My only solidified theory on what Egbert may have done is that he had some part in harming a dragon or ruining efforts to restore gold dragons. The pieces are not all there. It's a little (a lot?) obvious. But with a little more information it would make sense and be very thematically appropriate.

IF it's the case my main question is then whether saving this gold dragon will be sufficient atonement for the Dragon Dor or if Egbert will spurn the Dragon Dor or not be granted atonement, but it'll be his personal Growth Moment, yadayada. Honestly I find it pretty funny how unconcerned Egbert generally seems with getting atonement and more want to know what is up for the drama and/or hilarity of it, and it's worth noting that while Egbert is very casual about his penance he's decidedly not happy to discuss what he did and remains cagey about it and wary of Shattershield.

#is egbert's refusal to take it seriously canonically a coping mechanism or is it just rule of funny?#is not all humor a form of shielding? 🤔 much to think about #oxventure #gw oxventure #my main theory before all this happened was just that he caused an accident that killed a load of people 🤷#seems pretty egbert to me and he absolutely killed SOMEBODY because Shattershield did that dig at him #to not talk about taking lives #and it's implied to be a Real Big Deal #idk i just wanna know secrets #and now we won't know until at LEAST November 11th
