i love when stories incorporate a variety of religions and religious expressions into the mix & wakanda forever opened with shuri saying “bast if you let me save my brother i will never doubt you again,” showed namor being cursed by a spanish friar as a “child without love” when he was there to bury his mother out of love for her and her love for the surface world, let both shuri and namor’s grief and vengeance blind them to the everlasting presence of their mothers in their lives… and i really LOVED that seeing their mothers in what could have been their last moments doesn’t shift their entire worldview, just tells them that the people we loved never truly leave us, and that there are more important things than getting even, and sometimes it’s possible to know and be known by person so well that they live on inside us whether we like it or understand it or not
