Devastated at the very notion he could ever abandon his son, Xavier promises David that he loves him deeply and will do everything he can to protect him and give him a good life it may be Legion's most emotionally arresting moment. After Farouk shared his plan with Xavier, David was recalled to the astral plane, where he finally has the talk with his father he's needed all his life. With David engaged in combat with the past Farouk, the present Farouk and Xavier share a drink in the astral plane, as the former explains to the latter who his son has truly become.įarouk, in his own way, cares deeply for David, as they shared the same mind and body for decades he developed a twisted sort of paternal love for the man he slowly drove insane out of revenge. While this may be a younger, rawer version of Charles Xavier than we're used to seeing, he's still fundamentally the same man. While he initially agrees to help David kill Farouk, the reluctance to take a life is written all over his face it's no surprise that Charles decides to find another way. Surprisingly, David ended up getting what he wanted in Legion's ending, but not in exactly the way he thought he would. With the help of mutant time traveler Switch, David was indeed able to arrive in the past just before Xavier and Farouk had their fateful confrontation, fully intending to kill Farouk and reclaim his freedom.

He's spent most of the third and final season attempting to reset the timeline to suit his own needs, so that Farouk would never haunt him he could then, presumably, lead a better life. The combination of David's mutant abilities and mental illness, as well as Farouk's influence, made him a dangerous, unpredictable force, and by the end of season 2, David had become Legion's antagonist rather than its hero.

Xavier thought he had vanquished him, but Farouk's essence survived and attached itself to baby David. The Shadow King - real name Amahl Farouk - was a powerful mutant who attempted to lull Xavier into a trap, but he was defeated by the future X-Men leader.
