After knowing the Skeksis split the clans, that moment between Brea, Rian, Deet, Gurjin/Kaia, + Kylan seems so much more impactful because 5 different clans probably hadn't come together like that in hundreds of trine. I feel like Sifa ended up with the least representation in the show + I hope they bring some characters to the table in s2.

What I really want to know, especially now I'm reading the sequel comics, is how the Gelfling 're-emerged', as the wiki page describes it. Basically, how did the Gelfling repopulate Thra?

There would have been other communities of survivors hidden far from the Castle. That, or they set up a foreign exchange program with the titular characters from Elfquest.

I like to think that at the end of the movie, when the urSkeks gave the light of the crystal back to the remaining gelfling, that the absorbed souls of the gelflings were returned back to Thra and the species came back over time, because they were absorbed into the crystal. I also like to think that more than just Jen and Kira survived the Garthim wars, maybe 100 at most, but more than those two, due to statistics and pure hope and because it’s depressing if only two lived and the souls of the others weren’t returned back to the planets

Honestly, if "Age of Resistance" is a prequel, we already know the gelflings will eventuay fail and all die at the end anyways. And i find that deppressing in foresight.

@@vladcrow4225 I'm a new convert to the dark crystal mythos (gave the show a watch and got SUPER into it, such a refreshing show, watched the 1980s dark crystal movie for the first time just yesterday!) so forgive any ignorance and newbishness on my part but it does seem to me really unlikely as well that every gelfling got wiped out. In this vid it is said gelflings colonized far and wide, even with the crystal bats and those beetle soldier thingies, I just can't see how they could have hunted down EVERY gelfling save 2 on the whole of Thra. Considering how kira survived (being hidden in a tree), there's room for other stragglers, besides the sifan or dousan, the grottan who live underground should be especially hard for the skeksis to completely eradicate. I'm willing to believe the vaprans and stonewood clans are 100% gone since they were closest to the skeksis center of power but all the other clans have decent survival odds. Also the mystics didn't know about Kira, so they clearly ain't omniscient and even the narrator of the 1980s film says ONE gelfling survived but we then have 2, so that isn't 100% accurate information either. Overall I just don't see the proof the gelfling have been completely wiped out, the only sources saying that (to my knowledge) were proven to be wrong.

This would be great. On a side note... I'm going to the Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance exhibition at the Museum of The Moving Picture this December with family and I noticed already that some people who had been there were finding information not provided elsewhere. For example, the little fuzzball with a beak inside SkekTek's lab has a name! ^_^ And the exhibition DOES have the Gruenaks on display, so maybe there will be something more to learn. If there is, I will find a way to let people know! :)

Good request. I'm 90% sure that whatever Gruenaks were left in AoR were rounded up and butchered up to combine with the bodies of captured arathim... until they were wiped out leaving a select number of Garthim soldiers. I assumed whatever Arathim were left behind were overpowered and killed off by the much stronger and bigger Garthim.

Is anyone else who saw the Original movie steady tryna figure out who Jen & Kira's parents are out of all the Gelfling characters in the new Netflix series? I'm convinced Rian is 100% Jen's father but I cannot figure out if Deet or Brea ends up being his mother. Poor Deet is burdened with the Darkening so the last episode of the season kinda made me lean toward counting her out but we never know... Kira's parents, at least 1 of them is obviously another Vapran, due to her hair & skin. I hope eventually in one of the next seasons(fingers crossed) we get somewhat of a clue to who become the parents of the last two members of the Gelfling race.

4:48 “As we get ready to embark on season 2” Yeah, about that…

So the Ghelflings were unwilling the reson for their suffering? Damn that's deep.

You should make video on love life and relationships Gelflings have with each other.

We can’t blame Gyr too much for his sad Ursecks song, as it only reminded the “dark one” that first sang it of his grief and pain. It was Raunip who continued to taunt the dark one at the last moment when the Urseck tried to focus and cast his negative emotions aside, so that as the light from the crystal pierced the Ursecks, the dark one’s rage and grief was renewed and created the unbalance. Raunip carried guilt over that for a long while, before trying to make up for the harm he did by leading the miners to safety at a great lava field, at a great personal loss.

0:59 Where did you read that the Vapra clan was already in existence during the first age (before the UrSkeks arrived)?
