The Complete Story of Gold and Gears (Honkai: Star Rail Lore)

  • Herta's new addition to the Simulated Universe- Gold and Gears presents its story in a very fragmented manner although from many different perspectives. This time the Aeon Nous, The Erudition plays a vital role in the story. Rubert plays a main role with its anti-organic equation. We also get a first look at the Aeon of Equilibrium HooH. After the Swarm Disaster, the IPC expanded rapidly across the universe. Here's my attempt at summarizing the story of Gold and Gears which involves the Aeon Mythus (The Enigmata), Aeon Fuli(The Remembrance) and Aeon HooH(The Equilibrium), Aha(The Elation) as well as three prominent IPC members and the Genius Society. I hope you enjoy the video :D

    I will say it again and again, the designs of each Aeons are top notched and otherworldly. Their designs pretty much outclasses the other deities in other Hoyoverse games. So far only three Aeons are left without designs, Akivili, Idrilla and Terminus. Hoping that we could see their images soon. I am excited how they will design Terminus since it's describe as "the shapeless prince"

      another example of the lore being flexible is that 'history is written by the victor' when you read any books in narukami island about orobashi, you would think that he was an evil god who started a war for no reason and endagered the people of narukami island. but only after reaching watatsumi and enkanomiya would you know that orobashi was actually a good god who cared for his people and sacrificed himself to save his people from celestia. this ia a case of the player not knowing the truth until it is revealed to him. another misconception is that AZDAHA was created by zhongli and the only proof we have for this is the cutscene in which the storyteller says that morax created a body for azdaha and gave him power but in the same cutscene zhongli only says that he gave eyes to azdaha to see the world, this is proven in enkanomiya with a book that mentions that vishaps lose their eyesight as they age and zhongli is the one who azdaha eyesight but his existence was long before zhongli. THE DEVS MAKE IT SO THAT YOU PERCIEVE IT DIFFERENTLY FROM DIFFERENT PEOPLE PERSPECTIVE WHICH MISLEADS YOU UNTIL YOU FIND THE TRUTH FOR YOUSELF. WHICH IS THE SAME IN HSR, MYTHUS IS CURRENTLY MISLEADING YOU AND IN THE FUTURE YOU CAN FIND OUT THE TRUTH FOR YOURSELF WHEN ALL IS REVEALED TO YOU, CUZ IT WILL BE REVEALED@@Kindi001

Imagine MHY do what you called "keep their lore flexible in genshin" by changing what happen in Tsurumi Island. is that change anything? is that will change what trully happen to Ruu? no Right? then its useless, Imersul its not a handy tool what so ever that you can use to change the past change. because Scaramouche already did that and nothing happen, the accident still happen, casuality still happen and nothing has been change base on the outcome.

    Here is your thinfolied hat because listen this theory is wild.
    9:54 - It's much affirmed that that Trailbrazer is variable, a unknown number in a equation that nobody seenms able to predict. Similar how the Traveller is a Descender, someone who posses the will to change, rival, sustain and create a world. And a Witness, someone who sustain and preserve history through their memories.
    This same too applies to the Trialbrazer, but with a little twist. While Calleus or Stelle are the ones who have the ability to choose, is the Stellaron that allows to back it such power of change, and break said pretermined fate. Since the beginning of the story, the Stellaron has been mentioned through different characters, pieces of lore, related with factions and even part of the worlds's history.
    It's highly possible that Stellaron's chaotic power is what allow such drastical changes. Why? Simple, Stellaron aren't cancer of worlds but actually, a imaginary power that is capable of granting wishes that can change entire lives, bestow power and a link to the Aeons. However, due it still unknown nature, the results are often disastrous.
    And here is the proof, mentioned a little list.
    + Alisa Rand used the Stellaron to summon the Eternal Freeze to save Belebog from destruction. And yet it also doomed the entire world in a freeze era.
    + The Ambrosial Tree was able to grow back again thanks to the Stellaron.
    + When the Trailbrazer was stabbed by the Lance of Preservation, this caused for the Stellaron to resonate and allow the Trailbrazer to gain a new Path.
    + When the Trailbrazer caught Nanook's gaze, the Stellaron replied to their wish to defeat the beast. However, this also caused them to go haywire with their power.
    + The Stellaron also offered glimpses of future to the Trailbrazer while they were floating around the plane.
    + Cocolia has been hearing "voices" from the Stellaron, therefore is possible that can be living beings.
    + Even Nanook before being an Aeon had touched an Stellaron.
    *TLDR:* Long story short, every form of unpredictable event, was or will be linked through the Stellaron.

      @@theofficialclownhq with how Enigmata's "purpose" is to keep things within an enigma, I wouldn't be surprised if it is. Maybe it's also Equilibrium's work to keep _something_ balanced, which influenced Enigmata. Since Stellaron is a very inexplicable, erratic, and unreadable thing, maybe it was to balance something so predetermined and set in stone.
      My wildest theory is that it's something that has to do with Finality--because even though finality is, well, final, there will be some people who will try to go against how the "final moment" was supposed to play out. My other wild, baseless theory is maybe Elio is linked to Finality, and that's why he's trying to hunt the stellaron as an unpredictable factor X in "fate".

    We got TWO massive aeon lore drops in all of version 1. I really hope version 2 will also feature 2 SU updates with 2 new aeons we're tracking. With the introduction of Argenti my guess would be that Idrila's next with information about the Mirror Holders. And hopefully we also get Ena and Xipe's aeonic lore now that we're heading into Penacony.

      Nah, based on the aeon order from index, Xipe is listed after Nous which mean we will most likely going to learn more about Pencony history in the next SIMU expansion (which align well with the fact that 2.0 updates from onward will mainly be about Penacony).

    Love to see people not playing whale simulator in GnG and actually make videos on lore.
    Also this was a lot more to digest compared to Swarm Disaster.
    Maybe, just maybe, Preservation is not as good it appears to be. I mean it's whole idea is to preserve everything in the universe, that might also include preserving the chaos and destruction (not completely the path) and IPC is like the perfect front for that, since it can simultaneously play as the bad guys and the saviours.
    Also, i think the anti-organic equation playes a big role and has influenced Nous significantly which might be why it can never truly account of Trailblazer and their actions cause they are not organic or inorganic... like they have a flesh and blood but their life and soul is through a stellaron and they aren't exactly an android-ish entity like Xueyi, who happenes to have a past and thus can be predicted by Nous and such.
