a woman begging three men she trusts to believe her when she tells her version of events sure hits in a way

And it makes it extra awful that one of them chooses to read her mind rather than believe that what she felt was true.

A mysterious buxom dwarf wizard saved his life for unknown reasons? She was incredibly focused and effective during a chaotic and violent attack? She’s the only person in the room who seems to fully understand what just happened and she’s not willing to divulge anything in a public space? She’s clearly not from the upper classes, comes across a little brash, and is wearing a banger of a dress? She has jeweled teeth and you suspect they’re not just for decoration?

King Gus if you are not making a move during your meeting with Murray, you are missing the opportunity of a lifetime. Ask her to be your queen when her schedule opens up in 3 to 4 years.

With any luck, the next time I see your face we will have undone the damage of our first attempt. - Professor

I'm certainly not the first one to point this out but to bring everyone up to speed, it does look like Thjazi accidentally caused the gates to Faerie to close.

What is interesting though is that it differs from Aranessa's explanation to Occtis about why it closed.

Occtis, the doors to Faerie closed because the realm of death is so choked with souls that cannot move to an afterlife because we killed the gods, that that energy burst into our world and almost struck the heart of Faerie, killing it forever. - Aranessa

Back in episode 15 Vaelus did an insight check on her and it was revealed that she holds a great secret that causes her a great deal of pain.

I think Thjazi confessed to Aranessa what he did and Aranessa has been lying for him to not taint the folk hero's cause. Aranessa did know that Thjazi was collecting things torwards the end and it seems like she suspected that he was trying what he did before again.

Did it have any connection to-- I was not able to be granted audience, either by your family or the Halovar. Do you know anything about what his intentions were with the box? - Aranessa

It seems like she was going to ask the two priestly houses about the box.

A big question remains. Did Aranessa know that Thjazi had people that could pick up the pieces after he was gone? If so that would mean Aranessa didn't trust his plan because she made no effort to make sure the Stone of Nightsong stayed in Dol-Makjar.

Also, this second ritual better work this time. It seems like this second attempt is more ambitious and if it fails it could lead to a lot of damage. What's worse is that in this attempt it does not seem like anybody doing it will realize that they are doing a ritual. Hopefully Mara or Bogrey can get involved soon.

Yeah no Maya/Aranessa is in my brain now and it will not leave I'm afraid

So to recap. The petrified paladins are for navigating the Sea of Lachris which is part of the underworld. House Tachonis was dragging some petrified paladins north. Houndsport is in the northern most part of Timmony. Houndsport has Tachonis activity. Timmony is also north of Dol-Makjar and the Tachonis twins said that they were going to go north from Dol-Makjar to board a ship. The waters off of Houndsport is the Sea of Imlay and the Bay of Gaerhithai is part of it. Sylandri's barrowdell partially envelopes the bay.

Could Sylandri dying have caused the creation of the Sea Door and does the Sea Door directly lead to the Sea of Lachris? We know that when the gods died, they left areas that were inversions of themselves. The goddes of life dying above or in water and causing a portal to the Sea of Lachris to open seems like something that could happen.

It would be interesting to see if Vaelus could get her people to send their navy to intercept House Tachonis. I imagine many if not all of her people are in the Sylandri barrowdell. (I have a theory that Sylandri dying simultaneously created her Barrowdell and also turned the elves within it into Drow)

Edit: Also late update but if Sylandri dying did make the portal to the Sea Lachris it would make sense that the sea is a recent rediscovery. It was rediscovered through the portal.

this is literally exactly what i was thinking!!!!

Julien: Hey so dad and I were moving through concepts of an apology before his skull noclipped that's something right-

Maya: Julien your sister has NO hands. START FUCKING
