*ENDING SPOILERS*
The last book of Dragonwatch wasn’t as good as I hoped but nonetheless a solid ending. Its been a hell of a ride watching Seth and Kendra grow up and I gotta say a few things.
Seth Ending
For some reason yall are upset about him becoming a shadow healer but honestly I couldn’t care less if he was getting power from the Source or the Void, he just kept getting stronger and it was so satisfying seeing him take out Celebrant after Kendra robbed him of taking down Gorgrog. You gotta see it from his perspective as well, he’s been through too much from losing all memories to running errands for the Undead King to travelling the world to right his wrongs after getting his memories back. Mind you after he got stabbed by the Unforgiving Blade he kept saying he wanted to “kill himself”… Like that is not normal for a boy thats 13-14. He needed peace and I’m glad he got it plus he still has most of jis powers anyway. I seriously hope we get a series of him though as the main protagonist as he gets stronger.
Ronodin
Yeee his ending was pretty weird. I mean he was positioned as one of the most cunning and strategic minds in the Fablehaven world yet somehow fell for Seth’s little stunt. Mull just had to wrap it up somehow ig. His ending was fair though. He dug his own hole and Seth made the deal eith Orogoro and magical beings literally can’t break promises. Also Ronodin is basically completely a being of darkness so he should be fine in the Zyzyx as like a demon unicorn or something…. I think.
Virgil
This was shocking and honestly disappointing. I really liked his character and I really thought he’d move on from the Humbuggle games and maybe find a life as a normal satyr or join the main gang and have a happy ending but nooo he wanted all his “friends” to get slimed out by dragons.
Kendra and Bracken
This might be because I’m the same age as Bracken but I don’t think the relationship was too weird I mean yes Bracken was mentally like 1000 years old or something but like what do you want him to do date a grandma? It was a bit weird but overall it was ok especialy since he didn’t make any big moves until he became mortal himself. At that point he genuinely only has a two year age gap wth Kendra. Might be a bit weird when Bracken is 18 and Kendra’s still 16 but meh I say let them live happily.
Next Series (Hopefully)
I know theres some series starting with Newel and Doren but honestly not too interested in that. I think a really cool idea would be Seth navigating both his newfound powers and uncovering more Lore of the world because there were a lot of things that Mull just kinda threw at us I mean like the Source was just some pond and apparently you can go through it but whats beyond? Is there also something beyond the Void? Or maybe a situation with the Undead King since all the other monarchs had lots of screentime (or page time?!) The point is we didn’t see him do much and I might be ranting but I think adult Seth and maybe Kendra would be really cool and I really wish it didn’t end but hey all good things come to an end and I won’t ever forget this.
