Kind of light on the explanation. Like yes we got some miasma lore, but the specifics of what happened and why she thinks these two have a better chance than most, we were kind of told very little. Where the miasma came from seems not that important right now.

Yeah, pretty much. Right now it feels like the only reason those two would have a chance at succeeding where others, talented mages failed is plot armor. "If it's you too, I believe you might be able to create the perfect seal... for some reason."

I get that the story needed to infodump on Sol Oculus to progress the plot, but it was clumsy.

It’s not plot armor it’s the power of Yuri!

This but unironically. All the other saints that we know of have been able to use magic on their own, Nana and Luliam are the only ones who need to work together to purify the miasma. To boot, they need to be intimate to do it (and the more intimate, the better the outcome).
So yeah, the Power of Yuri.

(also, from the very start Luliam has had a lot of magic power, while Nana's seemed to be a pretty good caster, so I guess the question is whether that's due to some special reason or they're just talented)

Oh yeah I was only partly joking around, the power of love saving the day is a classic story beat. She-Ra being one of my favorite examples of “The power of Yuri/Love conquers all”.

Now that’s what I’m talking about lol

I'm mostly worried that they just spelled out the supposed endgame straight up, which kinda makes me feel it's because it has to happen soon :P

And now we know.

But damn if that rain didn't make me laugh way too much... :D

I assumed the archmage had summoned rain as a diversion.

I certainly got that feeling too after she used the chance to talk to Nana alone, but the actual moment it just suddenly hit with that force... :D
