Just noticed something: look at the "knots" in the bends of the tentacles wrapped around Atsali.

If Castela doesn't recognize herself, she needs to look in the mirror...

Like the Myster said, but I do also- "not Really".

In some ways Castela is a lot older than even Katherine...
Also the Blackthorn has to learn to be humanoid, which means that Castela's "life" and (apparently) her memories start about ten years after Atsali's.

While I know that's Castela, I'm not seeing what you're talking about in the knots. I can't see it, unless you mean to say they look like the swirls on her cheeks.

That was my interpretation.

It would require a lot of explanation . . .

Maybe almost as much as what's required for 'Skin Horse'.

While none of these images are (so far) canon, any of the COULD be if Dan said so.

I thought about how I'd explain EGS to someone . . . it was interesting.

"See, that brunette is Elliot . . . he's really a guy. ANd the gal with the purple hair, she's really a guy too . . . well, sort of . . . and the other brunette is a squirrel shapeshifter . . ."
