After they killed Thordak, there wasn’t this much to finding Raishan. They kinda just went straight to her using a common scrying spell or something along those lines. Another thing is that Scanlan DIED died during the fight, but having him actually die would just make the show’s deaths a bit redundant. Despite these changes, I love how they’ve handled the story telling to make it more interesting

Thank the random name generator that came up with Scanlan Shorthalt 🤣

20:16 Ah the game Critical Role made based around an enemy in campaign 2

Keyleth annoyed me so much at the start of this episode--she said that she knew all along that Raishan was bad, but everyone ignored her... But Keyleth never had *any* other ideas. And she blamed *everything* on Raishan, even when she was clearly wrong. She was a personification of the "thanks, Obama" meme. If the group had done what Keyleth wanted, they never would've gotten the Plate of the Dawnmartyr--the thing that wound up finally defeating Thordak. Meanwhile, Raishan said from the beginning that she had exactly one goal in common with VM: kill Thordak. She never claimed to be good, and the mistake was for everyone (including Keyleth) to trust her for one moment past Thordak's death.

i wanna point out a tiny as hell detail, but at the introductory scene of stilben, there was a pig-nosed i think orc?, cleaning or polishing a blade in the foreground - there was a tear streaming down his face, and it's so curious, like what's the story about that?

Raishan had no impact on the story until the end. VM knew they could use Mythcarver to find the vestiges, so without her they still would go to Marquet, run into Ripley, gone to hell, and all that followed. They already knew Thordak's eggs were hatching, so Raishan's time pressure was extraneous. Even without Raishan, the best course of action was to have the army keep the dragonlings busy while VM fought Thordak, so the battle would turn out the same. Raishan was about as useful as Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Just a fun fact, but; in the actual play, Vex and Keyleth double crossed Reishan right on the heels of defeating Thordak. The deal was Raishan helped them defeat Thordak, and she did, and they let her take Thordak's body to search it for her cure. When Raishan went to collect on her end, Vex looked at Keyleth who nodded and he threw a dagger at her. All of them was also almost dead at this time, if Raishan (or rather Matt) pushed it, they would have all died, instead Raishan took the corpse and ran. They changed a lot in this season in particular, especially around Keyleth, making her more justified. Not a criticism, just a fun fact. I really like the animated series even if things are diverting and changing a lot in areas.
