Man, I got really emotional when Eido started talking about how the eliksini thought guardians and humans were unkillable monsters for a long time. But then they saw us making awkward small talk and they realized we were just as scared and confused as they were.
Just the mental image of our fellow guardians awkwardly talking and cooing at the smollen from a distance makes my eyes start to act up ;)
How the eliksni see us : unkillable gods of war
How we are: * Razor plays bass for everyone * * backflips * * is disappointed *
I actually regarded a pair of Eliksni in the Tower Annex as cute because they were trying to figure out a vending machine. Also, one of those two had hatchlings.
@@Techhunter_Talon they're teaching the hatching a how to work the vending machine.
Dont forget them seeing Saint-14 as a bloodthirsty monster.
@@Techhunter_Talon where the HELL are those two? I'm taking a selfie with them as soon as humanly possible now
Ever since the sun disappeared, everyone realizes zavala doesn't pay the electric bill.
Epeleptic players are just dead now
The eliksni definitely are trying to figure put how the systems of the tower work....
Kinda eerie if you really think about the season so far and what the future war cult said
Servitors mining Ether(eum) takes too much electric power.
@@SpaghettiTop nah, that crazy exo's cappin'
@@63Limar now I'm imagining crypto currency mining in destiny. Some names like "Lightcoin" probably
Lakshmi better watch her back or she's gonna end up as Gunsmith Materials by season's end.
Trigger happy guardians who can’t seem to remember what the fallen have done, tend to go missing around these parts.
@@RebelOfTheNorm242
I don’t see what’s the problem with Lakshmi is
She was right about the red war
And all she did was say there was eliksni
Easy there. I stand ready to defend our new Eliksni allies from any who may wish to do them harm. But if they tread the dark path, and come to betray us, may the Traveler have mercy on them in my stead.
The fact that we have been able to foster this peace at all is testament to the potential for there to be peace between the City and the Eliksni. Lakshmi-2 seeks to defend the city from a threat she has forseen. But the potential remains that her efforts to prevent the Eliksni's "betrayal" will be the true betrayal that brings that future to reality.
Back when the Fallen first came to the system, imagine how they would have felt. Their God, the Great Machine, had left them to burn and die. And then it replaced them. They came here with nothing but what they had on their ships. And they did terrible things to us, the usurpers, their replacements. Who wouldn't have? Now we stand as two peoples that looked up to the Traveler and lost everything. And we're no saints ourselves. But do not force them to bear the weight of sins they did not commit, unless you are willing to bear the sins of your brothers, sisters, and forefathers alongside them.
Before we start pointing fingers and drawing lines, let's see how the Eliksni settle in. And until they give me a reason not to, I will welcome them with open arms.
@@thesaucecollector8921 Except she will pop a vex portal in the middle of the botza district to kill them off. In reality she is actually fulfilling the very prophecy she is trying to avoid. Theres a datamined event that is called "Override: Last City" and based from the datamined quotes, its seems fallen npcs actually fight with us in the background.
There was eliksni sure, but she cannot see the fact that they actually fight WITH humans, not against them. The vision was fulfilled, but she never realized its from her own hand.
@@Cpt_John_Price
I don’t Really trust data mined things
It’s so sweet that Mithrax named his daughter after Sjur. The once enemy that must have become a friend.
speaking of which, what ever happened to that fireteam of his at 6:37 ????
you'd think they would be a part of his council or advisors on how to make this work, but no mention of them. makes me wonder if he really is mithrax or not!
@@keronstewart9446 Maybe they're on a vanguard mission
@@roberttheronin9803
i have my doubts about that. so far, mithrax havent mentioned them at all.
which means its either
A) something happen for them to part ways
or B) that splicer isn't the real mithrax!
@@keronstewart9446 ...why would he?
So far that I've seen, everything in the Eliksni Quarter is so incredibly wholesome. I'll defend it to my final death.
Watch where you step gurdian, I've seen fallen eat our children alive. And the traveler can be as elusive as the Darkness. Their allegiance lays with the Traveler, not us.
@@SpaghettiTop brb eating your child
@@puppythegooby what a flex
@@SpaghettiTop I don't trust any Eliksni to do anything but protect *their* best interests.
If they could sell us out to the Vex to get the traveler back they would.
@@SpaghettiTop NEVER the children. Just the adults they managed to kill. All's fair in war, right? :)
I don't know if you saw, But FWC's Shotgun called The Deicide, it's lore tab contains binary code found in the tower's systems. The binary is musical notes. Savathun's Song.
Oh no...
First the skull near Shaxx, now this..
Yeah it’s also been implied that everyone in the tower is infected by Savarhuns song. Given that Lakamishi, Crow, and several others have been heard singing the song or tune or in Crows case whistling it.
I really think Mithrax is the “Kell of Kells” prophecy, he’s going to be the one if anyone to reunite the eliksni with the traveler and restore them to grace.
They’re my boys, my lads, and if Lakshmi touches them, I’m pulling out my Last Word, and sending her to Oryx in oblivion.
EDIT: Guys, guys, you can all turn Lakshmi into scrap metal.
Lakshmi is like the Pythia from ancient Greece (aka Oracle of Delphi) and her words should be taken with sacks worth of salt.
We’ll just make another weapon out of her scrapped exo parts
@@iLLSH0T619 better yet, yet the Fallen get their hands of her...or...what remains.
oh if Lakshmi touches them, Imma take my Lumina and blast her to bits.
@@Marine_Animations why not use Outbreak perfected on her?
Imagine Empress Caitl is gonna interact with the Eliksni camp? That would be wild
The plot twist of the century would be if the Eliksni, cabal, and humanity were peaceful to each other.
@@cgaming1107 The best way to unify old enemies is to give them a new, common enemy. The Darkness more than fits that bill.
@@cgaming1107 My idea is later down the line in the season the cabal will finally come to some sort of agreement with the guardians to work together after realizing the threat present in the vex network causing the endless night is a hive related one.
The most likely candidate for the enemy that joins all races together in game that’s hive related would be the notorious Quria, Blade Transform which has the dreaming city in a curse loop as well as the last city on earth being plunged into an endless night because of it aswell, Quria being seen already in game says this might just be right. The cabal and the fallen might work together to rebuild the Botza Ruins to make it more liveable for the both of them while preparing for the oncoming conflict in witch queen meanwhile the humans in the city are against the changes.
From what we’ve seen so far its likely lakshmi will be pushing the humans towards hating the peace we’ve found between fallen in this season so I can’t wait to see how things develop from here. It would be nice to see a progressing fallen/cabal location we can transmat too or possible vendors of that race at that location in the future.
She’s babysitting some hatchlings.
@@s.i.v.a1232 have you seen the lore on the heavy machine gun Shattered Cipher? Fallen/human relations in that... aren’t the best ;(
Fallen in the tower. One step closer to being able to use a fallen guardian.
After this season I hope we can, hell I'd pay for it if I had to I wanna be able to crawl at people like a spider and scare the hell out of em
Yes, dat would be awesome. We should push be able to hold 2 guns since we have 4 arms.
4th Guardian slot
@@brunoderproll7958 the eliksny in the scourge of the past camp says that they never had ressurections. Or might have been mithrax. Cant remember which one
I think that will never happen
Day 1 of thanking byf. Thank you for the lore byf
Thank you byf
Thank you lore daddy
Thanks for everything you do, Byf!
Byf
We need to thank him for all this work he’s doing lately
Byf in the Eliksni quarters, Eido was talking about how some guardians use their light ineffectively in stuff like gambit or crucible and that if they were given such power they would probably use it better than us. It made me wonder, is this a foreshadowing? Will we see Eliksni guardians in the future? To be honest I doubt that and it would be almost impossible to make one as a playable character. Because it would have to be captain-sized and all that. But it would be fascinating to read about an Eliksni wielding Light.
I'm inclined to entertain such possibilities but bungie gonna need to add three or more character slots just so we don't have to erase our old one's.
I would love to have a playable Eliksni character but that would require them to make a whole new player model and either adjust armor and maybe weapons or just give them a whole new sandbox.
Btw I noticed something while searching the eliksni quarters. There are some of those doors with black smoke that the enemies come out. I found 2 of them. I think we will see some enemies in there. Soon...
@@theredkitsune5818 If they were going that far, playable Cabal would be neat, too.
The lore tab of Shattered Cipher is a goddamn gut punch. Sincerely hope it gets mentioned.
Also, show of hands: Who wants to give Lakshmi-2 a taste of Stasis, Solar, Void and Arc?
It hurts even more when you read Gifts from the Shore and the lore tab for Chroma Rush.
Any one able to give a tldr for these lore tabs? I'm not the best at getting lore tabs lmao
Thomas Howard Hey, you forgot the other element, Pysical. There are different types of the element Pysical, like bullet (rifle, submachine gun, shotgun etc.) arrow, fusion shot, linear fusion shot, rocket, grenade, sword, melee attack (punch, knife, force/slap), hit while holding objects.............yeah, there won't be much left of her after using Pysical.
@@justinchalifoux4424 Basically an Eliksni arrives in the Last City, giving Amanda and Saint supplies Crow stole from the Spider, and tries out some spicy ramen. That's the lore tab from Gifts from the Shore and Chroma Rush. Shattered Cipher's lore tab has a daughter asking her mon and dad what they did since in their trash pile is the temporary visit badge the Eliksni wore, implying they killed the poor guy.
@@justinchalifoux4424 I can.
So, starting off with the Gifts from the Shore, an Eliskni delivers crates stolen from Spider by the Crow to Amanda Holiday. When she hears about the Spider, Amanda calls him something...insulting, which she tells the poor innocent Eliskni that it's a compliment.
In the Chroma Rush lore tab, that same Eliskni goes to a Raman Bar to sample the local delicacies. Everyone in the Bar is frozen with fear, but the Bartender works through the fear and serves the Eliskni. He is grateful, but uses the insult Amanda used as a compliment.
And finally, Shattered Cipher. A woman is looking for her mother in a deserted part of the City, and finds her in a ruined house with a few others. There's a large hole in the wall, with a blue liquid spilled onto the floor, and one of them is carrying a large bag. From the context of the Lore tab, it's seems that the group killed that same Eliskni.
It would be so dope to see Destiny end in a giant war with us, eliksni, and cabal on one side. Darkness and whoever else (hive,vex,taken) on the other
I have a feeling that will be the premise of Witch Queen and Lightfall
Vex would be fighting both sides
@@gektoast4968 well if we kill savathun who would be the next big bad? I mean she has an impact on all destiny events after oryx that what darkness related minus Clovis
Also there are the fallen as well and red legion traitors
@@thunderlord6250 i forget, does Caitl and her Cabal still call themselves the “Red Legion”?
I thought that name was only for Ghauls group
The moment where he said the children of both races together my cuteness meter went to the MAXIMUM! I can picture a moment like that and I love it! Side thought: maybe Mithrax is going to be the prophesized Kell of Kells, but its still too early to tell.
Pretty sure he doesnt aspire to such thing rn. Which in a Kell its a first. He seems to want just a refuge for the open minded Eliksni, not a full on control over all the Fallen. Thats something which could actually make him a great Kell as well.
@@gabrielpineirogarcia2078 "Great leaders do not seek to lead instead leadership is thrust upon them." - .... I forget who.
His ambition is even greater than to be a Kell. He is a Kell of a house he started. He seeks peace with the Fallen's enemy for hundreds of years and seeks to serve the Great Machine alongside the deathless. All this while staying humble. I'll side with him over Lakshmi if it comes to it.
Misraaks is far and away one of, if not my favorite Destiny character. He's even passed Cayde-6 for me. He is willing to change. Willing to trust. Although, I must say, I grow increasingly worried as time goes on. I fear that by the end of the season, the fear and unrest will do irreparable damage to this alliance. I could honestly see someone, be it Lakshmi-2 or even Lord Saladin putting a bullet in Misraaks, only to have the Traveler return him to life, or save his life.
I worry that Lakshmi and Ikora have forgotten the expression "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" While I appreciate and enjoy that we have welcomed the Eliksni into the City, I feel that they should have been placed into a more remote location. Having a centuries-old enemy living within our walls will not sit well with some people.
As long as Misraaks is willing to stand alongside us under the Traveler, I will stand alongside him no matter the odds. We finally have a chance for peace, and I hope we will not be blinded by past sins to truly consider this opportunity. Now, with that being said, if the Eliksni do betray us, unprovoked, may the Traveler have mercy on them in my stead...
I’d like an in depth look at the exact mechanics of splicing. If you read the lore on it, splicing isn’t just about just knowing a lot about machines like a mechanic or knowing how to implant cybernetics like a doctor. It sounds like Splicers are able to weave the Light (despite not being Lightbearers) and use it to rewrite reality to a limited degree. It’s really cool!
Splicers are just Destiny's version of the Mechanicus
@@madmohawk6560 Except they are actually competent, aren't assholes, and have actual supernatural powers rather than just not understanding what a computer is.
Could we get a long video about the Eliksni, their history and origins as we know them, and their culture? I'm INTENSELY interested in that, especially with YOUR narration.
I belive byf made a series of videos a while back about all the alien species and their relevant history, including the eliskni.
Destiny has such a cool world, i'm so glad Bungie have started focusing more on storytelling
Last time I was this early the battle of 6 fronts had just started
Lol the last time you where this early was when u were born
Last time you were early was week 2 of D1.
You were so early that nobody understood your value.
Please come back to us🥲
@@sylokthedefiled Wish granted
@@AxisChurchDevotee oh shit I forgot about this comment😂
Last time I was this early for a byf video, the wolves were still bowing to Mara Sov
"What is house light and where did it come from?" Well it all started when -the House of Wolves broke their sworn vows of loyalty and service to Mara Sov and slaughtered the Awoken in cold blood- Mithrax ended up on titan.
I'm as excited for cool aliens in the tower as the next guy but people forget about this stuff. Love Lakshmi or hate her she didn't make up her disdain for the Eliksni out of thin air.
(I trust Mithraks but proper reconciliation needs to be more tactful than Ikora deciding on behalf of everyone to welcome House Light inside the walls with open arms. And then putting Saint of all people in charge of welcoming them)
@@AugustusBohn0 Was expecting a House of Light Eliksni settlement in the Last City to be a thing after the end of the season.
@@AugustusBohn0 the main difference is that house of wolves was full of warriors, while house of light is rather a house of refugees.
@@63Limar I mean, they are made up of the same Fallen. These refugee fallen didn't just appear out of nowhere.
@@bengale9977 Refugees usual arent combatants . A freaking army and a bunch of farmers(or whatever the eliksni equivalent is) arent exactly the same thing
Maaaaaaan, the machine gun Shattered Cipher made me depressed as shit. It’s the fact that shit like... THAT has probably happened in real life just makes the situation worse.
May the Light provide peace, brothers and sisters, and let us fight as hard as possible for that peace.
The electricity went out where I live and I needed something to watch

*My Hunter approaches the group of civilians mentioned in Shattered Cipher machine gun* "I have met monsters, slain gods and communed with paracausal entities from the beginning of time.

Amen to that brother, amen. We Guardians protect the innocent regardless of species, human or Eliksni.
@@carloseot5548 If we can turn our ceasefire with the Cabal into an alliance of equals and nurture our relationship with Eliksni we could perhaps wipe two enemy races off the board leaving us with the Vex, Hive and whatever fights in the name if the Darkness.

“Docking is savage” - My name is Byf 2021
Byf when you first come to the settlement where the house of light is.. there are a few scannable items around you may find interesting... no idea if you found them all, there are like 7
seeing the fallen in the town is nuts, like how long and how many times did the guardians fight /specifically/ to prevent the fallen-err-Eliksini from getting into the last city? whenever I would imagine an OC for destiny I always imagined they had managed to gather a small group of Eliksini to fight with and for them, hell, I imagined that they even managed to get a ketch as their home away from tower. knowing some of the lore for the Eliksini always made me feel bad for fighting them and I'm happy that allying with them is an option now. The Cabal are a harder sell for allying for me though ngl.
As long as Guardians can crush anything in their path, any allies can be made! If they backstab us, we break their backs! I have to agree though that Caiatl is a lot less trustworthy than Mithrax purely because of how we’ve met them recently.
@@Glucoseus the rounds fired from my barrel will leave those who betray us on the floor.
@@thejadedrabbitTJR Very good, my friend!
Anyone else notice how the “guardian warding glyph” in the new fallen camp kinda looks like Saint 14?
The Eliksni and the Whirlwind they experienced is an interesting story. It makes me wonder just how many civilizations uplifted by the Traveler experienced horrific collapses at the hands of the Darkness. Personally I would love to see a future Destiny take us to the Riis System to discover what has happened there since the Whirlwind. I can see a sequel taking place centuries after the end of this current era, where humans, Cabal and Eliksni have rebuilt the Sol System together and created a new golden age for our civilizations, but the Eliksni still mourn the loss of their home and continue to listen for any signals which might come from there. Then one day they pick up a signal... "Help".
So a massive starship is built using human, Cabal and Eliksni technology and launched to the Riis System. Upon arriving in the outer edge of the system, the Guardians hop from planet to planet, making their way to Riis itself. The starship would serve as a "Tower" for the players to deploy from. I like the idea of playing as a new Guardian, once risen post-Darkness Conflict who has not experienced true war. Like our current Guardian hearing stories of the Dark Age and the various wars fought during it, the new Guardian would hear tales of Destiny 1 and 2. Our current Guardian can cameo as Vanguard Commander who remains on Earth and appears after the starship establishes communications with Earth after arrival to the Riis System.
Honestly get so emotional over this storyline, I love Mithrax and our fallen allies so much! Imagine if the traveler ends up accepting The house of Light and we get fallen guardians 😭
I desperately want you to talk about the lore tabs from things like Retrofuturist. There’s a gaggle of sources that all point to savathuns presence in the city and I would love to hear your theory crafting on who she may be impersonating

Imagine a high school where students have easy access to huff ether.
yeah and i could just tell people i was eliksni to justify my ether addiction. good times.
You do realise you're talking about Eliksni hormones?
Eliksni have always been my favorite. I got my Prison of Elders rank as high as I could back in D1 just so that I could represent with the fallen-themed armor and weapons and my allegiance to Variks. I’ve been repping tangled web armor with my closest approximation to Judgement colors since Forsaken. Hell, me and a friend made an Eliksni subreddit and Discord.
The point I’m getting at is that the fallen and humanity are in the same boat, and it’s about damn time we have some formalized cooperation. Thank you for making this video
I'm sorry but I couldn't keep straight face when you were talking about docking lmao
When Saint-14 says you're taking your dislike of the Eliksni too far........
Dammit, Lakshima
This season has been very intriguing so far. Can't wait to see where it goes.

Byf you should be rewarded for the amount of work you’ve been doing lately
Variks, mithrax and his house are cool with me.

@@Sejikan its from the gambit smg
Saw someone comment this on Instagram but it’s a statement I agree with: if the future war cult messes with my bois then imma make them the past war cult
I think this is a wonderful story being told, as mentioned by Holliday back in the season of the Chosen "if we kill them we lose what's most important, our humanity" and whilst paraphrased and directed at the Cabal, it is showing a great example of the opportunity to save those who have lost more than us. Hopefully this season brings some compelling thought to what it means to be human, and just how far our empathy can stretch. "True courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one."- Gandalf
I’ve got a theory:
The HELM is a giant ship that will help evacuate the people of the City when the pyramid ships arrive in Lightfall (or in Witch Queen). It’ll be part of a mass exodus like we’ve read about in some lore entries.
Hey byf you know how you did a entire history of destiny then entire darkness history
Can you do one of those for eliksni as well? I think it'll be good for newer players to have you tell the story

Last time was this early, the Hive were still the Krill.
The fact that the fallen were genuinely flourishing with the traveler and were considered noble is crazy. Like the traveler abandoning them turned them into brute monsters. I’m glad destiny is giving more depth the villains because honestly it makes sense that the cabal and fallen all hate the hive and darkness and joining up with guardians is the best way to go. I hope that in the next dlcs we join forces with them to fight new enemies. I also love that the fallen weren’t just attacking humanity to be evil ass holes but based off of survival and in war there are more then one view point. The fallen were starving to death and becoming desperate to survive.
In the Fallen camp, you can see Dregs on the beds and their lower arms are growing back. It's very cool
i love that especially in a game like destiny, they're subtly commenting on current anxieties and fears felt globally that have developed over the last few years. an impending, existential threat, unlikely allies coming together in peace, learning to understand people's of different backgrounds and cultures; maybe soon we all will be able to have some semblance of comfort w those around us. we really need it nowadays
BYF, Thank you. As someone who had been dipping in and out of Destiny till Beyond light came around, your many videos have been such an interesting & pleasant way to pick up on much of the lore, it has been a significant binge and I have much more to go -- but so worth it, had I found this channel earlier, and the story for more involved than I imagined for a "space fantasy shooter" I'd have been hooked years ago...
Allying with the eliksni and cabal against the darkness is the bomb logic way of fighting the sword logic.
Thanks for all the great content with the end of last season and the content for season of the Splicer! Glad you are also resting when needed! We support you Byf!
Byf, i really really really love the Mithrax story and the focus on House of Light. that is all
Today I started to hear “Hope for the Future”. A curious fact that I learned reading the comments on the official video is that according to lore: Brother Vance wrote this song.
DIOOOOOO
Yes, Brother Vance wrote that song in the lore. Extra fun fact, Vance was voiced by Marty O'Donnell's dad Bob O'Donnell (Marty did the music for the Halo games and the original soundtrack Music Of The Spheres for D1 before he left Bungie, and Music Of The Spheres includes Hope for the Future).
Awesome video as always, thanks a 1,000,000 Byf.
Please-please-please continue/finish the Clovis Bray series, that (scary) man and part of human history in D2 fascinates me.
Thanks again.
When you said fallen commonly practice 'docking' I nearly spat out my drink
ever since learning about the whirlwind I feel bad about fighting and killing Eliksni outside of House Salvation.
It’s interesting; humanity has cooperated with 3/4 of the (main)enemy races in Sol. The fallen via the house of light, the vex during the taken war, and the cabal via Calus. Savathun seems to have enough of an open mind to consider allying with the guardians against the dark-though she almost certainly would have ulterior intentions. I never would’ve imagined this being possible when I started playing D1.
the 'tranquillity' in the background is the best song you could have chosen for this topic
I'd love to talk politics with Eido, to explain Guardian and Human culture, and perhaps learn more of our four-armed reptilian friends and their cultures
they are not reptilian they are better defined as insect-like because of their anatomy. Reptilians are rather slippery and snake-like. I am actually trying to think of an insect with a hard shell with soft parts inside. Think of them as spiders with crab or shrimp qualities. (hard outer shell and soft insides) But they also have an inner skeleton that crabs and shrimps don't have.
@@honourwhitehill5918 the Eliksni are more "crab-like" then insect like. Hive are more insect like.
@Lick Tasty I love that description XD
@@honourwhitehill5918 fair enough. It has been a while since I've done anything biology related, so thank you for the correction :p
Maybe not you considering you can’t even spell Guardian
It’s a fragile relationship and Bungo can do so much with it! Makes me hyped for the future.
Hope you have a great day Byf! Thank you for the lore!
We need a cutscene where either we, or we see a guardian walking through the city, seeing juman children and eliksni hatchlings running around playing games and having fun. It would a perfect way to show that we are moving forward, uniting under the Light, rather than the banner of our species
BYF i'm a new player, i started in the middle of the season of the hunt, can you make a video about factions, i don't know nothing about them or Lakshmi-2. Thanks and keep up the great work mate!!!
Lakshmi is a typical politician. She seeks power and therefore conflict over peace. She only stays relevant if there is an enemy to fight.
The FWC shotgun, the deicide has a lore tab with binary which plays savathuuns song
I wonder if any real life event inspired this story cuz guardians and fallen coming together like the cabal last season this is awesome please keep it up byf
Hey Byf, something interesting I haven't seen anyone else mention, is Crown-Splitter's new lore tab, implying that the reissued version is actually Sloane's sword, stolen by a rogue mover clearing her apartment after her presumed death.
All those lore items in the Eliksni camp were so well done and such an unexpected surprise
Fallen: I receive a home to crash
You receive the light turned back on
Also one last thing. Are you ever going to do an in depth lore on the guns? I can’t believe it but the last three seasons have ACTUALLY done the impossible: it’s made me look into the lore in the guns lmao.
When you mentioned that the usual eliksni height was that of a captain then maybe Eramis was vying for something like that since when we fought he she wasn’t that tall in comparison to skolas and other kells we’ve fought against but then again it may be due to male and female eliksni biology
Idk about anyone else rn, but i wouldn't mind finishing up some loose ends from the past season while we wait for more lore from this season to put into the videos. Also maybe some lore on the factions for people who never played D1 or D2 vanilla, atleast for Lakshmi so they know what her deal is and who she is.
keep doing what you doing Byf.. class content as always... much love
All of it Byf, we want all of the videos, including more tslayp please
they've gone from techno spider pirates to techno spider samurai
Looking forward to when Byf covers the lore from the new weapons that talks about some of the human citizens "taking matters into their own hands". Paranoid father that finds himself standing in the garden late at night, thinking his child is a Fallen peering through the window of his house, and a (presumably) young girl finding herself in one of the abandoned houses with her mother and some others having attacked at least one of the Eliksni that tried to get away only for a man to chase after it. Not to mention Arrha, one of Spider's associates that we already know by name, infiltrating the House of Light encampment. If I had to guess, Spider's people are probably where the "Fallen standing amidst the City on fire" Lakshmi-2 saw in her visions came from.
holy cow use your super, i knew i wasn't going crazy thinking people were holding onto their supers during override.
Not gonna lie.
Seeing the Eliksni in their habitat was sobering.
So many had their limbs docked. Walking around with my Gun out and up felt really...wrong. At least, to me.
Byf, I NEED you to cover the lore tabs for the Lightkin armor from this season!
I was so ready to have the fallen at our side when you talked about the house of light earlier but that now it already feels wrong to go into a strike and kill fallen there
Couldn't concentrate. Goku comming out the healing pod realizing he can beat Freeza tranquility background music at 7:26 busting focus.
Came here after seeing the leaked cutscene, can't wait to see where this goes
When talking to a friend about the differences between Eliksni and Humanity we actually discussed how humans seem super complex while the Eliksni seem to be very tribal in nature, and very dependent on structure. If it possible that humanity was chosen by the Traveler as it's last stand because we are so complex and intricate on an individual level? The Eliksni worship the great machine and show some distain for how we use the Light and distrust the Traveler, but maybe those traits are what the Traveler values. Not a following of a species but a set of individuals that are so independent that we can and will fight the Darkness even without the Gardener.
Please continue the Trials stuff, that story has been so interesting. Also take a peek at the Sojourn shotgun from this season. It's a neat interaction from Spider
I can't wait for Byf review the shotgun lore tab about the crow. That had me dying! Straight up hilarious 😂. If y'all haven't read it. Y'all gotta read the Sojourner's Tale lore tab. Having a bad day. Read it to get some lol
The lore for this season is amazing. I like it better than last.
I am just getting back into d2 along with many other friends, i would be your biggest fan if you could do a quick recap of whats happened in all these story heavy seasons. Glad that vog is the first season im back!
I dont know if eliksni guardians have ever been talked about but I feel it could be interesting and I think that this is where we might be headed this season.
I wouldn't say no to a video about the Eliksni settling into the City, such as Mithrax's talk with Shaxx in the Survivor's Epitaph lore, or Drifter getting a crowd of people to back off in the Borrowed Time lore.
Mostly though, I'd love a video covering the Soujourner's Tale lore. I burst into laughter reading that XD
I would love a review of what we learned in the Eliksni quarter. After your recent video, I went there myself to hear what Eido had to say. Some really interesting stuff and I'd love any further insight you could give. The eliksni have always been my favorite alien race in Destiny and I've been dreaming about an alliance with them for a long time. Which means 1) I am so happy to finally be able to live and work alongside eliksni. Some of their animations in the tower are pretty funny, like the 2 investigating a vending machine outside Ada-1's area. Go say hi to them if you haven't. And 2) I am always ready for lore on these allied eliksni. Especially because some of the things Eido says are things I never thought about before this point. For instance, the strange symbol just across from where the house banner is. I'm not gonna spoil it here for those that want to go hear it for themselves, but that one hit particularly hard
It's because stories like this, that I'm a destiny fan. Their lore and storytelling abilities are amazing. I only wish more of it was put into the actual game so that more people would know these things.
I find it funny that Eido, the Scribe of Light, and Eramis shared the same voice actor until the season of the Plunder.
More Eliksni vids please, The lore tabs about Eliksni in the city are really cool.
(Really curious if bungie could tell us a reason why an Eliksni would like to fight in iron banner though that one was kinda weird)
Also this season makes me feel all kinds of weird as I really hate Lakshmi 2 right now, Yet I love the voice actor.
The size disparity and the fact that ether can be drained from eliksni is probably how they got such a brutal hierarchy. I'd imagine everyone was Kell size on riis. That also makes killing dregs so much worse because that's like their toddler morph or whatever
I think it's more akin to cretinism.
Stunted growth - both physical and cognitively - due to malnutrition - specificaly in the case of true cretinism severe iodine deficiency during pregnancy.
In europe it was very prevelant in the alpine region, as one of the best natural iodine sources is seafood.
@@Bird_Dog00 I don't think nonkells or captains are less intelligent, just perpetually exhausted. The cryptolyth books show that the dreg woman was incredibly intelligent, but she was just exhausted. Keep people starving and they won't have the energy to revolt
@@thefatherinthecave943
Certainly possible.
Cretinism is simply the closest analogy I can think off.
It's about the basic mechanism, that strikes me as similar, the exact symptoms can vary ofc.
I personally would love to see a DSC lore video but I know that is definitely a large undertaking as it is a raid so I will continue to patiently wait
I'd like to see a dive into Lakshmi's vision of Missracks in the city as it burns.
