Some stuff I gathered from the Watch Party as the creators answered fan questions:
- Inverting the nexus wouldn’t bring Leola back. Startouch council essentially ended her existence and Aaron doesn’t believe there’s a way to bring her back (plus Aaravos would’ve done so already)
- The Jailer was a unique dark mage who specialized in prisons and puzzles
- Tiadrin and Lain are not likely to appear in TDK, they have passed on and are happy together
- They want to work on an art book for Mystery of Aaravos (arc 2)
- Confirmation that ‘Pip and the King’ was always the plan since the beginning
- Apparently the white streak from practicing dark magic is “un-dye-able” (unsure if this was a joke)
- Someone asked about the crying baby in the teaser, and Aaron said ‘sparkly baby poop is all I’m going to say’… also unclear if he was joking
- Aaron imagines something elaborate must’ve happened when the quasar diamond was switched in the staff, like a heist
Q: Does the dragang find Aaravos’ book?
A: Great question, I will not answer it.
We will see more of the following people and/or events in TDK
- Rayllum content of course!
- More Kim’Dael
- Astrid and Celestial elves
- Startouch elves
- More Ruthari (“if they survive,” Aaron joked)
- Aaravos/Callum interactions
- Queen Aanya
- Miyana and the twins, Janai/ the lineage for the sunfire monarchy
- More relationships between humans and elves
- We are likely to meet someone ancient who has kept themselves alive though the dark practice of self-eating
- We will see more Elarion; Aaron compared the ruins to the Chernobyl disaster
- Zym’s power has grown
- Stella has been trouble as usual!
Likely to be in tdk, but no official guarantee:
- The Jailer’s descendants and their fates
- Humans will be able to do primal magic
- Claudia could potentially have a new love interest, again nothing guaranteed
- They want to figure out a better explanation for Ezran’s ability to talk to animals, rather than just ‘empathy’
