#the edge of the world

[slowpokegamer]

I was talking about this last night in my groupchat, but I've been in shambles lately thinking about how fresh little 19 year old baby Dandelion was ready to fucking DIE alongside Geralt during the short story "The Edge of the World"

Like he just met this white haired bozo. Geralt was about to convince the elves to SPARE him and Dandelion was like "KILL ME TOO OR ELSE I'LL SET THE WORLD AGAINST YOU, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!!!!"

I can't breathe, he's somehow just the stupidest motherfucker in the world and also somehow the most LOYAL ASS BITCH IN EXISTENCE. He loves his friends so much, he loves GERALT, so much 😭😭 He was gonna get revenge for Geralt if the elves killed him through whatever means he was able to and he was 100% serious on that threat

He literally barely knew Geralt and he was ready to give up EVERYTHING, he immediately decided he was going to be bonded to this broody asshole for the rest of his life and THATS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED

I care about them so much. They make me want to start tearing up carpets, I'm gonna be sick /pos

Poor King...

During what He's told is some big initiation ceremony for his people he asks this horribly innocent question.

He doesn't care about the ceremony. He just wants to play with his "family". With the closest thing he's had to a paternal figure his entire life so he can make up for lost time. The same paternal figure who was going to watch by and watch him get stabbed had Luz not intervened.

And after its all over and his "family" is sealed off on the other end of a destroyed portal. He just says...

It's so simple yet also means so much if you think about it. He doesn't just want to go home. He wants his family. He wants Eda, He wants his Mom there til the betrayal he feels stops hurting as he hides in her hair. He wants his sister to sit there for as long as she can before she leaves for good.

He just wanted his family.

When you realise that if the Titan corpse is presumably a fully grown adult, any titan skull small enough to fit a humanoid sized witch would have most likely belonged to a toddler/child Titan right?

So King's age (Spoilers for edge of the world below)

So with the revelation that King is the son of a titan and the fact that he remembers his dad's roar, his egg must be extremely old. The titan now is a decaying mass everybody lives on and for a body that large to have decayed to such a state and for life to have been there since before the 1600s, king's egg must be centuries even possibly thousands of years old.

No wonder Dana said that King's age was a spoiler in the reddit ama. He's literally been in gestation for hundreds upon hundreds of years before inevitable hatching.

And for him to be born all alone, next to his dead father's body, that means his dad must have died protecting him from something or someone to which I believe is the collector. (Proper theory post will be made soon)

My god The Owl House has just unveiled a totally new plot point while simultaneously tying everything together. There are so many other titan bodies, other civilizations, and portal magic on a huge continental scale.

I'm honestly still in shock at how much got revealed this episode.

You're telling me that King is the son of a titan, is living in the remains of a titan, which could quite possibly be a relative of his, that he can somehow summon the Collector, and he wanted to find his family to prepare for Luz going back to the human realm?

AND YOU EXPECT ME TO BE OKAY WITH ALL OF THIS???

✨ TOH spoilery analysis big old rant ahead ✨

ohh man, this is something I’ve always loved about TOH but it’s really hitting now... I’ve had a longstanding interest in the developmental history of gods, deities and their archetypes throughout human culture, and it fascinates me how, some cultures (talking about western culture here since I’m not a voice for anything else) have gods who are vast, powerful, otherworldly embodiments of the forces of nature here on Earth, and others have gods who embody the basic structures of civilization: agriculture, building, hunting, relationships, etc. in a lot of cases it’s a mix of both, and sometimes a transition from the former to the latter.

and you can observe the evolution of humanity’s shift from hunter-gatherer living to modern civilization through it - the shift in archetypal gods is a mirror to what we collectively prioritize and focus on for our survival throughout history. and in western cultures, particularly in Greek mythology which served as a basis for our philosophy and intellectual fixations, the natural gods tend to get demonized by the narratives: they were chaotic, ravenous, violent, emotionless, beastly things who ruled over the Earth in its early, primordial days, and had to be usurped, overthrown, and locked away - and literally referred to as titans in the terminology.

in essence, they were dethroned by the civilization gods, but I think the resentment towards the natural gods is more of a developed retrospective: it’s a lingering, psychological fear of what it was like to live as a part of nature, part of the food cycle - because being an animal living in the wild must have been fuckin terrifying, and being able to build houses and towns and farm longlasting food and forge families was like. a sigh of RELIEF. them civilization gods are pretty great from that angle. but the western mind tends to pathologize this: to portray natural gods as purely destructive forces, denying the fact that we worship them because they are gods of the Earth, forgers of the land, the givers of life.

because even now, the Titan’s dead, decomposed corpse is giving life to the people of the Boiling Isles - it’s the very land they live on. and it’s obvious that it cares for them, the same as King cares deeply for his family - it gives them magic, wants to communicate with them, and tries to protect them from. violent colonizers 😒 and the same self righteously invented propaganda that he uses against witches applies to nature, too, and the gods that embody that nature - the titan trappers describing titans as being endlessly hungry, monstrous, destructive, mindless beasts, is a similar energy to western culture labelling archaic, primordial titans as cruel gods who had to be imprisoned for the greater good.

and I just... really love The Owl House for diving further into this narrative. there are stories about how big, violent forces (capitalism, militarism, missionary Christianity, colonialism etc) target, destroy and exploit an element of nature that has been painted by them as evil or demonic, and TOH really adds to that conversation with how deep its story runs. and I love how deeply rooted in a desire for compassion for and connection with those natural forces it feels, because everything that has happened to the titans sounds like a fucking tragedy. the more I learn about the horrors the titan race have been through, the more I can see myself as a Boiling Isles citizen yearning for a world still in connection with them, thriving alongside them.

it’s a story of loss, and grief, and mourning a past way of life - an estranged bond with something bigger than us, that nurtured us and tended to us in that strange, amoral way nature does. and TOH points to exactly the kind of hateful groups and mentalities who have perpetrated this tragedy, reminding us that this way of life is not an inherent fault of humanity’s, nor is it a punishment for our ignorance, but rather the direct result of intentional, planned action made by those who sought to profit and gain power from it. but it really moves my little animal heart, too - it speaks to the part of us that are still wild, are still untamed, are still one with the terrifying masses of flesh and claws that are the titans: but are still worthy of being seen from multiple angles, and be celebrated and honoured, too. because even hurricanes can be forces of creation, and even volcanic eruptions create new land 🥺

Okay im gonna do a bigger post about this episode but first.I just wanted to point out a weird little detail that struck me as odd in The Edge of The World.

The tabbard the Titan Trappers use to cover King's face depicts the Collector...crying. You know silly, manic and the ever smiling Collector, crying. That seems kinda odd right?

Could the Collector have some tragedy that happened to them? Cause them crying seems wildly out of the ordinary for what we know of him. Maybe it's the reason they hate or at least hunt down rare demons like they do.
