    Ok, real talk- Fabian’s Grandad is spitting some real wisdom that everyone, including us as the audience, are ignoring because he sounds rediculous, and because his life is so very different than ours.
    “We have to go fight the Nightmare King”
    “It is a cruel world that would have such young people go… do stuff. You should be here, eating grapes and dancing.”
    “Maybe I’ll come back.”
    “PLEASE come back. My only wish for you is to dance a bit more.”
    This man lives a life in which he reflects on all the small beauties of the world. Isn’t that what we all want?
    He is rightfully upset that underage teens are being asked to go into peril, which, YEAH. He SHOULD be. How is the Nightmare King not a quest for full grown adults?!
    Some of his perspective is off from being removed from the world for so long, but it also means he cuts right through some of the bullshit at the heart of it.
    He’s a real one for asking his Grandson to be careful and come back.

      His grandfather dancing with Fabian is so beautiful. “I danced with your mother through these glades for years… You belong here… It is a cruel world beyond these shores that would see such beautiful children… have to do stuff.” It reminds me of the LOTR quote between Gandalf and Frodo: “I wish it need not have happened in my time… and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

      The whole Jawbone interaction is so legit: Treat people like they have feelings vs a means to placate how you feel. Kristen wasn’t respecting how Trapper felt; she just wanted her to stop being mad at her. The conversation about the importance of truth was also enlightening. Jawbone didn’t say, “be 100% about everything always” but rather, “trust your gut… and know that hiding things doesn’t tend to work out well.”

    This might be my favorite episode for the simple fact that everyone gets a moment in the spotlight, and it’s a culmination of so many interpersonal relationships. Fabian finally comes into his own after his really bad (long-drawn out) day. Gorgug gets revenge on the elements. Riz plays an important role in their success (but also quietly lets the others claim the spotlight, as he often does). Ayda is so clutch in dispelling the orbs and counterspelling some of the more brutal Elven attacks. Fig, despite her poor battle rolls, connects majorly with Ayda. Siobhan recovers her spellbook & gear and really bonds with her sister for the first. Kristen’s goofy idea ends up saving the day by dispelling Angwuin’s invisibility and allowing Fig to clock him (her one good role). To top it all off, we can get awesome therapy session from Jawbone (and some wisdom from Fabian’s gpa) AND a little bit of well deserved hubris from Arthur Aguefort. It’s just a perfect episode.

    Brennan uses the same stealth/ suspense music all the time, but he especially uses it whenever there’s a nightmare king attack, and so when he plays it normally I just get flashbacks. Like… NO NOT BARON ARE THEY HERE???
