![]() ![]() In Season 2, the Fold is more of a threat than before, as it is getting bigger. So they wait for a Sun Summoner to tear down the Fold, and many seem to believe Alina will be the one to do it. Since then, the Fold has been haunting Ravka for hundreds of years, and though they have learned to live with it, it still creates problems for Ravka. But, afterward, the Darkling couldn't undo what he'd done, and shadow consumed the once-lush land. So it's unclear if the Darkling intended to create it in the first place.
