Faylen: For the first five years of my life, I thought my name was The Accident.
Torvah: It was a playful joke!
Faylen: You wrote it on my birthday cake!

I love characters who are very smart in certain ways but also have the most colossal blind spots known to man, it’s such a fun combo to me

every time i relisten to the festival of lights it strikes me how beloved maeri is. everywhere she goes everyone is bowing and trying to gain her favor, at the festival in the last episode the estrans are uproarious and clamoring for a glimpse of her
yet throughout the entire arc we are told repeatedly that the citizens doubt her, that they mistrust her, that they believe she isnt who she says she is. and its entirely possible that the people who think these things would put on airs when the goddess is near, or just that we never encounter them by coincidence, but i find it more likely that this is intentional to some degree
the only people who talk about unrest among the people are the attendants and maeri herself, all of whom received that information from cecilia and cordelia. this is just another facet of torvahs plot - to make the guardians suspicious and to make maeri doubt herself. she knows that something isnt right, and her attendants are telling her that other people have noticed, which just makes her more self conscious and anxious
this may have worked if the guardians had been more attached to the goddess than to maeri, but instead it just led to them falling in love with her for who she is rather than who shes not

Torvah’s symbol is the broken tower and it’s been mentioned that all the other gods have symbols. I wonder what Falen’s symbol is? Or what Maeris will be.
My idea for it would be some type of weed-like flower. Specifically a dandelion cuz like they’re known for being able to grow anywhere. And during her speech as she named herself she said (paraphrasing) “to be mortal is to survive” and so I think that something like that would be fitting.

I feel like if the party in Dames and Dragons had lost the battle where Maeri named herself “The Survivor,” the whole series could have slid into a very cool YA Dystopia kind of tone. Like.
The worst happens. They don’t hold Torvah back for long enough, he doesn’t stop to monologue, and he names Maeri for his own ends. He names her for what he needs, and he names her in a way that will distance her as far as possible from the beast gods, from the forces of nature, from Kai, from her mother’s power.
He names her “The Strategist,” because he cannot conceive of a better opposite for the wild and chaotic power of nature. He names her “The Strategist,” because Torvah alone cannot outthink every god and every mortal and every force in the world.
He names her “The Strategist,” and in doing so gives her the power she needs to resist him. He binds her with the same language he used to bind Falen, But now Maeri’s entire being is devoted to thinking. Thinking of ways in. Thinking of ways out. Thinking of ways around.
And the party is suddenly without their goddess. They have failed as guardians. They have failed in their purpose. Torvah has enough power to sweep the continent, stealing Slake’s home away like he did with Corbin and Fran and Laika’s. Perhaps Fran and Falen still end up lost in the void, and take the hope of breaking Maeri’s binding with them.
The ensuing parade of guest characters goes a little less like a series of divine fetch quests, and more like the gathering of a ragtag group of allies to fight against overwhelming odds. The guardians have lost the nations and the armies they had rallied, and must be much more covert, because Torvah has supplies and allies and spies around every corner.
I don’t know what the main party would do from there, but I do know that Maeri, perhaps without the aid of her absent friends, must eventually figure out that nature has a warfare all its own. She would have to take back her power as a nature goddess within the bounds of her new purpose: After all, what is the ongoing evolution of life, if not strategy?

Fantroll Arty has all these complicated feelings toward Torvah and FL Arty is just like :) I don’t see why you’re sad. What’s the issue.
Timothy like ohhh you will be hated and discriminated against I have condemned you to suffer what have I - what are you doing [concerned as his creation begins rummaging through its own insides while humming cheerfully]

Whatever Kai and Torvah have going on fascinates and horrifies me. I want to put them in a jar and shake them until their secrets fall out.

Corbin: That’s right! It’s a blast from your past, with that sass and lovely ass.
Corbin: [Strikes a pose.] Am I… Man enough for you?
Torvah: Why can’t you take this seriously!?
Corbin: Because that’s what you want, and I’m not gonna give it to you.

I’ve been listening to Dames and Dragons. So I guess I lied when I said that Dissonant Whispers is the only D&D podcast that matters...
Anyway, I hope my rendition of Torvah isn’t too far off...

Waitaminute. Ainsley and the Gap introduced Postminger to 'how cool and hot' Torvah is and that led to the Postmingers withdrawing their support of the Maddrean Queenship?? Corbin and Fran were right about needing to kill Ainsley and the Gap! Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
LOOOL much to think about 🤔
I think I had planned that Postminger's family was already pro-Torvah (Antone doesn't have a lot of sway in their family anyway) but this is really fucking funny so feel free to headcanon that
