#I do think it’s wild to assume Elias is still in the astral sea

[soath]

My Critical Role conspiracy theory is that near the end of the Calamity Elias Alterra got sick of being an ageless eternal 14 year old swimming the Astral Sea, kissed his father goodbye forever, and went back to Exandria, where he rejoined the fragmented shards of the Gau Drashari and brought them ancient druidic knowledge gleaned from an childhood in golden age Cathmoira and several centuries dream-drowning. He became an archdruid, shepherded the nascent Ashari into their places, had a big happy family, and never stopped grieving the sorrow of what he lost in the first place.

And that’s why Keyleth is a redhead.
