and its only with 1 character
wait till wastelands for the epilogue to come out
we get an epilogue in a year, wow
that's so soon!
i need more storyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
At least its not 7 years this time
i feel like we need to just wrap things up but nooo
so now fruma apbruptly ends
which i guess has always happened in updates
:(((((
Donāt jinx it
you guys think ohms came from fruma too?
:3
good question. i don't have a freaking clue
Actually I was thinking maybe there's a realm of balance or something like that. During two's speech she says that the mirror they looked at each other through shattered and the pieces made the realm of war, which implies there was something else there before that broke
thats fair
Is there any lore regarding the second sovereign, people have been speculating that she is a olm
maybe its their birthplace
prolly an ancient fruman
Doubt it considering the old almuj empire humans seem more genetically similar to frumans than the olm and they appear to be separated from fruma
the realm of war was created by the breakup
what old almuj?
what are you talking about
desert empire
i will say the lore moving away from all humans being fruman makes some things make more sense
i assume
was ohms from the desert?
They should honestly add the realm of dissonance to Wynn fr
nah it was all human colonies, they just forgot they were
Isn't that just the realm of war
I believe #āquestions and going into the wiki is better then asking lore.
realm of balance is a better name then realm of peace tbh
so i think you're right
especially makes the native tribes make more sense
As in the hashr peoples being mentioned in the ragni overlook Rosetta
i still think all humans came from fruma and populated wynn, its just wildly different time periods, the jungle guys could have come from pre-fruma tbh
what does this have to do with ohms?
if all humans are from Fruma and Fruma is reasonably racially diverse the white dudes all over wynn and the native tribe caricatures are quite odd
Oh no its just a monumenta reference, which happens to have slightly similar void lore for some reason
hmm
if the realm of balance was the size of a pebble you wouldn't NEED to know about it to understand the war of the realms
well there may be three rn, but whos to say theywerent more that were destroyed
Ohhh i have no reading comprehension and thought you said olm
Or olms
obligatory cant read
Its trye
True
Cant spell either
dont have smth for this
clearly the player is the Beast of Balance
prolly not a beast (yet)
Nah, Harmony
clearly
like my theory is that we are kyurem (discarded shell of something)
hence why we are missing something
Are we missing something or is it just buried deep
both i think
and subconsciously trying to Parent Trap orphion and saphanis back together to fix the realms
Fair
parent trap huh? BRING ME A NICE CRISPY PIECE OF MEAT
We're missing our memories and also a spark is hidden deep within the player, so I agree with m1n that it's both.
The lack has been buried deep
youre the guy who loves my grimdark takes
its nice to see a fellow suffering builds character believer
I don't love them i just know that you are rather obsessed with gruesome deaths
oh shoot i need to get back into character
No thats the beast of magic Lorenerd
well i think the team should make grimdark gamemode where youre kneedeep in corruption as some guy
Why are you Orphion's strongest lightbender? Do you mean to imply that all of Orphion's other lightbenders are weaker than you?
she has the same drip as tefris
A hunter's calling: the gamemode
eh
Gamer mode where you just cant accept quests
more you play as a nobody in peak corruption timeline (like the forgery timeline)
and her private memory is what looks to be a council chamber in the aelumia plateau
I really should get a stronger build if I want to keep this name
It symbolizes my devotion to Him.
I suppose there are different kinds of strengths
are you the strongest lightbender because you are lightbender or are you lightbender because your the strongest lightbender
What
first one
Unlimited games but no games
golden horde
kipchak
reoccurring theme...
i'm confused as to why tasim made a memorial for aledar at the leaves HQ
don't the leaves all hate him
unless i'm missing smth
tasim didn't make it
timeline:
Aledar captured along with Tasim. sent to Wynn
leaves carve tombstone and have funeral
Aledar dies in SE
player arrives in Fruma
Tasim pays respects at grave after apotheosis
no
aledar was one of the leaves before he was caught and mindwiped
rex's brother is (most likely) sailor caid
oh was that mentioned somewhere in the storyline or is that a secret disovery or smth
oh ok tys
we find a grave for Aledar by the Leaves on the Wind HQ house thing
really easy to miss though
Tasim can be found by it for a 1-off dialogue thing after the final quest is done
š±
Aledar's backstory is in Recover the Past
it was dug most likely because Aledar was captured by the crown and presumed dead, or at least would've been dead to the leaves at that point
ah i should do that again
they know him where it snows
how much did Recover the Past change in Fruma anyways
that's what i'd like to know
basically nothing I think?
I heard there was some dialogue changes
I do remember the room that Tasim was brainwashed in changed to be the one in the ARG.
It was already changed a couple of times to reflect what fruma was actually turned into
When it was still in development
yeah this is part of what I was asking about
The original version after it replaced tower of amnesia was completely different
Then it was changed to be similar to what it is now
Then a couple added scenes and dialogue changes and it's in the current staye
RIP Poor Town š
there is no war within the fruman walls
were wynncraft players, we cant read (we use voices of wynn)
I should mention to anyone that hasn't been hanging around the OST on youtube - Fruma's songs have attached logs to them in the description that I am going to assume can be considered as additional or repeat lore unless told otherwise - check them out.
The most recent set of songs from the other day and the one from a weekish ago with Domain and whatnot don't have logs from what I've watched but the tracks from Fruma release do.
does anyone know what lari saw when she entered the portal at the end of the realm of light V quest? where she told us to stay away
In the description of Tasteless Facade is a log from an unknown Fruman soldier that also identifies the fact Changeling's are just soldiers to die (As in the soldier themself is attaching that understanding in their Log), this is just me adding to the stuff I've said!
I do think this Soldier grossely misunderstands Changelings as a species due to just a detatchment in believing a species other than themselves (which is just how a lot of real people think) can possibly be 'sentient' or 'like them' thinking them as 'only knowing one job', but I do like that they're questioning it in the lens of being a soldier who is disillusioned by being someone in the military (especially a monarchial-based one) and is being somewhat sympathetic to the idea that they relate to the idea that Changeling's being Changelings means they are effectively just like a soldier; morphed into what they are ordered to become, blank slates that do the nations dirty work.
We can also consider the fact that the soldier is viewing the Tar Pits/Wastelands and perceives whatever wellspring of Changeling birth that was there is inherently now drained and empty and is basically a mass of non-sentience given form from the deep recesses of the Tar Pits with whatever Magic Changeling Be-Born Juice is left.
But I think it's still more than important to understand that they are still using Changeling's and their understanding of 'Nothing truly lives here' in relation to them as a way to project their own feelings of being a soldier for Fruma.
something bad
I always thought she was saying for the thing she saw to stay away
Oh yes, thatās my interpretation as well
oh yeah, you can either hope to find it yourself but its kinda rare.
there are videos about it if u wanna see what it is
Never seen one before, although I donāt loot run or prof in the SE
The nature of sentience is a really tough thing to conceptualize. Much how placing autonomy and humanity to an animal isnāt easily perceptible, I wonder how much of a changeling is shaped by their environment, their base instincts, and whether or not their biology is specifically designed to attain sentience.
They seem to be born with a near infinite level of potential, but their limits can be just as easily placed through simple perception. I wonder how many changelings wander Fruma, unaware of their origin, and living purely as whatever they shifted to.
But, thereās also the nature of humanity being both industrialized and replicated by an entire squadron of teachers and perspectives. We see their struggle to learn, and the effort it takes to mimic human-sentience, but we see some kind of innate desire to conform to a specific form, regardless of what it is being forced to do
Azael is probably the most interesting character in the game, the longer I think about this.
From what I got there was only one video, and man... that's so cool! It's also interesting that it simply takes you down to 1% health and disappears, as if it wasn't strong enough to assimilate you like Lucio.
any good reason that Gale would just... have the transcriber on her while in the Hive??
seems an odd thing for her to have taken with her, and also an odd thing to just keep on your person
I do believe in A House Divided SD, in her notes she says that she's working on translating the ancient language... so that's technically her work right there.
With all the bad memories from that place, best to let her cool off for a bit and also tell her about us killing Majin.
"hey remember your old bully? yeah we caused him to die a horrible death"
-# actually he seemed pretty euphoric, maybe not a horrible death
"and btw you have like 1 relative left that's still there and he's chill"
āMajin exploded. I killed your great grand nephew two times. Heās still alive tho donāt worry.ā
āHe hates you, thoughā
given that Gale can canonically leave the Hive for occasional festivals and the such, it'd make sense if she was allowed to revisit Fruma at some point too
kinda doubt she'd want to, but if she came around to the idea then maybe she'd be able to talk to Zhiraok or something
yeah you're probably right...
at the very least she'd be happy that Majin went off like a firework
Yeah exactly lol
Majin's death, colorized
actually she likely hates the queen too realistically
so double homicide double happiness
idr when she left so she might have a vague idea of who Gikyo is
but I really doubt she has any clue who Soosu is
"I understand your feelings about Fruma, but there's some good news... so I destroyed the monarchy and Majin is dead."
Soosuās basically a baby
hmm
Who is that lol
Insert the image of a CT member making the list of character misconceptions:
I'd say by Sovereign standards she's what she is physically
an adolescent, a child, one who's begun to learn but is not yet experienced
Compared to everyone else, sheās a baby
IS THAT TASIM?? WHAT IS HE WEARING???
Sheās the 2nd youngest sovereign
Zhiraok is the baby with only 21 years under his belt
and Tasim is a newborn
(By standard of ascension, I mean. Zhiraok hasnāt been around as long)
oh age on ascension
germany
yeah Soosu is the baby using that margin
Zhiraok seems to have received his blessing in his 30ās? Soosu got hers the youngest, barely into her 20ās
Zhiraokās prob in his late 40s or 50s
Soosu was ten
Majin mustāve gotten his in his Mid 20ās, too
Soosu was a LITERAL child
Soosu received her blessing as an adult, though
A young adult, but still
Majin and her might be of similar āat ascension ageā, now that I think about it. Maybe Majinās a bit older?
CT and a secret discovery I believe made it known she was a young adult (I'm confused about it too)
Iām assuming heās, like, 25
she is stuck in the body of a child forever
she hasn't grown past 10 physically or emotionally
and it's tearing her to shreds internally
I think it would be more interesting if she was a child, ofc
it's played off like giant teddy bears and bright pink beds and princess and unicorns storybooks would be normal for someone of her physical age to have
Maybe not a 10 year old, but 18 years old, like the leaves members. Her childhood was already taken, once she started doing work in the industrial district
I think she would've been like 13 at most given her size and the interests that never went away
Seems more of age regression, much like many such cases of childhood trauma (or exual trauma) experience, when attempting to cope with their own mind
not super familiar with the concept
She clings to a part of her that made sense, and was happy, to better attach herself to reality
can you share more or is that about what you can give
Many such victims who were abused during their childhood (and if it was consistent enough) will forcibly take themselves away from developing themselves to better detach from said trauma. The most clear examples Iāve experienced were people of exual abuse, more so from family, and theyāll specifically revert to a mindset and desire system to the time before, or of, the event itself.
well
this is a wonderful thing to learn about
CT said sheās an adult which I do think is a worse story
Iām having flashbacks to the Lacenet fights in the Silksong community
yeah with this context her being older physically makes much more sense
Soosu, to me, is following close to that sort of trauma. Children put into stressful environmentsāwithout real guidanceāseldom develop themselves the ability to actually process and comprehend what is happening to them. Once āsentienceā (autonomy, really) sets in, itās like a horrible aspect grief completely envelops them.
They realize what was taken, they have nothing to feed off of and heal from, and are forced into their own mind, perspective, experiences, etc, to solve the problem. A common response is to shut down, and revert to what is familiar, or the closest thing you have to a good feeling. This can manifest itself in toys, violence, food, stimming, coddling, etc
I thought you had a dance career not a psychology career lol
keep dropping stuff on me ig
Itās fucking horrible, actually. Many are aware of themselves, during the reduction, and feel like theyāre watching someone else take over. Many are aware, but donāt want to recognize its source, since itās such a difficult thing to process
My mother was a child psychologist and dancer as well. Most of my knowledge came from her, and then my own research from school, and encyclopedias/books and shit
Also, this isnāt an uncommon part of dance 
Many children are turned into tools of expression by schools, talent agencies, and especially their own parents
well
even more wonderful to learn about
see my egodeath / ascension / monkey paw majin death theory
Most end up completely unaware and underdeveloped, and cope through overeating, shopping, āsegsā, etc
he overloaded himself with cosmic magic and every drop of blood and filth in his veins flew every direction
tbh we're probably coated in the Majin slurry when we emerge back from... wherever his fight takes place
I know tons of young woman who were super talented ballet dancers, but have never experienced anything but dance mama forcing them to live a certain way, or dad touching them, or teacher coddling them, and they get taken advantage of for their entire adult life
The player character is used to being coated in... substances unknown by now.
Has the immune system of a tank at this point, lmao.
i meant more he monkey pawed himself by ascending above everyone into egoless cosmic force that doesnt do anything. he got everything he ever wanted in the worst way possible
I can imagine that what we were covered in was a better indicator of Majin's death than his cape was
only, the cape was used to not deal with the fact the player should be covered head to toe in liquified human
seems like a fitting death eh
that's even cooler
drop out, covered in blood, the cape flutters gently to the ground
kinda ironic too, kinda a symptom of cosmic magic look at the yahya brothers once the nerdiest and brilliant scientists now under 10 iq people
I hated him just not in a I-want-to-bathe-in-his-guts kind of way
so majin loosing everything for his goal of 'ascending above everyone' tracks imo
anyways what is Gale's traume now I didn't know we had an ameteure child psycologist here
harrassed by majin thalas
with dead snakes for birthday
what a guy
yes harassed and bullied by Majin (presumably when Majin was the same age I think?)
while also recieving extreme pressure from her entire extended family to take the place of the previous Highlands Sovereign
nope majin was like 4 years older
she enrolled in the academy at what 14 and majin was 18
but I was just curious of Shmeg had more than that to say
smth like that
Gale def shows a deep resentment and distrust towards her parents
we need more ohms lore atp
her entire family more like
they were all pressuring her, no?
I forget where she mentions other nasins
air pressure heh
her diary you rudeley read
presumably
we find her room and one of her diaries in the Nasin house
yeah
A House Divided SD
well probably get an extended dialogue with her in the wynnter stuff, maybe even in hallowynn
Gale is one of my favorite characters in the game
I hope we do
I pray we get more lore on her
wynnter will probably have her drop the lore ball on us
she's the favorite of a lot of people and not for the best reasons but whatever atp
or we get more ohms lore
are you talking about the Ahms or the Olms
we probably should get it if we wanna flesh out gale more
wasnt his name ohms
gales dead lover
oh
yeah I don't know much about all that Hive lore that doesn't appear in-game
...what reasons do they have her as their favorite for then???
ohms is pretty integral to gales story and if we wanna expand on her we probably get it through fancy ohms lore
she does say 'folks' but I don't think there's a mention of any Nasins other than her mom and dad
idk i dont know her
Wdym best reasons
maybe cuz she is chatty
Oh
oh
I just like the whole qira hive and their characters and stuff
Wish it got expanded on more
well ohms grave was supposed to be fairly important once upon a time
most of its lore isn't in-game anywhere
will it get added one of these days? prolly not
Great now I feel sour inside, Ima leave and come back with lore to discuss hopefully.
if it becomes more relevant then it'll have to be added somewhere
alot of it is in item descriptions
like there was a whole unfinished lab thing
where
oh
maybe theyll finish it one of these days
Gales grave is still there
Also being able to talk to quest bosses and enemies is so cool i love when they do that like wtp
they seem to wanna flesh out gale so i suppose well get ohms grave / lab sometime
maybe in 7 years
besides Gale's lover who is Ohm
yeah super important guy really
Would be cool if we get a quest with gale as the main npc
More lore on the rest of thr qira bosses would be prettyyyyy cool too
Gale is the only qira boss that isn't a construct
i assume well get more of the lore when the hive drops in to help us in dern or smth cuz all of the hive questline feels like a teaser for a future plotline
Surely they do things outside of fight though
like if they abandon the hive then theyll prolly have to rewrite all of qiras 'I WILL BE IMPORTANT LATER' dialogue
Eearth boss no the rest probably yea
well the psychomancer seems like the comically evil bastard of the group
wait what has Selvut been updating an old thread?
mentions Nasin, but the post is a decade old
The hive drops in, wynnex has a change of heart and helps us next to gavelex, corkians and avos put aside their difference and help, zhiraok brings the sovereigns and all the fruma people, and then the player says āTogether, we are wynncraftā and kills saphanis
wait shouldn't we have known that Zhiraok was related really early on in the Fruma beta then?
probably not
We did
Yes it was a joke
I didn't, dang
people have noticed and that alarmed them seeing the name
HOW OLD IS THIS LORE
very old
Old
retcon old
i dont think when gale was originially made they had fruma runaway princess in mind
it's not a retcon
i may be wrong tho
wrong word right
Yeah that part is probably retcon
But named gale nasin and probably also from fruma originally were likely the lore
Theres also the more recent crest of the highlands
festival dialogue talks about how she wasn't allowed to leave and that if she does she had to be always watched which indicated she was in fruma and had high status before leaving
so if gale is important in fruma does that ohms will be important in bloomi or morgor
oh yeah she gave us this last Christmas didn't she
That's more recent
how the hell does this thread have 106 pages
Way earlier
what festival dialogue
man the forums used to be popping
Festival dialogue was added like 2024?
christmas before last then
Weāve been able to get it since 2021
dang is 2021 that recent
ok I have seen 4 total years now
Considering gale was added 2016 yea
forgot about that
casually updating the character a decade later
Are we allowed to use Hive Drabbles as canon theorizing material
The Golemus section is still like one of the biggest pieces of past Hive lore Iāve ever seen, especially with added context in the Fruma update
Oh the conversation was half an hour ago
Nevermind
given the people in hyloch are basically almost all rich nobles out of touch of the world maybe they thought it was a good idea
I thought all the rich out of touch nobles were in aelumia
and hyloch was just regular rich people
I think both are both depending on who you talk to
my city is above a mine
millionaires are in hyloch billionaires are in aelumia, whats the difference
billionaires???
damn
Ig that is possible
I did say one day i wanted to become the first wynncraft billionaire
my point was the rich are in hyloch, the super rich are in aelumia
how many stx is a billion
whats the difference in mentality between an out of touch millionaire and an out of touch biollionaire? hard to say
thats a couple stx
š
no way im making that much without some crazy bug abuse
given the fine for breaking a rule in hylochs hotel is like 50 le i assume they have way more than 3800 stx in their bank account
so the people in aelumia may be trillionaires instead
what the fuck is generating that much le??
what business could possibly make that much
id like to know that too actually
le factory
I dont even think the entire wynncraft player economy has a trillion LE
frumas economy is just that good apparentley
i mean i can imagine the hyloch people having billions if a regular fine is 50 le, so aelumia must be ALOT richer
have we considered maybe the hotel just sucks?
the hotel were staying in in the questline is top-tier so mayb ea regular fine is 32 le or smth
someone check that hotel and its fine
if every fine is worth almost a stx then 3800 stx (a billion) cant be considered rich imo
with that stuff in mind the hyloch guys being trillionares isnt even out of the question
who knows tho atp
what are we calling a regular fine here
because in real life a āregularā fine can be what someone makes in a week or even more
well boyo the fine were talking about is disrepecting the rules of a high-end hotel
its hard to tell tho because fruma doesnt really have a middle class
the roughworks guys are middle class obvs
espren and roughworks are kinda poor
meh
arguable
they all work blue collar and the living conditions fucking suck
its like low-mid
like i said middle class
theyre the hobos ig
aelumia is the billionaires to hylochs millionaires
nah, they just arent really part of the kingdom all that mych
But yeah why are the people of hyloch rich
do tthey own factories in the roughworks?
obsceneley rich even
this seems like the only possible conclusion
probably goverment owned imo
and even then, why is fruma rich when its so isolated
theres no exports or imports happening here
its kind of its own economy
maybe soosus power lets her turn air into les but thats prolly not enough
š
money generator
Ana Magic fr
litter matter manipulation could let her do basically anything
pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, shapeshifting all possible and more
have you considered magic
how is there a giant redwood forest 50 meters away from a polluted city
who knows what effect magic has on botany and stuff
ye
maybe mistwoods mist is just roughworks smoke
i mean pretty much the biggest issue with wynncraft is just the scale of the land
but thats just to make gameplay less bad
ive had an argument with a CT member about the inaccurate technological development and then they replied with this
redwood existed first maybe
industrial district grew up around the redwoods
still wouldnt really work
well i'll take your word for it
realistically all of fruma would fucking stink
because of the industrial district
but the scales are off
so
In universe, Fruma is way bigger
ye
everything is heavily scaled down
we will just say we cant judge this stuff cuz we dont have magic (if we do get mib'd whenever we see it)
we call that ludonarrative dissonance in the biz
like for all we know magic exists and people use it regularly but they just mindf*** anyone who sees it
but at the same time i dont really think creating a sound ecology was the forefront of their narrative priorities
There was one thing they did right with the biomes
āAnd yes, I DO know what ludonarritive dissonance isā
-šŖš±
i have no idea what that refers to
instead of some straight cutoffs
It was worth a shot
but in fruma its just
some crazy cutoffs
between the biomes
does not make sense
instant switches
themes and such
Might be a bit too obscure of a reference lol
bring me a niece crispy piece of meat
its fantasy
anyways sense is relative to what you want to achieve in your narrative
wynncraft isnt ecological nor does it want to use the ecology of its environments to tell a story
Huge chuck o meat
its a enderal reference
they were making a joke about how people will use complex vocabulary just to flex that they know it
Idk what that is 
free game if you have skyrim on steam
really good
so the queen's monarchical authoritarianism and self righteousness splintering her people in different ways is way more important to the world than the ecological sense
cool beanicles
cannibalism actually
the queens weird
Only owned Skyrim Elder Scrolls on Xbox360, and didnāt play it cause I was 9
the queen is in fact weird
i promise you wont get traumatized when you play it
does that really matter anyways š§
Yes i want an accurate map
non-human minds amiright
Iām not a 9 year old anymore, and I donāt get scared of anything at all ever
not scared neccesarily
you should try it
or not
cant always have accuracy in a game built with prayers and hopes
the accurate map doesnt particularly contribute to gameplay or narrative in a meaningful way, does it
happy birthday
it just feels good to have
why is there a fuckass jungle right next to the snow biome
oh tyty
š¤·āāļø
you can explain the snow biome originally wasnt cause of theo
true
why doesnt the snow melt
is it magic
has to be
yea its to keep nesaak safe from corruption
theorick goes "lemme freeze this to make sure the corruption doesnt get out"
why cant we just
right before he goes nuts
the what
is this a reference to something
oh
oh
i dont play terraria i grew up with legos
š
that being said what part of a 'realistic' industrial revolution would you want to include
theres a cut off point for how much you can realistically put in a game
the technology is very
no game could capture reality to the scale reality actually happens in
just say it poorly and get to the point over time
and computers arent anywhere else
antikythera?
and other societies arent learning from or stealing corkian tech and developing their own
theyre just buying it from corkus
and also
how is there computers and electrical devices and no steam power
in corkus
they skipped an entire step
hm? there's a lot of steam powered things
fruma is on the right track
theres no TRAINS
like wtf
No steamships
and corkus has
like no military either
ok what arbitrary evolution path do you want to follow here
no real naval force
a real one
seaskipper alone is enough
electromagic
thats what its called
HOW CONVENIENT
so ONNLLLYYY the corkians can use electromagic
and nobody else can learn it
everyone technically can
nobody else can copy and utilize it
ava proved that
everyone can technically learn electromagic
yes indeed if magic exists the technology progress would be entireley different
there is a quest, in game
yeah then why arent they
where a non corkus citizen who is an entirely diferent species
ok quick question do you know how to speak korean
did we just
NOT discover gunpowder
theres even resources online
outside of fruma
people dont learn electromagic because there's not a lot of open venues to learn it
swords should be irrelevant then
cuz we have cannons i think
yeah why do we have cannons and not rifles or even muskets at least
you're just casually skipping over that distribution and availability is a large part of a techniuqe being distributed
magic is more convineniant ig
no, however they could pay corkus for knowledge and translations
bringing a gun to magic fight
oh yeah
that luke guy
has a gun
i think guns arent that common in wynn and gavel n shit
its only been the guards using it in fruma
they should be
the highly xenophobic, isolationist island state which just recently opened its borders to humans only?
losing out on allat money for xenophobia
maybe people in general just not use guns cause the powerscaling is so high that bullets bounce off of lvl 1 zombies (obviously not but its a thought)
if you wanna consider, archer proves that guns and magic can be used together
or maybe its more complicated
LMFAO
that happens incredibly often, what are you talking about
maybe guns are looked down upon as barbaric idk
they could actually have the budget to stop the robots and fallen factory
thats bullshit tho
half of the reason the opium war started on both sides was mutual xenophobia
doesnt stop people ig
you can try to figure that money is the ruler of everything but that just isn't the case
exactly
it was the want for imperialized land what
maybe its just old content clashing because it does make sense to have a lot of guns
but a lot of mobs need to be updated
to be fair thereās an ocean between Wynn and Gavel
get china addicted to opium and then we can divide their land and imperialize it just like africa
I can see guns in the Wynn province but they wouldnāt likely be widespread overseas
if you want me to get into the intricacies of it i can
that anyone can swim across
yes that was one of their strategies but pls
you sure about that
Itās still a long distance
like the whole thing on the spheres of influence
there was a highly restrictive trading system in china which strictly controlled tea at the time
at minmum its still like several kilometers wide
yes its calm enough to be swam in
eurocentric trade by the EATC was an additional factor
I suppose it comes down to whether the map is to scale lol
it'll depend on the endurance but you can swim in that shit lmfao
it'll be easier by ship ofc
right but are they ENTIRELY xenophobic and isolationist like corkus
can you swim several hundred meters without stop
but even if it was solely this, this is also a case of xenophobia restricting monetary flow
they were pretty damn close, yeah
nga my point is it can be swam on
if it can be swam on easily despite the distance, then its way easier to navigate by boat
i feel like we should update corkus as a whole, the separatists are clearly a larger storyline
oh ok
it seems like the only industrialized nations despite some being like that for decades are fruma and maybe corkus
you cant possibly gatekeep EVERYTHING
well if you have magic obvs technology would evolve differentley
corkian nationalism has potential but every time wynn tries to write a racism plotline it's always "these two races HATE each other and they're going to RACE WAR about it"
you cant deny that
basil pfp saying nga š„
If you think about it, the wyverns and horses were bred to create those T-Rex looking mfers in Fruma
Gavel has a small degree of technology. The issue is most of it we have details on is military
thats canon its in the lore
its strange when u realize the industrialization of corkus and fruma were completely unrelated to one another (the corkians left fruma before soosu industrialized the region)
Does quartron ring a bell?
are humans just more innovative
i can imagine gavel shunning technology out of principle cuz theyre naturally better at magic than humans
Now, did the Avoe come out naturally, or did a random freaky human did some shit with the bird?
do villagers not attempt to invent technology like that
is that human supremacy i hear? nice try, corkian nationalist
quartron is more golemancy than technology imo
does the quartron count
They might not have a need for most of it
it seems like humans are just more intelligent in wynncraft
the canonical reason is that villagers are lazy
nah, llevigar is also pretty industrialized, or at least has the potential to
im not kidding
but like
Golemancy is in the weird gray area between technological automation and magic
remember that grookwarts quest
look at all their cities
or maybe cuz gavel has magic they just innovate on magic instead of tech
well, I don't think we know who was responsible for the first round of technological advancement after 900 AP
are the villagers just like the fucking amish
like we cant deny if we had magic our tech would develope ALOT differentley
Nah, the villagers in Gavel were just bogged down in a war with the Orcs
you can create incredible cities and still not particularly care about industrialisation until it rams you in the face
Thereās a whole genre of fiction about this
not untrue tho
fruma could take over the world and im saying that with confidence
Llevigar has a magical reactor and is building mechs
humans just create incredible things given the chance.
Iām agreeing with you, not disagreeing
can someone explain the mirror realm section of ensemble of hope?
theres an alternate reality out there where fruma is able to invade wynn and then most of the rest of the world
troms and corkus would be hard
thats abt it
our society is more aware of our microscopic scale than wynn people are btw
Two can see possibilities. She's showing you around two possibilities
oh wait i wrote that lmfao
??
also the stereotypical fantasy which wynn began as tends to capture what the respective country of origin deems as its 'mythic past'
Itās important for us to remember that Corkian electromagic does also use magical principles - itās in the name
i feel like the people in this thread want indurstrialization to be historically accurate to our world when magic alone basically rips the chance of this ever happening, it would be similar but NEVER accurate
and wynn is set with castles and rolling plains, romantic farmsteads and dashing heroes
people actually wrote about that??
I mean no? Fruma couldn't fully invade the world without having to deal with the corruption in Wynn
Wartorn world, an alt history where fruma goes on a crusade to purge light and darkness from the world
send me it
lowkey
id lvoe to work with you on it
the dagons and dwarves in Gavel would most certainly pose a threat
Itās just that Maxie is absolutely fucking washed at casting by hand
posted my writing on the forum https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/the-wartorn-world-alternate-history.324769/
Cat steve
Well, the corruption keeps wynn weak yk
damn
Yeah but also keeps Fruma bogged down on it
dude if they had the same awareness as we do there would probably be non-focus users everywhere
i dont doubt that fruma could take over
meow
they could put full military force into wynn
because if you attack one area, you're practically abandoning another theatre of war
but also this kinda feels like "why doesnt ross, the biggest friend, simply eat the other ones"
DUDE THIS IS ALREADY PEAK
i mean theyd get there eventually, we just arent there yet
IVE THOUGHT ABT THIS SO MUCH
The War of the Realms is the main storyline of Wynncraft and the name of the conflict between the forces of Light and Darkness, which has been raging on since the very beginning of time. The war is mainly fought in a plane beyond the normal world, the Plane of Influence, where the Realms of Light and Darkness exist. However, every action taken i...
3000 AP
is wynn included with fruma
in that diagram
Fruma is war, Wynn is in the Middle
Gavel is the light, which got fucked up because of LARI
ig big gov is stiffling advancement just like irl
so its gavel as light, wynn/fruma as war, silent expanse and dern as dark
@signal bough
silent expanse is only the road to dern specifically
its sorta like a gradiant
basil is not my personality lmfao
wdym fruma IS war
we're sliding into the dark
just my prefered pfp
The Realm of War is one of the three realms known to exist on the Plane of Influence parallel to the physical plane, alongside the Realm of Light and the Realm of Darkness. It is the manifestation of the Light and Dark's hatred of one another and their conflict over the physical plane, the War of the Realms, representing the "equilibrium" state ...
thats why i said dern
you said silent expanse and dern
I dont think so
I mean their queen is, No?
wrong the portal leads to the road to dern, and once it comes out in seven years we have to wait 21 years (bloomi, morgor) and then dern will release
realm of dark update when?
true!
it's soaked in war but not war itself
the queen is also kinda just a representation of war
Or am i completely misunderstanding Two's explanation?
Fruma is disconnected from war of the realms conflict, only thing keeping them involved is the queen ofc
when we go through the portal we'll go to the road to the road of dern and get the even more silent expanse and the eldritcher outlookier
and then the road to the road to the road to dern
well actually two is the witch from that one fairytale about poisoned apples
infinite wynn content farm
and she gone through alot of mirrors
Two is a number
Fruma is like the realm of war in that the queen rules over it and it's bathed in her influence but the land and people are not of her
yeah we dont know her real name
anyways speaking of the silent expanse i wish the devs would spend an update fleshing out the ruined olmic city
because so many people just skip by that part
some fun facts about this alt history:
- bob almost single handedly stopped the Fruman invasion from ever getting past Ragni, but not even he can handle volley after volley of rifle fire
- Troms remains the last free city in Wynn, fending off multiple Fruman sieges
- Corkus has been purposely covered up by the Fruman government because their existence proved that the government lied about the terrorist plot in the industrial district
and its probably one of the coolest parts of wynn's lore
'Two' is a nickname, and nicknames are for friends, and Tooth Two the Second is no friend of mine
it would be cool if in the palace you could enter the rift to the realm of war just like how you enter the realm of light and have it br somewhat explorable
nexus of war is just the spire
outside of the raid
Troms surviving thus far is a fucking miracle btw
A lot of plot armor
troms has a lot going for it location wise
so i dont think its so unlikely
its surrounded by mountains on three sides, literally entrenched into solid rock
and it has a sweeping river covering one flank
Troms chances of going down are very low
oh absolutely, it turns out getting siege weaponry across a jungle landscape while being picked off by skirmishers heavily dampens morale
troms is damn near impossible to siege
Troms is old ass content tho
and the path there is thickly covered in crocodiles
yeah
they could prob just blow up the passage
I think Troms will be starved out first
and then Fruma would have to fight Rickeo
yeah about that
watch every fallen warrior troll on them
Fruma has the resources, but since the Queen died, I think it'll get divided into its sovereigns
but to be fair it was a lack of communication between Fruman forces that saved Troms, and Fruma isnt making that mistake again
how exactly does troms get food
instant implosion of troms
i dont remember a single farm in there
Cannibalism
probably the passage
they have a pond with fish
Inbred fish, never thought I'd see the day.
maybe the soldiers bring pigman pork
the jungle provides
they close to the farms near the pigmen ravine anyways
piggyman
uhhhh idk
so you set up a blockade on the passage and then they fucking die
my headcanon is they get food from the entire jungle
they have a lumberyard and convoys with lumber llamas, and that feels like a good enough implication that they export stuff to ragni
if you're insistent on making war, sure
also it's not likely that the jungle would provide
Also chicken, do you think Fruma will collapse and be split into several regions among its Sovereigns, or will they just get a new leader to keep everything somewhat stable?
they bungle
so if they have a blockade on the passage and then some forces positioned in the jungle with KOS rules for all tromsian people they could starve them out
wait is bungle a real word
I'm hoping that the Former will occur and Fruma is just a loose alliance of nations
troms is built different (they likely have months' worth of food, plus access to the entire jungle and trade with the Iboju tribes)
not really likely, considering most jungle plants arent edible and even the ones that are are extremely seasonal
This has never led to something good
the jungle is so isolated
colonize the iboju tribes
what could go weong
unless you like eating bugs or leaf litter
wrong
Fruma tried, turns out displacing the tribes and burning their villages made for some pretty veangeful guerrilla fighters
and also you cant really farm in cleared jungle soil because the soil itself is very nutrient poor
after apotheosis? Zhiraok and the Canopy have too much power
random crazy olmic race members occasionally leaping out at travelers like mushroom abusers
a lot of the nutrients are locked in the living plants themsleves
and the leaf litter
vietnam war all over again
slash and burn!!!
š«
yeah hack and slash
So prolly one united region still?
and also you cant hunt for a huge city consistently because the large animal population will just collapse
sooooooo they got fried?
weāre acting like the tribes and olmic people have gunpowder weaponry
shoot them before they can attack you
Olmic battallion coming to rescue Troms from the third Fruman siege
omlic people have fking magic summoning a mfing meteor shower
well, you'll have a central govt that should be able to unify the province
the tribes? Nah, they made sure 90% of Fruma's forces never left the jungle alive
me personally coming in and soloing the entire fruman convoy with 1 hp grandmother sharpshooter (i am killed instantly by a moorbadger)
nah they straight up gonna ask them if they got any shrooms/meteors before attacking them š
im sure fruma has developed some antimagic things considering the history of their province
If we ever get Two as a bossfight, I promise I'll hold her back for 30 seconds guys, to be crushed under 1,300 pounds of Thigh Force will be my last stand
anti magic?
The fight will be my Waterloo
black clover?
what

theres bound to be some defense to magic
do you think two has a face under that freaky mask
we are talking about fruma invading wynn and THIS is your contribution??
30 seconds is wild š
YES
I WILL DELAY HER FOR 30 SECONDS SO THAT YALL CAN PREPARE
sonion
fruma aint ever invading wynn, they see the land as a cultivation field at best
FUCK IT, I CAN SURVIVE 30 HOURS
she's going to throw you halfway into a mirror then shut it off
10 minute rest inbetween
she's going to gojo you between shards of possibilities
theyll just keep sending recruits and soon trojan horses of corruption devils until the land is eventually exhausted of fighting forces
here we go again
It'll be the best 30 seconds of my life fr
and then they burn it all down
those two things kinda go hand in hand
Its a good way to pause things y'know
wouldnt some of them want to PURGE and CLEANSE the areas of the world they see unpure
especially if it could be valuable
i think whatever forum you got this idea from is hurting you
yearg the reason i made is that by 900 AP, Fruma learned of Bob's success and realized he will either become powerful enough to challenge Fruma or will fall and Wynn succumbs to darkness, and Fruma did not want either scenario to play out
?
im gonna go shower and then ill read that cool story
thanks ben
With the blessing of King Ragni, i promise that I can hold off the Fruman military for 30 seconds by challenging Two to a duel, and being crushed by 1,300 pounds of sheer force by the thighs

ur responding to urself
I know
i swear im not suggesting a wynncraft holocaust
something more like the crusades?
the voices are telling u to hold off on the freakiness or something
well I guess if we're not using our filters today
do you think just the men in house Nasin have large cup sizes?
Oh i have my filter on today
dude
idk man i dont really trust the wynn writers to treat an ethnic purge story with as much nuance as it requires regardless
I mean, i think Zhiraok's cup size is a 34 double D?
Listen I'm not gay
they did this with the doguns and that whole storyline is like fisher price baby's first race war kind of writing
I'm into women sure
a wynncraft holocaust??? didnt we alr have that with twain or smth? I think this was there at some point in the story
theyre all unnaturally large, i have no idea why majin is so much bigger than any other character outside of fruma
OH YEA NEMRACT RAIDS
its where he stores his magic
I think its wild the Sui, Two, and Rex absolutely mogs the Queen of Fruma
no, Zhiraok is larger than Majin
i mean this aint really ethnic raid but like we did get almost all of ancient nemract absolutely massacred by charon
Zhiraok mogs every dude in Fruma
I MEANT HIS HEIGHT BOI
Zhiraok mogs every dude
yo why are we discussing yaoi in the lore discussion
majin is freakishly tall how did he get like that
it's the high heels
Nah, not King Ragni
stilts for shoes
thats what i said the custom model heights bring up a lot of questions
yeah but "old nation is wiped out" isnt the same as the kind of like... systematic persecution, discrimination, and propoganda which leads to an ethnically based massacre
YEAH THEY'RE NOT STILTS OR SHOES HE'S JUST LIKE THAT
the dogun storyline sorta hints at it with one single ass line about spreading propoganda about the doguns
majin had his bones shattered and then relengthened
ah
yeah there's plenty of places in wynn which were just wiped out via the machine of war
well zhiraok is still a head bigger than anyone else outside of fruma
majin is a bonesmasher
Bak'al's anger and war made him shorter
so they become souls bosses?
and then the doguns proceed to perform a cultist ritual to summon a big monster on the dwarves (i think, my memory a bit crappy)
honestly looks like that
accurate ig, but he would use magic for it
or maybe Bak'al was a manlet beforehand
oh, you know, because something something "who's to say who was really in the wrong in the race war where one side was systematically obliterated"
the dwarves and doguns storyline is very messy
and his post scion height is actually a massive increase
like almost all of wynncraft needs a rewrite atp
fruma is the standard to which i think wynn should be held because a lot of fruma quests are really good
we need a main storyline
lowk just like destroy all the dwarves like they lowk kinda the problem
we need more storylines in general
that explains basic concepts like magic lore we didnt get till fruma
what the fuck prompted that response
theres no reason we learn about talents and weaves in fruma
nah the problem is kinda that like - the dwarves after the centuries also have a legitimate stake in the land because the kids of the colonisers dont share the blame in doing what their ancestors did, and their 'perpetuation' isn't the same as the founders'
like. the dwarves who live in those cities are just civilians and they deserve their homes just as much as the doguns do
i think you could write a really cool political thriller storyline with the setup we have in the dwarves and doguns storyline
breh
people dont care as long as there's interspecies yaoi
i am in fact a fan of the interspecies yaoi
Chat whose the zestiest man in all of wynn
majin
i am a fan of interspecies eldritch horror romance too
all of wynn
We gonna put them up against Majin
wait were Korzim and Axelus in a romantic relationship
nah
they were roommates
The Dwarves were on the verge of extinction as well. In 0 AP when the Collosi were acting up, the Ahms region was destroyed and the Canyon became incredibly unstable. All of the Dwarves' underground holds were destroyed, with the sole exception of Thanos. The Molten Heights, for whatever reason, was not as affected by the Colossus as the rest of the region, so the Dwarven survivors naturally went there
axelus didnt have the fire resist potions
wheres the interspecies dogun-dwarf yaoi???
How did a political major like you get interested in Yaoi
why are we talking about the cup sizes of fruman men
there was a guy on another server CONSTANTLY posting yaoi
Listen i understand that we dabble in dudes kissing from time to time
because ct decided to make custom models that are very questionable in lore
he has a nulli build with 4500 fire ele def
Me personally, I support Yuri and Tomboys
I support all the gays, even you
Majin literally has the smallest cup size in all of the sovereigns
i love majin rainbow superstar strike
Excluding Tasim because he's not even modeled, just a minecraft skin
i dont think u seem to get it, everything in fruma is queer coded
Majin: asexual
Queen: Transgender
Gikyo: nonbinary
Tasim: gay
Rex and Sui Yuri is so real
im still surprised that people ship gikyo and majin and not majin and zhiraok
i remember a lot more than one line
Majin is probably raging romantic asexual
those two are so bad for each other that it physically disgusts me to think about them in the same room. i prefer zhiraok and xao
not just raging dawg, that man must be ferocious
maybe i read too much toxic yaoi
personally my ship is yuman and yusanu
i always clockedd majin as bisexual
but i expected everyone to be all over this
Lemme hook you up on some Yuri bro
radioactive yaoi
those two's yaoi is so catastrophic it's a major id
arent they related
ship as in kinship right
nah not my cup of tea
maybe
you mean kinship
i wish zeph's relationship got built up more
