    Personally, I don't believe it is impossible to make compelling narratives going forward with the WoL or even the Scions as a group, BUT is will take a talented writing team and probably some bold decisions to pull off. Ther current team is clearly not up to the task.
    I think the problem is....what threat tops what we've already faced. Like think about "Oh we go to the new world" when we've already flown to the edge of our universe and travelled to entire other dimensions and the moon; the journey to Tural feels like it is inconsequential in scale. The threats we face only persist because we permit them to do so; we've bested gods at this point and so a lizard man with 2 heads would likely not even have us break a sweat. Its like those Isekai anime where nothing presented as a threat to the protagonist is actually a threat because of how dizzyingly powerful they are - in the short term the power trip is fine; but I think we've hit the end of that.

    At this point the WoL is mostly following through with some of Emet's parting words, about how it was their duty to explore the rest of the world as the bearer of Azem's legacy, it's just that the writers completely botched almost every aspect of it.

    Evil versions of WoL and Scions from parallel dimension.

    Tbh it would be interesting to see antagonist that uses exactly same appearance data as our character.
