"When Dorian came home and told his mother he changed his name, and she still called him Bronte... that's the reality for a lot of people in the world. When you go home to mom and dad, you go home to who you used to be."

"The mountains and peaks shaped by the loving hands of the All-Hammer. What a world he made…"

Brennan said this story was meant to be a love letter to Matt and it truly feels like it. Here is my little ode to Exandria and its maker.

10 years of Critical Role, 10 years of this story, shaped by many loving hands. What a journey it all is -- and I'm so happy to be a small part of it to this day!

Also Divergence truly destroyed me. The hope, the struggle, the power of the many in the face of evil. The meaning in creation, creativity, and hard work... a a a aa

Crafter of worlds, forger of a new dawn

I don't know if this was at all on Alex and Jasmine's minds when they made these characters, but Fiedra and Crokas' mutual story amounting to "You, as my parental figure, let me down in many ways that cannot be forgotten and in some cases forgiven even if that wasn't your intention, but we still love each other and we're trying and even if our relationship is different now and I'm striking out to find my own way I know you're there if I need you" is such a perfect parallel to The Divergence and the relationship between mortals and gods in this era that I'm not sure which would be more impressive, if it was planned or if it was just pure, poetic coincidence.

I couldn’t help envisioning this

liam and brennan being able to give matt a little look at the world he made. "what a world he made" "you lose track of time sailing through all your creations" "all of your works and deeds have served as prologue to this moment"
