Season 5 will reflect season 2 Theory
Season 4, despite its flaws, was a clear-cut reflection of Season 1. Here are some examples (There are many MANY more, I can make another post about it while waiting for Season 6) :
- Harrow’s and Ibis’ deaths (Harrow gives The Key of Aaravos and Ibis his staff – to Callum) - Harrow gives a letter and Ibis his last breath (message). Both talk about Aaravos.
- Callum meets Rayla for the first time in Episode 2 of Season 1 – He sees her again for the first time in Episode 2 of Season 4.
- In both Seasons 1 and 4, episode 3 ends with death and both have a message regarding said death (Runaan’s arrow on Harrow’s death + Ibis’ breath on his own death).
- The rest of the Season is about going UP the mountain to save Zym – while in Season 4 they are going INSIDE the mountain.
- Both Lujanne and Rex Igneous are unable to help the group – In both cases Callum finds the answer (use the Primal Ball – understand it’s a map).
- Both last episodes end with the “bad” gang finding a map (Claudia’s dark magic spell in Season 1)
!Bonus note on Rayllum: They are not in love in the first season and almost the same can be said about season 4. They are not exactly together yet and Callum seems to act like Season 1 Rayla while Rayla is more cheery like Season 1 Callum.
Ever since we got the Season 5 trailer and screenshots, I couldn’t stop myself from comparing them to Season 2. So here are some examples!
Beautiful irony! In the first episode of Season 2 Janai and Amaya fight to the death and the sword Janai used to destroy Amaya’s sword is gifted to Amaya in Season 4.
Both Seasons will start in Katolis.
The tables have turned! While Aaravos was secretly desperate to use Viren for his own benefit, now Viren needs Aaravos to save his life.
Just like Callum had to fight his inner dark self, Viren comes to realise how he lost his own battle and that it’s probably too late.
Keys vs Doors.
The Callum-Viren parallels continue (Dark Magic Coma).
The Great Bookery! Both Season 2 Viren and Season 5 gang look for information on Aaravos. They end in battle : Viren against Katolian soldiers, the gang against corrupted banthers. Talking of bathers...
Season 2 banther vs Season 5 banther.
Sol Regem is back!
Claudia and Soren using an empowered arrow with dark magic vs Callum and Rayla using sky magic on an arrow!
Season 2 Pirate city vs Season 5. Quite the different tone huh...
Meeting the pirate!
The boat from Season 2 is quite similar with the one from Season 5. I doubt they’re the same though.
Struck by lightening. We’ve seen this before... Could a similar turn of events happen in Season 5? What if the gang is on the white boat and are attacked by the pirates on the red boat. What if like Season 2, Callum and Zym go together, but to slow the pirates down (being the only ones that can fly).
Season 2 Claudia uses an octopus-like creature to catch the gang when they try to escape on Phoe phoe. Well what if she uses it again to catch... Callum?
We’ll have to wait and see. Thank you for reaching the end. ^^

GUYS I HAVE A THEORY ABOUT TDP
so I was rewatching the show and got to the 4th ep where callum and Rayla are talking about the primal stone and I started thinking
The primal stones all have the pure essence of primal magic right but we have only seen 1 and it had a storm in it and I thought
Wow it kinda looks like Aaravos’s prison a bit
What if Aaravos is trapped inside a primal stone???
Sorry but I think I can finally say it
“But that’s just a theory,A FLIM THEORY” ok I’ll go now lmao

Have you thought about how Rayla's parents probably knew their time with her was limited?
Not in a "we're gonna die someday" kind of way, 'cause every parent knows that the most probable thing is they'll die before their child. But in a way, they knew at some point in Rayla's life they would leave, 'cause they had a duty in the Dragon Guard they couldn't deny or change. And as far as they know, it could be as soon as Rayla was born, it could be weeks till they were summoned, months, decades, years, whatever, but eventually they would've left no matter what.
I think when they did Rayla was 8-10 years old, but what would've happened if the egg appeared when Rayla was only a few months old? The entire timeline would've changed.
Picture that scene, they leave when Rayla was a baby, and then return after years to find their baby now grown up into a child or even an early teen girl.
Returning to our actual timeline. I can imagine both of them, Tiadrin and Lain being fearful of conceiving a child knowing that at some point they'll have to leave. I bet Runaan and Ethari played a huge role in them making the decision to be a little bit indulgent and fulfilling their wish to be parents.
With this knowledge that they could be summoned anytime to the Storm Spire obliging them to leave Rayla, I can assure you they make every single moment with her count. Every bday, every meal, every day of school, they try to be the best parents anyone could ever imagine. Maybe they could've spoiled Rayla a little bit, which, being fair, isn't that bad considering how much she has suffered since they left.
Rayla loves them so much, even if when she was 15 she held a grudge against them, now, at 18 she can admit how much she loves them and misses them and regrets telling the boys her parents were dead.

“Aaravos.”
ear movements
the times i’ve watched it in the past i always read this scene as aaravos being a little annoyed (as he must have known his name would yield no results) or showy (for lack of a better word). but upon rewatching:
it kind of seems to me like aaravos is a bit scared and trying to hide it because of the way elf ears tend to move (down in fear). or at least, rayla’s:
although it could have been an expression of a different emotion i suppose
why was aaravos nervous?
was aaravos scared to give viren his name? and if so, why?
was he scared to connect to another human because of potential loss, and didn’t want to have more connection than necessary?
or did he have something to hide? did he think there was a chance viren might have heard of him before (as harrow had, probably passed down through oral history) and would be wary and he would lose his only chance at escaping?
i mean he has some idea it’ll all work out anyway, but it still seems to me that he felt he was taking a bit of a risk albeit a necessity
just some thoughts.

HOW IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS: I was rewatching dragon prince season 2 episode 9 and Viren was POSSESSED BY AARAVOS!!!!??! I don’t know why I don’t remember this, but it happened! Look at aaravos eyes and viren’s, they look like they did when callum was possessed!
I know the eyes look more blue in these pics, but they look exactly the same in real life, I just can’t get good pics.
