Great movie and worthy prequel. In fact probably one of the best prequels ever.

The only thing I would have liked better for her arm is that she cut it off on purpose since the map was on there. It seemed tad strange that it was "just" an accident instead of a decision by someone who, even as a child, was constantly calculating and planning. Still tragic that it was an accident, so I'm 50/50 on it.
I wasn't sure about the odd bit at the end where Dementus is talking about life before the collapse. He didn't ask for what happened to his children and it certainly broke him and turned him into Dementus but also it was just a little too late for morality and sympathy for this terrible guy.
It didn't seem like an accident to me at all. I thought they made it pretty clear that she cut her own arm off in order to escape Dementus and his crew. I will say that I was expecting that map to have something to do with the reason she lost it, like maybe an enemy cut it off to steal the map. Great movie though! While I still think Fury Road is the best movie in the franchise, Furiosa is very close behind.
Maybe it's meant to be some kind of foreshadowing: just like her arm with the tattoo on it, that place will be gone/lost forever. It also happens just when Praetorian Jack is murdered - and with him the last person in her world that she felt some kind of human connection to. Meaning: now she's completely cut loose.
I think it was written in as a red herring for audiences to go "oh *that's* why it wasn't there in Fury Road" and then same with the injury. It's George Miller effing with the audience.
