If I had to guess, I think Callum will immediately fly for Katolis in season 7, but if he is there for Runaan's fuller debrief...

Rayla: So... when I said Ethari was waiting for you, what I meant was, he thinks you're dead and has for the past two years.

Runaan: *pulling on literally the first shirt he can find and scrambling east toward the Silvergrove*

Rayla: ...And I'm Ghosted, and if you try to go home you may be too.

Runaan: *stares at her in horror*

Rayla: But we're not alone! We have Callum! He saved you! He's a ~mage~

(Runaan has not gotten the memo on humans and magic. Callum is also dressed exactly like Viren, and, to Runaan's eyes, looks just like the man who tortured and imprisoned him. Runaan is one wrong move away from snapping)

Callum: Hi, we've met. ...When you broke into our castle... to kill my family...

Runaan:

Callum: Also I pawned your husband's wedding ring and accidentally killed your dog. Is this a bad time to tell you I'm dating your daughter?

Runaan (holding it together only through years of honed self-control): *turns stiffly and walks into the trees. Moments later a flock of birds fly out, disturbed by a completely unrelated scream that rings through the woods*

Wait, so Runaan didn't age in the coin, right? 'Cause if he didn't that means that now he's like two years younger than Ethari when he was formerly almost 4 months older than him. Oh, he's never going to live that down.

So, Runaan has been gone for like two weeks (?) and, in that short time, his daughter fell in love and started dating a human prince. Runaan might not be scared of death, but I bet this must be his nightmare.

eternal imprisonment in a coin is suddenly looking really good

[its-kapi-wara]

Runaan: "It's just not faaaair 😔"

[mixedup-sideblog]

Ok don’t get me wrong I loved S5 but my fucking GOD - AM I A JOKE TO YOU TDP?!? - HE’S STILL IN THAT GODAMN FUCKING COIN…

Opeli: High Mage, we arrested the assassin behind King Harrows death. We found him wandering around the castle eating jelly tarts.

Callum: Release my father-in-law.

Opeli:

[artbyamara]

Ethari, come do your husband’s hair 😅

[that-disabled-princess]

Pasta art of Runaan. Pasta-naan, if you will.

[raayllum]

Please, Callum. This is about who I am. 

[ask-runaan-anything]

Perhaps Rayla will pull and Ezran with your bowblade: turn it into something else. Repurpose it. Who knows.

She'll pull a what now? Has the little king done something to my bowblade?

[ruthariandbluecookies]

Tired Elder/Teacher: *squeezes a toy* This is a "stress toy". Anytime you feel the urge to cause chaos, just squeeze *hands to Lain*

Lain: *squeezes until it pops*

Runaan: *coughs to hide his amusement and remain the model student*

Ethari: *wheezes*

Tiadrin: *Unabashedly cackles*

Tired Elder/Teacher: *resigned*

[0multifandomweirdo0]

I think we need a moment with Rayla and Runaan as in that one scene from Hazbin Hotel with 'More Than Anything'

It would cure daddy issues

[arcadianmoonshadowjedi]

Adding one more 😭💔

THE WAY THESE SCENES HAD ME SOBBING MY EYES OUT

I’m still crying right now

I cried even harder going back to take these screenshots

And I’m starting to cry even more again editing this post and looking at these photos

[rainwalker-dragonblade29]

OUR BABIES ARE NOT FINE

😭😭😭😭

WHAT THE ACTUAL—

RUNAAN WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!!!!!!

(Please forgive the poor quality of my screen shots, I was too busy screaming the moment I saw it and ran to a friend to squeal some more)

[zuppizup]

Omg what if Runaan's flower was left in the pond all this time and suddenly starts floating again. And what if the shadowpaw returns to the Silvergrove around the same time. Oh how amazing that would all be. Ethari would lose it and wonder what is going on and how. He'd probably think he was having a mental break. This just came to my mind and I had to say something about it

Yeah, Ethari is in for an emotional season 7, that's for sure.

We have end credit art that heavily implies Runaan's flower is once again on the surface, something I assume Ethari is going to notice.

How he's going to go about tracking Runaan down, I'm interested to find out. It would probably be easy enough to send word from the Moon Nexus to the Silvergrove, but I assume they're not just going to leave Runaan there and deal with the plot that way. After all this time getting Rayla and Runaan back together, I can't see them suddenly splitting up. Similarly, Rayla and Callum have finally moved beyond the awkward part of their relationship and are fully embracing being together, so I can't really see them splitting up so soon either. Especially considering the potential attack on Katolis (potential from their limited perspective), I assume Rayla is going to want to go with Callum to find out what exactly happened. (They're obviously going to both be incredibly worried about Ezran.)

Perhaps Rayla, Callum and Runaan will set out for Katolis together, sending word to Ethari that this is where they are going?

(I'm also super curious about Rayla's Ghosting. Has Ethari reversed the spell? Word of God says that not only is that difficult, Rayla is still in the Silvergrove bad books for abandoning her mission. Real sticklers for the rules, it seems).

At least Ethari will have a mount to take him out looking for his husband though, right? Coz I gotta assume that's why the shadowpaw has been sent home.

The poor muderfloof needs to rest and retire too.
