Talk:Curse of the Werefox

After Syr Armont fell in love with an Elvish Archivist,

Is there evidence that Armont fell in love with Elvish Archivist?

This contradicts what's now written in Yenna's page, where it now says that she and Armont were in love. The addition cites this Twitter post as evidence.

As far as I can tell, both cases seem to be based on the art for Defense of the Heart. The context is clear that the person on the right in this art is Syr Armont, whereas the person on the left is... considerably more ambiguous?? Virtually every typically defining feature can be attributed to any Redtooth elf. I feel like attributing that elf to be Elvish Archivist was only because of the way the wind dramatically was blowing the elf's hair up, which makes it look like them. But was there any evidence outside of this?

In contrast, Yenna was given more textual context, since this article explicitly features Armont and Yenna journeying specifically together to find the rose, which we then see in Defense of the Heart. Indeed, I found it initially strange when reading Yenna's article from before this edit that Yenna would be so interested in searching for a way to break the curse while not being involved in the actual breaking with Syr Armont. Stranger yet that Armont would be interested in an unnamed elf. It makes sense to me that Yenna was that elf.

So unless there is other evidence supporting Elvish Archivist as the one Syr Armont fell in love with, I feel like it's safe to swap Elvish Archivist with Yenna here. Apopstrophe (talk) ~06:30, July 28, 2024

I'd agree with swapping the two, but maybe including some ambiguity in the explanation or in Trivia. The cards show multiple roses, multiple werefoxes falling in love, and not a lot of Yenna, but it definitely seems like Wizards intended the Beauty and the Beast allegory to be Armont and Yenna.
