Have we confirmed if this Startouch is infact Aaravos?
And since we have confirmed magical jewelry (Kim’daels collar), -
Could this possibly be an Aaravos forced to participate in the exiling of humans to the west & mayhaps whatever transpired before the lava river was created?
-
Additions-
So this past-Aaravos may have been barefoot, way bluer, and decked in silver anklet bits, cuffs, collar, waistband, and circlet. —Maybe even little thingamabobs on his horns…. Not to mention his eyes are a solid light/glowy color.
All of which is quite opposite to his current design.
Man I have so many thoughts but I have no idea how to articulate them

Okay my brain just came up with something weird. So according to this person's startouch = unicorns theory.
We know that the startouch child is Leola
So if we assume that this other elf shown in the statue in the Sea of the Castout is Leola, I have one little observation. I don't see any horns on her. Just some sticking out parts of hair + the headpiece and the elven ears
Where is the horn???? Oh wait-

I have a theory (or three) on the Secret to the Star Arcanum
So first off, I am an utter SLUT for Startouch lore. Obviously, look at the handle. But like, I'm currently in the works of a fic for a Startouch-descended character and even creating constellations and stories for them in the TDP world. Like, I'm down bad for them as I am for Rayllum (and trust that I'm down BAD).
The thought for the star arcanum's secret was, of course, a shower thought that I think really works:
Eternity is ever-changing, and that change is the only constant in this or any world.
I think about how the stars move constantly throughout the year and how the Startouch elves are essentially immortal gods looking down on mortals from the starry night sky. I think about how our favorite characters grow and change throughout the duration of TDP as a whole and how the world of TDP changes from the beginning of Book One to the end of Book Five thus far.
Everyone and everything is constantly changing and shifting, no matter how bad we wish it wouldn't or wish to go back to how life was before. Sure, you could say this kinda ties more with the ocean arcanum with how there are depths you just don't know and things you can't control - something that comes as a byproduct of constant change - but when you think about how the stars move throughout the year as the world turns round and the immortality of the Startouch elves that are still very much a mystery to us - and I feel especially with the show progressing, seeing our favorite characters grow and change along with the world they live in - it makes a lot of sense that that could be the secret to the stars - as well as a nice poetic way to wrap up the show or something.
Edit: However, upon actually looking at the wiki (because I tend to get ahead of myself lol) and further reflection, it could very well be tied into the recurring theme of destiny.
I look at what the stars are associated with according to the fandomwiki: vision, truth, intelligence, otherworldly, reality-altering, timelessness, mystery, destiny, and wishes. And I think about the constant recurring theme in Callum's arc about destiny
So perhaps the star arcanum can answer the question on destiny? Just a thought.
ALTHOUGH, I am also entertaining one final, possible secret: that there is none. It simply just is.
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I know, but the wiki also states that many have tried and agonized over the secret of the stars and could not find the words to truly describe it. And when you look once more at the associations to the stars - vision, truth, intelligence, otherworldly, reality-altering, timelessness, mystery, destiny, and wishes - it wouldn't be totally crazy for the secret the all-knowing First Elves were born with knowing is that there simply isn't a secret. That all that exists simply exists in the time and space in which it exists.
And I'm kinda leaning towards this theory now that I read it out loud.

Do you think that all magic came from the startouch Elves since they are the first elves?
I never really thought about it but now yes We've seen aavoros give Viren powers in the castle so they probably could give out magic... but that also makes me wonder why they didn't give humans magic

King Harrow had once been visited by Lady Justice in a dream- but he’d forgotten a detail in relaying her message.
She was a Startouch Elf.
-
Ezran, Callum, Rayla, and Aaravos all have their own set of divine visitors and trials from the stars, facing themselves and their fates, the light and the dark.

Rereading this moment in Tales of Xadia and squealing since a female Startouch elf was mentioned here!
