My Theory Is That Aaravos Gave Humans Dark Magic Because He Saw What They Could Do With Primal Magic,

My theory is that Aaravos gave humans dark magic because he saw what they could do with primal magic, and decided to get rid of the obstacle. I figure he created the idea that “humans can’t do primal magic” himself so he could better control them.

"Callum is the first human in recorded history to use primal magic without a conduit."

Can we just talk about this real quick?

Before Callum, all of this was thought to be impossible. Humans just couldn't do magic without the use of a primal stone or, in the case of dark magic, a sacrifice. The Earth is round, the grass is green, and humans aren't capable of this☝️

And remember Callum has a photographic memory. Some of the spells above he learned earlier in the same episode or even on the spot.

We're so used to it at this point but it's not normal.

Not to mention not only did he successfully perform his first dark magic spell, he walked away corruption free and still more powerful.

Shit if I was Aaravos I'd want him on my side, too.

Fucking hell

Before ao3 I used to use fanfiction.net, and switching to ao3 was the best decision I ever made.

Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don’t have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.

Love that our main characters now have the prison of Aaravos, the key of Aaravos, and a person who Aaravos has demonstrated he can control and puppeteer. Love that the main gang has collected all of those things into one place. Love that for them. I can’t possibly imagine how this might end very very badly for them at all
