#Soren:...please dont ever leave me

[stuck-in-jelly]

I think its really telling in a way that Soren after Arc 1 really gravitated to Corvus instead of anyone else.

We know Soren isn't really fond of magic (this is something that is present in even the concept art), it doesn't seem to matter if its primal or dark he sees magic as the source of conflict and pain.

A lot of the times he's just generally uncomfortable around magic.

But even after he runs away from his dad and leaves Claudia he's still largely surrounded by magic.

Callum is learning all forms of magic, he took Soren's father's former office and in his pursuit of knowledge has dipped into even the dark magic text left behind.

Ezran can talk to animals including dragons, he does so on a regular biases and has a psychic connection to the prince of dragons himself.

Rayla is a Moonshadow assassin who can make herself disappear with magic, by birthright connected to a primal source of magic and owns a Star Monkey who can summon magically portals.

But Corvus? Corvus likes scavenger hunts and tying knots his hobbies are baking and writing music. He has absolutely no interest in magic and raises his eyebrow when Callum talks about it.

He's, well, normal.

And I think Soren was drawn to that especially after growing up with a dad, sister, and grandpa figure who all practiced a form of magic that involved a lot of torture and death.

Corvus is around his age, likes to work out, is a warrior like him who can train with him, listens to him talk, but most importantly he doesn't care for magic.
