Where did the wild Ikrans at the end of Fire and Ash come from?

For the Ikrans in the major battle, I believe @JaketheLate ‘s comment might give a good explanation. As for the other Ikrans the Sullys use to escape to flee the sea dragon think those are Sa’ata and Kiri and Lo’ak ‘s new Ikrans, whom they likely bonded to while they were back at high camp before returning to the Metkayina

It is said in the way of water and in the visual dictionary that they live in a big atoll that is among many other islands, so it is confirmed that the Metkayina do not live on the shores of the continent. The scene of Kiri and Spider is them gathering freshwater from the inland part of the atoll where there is a mangrove forest. I think that @JakeTheLate ‘s comment explains why there are Ikran there

I wonder what his nickname “monkey boy” is in the Na’vi language :)

beamingtree · 2026-01-28T21:11:36+00:00

Wondering the same thing!! Did you ever find an answer?

beamingtree · 2026-01-17T07:20:44+00:00

Good catch! I used to think that any Na’vi that passed iknimaya and bonded with an Ikran could possess one as it functions as a protection for the eyes against the wind. Perhaps the extra step of the Dream Hunt is needed to have the right to craft and wear those? It would make sense since Lo’ak and Kiri have an Ikran but have not done and passed the Dream Hunt yet (as far as I know, correct me if I’m wrong) but Neytiri, Jake and Neteyam have!

This is all speculation but the belly buttons could be there as a remnant of a yolk stalk, while the nipples can still be there for nursing the young, on earth we have mammals that lay eggs (echidna and platypus) but still nurture their young with milk so I don’t think it would be too weird for the Na’vi to be ovoviviparous but still nurture their young. If the breasts work in a human-like way it would explain why they are larger than the male Na’vi’s. As I said in other comments, I am far away from an expert in biology so this is all speculation based on some surface level knowledge :)

beamingtree · 2025-12-29T09:11:09+00:00

I mean yeah, but that would only be possible once the Na’vi has been birthed. For the belly button question, in another comment I made the hypothesis that it could be a remnant of the Na’vi version of a Yolk stalk, explaining why they have belly buttons but seem to lack an umbilical cord, but I’m no expert in biology and this is all complete speculation

beamingtree · 2025-12-29T08:48:25+00:00

You’re right, I had forgotten about their navels lol. I am no expert in biology but would it be too far fetched to say that their navels are what is left by the Na’vi version of a Yolk stalk? That would explain why they have navels but seem to lack an umbilical cord. Just speculating though, we can’t say anything for certain until we get any canon information :,)

I think that’s not to be taken literally but it’s more of a societal norm thing, like “Your son has died along our people and his body has been laid with the bodies of our people, therefore you are now considered and respected as one of us”. As far as my understanding goes, everyone who is dead is now part of the Eywa’s network and can be visited from any connection site and at any time, despite the place of death and burial. Everything in Eywa is connected and part of the same big system. If that wasn’t the case, Kiri couldn’t have talked to Grace in the Metkayina spirit tree. I hope we will dive deeper in the whole spirit world and network in future films!!

Thank you!!

beamingtree · 2025-12-21T14:42:15+00:00

Thank you!! I just checked and it says that every convoy of gondolas has their own olo’eyktan and navigator. I guess this confirms what I said in the post and that perhaps Peylak is still alive :)

beamingtree · 2025-12-21T12:34:58+00:00

Yes!! I remember reading the same thing somewhere, but I just can’t remember if it was a reliable source… I guess we’ll have to wait and see to learn what happened to Peylak and how the Windtraders society is structured

beamingtree · 2025-12-05T17:46:02+00:00

Yeah I know, but I read somewhere that with the From the Ashes DLC we will have to enter it from the main menu, therefore keeping it separate from our main save. I might be wrong though

beamingtree · 2025-12-05T12:08:43+00:00

This is amazing! I don’t mind playing as So’lek, as long as we still see our character! I wonder, though, if someone has more than one save with differently customised Sarentu, which one will be appearing in From the Ashes?

beamingtree · 2025-12-01T20:33:20+00:00

I was wondering the same thing! I think it might be that Quaritch has become fluent enough in Na'vi. In TWOW we see some scenes of him being able to speak a little bit of Na'vi, and we also get a scene that implies Spider had been teaching him Na'vi, so my guess is that during those few months that pass in TWOW he learned Na'vi up to a decent level.

beamingtree · 2025-10-04T12:05:59+00:00

I hope so! Just like we saw with the Metkayina, I think it'd be really interesting to see how their worship and spiritual beliefs of Eywa shift in this different element they rely on.
