Summary
- Brian and Ellen's reunion is cut short by a clan call.
- The fiery cross signals a Jacobite uprising and separation.

The highly anticipated Season 2 of "Outlander: Blood of My Blood" is set to premiere later this month, but the joy for Brian Fraser and Ellen MacKenzie is short-lived. Their hard-won time together is immediately put on hold due to the escalating political climate.
As the fiery cross, a traditional signal for clan mobilization, begins to spread, Scotland's clans are called to action for a Jacobite uprising. This event forces the lovers apart, just moments after they finally achieved their goal of being together and free.
The series, a prequel to the popular "Outlander," focuses on the origins of key characters. It explores the love stories of Henry and Julia Beauchamp, Claire Fraser's parents, and Jamie Fraser's parents, Brian and Ellen, during pivotal moments in their lives.
