Morgan Vox Machina S2 finale AND Elijah Dragon Prince episode?? LET'S FUCKING GOOO!

Ryan

We just got an amazingly quick date announcement for Season 7 in December, the shortest gap since these first two. That's a very promising sign for the show's future.

Serinthia Kelberry

I mean...Claudia might be able to do something. Hard to say...I guess it all depends how far she's willing to go...

This episode is definitely one of the best in the show imo, such a banger, and I forgot there was a cliffhanger, that was absolutely evil of them lmao. TDP is such a good show and I wish more people reacted to it.

Ryan Porter

The writers are so good at creating layered, complex characters, and peeling back the layers, one by one... They're also good at infuriating cliffhangers. It must take so much self control not to binge this.

Poor Corvus. I mean, the guy didn't know about Ez's ability, of course he was going to assume the worst.

"This episode is so deep" Half a second later: Sail-Callum! :p

MakMcPoorards

Can’t wait until you reach the part where Aaravos and Viren conceive a child together.

As a writer, im obsessed with dream sequences. They're my favorite to write and analyze...which I have done for Callum's dream wayyy too much because it is particularly juicy and ingenious. But I really love it and so, like I did for Mosco's reaction, I'm gonna drop my ramblings (aka accidental essay) below in the replies. You actually got most of it on first watch which is really impressive!

1. Callum wakes on a bed of keys which the cube--named the Key of Aaravos (who we now know to be the sparkly elf in the mirror)-- is hidden in, much like how it was hidden in the Banther lodge. This entire season, Callum has been playing with the cube, watching it light up for others, and always being disappointed when it doesn't glow for him. For the first time, it *does* glow for him, but with a dark magic rune (which isn't on the real cube btw). It's what he always wanted, but not in the way he wanted, so he tries to reject it. 2. When talking to his dark self (which, depending on your interpretation, can be a physical manifestation of dark magic, or just Callum battling his darkest wants and desires), his dark self mentions that Callum can use dark magic for good. He's trying to appeal to the "its not the magic that's evil, but how its used" which is the same idea Claudia and Viren subscribe to. Its obviously faulty, given the nature of how dark magic is cast, but it is setting up potential Viren/Callum parallels, because Viren does use dark magic for good in his eyes (think saving the two kingdoms with the titan's heart). 3. THE HARROW SECTION aka The Dragon Prince Thesis pt. 2. Harrow in this scene is the good in Callum's consciousness. He repeats the message from the letter about Callum being free from the great lie of history (the lie being that strength is power, not love), and tells Callum he is free to choose his own future. This is a subset of the thesis of the show, which is that we must *choose* to build a future based on love, this time manifesting as the quintessential quote "Destiny is a book you write yourself." Furthermore, in the letter, Harrow literally tells Callum to "reject the chains of history" to embrace a brighter future. In the dream, Harrow is chained, symbolizing his failure at rejecting said chains during his life, instead opting to continue the cycle of violence that resulted in his downfall. Harrow insisting to Callum that he is free while he himself is chained to the throne is just....it hits me every time. 4. The dream continues because, even though Callum has rejected dark magic, he is still in a state of turmoil because he wants to be able to do magic so badly. So he's back on the ship--the place he went the farthest to learn magic earlier. For a moment, it feels like he's making progress. He's now a sail, and is able to feel the wind. He's flying. However, when we zoom out, Callum is holding the primal stone, symbolizing that the brief progress he felt was do to the external factor of the primal stone, which Callum smashed, effectively destroying his ability to do magic. When we zoom back, Callum's life is in shambles because of his decision to smash the orb. He's no longer flying. In fact, he's struggling to swim. Now that he's ventured out into the sea of learning magic but destroyed the vessel that was helping him, he's left drowning in his confusion and desperation to learn magic. Its overwhelming, which is symbolized by him sinking into the sea.

It is still one of the funniest things in the whole show.

All of that weird shit in the dream, and Callum never once thinks to ask the most important question: WHO'S UP THERE OPERATING THAT FOLLOW SPOT?
