Season 6 just dropped! I just finished and I’m absolutely blown away! I can’t wait to see your reaction! It’s the best thing Dragon Prince has ever done!
I thought that was odd too. Maybe only Viren could hear Aaravos? But even then, Terry should have heard Viren talking. Maybe Terry was just so worried about Claudia, and thought Viren was still catatonic, that he didn't notice Viren walked away?
I was absolutely delighted to see Avizandum again, I still hope we eventually get to see a flashback of him imprisoning Aaravos, and I agree, it is nice to see him from Zubeia's memory/perspective, especially since a number of people seem have taken Rex Igneous's words as ironclad, indisputable truth, seeming to forget that Rex (while not strictly untrue) was clearly biased in his perspective, not to mention very behind the times since it all comes from 80 years ago, probably before Avizandum even knew he was going to be a dad, and I've heard that parenthood can change a person's perspective/priorities. And besides, I say to myself, would someone like Zubeia have truly loved him, been so grief-stricken at his (and their son's presumed) death that she fell into a death-like sleep if he didn't have at least a few truly positive qualities to his character? I also can't help but add that I think Avizandum's death may one of, if not the, saddest, most gut-wrenching Dragon death in movie/TV currently (probably because most Dragons killed on screen were flat-out villains like Smaug, Vermithrax and Maleficent, so slightly different); honestly, the only one that comes even remotely close to me is one that happened in another Netflix show, DOTA Dragons Blood (if you've watched it, you might be able to guess the referenced incident, if not, I will remain anonymous on the matter, and would recommend watching/reacting to it). I found myself pleasantly surprised/hopeful for Zubeia when that Mushroom Mage showed up, but I'm still worried that her recovery won't be fast enough for her to regain her full strength to keep Sol Regem from challenging/overthrowing her once he himself is healed, or if TBMH starts hunting down Zym. While an interesting thought, I don't see how this mage's skillset, that seems to the utilisation of mushrooms and fungi in the application of medicinal treatment, can be used to purify an inorganic object like the Sunforge. As for Viren wandering away from the beach, while it does seem (and might very well be) controversial, I can see him distancing himself from Claudia to keep her from killing the Homunculus before time runs out; and as for trying to dissuade her from continuing these actions, he already tried that during the climb up the Storm Spire in the previous season, and she slapped him in the face as if he was talking insanity, and he might not want his last moments with his daughter to see her in tears, disregarding his own wishes (again), and desperately trying to force him to preform the spell. As for the Homunculus copying Claudia's actions, I attribute that less towards sinister undertones, and interpret it more like a child copying the actions of the adults around him. In regards to Ezran's absence, an argument/disagreement is certainly plausible and may be a contributing factor, but I lean more towards him being preoccupied in trying to find the best place to hide the prison again, which probably isn't as easy as it might sound. See you next series, whenever that may be, if not sooner
25:10 Yeah, i think Claudia is the one doing the permanent spell, its part of the character arc we have seen since S3 finale I just hope they didn't kill Viren OUTSIDE SCREEN, it would be VERY anticlimatic, you might be wondering why i say this, the credits sketches, S4 sketches showed us how Viren passout after the finale, and they might have done the same here, I REALLY HOPE THEY DIDN'T
I'd be shocked if Viren died off screen. With the build up towards the resurrection spell the last couple seasons, you're right, it would be extremely anti-climatic. And him wanting to pass away versus Claudia wanting to save his life will create interesting conflict between them.
@@Dare_to_Nerd I think this conflict between Claudia and Viren will make Viren join temporarily to the good guys... Or cause his dead indirectly, it's one in two shots, 50/50
Even if Viren is dead (which I’m not convinced he is given how little I trust Aaravos’ word) we know he’s still gonna be an active part of the series. The Dragon Prince website posted a QnA after season 4, where they promised we’d have a scene where Viren and Soren confront each other over what happened at the Storm Spire. While they did release a short story on the website called Strangers that does go into this a little, I have a feeling that they were referring to an actual scene in the show. If he’s not alive, maybe he’ll be able to interact with the characters with Team Zym as a spirit.
it’s not really a symbolic child if he was made from both of their blood. biologically he is their child 😭. also if he wasn’t actually their child the sacrifice wouldn’t work because he literally needs the blood of a child that is Viren’s.
@@hannahburke7328 I'm pretty sure Claudia kills Sir Sparklepuff to regrow her leg since she is covered in blood in the Season 6 trailer. I bet that causes Viren to live as well.
14:26 The symbol on Aaravos’ book is the same one on the back of the Soul Coins’ holding Rayla’s family. It’s called Deep Magic, and it has some connections with Stars and souls. Given also the visuals used in Viren’s nightmare when he saved Soren as a child, and the fact that he put Rayla’s family in the coins in the first place, it makes me wonder if Viren dabbled in deep magic to save Soren. Maybe he had to drain the life of someone else to save Soren? Like what if that’s why Kpp’ar is in the coin, so Viren could resurrect him later after using his body to save Soren? Or maybe Kpp’ar had somehow come across a Qusar diamond in his search for a unicorn and Viren used it to make a new body for Soren’s spirit as he passed? And if Callum fails to get the diamonds from the Celestial Elves next season, could he possibly dabble in deep magic to free Rayla’s family?
I noticed the symbol from the cursed coins earlier, Deep Magic better not require sacrifice, as for the Quasar Diamonds, The Purple Gem On Viren's Staff Has to be a corrupted Quasar Diamond.
@@hannahburke7328 That’s what I’m guessing! Especially since it was made by Aaravos and Claudia needed it to free the homunculus from the cocoon, so there is definitely a connection to the stars. Maybe Viren did use it to save Soren, but required a some rare ingredients or took a huge tool on him physically and psychologically, which is why he doesn’t tell Claudia to do it to him after the 30 day limit. Since the next season is called Stars, and Aaron Ehasz said on his Twitter that we will learn why Viren put his mentor in the coin, maybe we’ll get a flashback next season or Kpp’ar will get out of the coin and tell us what happened.
32:10 I also think that Ezran and Soren might feel conflicted about Rayla wanting to free Runnan, since he was the one who killed King Harrow and Ezrans father. Soren might also feel that freeing Runnan is a bad idea, given how he also wanted to kill Ezran. We know from the Moonshadow elf tradition of binding that they are very dedicated to seeing their missions through to the end. We also know that Soren was defending the castle when the assassins attacked, so he probably helped kill a few of Runnans comrades. I can imagine Runnan feeling betrayed to see Rayla friends with not only Ezran, but the guard who helped kill their comrades and the son of the man who put him in that coin in the first place.
@@hannahburke7328 I know, but I can see Runnan holding it against them nonetheless. I hope he does get out of the coin next season so we have time to unpack all of this drama. And maybe while Callum and Rayla are going to get the blade and the diamonds, Soren and Ezran might be off on their own side mission. Maybe to hide the prison somewhere else, or to find Claudia, or see what happened to Zubeia.
I’m not convinced that this is the end for Viren. Mainly because of something said in the season 4 QnA posted on the Dragon Prince website, where they said we would have a scene where Viren and Soren confront each other over what happened at the Storm Spire. Since we haven’t had that this season, that means that Viren has to come back next season, maybe as a spirit or he’s alive. Aaron Ehasz also said something in the interview on the Reel James interview and on his Twitter, basically asking us to question whether Aaravos can be trusted about Viren’s resurrection, or if he’s a liar. It’s possible that the spell Claudia casted was already permanent, and the 30 limit was a way to push her to free him. And maybe the Infantis sanguine spell was to test Viren’s conviction to dark magic. I hope I’m right because this season has made Viren an even more compelling character to me, and I need to see where his story goes from here. Most of all though, I need to see Soren finally stand up to his father on his own terms. Not while he’s tied up and gagged like in season 4. But able to stand tall as the strong and kind man that Viren beloved he could never be! Let’s do a test. Everyone watching this video, Leave a like on this comment if you think I’m right!
Yeah, I don't think this is the last we'll see of Viren. The scene they were talking about where Soren confronts him may have been the short story, "Strangers", but I agree that I want to see Soren confront his father on his own terms. There's still a lot for them to say to each other. I've never trusted that Aaravos was being forthcoming about the resurrection spell. It's possible Aaravos wanted Viren to sacrifice the homunculus for a different spell, and not the resurrection spell.
@@Dare_to_NerdHe’s definitely lying. He told Claudia that she needed him to make the spell permanent. But then he just told Viren not only how to make it permanent, but also that he could do it BEFORE Aaravos actually got out of the prison. He could’ve just told Claudia to sacrifice the homunculus after it came out of the cocoon. This proves that he isn’t someone who can be trusted regarding the specifics of this spell.
24:30 I think the reason he left without talking to Clauida was out of guilt for the dark path he led her down. He knows that if he stayed, there would be no talking her out of saving his life. By going off to die alone, he hopes to give Clauida the chance to grieve and let him go instead of spending her life chasing like he did. However, by leaving without saying goodbye, it’s only to make Claudia think that he blames her for failing to save him. She doesn’t know that he had the chance to save himself and refused. She’s going to think she failed him, and want revenge on Team Zym.
@@Dare_to_Nerd And if Viren is alive, Aaravos would probably do his best to keep him and Clauida apart, since if Claudia sees that he’s alive she’ll know he’s been lying to her. So Viren might be forced to turn to Soren to help him save her. This could be how we get the confrontation between them I’ve been waiting for!
@@hannahburke7328 Or, since we know that Aaravos can possess anyone who used dark magic and he and Viren have a connection, what if he possess. Viren’s body before he dies, performs the sacrifice, and traps Viren’s soul in his body the prison while he pretends to be Viren to Claudia. Then he works to find the gang and get the prison so he can get his old body back.
Its amazing how they were able to show Callum and Rayla's romance this season without ever having them kiss. All the same, next season, I better see them kiss.
I was so sad when I saw Janai crying at the end 😭 Maybe Aaravos is sending her the dreams? I’m so mad at Miyana for betraying her and her betrayal actually really had consequences for the kingdom. I mean Karim’s betrayal of course hurt her bc it’s her brother, but he couldn’t actually achieve anything. It was Miyana taking the sun seed and all those people with her that made a big difference. I hope I explained it well Also I think Viren went more to the woods so Claudia couldn’t kill Sparklepuff And although I don’t support Claudia I did feel bad for her when she lost her leg. Maybe it can be healed but maybe not since she was already using dark magic when it happened?
I've considered that Khessa's spirit is sending Janai the dreams. I think Sir Sparklepuff is still on the beach with Terry. I seems like Viren just needed a moment alone to come to terms/mourn his impending death and the choices that led him here. Considering you can bring people back from the dead, I imagine there's a spell that can regrow lost limbs. But maybe the writers will come up with some rule that prevents Claudia from doing that, since regrowing it will seriously lessen the impact of that scene.
I think he’s gonna BECOME the arch dragon of Star. Remember how he tired to help Viren absorb Zym and Zubeia’s magic in season 3, and how he made Luna Tenebris disappear and “swallowed” two Sunfire queens? Maybe when he absorbs enough magic, he’ll use that power to destroy the other Star touch elves, since the reflections stories “Patience” and “Ripples” on the dragon prince website say that he wants to take revenge on the elves who casted him out. What I think will happen is that Karim will use the sun seed to heal Sol Regeam, and then he’ll challenge Zubeia for the throne while she’s still weak from the corruption. And then, he’ll try to wipe out the human kingdoms. Since that what he was going to do to Elarion, and many of the Sunfire elves blame the humans for what happened to Liz Aurea. So maybe Callum will free Aaravos since he’s the only one who could stop him. And then Aaravos will absorb Sol Regeam’s magic, and then he’ll turn into the Star dragon.
I like how with this, Callum seeing his mother in his dark magic dream, and Viren speaking with Harrow earlier this season, they leave it vague whether this is just a memory of a loved one speaking to them, or if the dark magic is allowing them to connect with their actual spirits from the other side. Dark magic is literally tied to both life and death itself, and Aaron Ehasz said in his tweets that he wants to keep the dreams open to interpretation, but he does think it’s possible.
@@LauraM96829 That would be cool. I can totally believe that Sarai's spirit came to help Callum in his dream. Although, I don't think Viren was speaking with Harrow's real spirit mainly because he said, "Your soul is my treasure," and started doing dark magic.
21:50 I’m not a fan of how to whole Zubeia infection subplot was resolved by some random character we’ve never seen just appearing out of nowhere and healing her. I feel like there was a lot of cool story potential they just threw away. Like maybe we could’ve had a conflict where the gang had to kill her if they couldn’t find a cure, and maybe Callum would fee Aaravos in order to save her. However, with Karim now possessing the Sun Seed and planning to use it to heal Sol Regeam, there’s still a chance that something could come from this. Maybe Sol will challenge Zubeia while she’s weak and take the throne by force, and will then want to unite the dragons and elves to wipe out the human kingdoms, and thats what pushes Callum to free Aaravos to stop him.
I can see that. I always struggle between wanting no harm to come to the characters I like, and wanting interesting conflict because that's what making a good story. In a way, I was looking forward to seeing how Callum and the group would handle a corrupted Zubeia. I could see Sol Regem, or another Archdragon, taking control while Zubeia was out of commission, which probably would have led to a lot of conflict between Xadia and the human kingdoms. Perhaps the writers decided there was a lot of conflict already and didn't want to take tension away from the main plot of stopping Aaravos. Still, after all the buildup with Zubeia becoming more and more corrupted, it did seem a bit anti-climatic to have a random Earthblood elf heal her.
@@Dare_to_Nerd It feels like they only added this subplot so the gang couldn’t have Zubeia just fly them to the Sea of the Castout and get there before Claudia. I wouldn’t mind the mushroom mage healing her so much if there had been any buildup to him being a thing earlier. Literally, all it would’ve taken was for Terry to say something earlier in season 5 like, “You know, Claudia. There’s an old legend among the Earthblood Elves about a Mushroom Mage who can heal almost any wound or infection. Maybe if we sing the Mushroom Mage song, he’ll come heal your dad out of his coma!” Hiding the foreshadowing in a joke would’ve actually been really effective.
@@spencerpalmer4961 I am out of the country until September 1st, and the wifi hasn't been great. There's not really a good place to record either. I decided to wait until I can make a better recording.
So, this theory is WAY out there and there's not any real evidence to support it, which is why I never mentioned it. I wondered if Aaravos was actually a Star Devourer dragon in disguise - or he was trapped in an elf body - and that's why he was cast down from the stars. There's an image of a Star Devourer dragon on the constellation chart in the intro. According the the Dragon Prince Wiki, "Star Devourer Dragons are notorious for swallowing the magic stored within the core of stars themselves... as their mere sight plunges a person into delirium, leaving no evidence of the dragon's true appearance. Sunfire Elves practice an ancient chant that repels these dragons from approaching Xadia and its sun." Perhaps the "ancient chant" that keeps Xadia's sun protected has to do with the Sunforge. That would explain why Aaravos would want to corrupt it. Also, "Swallowing the magic stored within the core of the stars" sounds a lot like dark magic, and Aaravos is the one who taught the humans dark magic. After recording this video, I watched the full interview with Aaron Ehasz. Ehasz made a point of connecting the bones at the bottom of the sea to what Aaravos said about swallowing Aditi. So NOW I'm wondering if those bones are Aaravos's true body. I mean, him landing on the planet is what created the Sea of the Castout, and those bones are right smack-dab in the middle. Sorry for the long reply. This theory has been poking around in my mind for a while.

You’re in for some shocking surprises and twists in this season
Now Claudia is really living up to her name.
18:55 Let It Out, Callum! This Is Symbolism Of Letting Claudia Go Back In Viren's Dungeon When He Chained Her.
Was Terry just not listening when Viren was taking to Aaravos, and then he just let him walk away? How do you think he explained that to Claudia?
I thought that was odd too. Maybe only Viren could hear Aaravos? But even then, Terry should have heard Viren talking. Maybe Terry was just so worried about Claudia, and thought Viren was still catatonic, that he didn't notice Viren walked away?
@@Dare_to_NerdProbably, lets remember last thing he knew was Viren having his fever dream

And although I don’t support Claudia I did feel bad for her when she lost her leg. Maybe it can be healed but maybe not since she was already using dark magic when it happened?
Karim and Miyana Both Deserve The Death Penalty, as for Claudia And Terry, They Might Run Into Kruha.
@@hannahburke7328 what or who is Kruha?
@@weisserdrachey Kruha is a character in the graphic novel, "Puzzle House".
@@Dare_to_Nerd ah ok thanks
I've considered that Khessa's spirit is sending Janai the dreams.
I think Sir Sparklepuff is still on the beach with Terry. I seems like Viren just needed a moment alone to come to terms/mourn his impending death and the choices that led him here.
Considering you can bring people back from the dead, I imagine there's a spell that can regrow lost limbs. But maybe the writers will come up with some rule that prevents Claudia from doing that, since regrowing it will seriously lessen the impact of that scene.

so i'm not the only one who headcanons Aaravos is/was a star dragon/archdragon-
I think he’s gonna BECOME the arch dragon of Star. Remember how he tired to help Viren absorb Zym and Zubeia’s magic in season 3, and how he made Luna Tenebris disappear and “swallowed” two Sunfire queens?
Maybe when he absorbs enough magic, he’ll use that power to destroy the other Star touch elves, since the reflections stories “Patience” and “Ripples” on the dragon prince website say that he wants to take revenge on the elves who casted him out.
What I think will happen is that Karim will use the sun seed to heal Sol Regeam, and then he’ll challenge Zubeia for the throne while she’s still weak from the corruption. And then, he’ll try to wipe out the human kingdoms. Since that what he was going to do to Elarion, and many of the Sunfire elves blame the humans for what happened to Liz Aurea.
So maybe Callum will free Aaravos since he’s the only one who could stop him. And then Aaravos will absorb Sol Regeam’s magic, and then he’ll turn into the Star dragon.
@Nightfire958 oh God that's actually terrifying to think about-
7:21 Zubeia's Having A Fever Dream, In A Way She Needed This.
Yes, she really needed to see and speak with Avizandum one last time.
I like how with this, Callum seeing his mother in his dark magic dream, and Viren speaking with Harrow earlier this season, they leave it vague whether this is just a memory of a loved one speaking to them, or if the dark magic is allowing them to connect with their actual spirits from the other side.
Dark magic is literally tied to both life and death itself, and Aaron Ehasz said in his tweets that he wants to keep the dreams open to interpretation, but he does think it’s possible.
@@LauraM96829 That would be cool. I can totally believe that Sarai's spirit came to help Callum in his dream.
Although, I don't think Viren was speaking with Harrow's real spirit mainly because he said, "Your soul is my treasure," and started doing dark magic.
@@Dare_to_Nerd Unless Harrow’s ghost wanted to scare Viren straight or get some karma for him trying to kill his sons!
@@LauraM96829 Maybe. Still, the exact phrasing didn't sound like something Harrow would say.
21:50 I’m not a fan of how to whole Zubeia infection subplot was resolved by some random character we’ve never seen just appearing out of nowhere and healing her.
I feel like there was a lot of cool story potential they just threw away. Like maybe we could’ve had a conflict where the gang had to kill her if they couldn’t find a cure, and maybe Callum would fee Aaravos in order to save her.
However, with Karim now possessing the Sun Seed and planning to use it to heal Sol Regeam, there’s still a chance that something could come from this. Maybe Sol will challenge Zubeia while she’s weak and take the throne by force, and will then want to unite the dragons and elves to wipe out the human kingdoms, and thats what pushes Callum to free Aaravos to stop him.
I can see that. I always struggle between wanting no harm to come to the characters I like, and wanting interesting conflict because that's what making a good story.
In a way, I was looking forward to seeing how Callum and the group would handle a corrupted Zubeia. I could see Sol Regem, or another Archdragon, taking control while Zubeia was out of commission, which probably would have led to a lot of conflict between Xadia and the human kingdoms.
Perhaps the writers decided there was a lot of conflict already and didn't want to take tension away from the main plot of stopping Aaravos. Still, after all the buildup with Zubeia becoming more and more corrupted, it did seem a bit anti-climatic to have a random Earthblood elf heal her.
@@Dare_to_NerdWe Don't Know If The Mushroom Mage Healed Zubeia Completely Yet, His Earthblood Magic Might Have Kept The Corruption At Bay.
@@hannahburke7328 That would make more sense and would keep that subplot going.
@@Dare_to_Nerd It feels like they only added this subplot so the gang couldn’t have Zubeia just fly them to the Sea of the Castout and get there before Claudia.
I wouldn’t mind the mushroom mage healing her so much if there had been any buildup to him being a thing earlier.
Literally, all it would’ve taken was for Terry to say something earlier in season 5 like, “You know, Claudia. There’s an old legend among the Earthblood Elves about a Mushroom Mage who can heal almost any wound or infection. Maybe if we sing the Mushroom Mage song, he’ll come heal your dad out of his coma!”
Hiding the foreshadowing in a joke would’ve actually been really effective.

So, this theory is WAY out there and there's not any real evidence to support it, which is why I never mentioned it. I wondered if Aaravos was actually a Star Devourer dragon in disguise - or he was trapped in an elf body - and that's why he was cast down from the stars.
There's an image of a Star Devourer dragon on the constellation chart in the intro.
According the the Dragon Prince Wiki, "Star Devourer Dragons are notorious for swallowing the magic stored within the core of stars themselves... as their mere sight plunges a person into delirium, leaving no evidence of the dragon's true appearance. Sunfire Elves practice an ancient chant that repels these dragons from approaching Xadia and its sun."
Perhaps the "ancient chant" that keeps Xadia's sun protected has to do with the Sunforge. That would explain why Aaravos would want to corrupt it. Also, "Swallowing the magic stored within the core of the stars" sounds a lot like dark magic, and Aaravos is the one who taught the humans dark magic.
After recording this video, I watched the full interview with Aaron Ehasz. Ehasz made a point of connecting the bones at the bottom of the sea to what Aaravos said about swallowing Aditi. So NOW I'm wondering if those bones are Aaravos's true body. I mean, him landing on the planet is what created the Sea of the Castout, and those bones are right smack-dab in the middle.
Sorry for the long reply. This theory has been poking around in my mind for a while.
