I don't thing he has to be evil but I do think he is going to be the villian of the story. Maybe All the other elves saw humanity as beneath them and he thought it was wrong. Maybe he tried to help but instead of teaching them primal magic they learned dark magic and he was banned for helping. Now he wants revenge? I don't know maybe it's just the point that I always try and see the good in people. (Not necessarily a good trait)
So guys, I am a big nerd who loves foreshadowing in fantasy. While watching Season 2 of TDP, I took screenshots of the books Viren found in the library when he was trying to look up Aaravos, just in case they were decipherable…
And this book looks like it was written in a Germanic language!
So I typed the words into Google Translate, and they’re in Danish!
(TDP fans who actually speak Danish, please forgive me for this terrible google translate job. And fix my mistakes if you want, because I’m not sure I spelled anything correctly. XD)
From the top of the first screenshot:
From the second screenshot (same page; this screenshot was easier to read):
Conclusions:
Aaravos is super powerful
In the past, he helped one group of people fight another. From the way this is written, he probably helped the humans fight the elves.
The author says they have never heard a name like Aaravos before (they’re not an elf) and that others call their people “inferior.” Sometimes humans are perceived this way in the show because they can’t do magic. Aaravos encouraged the author’s people to take control of their destiny.
He also gave them “awards.” I looked up “foraæringerne” and I think “gifts” is a better translation. He gave humans magic? Weapons? Magical weapons? Maybe he taught them dark magic!
This reinforces the already convincing theory that he’s a villain
@aceroruga clarified for me that “indbildskehed” means vanity or conceit. “They must pay for their vanity,” yikes!
@fallkos clarified that “bygge vones fremtid” means “build our future.” Ironically, that’s what Google Translate wrote before I changed the spelling of some other word. The algorithm was working against me lmao
The TDP team has mastered foreshadowing
I am going to sleep now
EDIT: The second book is in Arabic, and @restuffedants translated the screenshot!
Okay okay okay! Here's my pitch: Obi-Wan saving Maul from Sidious, on Mandalore. Like, right when Sidious is about to go off with the Force Lightning at the end of "The Lawless", Obi-Wan steps in and shields Maul, against all expectations, lightsaber drawn. Your art is amazing by the way, just love the range of expressions you're able to make your characters convey!
This prompt threw me down a spiral, my poor heart.
Okay, I have something important to say. According to book four, Xie Lian can actually make decent food, and he cooks bad on purpose (spoiler next)
He does it to honour his dead mom cuz her cooking was *cough* shit *cough*
Anyway, this is sad and wholesome, but this also means that he could have just warned the other characters, or maybe cooked nice food for them but NOPE
He woke up and CHOSE food poisoning.
He did this to Shi Qingxuan, He Xuan, Pei Su, intended to do it to Feng Xin and Mu Qing.
This man just went: "I'm mourning her, and if you don't drink the recommended amount of water after eating this we will also be mourning YOU"
A few things to start off: I’m translating this from the Chinese novels to English. Chinese is my mother tongue while English is my first language. I’ve had formal education, but understandably some things are lost in translation from Japanese > Chinese > English. I’ll do my best to explain them, but please enjoy this with a teaspoon of salt. I try to keep to the original intent as much as English grammar will allow, but the gist is more or less there. For this part, I haven’t had much trouble other than one part, which I’ve added a postscript note for.
Please don’t hesitate to shoot me an ask if anything sounds wrong or looks weird! If anyone wants to proofread these for me I’d be eternally grateful. I’m doing these at my own pace, so if anyone wishes to help out just let me know, I’d be more than happy to join forces.
Without further ado.

So true, can we please talk about the fact that not only his wife (he by the way probably still loved) killed him!!!! But also HIS DAUGHTERS??? AND HE HAD TO WATCH IT!!!? HELP PLEASE THIS IS NOT RIGHT AND YOU KNOW IT
But that doesn’t mean….
Ganging up on Oz while he’s down on his knees after having to rewatch his own trauma.
While he’s in a very emotional and vulnerable state of mind. He’s HUMAN too just like us.
ATTACKING HIM. (OSCAR IS IN THERE TOO, I REPEAT THAT’S OSCAR’S BODY THAT’S BEING HURT RIGHT NOW)
Cornering him, telling him it was a mistake they met, and make him feel even much more guilt than he already usually does.
His worst fears are happening right in fucking front of him. That he locks himself deep within Oscar’s mind away from them.
And the worst part is that this 14 year old boy has to take the brunt of it now, looking at you Qrow…
Codywan post battle kisses. They just need to feel each other breath.
I’ve seen so many people talk about the Ace Ops and Qrow and the new outfits and the bees but can we talk about Rubys semblence? I know someone made a comment on it some time ago so we already knew that it is not just speed but what else could it be?
Teleportation?
Transformation?
Someone help my brain is going to fast for me to catch up. What do the rose petals actually mean?
Lets theorize please. If you got any theories on that already please send them to me I wanna seeee.
Being active on this Hellsite once in a blue moon is so fun because what do you mean I can boop people with cat paws again??
(and get spammed in return)
One of my fav Wei Ying things is the fact that he hears the murmur of resentful energy and ghosts
And for sure he hears screaming, wailing, and all sorts of bad stuff - but what if, as the ghosts realize he can hear them (in the Burial Mounds timeline), they begin telling him various other things, such as:
"Wei Wuxian...... eat something....."
"Wei Wuxian....... too much wine......"
"Wei Wuxian........ go to sleep....."
"Wei Wuxian..... Hanguang-Jun wants to kiss you....."
this is just for me to look at silly little things ...and maybe say some nonesense
