#don't worry about all the candles close to flammable things

Some updates to Odette's home.

But what if the architect had actually been worried about the ritual for longer? Because elves have been doing it dangerously close to the tents (and because that one elf can't have been the first one to do it in 2 years, c'mon). Even though nothing has ever happened. But multiple humans in camp are on her side and don't know if it's worth to risk it any longer, despite being thoroughly taught about the importance of the ritual (as they should have been, maybe even before building flammable tents???). Then one night, a candle gets mysteriously snuffed out or something similar and the elves obviously seek the culprit among the humans. And then from this point a whole thing ensues and maybe in the end after some realizations, the architect and an elf have the idea of building a special place for the ritual together through it.

Idk maybe this is just a dumb idea but somehow I really didn't like how it played out in the season. Why didn't the architect know of that ritual and did the sunfire elf not know of the no open fire rule?

Personally also not a fan that she was the sole receiver of blame, at least to that extreme extent. She had every reason to be worried about that fire in a flammable tent city after all. She also overreacted immensely, like a lunatic, no doubt. Especially because as long as someone was there to watch, why not get this settled in peace with Janai there instead of being stupid and acting without thinking? But also the sunfire elf did burn her hands, most likely causing damage that will impact her ability to work like she did before.

Or at least make the architect be well aware of the ritual and it being explicitly allowed beforehand and let her be a full on intolerant bigot if she has to take all the blame.

Weh.
