The Sandman - Season of Mists
Making reference to several events from the show's First Season, the Second Season of The Sandman opens with a summoned meeting of the Endless called by his brother Destiny (Adrian Lester). Despite the sequence being a bit stilted, and the characters hilariously awkardly dressed, things go progress thanks to Death (Kirby Howell-Baptiste) who, unintentionally goading him into it, will lead Morpheus (Tom Sturridge) back into Hell with, or without, Lucifer's (Gwendoline Christie) permission. It seems the warning Destiny received from the Fates portending upheaval and change for the Endless has begun as the show kicks off its second, and final, season.
The flashbacks from the season premiere, which come out of Morpheus' discussion with Death, reveal a bit of the Lord of Dreams' relationship with Nada (Umulisa Gahiga) and how it began. There are several threads pulled on here including Morpheus making a visit to Lyta Hall's (Razane Jammal) sleeping baby, reaffirming Dream's troubled relationship with Desire (Mason Alexander Park), and fearing it might be their last chance for a meeting in some time, our protagonist sharing a drink with Hob Gadling (Ferdinand Kingsley) in his dreams. His cryptic wording to Lucienne (Vivienne Acheampong) tease that should something befall the Dreamlord this time steps have been taken to make sure his kingdom survives, whether he does or not.
