Ep 1. Serpent Looking to the Heavens

In the first episode of Jormungand season 2, titled "Serpent Looking to the Heavens," the story picks up where season 1 left off. Koko Hekmatyar and her team of arms dealers are still on the move and making deals all over the world.

The episode opens with Koko and her team on a mission to deliver weapons to a Middle Eastern country. As they arrive at the airport, they're greeted by a group of hostile soldiers, but Koko remains calm and collected, using her wit and charm to diffuse the situation. Eventually, they're allowed to pass through customs, but not before they catch the attention of a mysterious young girl.

Meanwhile, we're introduced to a new character named Hex, a former CIA agent who's now working as a freelance assassin. Hex is hired to take out Koko's team, but he has his own agenda and is playing both sides. He's a complex character who seems to have a personal vendetta against Koko, but his true motivations are still a mystery.

As Koko and her team travel through the desert, they make a pit stop at an abandoned gas station to rest and refuel. It's here that we learn more about the girl they encountered at the airport, whose name is R.

R is a child soldier who's been rescued by Koko and her team, and she's still traumatized from her experiences in the war-torn country where she's from. She's also gifted with a unique ability to calculate trajectories and predict where gunfire will hit, making her an asset to Koko's team.

But R's presence also adds a new dynamic to the group, as they struggle to balance their dangerous and morally questionable profession with their newfound responsibility to protect R and keep her safe.

As they continue on their journey, Koko and her team encounter more obstacles and threats, but they're never without a plan and their trusty arsenal of weapons. The episode ends on a cliffhanger as Hex makes his move, and it becomes clear that Koko and her team are in for a dangerous and unpredictable ride in season 2.

Overall, "Serpent Looking to the Heavens" sets up the new season of Jormungand with the same action-packed thrills and morally complex storytelling that fans have come to expect from the series. It introduces new characters and conflicts while also continuing the arcs of existing characters, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats and eager to see where the story will go next.
