she has conspired with Admiral Cornwell—the trust she has earned is lost. Then, with hope seemingly gone, a hydro bomb lands in her lap—compliments of the Federation. With the power to destroy Qo’nos now in her hands, L’Rell rises again, ascending to the role of Chancellor—or Mother—of the Klingon Empire.
In this episode of The Edge, hosts Amy Nelson and Patrick Devlin discuss L’Rell’s journey from follower to leader. What are her motivations? Do they change throughout the first two seasons? Was she really a believer of T’Kuvma’s teaching? Is she searching for unlimited power over her people? Does she truly want to unite the Klingon houses as one family? Yeah, we have a lot of questions … and maybe a few answers.
