It's wild to see the dynamic between Prime and Betrayer gods when they're nominally on the same side.

The whole part where the Wildmother is like "Why should I stop the Spider Queen from collecting her champion and putting her on the field?" was amazing. The Prime Deities care about mortals, but in this case, it's all hands on deck, please save our asses. Even if the Primes don't approve of the Betrayers' methods (which, debatable given k'nauth and judicators seem to be the same thing with the difference being who they devoted themself into oblivion for), right now, they're going to allow it because the Betrayers are trying to stop the release of Predathos too and whatever works, works.

And Champions are a god's most potent tool in working on the Prime Material Plane, so why would the Wildmother stop the Spider Queen from setting one of her best bets at affecting things into motion when it's for a mutual goal? This is the gods' favoritism at play. Who they will try to protect, who they will ask to make sacrifices, who they will let fall to the fate that individual has chosen.

Opal may not have known what she agreed to in accepting being the Spider Queen's Champion, but she did agree to it. What happens now is the path she chose, even if she didn't know the consequences waiting in that decision. And the other gods aren't going to try to change that path unless Opal is used to interfere with their own goals. It's not their place. And in this case, it's in their interest to let this play out.

i love the characterization of the wildmother that aabria presents. sometimes i forget that she is very much on the chaotic end of the spectrum. lolth wants a champion to help fight predathos? fine, let her have her because it will benefit me in the end. gosh this pantheon is always so JUICY

I don't know about any of this. It's all a bit overwhelming - cities and nature and deities overlapping. Would you please do something or show me something or intervene or take agency in my life and show me how best to move toward achieving that sort of change?

I mean, Fjord, I could have answered that one. All of us, me here, you here, these people... this is intervention. - c2e75

On a more lighthearted note, I'm just imagining the Raven Queen and the Wildmother on their way to the Fey Wild to fight Morri for Orym's custody

I love the relationship between The Wildmother and Orym and Fearne. It’s not worship, it might not even be the road to worship, but there’s something there. They’ve communicated, she’s given gifts. They know (hope, now) that she’s watching them.

Before Fearne and Orym were Bell’s Hells, she asked them “Why are you here?” The Wildmother told Orym there is so much in the world she would have him see, and she gave him a seed to carry. Months later she’d let him smell the scent of Will of again and she would bless Orym’s sword now turned Seedling, The Wayward Pilgrim. Fearne knows there’s something between her friend and this goddess. Fearne offered a gold coin in The Wildmother’s temple as thanks. At Uthodurn she offers The Wildmother’s own flowers at her shrine in Uthodurn and asks the goddess (“Hey bitch”) to tell Orym that the rest of the team is okay. Fearne does not know if Orym is okay. But she doesn’t say that. That night, Orym feels a comforting gaze on him as he takes watch and he dances with a forest’s nature spirits.

It’s amazing that both Fearne and Orym prayed to the Wildmother for the first time around the same day of each other, both not really knowing if they were doing it right or if the Wildmother was listening, and she answered.

Its very important to me that the timing of Fearne's plea to the Wildmother and Orym's plea to the Wildmother are close to each other in the timeline. Partly for: the heartwrenching image of Orym, exhausted, voice sad and tired, fresh off of his friends, again, wondering if the gods are- worth the hassle. Pleading to the Wildmother, desperate and lost. Unaware that somewhere, sometime adjacent, Fearne, scared but whole, had wandered into the Wildmother temple. And prayed to a god she wasn't sure was alive, leaning on Orym's faith, thinking of him, channeling him, for his sake. Asking to- above all else, let him know they're alright? He'll be worrying. (And he was. And he is).

And partly for the image of the Wildmother, presumably very busy with some kind of apocalypse handling logistics, to either:

- Recieve Fearne's ask of "hey..... tell Orym we're okay (and maybe keep him okay too. if you can)" only to immediately recieve Orym's message and go "oh yeah hes absolutely NOT okay, oof"

OR

- Recieve Orym's wavering, heartfelt plea, followed immediately by "hey lady!! if you're still alive can you tell orym we're okay-" and thinking "oh yeah Orym your friends are fine-"

(i cant figure out which is funnier. in a tragic kind of way.)

#dont get me wrong fearne was absolutely having a hard time throughout the wildemount arc too. the separation was HARD on her.#but theres something about the shared- the best way to make orym feel better is to let him know everyone else is okay #and fearne knowing that and speaking in those terms and mean while everyone involved (fearne. orym. us. melora) are well aware that the #question is 'are fearne and the others okay' but the biggest benefit is for orym. who is VERY not okay #critical role #c3e62 #orym #fearne #fearnrym #cr spoilers #LISTEN. i am trying to make a shipost but my sentences are coming out too long. and character dives keep sneaking in. im sorry. but also #not.#character meta #speculation #shitpost #the wildmother #melora

There are so many moments that I'm anticipating for the Mighty Nein animated series. There are so many moments.

But one that consistently sticks with me is the moment with Fjord at the Kiln.

The scene is already plenty cinematic on its own. You can imagine volcanic underlighting. You can imagine the peaceful quiet of the night. Fjord, alone, sword in hand, is finally done. He challenges his patron and holds his pact blade against his chest.

But we can do a little more with this.

Because the funny thing about that moment is that every time Fjord would have a nasty dream and sneak out during C2, Matt would have Travis roll a stealth check. If only to see if he could make it out without being noticed. Sometimes his rolls weren't great.

But the night at the Kiln, Travis rolled a natural twenty on stealth. That's cool, except in hindsight. I hadn't realized until a re-watch, but because of that natural twenty-

Well, because of that, if Fjord had done enough damage to go unconscious beside the volcano, no one would've known.

Crazy, huh?

.....We can use that.

Have Fjord at the volcano.

Take a second where he's just standing there: considering the blade.

Then, he brings it up to his chest, delivers his ultimatum and waits for an answer. We cut to the Nein sleeping, huddled together. We cut to the Dust family, also sleeping. Spend a few more moments with Fjord, where nothing happens.

Then he steps forward and drives the blade into his chest. Give the audience a second to process.

Cut back to those who are sleeping.

Fjord drives the blade deeper in and takes another step forward.

Cut to the sleeping Nein.

Cut to one more step, one more push, a soft wind that eases the pain, and then the final throw.

Draw the scene out. Add to the anxiety of the moment by cutting back and forth. Have all of this go on while reminding the audience that the rest of the Nein have no way to know or intervene if things get bad.

Let's get the newbies screaming at the screen for everybody to wake up and keep Fjord from killing himself.

That might be fun.

Wildmother: this is my child Caduceus. he’s spent his whole life devoted to service of the natural world. he has the deepest connection to me of anyone since the divine gate went up.

Wildmother: and this is my son Fjord. he’s made pacts with two evil deities. he returned to the sea multiple times despite having unfinished business with the great leviathan.
