How does three sets of DNA in her - Gorn, Human and Illyrian - translate to having all the abilities of all races that have faced evil?

That bit right there is like a glob of glue along the seam where this Beholder plot was glued to the gorn cliffhanger.

Is any of this Beholder stuff foreshadowed before Batel fights Gamble the first time? I try to be a careful watcher, but it came outta left field for me.

Wish they would have leaned harder into reimagining Inner Light and less into boring chosen-one-stuff.
