** Callum and Rayla discuss this, with Rayla promising that working together to reunite Zym with his mother can be the first step to break this cycle between Xadia's creatures and the humans.
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Harrow and Viren managed to kill the Dragon King Avizandum before the start of the story. This is such an incredible feat that one of the most powerful mages in the world, Aaravos, is impressed and wonders how they did it with just the two of them.
