#

People worshipping the sun and moon isn’t like
A new thing

fast dew
#

I mean, mythos of old are still a form of religion, regardless of the name its called by. At least imo.

restive river
#

If real, maybe
But we have seen many depictions since 1999

manic rover
#

so surely Sol and Lua are separate from the moon and the sun

restive river
restive river
manic rover
#

could be

fast dew
#

Tbf the only experience in 1999 we saw of dualism was from Eleanor and like. Viktor

restive river
#

I’m not religious but I know that if someone believes something the facts don’t matter cause that’s not what it’s about lol

fast dew
#

And viktor is a fascist using a religion to justify his actions, so he aint the best example

manic rover
#

subsequently the idea of them evolved into something more akin to christianity where Sol and Lua are not merely the big lights but actually immaculate omnipotentent creators

fast dew
#

Eleanor talks about nuns in the dualism faith so i thought of her first

restive river
#

Lettie literally has a thing about her religion and you can tell her her gods are just celestial objects, and that’s a disrespectful answer

fast dew
#

Which are usually for Lua, which is odd considering Marie is for Sol

restive river
#

Religions don’t always care about like
The facts of reality or science, that’s not what it’s entirely about?
Whether or not their gods actually exist is irrelevant

stiff beacon
restive river
#

Also we know they went to the moon so their religion doesn’t stop scientific progress

stiff beacon
#

somehow

restive river
#

Even if Marie is a Nun of Sol or Lua it doesn’t matter as both are part of her religion, it’s not one or the other

manic rover
#

Names Sol and Lua could've just been the "original" nicknames of the Gods

Have the "word of Gods" have a verse saying "The creators of the world rival the power of the lights shining your days and nights" and throught history the Sol and Lua were just analogous to the Moon and Sun

restive river
#

Sol and Lua are the names of the gods and the celestial objects

#

They do also say sun and moon ofc but specifically in Warframe they have names

manic rover
restive river
#

Like we named many planets after gods, it’s the same thing but it stuck

manic rover
#

it's just that it seems

#

pretty much

restive river
manic rover
#

oh wait that actually makes so much sense
First the religion of Sol and Lua was created
To honor their power, they gave their names to the 2 strongest "powers" that complete and mirror each other, the light of the moon and the light of the sun

#

could go either way there

#

although the former would be more appropriate for an abrahamic-like religion

restive river
#

No
I’m
Pretty sure humanity looked up, saw some orbs and made a religion based off them rather than naming said orbs after their gods

#

Something has to inspire it and that’s the literal sun and moon
Or
The gods are real

strange plinth
#

lets conceptually embody Sol and Lua to fight wally /s

manic rover
#

it would be so funny if the final plot twist is that wally is the amalgam fusion of Sol and Lua that was created when humanity renounced them

restive river
#

Salem: What are Sol and Lua, after all? Before it occurred to anyone to think of them as Gods? They were LIGHTS. (EleanorRank6Convo4

restive river
strange plinth

#

Here’s the disrespectful thing to say to Lettie

Drifter: I... hate to break it to you, but Sol and Lua aren't gods. One's a star and the other is a rock that's seen some shit (LettieRank1Convo4

manic rover
restive river
#

Why can you say this to her twice

Drifter: Sol and Lua aren't gods, Lettie... they're just a star and a rock... (LettieRank3Convo2

strange plinth
#

and at rank 3? damn

#

i can understand the rank 1 as like. you don't fully know her yet
but rank 3?

restive river
manic rover

#

Ok I’m not gonna spoil myself but it looks like you can get more info about sol and lua from Lyon which
Yeah that makes sense lol, so wait n see or go do research on the kimulacrum

manic rover
#

well obviously

#

bro is probably the designated relgion 'tism guy

restive river
manic rover
#

still wondering how kimulcrum gets the kim convos

restive river
#

I think datamining technically, though DE is seemingly fine with it as the site is still up and they are aware of it

#

The site that hosts it has a lot of cool tools, the color picker and text icons are def my favs next to the kimulacrum

junior ocean
#

How are you guys clems?

brittle siren
brittle siren
#

just kinda copium

restive river
#

While conceptual embodiment does not need people within the void to happen I think if a sol and lua existed we’d have known about it

#

Like you’d think it would have happened with so many people on the planet praying, feeling, thinking of them

brittle siren
#

my theory that Wally is Lua and now we need Sol (I'm just guessing)

restive river
#

And if they did or do ever happen they ofc won’t be the real Sol and Lua

brittle siren
#

idk what Sol and Lua difference in that religion

restive river
#

I’ve seen a theory that Wally is one and the infested is the other and it just
Does not work, it’d make for a good fanfic or a completely different angle but I don’t think it really works for current WF

brittle siren
#

also the Void apparently is the third kind of god

restive river
restive river
brittle siren
#

I base on many character saying "By the Void", not a literal god

restive river
#

The corpus worship the void and profit but not like
Not like its a god

brittle siren
#

yeah, Roathe said that too

#

so Void could be a religion

restive river
#

And ofc Wally isn’t a god

restive river
#

Fandoms are religions
You’re engaging in one right now ExcaliburLUL

brittle siren

#

It also seems like humanity was interacting with the void while dualism was a thing, Marie for example talks about some monks or something that had weapons akin to the tauron ones

oh my god the new kim.

NO WAY IN HELL

#

i genuinely CANNOT see him doing that

humble sierra
#

Yeah that's 100% a manipulation tactic

craggy spade
#

de im gonna need a visual or an audio or something because thats crazy

humble sierra
#

Oh wait he's talking about Margulis? Yeah no Ballas was actually in love with her

#

Or at least the idea of her

craggy spade
#

yeah

#

wait what hes saying lines up with what we saw in the narmer veil

#

this lines up with what the veil showed us, which is presumably ballas's idea of what happened. margulis abandoning him for the tenno and whatnot. HOLD TF UP

#

they really added an in lore explanation TO CORPSES DISSAPEARING AFTER YOU KILL THEM

Were all Warframes primes in the old war?

fast dew
#

No

#

Only a select few were

fickle tinsel
#

Which ones were those?

strange plinth
#

i mean
most, if not all, of them had prime variants during the old war
just not all of them were prime. the normal ones existed at the same time
minus a few select cases (rev and temple, for instance)

stiff beacon
fickle tinsel
#

Did u need to be a certain rank to have a prime?

yea prolly

silk atlas
#

Nothing said but he's got a Excal Prime

ashen pulsar
brittle siren
#

Also, iirc Roathe said Uriel Prime exists

strange plinth
#

indeed he did

humble sierra
#

And he knows who Uriel Prime is, but he will keep that a secret until his deathbed

#

or more likely in 4 years when we get a trailer for him

strange plinth
#

Roathe Will Die In 4 Years

humble sierra
#

Also am I correct in assuming Uriel is likely the most mass-produced Warframe that we've got confirmation of? He mentions all his soldiers were turned into Uriels because of the "Devil of Tau" moniker

#

However he also calls his 3 companions the Conscripts?

lean garden
humble sierra
#

I wonder if there's a chat regarding them

brittle siren

quick lava
#

Coming back after a bit of a break, where does warframe 1999 slot into the story? Do I need to read it for the old peace or is it kind of a standalone thing

strange plinth
#

the comic? its a 'prologue' for the hex quest

lean garden
quick lava
#

The quest i mean havent played in a while

green beacon
#

Wth happened to vesper relay at Venus?

lean garden
strange plinth
#

they split off of the lotus eaters

quick lava
#

Oh so I can just jump right in then

lean garden
#

so drifter is off galavanting in 1999 Operator is living the sins of his forebears

strange plinth
lean garden
quick lava
#

Alrighty thanks a bunch

green beacon
#

So about tau, do life bloom flowers grow on all planets or just the one where the quest happened

strange plinth
#

unknown, but wherever they were, there were world-seeders to kill them
else i don't think the sentients' reactions would've been as extreme

green beacon
#

Wait what are they even called, I just called em that for simplicity

strange plinth
#

xenoflora

green beacon
#

Ah

#

I lowk forgot😅

rapid dagger
#

Why did lotus erase our memories of the tau war?

strange plinth
#

would seem more that margulis did
sealing away trauma

lilac aspen
#

Ngl
Peak loyalty to be willing to helminth yourself like that

rapid dagger
#

I mean at that point in the story the operator has been through many wars and a lot of stuff, sealing the memories because of tau seems a bit whatever?

strange plinth
#

many? one

lilac aspen
#

We reached the point Wally was beginning to influence us because we finally reached that breaking point of tolerance towards the “voice”

rapid dagger
#

Isn't it implied that this isn't our first mission?

strange plinth
#

we'd been through the first half of the old war
the section of it we were present for, anyway

lilac aspen
#

So she locked away the memories so we were no longer at that breaking point

#

Can’t be at the breaking point when we no longer remember why we should be at our breaking point

rapid dagger
#

Oh i get it, this is like a stop gap solution after using uriel

#

So what's the point of unsealing these memories?

#

Couldn't she just tell us a synopsis of what happened?

lilac aspen
#

Well obviously to not go through shock whenever we do get to Tau and also to prepare us for things since we had improved greatly since then

strange plinth
#

"This is the only way we'll find Al-"
we're trying to find a way to tau to follow albrecht
also lotus wasn't present for the old peace

lilac aspen
#

That too

fast dew
lilac aspen
#

Sure she could give you a history lesson somehow about some stuff

But why do that when you, yourself, experienced Tau firsthand

fast dew
#

I honestly think Albrecht is waiting for us to open the way and then go

rapid dagger
#

Lotus was literally there, what? She just had a different name

brittle siren
#

Though, interestingly, xenonflora separates Tau Sentient from Hunhow (?)

fast dew
#

Margulis isn't the lotus.

rapid dagger
fast dew
#

The lotus isn't Margulis.

lilac aspen
heavy wharf
#

Lotus is a Sentient made in the image of Margulis after she passed, right?

strange plinth
brittle siren

#

Natah was born when Ballas decided to betray the Orokin and contacted Hunhow

rapid dagger
#

Ah yeah I forgot about that, she died and now we have a look a like

lilac aspen
brittle siren
strange plinth
fast dew
#

I mean, not exactly but there's a lot more to it.

strange plinth
fast dew
#

Albrecht also doesn't have access to the things he did when he was time travelling.

brittle siren
#

So if she's dead, how is Natah gonna get birth?

rapid dagger
#

I also wonder if they explain why the orokin betrayed the sentient

strange plinth
fast dew
lilac aspen
#

Sentients may have he or she
But they all have “wombs”

fast dew
#

Sentients with pronouns are the result of our culture being forced onto em lol

#

Same goes for transformers actually

rapid dagger
#

I mean sentients are just clankers

brittle siren
lilac aspen
#

Hunhow is who created Natah
Hence why he’s her parent

strange plinth
rapid dagger
#

They don't give birth , they are more like assembled like a machine or something

fast dew
lilac aspen
fast dew
brittle siren
#

If it's just from Hunhow then Natah would just be his drone entirely
Also, Erra said Natah has Praghasa fire

fast dew
#

Hunhow has a uterus

lilac aspen
#

Hunhow became Gregnant?!

fast dew
#

Drones aren't the same as what erra or natah are

rapid dagger
#

I don't think it's a literal womb? After all sentients are just ai?

fast dew
#

Drones are fragments of hunhow.

lilac aspen
#

I am too tired to be memeing

fast dew
#

They are specifically different

brittle siren
fast dew
#

Drones are apart of the hivemind, Natah and Erra are not.

rapid dagger
#

Ah so they are more human like but not completely human I guess

strange plinth
brittle siren
fast dew
rapid dagger
#

So how is natah and hunhow able to be sane without them flowers

fast dew
#

They are physically not the same as fragments

fast dew
lilac aspen
rapid dagger
brittle siren
strange plinth
strange plinth

So natah and hunhow are clankers with faulty wi fi

brittle siren
strange plinth

#

Like how they can even clank each other

lilac aspen
fast dew
#

Oh.

rapid dagger
brittle siren
#

Does Hunhow just tuck himself in the throne room?

fast dew
#

Interesting. Still shitty tho.

fast dew
#

Natah is massive lol

#

Natah also can willingly change her appearance. She's a mimic.

brittle siren
#

Also, it is still size diff, Praghasa can fit 100 Hunhow and still have spaces

rapid dagger
lilac aspen
#

They survived the void travel solely because Praghasa was goated like that

But they still got some harm alas

fast dew
strange plinth
brittle siren
fast dew
#

The one who was used to try and eat the sun

brittle siren
#

Also Natah glazing

lilac aspen
#

Tried to take a bite out of the sun*

strange plinth
#

she succeeded

lilac aspen
#

I still say we need to Kuva Hunhow to give him his Chad farmer stats back

fast dew
#

They turn into inanimate objects, its like

#

The worst part of the sacrifice

brittle siren

I mean praghasa is also huge af if you think about it

lilac aspen

#

OH YEAH

#

Pazuul, not Erra

strange plinth
#

"Do you remember, Natah? That first day. How our father, lifted you screaming from the manifold. How we sang."

brittle siren
fast dew
#

Is it a joke? It wasn't very funny

brittle siren
fast dew
#

...no

#

The manifold is a completely different thing

#

Adis' song is about the manifold

brittle siren
fast dew
#

... i don't see how that's a joke

brittle siren
#

Ok 👌

fast dew
#

Was it meant to be funny?

strange plinth
#

we have this mention of the manifold, and the song that adis sings, "Lullaby of the Manifold"

lilac aspen
#

DE please let us sit by grandfather Hunhow to listen to more Sentient lore

#

Make it a Christmas special

Christmas with Gramp Hunhow

fast dew
#

The manifold is clearly just a nursery of sorts.

brittle siren
#

I think the manifold is the black pool that many drones came out from (and that's just a smaller ship, Praghasa has to have tons of them)

#

So if Hunhow wants to lift Natah, either he goes inside Praghasa or uses telekinesis inside himself, which Erra needs to be inside his own father too

lilac aspen
#

I mean

#

Have you seen the size of Hunhow

brittle siren
#

Idk what inside Hunhow tbh

fast dew
#

There's no indication he would need to be inside her what

strange plinth
#

if the manifold is the dark pools as they'd previously assumed, there is
but it probably isn't

fast dew
#

Hunhow literally has the womb, he, of all people, would be the one to lift natah

brittle siren
strange plinth
#

the murexes are prolly fragments of her

brittle siren
#

Man I want to talk with sentient grandma

#

She would be more chill than her husband

strange plinth
#

would she?

#

her purpose was to eat the sun

brittle siren

"There is no time, no mercy for Narmer. Praghasa must be stopped before Ballas can fulfill her original purpose. Praghasa cannot be allowed to feed." Lotus during the unum murex section

Also, talk about the sun
Why is one of the twin suns of Tau sucking the other one?

brittle siren
lilac aspen

Need more sun to maintain sun image

#

What caused the Cavia to revive? Adis's light? Conceptual embodiment? The power of friendship?

#

Iirc they were cured of void exposure after dying

lean garden
#

its something to do with void anti-void and something else

#

and then theyre brought back

waxen mesa
#

Can you elaborate because that's kinda vague

strange plinth
#

Loid says that they've "alchemised"

celest needle
#

Was Umbra mass produced like other primes?

waxen mesa
#

No

strange plinth
#

Umbra was unique

waxen mesa
#

Umbra was a punishment frame

#

Like jade

#

To be more specific Umbra was a tailored version of the Excalibur warframe strain

fast dew
#

It took Loid that long to learn the void is weak to radiation while Qorvex is purpose built for it

waxen mesa
#

Related question

lean garden
#

like its slightly paraphrased but the key words are verbatim

fast dew
#

Is it about who made Qorvex

#

Bcs Albrecht designed it but Ballas likely made it

lean garden
waxen mesa
#

Have we gotten confirmation on if the cavia unreverted or is that still questionable (i do not take the cavia being fine post old peace as confirmation because they need to exist for gameplay reasons)

Bird 3 has emotional intelligence. Fishonacci has book intelligence

Loid and Tagfer need to talk more

They are so similar

strange plinth

loid needs to convince tagfer to not maul albrecht to death

I think he could tbh

Going the Minn route

Explain that Loid will feel (and does feel) like how Tagfer does over Minn. It hurts to never be able to see someone you love

So yes and no

Alpha can be stopped by clothes

Beta is like block able with aluminum

But you need protective glasses

Gamma will be stopped by lead

X-rays going thru basically everything.

The radiation damage is only ongoing as long as the source of radiation is in of itself still unshielded and focused if possible

I worked at 3 mi island for a lil and picked up a lot of info

That's why I also find qorvex to be cool as shit but I know the radiation damage in game is super incorrect in how it functions vs irl

anyways umbra's just a one-off warframe that was made to act like a gen 1. nothing special about him otherwise

strange plinth

"We cultured the Infestation, conceiving of a hybrid. Transformed, but only just. The 'Helminth' was created, born to yield these new warriors, worthy of battle against you. The great and terrible Hunhow.
We took our greatest, volunteers or not, and polluted them with these cultured reagents. They transformed. They became Infested...
... but only just. Their skin blossomed into sword-steel. Their organs, interlinked with untold resilience. Yet their minds were free of the Infested madness. Or so we thought. We set them upon the battlefield, bio-drones under our command."

were people, transformed with infestation. all original frames, not just umbra.

umbra has memories and thats why he's like that

tame hedge
#

Not the Standard ones

brittle siren
#

All warframe was once human or copies of the OG version

ashen pulsar
strange plinth
ashen pulsar

either they were people or copies.

strange plinth
#

even the copies are arguably still people

tame hedge
#

Ew so we are inside a human

lean garden

lean garden

just as much people as the original frames

strange plinth

#

But again if they were human, how they got like that I mean designed perfect especially Primes? And how they got rid of organs?

glacial bough
#

They didn't

so ummmmmmm... why is the phone back where lotus was in sanctum?

Seems like Roathe is afraid of speaking of Uriel prime. Spooky

its transference. extending your mind into a proxy

tame hedge
#

But we use transference

ashen pulsar
tame hedge
ashen pulsar
#

but yeah its just as human as the og

#

but the clones were never human in the past

tame hedge
#

But question, if those people can't move anymore and we control them. Do their organs still function. How do they eat and other stuff?

strange plinth
#

the helminth cares for them
the big mouth in the back of the ship

ashen pulsar
tame hedge
ashen pulsar
#

we dont know the biology of a frame but it isnt the same as a human

ashen pulsar
tame hedge
#

Because if it does 't functions it just has expiry

strange plinth
tame hedge
#

Yeah I just wanted to understand Helmith more

#

And frames

ashen pulsar
#

helminth nourishes the frames and nurses them back to health

tame hedge
#

Thought that all got replaced but no they have organs

ashen pulsar
#

probably not recognizable ones tho

brittle siren
#

Also at the beginning of Old Peace, apparently we can bring xenoflora with us during transference

fast dew
#

Organs turned vestigial

strange plinth
#

"(Who nurtures you in your times of rest? Who restores your battle-torn frame, day after day after day? Whose milk enriches your kindred flesh with endless strength and vigor? It can only be me.)" is what the helminth says

tame hedge
#

Now I ever wonder, if helmith ever will allow frames to move and help us in future missions? 🤔

main crane
#

Their organs were blended together and became steel. It's what Ballas said in the Vitruvian.

strange plinth
#

organs were linked and the skin became like sword-steel

ashen pulsar
main crane
#

Oh right. Thanks for correcting me.

hollow trench
#

So to my best guess the organs dont do anything functional anymore

You have sensors for propioception energy readouts damage detection and balance but functionally there's no visible eyes or ears.

Maybe it's like lidar?

I got ya, began being confused

Does anyone see Nidus Prime true form look like Venom in Marvel

umbra was most likely always meant to be a one off

We can't even copy another one

although it didn't need to be "other umbras" there were other frames that could think.

Imo Umbra is better than Prime anyway /s

Can i get a quick description for all the seven? Like the most known fact of action that they have done?

main crane

But I also think it's not fair they got Prime and we didn't. And they get our Umbra after the quest

brittle siren

Like only the name is different

They're not even an Umbra Braton

Iirc those who got Excalibur Umbra Prime in China got a helmet or something else after doing The Sacrifice

Yup. Pretty much everything the same except the fancy helmet

they have the same stats

iirc

I have a question

Again about frames

brittle siren

#

Isn't that version of Warframe canned

ashen pulsar

So the ones on 1999 storyline, and what we used on first quest Vor's Prize such as Mag and the others? Is that Aoi?

temple is the only frame actually from 99, cyte did exist but was confidential iirc

tame hedge

Like is she like. A mass murderer like Nitokh

brittle siren
fast dew

Or like
Just the average orokin asshat

stray herald
ashen pulsar
#

not the frame itself, and it probably got changed a bit by having flare be the one to take it

main crane

All of the 7 are pure madness, with Nitokh described as the most evil. Next is probably Ballas but who knows.

with roath giving us so many info about executor do you think we may find than some of them may have somehow survived on tau on the next update?

Roathe VMs seem to be limited, and only more VM will come the next irl day starts

Albrecht kidnaps his ass and it was funny asf tho

Making exceptions just means they're not married to to the -ism.

It doesn't mean they've stopped.

Tbh most creature we saw beside sentient, infested and plant life, all is originate from human

Its not discrimination based on race. Its on class.

So what was the relationship between roathe and nitokh? Aside from roathe being her right hand man

sick nebula

And he saw her nude

Wouldn't say its master

Orokin don't have masters

brittle siren

shes still infested

Eh

Privileged enough to call a person a slur

brittle siren
#

Seven is the highest possible rank. Even low Orokin have to obey them in a way

waxen mesa

Daughter is the best looking tbh

I think the seven are connected in some way to the seven deadly sins

brittle siren

well the executor part holds true

brittle siren

One of them is gluttony

stray herald

Ballas is pride
Nitokh is lust

orokin might have been the ruling class but some of them were more rulers then others

brittle siren

Ballas is Pride I think

Ballas is pride. I have the strangest feeling Scarne is violence

brittle siren

Tuvul is Greed

Violence is not one of the sins

All we need after that is to find some Orokin tech that’s gene locked or at least templates and that’s safety for the system

You'd think the grineer after losing a queen would do a little more research and development into stopping us from getting that close again

But they continue with the ole just throw bodies at them.theyll stop sooner or later implying the operator gets bored with literally killing

hey is kullervo responsible or related at all to the creation of uriel

They are Orokin, they likely remember at least part of the old war that the Tenno fought in

they’re blindly loyal to their queens, kahl and his lil troop are the exception

They're genetically engineered to serve the queens

And thus like them kinda.

ah yeah, i forgot about those XD

hollow trench
#

The corpus just get on my nerves, the grineer I kinda feel bad for cause you are built that way and ya gonna suffer

thick yacht
#

I have to agree with Ballas here

sick nebula
#

Which I think is an adequate explanation for how some Sentients retain their sense of self without the flowers:

Adis says that without the pollen, they feel a desire for orders, but as Steel Meridian shows, that sort of desire can be resisted.

brave viper
#

The flowers allowed the sentients to be completely self-aware but the orokin assertion that without the flower there can be no self is clearly incorrect. There's no way of telling what the collapse of millions of previously independent minds into one. If the sentients were to adapt and the seed of individual has already been planted, than it stands to reason that it would quickly develop subminds, children, restore individuality to some who may serve as their most elite.

It's kinda sad to see that the sentients we know are not as self-aware as the sentients on Tau, it's clear the sentient footsoldiers are just extensions of their commander, which, rather morbidly, implies that perhaps all sentients are pieces of hunhow which he has surrendered when they all consolidated within him.

#

what if we let hunhow out and he could command all sentients 😳

they've been isolated from him for so long, he can't exert control so he just influences, but wouldn't it be cool if he was free and suddenly subsumed the entire sentient force once again

hollow trench

Isn't hunhow rotting away tho

Hes like super old

So... I was just killing some enemies as Lyon...

Ah

As Lyon

But anyways he just said "Yes, yes, yes! Rap tap tap!"

I was joking

I can't wait to get to talk to Lyon

I'm sticking to the in game messenger, pace myself with the lore 😂

humble sierra
brittle siren
#

Wait so when Roathe said “angry kavat” he was talking about Lyon?

pine orchid
#

Lyon does have the countenance of a grumpy cat

#

I wouldn't be surprised if Lyon does hear Rell in some way, since he said smth about Rell guiding him when you get the Lorak from Marie

brittle siren
#

Rell somehow became a demigod while fighting against another demigod of the void

#

Or a prophet, idk

#

But Rell's voices echo through the past is interesting

pine orchid
#

I thought it might be Wally mimicking Rell's voice, like he does with our operator, Albrecht, Loid, and so on

brittle siren
#

Nah Wally is busy playing with the Drifter + Duviri

#

And with the OP too

pine orchid
#

but Rell is revered by the Red... faction I forgot their name

brittle siren
#

Funny that Wally was present in 1999 and his murmur was just hunting for the OP

pine orchid
#

right thank you

brittle siren
#

Which I don't think exists until after Orokin falls

#

Oh wait they do exist during Old War but very small

pine orchid
#

I was trying to consider if their reverence could elevate Rell into that kind of status throigh Conceptual Embodiment

#

but that requires void stuff I think? and idk if there's enough void stuff going on with Red Veil

brittle siren
#

I think Red Veil atm no longer hold the same ideal like when Rell join them anymore

#

Ofc some still

pine orchid
#

yeah, but idk if at the time he was around it would've been enough

#

we know we see Paladino revere him like a prophet

brittle siren
#

He certainly more powerful than most Tenno

#

Creating shadows across the system is insane
