      Weird shit with the light happening because their heroes were just too good at their job, a general gist of it. Naturally occurring since the balance is heavily favored towards the light and that's the result of it.
      I'm just explaining it for someone who doesn't play the game. Shouldn't be too spoilery either.

    I always love seeing an outside perspective of Shadowbringers in particular: it very much is "light" and "darkness" flipped on its head, where the symbolism of good is evil, and the symbolism of evil is heroic. In other words, the confusion is by design!

      That’s a violation of the natural order, souls may be made of aether but to manipulate them in such a manner is a taboo in this world. While not intentional, the implication is quite terrible if you understand the truth of the matter. Aether is a unique form of matter since it is both spiritual and physical, and behaves as both matter and energy at the same time.

      @AvengingMikon 7 місяців тому

      @@acgearsandarms1343 the implication isn’t “terrible if you understand the truth of the matter.” You *go and fight souls of the departed* and you’re explicitly told souls don’t maintain coherence for very long, depending on their strength. The average soldier is already going to be frayed beyond coherence minutes after death. And if they were coherent then how many would say “no” if you asked them “wanna save what’s left of the world? You’ll die. But you were dead anyway.” It’s like you paid no attention to Fourchenault or Emet-Selch.

While it wouldn't be their souls, all of the aether of the combined dead could have gone directly to a source that was absorbing it. Hence, Superelf. Interesting. EDIT: Also.

      @@acgearsandarms1343 I said the Aether. Not the soul. The soul would be stripped of aether and the soul would return to the lifestream. Though what we would term a soul, our memories, personality, skills, et cetera would be the aether itself, not the soul. Souls act more like... aether generators. Though we have seen that memories can be carved into the soul on certain factors I'm not sure about. Once the soul returns to the sea the aether is slowly stripped away from it and becomes part of the greater whole. I don't know what that means for an afterlife, either its something we cannot know, or they simply have the lore and they haven't told us yet. As long as it isn't like WoW's afterlife.

      @@CrystalPrelude Actually they do explain it in Endwalker. True, aether is not the soul, but a soul is composed of aether as all things are according to aetherology.

      @@acgearsandarms1343 Very true. I forgot about that. Even though souls are made of Aether, they are apparently... different. As even the Ancients couldn't create souls. They seem to occur under certain triggers, but no one has a clue what those triggers are. We know the "core" is different, as the Dotharl believe in reincarnation. That when a Dotharl dies, their soul will find a fetus of the tribe and inhabit it. How they can tell its the same soul, or if some traces remain, I don't remember. I like the fact that souls are a mystery beyond basics.

    To help your ma with the whole Light and Darkness thing with Shadowbringers: Think of it not so much as Good and Evil so much as Ying and Yang. Light is Stasis i.e. keeping things the way they are, whereas Darkness is Change. Hope that helps
