I have a really big question.If Gramorr was imprissoned in the castle after he ruled over Ephidia,how did he attack Xeris?There is only one year difference between Talia and Iris.Iris was a baby when the whole Ephidia thing happened and Talia was already 6 or 7 when Xeris was invaded.So there was a 5-6 years break between,when he was supposely trapped inside the castle.And in the attack of Xeris we actually see Gramorr and Banes in there.How did this happen?
"Hey kid, forget about your dead brother, want to become an evil overlord or some shit?"
13year-old Praxina:[gets her shanilla]
13year-old Praxina,crying,seeing her hair falling off:Oh shit,I have cancer!I'm too young to die!I don't wanna die!
Mephisto,confused too:Hang on,Prax,I'll get help!
Five minutes later,5 ambulances,3 medical helicopters and one mortuary car arrive at their house
Just imagine Banes as a cub,playing with little Mephisto and Praxina.Like,it breaks my heart....🥺
