Babe wake up, new Synodic Scribe lore video dropped
What seems to be lost of so many people setting foot on this land is the nation is 80 years young. 80 years is a life time, less for many of the people on this star. Many smaller nations struggle to last this long. The idea of a peaceful transfer of power often doesn't happen with nations a fraction as big. And yet people think someone wanting to keep peace if a weak idea for a ruler. When a lust for power and status quo ripped the Garlean empire apart BEFORE Zenos took over. We have no idea how bad the fight for the crown was cause we had a realm to rebuild and then a Dragonsong war to end. I might not put this as my personal highlight of this journey but I look forward to this nation's growth with the new rulers.
There were a few things I noticed while playing through the DT story which got me consider the possibility that the end of the WoL and the beginning of Azem's journey.
The WoL came into possession of Azem's crystal. Then prior to fighting Elidibis we used the ancient incantation in sundered form we took up the seat of Azem. Venat having been the previous Azem prior to the sundering, her mentoring the WoL ended when her duty discharged she went to the Aetherial sea. We were reminded that the Azem's crystal is now permanently in our possession.
Spoilers for DT incoming. Those few things came to my attention with the story of Wuk Lamat's growth, first From ARR-Endwalker we were told Hear, Feel, Think. in DT through Wuk Lamat's growth we experienced what was meant of Hear, Feel, Think. Remember when Wuk Lamat and Koana's camp were side by side, this was when Koana confirmed Hear, Feel, Think.. The next odd thing within the story was Azem's crystal was front and center, in our face, when we weren't in a raid. The final piece which had me consider the growth from WoL to Azem is when we were asked why we do what we do and one of the answers was; "For the love of the star." And a final piece is Azem's symbol appears on the mysterious ancient key Sphene is using that can open gates between the reflections of Etheirys.
That being said there was this interview with Yoshi Pwww.finaland.com/?rub=site&page=news&id=6801 Being I can spin some good theory and I may be wrong, however Venat is no longer guiding us. The designation of the adventurer is now the Traveler.
The Scribe has returned - I've never seen such a bookworm so fervent on foot in pursuit of knowledge.
The prospects of unknown cultures and history of Tural is a veritable city of gold in its own right for a scholar such as yourself.
The Studium will be most pleased with your future findings in this expedition. 💙
24:51 Don't forget the fact that before the feast in the cinderfield, Gulool Ja Ja and their party spanked both sides of the war like a disobedient child
It's going to be exciting to see how the Golden City is going to integrate into all the other tribes and cultures of Tural.
SPOILERS
With Gulool Ja as Alexandria's young king, technically the entire continent is already united under one royal family. And with it's electrope technology, it'll spring the continent's technology forward in unpredictable ways.
I was paying attention when playing through the Dawntrail story, but this helped connect the dots together!
welcome back professor i hope your vaction in tural was great
It was great! I sipped drinks, documented ancient artifacts and got to hear even more stories I'd never heard!
A complete history of my current obsession? Thanks! 10/10
One of my biggest questions is how did the Yok Huy (and also the Ishgardians) build a bridge with support structures that extend down into the chasm of aether between Yok Tural and Xak Tural? Did they have to construct massive pillars off-site and drop them in place? I'm assuming they couldn't just go down there and build up.
If I had to guess, magic, probably.
I wonder what the other "Golden Cities" Emet was referring to?
Was it just Everkeep? Its last level in particular?
Or was there more? Like say the other cities and their people that the Ancient Ascians visited but were not apart of before the Sundering? Could they have hidden away rather than comfront either the Final Days or the Primal Gods of the Ascians make?
Then there is the mysterious civilization that eerily follows a similar culture and architecture of Ronka thats found on a reflection and not on the Source. Could these people moved further north? Hidden elsewhere?... Or perhaps if they are a civilization that stems or was part of Ronka, migrated to another reflection?
Or, heh, perhaps simply Godbert Manderville will make a new resort here in the New World that could be mistaken as a Golden City of high entertainment! XD
I don’t think there was more. He specified “of the New World.”
The Scribe returns to tell the tale of what might be my favorite place in all of Etherys. As someone that was born in rased in the American Southwest Xak tural Felt like home in a way i cant accuratly pput into words. The All the Mixing of Cultures and Races throughout the two continents...It's honestly felt more alive and bustling Than any other place Ive been To and It fills me with an Energy I havent felt in Years~
I'm looking forward to your next Video and I hope Your own Trip through Tural has been a Fantastic one~
Just a heads up, Hydaelyn sundered the world at Silvertear. It's the center of the world and a crater besides.
Citation needed. As far as my notes show we don't know for certain where Hydaelyn delivered her final blow.
Welcome back lore master! I liked your video on Turali history. Would you consider doing a video on which reflection you speculate Alexandria and the Unlost are from? I found an interesting video on UA-cam about it and would like your thoughts. Plus I’ve seen videos about which reflections are still in the universe and which ones no longer exist because they were rejoined due to a calamity. But I’m not sure how we know exactly which reflections are around and which are not aside from the 1st and 13th that we’ve visited. Would you consider making videos clarifying on these two topics? I really appreciate your storytelling and in depth knowledge of XIV lore. Thank you for sharing your gift with us!
I might have mixed feeling about dawntrail msq, but I will surely enjoy your take on the new lore we have gotten about this region :D
Oh heck yeah! I've been restlessly waiting for the start of the lore videos!
It's odd that the Yok tuy went north when the golden gate would appear in the south. (In an area where it's cheaper to aether travel from Limsa than the others for one reason or another)
alexandria DID show up in the north tho
What do you think of the Ronka Ruin in Tender Valley? Are the Ronkas a pre-sundering civilization? Two separate civilizations who just happened to develop in a similar way? One civilization who traveled between the source and the first?
Ronka is not a pre-sundering civilization. Ronka was founded by a tribe of Ronso(Hrothgar) who later invited other races into their empire, an empire that would eventually fall some 3000 years ago(time in the first, not Source).
The ruins at Tender Valley are mostly built by the Yok Huy, to venerate the Greatest Serpent of Tural.
The First is a reflection of the Source, so many similarities exist between them, things and people that are similar and different at the same time. Some are very similar, like the Train nerds on Source and the trolley nerds on the First. Most things appear similar but function differently, Lalafell and Dwarves, Kobolds and Mord, while some things are similar but have gone a different path, like: Gerolt & Rowena and Grenolt & Mowen.
My opinion is that Ronka is a reflection of the empire of Yok Huy.
Scree!
@@Nuinwing The Yok Huy found the Great serpent ruin, they didnt build them. They decided to build around the ruins after starting to worship the serpent!
I like to believe that pre-sundering there was a civilization that happened to worship the great scree serpent, and then after the sundering happened, they happened to branch off and become the scree-worshipping civilizations on the First and Source and likely the other reflections. I dont think its possible that the existence of 2 screes can be a coincidence.
@@kayymoi I think assuming the ruins were pre-sundering seems like a huge leap of fancy when you consider that the Yok Huy found this place around the halfway point of the 6th astral era and that as far as I'm aware no pre-sundering ruins or items have been found on the Source and of the first 2 astral eras as far as I know only some cave paintings and a few magical items(not even sure of these) have been found.
It's much more likely that the ruins were from the 5th or 4th astral eras and more than likely were abandoned during the 6th umbral calamity because of the global flood.
I will say that one thing is most likely pre-sundering here, the serpent itself! My guess is that it is one of the creations of the Ancients but for what purpose they made it, we can only guess, I think given its cutesy appearance and aura that seems to invite people to like or even worship it, could mean that it was made to be a companion or a guardian for a child or some of the lesser sentient creatures of the time.
Another thing that interest me is that the temple in Tender Valley had 3 identical altars, each with a vessel on them, could it be that there were once more of these serpents there? Also with how this thing can do the Tulidisaster, could it have some connection to Valigarmanda?
Also worth noting is that the Ronkan serpent is a friendly and helpful creature, while the Turali one is an aggressive one, is this just the difference between the Source and the First, like with for example Gerolt and Grenolt or something else?
Also sorry for taking so long to answer, RL can demand one to focus on other things.
Yay! Class is back in session!! I'm so glad I bought new quills and parchment ❤
Took me until the end to realize mama bun was the viera with Galool Jaja
Yaay Scribe is back from the Tural! I Can't wait to hear all about it!
Yay a new video! It's nice to have such a clear timeline video to reference when thinking about all this stuff. And I thought maybe I'd mixed up that the reason the Yok Huy expanded north was in search of the golden city, but I guess if they'd been everywhere in the South, where else would it be 😅.
Anyway, I really enjoyed the world building of the first part of the expansion, and I'm looking forward to the tribal quests to come. I know I'm going to enjoy coming back to these lands in the future, as well.
Also looking forward to new videos!
Wooo welcome back scribe. We missed ya buddy.
Im so excited for your Danwtrail videos! Thank you for the conent!
You have such a relaxing and clear voice
I appreciate that. ^^
Did they ever say why the Pelu Pelu were enslaved by the giants? What did they have them do? Were they just raising alpacas for taco meat and making mezcal?
Yay! He’s back!
WOOOOOO! TURAL VIDEO!
What an incredible tale as always synodis scribe but I'm kinda curious about this new world did the ascians ever interacted with the new world? and If they did did the new world ever experience some of the umbrella calamities?
If the Ascians did interact with the tribes of Tural then solid records haven't popped up yet. As for the Calamities, yes. We currently have no reason to believe Tural was completely unaffected by the Umbral Calamities.
Bravo
Well written well narrated ❤
Just peaked on this channel yesterday to make sure I had not missed a video.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
Ive been waiting so patient for your amazing work
Question: How long do people generally live? More specifically Roegadyns. Kettenram's gotta be at least around 100. Also wondering why he looks like a young man in the 20 year flashback.
Yeah I was shocked by him still being around too. He's gotta be pushing 100. haha
Most races, if healthy, can live till they're around 80-100.
Races like the Elezen can live up till they're 150.
And Viera can live even longer than that!
welcome back from your adventure! so excited to watch this
Just in time to brighten a very stressful day. Thanks so much!
This video is just what I needed! :D
This is a fantastic way to wind down after work!
its also interesting the Garleans never found Tural, Given they had airships that were a lot faster than a boat.
Glad to see you're back can't wait for more lore videos :)
I've been looking forward to dawntrail content from you!
I was so hyped when basically every thing in your last video you mentioned had found a way to make an appearance in the expansion.
I know you were apprehensive about where the story was going when they announced Solution 9, so I'm curious. How do you feel about the events of Dawntrail?
I'm sure you're going to post videos about this in the future so a simple "Dawntrail Yay or Nay" answer will suffice!
The content where I express my interest or disinterest in the lore/world buildings of FFXIV has almost constantly berated. But I'll be keeping my opinions to myself and not upload any content like that anymore.
Simple black and white lore videos from now on!
@@SynodicScribe that's a real shame. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I hope you enjoyed Dawntrail. I was very pleasantly surprised, as I was expecting it to be very mid. Either way I look forward to seeing anything you have to say about it!
Ah, finally chipping away at Dawntrail Lore. I am thouroughly excited
What are the Scribes opinion of not one, but TWO blue Hoobigo sightings in the Crystal Tower of Ancient Allag, and what this might mean for the old empire's more far afield activities and possible genetic meddling with the natives of Tural?
Encyclopedia Eorzea II page 187 states:
"With the third astral era came the rise of the Allagan empire, and it was but a matter of centuries before the nation had conquered most of the three great continents, as well as portions of the new world."
There is no doubt Allag was present in the new world (unless it has been retconned), so there is significant room to theorise.
I always love your videos. I learn a lot! ❤
I heard you squealing in the distance the moment they explained the difference between Autachs and Dawnservants.
God I'm glad they cleared that up...
Woo hoo I was waiting for more lore videos!!
Yay a Scribe video!
Unfortunately , I have not finished the main story So I shall return later
The Scribe speaks!
*sits down* Been waiting for this for weeks!
I was hoping you would be posting soon i am sure you will have some fun with the new Lore
long awaited video!!
WELCOME BACK!
Great video, Professor!
Welcome back, good sir
Welcome back, Scribe!
Please make a video about Azem's hourglass key!
EDIT: Just saw your latest vid. Thanks so much!
Yay, this is what i've been waiting for also, it's two continents, They say As much in the story.
Finally someone some good f-ing food 👏🏾
I cant help but wonder if the artifact from the healer role quests is the source of the pestilence that struck the yok huy
Galool jaja in his prime no1 can go 1v1 against him his a beast, unified the whole continent one banner, golden boy indeed first mamol ja two headed. Remind a story 300 like how you grown up as a male.
Yes! New SS video
I might need a refresher on my memory, but where does the pickled cabbage part comes from? If anyone knows why it’s popular and why it’s associated with Ketenramm?
dare I ask...if you will cover the scree lore? or are you counting that as more fable then fact?
I came here to leave my like and support my favorite lore channel. Because oh boy, Dawntrail MSQ has made me sick of Tural. Keep up the good work Scribe!!
Oh? Anything else in the expansion pique your interest?
@@SynodicScribe Hmm...yes actually. That would be how a Pictomancer can create an space that big as seen in the job quest with not that much aether, with guards and all.
Has it been stated that Tural experienced the Final Days in Dawntrail? I got done with both Endwalker and Dawntrail recently, but everyone there acts like the Final Days didn't happen so I'm really confused and curious about that.
It feels like your packaging of the lore is better told than the expansion itself ^^;
Great vid!
Aww yiss. Muthafukken lore video.
Cheers to the "completed Dawntrail" gang!
Neat. Nerd stuff.
It was Rated b for bestest
Hello guys whats the name of the soundtrack used near the beginning of the video at 0:05 ?
“Spoken without end” from Endwalker
i'm shaking send help
You think the north will not rebel since the great dawnservant Galool jaja has kill by his son.
There’s a lot fan don’t like Wuk lamant
Algorithm
Thanks. The algorithm has never liked me much. lol
After being so disappointed with how bad the Dawntrail msq was, I'm glad to at least hear some interesting lore told by the scribe.
