Spoiler puzzle for the 6x02 episode title - three words, each correlating to the picture. We also know the S6 episode titles tell a story of their own with "Startouched" being the title of 6x01.

Here are some potential avenues for each one!

First picture options: heart, light, together, reunion, reconciliation

Second picture options: war, battle, attack, divide

Third picture: mushroom, healing, a collection of mushrooms is also called a cluster or troop

Light Divides and Heals maybe? Love Wounds Healing? Hearts, Wars, Healing?

the good news is that we will be getting the actual title tomorrow

Considering we don't see the shadowpaw in the images of Callum and Rayla closer to the Star Scraper, I really hope it's just having a nice relaxing break some place warm and Callum’s "mount curse" doesn't get it taken out. 😬

OKAY now that we have images from someone let's check this shit out:

Wide assumption seems to be that this takes place in "the heavens" because of the background, which is not unlikely. We are only seeing the sky reflected, however, so... "the stars looked down upon a perfect mirror and saw their own divine reflections," amirite? Aaravos crying also closely ties this scene to Ripples, the other time we have had Aaravos's tears specifically called out.

Also, we see that Aaravos's eye diamond markings appear to be unique to him, or at least not a consistent feature of Startouch elves—the Merciful One instead has a single mark in the center of their brow, which hmmmmMMMMM

ANYWAY those things aside, what I really wanted to point out here is that this is already fallen Aaravos. We can see the dark pupils of his eyes behind his tears, and his eyes do not glow. His star freckles are significantly dimmer than those on the Merciful One, and he's also rendered as less glow-y in that the outlines of his hair and eyebrows are gray (darker than the hair color) while on the Merciful One they are white (lighter than the hair color). We can also juuuuust barely see the black tip of his chest mark.

We're also, on the other side of that, seeing that the Merciful One is not fallen. Which may mean Aaravos groups them with the arrogant stars as his enemies, but we'll see. We still don't really have any idea what "fallen" entails.

I'm not going to comment on the scene's content, because I haven't seen any actual dialogue transcriptions, only the vague description from the initial discord > twitter > tumblr summary. This is a place where exact wording really matters, not even to mention tone. Though if the line is literally "We are now connected by love, or something" I will laugh my ass off.

So basically I'm thinking this scene coincides with the events described in Ripples, whether those are Aaravos's fall and expulsion or (my personal opinion) the punishment of Leola.

Anyway time to talk about the 6x03 poem:

As many others have speculated judging by the map, Captain Skall made her way to Hook named after her, and then "as east she sailed into waters so deadly and cold" in the Frozen Shards, her ship eventually being stuck and meeting her doom there.

With that out of the way, I want to talk about other pieces of info, why this might be the poem for 6x03 specifically, and where I think Skall may fit timeline wise:

"From the isles without name" makes me think of the Independent Isles in between Evenere and Katolis.

"sailing north, she called herself free" makes me feel feral with Callum (and Rayla) doing the same in hopes of freeing Callum from Aaravos' grasp by destroying the prison

"Through forests and flowers, past the uneven towers" clearly symbolizes Katolis, indicating that Skall lived once most of the human kingdoms had been established, and thereby post-Exile/Exodus.

"Skall hungered for glory, she wanted a story / they’d tell it long after she died". Routinely we see a desire for glory / worthiness / power described as hunger ("Hungry for knowledge and power" / "But that small taste left some humans hungry—starved, even—for a better path. An easier path. And thus Elarion became the birthplace of a new form of magic, a shortcut to primal power: dark magic"). This also comes into seeking a legacy.

"So with winter wind’s blowing / she sailed north, forgoing / a man who’d have made her his bride". This is where we see the poem take a more negative slant in a few ways. The first is winter, wind, and north, setting up a future unfortunate turn of events. This is also the first mention of Skall having something else in her life other than adventure and something she had to subsequently abandon. While the end of the poem is much more on her side of feelings, "forgoing" does mean "renouncing; sacrificing or giving up" something that is more positive.

"Alone in the cold, yet ever so bold" again adds to the more negative feeling the poem is building, as boldness is in the contrast with "alone in the cold" that's overall negative and maintaining a bit more of an upkeep. Likewise, we see the return of the wind with an even more negative connotation in wailing in the following stanza: "And oh, winter wailed / as east she sailed / into waters so deadly and cold". We see the return of cold but also the change into things being 'deadly' (although there were still hints of danger earlier, as 'bold' indicates).

"Then came the ice, and trapped in its vise" The cold finally catches up to her, and we see ice return as a form of entrapment (2x06, 3x08, 3x09, 5x04, 5x06, 5x08). Most interestingly, "vise" is a tool with closable jaws for clamping things. Maybe the ice is magical, or the jaw of a great (the dragon we've seen in the trailer) creature?

"And while she found peace / she wished that, at least / she’d told him she loved him, always". While the poem ends on a somewhat bittersweet end (at death but at peace), we do see that Skall died with a final regret to the man she could've wed but left instead.

Or you could say, a last wish.

Either way, the poem paints a rather grim journey: going North didn't hold the same freedom and achievements that Skall hoped for, and instead led to entrapment, separation, and death.

That said: there's a few Rayllum-y things I think we can glean from this poem, for starters:

1) The episode will likely have a strong focus on Callum and Rayla sailing to and/or through the Frozen Sea on whatever ship they're planning to use to get there. This leaves 6x02 "Love, War, and Mushrooms" more open to either explore other plot lines or another pit stop in their journey (like say, the Silvergrove)

2) The poem itself has pretty clear Rayllum parallels, specifically in TDP's continual gender subversion of the women who puts other things above her romantic relationship, even if it's likewise seen as a sacrifice. Rayla left Callum in order to protect him/the world from Viren, even if that meant damaging their relationship, and Skall puts her desire for glory and adventure over presumably a more settled married life at home. (Excuse me while I scream over "forgoing a man who'd have made her his bride.")

3) The poem likewise has some parallels to Rayla's "Dear Callum" letter specifically. There are wishes expressed of the leaving party, a desire to have made feelings more plain that Callum reiterates in 5x04 when they think they're about to die ("I hope you know—" "I know"), and most notably, a parallel to the always mention:

she wished that, at least she’d told him she loved him, always.

But, if it does—if you feel that soft aching—know that that piece of your heart isn’t missing. It’s not missing at all, Callum: I’m carrying it with me! Always. I love you. I love you so much.

4) All this bodes quite well for 6x03 being an episode with a big Rayllum moment in it — perhaps even their Big "You Finally Came Back" Talk — especially since there's not much else to (presumably) happen on a ship if they're just travelling somewhere (and not being pursued this time).

Episode Speculation (a summary / misc thoughts)

Callum and Rayla travelling to the Frozen Sea

Big Talk happens

+ potential love confession / reaffirmation?

They reach the other end of the Frozen Sea

Maybe fight the big dragon from the video game teaser we see with Rayla (like Skall, she has literal hooks = blades) whose guarding or in their way to the Starscraper? Could account for the jaws and maybe the ice

One of them is worried and/or has a moment of thinking the other person is hurt/injured bc of said dragon fight?

Maybe some Aaravos backstory in his lost love (although like I said, I don't think it's Skall exactly — I still think the likeliest names are Elara-adjacent or Kalik)

Episode Title Speculation (in about this order):

The Frozen Sea

By River and Sea

Always (this would be my personal favourite and i would never stop screaming)

You think Rayla’s going to be the one who puts the blindfold on Callum? 🥺

Callum reassuring her it's going to be okay and not to worry, even as his voice cracks just a little. Her hands trembling noticeably as she ties the material over his eyes, fingers running through his hair for a moment.

Maybe even pressing her forehead against his...?
