The possible return of the Leviathans are one of the main reasons why Qlipoth is building these walls around the cosmos to protect the living worlds, because the Leviathans pretty much considers every civilizations as food sources
Honestly i think the reason why certain paths haven't assimilated with similar paths like Harmony and order is mostly cause the other paths are distinct enough to not "merge" whereas order and Harmony both desire stability
Right, harmony is a form of order so i still think it would make more sense if ena absorbed xipe. There’s also the theory that xipe absorbed ena, tazzyronth and idrila, and I think that paths are more likely to merge due to external forces rather than because of correlation.
I’ve had this theory that Jade is somewhat tide to the voracity and here’s why. Jade has a lot of snake symbolism all over her, specifically her Heel in her ultimate animation and the snake almost looks like the infinity sign. And the Oroboros the Aeon is inspired by the real world ouroboros symbol which is a snake eating itself that represents infinity\ rebirth. Jade has also a lot of references to Eve from the Bible. For those that don’t know the story, Eve was tempted by satan who took the form of a snake then offered the fruit of good and Evil to her. She took it and gave it to Adam causing them to be banned from the Garden of Eden. Jade splash art makes a reference to the Tree of Good and Evil with a literal Appel in her hand. It’s possible that Jades real name is Eve to fit the theme and it’s possible that someone high council in the IPC is a follower of Voracity that tempted her with the privileges of IPC which could have caused her to be banished from her home world or even the destruction of her home world. This could set up a main story quest where the follower of voracity is destroying the pier point inside out. We know that the voracity path opposes the preservation so it would make sense that they would attack the IPC because they follow the Preservation. What do you think??
Oh yeah Jade and even the IPC as a whole definitely was hinted to be tied to the Voracity in 2.3. I agree with Jade being based on Eve, and I'm excited to see where they go with her character. I would've mentioned all this, but unfortunately I made this video before a vacation I went on, which was before 2.3 lmao
getting eaten and vored by jade?! I'm in! now where do I sign up?
@@user-bg1zn1zy3voh dear
This is interesting theory
That’s why she’s most likely paired with Sunday… the guy that follows the Order, with Ena having clear inspiration from God… Sunday’s “fall from grace” definitely mimics that of a fallen angel who fell from heaven. Ena is based off God and has the angelic character while Ouroboros has the character that mimics the devil…
Ouroboros and Jade also have parallels to the dangerous yet attractive woman mentioned in proverbs to use temptation to draw people into sin… as seen by their designs, Jade was designed to be very attractive not only for sales but it also ties into her character essentially being the personification of temptation. With Ouroboros having an attractive woman that is used to entice like that of an angler fish as a lure…
Her trailer really does show this
Omg I love the image of Oroboros being extremely reserved due to past mistakes in eating their followers. It's so funny. it's like: "Can I have a..." and the place is just gone.
"Hmmm belobog looks like a delicious ball of ice cream!" - Some follower of the voracity
I truly believe that the Harmony and the Order were the only unique cases of 2 Aeons converging together in unison, as both desire stability and unity. In fact, the Rememberence and the Preservation both have similar concepts. It's just that one wishes to preserve memories to be remembered for eternity as memories serve as proof for existence while the other wishes to preserve the physical world by enacting giant galactic walls to protect multiple worlds from the Destruction
There was another case of assimilation though. As it was stated that "Tayzzyronth, The Propagation" assimilated the Path of "Long, The Permanence" in his ascension to Aeonhood.
@@itsyaboy9829 Sure, Tayzzyronth did assimilate Long's Path but they were long gone, no pun intended. What makes Ena and Xipe's assimilation unique is because it was mutually beneficial for both parties involved.
@@ZECRA602 no it wasn't? Ena sure as hell didn't want to get assimilated. Xipe just possessed the more encompassing Path, which led to their convergence and the emergence of Xipe in the dominant position.
It is also most likely that Tazzy absorbed The Permanence Path due to his Propagation Path encompassing more as well.
@@itsyaboy9829 Tayzzyronth split Propagation from Permanence, not absorbed it
@@itsyaboy9829 Nah Tayzzyronth split from the Permanence. He didn't assimilate it.
There may be a Faction of Voracity called “Beast Horde”. In the Simulated Universe, you may occasionally run into the Occurrence known as, “Beast Horde: Voracious Catastrophe”, it talks about an adult Beast in pain, protecting their cubs from us, since they’re unaware of our intent.
The Beast Horde might just end up being an umbrella term for Beast-like entities and nothing more. However the name and design of the Occurrence suggests some affiliation with the Voracity.
This does raise a rather significant question … can animals become Pathstriders? I mean, Paths are just a philosophical pursuit of an idea … however the Path of Propagation is all about the act of Propagating, not it’s philosophy. The Path of Propagation is quite simply the instinctual desire to breed, nothing less, and nothing more. A Path based off of an entity’s instinct, sounds like something the Path of Voracity might have in common with the Path of Propagation.
The instinctual desire to devour with a gluttonous appetite. Doesn’t sound like something that Beasts will find too hard to comprehend. If a Path doesn’t need much comprehension to follow, then what’s to stop an animal from becoming a Pathstrider of such Paths?
I really really love the theory that the all devouring Narwhal from Genshin is an emanating of the Voracity. THEY are super interesting, defensively in my top three fav Aeons.
Honestly, they are pretty weak to be an Emenator. Probably just a Pathstrider of Voracity?
Love the theory though.
@@itsyaboy9829 yeah that’s a fair point, but it would be super cool to have them be either a pathstrider or an emanator of Oroboros.
Too weak to be an Eminator. A path strider at best. Tho I think it can be a baby leviathan.
For now Oroboros and Terminus is still the biggest mysteries in term of lore in HSR. Only Terminus has witnessed the history of the universe itself from the beginning until the end. I have a theory that the size of Oroboros is almost universal size according to lore as it mentions that Oroboros has devoured 2/3 of the universe🤯
mild 2.3 spoilers ahead:
is it possible that one of the three paths followed by the people of amphoreus could be voracity? i think it could be plausible due to a couple of things:
the first reason is that there are no known followers of the voracity (as mentioned in the video). based on what we know (since i'm pretty sure the only reason that most of the universe is able to contact each other is due to the star rail system), it's likely that amphoreus hasn't made contact with other planets in thousands of years, if at all, so it's possible that the people of amphoreus only know of the *very* ancient aeons, such as oroboros.
oroboros' followers *could* be, as suggested in the video, few and far between, but they could also be primarily worshipped by much older, or more "traditional" civilizations.
the second reason would be due to the description of the path itself. it's stated that life "is a flickering fragment floating in the sea of void, destined to return to the darkness." considering that the planet could, quite literally, be just a fragment of life floating around the void (as black swan says it's a world "hidden away from outside observation, only revealed by the light of the mirror of the Garden of Recollection"), forgotten by the rest of the universe, it would make sense that the people of that planet might follow voracity.
(could be coincidental, but i also feel like the voracity's idea of "returning to the darkness" and black swan's mention of *light* to reveal the planet is interesting.)
just speculating, of course, but i think it'd be really neat if this was the case !
Why did I found this channel just now omg I love the aeon lore!
I find it disturbing that they're the Drinker of Worlds not the Eater.
THEY getting the slurpy straw out
They literally inhale billions of stars for breakfast
I think Oroboros followers were the only follower who didn't want to meet their aeon face to face😅
The Aeon that literally ATE ✨💅
Little bit addition. In current lore detail, the only path that clash with voracity was propagation simply because Tayzeroth heir did consume everything on its path. This is the reason ouroboros openly fighting tayzeroth before aeon coalition was formed.
Lastly we did experience communicating with ouroboros in SU. When she talked, those who heard her will feel primal instinct to be eaten by her. It is so powerfull herta had to pause the simulation . Herta pause the simulation only if it was extremely dangerous like meeting IX or entranced by Ouroboros. If you not aware how odd this is, she even let nanook kill us instantly and rewind back unlike IX and ouroboros
So this may be a bit of a nonsensical take, but I think that what differentiates the destruction and voracity's philosophies is that, as other commenters have said, voracity is something related to instinct... and instinct is related to the survival of the self, while on the other hand, Nanook believes existence itself is a mistake and wishes to "undo" creation... whathever that might entail...
The preservation's relationship with the voracity (and leviathans in general) makes me very curious... as another commenter said, it could very well be a plotpoint once we reach Pierpoint. I wonder how they'll manage to represent Qlipoth in-game, when that time comes... considering it's near the planet and its enormous size...
Omg best Aeon Mentioned 🎉
It *is* worth remembering that the actual 'names' of the Paths are slight misnomers; that is to say, the word 'Destruction' can't fully encompass everything the Path actually stands for and embodies, and this is presumably reflective of all Aeons/Paths. That being said, I simply can't overlook the fact that the Voracity and the Nihility are the only two Paths off the top of my head that mention black holes and voids so frequently.
The Leviathans are very interesting, I wonder why the IPC is keeping things shrouded in mystery? It could be that the Leviathans are terrifying and they don't want certain tidbits of information getting out because it might cause mass panic or the information could cause Qlipoth to be viewed in a negative light. (Or them at the very least)
I actually had one crack theory that the Leviathans are actually responsible for the stellarons, but this has no evidence and was mostly fueled by people's doubts that Nanook is the cause.
Either way I hope we get more Leviathan lore, the Aeons especially Ouroboros have really awesome designs so I'm hoping that if we see more Leviathans Hoyo just lets loose and gives us really cool looking monster designs.
I like to imagine that the reason ouroboros nanook and IX exist cuz Ix doesn’t care and nanook and ouroboros are having a contest to see which of there paths will bring the end to the universe first
Caseoh is the closest we have to an emanator of Voracity.
Interesting that you mentioned Rahu. In Vedic Astrology, Rahu and Ketu, or the North and South Node, are shadow planets, and are often called the Dragon's Head and the Dragon's Tail respectively, the symbol is the same you find on the hoods of cobras. In western astrology, Rahu, or the North Node, is considered your "destiny" or where you learn the most valuable lessons. However, in Vedic astrology on the other hand, it represents the area where we experience materialism, obsession dissatisfaction and confusion. It is said by Vedic astrologers, that wherever Rahu is located in your birth chart, by sign and house, it's the area of your life where you won't ever be satisfied, no matter how much fortune you have, you still want more, essentially becoming the "Voracity" if that makes sense.
5:01 ..the ipc..? maybe..? ik they say they follow preservation but, dont we know people who fooled us about paths b4? like a certain chicken-wing boy...?
I would love to see a video about Device IX
Moving aside Ouroboros' fertility, why would being devoured by The Voracity be unfortunate if you follow that path
Well personally, I think it would still be a bit disappointing if you met your god and they just at you. Also moving aside THEIR what.
@@SiliconOneFour Well some people can be fanatics, wouldn't it be an honor to be devoured the embodiment of Voracity, I ate and I was eaten, it's like getting gazed by Nous or Aha playing a prank on you or Nanook personally destroying your shit, as a follower yes please
Okay fair, but Nanook has Lord Ravagers, people who destroy for THEM, so I think at least some of the followers would want to keep on going for their Aeon
@@SiliconOneFour Yeah but Voracity is vastly different from Destruction, it's just consumption, a path strider either wants to feed their god or devour until they can't no more and at that point they won't care about getting devoured, although Voracity doesn't seem to be popular
This being doesn't have to look like human, but people didn't look like human
Y'all its caseoh
Isn't Lan the Hunt a surviving leviathan who also ascended to become an aeon? or maybe i misread it somewhere
No, THEY didn't ascend until after the Xianzhou ships set off.
would
nihility doesnt have nothing in common with destroction or voracity, nihility is just plain apaty and the idea of nothing have meaning (and no, is not the depresion path eather)
:< D
You really make 10 minutes video only to get more money but the true is that you just say It's caseoh
GUY HEAR ME OUT
