God dammit

#

We can trigger the secret Fruma pacifist route by intentionally just not killing any of the Sovereigns, quest minibosses and in-map human mobs for the entire time you’re in there

warm flicker
dim plover
#

Like, after 3 or so minutes of not attacking the bosses they will speed up
5 minutes of not attacking they will end the fight with new dialogue

snow kiln
dim plover
#

Do this for all the quests and the Sovereigns will live and you befriend them

#

The Queen also recognizes your alliance and gains the courage to come out to the group

Not like, as being polyamorous or anything I mean as Anathema we all just misinterpreted her

snow kiln

#

What if the reason why Anathema didn’t chose us if canonically the player is straight 😔

dim plover
#

Or am I missing smth here

frozen turtle

Woman can be straight

I have the solution. Just simply make characters aroace

Like half of it anyway

The doomed half

frozen turtle
#

i wonder how much money Wynn could make if they made yaoi and yuri ranks

#

and the ranks just add more yaoi/yuri content

five trillion dollars

if they add those ranks i want a cut of the profits

The other third are ambiguous

I CANT THROW THE BRICK

im stuck on this part 😭

#

nothings happening and when i press shift i cant leave either

#

CINEMA

#

i wish they blocked out the map and coords tho

#

😭

#

wait i just realized, is she the first known mf to recover memories without the help of tech?

mossy badge
#

Its wonntils anyway, the server cant do shit about it

mossy badge
narrow kestrel
#

dramatic ahh

#

dying instantly after recovering your memories

#

😭

#

i thought we'd have to fight the inquisitors again atleast

#

and she'd die from that

young dock
#

Sometimes old folks use the last of their energy for one good day

split night
# mossy badge WE are the tech, surely

I imagine we share our power with her just for a moment to recover her memories

like we can see the past multiple time, this might show that we can also share this power to other

narrow kestrel
#

so does syndra's corpse have a chance of dropping from the fruma raid or

split night
narrow kestrel
#

also fuck i need to do one more quest to level up to 119

#

Sometimes they’ll experience one day of energy, like an oasis in a mind of fog

Then pass away the day after

#

About memories, what happened to ||the original corkians after they escaped?|| Did they remember fruma?

#

I cant remember hearing much from them about the place

paper wyvern
mystic fulcrum
#

but the air balloon only have a few people on it, did they just breed and increase the population till city of corkus can be created?

dim plover
full jackal
full jackal
paper wyvern
full jackal
#

or what if you haven’t done the quest

paper wyvern
full jackal
paper wyvern
#

Also the simple reason is there's no other good explanation for secret discoveries

full jackal
#

but yea they must’ve f[[MeCHAniCAL ErrOr]]cked like crazy

mystic fulcrum
full jackal
#

no i mean like

#

after aUnexDepa

#

some more people from the ocean or gavel or wynn likely also came to corkus after hearing about it or smth

full jackal
hybrid gazelle
#

there 0 fucing way

#

that they can ahve second balloon after that

#

so yes

full jackal
#

though in aUnexDepa there was only one, maybe there were more and just offscreen

hybrid gazelle
#

people just repopulate after

#

there 0 fucking way Fruma gonna let that happen the second time

paper wyvern
#

Yeah I think corkus is a bit messy cause they retconned it forward 200 years

full jackal
#

no i mean like two or more in a row

hybrid gazelle
#

there also no way that there are more balloon being build

#

cosnider how expensive making one already for rough workers

mystic fulcrum
#

they should change the balloon to air ship, so this make more sense

hybrid gazelle
#

and even more so trying to get multiple balloons underneath a literal hut base LOL

#

nah

#

airship would not work too

#

like it fine

#

it just suspension of belief

full jackal
#

okay but like how do you repopulate from like 10 people without being habsburg inbred

hybrid gazelle
#

0 idea

#

again

#

suspension of belief

full jackal
#

Some more people mustve came after the Corkians arrived from the ocean or smth

#

like not from fruma

#

though also at that time the oceans hadn’t been calmed yet

#

so… actually itd be reallyy hard to get to corkus by sea

mystic fulcrum
#

maybe could add a secret discovery about cokian submarine that help people escape to corkus

full jackal
#

corkian submarine???

vestal rivet
#

have you seen the hot air balloon discovery in the roughworks by chance

mystic fulcrum
#

yea, since there is no way other balloon can fly pass fruma border without being shot down

full jackal
vestal rivet
frozen turtle
#

yeah i was about to say

mystic fulcrum
#

the damn citadel light house sniper

full jackal
vestal rivet
#

hence why it hasn't been repeated since

frozen turtle
#

with the tech they have now with like the citadel straight up shooting anyone who goes to high

full jackal
#

also this was before soosu so they probably didn’t have guns

vestal rivet
full jackal
#

wait wasn’t it like 850ap

frozen turtle
#

Soosu invented archers minefields

#

i think

full jackal
#

and like soosu was 880ap

vestal rivet
#

the industrialization didn't begin until she became a Sovereign, and it was obviously already going on when the Corkians escaped

frozen turtle
#

they saw soosu as sov and decided they needed to leave ig

vestal rivet
#

based on the fact they stole parts from factories...

full jackal
#

yea ik but didn’t corkians ecape 30 years before soosu??

vestal rivet
frozen turtle
#

sec ik there is a timeline

vestal rivet
#

by like 50ish years

#

iirc Corkus is only a little over 100 years old as a province, based on the guide from The Envoy I

paper wyvern
full jackal
#

y’all mf

#

350 years ago, however, a splinter group left Fruma through the mountains on the northern coastline.

narrow kestrel
vestal rivet
#

well
timeline inconsistency!

full jackal
#

—relos secret library

frozen turtle
#

which wiki are you using for that

paper wyvern
#

It was changed to 150

full jackal
frozen turtle
#

weird cause

vestal rivet
#

still outdated

frozen turtle
#

im reading it

vestal rivet
#

but yeah even 150 years doesn't fit in the timeline
it would have to be more between 100 and 120 to work

full jackal
#

wait goddamnit

frozen turtle
#

"150 years ago, a splinter group left Fruma through the mountains on the northern coastline." from the wiki

full jackal
#

its fandom

frozen turtle
#

yeah

#

fandom hasnt updated it

paper wyvern
#

That's weird it says 150 on my wiki

full jackal
#

fuck fandom ngl

paper wyvern
#

And in game

vestal rivet
frozen turtle
#

starting from 10 people as well

vestal rivet
vestal rivet
frozen turtle
#

so i'd imagine first ~50 years was just

#

setting up, and getting people and they werent really a province yet

paper wyvern
frozen turtle
#

they could sense Soosu reign and knew they had to leave

paper wyvern
#

And a little over 100 makes sense because a little over 100 is when the oceans calmed and they could get more people and actually become a province

frozen turtle
#

true true

full jackal
#

wait no

vestal rivet
full jackal
#

100 NA. As the night approaches, so does our last day in these hopeless lands. We are almost ready, there are only a few final improvements we must add to our escape craft. If we fail to escape, it will mean almost certain death for us.

#

Before IA

vestal rivet
#

tf

frozen turtle
#

there still may of been a factory

full jackal
#

T_T

paper wyvern
#

The discovery is literally dated

frozen turtle
#

isnt it Soosu's manor also

#

not Soosu's factory

vestal rivet
#

the factories didn't even exist at that point did they???

frozen turtle
#

It was already the "industrial district" so it would already have factories

#

i think

vestal rivet
#

where tf did they get the materials

paper wyvern
full jackal
#

ong maybe there was just a factory before then but it wasn’t nearly as advanced as it was now

vestal rivet
paper wyvern
full jackal
frozen turtle
#

well it clearly had to be industrial-like if it had factories

vestal rivet
#

look around at the various interactable plans in the room the discovery is in

paper wyvern
#

Oh huh it does say factories

full jackal
#

fabrics are not that hard to get

paper wyvern
#

Textile manufacturing though

frozen turtle
#

"Stolen fabric from nearby factories. Must be strong and heat resistant"

vestal rivet
#

the dates given don't match up with what they had

full jackal
#

Yea like there could’ve been those before soosu

#

just not as advanced

frozen turtle
#

I'd imagine factories existed but they were just beginning

#

Soosu kicked off the like full industrial age

#

with her inventions specifically i think

vestal rivet
#

I guess that Soosu would've needed parts to make the first invention anyways?

paper wyvern
#

Ok but textile factories being a thing before the big industrial age isn't that big an issue

full jackal
#

like i imagine pre-soosu fruma was like 1790s level tech

#

post-soosu like 1920s

frozen turtle
#

wasnt it also that she like "invented electricity" or made tech to use it

paper wyvern
paper wyvern
#

Electricity came later

vestal rivet
#

so obviously part of the industrialization must've happened before Soosu rose to power
but it's implied that Soosu is responsible for bringing them out of the wide open farm fields and nothing else stage

paper wyvern
#

Yeah I think they should be clear of mostly fields with a minor early industry instead of implying that it was fully agricultural

narrow kestrel
#

FUCKER STOLE MY KILL

full jackal
#

they said it was mostly agricultural

narrow kestrel
#

THAT WAS GONNA BE OUR FIRST ON-SCREEN KILL (no, aledar doesnt count)

full jackal
#

how about literally every mob

#

how about takan

how about the witch in olux

bro everyone in Fruma is a skill-stealer

bro thinks he’s tuff

frozen turtle
#

kill

#

stealer

narrow kestrel
#

he sounds like he got possessed in the ending

#

😭

#

the tone shift

mossy badge
#

Also i wonder is the other ending achieved by ur dialogue options or hardmode?

summer bluff
narrow kestrel
#

i always wondered why "why do you care?" was a dialogue option

narrow kestrel
#

talking about onscreen kill

#

body on the ground, blood everywhere

#

i mean, theres Hollow Serenity but thats indirectly (feel bad for the old man tho)

summer bluff
hybrid gazelle
#

Arnol killing commander is pretty important to the story of hte side questbecause it show Arnol development to defy the Crown and actualyl go one to go against it

#

if he simply just stood by, then he just gonna be simply spectator

whole river
#

Arnol shows that not all of hyloch deserved to be put to the sword of course

hybrid gazelle
#

which would not allow for his later development

hybrid gazelle
#

but yeah his existence as side quest is pretty limited

full jackal
#

he is corny

mossy badge
#

Goes away

full jackal
#

lmaoooo

mossy badge
#

Deems we're not friends and doesn't help with the fight

full jackal
#

Is there like a clip of it

mossy badge
#

I dont have it clipped no

whole river
full jackal
whole river
#

Arnol is the hollow knight

mossy badge
whole river
#

Trust

full jackal
#

yea but like he’s corny

whole river
#

It’s an MMO 99% of people are corny

hybrid gazelle
#

this is true

frozen turtle
#

Arnol was so just annoying actually

hybrid gazelle
#

99% of people in fantasy world are corny

full jackal
#

yea but like he’s corny

hybrid gazelle
#

annoying because:?

frozen turtle
#

vibes

whole river
#

I think you’re just really on this corny thing

full jackal
whole river
#

Cuz he was fine

frozen turtle
#

he pmo

whole river
#

Less annoying than the average villager quest in gavel

hybrid gazelle
#

this come from a guy who rambling about being possessed by anathema or whatever btw

frozen turtle
#

i was able to insult him but then the instructor was like "you guys are besties"

full jackal
#

idk i just think he’s trying too hard to have cool lines

full jackal
#

Like you’d think he’d be more scared ir smth

whole river
#

How do you know he’s not scared

full jackal
#

like literally how did he get any of his skills

hybrid gazelle
#

He just done being disrespect and abuse by the higher uathority

whole river
#

It’s what you do after you get scared that matters

#

That’s courage

hybrid gazelle
#

he train?

full jackal
hybrid gazelle
#

every recruits literally said to train under their pviate trainer

full jackal
#

unoriginal but true

hybrid gazelle
#

you get that in the beginning of the quest

frozen turtle
#

wasnt arnol shown as just bad tho with his results

#

tbf the military may just have

#

high expecations so idk

#

i was not paying attention to him

hybrid gazelle
#

he is pretty bad compare to his peers yes

#

but he still trained nontheless

full jackal
#

i mean tbf he only got the kill cuz we already beat the trainer up

mossy badge
#

I wonder what happens to him in the other ending, does he just get beaten to death lol

paper wyvern
#

Arnol isn't even the worst

frozen turtle
#

i thankfully didnt have to see him at the end

split night

Trashie
While replaying WynnEx Site B I notice that the motif for the song play during your exploration in the cave sound really similar to the song play in the Outervoid
is there like any relation between Cosmic Magic with the Void?

hybrid gazelle
#

I have 0 idea

frozen turtle
hybrid gazelle
#

I forgot most of thing form WYnnex

whole river
#

For good reason

mossy badge
hybrid gazelle
#

there probably should be concern if you doing story content and being so press about having your skill "stolen"

#

but like whatever

#

you do you

whole river
#

Wynnex is so fun why is one of the gems not even in the official Wynn provinces lol

frozen turtle
#

not concerned about it, its just funny

mystic fulcrum
mossy badge
frozen turtle
#

that the player basically does stuff then at the end some other character swoops in and does it, just feels weird

full jackal
frozen turtle
#

like it just takes me out of the story

full jackal
#

yes we are X_X

hybrid gazelle
#

if you see the campagin of trying to free Fruma from dictatorship

#

as "mass murdering"

#

then you probably should get a check up

full jackal
#

Ex: Torann, Takan, Rise of the Quartron

full jackal
#

and i don’t feel bad at all

#

but yes that is murder

frozen turtle
#

cuz to me it's like "oh i'm fighting for my life" and these npcs just stand watching and right as you're about to get the final winning moment they just snipe it. like its just weird to me

split night
hybrid gazelle
#

maybe you also should feel bad

#

killing a lot of people still bad thing

#

but it simply something that just happen

whole river
#

The Fruma queen has one slight inconvenience and wanted to flood a full 25% of her land, I do not defend the soldiers who died defending that to be honestly fair

hybrid gazelle
#

but also to be fair

#

they dont know that

#

so lol

full jackal
frozen turtle
#

eh not really a slight inconvenience but yeah

hybrid gazelle
#

but yeah

whole river
#

Like half her army would probably still be ok with it

#

Hyloch ones at least

hybrid gazelle
#

people like constable espically those from roughwork enjoy beating people

#

so like

#

IDK maybe

#

we doing fruma a favor

narrow kestrel
#

aaaaand thats another bugged fight!

full jackal
#

i think torann was justified and idc about those soldiers but objectively we killed dozens of people

narrow kestrel
#

i fucking hate this region bro

#

except for fucking gikyo

split night
#

Her's Majesty kill a lot more people in history compare to us throughout the Fruma questline
like it's not that simple, nuances are everywhere

full jackal
#

wdym majin worked fine fod me

narrow kestrel
#

every fight bugs out

narrow kestrel
hybrid gazelle
#

all boss fight work fine for me

narrow kestrel
#

the fuck do i do

Honestly I wish the fort fight was more like the damn elevator fight

Just reset and pray it’s not as bad as the zhiraok bugs

Trick bugs shit out

narrow kestrel
#

you'll be doing most of the damage

#

but i can play AS

#

yes

split night
whole river
#

I played trick with majin fine guess I just believed in the archetype more

narrow kestrel
#

hol own let me switch to AS

full jackal
#

even just in canon events we killed dozens in torann, almost killed zhiraok, killed gikyo, majin, queen, dozens in roughworks and mistwoods and dozens in highlands and aelumnia

split night
#

imma bolt and do it so like, i won't care if you die or not, just try to stay alive

#

xd

narrow kestrel
#

can u hop on now

It was quite fun a trickster arch build vs a trick meteor build majin was using

narrow kestrel

Is this why the strong survive is the best quest? 🗣️ 🔥

narrow kestrel
vestal rivet
#

I was playing it before it was cool I thought

narrow kestrel
#

low dps

full jackal
#

I mean in my playthrough i killed like actual thousands and i can’t imagine there were that many rebels, maybe like hundreds jn auburn max

narrow kestrel
#

im doing 3h lootruns

#

for money

split night
#

get a cheap mythic

narrow kestrel

ill kill myself before i do outervoid

Get nulli 🤑

narrow kestrel

Switch to CF acro

Or smth

narrow kestrel
full jackal
mossy badge
#

Or like i heard there's a new slop set called liffmail

split night
#

liffmail set is not even more powerful than morph

mossy badge
#

Im not biased cuz i still dont have archaic writing cough cough

split night
#

what is this

mossy badge
full jackal
#

isn’t liffmail just a hnique

narrow kestrel
mossy badge
#

Why would they play it if its worse than morph

split night
#

my ign is ItsAuree

narrow kestrel
#

morph is a stx now

#

💀

mossy badge
#

💀

#

How

#

How does that happen bro 😭

narrow kestrel
#

i forgot which ones

split night
narrow kestrel
#

but theres a piece thats like 30 LE UNID

split night
#

like a full set of 8 items is really hard xd

#

technically you can profit of this fact by grinding lower level morph items

narrow kestrel
#

morph steel is like

#

super rare

mossy badge
#

Were set tier items common?

narrow kestrel
#

on trade marker

#

t

whole river
split night
split night
#

extremely

full jackal
#

wait is CosFound set good?

whole river
#

It’s better morph

split night
#

that's why morph went from 15eb to 4LEs

mossy badge
full jackal
#

4LE can be gotten in like 2 raids or 1 mediocre lootrun

mossy badge
#

They killin sets

narrow kestrel
#

check pfinder @split night

paper wyvern
full jackal
#

Honestly i am terrible at making builds

mossy badge
#

Dmg slap 🔥

full jackal
#

i mever think about defense i just like to look at the dps go higher

mossy badge
#

Who needs good base ehp when fire pot exists 🤯

split night
narrow kestrel
#

cf is

#

better at dmg

#

but less utility

full jackal
#

until i realize that i die in 10 seconds on Syndra II and i had to switch to Absolution

split night
#

existing morph usually should be in the hand of people who are already good

whole river
#

Wonder if the wasteland will just have aliens

narrow kestrel
#

like. you have half the mana regen

mossy badge
narrow kestrel
#

defensive stats

#

and sp bonuses

#

😭

paper wyvern
#

Aren't cf defensive stats better than morph

narrow kestrel
full jackal
#

Honestly idk why more people son’t ise aquarius

mossy badge
full jackal
#

like InT req is high asf but the 50mana regen is so good

full jackal
#

i refuse to go 2 seconds without casting spells

#

especially when my main attack dmg has 0.5x mult

mossy badge
#

Ye but like on half of the archetypes u can prolly sustain good enough with not that much mr

paper wyvern
#

What kinda non shade assassin isn't constantly casting

summer bluff
#

Rip set teir glad I got all my snail armor before then tho

paper wyvern
#

Acro actually needs 50mr

#

And it's a nice bonus for trick

mossy badge
summer bluff
#

All 5 sets saltroll

full jackal
#

cuz i play really aggressively

mossy badge
#

Whats ur archetype?

#

Lb?

full jackal
#

acolyte

mossy badge
#

Ah

paper wyvern
#

Also you do need good mr to move fast with dance

whole river
#

Do you think they’ll ever discuss the entire other world slykaar had access to

full jackal
#

nope

#

thats like a one time thing i think

#

unkess rhey wanna make a storyline with troms

whole river
#

Kinda funny cuz if Bob didn’t disappear slykaar might have been able to drag Bob into the dimension and trap him there

mystic fulcrum
#

slykaar is so much weaker than Bob so impossible

rustic nexus
#

if they ever rewrite that part of the story, I am 80% confident that dimension is getting cut out

whole river
#

You don’t need to be stronger to get them trapped

rustic nexus
whole river
#

even if archetypes aren’t really canon it would be fun to see more cosmic horror

rustic nexus
#

also there was like this one mention of dernic essence or something in the quest

#

😭

full jackal
#

Aco can casually summon an eldritch beast and blood lasers

dim plover
#

I hope Wynncraft makes a darkness-themed dialogue box soon because I have a new cutscene idea

mystic fulcrum
#

should make acolyte ultimate to be the full eldritch beast summoned, not just the leg

dim plover
#

Might need someone to help build the scene though I kinda don’t want to copy-paste islands again

full jackal
#

monument of gloom is so boring

dim plover
#

Then again,

full jackal
#

like wdym Eldritch call is cooler than the ult

dim plover
#

Hm.

whole river
dim plover
#

They need to make them look more lovecraftian cosmic horror tentacles

full jackal
#

So like for now there are like 4 dialogue boxes right?

full jackal
#

like one for narration one for normal stuff one for war and one for sovereigns

dim plover
#

Oh the dialogue style

dim plover
#

There’s one for Light as well

#

Orphion speaks with it

full jackal
#

really??

#

lemme see

mossy badge
#

Ye

dim plover
#

It’s like angel wings and antlers

#

i don’t have my laptop on me rn so i can’t see it

stray karma
#

wow

mossy badge
#

Not so overwhelming and bright smh

dim plover
rustic nexus
#

honestly I'm surprised they didn't make a dark influence text box, given saphanis speaks several times in some secret discoveries

stray karma
#

so what is the total list?
Bak'al, Orphion, Her Majesty, and?

full jackal
rustic nexus
#

bakal and anathema use the same text box style

mossy badge
#

There's normal, war and light

dim plover
#

And Fruma

full jackal
#

like those are the people that get their own dialogue boxes

dim plover
#

(Where’s dark though)

full jackal
#

Md everyone else associated with them gets them too

dim plover
#

(Could use one)

full jackal
#

i wish the leaves had their own one too

mossy badge
full jackal
#

wait does lari get the light one?

shut hornet
rustic nexus
#

also you know something I don't like about the orphion text box
it doesn't have it's influence's sigil in the background like how the war influence box has it

shut hornet
#

the light text box was originally made to be a text box for all gavel npcs rather than orphion specifically

full jackal
shut hornet
#

hence the lack of the sigil

rustic nexus
#

ahh

#

I see

dim plover
#

God this is perfect placement

shut hornet
#

we decided it was way too extra and limited it to orphion

dim plover
shut hornet
#

might give it to lari in the future too idk

rustic nexus
#

will the sigil be added....

shut hornet
#

since bak'al and anathema share the chaos one

full jackal
#

nah dullahan isn't light's scion

This is probably way too much but itd be cool if he got a corrupted light one

There's one for each influence

Hi Sam 👋

shut hornet
dim plover
#

I know the influences have a sigil I’m talking about how Sam mentions a lack of sigil

spring kernel
#

fair

full jackal
#

isn’t he just a farmer

shut hornet
#

oh nothing

full jackal
#

in tunnel trouble

spring kernel
rustic nexus
shut hornet
#

the sovereign dialogue box was likewise originally for all fruma npcs

dim plover
#

I guess it’s too Orphion-themed for that

#

But what sigil

rustic nexus
#

omg wait
imagine every unique race gets a dialogue box...

dim plover
#

Are you talking about the nameplate

#

I’m so confused

full jackal
rustic nexus
dim plover
full jackal
#

i mean like it’d be kinda weird if they all got compeltely different ones

rustic nexus
#

ok so purple

full jackal
#

but like maybe slight variations of the default idk

rustic nexus
#

envision the war influence text box

#

it has the sigil in the background of the text area

dim plover
#

The text box doesn’t have a sigil

spring kernel
shut hornet
dim plover
#

Am I hallucinating

spring kernel
#

yeah the light box doesn't have the sigil

#

but the war one does

dim plover
#

Does it???

rustic nexus
#

the light box doesn't have it, but I wish it did

dim plover
#

I’ve never noticed a sigil

rustic nexus
#

the war box does, and I wish light did too

dim plover
#

I feel like if I did I would have pointed it out

spring kernel
#

light one probably will

rustic nexus
#

you know what would be really good though

spring kernel
#

the war one will hopefully be improved in the future too

shut hornet
#

So lo

full jackal
#

wait does Weird Baka Al still use war if even though he’s working for dern

rustic nexus
#

if for bak'al, the box was the same but the sigil was flipped to look like the anni version

spring kernel
#

how far did you scroll up in the apotheosis thread to find that screenshot

shut hornet
#

fun bonus here is the concept art for this box made by yours truly

rustic nexus
#

LMAO

full jackal
#

XD

#

okay but actually though what are villagers and why do they exist

#

why are they literally humans with big noses

#

what evolutionary purpose do the noses serve

#

and why are they BALD

whole river
#

Why did the Neanderthals have bigger noses

shut hornet
#

bonus fun fact: originally this was the intended rotation of the chaos sigil but we flipped it on annihilation because we were scared that people would figure out that the queen is related to chaos with it because it intentionally looks like a butterfly

whole river
#

Also they’re not all bald

full jackal
#

yea some of them have sides ig

spring kernel
#

and the ones that aren't fully bald are half bald

shut hornet
#

in retrospect it was kind of silly to be afraid of that

whole river
#

Tbf 90% of villagers were made before they started making more unique models

#

Actually probably 100%

spring kernel
#

I remember worrying the eye colours would make the queen's identity too obvious

full jackal
#

like why do they exist

whole river
#

Larger noses were for colder and dryer climates

#

Gavel just really dry af

spring kernel
#

the CHILDREN are bald

full jackal
shut hornet
#

the eye colours were my idea originally but i then got scared that people would figure out that shes the chaos beast from it

#

there was originally consideration to have both her eyes be purple instead

whole river
#

Gavel might have been in a more extreme ice age once upon a time

full jackal
shut hornet
#

have you guys considered that we made minecraft villagers a different species to humans and then gave them their own province and didnt really think very hard about why they look like that

#

i found dialogue for an unused gavel quest from 2015 that talked about how villagers cant equip armor because "lol minecraft villagers cant do that"

whole river
#

You’re in lore discussion it’s our job to overanalyze things that we know had little thought put into them

#

they were just added to have another race but now in 2026 villagers should get some actual love now also cuz they’re still kinda just a stereotype at large

hybrid gazelle
full jackal
#

uhh actually y’all used up all the fantasy races

hybrid gazelle
#

TBH I feel so stupid not drawing cvonnection that yellow and purple might be light and dern because I associate them more with white and black LOL

full jackal
#

there literally aren’t any left

shut hornet
#

i saw more speculation that she was some kind of balance that was opposite to war

full jackal
whole river
#

I thought Fruma queen was an aberration of a Dark and Light creature at first cuz moth parallels

#

Kinda close but very far

shut hornet
#

oh btw was anyone actually caught off guard by the queen being immortal and living for at least 800 years

full jackal
#

nah

shut hornet
#

that was meant as a wtf type of moment but maybe you all expected it

whole river
#

I thought she was always immortal tbh

full jackal
#

queen always came off as an insanely powerful being

narrow kestrel
#

sorry so when is the tasim love confession happening??

#

i beat the queen

whole river
#

go to the old leaves hideout iirc

full jackal
#

so like if Zhi can literally revive then why can’t queen live for 800 years

shut hornet
#

i tried to tease it early on with the llevigar archivist dialogue where he talks about how there is no record of fruma ever having a king

hybrid gazelle
#

Samsam this is a game where like

full jackal
#

besides there’s the immortality sources

hybrid gazelle
#

Theorick and Slykaar exist

shut hornet
hybrid gazelle
#

Queen being immortal is like

whole river
#

I think the queen just had so much presence there’s no way she could’ve been normal

shut hornet
#

its kind of confusing

hybrid gazelle
#

the least surprising thing about her 😭

full jackal
shut hornet
#

slykaar is just bullshit

whole river
#

I think a bigger plot twist would’ve been that she had a normal age

shut hornet
#

fuck slykaar

hybrid gazelle
#

no even before corrupted

#

he still live pretty long time

#

for a human being

#

also the 4 brothers live up to like

#

80 years?

#

and still kicking and not in fucking wheelchair

shut hornet
whole river
#

(And no I don’t think her being fully human is good just that her having a normal age is weird)

full jackal
shut hornet
#

she is not made of mortal flesh i doubt it would work

full jackal
#

she’s the queen why would she not use the fountain of use (Fruma edition!)

hybrid gazelle
#

Also Bob too but like

#

he is half om

full jackal
hybrid gazelle
#

but still

full jackal
#

so like we could’ve reasoned that she used that

#

so shes immortal either way

hybrid gazelle
#

the amulet is not a "revive" tho

full jackal
#

also btw the fact that immortality springs just exist and can revive the dead

hybrid gazelle
#

it's time reversion

full jackal
#

why do people not use that more

hybrid gazelle
#

so if you use it to counter your death by age

#

then you kinda just

#

stuck in a loop LOL

full jackal
spring kernel
#

ee

hybrid gazelle
#

his body

#

not his mind

shut hornet
#

im not sure how much of the amulets mechanics are explained right now

#

it has some weird specifics to it

hybrid gazelle
#

the way that Zhiraok describe it

#

it feel morel ike time reversion than generic revival

#

because he talking about the pain of his body like

#

rewinding??

#

I gotta check the dialogue agian

#

but yeah

shut hornet
#

im glad it was deleted from the story tbh because its kind of a really overcomplicated and overpowered item to have exist

full jackal
#

But like actually

hybrid gazelle
#

it's good thing it fucking gone LOL

full jackal
#

why do people not use the immortality springs

#

the one in dernel is literally completely unguarded

#

any mf can just walk in and use it

#

why do more people not use it

hybrid gazelle
#

old content

#

they did not take that into consideration

full jackal
#

like is it lost or smth cuz we found it very easily

full jackal
#

granted that one is way more hard to break into

#

And it’s completely guarded

hybrid gazelle
#

that because

full jackal
#

so only those approved by the crown (or those who are insanely strong) can use it

hybrid gazelle
#

it heavily guarded

#

but if you talking about fountain of youth

#

that just old content

#

they have not update it

full jackal
#

okay but like what the hell do you mean they did not take that into consideration

hybrid gazelle
#

by that I mean

#

it was a old piece of content that back then

full jackal
#

like no offense but how do you not consider that

hybrid gazelle
#

they did not build a lore around it

uneven basin
full jackal
#

it was found pretty easily

uneven basin
#

Imagine dernel is way bigger and hard to traverse

hybrid gazelle
#

normal people are not going to go into dense jungle

#

espically with undead and whatever is in the jungle

full jackal
#

I guess that kinda makes sense

hybrid gazelle
#

wtf you mean you guess

uneven basin
#

Plus the villager that found it isn't keen on having it become public knowledge

hybrid gazelle
#

irl normal peopel dont go to dense jungle for FUN

rustic nexus
#

isn't the reasoning why no one uses the fountain of youth because the tribes that live in the jungles treat it as a myth and not something that exists, plus it's like inside a cave

#

only researchers sometimes go there

full jackal
uneven basin
rustic nexus
#

yea

#

so it is kind of like, under discovered

full jackal
#

okay yea thats reasonable

rustic nexus
#

and the people that did know of it would rather not use it too much

full jackal
#

but they should probably remove the two researcher guys at the fountain

rustic nexus
#

ehhhh

#

the guy in the cave maybe

hybrid gazelle
#

even then tbh it could more update

rustic nexus
#

but the guy on the surface is fine

#

yeah

#

it could be updated

full jackal
#

you know how profitable it would be to sell the location

hybrid gazelle
#

I imagine they will update it more

rustic nexus
#

jungle update...

#

please ct I need this

#

my jungle is kind of crusty

full jackal
#

jungle is actually such an underdeveloped area

rustic nexus
#

in and out of meta

hybrid gazelle
full jackal
#

along with pigman ravines

#

One day, the squares lived in harmony in their little square town. One day, a circle came.

#

”Get outta here!” The squares said

#

”but why?” Replied the poor circle helplessly

#

”because this is an allegory for racism”

uneven basin
#

Mages powerful enough to ward off any mercenary group ig

full jackal
#

I guess it’s guarded by a group of high mages who block anyone from using it

#

idk if they were to remake the quest

rustic nexus
#

honestly

#

what would happen if the corruption made contact with the fountain of youth

full jackal
#

then i suggest have there be a society of high mages who guard the fountain with their life, and eventually there are rumors that the fountain exists. The player then goes to the fountain and finds out about the society. Turns out someone sold them out, and you gotta figure out who it was.

rustic nexus
#

the undead come back to life as seen from the lazarus pit

#

but... what about something that is already undead and alive

#

like, would the corruption just explode

full jackal
#

uhh…

#

maybe they’d become like a corrupted Dedead?

narrow kestrel
#

whose fucking payroll is her ass on

full jackal
#

probably anath

#

But she’s kinda disloyal

narrow kestrel
#

damn no one likes her ass fr

#

im surprised the queen didnt kick her ass out though

tropic locust
#

2 is weird she seems to kinda do whatever tf she wants

rustic nexus
narrow kestrel
#

even before this she's been cryptic as shit and withholding info, according to zhiraok

rustic nexus
#

it's just that at this point in the story, continuing that loyalty is having a death wish

narrow kestrel
#

which isnt REALLY something you want for a loyal subject

spring kernel
#

Anathema knows what she's like

rustic nexus
#

Anathema knows what she is.

full jackal
spring kernel
#

that too

rustic nexus
#

insert that one dog image

spring kernel
#

anyone have the doc, there's some dialogue about two

tropic locust
#

2 knew the player might break into fruma and she basically just grabbed popcorn and watched what will happen

narrow kestrel
#

she didnt say anything to zeph omg

proud ginkgo
#

two versus player

narrow kestrel
#

buddy its fine you got your boyfriend

full jackal
#

so like really two is only loyal to balance not queen

narrow kestrel
#

😭

paper wyvern
#

Two is only loyal in that they have the same goal the moment she goes off the deep end she just abandons her

rustic nexus
paper wyvern
#

2 didn't let us see her backstory

rustic nexus
proud ginkgo
rustic nexus
#

we literally went into her MEMORIES

#

would you allow such a breach in privacy

spring kernel
#

She's loyal because she knows the queen will murder her if she isn't

full jackal
narrow kestrel
#

she a bit dumb

#

😭

full jackal
#

She doesn’t trust us enough i think

narrow kestrel
#

no like

#

to the queen

#

zhiraok mentioned shes been like this even before we came

paper wyvern
rustic nexus
#

she doesn't hold info from the queen????????????

narrow kestrel
rustic nexus
#

she just doesn't share it with all the sovereigns

#

which btw, only zhiraok was apparently the one out of the loop

paper wyvern
#

Yeah queen and Majin are kept in the loop

spring kernel
#

info to those who need to know it

full jackal
rustic nexus
#

powerful

paper wyvern
full jackal
#

like literally why him

rustic nexus
#

I mean

paper wyvern
#

He's the most powerful sovereign

rustic nexus
#

he was there when we talked with two anyway

full jackal
rustic nexus
#

so he would've known some of it

#

tasim was told because the information is key for the mission into dern

tropic locust
spring kernel
#

she's just smart

rustic nexus
#

why would two give this information to zhiraok or soosu(if not imprisoned) or gikyo(if they were alive) or oru
like, this isn't really something that needs to be said to all the sovereigns

full jackal
#

if she trusts TASIM but not Zhiraok (who literally only betrays her after she tries to kill a quarter of fruma) she’s crazy

rustic nexus
#

zhiraok is already busy thinking of just auburn, let alone all of fruma

#

doubt he really needs to hear about the advances of the realm soap opera

full jackal
#

i just think it’s kinda important for him to know just in case

#

besides what harm does it even do

#

just don’t tell him about what queen is

rustic nexus
#

he would've been told if not for us interrupting I think

rustic nexus
#

also yeah ^^

#

why WOULDN'T you give such information to the person going into dern

full jackal
#

Honestly queen had no good choices

#

tasim is biased for us, we’re way too chaotic and the others are weaklings

full jackal
narrow kestrel
#

😭

#

cant blame them

#

so is apotheosis the end of fruma content

#

or is this another TCC situation

#

where everything is in the fucking SDs

spring kernel
#

the major fruma lore is in the main quests

full jackal
#

apostheosis is the end… for now

spring kernel
#

the secret discoveries are more about the past

full jackal
#

there’s gonna be a sequel

narrow kestrel
#

more tasim content where he isnt downright hostile hopefully

#

them explicitly showing the almighty reviving charm on-screen being destroyed was funny as fuck though

#

i just know they didnt want people saying "BUT ZHIRAOK CHARM!!!!" in future deaths

stray karma
#

yay they can continue killing off ppl

narrow kestrel
#

surely they will let tasim live

#

after this

stray karma
#

refreshing to have a story where characters can die

narrow kestrel
#

disgraceful character assassination

stray karma
#

Tasim is going to sacrifice himself somewhere

#

100%

narrow kestrel
#

no

#

tasim love confession in the wastelands and lari comes back in a cart

#

believe it

tropic locust
#

love confession while dying 💯

#

then we put him in a cart

narrow kestrel
#

...back to the hotel room in hyloch, yes i see the vision 💯

rustic nexus
#

I think tasim will live through the storyline

hybrid gazelle
#

@rustic nexus have you seen my writing on wynncrafth oliday

rustic nexus
#

nop

#

I have not seen that

hybrid gazelle
#

I NEED A BETTER NAME FOR BOB DAY MAN

rustic nexus
#

robert day

ember coyote
#

does saphanis show up in later quests cus i havent finished the whole storyline yet

full jackal
hybrid gazelle
#

why

#

why would it be called festival

#

when it just a day

full jackal
#

Uhhh

#

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

hybrid gazelle
rustic nexus
#

yea they don't

rustic nexus
#

that's their name

full jackal
#

BOBDAY

rustic nexus
full jackal
#

day of determination

rustic nexus
#

wait do we know what season bob was born

full jackal
#

Nope

rustic nexus
#

cuz I like the idea of it coinciding with one of the festivals

hybrid gazelle
#

we dot know LOL

full jackal
#

festival of the heroes is already kinda celebrating him

rustic nexus
#

yeah

#

maybe if it alligned with bob's birthday

full jackal
#

Probanly that’s what happened

#

actually

#

festival of the heroes is probably already his festival

rustic nexus
#

I can already imagine like

#

aster seeing there's nothing more happening during bob's birthday

#

and deciding to put his festival to be around that date

full jackal
#

yeah it makes sense

#

also i cannot believe aster got a portrait but lari doesn’t

paper wyvern
rustic nexus
#

yeah that's what I'm saying

full jackal
#

like please ct u don’t need to wait until a later update to add them

#

you can add them individually or smth

rustic nexus
#

they did say portraits will be added over time

#

so like

paper wyvern
#

Where's my talking mushroom dialogue picture

rustic nexus
#

it makes sense

full jackal
#

genuinely i’m willing to delay wastelands by half a year

#

if it means everyone gets their portraits

rustic nexus
#

half a year

#

lol

#

good one

paper wyvern
#

Ok but like different teams working on it

#

Also only half a year lmao

#

It's gonna get delayed by a year anyway

full jackal
#

like tasim and aledar don’t even have portraits T_T

rustic nexus
#

the person who did all the fruma portraits

#

did all of the fruma music too

full jackal
full jackal
rustic nexus
#

texilated the goat

paper wyvern
full jackal
#

Okay then just give tex zhiraok powers then

#

duhh???

rustic nexus
#

ok well, except kaio's, jiro's and the wynn people in queen's recruit iirc

full jackal
#

also the fact that kaio gets his own portrait T_T

molten escarp
rustic nexus
#

kaio gets like 2 portraits 😭

#

and jiro has like 1 iirc

full jackal
#

still 😭

full jackal
rustic nexus
#

for characters like lari, you'd expect something closer to sui's 40ish portraits

full jackal
#

Sui has 40???

molten escarp
#

sui has how many portraits

rustic nexus
#

iirc

full jackal
#

Most of them are the eating one though right???
