wiat

split mortar
#

Like almost everything high tech is from draedon

thorny marlin
#

ehh doesn't matter

split mortar
#

Plus the cal 1800s is vastly different from ours

thorny marlin
split mortar
#

Since we use a religious thing irl

#

And cal word uses azafure

thorny marlin
#

azafure is like this really epic place in hell that got fucking destroyed

split mortar
#

Yharon reborn as egg somewhere 1700

thorny marlin
#

yharon revives himself in 10 years

split mortar
real silo
#

dev statements

split mortar
#

Oh

thorny marlin
#

that would mean yharim would be around 100 when his crusade would've started

real silo
#

it doesn't take place in OUR late 1800s

thorny marlin
#

😭

split mortar
real silo
#

yharim started when he was in his 20s or something

split mortar
#

Yharim born in 1700

#

Yeah

real silo
#

which went on for 100 years

#

Around that

split mortar
#

The crusade is like a century long thing

thorny marlin
#

wait

split mortar
#

Give it take a decade

thorny marlin
#

draedon says yharim's crusade started in 1781

split mortar
#

Oh didn’t know we had an exact number

real silo
#

that's when yharim got thrown into lava

split mortar
#

Pretty sure it’s around 1880 when we start though idk how reliable

real silo
#

and when yharon's egg hatched

true hatch
#

That drags out the murder of the Auric Dragons a very, very long time.

And makes Yharim... relatively old for when the crusades started

split mortar
#

Yeah yharim was like a adult

thorny marlin
real silo
#

god era started 700 years ago

split mortar
#

When crusade started

true hatch
#

Like, if it's late 1880s ish when we assume the game takes place, that makes Yharim 30-40 when he gets tossed into the lava

spring helm
#

yeah the dragon genocide wasn't an organized thing, it was a bunch of people over a few centuries claiming the power of auric souls for themselves

#

so it took a while

thorny marlin
#

draedon says yharim's crusade started in 1781

thorny marlin
true hatch
#

Do we have enough lore of the Auric Dragons to know if they were like... generally good or bad?

thorny marlin
#

yharim got thrown into lava and started an entire crusade in the same day 😭

split mortar
#

Wait yharon reviving every decade means for multiple tens of revives he just got crushed as an egg or something

real silo
#

we know fire dragon isn't the nicest guy

#

and storm dragon is a chill dude

split mortar
real silo
#

but besides that we know nothing

true hatch
#

They did try to kill moonlord who was an existential threat to humanity

split mortar
#

But it’s providence so it’s questionable how them being righteous means anything

true hatch
real silo
#

moon lord was an existential threat to literally everyone not just the dragons

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

because moon lord tried to kill everything

#

including the dragons

real silo
#

them rushing to kill ml tells nothing about their personalities

true hatch
#

True, true

split mortar
#

Moonlord just arrived and started hating immediately

spring helm
#

professional hater

#

channel your inner kana

thorny marlin
#

yharim's crusade started in 1781

#

what the fuck

true hatch
#

How many gods are still alive (That we know of) as of the current story?

One? Or is Providence still alive as well

real silo
#

two

split mortar
#

Three when we start

#

If we include a zombie

real silo
#

provi and slime god

spring helm
#

im not sure if ravager counts

#

also xeroc

thorny marlin
spring helm
#

and silva kinda

real silo
#

xeroc is the third yea

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

ravager was practically already dead

split mortar
#

3-4 gods

true hatch
#

We kill Slime God perma when we kill Queen Slime

split mortar
#

Yeah

real silo
#

I thought that said when we started mb

thorny marlin
#

yharim is a evil person since

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

he killed good gods

split mortar
real silo
#

Then the only gods that remain are silva and xeroc

thorny marlin
#

yharim commtied genocide

#

so yeah

sly bloom
#

Based

real silo
#

two of the strongest gods too

split mortar
#

I wouldn’t count yharon alive during the decade to revive so I wouldn’t consider silva alive rn

thorny marlin
#

and killed a lot of good gods

true hatch
# thorny marlin he killed good gods

Who also might have killed good dragons for their power.

Which IDK how good that makes them overall. Like, the whole "Are the gods generally good, and were the gods generally good" thing is kind of a mess.

Yharim is still a bad person though

thorny marlin
#

and a bunch of evil ones

spring helm
real silo
#

just that they remained XD

thorny marlin
split mortar
#

Crimson and corruption bad gods

real silo
thorny marlin
#

ok so what if you had to kill a dragon because if not your loves ones would die

true hatch
real silo
#

perfect ascension + nature elemental + domain of life

true hatch
real silo
#

she's really fucking strong

thorny marlin
#

and then you become a benevolent god

split mortar
#

They’re still like hundreds of minds trying to cling to life

true hatch
#

Killing a dragon doesn't make you a god by default

You have to deliberately consume their Auric Soul to ascend to godhood. It doesn't just happen when you kill one

split mortar
#

Silva is atleast a very good support

true hatch
split mortar
#

Yeah

spring helm
#

to be fair, they did also jump yharim

#

mutual jumping

thorny marlin
#

it's not like

sly bloom
#

Counter-jumping

split mortar
#

Yharim just had the better team mate

thorny marlin
#

devourer of gods was still working with yharim

true hatch
#

DoG just saw free snacks lol

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

did they get murked by dog before we started our journey

split mortar
#

Pretty sure it was recent

spring helm
#

i dont think DoG and Yharim ever broke up

split mortar
spring helm
#

officially at least

true hatch
split mortar
#

Braelor stuck in distortion and statis gave an arm and leg to signus to escape

thorny marlin
#

since yharim was datign yharon

spring helm
#

they had a work relationship

thorny marlin
#

aight

split mortar
true hatch
thorny marlin
split mortar
split mortar
#

No gods or anything

#

One is just blessed by a god but still normal

thorny marlin
#

braelor and statis got murked by dog and both lived but like

#

brealor got trapped and statis got crippled

spring helm
true hatch
#

Also

Xeroc is the guy who does the narration for Boss Rush, right?

Why the fuck does he talk about being friends with Yharon then, unless he's referencing like, before his ascension when he was just a monk

real silo
split mortar
tall delta
split mortar
#

iirc

real silo
thorny marlin
#

they broke up

real silo
spring helm
thorny marlin
#

yharim visited draedon so draedon could upgrade his armor since he also got murked by braelor and statis

spring helm
#

the one boiled by calamitas?

thorny marlin
#

and then devourer of gods murked statis and braelor

tall delta
real silo
#

cal turned tyrian into fish stock

split mortar
#

There’s two from illmeris

spring helm
#

so the one boiled by calamitas

split mortar
#

Tyrian and ontonilou

real silo
#

both died there

tall delta
#

yeah tyrian

woeful patio
split mortar
#

Thought it was just one

tall delta
#

nope he is alive

thorny marlin
#

how did amidias survive

real silo
#

smart guy

tall delta
#

He told me in a dream

split mortar
true hatch
real silo
#

he hid in a clam

#

cal couldn't beat the clam

#

it's that simple

woeful patio
#

Clamity

sly bloom
#

Calamity cannot surpass Clamity

split mortar
tall delta
#

but yeah he is alive apparently??

true hatch
#

Question:

Do you think the PC is an innately good or bad character based on what they've done so far in the lore?

real silo
#

Never heard of this

untold bluff
#

Clamity

sly bloom
#

Someone post the image

real silo
#

pins

split mortar
tall delta
real silo
#

Ah

tall delta
#

Idk which one

real silo
#

I evidently don't watch these things

true hatch
#

I meant you personal opinions lol

Not like, the general thing

tall delta
#

same!

real silo
#

That is pretty interesting

thorny marlin
real silo
#

I hope we get to see him hiding in some cave

thorny marlin
#

idk

sly bloom
#

I think Yharim's pretty cool actually

true hatch
#

I like to believe that Yharim has actually like, mellowed out.

We're still probably going to kill him though, so we can go kill Xeroc

sly bloom

Mass deicide is based

Got me there

thorny marlin

yharim is literally trying to gaslight us in the lore items

he's tryingt o convince us that all gods are bad

spring helm

so we can go kill xeroc

thorny marlin
woeful patio
spring helm

punishment

sly bloom

Alas, canon has decided that Xeroc's too strong for us to kill

How many times you gonna post a cursed terraria/calamity images

Weird ass onyx kinsman art right there

yharim is a pretty cool villain

#

he commited genocides

untold bluff

to kill gods

sly bloom
thorny marlin
#

what hte fuck

#

and then

untold bluff
#

Yharim, I remember you're reign

thorny marlin
sly bloom
#

Does the Calamity world canonically have a Geneva Convention equivalent

thorny marlin
#

no

sly bloom
#

Welp, that's just war then

thorny marlin
#

it's do whatever the fuck kills your enemy

#

chemical weapons are allowed

sly bloom
#

Hell yeah

split mortar
#

So yharim is basically Canada in war

thorny marlin
#

you don't have to treat prisoners of war with basic human rigihts

thorny marlin
sly bloom
#

Without a Geneva-equivalent, Yharim basically does standard warfare stuff

true hatch
thorny marlin
split mortar
#

And hopefully kill noxus

thorny marlin
#

he still has lore too give out

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

you don't know that

#

since since

#

you can't fight yharim

true hatch
sly bloom
#

I'm going to beat up Yharim and turn him into a town NPC like Calamitas

sly bloom
thorny marlin
#

I don't think he lies about the rest of the lore items

true hatch
split mortar
thorny marlin
sly bloom
split mortar
#

He is regretful but not for the correct things iirc

thorny marlin
#

he's regretful because he hurt the people that were close to him

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

not because he regrets the genocide

#

monster genocide this is my undertale

true hatch
#

I mean, he does seem kinda regretful for all the non-gods he killed

thorny marlin
#

i fell from a cave from mount ebott

split mortar
#

Don’t think we know enough about silva

sly bloom
#

Worshipper genocide helps with god genocide because worship empowers gods in Calamity IIRC

thorny marlin
#

i faced a evil talking flower in the pot

pliant ruin
#

We also knwo like

true hatch
#

And working with Draedon/DoG, cause they're just... outright evil

pliant ruin
#

Nothinga bout ravager

thorny marlin
#

killing ravager is a mercy killing at this point

pliant ruin
#

Atleast not about how they were prior to turning into

#

that

sly bloom
#

DoG's evil, Draedon's just amoral

pliant ruin
#

The only and i really have to emphatize this

#

individual god we know with certainty is evil is Providence

#

which

#

ironically

split mortar
#

Current zombie Ravager should but we don’t know normal god if sacrifice

pliant ruin
#

is one of the only ones Yharim didn't manage to kill, lol

true hatch
pliant ruin
#

God of Sacrifices

#

Not necromancy

split mortar
#

Well they absorbed the dragon of death, not much they could get

true hatch
pliant ruin
#

❌

#

"Sacrifice" has Alot of Meanings depending on the context and it does not just mean Killing People

true hatch
#

Since that takes the "Neutral" dragon of death, and turns it into a solely negative thing (when correlated with death)

thorny marlin
#

yharim didn't manage to kill the gods we fought because they ran away

hot valve
#

Yeah the dragon of death could not necessarily be evil

#

Death gives meaning to life

split mortar
#

Gods are always adjacent to the dragon they absorbed

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

Also Yharim very much dosen't seem to regret any of the deaths he caused

#

He regrets a few things yes but the entire 300000 Billion that were Killed isn't part of it

thorny marlin
#

i'm pretty sure yharim is only regretful because all the people close to him that help him left

true hatch
hot valve
sly bloom
#

Elemental

true hatch
#

Like, he outright says "Yeah I could have treated them well, but I didn't because I was just completely emotionally ruined at that point and didn't care"

pliant ruin
#

I believe it's more so that he quote on quote "Regrets" losing the alliance of the dragon cultists which would be right up his alley when it comes to regretting things but let me check

#

Yep

#

it's exactly that

thorny marlin
pliant ruin
#

Yharim notably seems to only "regret" things when said things cause him to lose allies

#

And in this case it's also that because it seems like losing the dragon cult's comradery is what causes him to go :( here

split mortar
#

Plus polter is said to be “the crux of my failur” so I think he may also be referring to dog making him worse

So he may also be shifting blame

pliant ruin
#

so honestly probably mostly innocent people lol

thorny marlin
#

yharim said that dog was recruited late in hte war

sly bloom
split mortar
#

And polter is from late in the war

#

Plus I said shifting blame

pliant ruin
thorny marlin
#

so the things dog must've told him must've been fuckig crazy to mention it directly

#

yharim already commited mass genocide

pliant ruin
#

But now that i think about it it is very very interesting how

#

Yharim

#

known Manipulator Gaslighter Girlbosser etc

thorny marlin
#

i'm not sure what could be worse then that

hot valve
# split mortar Not really

The fact that we have limited time means everything we do and choose in our lives are more impactful as a result
Life is a story with a beginning, death just gives it an end

That’s why a god of death or dragon of death in any type of media doesn’t have to inherently be evil, since death itself isn’t inherently evil

God of sacrifices sounds much less pleasant though lmao

pliant ruin
#

Almost exclusively

#

Seems to regret things

#

when said things make him lose powerful allies

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

genocide is pretty much the worse thing you can do in war

thorny marlin
#

it's not like dog told him to commit genocide since yharim already did that

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

he loves bees more then losing powerful allies

#

confrimed

hot valve
#

I suppose those are just different mindsets then, fair enough

sly bloom
#

Yharim has a sense of morality, slightly warped it may be

thorny marlin
#

genocide is only "slightly" messed up

sly bloom
#

Standard war practice without a Geneva Convention

split mortar
#

Yharim says dog was when his negligence was born so I think this hints at yharim blaming dog for getting him to be so apathetic towards those in the dungeon and the dragon cult

Maybe dog did get him to or maybe he didn’t and it was just a coincidence but I def think he is trying to shift blame from himself to dog for polterghast and is acting all sad cause he lost dragon cult

thorny marlin
#

don't you have to go out of your way to commit a genocide

true hatch
#

I mean, the fact that Yharim can even pretend to reflect on his past failures means he can at least acknowledge them.

And no matter what you think of him, he was trying to be a hero at the start of the crusades. He definitely failed, but he legitimately was trying to fight for something

sly bloom
pliant ruin
#

I think Yharim's moral compass is so fucked beyond belief after 80+ years of killing that he genuinely cannot recognize any of his mistakes unless said mistakes directly result in him losing things that would benefit him, such as his allies
He does seem to genuinely regret things, but he also seems completely and utterly ignorant of both how bad his actions are and the fact his most terrible actions (The entire genocide) are ones he dosen't recognize as evil
In every situation Yharim regrets something, it correlates to him losing his allies, so i think while there is some genuine regret there, i also think it's partially a manipulation tactic to make himself seem better, one that might even come naturally to him without him realizing

pliant ruin
#

Yharim was never a hero

#

He was trying to be yes

hot valve
#

Yharim believes his cause is righteous
He is so sure that every god must die that to him it really doesn’t matter which ones are benevolent or not, to him they’re all evil

true hatch
pliant ruin
#

But both then and now

#

He thinks himself a hero

#

But right from the beggining he wasn't

thorny marlin
pliant ruin
#

Trying to be a hero? Absolute, yes, and in his eyes he still is

true hatch
pliant ruin
#

Actually a hero? No, his motivation was literally to kill every single god from the start

thorny marlin
pliant ruin
#

So it really dosen't matter if he was trying to be a hero if a hero in his eyes is equivalent to committing genocide

sly bloom
pliant ruin
#

Yes, he still thinks himself a hero, just a fallen one

#

One that failed his heroic mission

#

He dosen't seem himself as a evil or bad person

#

He sees himself as a failed hero

#

Which is a v important distinction to make

split mortar
#

When he is not much better then evil gods

hot valve
#

From the beginning he started with deplorable gods, killing those so vile that it was unquestioned as ‘the right thing to do’
It garnered support as a result- but it was a veil for his actual goal, which is to slaughter every god, without any exception

pliant ruin
#

^

#

Yharim didn't start with the evil gods because they were evil and then he got addicted to killing gods so he killed the good ones or something

#

He wanted to kill all of them from the start, but obviously, it's easier to get support from others when your actions are unquestionably good and their first impression of what gods are like is that of evil, tyrannic dictators

split mortar
#

Yeah the entire hallowed is proof he killed lots of good aswell

thorny marlin
#

when you kill the wall of flesh which yharim said was to store god essence

true hatch
# hot valve From the beginning he started with deplorable gods, killing those so vile that i...

But it's also worth noting that we don't know how truly good the actually 'good' Gods were, given that ascending to Godhood requires killing an Auric Dragon and consuming its soul.

Given we don't know how good the Auric Dragons were, we don't know if even the 'Good' gods were motivated by selfishness through killing already good dragons. But it could also be the other way around, as well

pliant ruin
#

❌

pliant ruin
#

First of all

#

There is no guaranteed they were ''motivated by selfishness"

#

They might've been doing it for the greater good

#

Secondly

hot valve
#

According to the devs themselves he killed a decent chunk of actual vile gods, a huge amount of morally grey gods, and a few truly benevolent gods

pliant ruin
#

Auric dragons weren't all good

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

the order of the evil biomes on your world is representive of yharim's killings

split mortar
#

Yeah I think the hallowed is neutral and good not just good

pliant ruin
#

Whilst i don't blame you for not knowing some things abt the narrative given the

#

unfinished state of the mod

thorny marlin
#

he killed the evil gods and didn't contain them so that's why you start with the corruption or crimson

true hatch
sly bloom
thorny marlin
#

then when he started killing the good gods he started containing their essences which is why the hallow comes after you kill wall of flesh

true hatch
true hatch
pliant ruin
#

But also you wrote like a paragraph based on the notion that the Dragons were Theoretically Good

#

Which

#

Respectfully

true hatch
#

Implies bias?

pliant ruin
#

Yep

#

I was about to say

hot valve
#

One thing I remember noted is that nearly everything about the dragons said in game is from Yharim’s extremely biased mindset lmao

sly bloom
#

Wall of Flesh + starting evil implies there were more evil gods than good ones

thorny marlin
pliant ruin
#

I don't mean to be Rude and i understand the calamity lore is unfinished rn so it's hard to know the full context of things but the way you've been saying stuff has kind of been giving Yharim Bias energy

thorny marlin
#

The lore items should NOT be taking at face value

#

they're from the main villain of the mod

pliant ruin
#

But at the very least you weren't anywhere near as dense as the usual Yharim Apologists so i tempered myself a bit

split mortar
hot valve
#

Yharim himself also gets a lot of his info on the dragons from the equally biased dragon Yharon

split mortar
#

Yeah

#

Yharon was prob among the most biased towards the dragons since they revived like every dragon hood or not

pliant ruin
#

Yharim is a banger character that is alot more complex than people think he is, and people think he's complex because he's a tragic morally gray villain or something when he really isn't

true hatch
#

Well, the god killing

pliant ruin
#

Some dragons were good

true hatch
#

A lot of what he did is still outright vile and unjustifiable

pliant ruin
#

Some were evil though

thorny marlin
#

the lore items are epic

pliant ruin
#

The entire calamity lore narrative has a core message

#

(or one of them anyways

#

that your identity dosen't make you good or bad

#

it's who you make of yourself as a person that does

#

so by proxy

#

dragons weren't inherently good or evil, neither were gods

pliant ruin
#

by labelling one of those sides as inherently good and the other as inherently evil, yharim himself became, well, evil

thorny marlin
#

wait

thorny marlin
real silo
#

stinky hallow

woeful patio
real silo
#

yharim doesn't want to admit that the gods that became the hallow were good

split mortar
true hatch
#

I mean, that could be the reason

They also just could have forgor

thorny marlin
hot valve
#

I think it’s very interesting that according to Yharim, Xeroc stole the soul of the weakened dragon of Light

While the events are not disclosed and it’s unclear if we’ll ever know, it’s honestly pretty likely the dragon willingly just told Xeroc to take the soul

But regardless of motive, this resulted in an outbreak of dragons slaughtered and souls absorbed

real silo
#

it's definitely gaslighting

warm gull
#

the hallow is explained in the wof lore

thorny marlin
true hatch
#

Also I don't like how cocky Xeroc is in the Boss Rush lore.

thorny marlin
#

i'm talking about dedicated lore item

sly bloom
#

Murdering Xeroc is okay

thorny marlin
#

the corruption crimson and the astral infection all have lore items

sly bloom

#

Holy shit it's the Flesh Prison from the hit game Ultrakilll

thorny marlin
#

yeah

#

but

warm gull
#

but yeah he doesn't explain that the gods in it were good

thorny marlin
#

he doesn't directly mention the hallow in the lore item

split mortar

Hang on, lemme find it

thorny marlin
#

what the fuck

split mortar
#

Bestiary is omniscient truth

warm gull
true hatch
thorny marlin
sly bloom
#

^

warm gull
#

he doesn't explain that the gods in the hallow were good in the wof lore

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

but he doesn't mention the hallow directly either

split mortar
#

Xeroc would have a lot more

thorny marlin
#

nor does it have a lore item

true hatch
warm gull
#

but he does mention where the released essence came from, which explains why the hallow exists

thorny marlin
#

he just says the wall of flesh was to store essence of gods

warm gull
#

then why did you giant x me

thorny marlin
#

which is why your main world evil also spreads when you beat wof

thorny marlin
#

by your logic the corruption and crimson wouldn't have lore items since they would be explained in wof lore

warm gull
#

right and I said that the hallow is explained in the wof lore

true hatch
#

Actually, is Demonshade Armour canon to the mod? Since it's a donor item?

warm gull
#

I didn't say it had a lore item

hot valve
#

No

warm gull
#

so we aren't disagreeing

hot valve
#

Demonshade is not canon

thorny marlin
split mortar
hot valve
#

Whenever yharim is added demonshade will be post yharim won’t it?

split mortar
thorny marlin
#

it's not like yharim starts directly talking about the hallow in the wall of flesh lore item

warm gull
hot valve
#

Unless that’s being changed

split mortar
thorny marlin
warm gull
#

this is semantics at this point

thorny marlin
#

the hollow is not explained my yharim

#

since it doesn't have a lore item

split mortar
#

And exo armour will be equal to demonshade

thorny marlin
#

the hallow being sealed in the wall of flesh doesn't count

warm gull
#

guh

thorny marlin
#

since the wall of flesh also releases your world evil

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

when you kill it

split mortar
#

His auric has rejection and exo tech

true hatch
#

Yes, but if something was stronger than Auric to use as a base, why use Auric

hot valve
split mortar
true hatch
hot valve
#

Thought anything made of shadowspec would be post game

thorny marlin
#

he just says the god's essences were stored in it

split mortar
# true hatch Rejection?

Yeah, when you touch the auric ore and get sent Mach 3 flying away

His armour can do that aswell

thorny marlin
#

that doesn't count has him direcly talking about the hallow

pliant ruin

@pliant ruin someone is trying to tell me that the hallow doesn't have a lore item because it's explained in the wall of flesh lore item

you are arguing with me over nothing

the hallow is not fucking explained here

Flawless is asking why a lore item doesn’t go as deep as the crimson and corruption lore items exist

warm gull
#

do you possess the ability to use context clues

thorny marlin

#

You going on about wof cause it has a small connection to hallow is nigh irrelevant

true hatch

I'm juat saying that the hallow's origin is explained by yharim

Are the Desert and Aquatic Scourges worms or serpents?

warm gull
#

I'm not saying he goes into depth about it specifically

real silo
#

They're scourges

sly bloom
#

Wall of Flesh notes that Hallow and the Evil are god essence stored in the meat wall with Context Clues™️. There's no distinct Hallow lore item, even though there's ones for the evils. The specifics of the Hallow are thus kept vague (Deliberately or not), contrasting the Evils.

Be happy my children

#

This argument is pointless

thorny marlin
warm gull
thorny marlin
#

the courpption and crimson were not stored in soemthing

#

so that's why they spread

spring helm
#

of course there's no hallow lore item, that would mean Yharim admits there were good gods

I didn't have an argument what are you talking about

calm patio
#

it was?

#

and yea

#

they didnt

true hatch
thorny marlin
#

yharim admits he ddin't contain the essences so that's why the corruption and crimson spread

true hatch
#

The Hallow also spreading once it's released:

real silo
#

a good chunk of it was stored inside waffle but there's still some leftovers

thorny marlin
#

the hallow was stored inside the wall of flesh instead of not being contained

real silo
#

That's why both hallow and evils do that stupid V thing that I hate

thorny marlin
#

so that's why it only starts spreading when you kill wof

true hatch
#

The Corruption and Crimson formed, to begin with, because Yharim just left the Gods corpses to rot after he killed them, which festered until forming the Evils

By the time he got around to killing Good gods, he'd already started storing their essence in the Wall of Flesh or feeding it to DoG

# sudden ruin or hint at how he ascended

Don't we already know this?

Like, I don't know if I'd call it common knowledge but I'm pretty sure his ascension was "Consumed an Auric Soul" like all the other gods. We don't know exactly how that's done (How do you eat a soul), but clearly it's not too hard to figure out given all the people who did it

But they were saving yharon to be consumed by yharim

yharim is friends with yharon
