noble falcon

no you're thinking of reaper shark
thats why he got so buff, so he can get his revenge on winter

thick slate
#

he also declared war on the US for no reason

wooden shadow
#

technically operation barbarossa started in june of 1941

#

Africa is canon to the world of Calamity confirmed

craggy sparrow
#

How Yharim could've won the conquest;

Do it yourself

#

Nah but seriously i think if he just had a tad of sanity he could've succeeded

#

Instead of aura farming and killing 5 gazillion people

thick slate
#

i could win if i was yharim

#

calamity hoi4 mod when

tall delta
#

this yharim man

#

i cant

#

not this stupud copypadta

#

say ignore the brimstone crags

leaden bridge
#

Keeping "ignore africa" unchanged is part of the joke im afraid

zenith geode
#

this is true

modest elk
#

are refights canon?

#

specifically Yharon but the others too

feral skiff
#

no

eager bluff
#

scals is

feral skiff
#

yeah but ONLY scal

raven brook
#

well not only scal

#

theres a few boss you can realistically refight

#

like queen bee

#

or eye of chtulhu

#

or both evil1s

modest elk
#

slime god?

eager bluff
#

no

woeful karma
#

no

#

king slime maybe

eager bluff
#

slime god is dead dead once you kill queen slime

woeful karma
#

theres gotta be more than one of those

eager bluff
#

king slime is functionally just a really really big slime so yeah not out of the question

modest elk
eager bluff
#

no

#

its ass is not fighting you again

woeful karma
#

slime god would need to be really stupid to fight you again after you whooped its ass the first time

eager bluff
#

canonically it got the jump on you and still got its ass beat

modest elk
#

I mean its still a slime…

eager bluff
#

no

woeful karma
#

and its singular speciality is running away

eager bluff
#

thats like saying yharon is just a really big bird

modest elk
#

im speaking biologically its probably not very intelligent

eager bluff
#

slime god is Smart remember it was a human and it has not lost that intelligence

leaden bridge
#

What if yharim was the us military and he bombed your city

woeful karma
#

that would be bad

leaden bridge
#

huh! Someone should do something about that, then

modest elk
#

I cant even think of an in game example thats like half of the biomes

but there's a few others that still make sense

tiny ninja present in every slime

king slimes are often the result of a kinsman funerary rite where they let their deceased's body be consumed by a slime as a way to return them to nature because balance and allat

went into another level of it

#

Ahhh
Hi guys
Quite a weird question
What would happen if Yharim (somehow) came to the past and faced Xeroc right before he arrived to Zerathros?
Who would win in a fight?

long bloom
#

yharim

#

easily

#

you're talking about pre ascension xeroc, yes?

light moth
#

Yeah

long bloom
#

yeah he was just

#

regular guy

light moth
#

Wasnt he already strong as hell while even being a mortal?

long bloom
#

pretty strong but nowhere even comparable to yharim

strong notch
light moth
#

Cuz, ahh, ya know, deadly wounded

strong notch
#

sry

light moth
#

Now I think about it
Has Yharim ever took into consideration that Zerathros could give Xeroc his power so he could take his responsibilities?

raven brook
#

you think yharim thinks about whether the things hes doing are morally correct

light moth
raven brook
#

bro blew up a city and killed thousands because 1 good god everyone liked was there

#

not even that he sent his child soldier to do it

light moth
#

Fair argument

errant swallow
#

were there good gods?

light moth
#

Yeah
The hallowed was generated out of good gods remains/souls

i mean

long bloom
#

another fallen for yharim propaganda..

#

he's so good at lying he manipulates people in real life

limpid saddle
#

But generally The Slime God & Silva are considered 'good Gods', alongside snail mf cutting me off with Ontonilou, Goddess Of Electricity, Tyrian, God Of The Sea, & Silva, Goddess Of Life

errant swallow
#

i mean

#

all i know

#

her dead body created the abyss

#

and abyss isnt fun

long bloom
#

no

errant swallow
#

that was what i was thinking

long bloom
#

her dead body created plants in the abyss

#

the actual trench existed long before

errant swallow
#

ohh

light moth
#

By the way
Have a question about introductory doc
Why is there mentioned the “You should question Yharim’s words”?
As.. well.. I want to believe that its better if lore reader finds it out themselves

split mortar
long bloom
errant swallow
#

was the ravager god good?

split mortar
light moth
mighty zenith
errant swallow
#

he was god of self sacrifise

split mortar
#

So yes

mighty zenith
#

which is fair because he's the only source of lore people usually read

#

its an issue with the way its implemented

errant swallow
long bloom
split mortar
# errant swallow what?

Xeroc is possibly why noxus or any other cosmic threat hasnt just
Dropped in
And ate the less organised gods

#

And instead uses dog

errant swallow
#

is the player evil?

split mortar
errant swallow
#

I WAS TYPING THAT IF SOMONE SENDS THAT

?

light moth

wha

Because the terrarian is YOU!

errant swallow

im talking in terms of people we kill during a playthrough

long bloom

i mean wof holds back the essence of gods

#

plantera is doing its own thing

light moth
split mortar
#

And also like its a plant

mighty zenith
#

you dont rly... kill people

limpid saddle
light moth
mighty zenith
#

the only PERSON you have to kill is cultist

#

but cultist is like

limpid saddle
#

Im pretty sure it's not even a carnivore it eats like, plankton

mighty zenith

#

yharon is NOT reasonable

errant swallow
#

im still confused on yharon morally

split mortar
#

Yharon is evil

long bloom
#

he's fucked

errant swallow
#

is the slime god a god

split mortar
#

Encouraged yharim the entire time

split mortar
errant swallow
#

i mean yeah

#

why is it so weak

mighty zenith
#

gods arent inherently powerful

long bloom
split mortar
errant swallow
#

it also doesnt have a lore item

mighty zenith
#

yeah it does

split mortar
#

Slime god does

long bloom
#

yes they do??

errant swallow
#

wait yeah?

#

can somone send

long bloom
#

it's on the wiki

errant swallow
#

also are the slime gods multiple or one

long bloom
#

and lore doc #1

long bloom

like providence

errant swallow
#

why did dog need to eat gods again

long bloom

#

Yharim does not know noxus

errant swallow
#

im saying its prolly not noxus

long bloom
#

?????

split mortar
errant swallow
#

why is noxus the answer to every dog related question

long bloom
#

because that's his boss??

split mortar
#

It cant really be anything but noxus as the boss of dog

errant swallow
#

i mean yeah but still

mighty zenith
#

cause the main reason DoG is even here at all is most likely noxus

errant swallow
#

it cant be the answer of EVERYTHING

long bloom
#

noxus is john distortion

mighty zenith
#

and its easy to answer because we dont know fuckall about noxus apart from DoG working for it

long bloom
#

he controls everything

light moth
errant swallow
#

was signus born in the distortion?

errant swallow
#

they are attuned

mighty zenith
long bloom
split mortar
errant swallow
#

how was it born

#

lol

mighty zenith
#

you really think yharim's second in command of the crusade wouldn't notice ANY of the attrocities?

mighty zenith
#

when everyone else did?

errant swallow
split mortar
light moth
split mortar
#

Yes

mighty zenith
#

yeah

long bloom
#

yeah

#

that's a whole ass person

mighty zenith
#

he's the one who told yharim of what happened to the dragons

split mortar
#

Whole person who has existed for millenia

mighty zenith
#

he's closer to a human than animal

errant swallow
#

yharon has prolly superhuman intelligence

light moth
#

Well..
That's shitty..
My friend, who considers him a good boy, would really be disapointed

errant swallow
errant swallow
mighty zenith
#

melting pizza tail

long bloom
errant swallow
#

prolly stronger thn most gods

#

meaning smarter too

mighty zenith
#

thats not how it works

long bloom
#

strength ≠ intelligence

#

what

mighty zenith
#

ravager is insanely strong yet dumb as bricks because its a zombie

split mortar
errant swallow
#

not what i was tryna say anyway

long bloom
#

guys albert einstein was super jacked

#

could beat mike tyson

errant swallow
#

is there any rebirth related thing in calamity verse?

mighty zenith
errant swallow
#

cuz if yharon is dragon of rebirth

#

there has to be a cycle of rebirth or smth

light moth
long bloom
#

necromancy magic is based on how yharon revived dragons

errant swallow
#

revived dragons?

mighty zenith
#

yharon's revival power was exclusive to auric dragons though

long bloom
#

that's his entire job

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

and it only worked while they still had a soul

#

except moon lord did something to prevent that

#

we dunno how

long bloom
#

he was the designated dragon reviver

split mortar
#

Moonlord shrimply just fucking snapped the souls in two bruteforce and yharon didnnot know how to handle that clueless

long bloom
#

yeah ml likely has some unspecified ability that prevents yharon from reviving dragons he killed

#

otherwise why was him showing up such a massive catastrophe

split mortar
#

Not even killed also Just injured

light moth
#

Maybe by contacting with any being he can put a curse on its soul

split mortar
#

The debuff is not that dangerous iirc

light moth
#

So it would not be repairable at any way

split mortar

sinful adder
#

Please, explain your reasoning for all this

#

Because it seems completely nonsense

errant swallow
#

gods are pretty spart prolly

sinful adder
#

A bear is physically stronger than a human but it isn't smarter

#

So actually strength and intelligence are entirely unrelated

errant swallow
#

dragons were imo a superior race to humans

sinful adder
#

Anyways, the lore is this:
The dragons are as smart as humans probably
Yharon had the power to be reborn and could share that power with other auric dragons before they died in a special way (had their souls consumed)

sinful adder
long bloom
sinful adder
#

Not in any general sense

#

These things aren't opinions, they have objective answers

#

The dragons were just really strong magic lizards that had roughly human intelligence

idk i didnt have a word for very smart

I wonder if scal attacks us out of pure evilness or not

My head cannon is that she doesn’t want us to reach yharim but idk

#

I’m pretty sure it’s not out of pure evilness

long bloom
#

but realizes you're not

steep vortex
#

Oh

#

Yeah cus tbh her lines shows that she’s not that evil

long bloom
#

she is not evil and also fucking despises yharim

steep vortex

She just got immense power very young and got manipulated

long bloom

They’re updating them in brainstorm

I can’t wait to see

More lore for my lore nerd self

I hope so

I talked to ozzatron about it a bit

Question

#

Saw some guy saying calamity lore outscales ultrakill lore

#

Does it

long bloom
#

what happens in ultrakill

steep vortex
hasty valley
#

💀

hasty valley
#

Iirc it pretty much starts with God “disappearing”

#

For some reason

long bloom
#

well calamity doesn't scale very high compared to other media

#

there's nothing that can destroy a planet

#

or even come close

steep vortex
#

Which is good honestly

hasty valley
steep vortex
#

Power scaling too high is boring

hasty valley
#

I do know that Xeroc could destroy the planet however it’d take a long time

#

Noxus might have an easier time doing so but is still weaker than Xeroc

long bloom
steep vortex
#

Is noxus in basecal lore?

hasty valley
#

Yes

steep vortex
#

Astrageldon isn’t basecal lore but it’s powerful as shit

#

It’s like a black hole or some shit

#

I like cal’s lore

#

Catalyst’s geldon is very good in lots of ways

hasty valley
#

What you mean by planet destruction

long bloom
#

elaborate

hasty valley
#

Complete planetary destruction where its reduced to fragments? No

#

A barren remnant of a planet with its outer surface completely wiped out? Yes

hasty valley
#

Depends on if xeroc, noxus and fovos were yet again downscaled

#

When I was gone for a bit

steep vortex
#

Is it obvious that I like catalyst?

hasty valley
#

Being totally honest I had no idea geldon had its own lore

steep vortex
steep vortex
#

There is

#

It’s like

#

Something

#

It’s like one of the slimes that got more and more powerful after dog got defeated I can’t recall well

#

And it became like universal level power

long bloom
#

also from a different galaxy

steep vortex
#

Somehow

#

Astral blight formed because of it

#

Yup astrageldon’s density is equal to many millions of galaxies

limpid saddle
steep vortex
#

The video I just sent

limpid saddle
#

is this old lore or some total calamity wiki crockpot

#

because astrageldon hasn't existed in any official capacity for like 6 years

long bloom
limpid saddle
steep vortex
#

It’s an addon

#

Prob the best one honestly

limpid saddle
thick slate
#

ur a bummoner

limpid saddle
#

anyhow there's exactly one lore item & it all says this is 'this thing was impossibly dense & nigh unkillable, good thing you killed it' & then Yharim slanders the shit out of the Slime God

#

where are you getting any involvement with the DoG from

#

Does Catalyst have it's own set of unimplemented dev statements that are going to be added in 3 years when SSO comes out

steep vortex

#

#

Does Yharim literally have wings or is he being metaphorical in Awakening

noble falcon
#

I mean if he got as far as we have currently I can only assume he made wings at some point

#

What kind do you think he uses
My bet’s on pixie wings

real silo
#

He would not wear pixie wings because those came from the hallow which is god related

limpid saddle
#

why would he need wings if he has yharon

real silo
#

He would wear wings of rebirth this is obvious.....

long scaffold
#

"Fittingly, he possessed a serpent's tongue. He manipulated me incessantly, driving me to awful acts."
I feel like this is a half-truth, correctly saying that DoG attempted to drive him to evil while skirting around the fact that Yharim is evil enough in his own right

#

Though I am very inexperienced with lore stuff

limpid saddle
#

The general consensus is at this point in the Crusades with or without the Devourer's influence Yharim recognized he began to plateau in strength, & felt apathetic about the matters of ruling his Empire, which was beginning to collapse without the strong managerial skills of Permafrost, as he desperately attempted to complete the Crusades with his own two hands

#

Though I think the Devourer goading him on certainly expedited & made the process signifigantly worse, leading him to become more unabashedly cruel & demanding of his greatest allies

#

Yharim's a bad person, but he's someone with a clearly defined moral code, & I think it's safe to say he regrets crossing his own lines

abstract hedge
#

For him, anything is justified if it means getting rid of gods and their worshippers.

#

He literally had a mech dedicated to burning civilians alive.

#

His only regrets are that his crusade "failed" in a sense and he lost his allies.

#

He probably also regrets a bit of his Comically Evil Crusade but not much since he evidently wants us to take his place as a Comically Evil Crusader.

long scaffold
#

DoG must be serving someone really powerful...
Whom I sadly can't take seriously with his old addon boss form

#

Wait, who's SCal's father?
Or was that a joke

abstract hedge
#

And Yharim ordered her to kill him but she made cryogen instead.

raven brook
#

Yeah Permafrost for adopted father

#

but as for actual biological father we dunno and if she's not a orphan he's definitely not alive anymore

#

but chances are given her brothesr basically raised her, absent at best, dead at worst

He calls it "my land" so it would be odd if he was a foreigner

have you ever seen how some people (mainly speaking about americans from what i've seen) who are like 2% irish or whatever act about that

raven brook
#

He lived on azafure, he just wasn't native azafurian in ethnicity

#

Same as the guide

jaunty wraith
#

The lore stated that azufure was the capital of the underworld right?

raven brook
#

Not quite

#

The underworld wasn't one big unified civilization

#

It's more of just, a enviroment

#

Azafure was a civilization on it

#

Having a capital to the underworld would be kind of like having a capital to the african savannah or a capital to the amazon rainforest

If dragon aerie is China, this means that Zeratros has some kind of relation to Qin Shi Huang the first emperor of unified China

idk i listened to like only the first 8 seconds of it

scars of calamity is more about the composer than calamitas ngl

and like that was the intent too

scars of calamity aren't really about calamity lore yeah

What is wulfrum according to lore? Can't understand why those wulfrum enemies even exist in first place

raven brook
#

They're robots made by anti-yharim rebels

long bloom
raven brook
#

Meant to kinda just annoy his troops since they arent really. you know. very strong

brazen sorrel
#

Ahh, so basically decoys

#

But what is the metall — wulfrum?

raven brook
#

We don't have much of a expalantion for that

long bloom
#

a special alloy crafted by john wulfrum himself

raven brook
#

My personal headcanon is that it's an alloy made of scraps of other metals that were used for other things, baically

#

And that's why it's so frail

brazen sorrel
#

It kinda looks like rusted copper

raven brook
#

It's made of a bunch of random shit, which does make it extremely cheap to make and cost-efficient

#

But also means it's like not really well balanced chemically and all that so it kinda sucks

#

Quantity > Quality basically

brazen sorrel
#

Thanks! Now i gotta understand what was azafure and why there is a lot of thing going there with word calamity in it...

long bloom
#

ever

#

in the world

raven brook
#

you know the brimstone crags

#

yeah that was azafure

brazen sorrel
#

Why was it in the bottom of the world?

long bloom
#

idk

#

maybe humans evolved in hell

#

but the surface kinda sucked at the time

#

the sun was a deadly laser

raven brook
#

The general plans for the lore was that the sun used to be really fucking hot in the past so humans mostly lived underground

#

And the brimstone crags provided plenty of food (Look at how lush it is) and the heat could be used to power things with thermal energy

tropic oak
#

iirc

#

The Sun was a Deadly Laser

long bloom
#

brazen sorrel
#

What is the brimstone? Some sulphurous stone? Was that made by John Brimstone?

tropic oak
#

i was... saying the same thing u were cuz it was funny

raven brook
#

Brimstone is the red fire that you see all over the crags

#

Yknow the debuff and all that

#

brimstone flames

long bloom
#

also brimstone magic

#

the stuff calamitas uses

raven brook
#

yep

brazen sorrel
#

But what can it be chemically?

long bloom
#

i don't think cosmilite is an element on the periodic table

brazen sorrel
#

The reason why sulphurous sea became sulphurous?

raven brook
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

long bloom
#

i wouldn't worry about it

long bloom
raven brook
#

The sulphurous sea did become sulphurous because of fumes coming from azafure

long bloom
#

it was the fumes from factories in azafure

raven brook
#

From the industries and factories and all that

long bloom
#

and draedon dumping plutonium in it later

raven brook
#

Flowing up into the abyss and upwards into the sulph sea

brazen sorrel
long bloom
#

unclear

tropic oak
#

you know what would solve this

raven brook
#

For the most part life managed to fully adapt to the sulphuric fumes after a while

brazen sorrel
#

Btw in some localisations brimstone is literally called «sulphur»

night barn
#

life became gross and goofy

raven brook
#

But Draedon dumping his nuclear waste in there kinda fucked things up

tropic oak
#

someone should make a really shitty mspaint chart of how the abyss / sulpherous sea / brimstone crags works

long bloom
#

TRUE

night barn
raven brook
#

It dosen't mean it necessarily has to mean that in here

night barn
#

yeah its meaning has shifted but in some contexts it still refers to same thing

#

in the bible brimstone and thereby sulfur is kinda used to refer to

#

shit getting exploded essentially

mighty zenith
#

eye sac

brazen sorrel
#

But why the bottom of abyss didn't get affected by sulphur fumes, while the surface get?

night barn
#

it did

raven brook
#

The fumes slowly flew up into the surface, and near the bottom there are animals that have managed to purify it

night barn
#

it just all rose the top

raven brook
#

Read the entries for the Devilfish, Cannonball Jellyfish and i believe Chaotic Puffer

limpid saddle
#

not helped by all the toxic garbage Draedon dumped in the sea

brazen sorrel
raven brook
#

All of them play a part in purifying the lower levels of the abyss

limpid saddle
#

But that didn't exactly sink down

raven brook
#

It's the sort of trivia that can easily go unnoticed since it's kinda just in bestiary entries for a few enemies

#

Which is pretty cool

but it didnt work

night barn
raven brook

Silva is the goddess of life

tropic oak
#

SIlva is the Goddess of Life

long bloom
raven brook
#

She's immortal due to being a elemental, which are functionally immortal beings

#

However Yharim beat the living shit out of her and dumped her body in the abyss

tropic oak
#

cheese we r killing xzier for outdoing us both at the start

#

sorry xzier i dont make the rules

raven brook
#

She'll come back eventually

night barn
#

she got chopped up and sunk into the abyss by yharim because hes a hater

long bloom
raven brook
#

But it'll take her a while to regenerate fully

#

Currently she's nothing more than a cocoon basically, you can't find it ingame but in the fuutre you will, at the bottom of the abyss

brazen sorrel
#

What would happen if Silva came back?

raven brook
#

Well she'd come back

long bloom
#

yharim would be pretty mad

raven brook
#

And that's kinda about it

tropic oak
#

yharim would prob come out of hiding

long bloom
#

that's about it

night barn
long bloom
#

yeah

tropic oak
#

if i had to guess

cloud ibex
#

she would probably be like "hello"

night barn
#

but yknow if silva wants to let it slide thats on her

tropic oak
#

he definitely has that like "Can you stay down there Go Fucking Die" kind of stance

night barn
#

not my jurisdiction

raven brook
#

Braelor and Statis would be like LET'S GO ‼️ and Yharim would be malding

brazen sorrel
#

Imagine Silva NPC

tropic oak

silva coming back as an actual storyline in cal would be very cool

REGN OF YHARIM IS NOT A PREEQ

tropic oak
#

LOL

#

reign of yharim is a sequel. we're having at it again

night barn
#

is it a sequel

raven brook
#

the horrors the horrors the horrors get out of my head get out of my head GET OTU OF MY HEAD

mighty zenith
#

reign of yharim 2 thats actually a prequel set in 1987

night barn
#

i am uninvolved in whatever happened

raven brook
#

anyways

night barn
#

to make this such a touchy subject

raven brook
tropic oak
#

though in all seriousness i could go for single / short-medium (hell, even longer) stories about pre-existing gods

night barn
#

just wanna know is it a sequel or a parallel story

cloud ibex
#

i like to imagine that the reason anahita left the abyss is because when silva was dumped in there she went "omg hiiii :D hello :D hiiii :D hello :D hiii :D hello :D hiiii :D" and anahita just got sick of her shit

raven brook
#

He dosen't get powers from the gods he eats or anything

raven brook
night barn
#

erm

raven brook
#

It's an adaptation of calamity's story in a different medium

you're welcome

been a while since i did proper prose writing

night barn

characters are the best part

#

of any story

#

for the most part

tropic oak
#

its also why im so very obsessed with the Xeroc Character™

night barn

theres some stories that do things a little differently but generally i find characters to be the most interesting

dusk laurel
#

i indulge way too much in good worldbuilding

#

i love interesting settings

tropic oak
#

they've got Something Cool Going On.

night barn
#

so far in cal a lot of the characters that interest me are kinda doomed to have no ingame exposition

#

because of

#

how it is right now

brazen sorrel
#

What is aerialite, why is it cursed and how defeating perforators uncurse it?

night barn
#

literally only really yharim has any real exposition because hes the one talking to you the whole time

raven brook
mighty zenith
#

ngl i had a vague idea of a a hypothetical god of comfort or so who became part of the hallow and is what gives the place a comfortable atmosphere

raven brook
#

Since evil2 is being moved to post moon lord

brazen sorrel
mighty zenith
raven brook
#

Aerialite is connected to a character known as Vetrasyl, who was an auric dragon much like Yharon, but instead of holding the domain of Rebirth, he had the domain of Storms instead

#

We don't know much more beyond that

brazen sorrel
#

How'd we get harpy ring and early wings then

raven brook
#

Lore is unfinished

#

It being tied to evil2 is going to change

dusk laurel
#

reading comprehension devil

tropic oak
#

lol

raven brook
#

You'll enchant it by defeating Dragonfolly instead which is being moved to a sky boss and taking the current place of Evil2 in progression

dusk laurel
#

the evil fucking sky hummingbirds are eating all of my aerialite someone please help

cloud ibex
#

this is what became of the world after yharim killed the god of reading comprehension, slayer of the dragon of literacy

brazen sorrel
#

Sorry for lots of question, but what is dragonfolly, why it spawns a lot of little dragonfollies and why was it birb?.

long bloom
#

draconic offshoot

basically just dragons without auric souls

that's it

also we're all super autistic here we love questions

ah, yeah

it will be eventually ultimatesmug

night barn

brazen sorrel
#

Who is yharim and why he is the main villain of calamity mod?

long bloom
#

oh uh

#

i suggest you read the doc for that one

#

first pin

night barn
#

for a quick summary

#

as far as i know

brazen sorrel
#

Ah ok

night barn
#

yharim is a guy who loves dragons and thinks theyre all sacred

#

so he hates the gods that are killing them and stealing their souls

long bloom
#

*not currently killing them, all the dragons besides yharon died centuries ago

night barn
#

the gods chucked him into lava along with the dragon he was supposed to kill because he refused to do it but the dragon saved him and then yharim went on to build a giant army and went on a hunt against the gods that ended up killjng like a quintillion people

#

is my understanding

long bloom
#

yeah

night barn
#

he did manage to kill most of the gods though

long bloom
#

he launched a hundred year crusade to kill all the gods

#

got most of em

#

then realized he couldn't get every single one and became so depressed he exiled himself

brazen sorrel
#

I started to read calamity mod lore doc and i got reminded of elden ring somehow...

night barn
#

there are lots of similarities

#

to elden ring and dark souls
