The irony in Outlander's fan-favorite character Murtagh Fitzgibbons' rebellion against the Redcoats

Murtagh, the blacksmith that Young Ian approached to fix a horse bit, seemed least interested and said he would do it only if he was paid a whopping amount of 21 shillings

Starz's hit drama 'Outlander,' adapted from Diana Gabaldon's book series of the same name has a life of its own now, especially after the character Murtagh Fitzgibbons played by (Duncan Lacroix) was seen alive, well and rebelling in season 4 of the time-traveling drama.

Now, fans fraught with 'Droughtlander,' are ruminating about Murtagh's ultimate fate after season 4's cliffhanger, and sadly, we cannot even turn to the books for answers. Season 4 ended with Murtagh's life in jeopardy along with Jamie Fraser's (Sam Heughan). Soon after Brianna Fraser and Roger MacKenzie reunited in River Run, a team of horses come with Redcoats, with a special message for Jamie Fraser from Governor William Tryon.
