    *PLEASE NOTE:*
    This video should NOT be taken too seriously. This isn't a theory as we need to first see the actual lore of v3.6 before I can use my two lonely brain cells to make sense of the magnificent beast that is this game's lore. The trailer simply brought to light an inconsistency I had not yet noticed, and that snowballed into more VERY SPECULATIVE predictions. Please keep that in mind. And feel free to share your own predictions!
    Also, there is around a minute of audio where you can hear birds chirping. I made the mistake of opening my window for some fresh air and did not notice my mic had picked up on that until the video was already edited. Also, yes, this is a *reupload* as I acidentally uploaded a cancelled render from DaVinci that was missing the last 10 minutes of the video. So sorry about that! 🙏

      The birds were great atmosphere! Also when it comes to theory crafting I think its more important to NOT take yourself too seriously and just have fun with it! Any attempt is better then no attempt as you never know when you'll stumble across an idea that just blows your mind. Or for that matter when you notice a detail everyone else was overlooking. Keep having fun. Your doing Great!

    Just rolling the dice on a theory but:
    Abyss Realm: we briefly visited when the Chasm collapsed and we escaped via a magic compass.
    Elemental Realm: exists between abyss and light realm. I think of this more as a border between the abyss and light realm. Enkanomiya is a good example imo. The 7 dragon sovereigns who once ruled kept the balance between the 2. However when Phanes invaded and defeated the 7 Dragon Sovereigns he took their elemental power to create the 7 Gnoses. This was then used as a means of power and foundation for the development of Tehvat which exists in
    The Light Realm: This realm is the Overworld we play in regularly. It's foundation sits upon the elemental realm but since the fall of the 7 dragon Sovereigns it is out of balance.
    Furthermore the abyss heralds etc. are predominantly of the fallen Seelie race with a few being more recent conscripts like Enjou. The Cryo herald appearing to Clothar before the Abyss Order and the notes found relating Khaenriah fighting against the abyss seem to support this theory.
    I bring this up to state that the original denizens of this world once lived in balance and that the Abyss Realm was merely a factor in this balance. But since Phanos invasion it has been a constant imbalance and the natural forces of this world that once worked together now are at odds with another. As such this polarization brought about by the Usurper we refer to as the Primordial One is the direct cause. The Elemental realm has grown thin and now the abyss Lashes out due to its suppressed state.
    Another way to look at the 3 realms is thusly:
    Light Realm: Higher consciousness
    Elemental Realm: Subconscious mind
    Abyss Realm: Unconscious mind
    Irminsul: Collective Unconsciousness
    The reason why Tehvat appears so static is because it's not functioning properly. The leylines are blocked as memories are not being processed correctly. This causes all forms of disturbances and erosion due to the mental block on forbidden knowledge.
    Why is this model so useful? Well since so much lore is borrowed from the Greeks let's analyze it.
    Gaia: Is the Goddess and the world we humans live upon.
    Uranus: makes up the sky and heavens.
    Hades: God of the dead and the Realm of the dead itself.
    Tartarus: A realm below Hades itself and said to be the corpse of the slain proto-genosi aka God Tartarus. A prison for the most dangerous beings and home to the Goddess Nyx and God Erebus or Goddess of Night and God of darkness.
    Does that help to picture the nature of the world?

    • @BluesLoreCrumbs
      @BluesLoreCrumbs  Рік тому +2

      That's a very interesting analogy! Though, I'm curious, why are you separating the elemental realm from the light realm? Both names have been used interchangeably in game so far. Is it just because of the model, or is there another reason?

      @witchcandy3671 Рік тому +1

      @@BluesLoreCrumbs uggh, guess I rolled a 1 for the intelligence check, haha. The Elemental realm also being called the Light Realm is so confusing. I get the concept of the 7 elements being the 7 colors separated from light but my brain does this quirky thing of attaching underground/darkness to Vishap or dragon. Azhdaha originally having no eyes doesn't help either. So when I was trying to separate the 3 world's theory in my head I think one of my brain cells was double printed.
      To make matters worse I can't remember the 3rd realms name, was it simply called the Human realm I can't even remember atm? Somehow that sounds incorrect since humans didn't exist originally.

    My theory is that night mother is named from Greek mythology. Think about it what does PO and the travelers have in common they both have names from Greek mythology rather than gnostic. So it made me believe that all the descender have a Greek name. Also I think night mother name would be nyx. Nyx in Greek mythology is the literal counterpart of night mother. Also nyx's oldest child is aether the God of upper sky

    • @BluesLoreCrumbs
      @BluesLoreCrumbs  Рік тому +3

      My money is on Nyx for the role of night mother, for sure! However, depending on what version of the myth you go with, her connection to Phanes changes, but it's a constant, so I wonder what the implications for that would be!

    Enkanomiyan theory says the three realms have a 3 way symmetry not that the Abyss is opposite the Light realm or that the Abyss is opposite the Human realm / Celestia. We also get told of the three Divine forces first in Enkanomiya (ie Before Sun and Moon - Dragons/Vishaps, PO/Celestia and 2nd throne/Abyss). We get the three way symmetry from there. By contrast the Chasm has a narrative about opposites (2 forces) clashing. As a Divine force the Dragons don't feature much in the story so far, and seem presented like eg Native Americans in US history. Kind of an old but weak force that has it's wisdom and dignity but was beaten to the point of collapse by powerful new comers. You get Azhdaha and apparently this new dragon getting salty about the old days.
    On the Enkanomiyan view the so-called Dark Sea is in the Light Realm. Orobashi and others escape there from the Archon War. Orobashi finds the Coral Butterflies there doing their terraforming job and he grabs some and uses them to absorb coral that they seem to produce as a side effect of de-energizing the Light Realm energies and somehow he's able to graft the coral to his body and gain power through it. Oddly though he has little luck trying to splice the same coral to Vishaps later on. We see light sigils because Orobashi's into that stuff and drags some Coral Butterflies to Enka with him.
    So yes you can just walk (swim?) to the Light Realm the same as any other realm. But the story hardly ever mentions it. If a human fell into the Light Realm they'd just die (of too much elemental energy) so we can't rule out that such a thing is possible as happened to Ajax, though it does seem weird that the Light Realm is more toxic than the Abyss, doesn't it? The Abyss is more corrupting than killing?
    I don't think there is such a thing as a "light element". The Light Realm just has the ordinary elements at a higher intensity. There was no 8th nation before the PO arrived and no 8th dragon. The seven elements are colectively called the "great elements" or the "supreme elements" in the English translation. There may be lesser elments. But the supreme elements are the ones mentioned in - among other places - the spells cast by Hypostases and in Abyss Lectors' books, as well as that Hydro barrier on the house Mona now uses. The language used is Latin of course so there's plenty of alternatives in translation but it matches your concept of the elements being used by the PO / Abyss. Google "Text of Lector's book shows a mockery of Primordial One?"
    The Electro dragon was Kapatcir of course. "She" has memories of humans learning to use fire which places it before the 2nd throne and the gods came into being. "She" is no god and doesn't care about humans.
    Azhdaha says "he" is older than the oceans (about 4 billions years old on Earth for example) so does that mean Geo precedes Hydro? At any rate Azhdaha is plenty old enough to be a possible king dragon.
    Enjou seems human enough so I guess all those other Lectors and Heralds are humans too. The new boss has 4 arms so they are not strictly a human-like frame, though related. Probably a Seelie then. They definately don't look Vishap-like do they? And why would a Vishap talk about "records" when Vishaps don't read and write? Apocalypse = 2nd Divine War (PO vs 2nd throne). Seelies go bad so we expected to find Dark Seelies (Banshees) at some point. Sometimes the most ovious answer is right.

    Just wanted to point out one minor thing: The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles isn't necessarily the Heavenly Principles themselves. It's possible, yes, but it's equally as likely that the Heavenly Principles are composed of a number of beings, with the Sustainer being just one of them. We have no idea at all which of these two possibilities is actually the case (or if it's something entirely different that I can't even think of at the moment). We just lack too much information.
    If I personally had to place my bets, I'd say that the second of the possibilities that I mentioned is the case. After all, the Sustainer is not referred to as the Heavenly Principles themselves, but rather as the Sustainer of them. In other words, she seems to be a part of a whole, not the whole itself.
    That aside, the video gave me quite a few things to think about. I'm really looking forward to exploring 3.6's content when it eventually releases!
    Thanks for the hard work on your videos, it's very much appreciated! o7

    You forgot to mention that Our Sibling was summoned to khaenri'ah and clothar suggested our sibling brought many expectations to them(the khaenri'ah nobles) that they(the sibling) would save them, i think khaenri'ah did strike 1st by summoning a outlander like our sibling ,
    If it is like summoning in manga/anime then we might see our sibling being stuck to khaenri'ah because of the summoning pact
    2nd think to note is in we will be reunited trailer we see abyss mage talking about us traveler then lumine goes through memories of sustainer battle that means she forgot who she was and who is waiting for her
    3rd abyss seems to be something that resonates with our sibling and we the traveler resonates with light thus our powers to purify corrupted energy we also resist abyssal power to some extent this might mean we're bound to battle our sibling and dainsleif defeat them to save our sibling

      While Orobashi suffered the consequences for it, the people didn't, which is weird because if you think about Deshret, the forbidden knowledge he freed spread to the land itself, no one was left unscathed. I have a sneaking suspicious that the archon war was rigged and Orobashi was doomed to die from the beginning, which could explain this discrepancy. But that's a tin foil hat worthy speculation.

      I don't think so, there are more dragons then just the sovereigns. According to Azdaha's backstory, he was just a rock spirit stuck underground and blind, it was Rex Lapis that fashioned his body into a dragon. As for Dvalin we know he is pretty young in dragon terms. Shortly after Barbatos had established Mondstadt, a young and naive Dvalin descended from the skies, accidentally terrorizing the people of nation of freedom. So he is under 2000, roughly, it's safe to say he isn't a sovereign.
