The CW have released an official description for the upcoming thirteenth episode of Arrow‘s second season, titled “Heir to the Dragon.”Starring Ra’s al Ghul’s daughter Nyssa Raatko, the episode centers largely on Black Canary, who finds herself once again back in Starling City, hunted by the League of Assassins and under pressure from her family and Oliver to stay behind and help piece Laurel’s deteriorating life back together.And over all of it, of course, is the shadow of Ra’s al Ghul, who appears poised to be a threat to either Oliver, Slade, Merlyn or all of the above by the time the season wraps. The question of when, and whether, we’ll see him in person is arguably the biggest mystery left in the season so far, although it seems likely given the pace of this year that they will introduce at least one more along the way.Spartacus‘s Katrina Law debuts as Nyssa, while Alex Kingston returns as Dinah Lance, the mother of Laurel and Sara.ARROW S02E13 – Heir To The Demon(8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV) ALEX KINGSTON AND KATRINA LAW (“SPARTACUS”) GUEST STAR — As Laurel (Katie Cassidy) continues to unravel, Oliver (Stephen Amell) and Lance (Paul Blackthorne) try to convince Sara (guest star Caity Lotz) to stay in Starling City and finally reunite with Laurel and Dinah (guest star Alex Kingston).
