do y'all ever think about how Bev saved the Green Teens from being ritualistically sacrificed, received a very middling letter from his father about his Junior Green Knight graduation that said his efforts were "extremely satisfactory" or some shit like that, then spent like. idk a few weeks on the way to Galaderon, took down a drug boss in Ezry, almost got fucking killed by a literal god with Tonathan after finding out that his hero betrayed their shared faith, finally made it home with two shattered legs, saw his parents again for the first time in like a month—a long fucking time for a fifteen-year-old boy—then his dad was IMMEDIATELY cursed with blindness and framed for murder, Bev V fought in Bev IV's place in a trial by combat, nearly died AGAIN, uncovered the level of corruption in the Chosen, fought a fucking dragon, broke his father out of prison, watched his other childhood hero get beheaded in front of him, escaped the castle, saw his home destroyed, teleported his dad and the other Green Knights and Green Teens to the faewild with a fucking magical kiss with his boyfriend that he somehow had time to get, went on another quest to Frostwind, was almost killed again in a near Total-Party-Kill at Smuggler's Bounty, fought and took down a fucking dragon after seeing it down all of his friends, went to the faewild and learned that 25 years had passed, had to come to grips with the fact that he, Derlin, and Cran would no longer be able to share the same bond, kissed one boy in the faewild, watched Hardwon die (for real), fought a queen with mind powers who fucking tortured him over the kiss with the rando faewild boy, found out his father had gone mostly insane and still didn't fucking have enough faith in him to trust his son's abilities so he made a fucking deal with Akarot through that same queen on his fucking 16TH BIRTHDAY, then had to watch Hardwon die (again), dive into Shadowfell, watch Hardwon die a-fucking-gain and come back as a vampire, literally fucking fight Hardwon, take down the Montgomerys, watch Deadshot die, watch Jvelin die, then went and fought a Kraken, took down Galad (again), saw Hardwon reincarnated as a half-elf, reunited with Erlin and immediately confessed about the kiss (as he should have), got to speak with Martha for like 5 minutes, found a book from Bev IV that instructed him on how to take him down, then had to leave immediately to go to Gladehome to fight in a wizard tournament where he was nearly killed by yet another fucking dragon
AND SOMEWHERE IN ALL OF THIS HE GOT BALNOR (love u Balnor I didn't forget you I just didn't know where to fit you in. you keep enjoying that Bud Heavy; it's a walking day)
I'm only on episode 72, and I am SO scared to find out what the next 28 episodes hold for this boy

Reborn:
Truly what can one say about Reborn?
It begins, beautifully, with Hardwon getting a real chance to meet Lydia and explain to her what she means to him as a person, even without her direct influence on his life.
We then get the reincarnation. Almost rolling a gnome. Seeing melora again, getting tattooed. "I've been a half elf ever since I met you." The hammer taking hardwon back. The wrestling match. The fact that the audio was nearly lost to the ages, but Emily was able to recover it with a years-old forum post.
Entering Hill Home. Bev stopping to buy a comic about a cleric (Emily's cleric) to give to Erlin. Finding out that Erllin and Egwene have been off on their own adventures with Red and Gunther.
Bev’s devastating truth. Erlin’s natural, yet painful, reaction. Egwene reassuring Bev. Balnor’s reaction, making sure Bev knew this happens to people, and that things can still work out.
Moonshine meeting Lucanus. “Hey mom and dad!” Hardwon tackling Denny. Denny getting polymorphed into a boot because he’s just that weak. The conversation with Meemaw. The actual introduction to Lucanus. “A man who never thought he’d have a child, holding his child.”
Talking to Martha Toegold. The fact that she knows already what happened to Bev IV. Telling Bev about the tree in the back. “A Bestiary of Devils and Archdevils by the paladin Beverly Toegold I”. “Your father has given you an instruction manual on how to beat him”.
Every single goddamn thing in between. Goddamn.
Heart of the World:
The Boobs take the Stormborn to the Court of Gods. They write letters to their loved ones and put them in the contingency cubby.
After a bit of a difficult trek, they happen upon a wall where they can hear the wishes and prayers of the citizens of Bahumia. They offer a “We are here for you” in return, and are rejuvenated by the reaction to their presence.
Once they get close, they call their berserkers. Moonshine turns them into elephants, then summons pixies to make the elephants fly. The Titans of Bahumia fly into battle Thiala on elephants. (Murph is given the chance to leave Emily over any of that bullshit if he so pleases).
The battle with Thiala begins. She brings back Galad. Hardwon does 297 freaking damage in the first turn. 1,082 total by the end of the fight. Moonshine uses cantrips where they count. Bev takes on his own fungal form, and eventually casts a bonus action revivify on Hardwon. Balnor dukes it out with some angels.
They see what the mind of Thiala wants them to experience. I cannot do the flashbacks as much justice as @misslevel , so here are those comments on them from a previous round.
Thiala takes a second form. Uses Alanis and Ulfgar to harness their energy and make things worse. Tries to actually destroy Melora’s heart, holding the world together. Moonshine uses Handy Andy to steal Erlin, he’s freed from the gem, and able to help heal everyone. Bev, Balnor, and Hardwon keep swinging.
Nearing the end and fearing things will get so much worse (Balnor and Hardwon keep going down), Moonshine casts Shapechange and turns into a Gold Dragon. She eats Thiala.
The Titans of Bahumia return their divine heart fragments to Melora, as they were just borrowing it. They give Pelor his heart back, resurrecting him. They save the last one for the Dusk Mother, and give her rule over the one hells, renaming it The Ruby Dawn.
Old Alanis, the traveler, returns, and asks Balnor if he’s ready. He says tearful goodbyes and returns to his timeline, ready to destroy the hounds and save his village. “It’s okay, Balnor. I knew like all the most powerful things in this world, I was only borrowing you.”
We move forward in time. They start finishing off Akarot. Set up the ritual to destroy the Hellfire Crown. Hardwon visits his father in Kord’s Great Hall. Bev and Erlin get to be kids.
A year later, they return to Moonstone for the Jamboreen.
Moonshine reacquaints herself with the dragon she hatched and invites him to live with her at the Crick. Hardwon asks for the same offer, and it is given quickly. They read Balnor’s letter by the fire. Our story then ends where it began, in The Hungry Trout Tavern.

Crown of Dreams:
The Duck Team races back to the Crick to track down the missing members of the Old Folks’ Circle!
Glen made his escape from the Time Out Tree with assistance from a grenade, which Callie assumed was the one she gifted to Cooter (Glen’s father).
After some investigating at Eloise’s (member of the OFC) stump, they see some suspicious tracks that lead them to Cooter’s stump at the edge of town.
In Cooter’s stump Frogson and Holmes find Glen’s old room, and his various journals. He had wanted to be a ranger captain by 50 and Peepaw of the crick by 100. [Fool.] He had books on Moonshine and Marabelle, and he idolized them. He had a note from Meemaw saying “we will not rain arrows down from our towers. we will always shine a light.” in response to him suggesting they go to war. They also discovered letters to Eloise and determined that she walked from her stump and was a co-conspirator.
The Duck Team was then met outside by Cooter, apologizing. He sent them into a trap, where Glen was waiting with the trapped Old Folks, the Evil Old Folks, and Meemaw (also trapped). After attempts that incapacitated most of the Duck Team, Glen attempted to wrench Ultrus from the helm while Calder was unconscious. Calder resisted.
Sol fell unconscious, and rolled a nat 1 on a death save (very on brand for caldwell). Callie got polymorphed into a nannerfly. Seeing this through a vision in his helm, Calder offered his body to Ultrus in exchange for the giant saving Callie and Sol. Calder never just wanted to be useful.
After slamming Glen against a wall, Ultrus caused the corrupt Old Folks to flee, and he, Callie, and Sol stood at an impasse. Calder apologized to his friends and Ultrus took him away, into the woods.
Glen then revealed that the only being that might be able to help with their problem of the trapped Old Folks was Mawmaw, but that was impossible, as he had sent his mind-controlled father to kill her.
But Cooter, ever the berry boy, used a goodberry to save Mawmaw, resisting the geas spell, causing him to go unconscious. Callie and Sol helped revive him, and both he and Mawmaw were safe.
[I do apologize for the excessive detail there, a lot happens and I have listened to that one very recently, so it’s on top of my mind.]
The Nannerfly Effect:
After being kidnapped by the Dragon Turtle, the Boobs arrive at the Magnificent Mansion of The Sea Crone Alanis.
They enter her chambers and learn that she’s been watching them and their adventures for a while. She reveals that she attempted to defeat Thiala many other times, and has traveled to the past will powerful wish stones when things went wrong. On her 3rd attempt, she found Hardwon, Moonshine, and Beverly and tried to help them save the Crick. She succeeded, but the Chosen attacked and they died.
On her next attempt she observed them, and they died in Smuggler’s Bounty. Without Balnor. She then waited and watched, hoping for the best. After Thiala and Akarot destroyed the world, she found a secret halfling village in the Feywild. There she met Balnor, but he liked his life and elected to stay where he was.
Then his village was attacked. He wasn’t home, everyone else was killed, and he started training. When Alanis returned, he accepted her offer, and she wiped his memory and put him in a card. He was the missing piece.
Balnor is sad upon learning his past. He goes for a walk, and the rest of the Boobs have a quiet evening with their new book, Ulfgar Goes Punch.
The next day, they head to Alanis’ lab and offload some of their cursed items and get some cool new items.
They then get a message from Bev’s dad, who says that the Chosen are attacking the Summer Court. Alanis teleports the Boobs there, and they arrive into a large-scale battle of Chosen knights. They make quick work of forty Chosen knights
Alanis then jumps into a portal to the material plane to distract Thiala while the Boobs head into the Summer Court to find Bev IV and save the queen.
