No, just no. The Scions are perfect as they are now.

Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of ageing.
Kill Y'shtola.
I don't like G'raha but at least he's fallible.
Kill Estinien, I never liked him. He's useless, clueless, boring and unnecessary. I cringed so hard when he was added as a Scion.
Don't kill G'raha but change his idiotic personality back to Exarch (or similar to Exarch). It's a shame he went full retard after 5.3.
Professional lurker.
Estinien is a needed role. We don't have much in the manner of physical prowess outside of him. We have Thancred and maybe the WoL.
We have a ton of nerds.
When we lost Yda as a Scion they needed a new "Yo my solution to problem is to punch the problem till it ceases to be a problem" guy. He was the perfect fit.
When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.
Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.
I've thought for a bit... and, something came to me: can we truly get rid of the Scions without killing or stranding them?
As far as the WoL goes, the Scions are the most resourceful allies they have... If you want an authority of knowledge, why wouldn't you ask for Y'shtola, Urianger or Krile's help? Same for a trustyworthy tank, or someone with diplomatic influence. Not saying that new characters can't assume such roles, but if you do already have those contacts - close people that you can fully trust - why not?
I'm not putting this as a 'want or want not' for them, but maybe a realistic situation to think about. Even if Dawntrail didn't feature any Scions at first, or just one or two, we would certainly see them coming in as soon as the 'good vibes' plot gets deeper and darker with the evolution of the new arc and the specialized help is needed.
It'd be pretty easy to accomplish given the context of Dawntrail.I've thought for a bit... and, something came to me: can we truly get rid of the Scions without killing or stranding them?

Just say the WoL is going on a solo adventure to the new world. Over there, they meet some new people and help them solve some problems or whatnot. Maybe you involve a scion here and there but otherwise have it mostly be the new cast members. Boom problem solved.
