“The Tale of Vox Machina,” stands out among most TV shows due to its unwavering commitment to quality. The initial two seasons were nothing short of extraordinary, but viewers yearned for something grand in Season 3, and the creators delivered. The third installment of the “Amazon Prime Video series concluded with an exhilarating three-part finale where our heroic group faced off against the formidable Thordak.

Previously, viewers witnessed the heart-wrenching and gruesome demise of Percy. Amazingly, his death left everyone in pieces, particularly fans who continue to yearn for his appearance in the final episode. Despite Vox Machina managing to thwart some of Thordak’s schemes, it’s now crucial for the team to bring this storyline to a close and vanquish the formidable dragon.

Of course, it won’t be easy because the dragon has its army and is ready for any possible attack. However, Vox Machina shouldn’t be taken lightly and can bring the Red Dragon down to its knees.

The Legend Of Vox Machina Season 3 Episodes 10-12 (Finale) Review

In episode 10 of “The Legend of Vox Machina” season 3, things appear grim for our band of heroes. Feeling unheard about her concerns, Keyleth decides to return home in search of guidance from her father. He shares a perilous method to find Raishan, but she needs the Council’s approval. At first, she is turned down, but learning about her mother’s past with Raishan fuels her resolve once more. Keyleth’s strong leadership ultimately convinces the Council, and she embarks on a risky ritual deep underground.

Simultaneously, Vex and Vax are tracking Ripley through Stilben, uncovering signs that she’s been dealing with deadly weapons. Their chase escalates into a risky encounter at the docks, ending with Vex being captured and almost drowned. Fortunately, Vax manages to rescue her, causing them to cut their pursuit short as the ship sets sail. Meanwhile, at home, Pike enlists Kaylie’s aid to revive Scanlan from his coma, hoping it will inspire him to keep living. As Keyleth conducts the ritual, she has a vision of Vex and Vax in distress on Ripley’s vessel. The well-being of the siblings, and potentially all of Exandria, now hangs precariously in the balance.

In Episode 11, Keyleth struggles to master a ritual aimed at locating Raishan. Her father’s advice and Vax’s faith in her enable her to harness the earth’s power, allowing her to pinpoint Raishan’s whereabouts. She sends a mystical signal to Grog and Pike, indicating their next steps. Simultaneously, Vex and Vax are taken captive on Ripley’s ship. They clash with her distorted interpretation of Percy’s heritage before breaking loose and engaging in a fierce battle against the crew, both shackled together. Eventually, Vox Machina, now reunited, traverse magical pathways to a forest shrouded in darkness and an ancient ziggurat. Within the ruins, they encounter a wounded Raishan. Keyleth takes charge, employing her druidic abilities against Raishan, who counters with the ziggurat’s ominous magic, mocking the group with her haughtiness as the climactic battle unfolds.

In the heated clash against Raishan, I find myself in a perilous predicament as she taps into the ziggurat’s arcane might, morphing once more into her fearsome dragon incarnation, swearing to annihilate every last Ashari village. My initial strikes on her merely grazed her hide, while Grog’s charge connected but sent him tumbling aside effortlessly. Vax bravely confronted Raishan, only to be ensnared by her sorcery in mid-air. As she prepared to extinguish Vax’s life, Vex’s swift arrow arrived just in time, disrupting Raishan’s concentration and freeing Vax from her grasp. Pike stepped forward, confident that her vestige armor could withstand her attack, but Raishin’s enigmatic breath weapon proved too powerful. Determined to save my comrades, she used the ziggurat’s stones to isolate Keyleth, but little did she know that our friend had a strategy up her sleeve.

In the heat of the battle, I charge through the enchanted barriers as Keyleth metamorphoses and deftly evades Raishan’s assaults. However, a powerful strike knocks her off her feet. Crumpling beneath the impact, she miraculously regains consciousness, bolstered by the energy stored from her earlier ritual. Though battered and resolute, she summons her druidic might, with Vax providing backup from a powder box pilfered from Ripley’s vessel. The conflict leaves Keyleth gravely wounded. Desperate to save Percy, Vax seeks counsel from the Matron of Ravens, who refuses ushering in such power. Inspired by Pike to challenge even the divine, Vax decides to take a chance, clutching Vex’s blue feather as a talisman of hope.

In simple terms, the last three episodes of The Legend of Vox Machina season 3 strongly demonstrate that it’s one of the best shows currently on television, which is a shame because it often gets ignored during award seasons. The finale offers an exciting mix of emotion, humor, and intense action. The series skillfully builds up tension as Vox Machina encounters its most significant challenges yet.

The series flawlessly combines intense clashes with tender, emotional scenes, perfectly blending humor and sorrow in a remarkable demonstration of top-tier fantasy storytelling. Its unexpected turns and fights exceeding expectations make every episode thrilling, raising the bar for the genre and leaving fans anxiously awaiting the next step on Vox Machina’s journey. As the series gears up for its fourth installment, it will be fascinating to discover which adventure Critical Role takes us on next.
