It has been a long month as fans of 'Legacies' waited for the show to return. This week, the "spinoff of a spinoff" returns with the tenth episode of its second season after a major reveal in the fall finale took viewers by surprise.

Since the season started, we had been teased with a new villain — a mysterious red-hooded figure — who was finally revealed to be the Necromancer in the previous episode. What are the Necromancer's intentions, besides perhaps take revenge on Malivore, and how does he intend to achieve them?

More importantly, could the Necromancer's return mean we could get some cameos of characters from 'The Originals' and 'The Vampire Diaries', in addition to Freya and Kai who have already been confirmed?

In Episode 9, the Necromancer's plans take a pause as he realizes that he is now a human and powerless. Perhaps the episode will reveal how and why this happened. Does this mean that Alaric and Hope could try and capture the Necromancer now that he has no defenses?

Meanwhile, now that everybody's memories are back, things might be a little awkward between Josie and Hope. While the two were immeasurably close in Season 1, Hope being erased from everyone's memories led to an inadvertent love triangle between the two friends and Landon. Ultimately, Landon chooses Hope.

However, Hope will try to med fences with Josie and will work with her to learn more about the mora miserium, or in muggle terms, the dark object.

The mora miserium is an object used by certain sects of witches that practice dark magic. The object is shaped like an hourglass and has the ability to negate the ill-effects of dark magic on the user. The effects are permanent, so long as the hourglass does not shatter.

Meanwhile, now that new character Sebastian and Lizzie are kind of an item, Alaric would certainly be interested to know whether this centuries-old vampire can be trusted. To help him with this endeavor, he enlists Landon's help.

'Legacies' airs on The CW on Thursday nights.
