#Also I didn't really see the point of the whole mushroom thing besides a cure for the dragon queen that would take her out of the picture

So now we know that Aaravos and Leola were basically giants but in flashbacks Aaravos was shown to be the size of normal elves and Leola also plays with a kid that seemed to be regular sized. I am very glad that they introduced shrinking magic to us prior to this reveal because now it can't be seen as a continuity error by me, there has been a perfectly reasonable explanation for this phenomenon throughout half the season so no worries this wasn't a mistake by the creators.
