Yeah, the even if Sam is freed of Himiko she will still have to deal with the fallout of this arc, which I think would be a good thing as it's building stories rather then acting like it never happened. However, another possibility is that Jonah will be be the one who dies, which is also something I would rather avoid but if I may to be completely honest, if it comes down between choosing between Jonah and Sam I'm going to choose Sam over Jonah and I think there is a bit of set up for it from the Spore.

Note the following, in issue 3 Lara has a moment where she wonder what she would do without Jonah, issue 4 has a moment where Lara thinks back to friends and Ghosts that are still with her and this is done after Jonah is mentioned. Also in issue 4 and later in issue 6 Jonah saves Lara from certain death and in both cases it's mentioned how lucky it is that Jonah is around, very reinstatement to how Roth saved Lara in A Survivor is Born.

Again I want to make it clear that I DON'T want either Jonah or Sam to die and I could be looking at hints that aren't actually there. However, it is possible that the whole thing with Sam is being used to distract us from the one who will really die and given that this arc is being called Choice and Sacrifice it's almost certain that someone or something is going to be lost.

Come November 17th to 18th when the first issue of the next arc is announced I guess will get a hint as to how this arc will end.
