I have an idea for what that creature was that they fought at the beginning of the episode. During the fight, Matt said something interesting, the creature siphons magic. It did nothing against Orym, but he doesn’t have innate magic. I wonder— is that thing Aeor’s version of the Taxmen? Aeor was clever, it had spies everywhere and in EXU: Calamity it felt like Avalir and Aeor were direct rivals. What if someone saw the Taxmen that Nydas made and took that information back to Aeor? The taxmen siphoned magic and dealt damage “proportional to the highest spell slot a person is holding” in the Age of Arcanum that would be pretty helpful, and the fact that Matt specifically said that creature was trying to take something from Orym and said, “Well your a fighter, you’re fine.” Reminds me so much of the Taxmen. If that thing had hit someone like Imogen or Fearne, I could see Matt asking for their highest spell slot. I don’t know if I’m crazy or maybe it’s because EXU: Calamity is my Roman Empire but that creature had a bigger role in Aeor’s plan.
just realized that Orym’s deal with Nana Morri is now inert since they won’t all be coming home. So what will happen to his new powers? Will they go away? Will Nana be mad?
The difference between my siblings and I:
oldest- My sister: works at a church, most likely straight, extrovert.
middle- My brother: atheist as frick, no one cares, straight as hell.
youngest- me: simultaneously a disaster bisexual and lazy pagan. social anxiety is my closest friend.
If you don't know I'm on the east coast, which means for me the episode airs at 10pm instead of seven. Combined with the fact that I'm insane and the episode is 8.5 hours, I'll be pulling an all-nighter with just enough time for a nap before my 8:30am lecture tomorrow. To my fellow critters in other time zones, stay true, stay caffeinated, more importantly stay hydrated!!!!!
Can we just talk about how good the new intro is?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! It makes me wanna see BH's animated!!!!!!!!!!! ITS SO GOOD!!!!!!!
CAN WE PLEASE GET A PREQUEL NOVEL ABOUT ALLURA AND KIMA’S ORIGINAL PARTY!!!!! PLEASE.
imagine this-- Liam and Matt are the only people on the main cast that haven't been DM-ed for a Calamity-era story by Brennan. What if we don't do another calamity series, but an arcanum series. What if we see the beginning of the Ring of Brass? The beginning of the political corruption with fewer members. Maybe Loquacious is off doing a press tour for some big drama in Vassalheim or Nydas is conducting a deal in Wildemount. Somehow there are two less members at the table and Matt and Liam come in. Liam could be Evandrin (because why not?) and Matt could play a younger version of Loras of the Weaver's Mask (maybe?) or someone in the higher rungs of the city so we can see that side of the corruption and how it started. We could even see the attempt to plane shift that "killed" Evandrin at the end of it. I just remember during the Calamity Wrap-Up Marisha said something about being at high level and not being able to play the "pick yourself up by your boot straps" archetype for Patia, but maybe we can see that era of her becoming the Keeper of Scrolls, or more of Zerxus's weird oracle powers that HE CAME TO AVALIR TO LEARN MORE ABOUT (that detail was dropped so nonchalantly and it keeps me up at night). Maybe we could see Laerryn and Quay's wedding, or their actual divorce! Who knows. This is just some silly idea I had.
I think that one of the best songs to encapsulate Callowmoore, at least from Ashton's POV is Senses by MICO. Like when I need some angst in my life, I imagine a modern!AU Callowmoore with Ashton singing this song with Fearne in the crowd.
Your welcome.
Watching Predathos be this little alien baby whose hungry while Matt is traumatizing everyone and all my mind could think of was:
