Wouldn't it be annoying if you were connected to all the six primal sources (or an archmage) and then all the sides of the cube just glow whenever you just hold it
My guess is the cube was made to open when all elements are present at once. What is inside is probably Aaravos magnum opus. Maybe a primal stone that has all 6 sources. It could also be Light magic. Or a philosophers stone. Whatever it is the most powerful mage put it in a box only he could open having all primal sources so it must be powerful.
It might also need massive amounts of primal energy that come from ancient elemental sources like Zym or the Sun Forge. Since Xadian creatures and places like Nexuses are abundant magical sources, that may be why Aaravos wanted Viren to steal the power of the Sun Forge and Zym's power to make it possible for him to escape once he gained every element.
I think the key will become a staff which let's the user use a spell without needing to make the rune as it seems to be that close Range is the weakness of a mage
Now that season 3 is out, it seems the key is connected to humans learning actual magic. I suspect Aaravos is the one who discovered dark magic and taught it to humans for his own gain. Love this series 💙
I completely agree with you on that. Because the dark mage said one of "The Elders" gave him that staff maybe that Elder was Aaravos and that's why he got imprisoned.
Because I think those elven mages at the end of the re-cap look like they're the elders and there one of them is a Star Touched elf. Hard to tell if its Aaravos though.
also... another thing that supports my theory of callum leading a team of people with differing arcanums rather than himself using all 6.... is because of one in particular... the star arcanum is the rarest of all of the primals and even most elves know very little about it... the only exception are star touched elves like aaravos... but because star touched elves are so rare and knowledge of it is even rarer... it is very unlikely callum would ever be able to learn it.
Arcanum Elite if I may add to your argument? What if by having the key itself, Callum establishes a link between him and Aaravos? Aaravos could enters Callum’s dream and we have a dark master subplot where he teaches Callum Star Magic himself as a means of getting Callum to trust him (since it seems the key is being setup as a means to free him) and it climaxes with Callum admitting to Rayla about his meetings with Aaravos?
It was VERY unlikely for Callum to learn the sky arcanum... but he did. No elf so far has been able to explain their own arcanum and none of them believe humans can possess such a thing. So even though it's unlikely, if anyone is gonna do it, it's gotta be Callum.
I know it's bland but personally I think the secret is simply that the entire human vs Elf war is irrelevant. The key reveals all beings of all kinds no matter species or race can perform all forms of magic. It is not an exclusive art and that everyone and anyone can seek this power. The true war is between those who misuse absolute power (Aravos) and those who use it wisely (Callum)
Maybe you are right. Maybe the war that is happening is on a deeper surface than we think. And like you said the 'outer war' is irrelevant. I guess we will just have to wait and see to find out.
The more I think about it (which I have thought alot) Harrow warning about disregarding the pass and has to do with let go of war, which will lead to coming together with the elves and together they will unlock the key. And like I have mentioned before Light Magic.
I thought it could free Aaravos, but it makes no sense for Harrow giving it to Callum. It must, as you said, unlock some hidden power. I don't know if it allows to master the 6 primal sources, because it would become too much Avatar-y, but I sure hides some greater secret, maybe it allows to find some extant nexus, like the moon well, or maybe lead to other planes, including the one Aaravos resides. There are some cool theories around Star Elves' magic around to make some wild guesses.
Yeah exactly. And that's exactly what they are. Wierd theories. I don't know if it will be the key to all 6 sources but I know it will be a big secret.
Aravos is a friend of all humans who probably taught them dark magic a long time ago. Thus, he can be this hidden power that can help win the war. But I still do not like this theory that the key can release Aravos from prison.
Also, if it's Aaravos key, I doubt that anyone who locked him would use magical item that he made, to keep him locked. Or it's not really Aaravos property, but it was named that way by the original creator, as a key to unlock Aavaros prison. King Harrow had no idea about magic, but he gave ancient relic to his kid to play, instead of giving in to some mage. Also, Harrow wrote in his letter that it unlocks something in Xadia, and how he was expecting Callum to just walk into Xadia to search for some legendary hidden room? Callum was supposed to be save in a winter residence, not go to Xadia.
@@BlitzStrike_ I don't think it is. Because remember in season 2, Lujanne explained that there are certain PLACES in which the primal sources were strongest. Like the Moonhenge for the Moon, and the Storm Spire for the sky. I have no idea where the Star nexus may be. But I understand why u would think that!
I think the key is more of a box, it's possible the "great power" is actually held within the key. Perhaps once exposed to all six elements simultaneously it will open to reveal something hidden within! Since it's been mentioned that magic is abundant in Zadia, but not the human half of the land, it would make sense for the key to open only in Zadia... where it can finally be expose to all six primal sources!
The fact that it is the voice of Aaravos in the very first moments of the show can't be coincidental, it suggests to me that he's virtually omnipotent. The fact that he is the one talking the viewer could even be considered breaking the fourth wall in a way. However you put it I think he's the most powerful character in the series so far and who knows what will happen if he escapes the mirror.
Aaravos seems to be a Satanic figure and the endgame villain. They probably planned for him to be like Ozai in Avatar: The Last Airbender but also learned from the mistakes they made with Ozai, which was not giving him any character outside of just being evil. Aaravos is evil too but at least he has a personality so the final showdown with him should be much more compelling.
I have a theory that Callum and Ezran’s mother has something to with Xadia. Maybe Callum’s dad is an elf or she herself is a descendant if one and that’s why bough Callum and Ezran have some sort of powers. What do you think?
I'm pretty sure Aaravos is trapped between the plane of life and death which Lujanne introduced to us, and he can't escape because the Moon magic rituals that were used to go there are in ruins now. He could also be trapped inside the Key of Aaravos itself.
I think it is how Aaravos was able to connect to his non-native arcanums, and its how Callum was able to as well. i.e. it a key to ‘unlock’ arcanums and why so few achieve it (they didn’t have this key)
ezran is connected to the earth arcanum... it is why they specifically avoided having callum hold it up to him... but its pretty much all but guaranteed ezran is connected to the earth arcanum due to his ability to speak to animals which falls under the earth arcanum's domain or whatever plus hes the only character that callum never held the key up to. probably cus they want to save it for a big "surprise" also... i believe the key might lead to the source of dark magic.... if all of the primal magics have sources then why wouldn't dark magic... and dark magic has the power to take from all other primal forces so the gateway to this source being locked behind needing all of the other primal sources would make sense... on top of this being close to the source amplifies that magic so perhaps avaros could have intended to open the gateway to the dark source and that is why he was imprisoned... after all... if they banished humans from their land just for using dark magic... what would they do to someone close to the source and even more dangerous... and the other elves called avaros "worse than death" and were absolutely terrified of him.
Nice comment. I think you are onto something with that key theory. But I guess we will find out in S3. And I do hope we get that reveal of ezrans powers in S3 as well
@@RohaniBoy If i am right i believe that instead of having callum learn all of the primal magics he will instead have the team as a whole have all of them... callum-sky ezran-earth reyla-moon weird toad pet thing whos name i dont remember-sun each of them aligned to a specific arcanum and after all 6 of them come together near the key something will be revealed to lead them to the dark source which they will then probably destroy saving the realm from dark magic and returning the world to how it was before dark magic.
This is more in line with what I've been speculating for a while. But maybe it's just my cynicism lol. I would point out, though, that Runaan said the mirror is worse than death. He didn't say anything about Aaravos himself. That being said, what better punishment for the elf who taught humans dark magic and sought greater power through it than something worse than death? It would also explain why Aaravos doesn't know where he is, even with such a sophisticated knowledge of all types of magic.
Maybe the key unlocks magic for mankind, and all the primordial for Callum, as a price for using it. Putting him on par with Aaravos and his apprentice.
I think Aaravos was punished for teaching humans dark magic. He doesn’t seem like a villain, just a being who’s relishing a connection to another being in such a log time, which is why he’s helping Viren, but I think Aaravos will help any person who comes his way. I’d like to see him help Callum and Viren gets pissed like “Why!?” and Aaravos is like “I’m not biased. I help those who seek my knowledge.”
Aaravos must have been trapped in the mirror because of the practice of dark magic. Regarding this, Aaravos must have been one of if not the most powerful elf at their time, a clear reason why he is trapped in a magical mirror rather than a normal dungeon and that he has opened the cube more than once. Despite being an elf, Aaravos is seemingly friendly toward humans. This means the cube shows the reality, the irrelevance of a war and quite possibly the true nature and greed of humans and how they can be used.This is another reference to which, Later on, foolish old Viren stricken with greed for power will be used to free Aaravos creating chaos but we still don't know Aaravos 's alias so maybe he is in the human's side or he is benefiting only himself as it is likely he is not in the elf side because the elves are not willing to accept him. But that's just my stupid wacky theory which is not even well explained. I just wanted to share it out.
I liked it. Nice theory. Aaravos is hiding something and that something must be why he is trapped. And Viren is doing something very foolish by joining forced with him.
Viren asked Aaravos in season 2 "Why should I trust you?" And Aaravos replied in a very sly manner "You shouldn't..." as if Aaravos was playing with Viren. Another proof. Runan the moon elf also insisted that mirror is worse than death so it is probable that Aaravos is a villain which might get a season or half in Dragon Prince. But that's just my opinion.
This is not a theory. It will help you in your videos. In dragon prince season 2, after Aravos confronted Viren, he went to the library to find more information about Aravos but the text in the book deteriorated before Viren could find out any information but we got a quick glance of both the texts the first one was in Danish and the second one was in Arabic. The translation in Danish says “Finally he told me his name. I have never heard a name like his. But i had never imagined an elve(?) like him either. He is stronger and wiser than any other magical creature in Xadia. Yet he is a friend to all people. Where others look down on us, calls us inferiors, he sees great potential in us. When we accept the awards that Aaravos has promised us, they will pay for their conceit they will be forced to see us as equal. And when we are equal, we can take our destiny into our own hands and move our future. I can see it." The translations in Arabic says :- "Elarion, seeds trembling Lying on the ground on an icy night. And in the cold [She] withdrew her roots Challenging the sting of the deadly winter. Elarion, and her blooming flower, afraid of wilting, darkness and death, Had searched the dark For a spark And so the eyes of the hungry dragon flared. Elarion, the frightened foundling Stretched her white branches towards the night. Asking the stars, To receive her light, And to stop the fire of the raging dragon. Elarion, in a heavy rest, cried while the stars of the skies turned black They wore their masks, Turned their backs, And left Elarion to die. Elarion, as her skin struggled death, Withered and suffered in the dark, Until the last star, Reached out from far away Its touch: a fire, a gift, a spark. Elarion, and her blinding light, Embraced the great black flame of night. And when she bowed, She declared her faith, [He] whispered, "Aaravos," his name. Elarion, black-eyed child, her twisted roots spread deep and far, The humans’ might sparked by the light of Aaravos, her midnight star." Hope you can use this on one of your vids. I got the translations from: Arabic transalation: www.reddit.com/r/TheDragonPrince/comments/asm576/aaravos_complete_arabic_poem_translation_in/ Danish translations: shinyuga.tumblr.com/post/182845884378/i-havent-really-seen-anyone-translate-this-yet-so Shout out these links if you are gonna use them.
I'mma call it. Aaravos taught the humans dark magic and humans can actually do magic but the elves made them believe they couldn't because their human.
Yh that’s literally what happened I watched this video and the translated what it said in the book about aarvos before it disappeared it said something like “ Aarvos sees great things in us and he gave us gifts to finally be equal ” something like that can’t remember
Considering the fact that it is called a key and it’s presence in calems fever dream (or whatever it’s called) at the end of season 2, I theorize that it is a catalyst that can unlock access to an arcanum based off several varying factors and the element that is trying to be unlocked.
I hope we could actually see more abilities of the cube besides just being a glowing arcanum detector. Plus my thoughts of what the primal magic represent: Sky= Wind and electricity Moon= Spirit Sun= Fire Earth= Ground Ocean= Water and ice Stars= Light and darkness
@@RohaniBoy You have a point there, though I just really wonder what star magic would look like, as I said last time I'm pretty hyped to see it soon. I mainly thought of that idea since I was thinking of another show where there is an elemental fairy happens to be the vessel of both light and darkness, which I find pretty cool.
The key of aaravos is the key to the humans innerself. It helped callum gain access to his first arcanum. It's meant to help the humans unlock each arcanum and wield it.
I think ive figured it out.... In the opening scene aaravos is shown. If you look the star/diamond on his chest is solid and dully glowing. However in his current appearance it is empty and only a outlining with dark center. The key of aaravos... It has the missing part in it. (Could it hold aaravos's heart?) Reading the translations in the books at the begining he was in love. This could be what changed everything and why he seems heartless/wanting to destroy everything.
personally i think the key belonging to aaravos just KINDA doesn’t add up as even Viren didnt know about aaravos untill s2. Its very much possible Harrow just didint tell him though. But I honestly cant think of a better theory so... :p
The KEY of Aaravos... At first watch, I immediately concluded that Callum is gonna learn all six primal sources of magic... On re-watch, I thought, "He's got friends (Rayla and anyone he might come across in Xadia) and possibly a magically attuned brother in Ezran (Earth primal), so learn all primal magic? That'll be a waste of valuable character building, as regards the other protagonists. Then I thought, it'll be boring if he just learns the one he's learned now, sky magic and be satisfied with it, it doesn't seem like Callum, then I concluded he'll learn about 3 PRIMAL MAGIC.. This sounds good enough.. Now, the matter of a Key in the form of a cube that once belonged to Aaravos and later was passed down through the royal family... Before I pop my theory and possible [Spoiler], I've got some suspicions.. 1. Why give it to Callum and not Ezran? When, as we've been led to believe, Callum has never shown an interest in Magic prior to his stumbling on the sky primal stone? Now to my whack theory.. Aaravos was a magical startouch elf prodigy, loved magic and then stumbled on the key itself, or was passed down to him, by the startouch elves. Now, I believe the startouch elves were the ruling powers in Xadia, and they knew many secrets and were very knowledgeable so much that they knew the cube was a key to a great power in Xadia. That power being an automatic connection to other sources, or the knowledge of other arcana. Aaravos, being a worthy candidate used the key, passed the test and gained connection to the other sources. That brings me to my final sentence for season 3. Callum is not gonna learn the primal sources one by one per season, He's gonna master the sky arcanum for the next three seasons and then become a worthy mage to unlock the power that the key fits into... This might be a little too much, but it's worth sharing, ain't it HUMAN FELLOWS, FELLOW HUMANS?
That makes sense. He needs to learn the sky properly before he starts any other magic. And maybe the key will allow Callum to gain the Powers of the other sources when he's worthy!
Theory: Aaravos was the first to discover dark magic. And because he also was an archmage he was probably the most powerful elf in his time. He got imprisoned but he connected a mirror to his prison so he could teach humans dark magic and bring them on the path of destroying Xadia for his own gain. And that might be to be released or just to be avenged.
Theory the Key unlocks a persons ability to connect to primal sources which is why Callum gained access to the sky arcane and why Aaravos can use all types of magic.
@@hoosnatisisi9865 Nay i'd like more, also a huge part of what made shows (and unwillingly i use this example) like Avatar appealing to me was companion interactions, journey of the "heroes" it certainly can't be the outcome, because EVERYONE knows the outcome.
I think Callum won't learn each primal source, instead I think as he adventures through Xadia he will meet more elves, he already has Rayla (moon) himself (sky) so maybe as they adventure they will meet elves or maybe even some other magical human like creatures and eventually they will have a team, and then they might only be able to unlock the cube in the dragon king's den, so when they return the dragon prince, they will unlock the box or whatever it is.
Maybe the cube does it's ability when all the primal magic used on it, since it was made by a person who can do all magic. It either is a tool to open something or a tool to use on it's own.
@@RohaniBoy Yea, personally I think it's a key, fitting it's name. Also it was in a chest full of keys. If the cube is connected to something big, I wonder why it's not as protected as the mirror?
Bit of an out there one but what if the mirror shows the inside of the cube and that's where Aaravos is trapped, maybe his manipulation is in attempt to create the conditions in which it is necessary for someone (most likely Callum) to learn all six arcanums and set him free. With the divination that comes with the star arcanum this wouldn't be outside of his powers.
Judging from similar shows I've seen about humans getting accepted as gods, I think this is highly possible. Plus I wonder if destroying the cube would end up destroying the mirror spirit.
Seems kind of lame for Callum to be the Avatar of TDP. Maybe he'll be the key to giving all humans access to the primal forces. Maybe someone in the past blocked humans from magic and Callum broke that roadblock. Ezran has special abilities too, so there's that
I think that the key is how you learn all six Primal Sources because as they said in the series humans can't do Primal Magic but what if this key is how you learn them all, and that's why its called The Key of Aaravos because its the key to the Primal Sources. Like if you agree.
TDP Avatar. All I gotta say. And maybe, like another person said, after he masters all elements, it'll unlock Light Magic? Also, on the other hand... Since Aaravos knows some things, being a star touch elf (divination and all that :P ), it's possible he actually foresaw what happened to him, being imprisoned, and made the key as a safeguard to try and escape. Just in case.
You missed that in the end of season two, the key started glowing before Callum cast the spell. And Callum was feet away from the key, not mere inches.
I have a theory if the cube is the key of Aaravos and Aaravos is trapped in the mirror what If you have to put the cube in front of the mirror and it will create a portal on both sides letting Aaravos escape
Hi I’m from the future we don’t find out about the cube I think we will figure out in the end of season 5 I can’t wait for Season 4 it’s gonna get darker I can’t wait I’m so excited
I think it holds answers and unlocks multiple things. Something definitely happens when all Six sides glow, but I also think that it could be used to enter and/or unlock multiple rooms/doors/areas.Though I'm keeping my money on the possibility that it is the key to some sort of Spell/Ritual or Device.
As I'm watching this, I'm trembling with excitement and wonder! What is the Key of Aaravos's point? How will this have an effect? I AM SO EXCITED! And if Netflix cancels the Dragon prince before we find out.....well...... I now know what I want my job to be. I'm gonna be the CEO of Netflix! Can't wait for Season 4!
I might have figured it out the "key of araravoss" he needs to be near it for it to be opened by being near it from the mirror you see i saw a key or archmage power hole idk but I think that it might be true g
I have a theory! WARNING LONG TEXT So in one of the poems that Viren opened when trying to research Aaravos's name, describes blackening eyes of seemingly a human, and it says "Aaravos, my midnight star". He must've gifted dark magic to humans first, which is why he was taken to the King of all Dragons to decide his fate, since he was the most powerful. Quote from Aaravos "He is the reason I am where I am now" He locked him in a mirror, which I'm gonna use some assumptions about Dr. Strange here. In that mirror dimension, it is connected to the real world, but not quite. Time stops, and destruction does not apply in reality unless the person (or elf here) dies. Then they really die. I beleive that is where Aaravos is. Furthermore, remember they found the cube in Amaya's house? Well, that could've been where Aaravos lived, as it was hidden in a simple drawer. Aaravos most likely need that key to practice magic of all primal sources, he must've created it. I think ... To unlock the dimension he is trapped in, all sides must glow and Aaravos will be free, because he is as described "very powerful".
I think Aaravos is looking for that cube as it is his only way out of the prison he's in... At the beginning I thought, as many others he could be trapped inside, but I don't think the cube is an evil object (unless it's in the wrong hands)
The Key to the Mirror theory was what came to mind first. Now, I think it might be something of two. Either way, we know it most likely opens something. Why else call it a Key? Unless they mean ‘key’ like the key to a map. So it either unlocks something, or reveals the location of something. 1. It allows someone, some way to ‘speak’ to the archanum. With the way it’s described, it could be entirely possible that it’s some sort of ‘energy being’. Like the Portals into the Spirit World from Avatar. 2. This is the one I have the most banking on. The Key allows you to revive the dead through magic. We know so far that mo Mage, human or elf, can reverse death. And with all the characters who’ve died so far in the series, both sides may want to use this power. Perhaps it was something that the Star Elves neglected that fell into the hands of humanity. Aaravos May have tried to teach the humans how to unlock the Key and was thusly sealed in the mirror. Post your theories anyone who’s read this far. I wanna see what this Fandoms Greatest minds have in store.
Nice theory! Pretty bizzare but we can't rule anything out and I like that. I'm still a believer that it opens a physical place but honestly can't be sure aye
WAIT WHAT IF THE POWER YOU UNLOCK WITH THE KEY OF AARAVOS IN XADIA IS TO MEET HIM AND LEARN THE PRIMAL MAGIC YOU WISH TO LEARN!? does that mean harrow has learned a primal magic since he knows something about it? :0
Guys i think everybody can do all magic, Aarovos is obviously a star elf but he posseses all six arcanums, when he possesed Viren to take the attacking knights out Aaravos used all kinds of magic like electricity(air) and fire(sun) which must mean he knows the arcanums. That could explain why callum can do sky magic. Everybody is born with an arcanum you just have to understand it.
I have a theory that it's less that the cube is a key but that Aaravos (or anyone else who can master the six primal sources) is key to transforming the cube or even maybe opening it, perhaps late in the show Callum will have another internal struggle about whether to help Aaravos so he can learn more about the cube or try to master all 6 himself, with the speed in which Callum learnt the sky arcanum without even having a mentor and him wanting to learn the moon arcanum from Lujanne doesn't make it unreasonable for him to learn others imo.
Your videos are great, keep them up! My only complaint is that your video with Ezran was a little soft for me but that may just be my end. Aaravos is sexiest elf but Runaan can take my money any day
Thanks for you comment! I think we just need more Aaravos I'm general. That voice is so good. Wish my voice was that smooth. Hopefully we learn more about the key in S3 because there is so much mystery right now.
i feel like the cube or the mirror to trap aravos must have been made using elves of all 6 primal sources and their magic to seal him away, and it will be all 6 to release him or trap him again
What if, hear me out... all the elements are brought before the cube and it unlocks literally like a puzzle to reveal something even rarer than what Callum was using at the start for his spells? What if it unlocks a power that allows a mage to use literally any and ALL elements? That might be WHY he was locked up but kept alive in case he was needed. It might also be why humans got the dark power they began to use because he told a human mage but that mage was destroyed by the dragon so he was forgotten and lost to time until Viren found him. Just imagine if Callum, who is learning elements on his own manages to unlock it? I imagine two mages, one elf and the other human but both having unlocked all the powers would make for quite the Epic battle on the scale of when Aang fought at full power in the final last Airbender episode but more so because it'd be like two avatars using elements at full power but each having different knowledge and skills. It would make for a fantastic final episode in the last TDP show, wouldn't it?
I believe that Aaravos invented the key to help him connect to the other Arcanums and that it somehow fell into the hands of one of Harrow's ancestors the same time he was imprisoned.
What if the Key isn't actually a key, but a cage? And the actual "key" is making all six sides of it glow in unison! (Or maybe the key only works when all sides are glowing." As a master of all the elements, Aaravos would be able to accomplish that himself, so I can absolutely see him using a mechanic like it on his key.
It's pretty obvious from Calum's dream that the key is how he connects to the wind arcanum, and that it holds the power to unlock the others as well. I'm not sure why this is such a stretch for the author of this video.
@@RohaniBoy Yeah, but any indication it will? One cna hope much, but what about statements of the creators? That show has potential, but potential can always be wasted. And there's so much Trash out there, i could really NEED a Good Show.
Mabey this cube is some kind of prize from Aavaros? I mean he still tell us he know everything and he want us to know everything to. So mabey if Calum mastered all "natural" elements of magic this cube will open and tell him how to use dark magic without killing magic creaturs?
Season 3 in and Callum can still do only Sky arcanum stuffs. Will he master all 6 arcanums by the end of season 7? Find out next time on Dragon Ball... I mean Prince IV. Btw, which arcanum does Bait belong to?
@@RohaniBoy probably not. Case in point: click on 1:00. The mountain represents earth arcanum, and it definitely isn't glowing. Neither are star or ocean. That leaves us with sky, moon and sun. So, what's it gonna be for Bait? Cross-checking with 0:53, the answer appears to be... sun arcanum(?).
@@sharif47 The Mountain and stuff don't make it glow because they are not magical. When he goes to Xadia in season 3. Everything he points the cube at is glowing because everything there is magical.
One theory, aaravos is the original dark magic dude from the beginning who has the whole convo and tornado with the dragon king and he wasn’t burnt to ash because he saved himself w/ the dark magic and so when he got caught he was put in this anti dark magic vessel so that he couldn’t go anywhere anymore and so he was turned into a caterpillar but over the years he managed to get some magic in his silk (that thing he put in virens eye) and so slowly though aaravos key he will get his power back like what we see when he makes that cocoon in szn 3
Wouldn't it be annoying if you were connected to all the six primal sources (or an archmage) and then all the sides of the cube just glow whenever you just hold it
I reckon that'll be cool as
@@RohaniBoy woudnt it annoyingly glow in ur bag tho?
Hahaha. Good point.
My guess is the cube was made to open when all elements are present at once. What is inside is probably Aaravos magnum opus. Maybe a primal stone that has all 6 sources. It could also be Light magic. Or a philosophers stone. Whatever it is the most powerful mage put it in a box only he could open having all primal sources so it must be powerful.
Insta-lantern!
I think the key will change when all sides glow and it will be the key to his magic lab that he keeps all his good stuff in
I wonder what secrets are hidden within
It might also need massive amounts of primal energy that come from ancient elemental sources like Zym or the Sun Forge. Since Xadian creatures and places like Nexuses are abundant magical sources, that may be why Aaravos wanted Viren to steal the power of the Sun Forge and Zym's power to make it possible for him to escape once he gained every element.
I think the key will become a staff which let's the user use a spell without needing to make the rune as it seems to be that close Range is the weakness of a mage
I think Aaravos is trapped in the cube
Yea some people have theorised that. Maybe the mirror looks into the cube.
Ooooh juicy xD
THAT‘S MAKING FRIGGIN‘ SENSE!!
Oooh good one!
Well shit, thee we go.
i felt so weird thinking aaravos as sexy af, then logged onto youtube and realized everybody was in the same boat hahaha
Now that season 3 is out, it seems the key is connected to humans learning actual magic. I suspect Aaravos is the one who discovered dark magic and taught it to humans for his own gain.
Love this series 💙
I watched all the episodes at once lol
Hope they make a season 4.
I completely agree with you on that. Because the dark mage said one of "The Elders" gave him that staff maybe that Elder was Aaravos and that's why he got imprisoned.
Because I think those elven mages at the end of the re-cap look like they're the elders and there one of them is a Star Touched elf. Hard to tell if its Aaravos though.
also... another thing that supports my theory of callum leading a team of people with differing arcanums rather than himself using all 6.... is because of one in particular... the star arcanum is the rarest of all of the primals and even most elves know very little about it... the only exception are star touched elves like aaravos... but because star touched elves are so rare and knowledge of it is even rarer... it is very unlikely callum would ever be able to learn it.
Yea so maybe he would have to learn it from Aaravos himself.
@@RohaniBoy I suppose... but if aaravos is the bad guy as most predict why would he teach callum that?
Who knows. Maybe he's more complicated than we think
Arcanum Elite if I may add to your argument? What if by having the key itself, Callum establishes a link between him and Aaravos? Aaravos could enters Callum’s dream and we have a dark master subplot where he teaches Callum Star Magic himself as a means of getting Callum to trust him (since it seems the key is being setup as a means to free him) and it climaxes with Callum admitting to Rayla about his meetings with Aaravos?
It was VERY unlikely for Callum to learn the sky arcanum... but he did. No elf so far has been able to explain their own arcanum and none of them believe humans can possess such a thing. So even though it's unlikely, if anyone is gonna do it, it's gotta be Callum.
I know it's bland but personally I think the secret is simply that the entire human vs Elf war is irrelevant. The key reveals all beings of all kinds no matter species or race can perform all forms of magic. It is not an exclusive art and that everyone and anyone can seek this power. The true war is between those who misuse absolute power (Aravos) and those who use it wisely (Callum)
Maybe you are right. Maybe the war that is happening is on a deeper surface than we think. And like you said the 'outer war' is irrelevant. I guess we will just have to wait and see to find out.
its the same as always one race needs to be the superior one. A show of dicks if it where
Holy shit, I never thought of it that way, that could actually be true!
The more I think about it (which I have thought alot) Harrow warning about disregarding the pass and has to do with let go of war, which will lead to coming together with the elves and together they will unlock the key. And like I have mentioned before Light Magic.
Oh yea good point. Light magic might actually be the key. No pun intended.
Imagine the hell he will unleash when he escapes the. Mirror
Destruction all across the lands
I Know Im Late to this comment But...
Aaravos Escaped.
*OH GAW-*
I thought it could free Aaravos, but it makes no sense for Harrow giving it to Callum. It must, as you said, unlock some hidden power. I don't know if it allows to master the 6 primal sources, because it would become too much Avatar-y, but I sure hides some greater secret, maybe it allows to find some extant nexus, like the moon well, or maybe lead to other planes, including the one Aaravos resides. There are some cool theories around Star Elves' magic around to make some wild guesses.
Yeah exactly. And that's exactly what they are. Wierd theories. I don't know if it will be the key to all 6 sources but I know it will be a big secret.
Aravos is a friend of all humans who probably taught them dark magic a long time ago. Thus, he can be this hidden power that can help win the war. But I still do not like this theory that the key can release Aravos from prison.
Also, if it's Aaravos key, I doubt that anyone who locked him would use magical item that he made, to keep him locked. Or it's not really Aaravos property, but it was named that way by the original creator, as a key to unlock Aavaros prison. King Harrow had no idea about magic, but he gave ancient relic to his kid to play, instead of giving in to some mage. Also, Harrow wrote in his letter that it unlocks something in Xadia, and how he was expecting Callum to just walk into Xadia to search for some legendary hidden room? Callum was supposed to be save in a winter residence, not go to Xadia.
Maybe the cube is the Star Nexus?
@@BlitzStrike_ I don't think it is. Because remember in season 2, Lujanne explained that there are certain PLACES in which the primal sources were strongest. Like the Moonhenge for the Moon, and the Storm Spire for the sky. I have no idea where the Star nexus may be. But I understand why u would think that!
I think the key is more of a box, it's possible the "great power" is actually held within the key. Perhaps once exposed to all six elements simultaneously it will open to reveal something hidden within! Since it's been mentioned that magic is abundant in Zadia, but not the human half of the land, it would make sense for the key to open only in Zadia... where it can finally be expose to all six primal sources!
The fact that it is the voice of Aaravos in the very first moments of the show can't be coincidental, it suggests to me that he's virtually omnipotent. The fact that he is the one talking the viewer could even be considered breaking the fourth wall in a way. However you put it I think he's the most powerful character in the series so far and who knows what will happen if he escapes the mirror.
I agree with the fact that his voice can be a coincidence. I don't know his true significance hit I know it's going to be big
Aaravos seems to be a Satanic figure and the endgame villain. They probably planned for him to be like Ozai in Avatar: The Last Airbender but also learned from the mistakes they made with Ozai, which was not giving him any character outside of just being evil. Aaravos is evil too but at least he has a personality so the final showdown with him should be much more compelling.
I love videos like this please keep doing them.
Will do! 😍
I have a theory that Callum and Ezran’s mother has something to with Xadia. Maybe Callum’s dad is an elf or she herself is a descendant if one and that’s why bough Callum and Ezran have some sort of powers. What do you think?
I'm pretty sure Aaravos is trapped between the plane of life and death which Lujanne introduced to us, and he can't escape because the Moon magic rituals that were used to go there are in ruins now. He could also be trapped inside the Key of Aaravos itself.
I think it is how Aaravos was able to connect to his non-native arcanums, and its how Callum was able to as well. i.e. it a key to ‘unlock’ arcanums and why so few achieve it (they didn’t have this key)
ezran is connected to the earth arcanum... it is why they specifically avoided having callum hold it up to him... but its pretty much all but guaranteed ezran is connected to the earth arcanum due to his ability to speak to animals which falls under the earth arcanum's domain or whatever
plus hes the only character that callum never held the key up to. probably cus they want to save it for a big "surprise"
also... i believe the key might lead to the source of dark magic.... if all of the primal magics have sources then why wouldn't dark magic... and dark magic has the power to take from all other primal forces so the gateway to this source being locked behind needing all of the other primal sources would make sense... on top of this being close to the source amplifies that magic so perhaps avaros could have intended to open the gateway to the dark source and that is why he was imprisoned...
after all... if they banished humans from their land just for using dark magic... what would they do to someone close to the source and even more dangerous... and the other elves called avaros "worse than death" and were absolutely terrified of him.
Nice comment. I think you are onto something with that key theory. But I guess we will find out in S3. And I do hope we get that reveal of ezrans powers in S3 as well
@@RohaniBoy If i am right i believe that instead of having callum learn all of the primal magics he will instead have the team as a whole have all of them...
callum-sky ezran-earth reyla-moon weird toad pet thing whos name i dont remember-sun each of them aligned to a specific arcanum and after all 6 of them come together near the key something will be revealed to lead them to the dark source which they will then probably destroy saving the realm from dark magic and returning the world to how it was before dark magic.
This is more in line with what I've been speculating for a while. But maybe it's just my cynicism lol.
I would point out, though, that Runaan said the mirror is worse than death. He didn't say anything about Aaravos himself. That being said, what better punishment for the elf who taught humans dark magic and sought greater power through it than something worse than death? It would also explain why Aaravos doesn't know where he is, even with such a sophisticated knowledge of all types of magic.
Hmm, this is definitely a fun theory. If this turns out to be true, then it’s one hell of a plot twist for sure. The Heroes ending the world.
Yup 💯 with Ezran being connected to earth primal magic.
Maybe the key unlocks magic for mankind, and all the primordial for Callum, as a price for using it. Putting him on par with Aaravos and his apprentice.
Could be a possibility 🤔
That’s maybe how he can do it
He was exposed to it as a child
i think the cube was made by the other star elves to defeat aravos and when callam has all the conections it wil unlock the key to defeating him
"The sexiest d.p. character."
Accurate😂👌
😄
I think Aaravos was punished for teaching humans dark magic. He doesn’t seem like a villain, just a being who’s relishing a connection to another being in such a log time, which is why he’s helping Viren, but I think Aaravos will help any person who comes his way. I’d like to see him help Callum and Viren gets pissed like “Why!?” and Aaravos is like “I’m not biased. I help those who seek my knowledge.”
That would be very cool to see! Hopefully we see more interactions with Aaravos in S3
Aaravos is released from the mirror
"Welcome to the end of the world"
From S3, guess we'll have to wait till S4.
fucking foreshadowing
Aaravos must have been trapped in the mirror because of the practice of dark magic. Regarding this, Aaravos must have been one of if not the most powerful elf at their time, a clear reason why he is trapped in a magical mirror rather than a normal dungeon and that he has opened the cube more than once. Despite being an elf, Aaravos is seemingly friendly toward humans. This means the cube shows the reality, the irrelevance of a war and quite possibly the true nature and greed of humans and how they can be used.This is another reference to which, Later on, foolish old Viren stricken with greed for power will be used to free Aaravos creating chaos but we still don't know Aaravos 's alias so maybe he is in the human's side or he is benefiting only himself as it is likely he is not in the elf side because the elves are not willing to accept him. But that's just my stupid wacky theory which is not even well explained. I just wanted to share it out.
I liked it. Nice theory. Aaravos is hiding something and that something must be why he is trapped. And Viren is doing something very foolish by joining forced with him.
Viren asked Aaravos in season 2 "Why should I trust you?" And Aaravos replied in a very sly manner "You shouldn't..." as if Aaravos was playing with Viren. Another proof. Runan the moon elf also insisted that mirror is worse than death so it is probable that Aaravos is a villain which might get a season or half in Dragon Prince. But that's just my opinion.
Yeah I agree. That trickery he's playing is what really shows us his villanous side
This is not a theory. It will help you in your videos. In dragon prince season 2, after Aravos confronted Viren, he went to the library to find more information about Aravos but the text in the book deteriorated before Viren could find out any information but we got a quick glance of both the texts the first one was in Danish and the second one was in Arabic. The translation in Danish says “Finally he told me his name. I have never heard a name like his. But i had never imagined an elve(?) like him either. He is stronger and wiser than any other magical creature in Xadia. Yet he is a friend to all people. Where others look down on us, calls us inferiors, he sees great potential in us. When we accept the awards that Aaravos has promised us, they will pay for their conceit they will be forced to see us as equal. And when we are equal, we can take our destiny into our own hands and move our future. I can see it." The translations in Arabic says :-
"Elarion, seeds trembling
Lying on the ground on an icy night.
And in the cold
[She] withdrew her roots
Challenging the sting of the deadly winter.
Elarion, and her blooming flower,
afraid of wilting, darkness and death,
Had searched the dark
For a spark
And so the eyes of the hungry dragon flared.
Elarion, the frightened foundling
Stretched her white branches towards the night.
Asking the stars,
To receive her light,
And to stop the fire of the raging dragon.
Elarion, in a heavy rest,
cried while the stars of the skies turned black
They wore their masks,
Turned their backs,
And left Elarion to die.
Elarion, as her skin struggled death,
Withered and suffered in the dark,
Until the last star,
Reached out from far away
Its touch: a fire, a gift, a spark.
Elarion, and her blinding light,
Embraced the great black flame of night.
And when she bowed,
She declared her faith,
[He] whispered, "Aaravos," his name.
Elarion, black-eyed child,
her twisted roots spread deep and far,
The humans’ might
sparked by the light
of Aaravos, her midnight star."

Woah. That's some hefty amount of information. Thanks for that. Let's see if I can find the time to analyse these. 😊
I'mma call it. Aaravos taught the humans dark magic and humans can actually do magic but the elves made them believe they couldn't because their human.
I reckon you're probably right
Yh that’s literally what happened I watched this video and the translated what it said in the book about aarvos before it disappeared it said something like “ Aarvos sees great things in us and he gave us gifts to finally be equal ” something like that can’t remember
ruclips.net/video/V_JJEnYvyas/видео.html
@@avacado1235 I saw that video too. Crazy stuff.
Thanks for the link!
Considering the fact that it is called a key and it’s presence in calems fever dream (or whatever it’s called) at the end of season 2, I theorize that it is a catalyst that can unlock access to an arcanum based off several varying factors and the element that is trying to be unlocked.
I hope we could actually see more abilities of the cube besides just being a glowing arcanum detector.
Plus my thoughts of what the primal magic represent:
Sky= Wind and electricity
Moon= Spirit
Sun= Fire
Earth= Ground
Ocean= Water and ice
Stars= Light and darkness
I think that's pretty accurate. Except I think light and dark might be their own things as we've seen with dark magic
@@RohaniBoy
You have a point there, though I just really wonder what star magic would look like, as I said last time I'm pretty hyped to see it soon.
I mainly thought of that idea since I was thinking of another show where there is an elemental fairy happens to be the vessel of both light and darkness, which I find pretty cool.
I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens in S3
Mmmm....I suppose that the theory that the key is a way to unlock connectsions is very good
Yeah I've heard this theory floating around. It would make some sense and now that Callum has it maybe he can utilize it.
I think the cube needs to be surrounded by a being connected to each of the primal sources at once in order for its power unlock
The key of aaravos is the key to the humans innerself. It helped callum gain access to his first arcanum. It's meant to help the humans unlock each arcanum and wield it.
Aravos is my ultimate favourite character hands down
guys Aaravos is locked in another plain between time and realities which is a 4d inside a 5d the why he doesn't know where he is
I think ive figured it out....
In the opening scene aaravos is shown.
If you look the star/diamond on his chest is solid and dully glowing. However in his current appearance it is empty and only a outlining with dark center.
The key of aaravos... It has the missing part in it. (Could it hold aaravos's heart?)
Reading the translations in the books at the begining he was in love. This could be what changed everything and why he seems heartless/wanting to destroy everything.
4:33 I'm done that's all I need little baby Callum!
An archmage is like the master of all six primal sources and i would love it if Callum becomes the next archmage
I reckon that's a huge possibility in the next seasons
@@RohaniBoy like the avatar 😂
Haha exactly like the Avatar
Archmages are just master mages. Not that they master all six of the primal sources. They be a master of 1,2, or 3.
lol pls no that would be so cliche -.-
personally i think the key belonging to aaravos just KINDA doesn’t add up as even Viren didnt know about aaravos untill s2. Its very much possible Harrow just didint tell him though. But I honestly cant think of a better theory so... :p
Maybe Harrow only knew the name of the key? Maybe he doesn't know who Aaravos actually is??🤔🤔
i feel if all of the primal people come together at ones and the whole thing glows it will open and then the key will pop out
No it can only glow on one side only aaravos can open it bc he has every arcanum this was confirmed by the creators
The KEY of Aaravos...
At first watch, I immediately concluded that Callum is gonna learn all six primal sources of magic...
On re-watch, I thought, "He's got friends (Rayla and anyone he might come across in Xadia) and possibly a magically attuned brother in Ezran (Earth primal), so learn all primal magic? That'll be a waste of valuable character building, as regards the other protagonists.
Then I thought, it'll be boring if he just learns the one he's learned now, sky magic and be satisfied with it, it doesn't seem like Callum, then I concluded he'll learn about 3 PRIMAL MAGIC.. This sounds good enough..
Now, the matter of a Key in the form of a cube that once belonged to Aaravos and later was passed down through the royal family... Before I pop my theory and possible [Spoiler], I've got some suspicions..
1. Why give it to Callum and not Ezran? When, as we've been led to believe, Callum has never shown an interest in Magic prior to his stumbling on the sky primal stone?
Now to my whack theory..
Aaravos was a magical startouch elf prodigy, loved magic and then stumbled on the key itself, or was passed down to him, by the startouch elves.
Now, I believe the startouch elves were the ruling powers in Xadia, and they knew many secrets and were very knowledgeable so much that they knew the cube was a key to a great power in Xadia. That power being an automatic connection to other sources, or the knowledge of other arcana. Aaravos, being a worthy candidate used the key, passed the test and gained connection to the other sources.
That brings me to my final sentence for season 3. Callum is not gonna learn the primal sources one by one per season, He's gonna master the sky arcanum for the next three seasons and then become a worthy mage to unlock the power that the key fits into...
This might be a little too much, but it's worth sharing, ain't it HUMAN FELLOWS, FELLOW HUMANS?
That makes sense. He needs to learn the sky properly before he starts any other magic. And maybe the key will allow Callum to gain the Powers of the other sources when he's worthy!
Theory: Aaravos was the first to discover dark magic. And because he also was an archmage he was probably the most powerful elf in his time. He got imprisoned but he connected a mirror to his prison so he could teach humans dark magic and bring them on the path of destroying Xadia for his own gain. And that might be to be released or just to be avenged.
Theory the Key unlocks a persons ability to connect to primal sources which is why Callum gained access to the sky arcane and why Aaravos can use all types of magic.
I bet you the Key of Aaravos can only be unlocked when all 6 primal sources are all together
Honestly this show needs more than just 9 episodes per season.
100% agree
But if it has 6 seasons based on the 6 magic types I can say its fair
@@hoosnatisisi9865 Nay i'd like more, also a huge part of what made shows (and unwillingly i use this example) like Avatar appealing to me was companion interactions, journey of the "heroes" it certainly can't be the outcome, because EVERYONE knows the outcome.
I think Callum won't learn each primal source, instead I think as he adventures through Xadia he will meet more elves, he already has Rayla (moon) himself (sky) so maybe as they adventure they will meet elves or maybe even some other magical human like creatures and eventually they will have a team, and then they might only be able to unlock the cube in the dragon king's den, so when they return the dragon prince, they will unlock the box or whatever it is.
What a cool theory. I can't believe no one has thought of this. That's so perfect. Like a team avatar but for dragon prince.
It can also be a key to learning all the arcanums because it helped callum learn the sky arcanum
Nvm you mentioned this in the video
What if they cube was what allowed Aaravos to safely use all forms of magic without killing himself?
I bet his heart is in the box. Make the cube light up and poof, his heart pops out.
Maybe the cube does it's ability when all the primal magic used on it, since it was made by a person who can do all magic. It either is a tool to open something or a tool to use on it's own.
Agreed. It'll definitely be one of the two
@@RohaniBoy Yea, personally I think it's a key, fitting it's name. Also it was in a chest full of keys. If the cube is connected to something big, I wonder why it's not as protected as the mirror?
Maybe Viren stole it when he killed Thunder? Not sure, but the key will be important, as you said
The key is like aang's toys that determines the avatars which is aang. The key can determine the next Archmage.
Bit of an out there one but what if the mirror shows the inside of the cube and that's where Aaravos is trapped, maybe his manipulation is in attempt to create the conditions in which it is necessary for someone (most likely Callum) to learn all six arcanums and set him free. With the divination that comes with the star arcanum this wouldn't be outside of his powers.
Could be? A lot of people have theorised this. So I don't see it as unlikely
Judging from similar shows I've seen about humans getting accepted as gods, I think this is highly possible.
Plus I wonder if destroying the cube would end up destroying the mirror spirit.
Seems kind of lame for Callum to be the Avatar of TDP. Maybe he'll be the key to giving all humans access to the primal forces. Maybe someone in the past blocked humans from magic and Callum broke that roadblock. Ezran has special abilities too, so there's that
I think that the key is how you learn all six Primal Sources because as they said in the series humans can't do Primal Magic but what if this key is how you learn them all, and that's why its called The Key of Aaravos because its the key to the Primal Sources.
Like if you agree.
Also who thinks in season 4 the book will be Ocean or at least I'm hoping because we haven't seen any ocean elves or anything like that
4:08 This show is giving me soo many Avatar vibes and I love it!
Aaravos is trapped in the cube, but if one of every 6 types of elf comes together the cube will glow and release Aaravos.
TDP Avatar. All I gotta say. And maybe, like another person said, after he masters all elements, it'll unlock Light Magic?
Also, on the other hand... Since Aaravos knows some things, being a star touch elf (divination and all that :P ), it's possible he actually foresaw what happened to him, being imprisoned, and made the key as a safeguard to try and escape. Just in case.
"the sexiest dragon prince character" u earned my like w that alone
If Callum does all the kinds of magic does that make him a decendant of Aaravos.
You missed that in the end of season two, the key started glowing before Callum cast the spell. And Callum was feet away from the key, not mere inches.
I have a theory if the cube is the key of Aaravos and Aaravos is trapped in the mirror what If you have to put the cube in front of the mirror and it will create a portal on both sides letting Aaravos escape
Hi I’m from the future we don’t find out about the cube I think we will figure out in the end of season 5 I can’t wait for Season 4 it’s gonna get darker I can’t wait I’m so excited
I think it holds answers and unlocks multiple things. Something definitely happens when all Six sides glow, but I also think that it could be used to enter and/or unlock multiple rooms/doors/areas.Though I'm keeping my money on the possibility that it is the key to some sort of Spell/Ritual or Device.
I think you're right when saying it is some sort of Ritual device. Aaravos is mysterious and it seems like something he might have owned or used.
I think the way to open it is to make every rune glow
I don’t know why but love your channel
Thank you 😍😍
As I'm watching this, I'm trembling with excitement and wonder! What is the Key of Aaravos's point? How will this have an effect? I AM SO EXCITED! And if Netflix cancels the Dragon prince before we find out.....well......
I now know what I want my job to be. I'm gonna be the CEO of Netflix! Can't wait for Season 4!
I might have figured it out the "key of araravoss" he needs to be near it for it to be opened by being near it from the mirror you see i saw a key or archmage power hole idk but I think that it might be true g
I have a theory! WARNING LONG TEXT
So in one of the poems that Viren opened when trying to research Aaravos's name, describes blackening eyes of seemingly a human, and it says "Aaravos, my midnight star". He must've gifted dark magic to humans first, which is why he was taken to the King of all Dragons to decide his fate, since he was the most powerful. Quote from Aaravos "He is the reason I am where I am now" He locked him in a mirror, which I'm gonna use some assumptions about Dr. Strange here. In that mirror dimension, it is connected to the real world, but not quite. Time stops, and destruction does not apply in reality unless the person (or elf here) dies. Then they really die. I beleive that is where Aaravos is. Furthermore, remember they found the cube in Amaya's house? Well, that could've been where Aaravos lived, as it was hidden in a simple drawer. Aaravos most likely need that key to practice magic of all primal sources, he must've created it. I think ... To unlock the dimension he is trapped in, all sides must glow and Aaravos will be free, because he is as described "very powerful".
I’m starting to think that the rest of the series from season 4-6(hopefully possible) is about a quest to find the power hidden in Xadia.
It may help people connect with the primal forms of magic.
Does that mean that Callum might become sparkly and have an unsettling deep voice?
Hope not hahaha
Only is Callum becomes a god like Anan became a goddess (probably wouldn't happen in this show but that'd still be cool. LOL)
What if the box is aaravos's prison ?
Maybe 🤔🤔
Plot twist Aaravos is in the cube
😱😱😱🤔🤔
I think Aaravos is looking for that cube as it is his only way out of the prison he's in... At the beginning I thought, as many others he could be trapped inside, but I don't think the cube is an evil object (unless it's in the wrong hands)
The Key to the Mirror theory was what came to mind first. Now, I think it might be something of two. Either way, we know it most likely opens something. Why else call it a Key? Unless they mean ‘key’ like the key to a map. So it either unlocks something, or reveals the location of something.
1. It allows someone, some way to ‘speak’ to the archanum. With the way it’s described, it could be entirely possible that it’s some sort of ‘energy being’. Like the Portals into the Spirit World from Avatar.
2. This is the one I have the most banking on. The Key allows you to revive the dead through magic. We know so far that mo Mage, human or elf, can reverse death. And with all the characters who’ve died so far in the series, both sides may want to use this power. Perhaps it was something that the Star Elves neglected that fell into the hands of humanity. Aaravos May have tried to teach the humans how to unlock the Key and was thusly sealed in the mirror.
Post your theories anyone who’s read this far. I wanna see what this Fandoms Greatest minds have in store.
Nice theory! Pretty bizzare but we can't rule anything out and I like that. I'm still a believer that it opens a physical place but honestly can't be sure aye
WAIT WHAT IF THE POWER YOU UNLOCK WITH THE KEY OF AARAVOS IN XADIA IS TO MEET HIM AND LEARN THE PRIMAL MAGIC YOU WISH TO LEARN!? does that mean harrow has learned a primal magic since he knows something about it? :0
Maybe 🤔🤔
these are great keep it up
😍 Thanks
I think if all sources are brought together something magical is going to happen
I think to use the cube as a key, the holder must have connection to all the 6 primal sources
Probably the key would explain his facination with humanity.
Ah yes and his fixation with wanting to get out
Guys i think everybody can do all magic, Aarovos is obviously a star elf but he posseses all six arcanums, when he possesed Viren to take the attacking knights out Aaravos used all kinds of magic like electricity(air) and fire(sun) which must mean he knows the arcanums. That could explain why callum can do sky magic. Everybody is born with an arcanum you just have to understand it.
Eslem Tunc he’s a earth elf thats What the father of callum say
@@VT072 when did the dad of callum say that?
I have a theory that it's less that the cube is a key but that Aaravos (or anyone else who can master the six primal sources) is key to transforming the cube or even maybe opening it, perhaps late in the show Callum will have another internal struggle about whether to help Aaravos so he can learn more about the cube or try to master all 6 himself, with the speed in which Callum learnt the sky arcanum without even having a mentor and him wanting to learn the moon arcanum from Lujanne doesn't make it unreasonable for him to learn others imo.
Very true. Callum in unique and I can definitely see him having another struggle later on in the series for the reasons you say
But we KNOW Aaravos is going to be important because he's been part of the plot since the first episode!
Exactly. But just how important we cannot know yet
@@RohaniBoy unfortunately 😔
Maybe in Season 3 🤔
Your videos are great, keep them up! My only complaint is that your video with Ezran was a little soft for me but that may just be my end. Aaravos is sexiest elf but Runaan can take my money any day
Thanks for you comment!
I think we just need more Aaravos I'm general. That voice is so good. Wish my voice was that smooth. Hopefully we learn more about the key in S3 because there is so much mystery right now.
i feel like the cube or the mirror to trap aravos must have been made using elves of all 6 primal sources and their magic to seal him away, and it will be all 6 to release him or trap him again
I think that the key is the key for magic that humans can learn with the symbol that the sewn into the cloth
What if, hear me out... all the elements are brought before the cube and it unlocks literally like a puzzle to reveal something even rarer than what Callum was using at the start for his spells? What if it unlocks a power that allows a mage to use literally any and ALL elements? That might be WHY he was locked up but kept alive in case he was needed. It might also be why humans got the dark power they began to use because he told a human mage but that mage was destroyed by the dragon so he was forgotten and lost to time until Viren found him. Just imagine if Callum, who is learning elements on his own manages to unlock it? I imagine two mages, one elf and the other human but both having unlocked all the powers would make for quite the Epic battle on the scale of when Aang fought at full power in the final last Airbender episode but more so because it'd be like two avatars using elements at full power but each having different knowledge and skills. It would make for a fantastic final episode in the last TDP show, wouldn't it?
I believe that Aaravos invented the key to help him connect to the other Arcanums and that it somehow fell into the hands of one of Harrow's ancestors the same time he was imprisoned.
If you make all of the Primal symbols glow on the cube, will it open the box or free Aaravos? As Aaravos is connected to all Primal Sources.
What if the Key isn't actually a key, but a cage? And the actual "key" is making all six sides of it glow in unison! (Or maybe the key only works when all sides are glowing."
As a master of all the elements, Aaravos would be able to accomplish that himself, so I can absolutely see him using a mechanic like it on his key.
It's pretty obvious from Calum's dream that the key is how he connects to the wind arcanum, and that it holds the power to unlock the others as well. I'm not sure why this is such a stretch for the author of this video.
Will the Animation get better, and the Characters more complex? As well as the jokes?
I would hope so
@@RohaniBoy Yeah, but any indication it will? One cna hope much, but what about statements of the creators? That show has potential, but potential can always be wasted. And there's so much Trash out there, i could really NEED a Good Show.
That's hard to say. The Key of Aravos could be the key, (pun intended)l to keeping him in the pokey,
I dont think callum will be an archmage i think they will find a place like connect the dots style with the nexus
So is Aaravos the star mage that we see in the first episode or once was
I bet it pulls Aaravos out of the mirror or it's storing his power so he can't break out.
If you unlock all the primal sources maybe that actually makes the key
Maybe 🤔🤔
Mabey this cube is some kind of prize from Aavaros? I mean he still tell us he know everything and he want us to know everything to. So mabey if Calum mastered all "natural" elements of magic this cube will open and tell him how to use dark magic without killing magic creaturs?
Yea it's definitely going to hold a secret inside you're right about that. Maybe its about dark magic? Or maybe something else?
Season 3 in and Callum can still do only Sky arcanum stuffs.
Will he master all 6 arcanums by the end of season 7? Find out next time on Dragon Ball... I mean Prince IV.
Btw, which arcanum does Bait belong to?
I think he's the earth arcanum
@@RohaniBoy probably not. Case in point: click on 1:00.
The mountain represents earth arcanum, and it definitely isn't glowing. Neither are star or ocean.
That leaves us with sky, moon and sun. So, what's it gonna be for Bait?
Cross-checking with 0:53, the answer appears to be... sun arcanum(?).
@@sharif47 The Mountain and stuff don't make it glow because they are not magical. When he goes to Xadia in season 3. Everything he points the cube at is glowing because everything there is magical.
@@sharif47 but yea I see it could be sun
@@RohaniBoy sorry for the confusion here. By mountain, I meant the mountain symbol on the cube, not mountain in general.
the key will open when someone connected to all sources holds it
Or maybe the key IS the prison, If you unlock all six primals AND dark magic then you free him, Or kill him. Who knows? Not me
One theory, aaravos is the original dark magic dude from the beginning who has the whole convo and tornado with the dragon king and he wasn’t burnt to ash because he saved himself w/ the dark magic and so when he got caught he was put in this anti dark magic vessel so that he couldn’t go anywhere anymore and so he was turned into a caterpillar but over the years he managed to get some magic in his silk (that thing he put in virens eye) and so slowly though aaravos key he will get his power back like what we see when he makes that cocoon in szn 3
consider how maps have keys, and that the key was given to humans, so maybe it is a guide to dark magic
I agree with the key to his prison. It makes sense
