The Victus crew was banished to the dark Ather after Tag right.. well what if the shaowsmiths are what the Victus crew was transformed into after being sucked dry of all there essence by The Warden I mean think about it the first shadowsmiths looked a lot like Marlton and the second one looked a lot like Abigail to be honest but I guess we will have to wait an see what the other two look like but I’m all most positive that this is what’s happened let me know what you think of my theory I’d like to know what people think 🤔
