In brief, the reply is nope.
We do know that The Darkling is enormously affected by the brand new shadow monsters he retains round him for firm in season 2. Followers of the unique Grishaverse novels could already know them as “Nichevo’ya,” the Ravkan phrase for “nothing,” chosen by Kirigan to encourage worry in his enemies. He makes use of “merzost” to conjure them, which is a sort of magic broadly thought-about an abomination by the Grisha.
Nonetheless, the darkish magic Kirigan faucets into takes a toll on his well being, leaving him with excruciating ache and fixed torment. He is haunted by his personal creations, in different phrases, and we see him battle fairly a bit in season 2, determined to get assist. Though it initially seems he can management these monsters, the season 2 finale reveals he finally has about as a lot management over them as he does over Alina — which is to say, none.
