Now what actually intrigued me was what Lexa and Titus kept saying about the spirit of the Commander being the one who chooses the next Commander.

How would that even be possible? I mean they have to implant the chip, so it doesn't seem practical nor plausible that they implant in all of the novitiates, until they see the light or something like that. After whatching episode 9 and the talk between Titus and Clarke, right before he gave her the chip, i understood that they believe the one who survives the conclave, is the one the Commander chooses.

Well at least they believed that, until Lexa died and psycho Ontari appeared, now they don't anymore and that's why Titus killed himself (that and because he couldn't live with the guilt of killing Lexa of course).
