I can’t overstate how much I adore that Nana Morri has vibes of 1000% being the BBEG in someone else's campaign but in Bells Hells she's just Fearne's quirky Grandma that has a tiki bar, plans company retreats for them, and maybe has a Medusa-esque statue garden on her roof but we don't worry too much about that

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER
But only for part of this. The other is a theory.
Essentially, I thought too long about the "what if Orym multi-classed into a barbarian and got to release all that pent-up rage?" idea. And he asked Morrigan to make him "more capable." HOW DOES THAT MANIFEST??
YA'LL. You know if something remotely like this happens, we'll be able to hear Travis scream with delight through the fabric of space-time.
(Image description below the cut!)
[Image Description: a sketchy comic about Orym's deal with Nana Morri.
Panel 1: (Wide shot of Orym struggling to get up, using his sword to push himself up. He's bleeding from multiple wounds, and the sky above is red, Exandria a small blue dot in the sky.) Badguy (offscreen): You are just a lone, little man in a big fight. What can YOU do?
Panel 2: Fearne: ORYM! (She reaches for him)
Panel 3: Nana Morri (her voice in Orym's mind): Get up. Orym: N-Nana Morri? (his silhouette hacks up a mouthful of blood) Nana: Get up, little Ashari.
Panel 4: Orym: I... (Close up of his left eye, where a yellow-green light has started to shine. Blood trickles down his face, over his eye)
Panel 5: Orym: would like... (Close up of his right hand, clenching the sword)
Panel 6: (A ghostly red silhouette of Nana Morri hovers in the air over Orym, her fanged smile and clawed hands filling the space. Orym is standing, but a little crookedly. Yellow-green light continues to waft like smoke from his left eye.) Nana: You aren't done yet. Orym: ...to rage.

A little collab piece between my wonderful wife Malkbass and I. It's her Fan Theory for Critical Role, that Artagan is Zathuda and the Hag that Jester tricked is Morrigan. There's plenty Reference buried in the image.

I will admit some surprise...
Imogen talks to a God and begs them to help her overcome Delilah and save Laudna.
Laudna was seeking a way to free herself from Delilah and has seen that Imogen is unhappy with Delilah's enhanced presence of late.
Chetney talks to the others about making a deal with Nana Morri.
And yet neither Imogen nor Laudna consider for one moment approaching Nana Morri and making a deal to have the Fatestitcher become Laudna's new Warlock Patron instead of Delilah.
Funny, that.

Orym and the Hag
I made a compilation to clips about where Orym's head was at going into that deal with Morri. They really hit harder for me seeing them back to back.
Clips:
E77 Orym and Fearne the morning after the girls' night Whitestone Underground Tour. Later that day Ashton absorbed the shard.
E79 Orym talks to Ashton for the first time after the shard incident.
E79 Morrigan lays out the rules of the Honesty trial.
E79 Orym tells his two truths in the Honesty trial.
E80 Bell's Hells decompress after the trial. Everyone has powder keg issues to work on, even Orym.
E81 Orym makes a self-sacrificing deal with Mori.

Post CR3 Episode 30 Thoughts: The Calloways and Intention/Impact
So I was right in my previous post that Birdie and Ollie are both irresponsible idiots. They willingly left their child daughter in the care of a known hag called the Fatestitcher and are then surprised when it's implied that Ira; you know child kidnapper/experimenter may have struck a deal with said HAG.
Trading away portions of their daughter's life/time. Her childhood in exchange for materials. Birdie and Ollie left Fearne when she was 8 years old, she's now 112 that is over 100 years of Fearne's life gone. And when their daughter brought up the years lost, they continued to brush it off until their daughter pieced together in like an hour of knowing Ira. They had 6 years to suspect something was fishy, 6 years to ask Ira what exactly they were building. 6 years of complete and utter irresponsibility.
Now I'm gonna talk about Intention vs Impact. Some may argue that Birdie and Ollie aren't bad parents because they ment well, that they risked 6 years of their lives, they had to work with morally dubious people all for they sake of their daughter. To keep Fearne safe. I have no doubt that they both love Fearne with all they have, but love isn't the only thing that makes you a good parent. They ment well, therefore they're good parents. The ends justify the means.
Now let's look at the impact of their actions. Fearne is a complete stranger to her parents, Fearne is so emotionally constipated that at the reveal of her being traded all she had to say was "Well that puts a wrinkles on things." Fearne has lost over 100 years and lived 100 years without her parents, that she can never get back.
They risked Fearne's childhood and lost. They should have never played with Fearne's life like that, they robbed her of her autonomy. Even if it was accidental. They knew Morri was a hag. They knew she was a Fatestitcher. Yet the played with Fearne's life, and yes, it was for Fearne's safety but was her safety really worth this?
I've seen people compare Birdie and Veth. Yes they both left their children in the care of others, for that child's safety and in Veth's case to give her time to reevaluate whether being a stay at home mum was what she wanted to return to. The difference is intention and impact.
Veth's intention: Keep Luc safe and have time for some introspection.
Impact: Luc was kept safe with his father and veth created a life where she runs a summer camp and takes care of her son.
Birdie's intention: Keep Fearne safe while she and Ollie further investigate Rudius.
Impact: Fearne has over 100 years stolen from her by a known hag and they may have unintentionally helped build a device that does something and accidental trading their daughter to said fatestitching hag.
It doesn't matter what their intentions were anymore because the impact has irreversibly changed Fearne's life, a life they accidental traded away.

When lost in the woods, remember the Exandrian fairytale that warns against following a beautiful faun who would love to show you her Nana’s garden.

It is so funny that Allura in talking about Morrigan is like "she's a voyeur of insecurity" and the scene last episode was her making an eladrin who didn't hold up his end of a deal with her fuck up an important presentation as she watched from afar. She's like Isharnai but instead of feeding off misery she simply delights in cringe.

Nana Morri and The Matron of Ravens
So we’ve all already seen the similarities between Nana Morri and The Morrigan from Irish Celtic Mythology. I only know a smidge about this goddess, so I wanted to do a bit more reading on her, mostly so I’d feel fully informed for when we get to see her more next week. Upon my first search of her and scrolling through images to get a sense of visuals, I can’t stop thinking of the Matron of Ravens.
“The Morrígan was an Irish goddess of death, destiny, and battle. A trio of sisters who could take the form of a single goddess, she was the keeper of fate and a purveyor of prophecy.” (from Mythopedia here)
So The Morrigan is a shapeshifter; she can appear as three individual sisters who can act independently or appear as one goddess. She commonly takes the form of a crow/raven, a young maiden, or an old woman.
This will sound wild, but what if Nana Morri, who has two faces and two voices, and the Matron of Ravens are altogether an Exandrian version of The Morrigan?
Could Nana Morri and the Matron somehow be the same goddess but in split bodies and across different planes? Sure it may not make a ton of sense, especially rules-wise, but the Matron is a god, after all.
This could tie into Morrighan Ferus’s destruction of the Matron of Ravens bust in EXU Kymal.
The Morrigan is also known for foretelling doom, death, or victory in a battle. The Matron of Ravens foresaw the Calamity and the destruction it would rain down.
We know the Matron was a high-level Wizard who developed “rites” to ascend into godhood. What if she had cast the 8th level necromancy spell, Clone, before she performed these rites as like a failsafe? Did the Matron retain her mortal soul when she ascended? Or did her soul still return to the clone? Maybe her soul split? What if that clone became the Hag we know as Morrigan Calloway, The Fatestitcher? It’s a wild thought, I know. But it’s a fun thought nonetheless.
Idk how to fully explain my thought process, and it’s a super wild theory, but still. I feel like there’s more to explore here, but I will wait until we know more about Nana Morri next week to keep digging.

Since you haven't done CR yet; Fearne and "gleam"? 💐😈
Red, red, red – it has always been her favourite colour, the way it dances and flickers and burns. Sometimes, her dreams are cast in red too, a moon like an eye watching her from the sky, and the forests glow and glimmer as they burst into embers and go up in flames around her.
Nanna smiles with both her mouths and says that these are good dreams, and that Fate has many plans for Fearne. As the Fatestitcher Herself, she would know, Fearne supposes, and soon forgets all about it. There is much to do, after all – singing with the flowers, befriending the local fauna, admiring her Nanna’s vast collection. Less important things slip from her mind so very easily.
But every now and then, her eyes will linger on the fireplace, and the flickering flames will dance and call to her, and they’re so red red red and beautiful, and they almost don’t even hurt when Fearne reaches her hands into their hearts to steal the gleaming embers at their centre.
Oh, Fearne is very fun to write! >:) That flighty POV is a delight.
Drabble requests are still open btw, guys - just leave me an ask if you have an idea! I've been enjoying these so much, but I'm all out of asks and I'd love to do some more!

Just thinking this morning about how an episode ago Orym literally screamed out how lonely he his to his friends *twice* and no one ever addressed it.
"Orym's got some shit going on" Ashton's been saying for months, but never brings it up *with* Orym.
He knelt in front of Fearne and watched her slip even further from his comprehension.
"Orym's fine" "Orym's the normal one" Sure, Orym's *sad* but that's normal, too, right? He isn't possessed by an evil archmage or anything. Time for that later.
Thinking about Beau walking into Isharnai's hut and very nearly trading her future with her family away so Veth could have hers. How resigned she was that it was simply fact, she didn't matter, but Veth did.
I wonder if anyone will even ask Orym this time? Will anyone even notice? Or will he have a new spring in his step, an even more determined focus, and they'll think, "Well, it looks like whatever's going on doesn’t matter right now"?
He asked for all of them to make it back from the moon alive, so I'm going to assume that means him, but what state does Morrigan the Fatestitcher consider "alive"? And for how long after their arrival back on Exandria do they have to remain so for the deal to be complete? Does he really think he won't make it back in order to have the deal be moot anyway?
There's every possibility Fearne finds out her best friend plans on staying trapped in the Feywild forever and tears Orym out if the deal. But she has to know about it first and I'm not sure what would make Orym tell her at this point.

I am losing it over not telling Laudna where the shard is to promptly turn around and go, "Hey, we should go to a fucked up realm of innate dream magic," and Allura Vysoren of the Arcana Pansophical, who does not know about Delilah Briarwood being around at the moment, is going to babysit them and Morrigan, the Fatestitcher. This can ONLY go well.

Congratulations, you are tethered to cursed knowledge with us.
We're coming back from the end-of-year break to quite the predicament for Bells Hells and quite the lore drop for us. If you need a quick jog for your fresh new-year memory, here's a small listing of articles from the Critical Role wiki that may be the place to go:
Grim Verity, group dedicated to researching the potentially blasphemous. They've scattered and gone into hiding after their discovery of secret truths about Ruidus and theft of protected texts from Vasselheim relating to this.
Predathos, a being that arrived to Exandria during the Founding and consumed two gods. It was imprisoned by the remaining gods and the primordials, but the prison refused to be sent away and instead became Ruidus.
Ethedok and Vordo, the gods consumed by Predathos. Their existence, along with that of Predathos, is a secret highly guarded by the highest ranked clerics of Vasselheim.
Judicator, order of warriors from Vasselheim. They are fully dedicated to the service of the gods and undergo rituals to transform themselves to this purpose. They are hunting for the Grim Verity to retrieve the stolen texts.
Ruidusborn, individuals born while Ruidus is flaring. Exaltants are a subset of Ruiduborn who manifest magical ability, believed to indicate a stronger connection to Ruidus. The Grim Verity believes Exaltants derive their power from Predathos.
Morrigan, the Fatestitcher to many, Nana Morri to Fearne. She is the guardian of a fane in the Feywild. Bells Hells is interested in her help altering the flow of time between the Fey Realm and Exandria, should they commit to a visit to that plane.

What is Morri advised Birdie and Ollie to have Fearne in Material plane, so they could lay low because she knew about the Ruidus flares? What if her and Ira were working together since the beginning. Morri would get another trinket to collect and keep while Ira had up close access to a Ruidusborn?
She is called the Fatestitcher for a reason.
