is Elijah's metal mask hiding more than his face? When Maggie Rhee (Lauren Cohan) returns to The Walking Dead in Season 10, it's with a masked fighter who rescues Aaron (Ross Marquand), Alden (Callan McAuliffe), and Father Gabriel (Seth Gilliam) from certain doom in the final battle of the Whisperer War. This zombie apocalypse ninja ultimately unmasks himself in "Home Sweet Home," revealing the face of Elijah (Cobra Kai's Okea Eme-Akwari): a frightened young man who fears the Reapers, masked marauders who razed the Wardens' village and killed Elijah's sister. But is this guardian angel really a Reaper?
