This is the final season.[3]
Season Summary[]
Set at the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young & Gifted, LEGACIES tells the ongoing story of a new generation of students as they grapple with their familial destinies and fight to find their place in a world that doesn't know they exist... or how much it depends on them. In season three, Hope Mikaelson faced her worst fear when Landon Kirby was revealed to be possessed by her nemesis and his father — Malivore. As season four begins, Hope must choose between saving the boy she loves and ending Malivore's threat once and for all. This choice will have life-changing consequences for Alaric Saltzman and the Super Squad. Working together, these young and powerful vampires, witches and werewolves, led by Lizzie and Josie Saltzman, MG, Cleo, Kaleb and their human friend Ethan will face their darkest and most deadly threat of all... and The Salvatore School will be torn apart in the process.[4]
