Ah

#

Was gonna wonder if it’s really mitosis if no new fingers are actually generated (honestly reminds me of say shipping a product then receiving the same product later on)

tropic venture
#

eternalism and Untime means it being moved from point A to point B doesn't have to mean it's not still at point A

tropic venture
#

so the same one finger can appear to be multiple copies

#

hence why there are multiple reliquary drives

viscid quarry
#

Pretty interesting idea tbh

tropic venture
#

while there only being one finger that was cut off from Wally

nova harness
cyan crest
#

and Albrecht said Digits and not Digit

nova harness
#

As much as he only shows one missing finger he can show up looking however he wants

rain otter
#

it wouldn't be out of the question.

#

it is a void finger that grew giant and is now being used to hyper space jump i feel anything is possible.

#

So whos the most likely next prime? Protea?

tropic venture
#

yeah probably, then Xaku after that

#

since the next actually female frame who could be paired with Protea is Yareli, who's two male frames away anyways

#

so order is most likely Protea -> Xaku -> Sevagoth -> Lavos -> Yareli

#

so upcoming Prime weapons will be goated

#

Quassus Prime, Epitaph Prime, Cedo Prime

#

plus whatever miscellaneous weapon gets Primed alongside them

#

still hoping for Daikyu Prime and Okina Prime

viscid quarry
tropic venture
#

only Tenno weapons get primes

#

only exceptions would be like Phantasma Prime and Venato Prime who are both Sentient weapons, but they are Warframes signature weapons

#

I still REALLY want an infested lich system on deimos

tropic venture

Infested liches are confirmed to be coming

But different than the others. No ship battles. Gotta go deep into ancient infested tunnels below

we don't know when or how they'll work exactly tho

if they do add it, I guess Eris Proxima could be a possibility

Stug Wraith is still possible

or Kuva Stug

Still

tropic venture
#

tbh a stug shooting pure Kuva would be insanely powerful lore-wise

viscid quarry
#

Would love to finally realize the true power of the stug

prime lantern
#

It's not like kuva is particularly hot or reactive

#

It makes the queens lichs immortal and gives them powers

#

And let's me gamble my heart away

nova harness
#

Why was Wally emotional if we didn’t do the right thing in his eyes with the Kuva? It’s not like we needed it

limpid scarab
#

Seeing Albrecht’s fit and the old pc’s in this game is the craziest and most unexpected thing to me

calm glacier

#

And his fit is like faux 1999 which is hilarious.

viscid quarry
#

Kuva stug change: every shot is now a droplet of kuva that can instantly make the enemy drop enormous sums of credits or somehow transmute them into a glorified angry cloud of kuva that can be shot by operator for a minor explosion (can you tell that I may or may not have gone insane)

I actually like the lich system. However if they make more they should do something different this time. And with a bit more randomized challenge. It is a bit repetitive at times doing the same thing over and over and if you are farming for max % weapons then the liches abilities themselves are repetitive cause you just use the same frame over and over. So making some random challenges would be nice or some environmental puzzles

#

wasn't rell already gone? is chains of harrow before war within?

tropic venture
#

War Within is before Chains of Harrow

#

Rell had to forgo his human body and humanity, becoming one with Harrow

#

he basically permanently and fully Transferred to Harrow

sacred flint
#

nah he ||died||

tropic venture
#

he "died"

sacred flint
#

you can read that at the computer recap in sanctum

tropic venture
#

he fully died and passed on at the end of the quest

sacred flint
#

but i thought chains of harrow was before the war within

tropic venture
#

during the quest and before it he was still "alive" per se

tropic venture
sacred flint
#

so i wouldn't make sense for wally to still be contained by rell so i was just confusion but i understand now

tropic venture
#

Second Dream -> War Withing -> Chains of Harrow -> Apostasy Prologue -> The Sacrifice

sacred flint
#

yea sry was just confusion

obtuse gyro
#

you can technically make a link between wally being active enough to take down rell with us meddling with the kuva

tropic venture
#

Wally got much more freedom to act after Harrow and Rell's seal on him were removed. He contacts the Operator in the Origin System more, and he influences Duviri more

sacred flint
#

who here chose to drink it?

#

i absoltuly gobbled it up

obtuse gyro
#

I like to stay neutral

tropic venture
#

I did, back then I chose both black and white choices, now I'm a dedicated middle chooser DarvoSmug

obtuse gyro
#

I cant remember what option it was, I just picked the middle one always

tropic venture
#

white was destroy, black was to consume

sacred flint
#

i am also neutral but come on i had to chose to drink it i wanted to know what would happen

#

yea neutral was to just keep the kuva

tropic venture
#

yeah since I chose white and black options back then, I ended up basically fully neutral even before I dedicated to it

obtuse gyro
#

wally contacts you all the same

tropic venture
#

yeah, what exactly he says differs slightly based on your choice

#

but it all comes down to reminding us he's still there

sacred flint
tropic venture
#

our memories being recovered, and the proximity to Kuva, let him properly get in touch with us

sacred flint
#

but the icon is neutral

tropic venture
sacred flint
#

ah like that

viscid quarry
#

Same here

tropic venture
#

Sacrifice onwards I am a dedicated neutral path

#

neutral path has the best choice 90% of the time anyways

sacred flint
#

i really wanted to name my rabbit Lua but i had to chose terra );

tropic venture
sacred flint
#

wut really?

tropic venture
#

yep

sacred flint
#

i think that is just a bug i swear i see Terra above mine

tropic venture
#

I wish that nametag did change, and maybe even Teshin actually said its chosen name instead of just "our trusted ally" when grabbing the Orvius

viscid quarry
tropic venture
#

not always, but my mix of black/white choices early on made my overall standing basically fully neutral anyways

viscid quarry
#

also damnit Terra is the best name for the rabbit of caerbannog

tropic venture
#

I mean, so far the actual choices don't really

#

only one that somewhat does so far is the final choice in TNW, and even then it only changes their displayed name (so far)

viscid quarry
tropic venture
#

True, choosing Margulis just feels like legit wrong

#

Lotus is the most moral choice imo. It's who she chose to be, it doesn't force her to be tied to her past or what others wanted of her

nova harness

I chose Lotus but put on Margulis skin

Her response about seeing him after is odd tho. Either she knows more about him than she's letting on (possibly saw him during the Void trip from Tau?) or he appeared as something else to her

nova harness
#

Lotus Man in the Wall is not real Natah The Man in the Wall is real I saw him

viscid quarry
#

The only way is she either spills the beans on it or we find a way to view what she saw during that whole escapade

viscid quarry
tropic venture
#

and by cartaking for the Tenno

viscid quarry
#

Wait Ik this will sound wierd but what if we tried to do transferance to lotus but not the take over her body style but the same way we did umbra

tropic venture
#

yeah Albrecht probably has the most actual theoretical knowledge on it, while we have more practical experience and direct connection to it

viscid quarry
#

Would we be able to see her memory of it there?

tropic venture
viscid quarry
#

She sent lua to the void perfectly fine

tropic venture
#

and Wally could probably meddle with those memories appear to us

viscid quarry
#

Fair but it’s a chance

nova harness
tropic venture
tropic venture
#

Lua was the Orokin capital, it's pretty safe to assume it has the top-notch Void tech and Void insulation

nova harness
#

She was in a box protected from the void damage

tropic venture
#

cause we know she was stuck in her chamber, and her chamber is on Lua

tropic venture
#

insulating it from Void

viscid quarry
#

That would make sense

#

Still you would think the void would still get through after generations of being stuck in the void but the chamber could have more defenses against the void

tropic venture
nova harness
#

Do you think she got hurt when we dropped it?

tropic venture
#

She doesn't appear very physically adept when we see her in Second Dream

#

and we know that she's really physically strong, even among other Sentients

#

cause even as an only semi-restored Eidolon, she easily broke through the entire Narmer fleet and the Murex Sentient foot-soldiers

#

might've been made that strong by Hunhow in case she had her cover blown while infiltrating them

viscid quarry
tropic venture
#

yeah

viscid quarry
#

That or the fragments we face are just that weak

#

Which would be the scarier one as that would suggest that there still is a good chance we get bodied hard by one but let’s assume lotus is just insanely strong

tropic venture
#

I mean I assume the Sentients on Tau are much stronger than the straggling survivors left in the Origin system

No, because Albrecht turned Arthur into a warframe following Ballas' designs. Excalibur was the first (Orokin) warframe, so he had to exist first for Albrecht to copy.

# nova harness Mind explaining this in simple terms?

hahaha honestly the Void is what I understand the least. I think it basically means the Man in the Wall is forced to follow logical timelines and can't jump around to wherever and whenever he wants to. StallordD's video goes a lot into this, though it's just his personal interpretation of it. https://youtu.be/dpwLhr1Xdrs

A re-telling of the events of Albrecht's first encounter with the Void, his efforts in defeating the Indifference, his journey to 1999, and his gambit with the Kalymos sequence. Further, a brief summary of The Whispers in the Walls quest, and the events shortly after with the Cavia syndicate, as well as some short speculation about 1999 itself. ...

(long video btw)

I mean him not being allowed to jump round kinda makes sense being assumed to be trapped in the wall aka the void

Alright, so I have a question about the Conk Creet Macrowave, Qorvex. Given that Qorvex is a warframe, Ballas had at least a hand in his creation, but Qorvex’ flavor text says that he was designed by Albrecht. Is it possible that Albrecht and Ballas collaborated to make Qorvex?

amber terrace
prime lantern
#

Making both the vessels and qorvex

amber terrace
#

Ah

prime lantern
#

So probably not if I had to guess

#

Albretchs a recluse

amber terrace
#

True

#

I’m trying to find where Albrecht draws the line in terms of ethics. From what we’ve seen and heard from him, he seems to be not as immoral by today’s standards as some of the Orokin we’ve met(Ballas, Nihil) or heard about(Tuvul)

fading flame
#

Albrecht was copying what Ballas was doing but trying to do his own thing with the deimos gray strain

#

The big golems are also basically warframes

amber terrace
#

I was under the assumption that the Deimos Gray Strain was used to make the vessels, while Qorvex was made using the Helminth strain

fading flame
#

It's not specifically that qorvex was made with the Grey strain but he's so different from other frames because he's made entirely by albrecht

nova harness
#

He was probably made before the grey strain was even on Deimos fully

#

Albrecht probably made it same time as the War

prime lantern
#

With the exception of harm befalling lord

fading flame
viscid quarry
#

It’s less then the usual warframe which has a whole body where as qorvex (assuming the black ‘‘skeleton’ is technorganic in nature) has less used overall

#

and that’s probably due to the crucible core and whatever the hell albrecht out in him to allow the concrete to float and act as armor and the rest of the coverings for qorvex

What does that have to do with the labs?
Xaku uses the helminth strain, so does the vessels, the strain itself doesn’t like the void but it interacts with it since all Warframes are void powered

near rune
# amber terrace So far I have Alad torches Grineer Corpus relations, setting the system on fire...

This is almost all accurate (very impressive honestly). A couple small corrections:
-Alad got kicked off the Board right when he started messing with Infested. Frohd Bek (Chairman of the Board) tried to kill him, Alad fought back with Infested, then the Tenno seemingly killed him (The Hunt for Alad V event). After his first "death" his Board seat was vacated. Then there's all that stuff with the Infested and Mutalist strains, ending with Alad curing himself with the Tenno's help as you've described.
-Alad cashed in his Second Dream favour to get the Tenno to fight off the Acolytes, which happened like right after TSD came out. Alad only had his favour for like a month or two, if my memory serves.
-At some point post-TSD, Alad rejoins the Corpus (this is never really explained) and rebuilds his Gas City on Jupiter.
-Alad V doesn't cash in his favour to get rid of the Ropalolyst (he already used it up); the Tenno were just there to kill the thing and Alad helped cause he also hates it.

Well, the Quills may exist in all timelines, but that doesn't mean they exist at all points in all timelines

#

I don't know that we've ever seen time-travelling abilities from the Quills

#

Time travel has not really been seen at all outside of 1) whatever Albrecht managed to do and 2) the Spy vaults on Lua (which isn't purposeful)

#

Although there are other instances of time being weird, none of it is time travel per se

rain otter
amber terrace
#

A question about the Quills, what are their origins? Were they basically a priest caste of the Ostrons that then spiraled into a shadowy network of individuals who all seem to know what’s gonna happen next? They seem to have a special interest in Sentient tech, even reaching out to Solaris rail agents just to extract one corpus goober and collaborating with Solaris United to get the ball rolling in killing the Profit Taker

rain otter
#

Also every Quill we know of didn't get captured during the new war.

amber terrace
#

About the seeing different timelines bit, can this be looped back to being able to observe different points on the strand of Khra?

amber terrace
#

And the process of becoming a quill is entirely random/dependent on what the Unum decides to do with you?

rain otter
#

We don't know the extent of the Unums abilites but we know why Onkko did what he did cuz it turned out better for the one he loved.

rain otter
#

The Unum can see timelines and at least show others the timelines maybe even give them the ability to also see them and She can like do TIMESTOP like we see in the New war.

#

also she has the power of being gay with Gara.

amber terrace
#

Ah, so the quills exist entirely to serve the Unum and it just so happens that the Unum’s “goals” mostly line up with the Tenno’s goals?

rain otter
#

yes.

amber terrace
#

The one thing I’m still curious about is the Quill’s fascination and adeptness with Sentient tech

She also Like i said was a Tenno ally during the old war and even like was with Gara her love during the fall.

she is like Old or older than the old war.

#

she is probably the Tenno's oldest Ally.

#

also the Amps and things are made of Sentient parts and stuff cuz like it's a good void conductor lmao.

#

like how the human body is a good electricy conductor.

#

I mean like i said the Unum also fought Sentients actually after the Orokin Fell.

near rune
#

Well yeah but that doesn't necessarily mean you're skilled with Sentient tech. It just means you're good at fighting.

#

So the process of becoming a Quill is that one day you’re walking around and suddenly the Unum talks to you and gives you exclusively the knowledge you need to know for your role in the Unum’s plan, and for some Quills that just so happens to be being able to view select points in a given Strand Of Khra?

near rune
rain otter
#

but yeah I would really like to know more about the Unum. Like the section in the New War was so cool and made me want to know more.

#

which i think is the correct way to do lore and just games and whatever it's better to have people wanting more than not.

near rune
#

The Unum will also speak to others, non-Quills. Sometimes she may show you your future, or just a random riddle. She chooses who to speak to. People show up and throw piles of money at her and only receive silence.

rain otter
#

yeah.

#

people also call her the Wall i guess.

#

we see her talk to us and mask girl like i said.

near rune
#

Oh you mean Nakak

Could be. She doesn't seem too happy with that idea though.
Nakak: "Is that why the Unum chose me for this? Thanks for the nightmares! Glad that's over. If you need me, I'll be under Nana's blanket with a flask of hot chimurr."

#

I did always find it weird that Konzu chose Nakak to be the Operational Supply vendor

rain otter
#

yeah.

amber terrace
#

If I had to wager a guess, it’s probably the fact that Nakak is immediately friendly with outsiders

near rune
#

That could be it. But she's also just a (seemingly unsupervised?) child

amber terrace
#

True

near rune
#

I forgot until now just how much cool lore there is with the Ostrons. Thanks, chat

amber terrace
#

A meta answer is that DE probably needed the Plague Star Op Supply vendor to be a vendor that usually doesn’t have a lot going on, and Nakak apparently fills that role

near rune
#

True

#

I was a bit disappointed in how few the Cavia were, and how there weren't that many activities to do with them. Same with the Holdfasts before them. I really liked how Cetus and Fortuna had a big group of vendors all with their own stuff going on. I think DE received the opposite feedback from most players, though, and wanted to simplify things. Sad.

#

But these days I don't check in with Fibonacci much*, I don't see Bird 3 at all, I check with Loid to trade Voca and maybe once in a blue moon to dissolve my Arcanes, and I see Tagfer exactly 5 times a week.
*I actually do see Fibonacci all the time, but that's for record-keeping purposes, not gameplay

Yes and no

They are same person but in different time line

also the drifter is the one that finds Lotus' Hand in duviri and brings it back to the real WOrld and thus we get Flower lotus and then she regrows lmao.

#

From what I can tell

tropic venture
#

Warframe doesn't really function on direct "parallel timelines/multiverses" as directly as a lot of other media does

prime lantern
#

Drifter is a product of your deal with the man in the wall wally got rid of a whole bunch of you (infinite -2) for reasons but kept Drifter because 4d cheating

prime lantern

Which is what most media uses for a multiverse

tropic venture

Unrealized Drifter and then utilizing the zariman to re realize him

I can save them all of them

Drifter was one of them

yeah Wally seems to have some level of precognition, like how he showed us Ballas and such before the New War cause he knew Ballas would become desperate and open Void gates

prime lantern

Well yea he has precog

Hmmm

#

I'm leaning towards a 4th secret basis vector rather than just metaphorical jumbo

tropic venture
#

It seems to be at least Void connected, since Kuva could bring the Liches back from it, and Requiem mods can be used to sever their connection to it

prime lantern

Metaphors arnt my thing

prime lantern

#

The drifter and Operators timelines are also werid cuz it seems the mitw like destoryed all our verisons of us except the drifter and operator. @tropic venture

#

also also

#

the Unum can see timelines

#

why can she and what are her powers? WE DONT KNOW. she has TIME POWERS AND CAN BE IN PEOPLES HEADS?

#

SHE WAS GAY WITH GARA? that's all we know.

tropic venture
#

the Unum's "temple Kuva" is also blue, not red

rain otter
#

they have both we haven't seen blue since the story.

also the Quills are the most successful faction in warframe.

The Quills and thus the unum being behind everything is very funny though.

"Something like that"

tropic venture

Does Lotus know there’s a new taller kid?

tropic venture
#

well, yes, Drifter interacted with her in TNW

#

...did your friend play it for you or something?

nova harness
#

Some characters seem to not know

tropic venture
#

yes, Konzu at first just worries how long he's been veiled
"Ai-yo... has it been so long?"

#

but why would Lotus not know

#

Her attacking the Drifter is the climax right before Drifter and Operator get fully linked again, giving Drifter the Void powers

#

and Drifter/Operator talk to her as one at the end of TNW

rain otter
#

Also the Lotus was with the Drifter in Duviri.

tropic venture
#

yeah, that's what the Guiding hand is

rain otter
#

As a hand but the Drifter is the one that like found her and she helped then escape and the Drifter nurses her back to health.

#

Cuz that's what you do to like a hand that helped you escape a hell dimension I guess.

tropic venture
#

yeah, Ballas chopped of Lotus' hand, then stabs Operator, "You can't kill the Devil, Tenno. But you can send it back to Hell."
Drifter's execution is interrupted by them being stabbed by an ethereal Paracesis, and a voice echoes "You can't kill the Devil...", and in comes crashing Lotus' hand

rain otter
#

The operator is trapped in the Void. Which is a funny way to deal with us.

tropic venture
tropic venture
rain otter
#

Yee.

#

Still super funny we regrew Lotus from her hand. Like a starfish.

tropic venture
#

hence why he's so pissed when he notices they're somehow back

He's more pissed that like we are back but he can't controll us.

But yeah.

yeah, his control over everyone else doesn't matter to him, cause he believes they all "wanted" that control deep-down anyways

The new war is a fever dream to me.
Dying to some Orokin prick, then sent to a Ship that seems familiar. Before meeting taller me, having a drink and suddenly teleported back to Warframe.

And taller me had to go through an entirely different game of horses, guns and dual swords. Then trying to save the world by removing Dream Masks off from people and avoiding floating ghosts with stupidly unpredictable detection. Just to feed a dying mom rock candy.

All while barely escaping Alive with a Bow from a spine from a giant space crab robot with a dark Excalibur with a scythe.

Just to stop a orokin who took over the world with a stupid red circles and stole the last jolly rancher in Warframe.

That never happened to the Drifter.

@sacred flint also the Duviri quest while not explicitly saying the Lotus hand is like how we got back lotus after lotus and the operator where thrown into the Void. Like the Drifter gets out of the Void and is found by Ordis then the part of the new war where we Play as the Drifter happens.

# cyan crest what in the world is a pager

It's basically a device that can only send and receive simple text messages. Some pagers only receive messages and can't send. In the old days you'd page someone a phone number (like a nearby pay phone) and they'd go find a phone and call you at that number. That's how you'd communicate when you're out and about before cell phones.

nova harness

Nowadays only hospitals use them

#

Mobile phones kinda took their place

Yeah the function of text messaging is done by normal phones these days. Pagers use a different networks than cell networks though, so they can be more reliable, which is why hospitals, emergency services, and the like continue to use them for critical messaging.

The Stalker's sword as bestowed to him by the Sentient Hunhow.

wonder what "VOULL NE XATA VOK, MARA LOHK?" means

prime field
#

something something truth something, void child

obtuse gyro
#

Mara is not confirmed to translate into child

prime field
#

no, but it may as well be a good placeholder

obtuse gyro
#

not much backing to it

#

same goes for thinking Mara translates to demon

prime field
#

Tagfer yells it at you to get your attention, so anything that describes the operator is a good placeholder

#

child, demon, whatever

obtuse gyro
#

which is why Im extremely hesitant to label it under child nor demon

prime field
#

I'm the opposite lol

obtuse gyro
#

because there are still many other descriptors that fit not only the operator but also the Drifter

prime field
#

like demon and child, because even when you grow up you're still a kid to somebody

#

Wally still calls you kid even when you're the Drifter

obtuse gyro
#

it could mean demon, it could mean child, it could mean manifestation, there are many descriptors that fit the Operator/Drifter, that is why I am far from comfortable

obtuse gyro
#

he's not calling you kiddo because youre a child, he's calling your kiddo because your dad called you kiddo

#

the same way he called albrecht little bengel

prime field
#

it's been a long time since I played wherever we hear the Operator's father, I'm gonna assume Second Dream

obtuse gyro
#

yep

weary bramble
#

assumed he called us kiddo because he is infinitely older than us

obtuse gyro
#

no he's really just copying your dad

#

he's scrolled your brain and found that one endearing nickname

prime field
#

but just because he's mimicking the Operator's father doesn't mean he's not calling you "void kid" when speaking in Void tongue

obtuse gyro
prime field
#

no it means none of it's evidence either way in your way of thinking

obtuse gyro
#

because that wouldnt apply to tagfer, who is staring at a warframe and not a child

prime field
#

the Cavia animals knew what a Tenno was

obtuse gyro

#

and I still disagree, so... 🤷

obtuse gyro
#

I mean like feel free, just know that we both agree that you dont have sufficient evidence to determine the meaning of mara beyond "might be referring to operator/drifter"

prime field
#

and we both agree you don't have sufficient evidence to completely dismiss it, glad we're agreed

weary bramble
#

creatively, Wally is very good eldritch horror

#

very well made so far

obtuse gyro
#

I'm not saying it doesnt mean child, Im saying you cannot prove it

prime field
#

but I'm not trying to prove it, nor do I want to. I'm fine with using it as a placeholder that makes sense, when we know Wally is asking a question thanks to subtitles, and it's a 50/50 that it has to be some kind of descriptor/name.

#

gonna pretend for now he's asking, "??? truth, void child?" and I'm gonna keep assuming mara means child because of Tagfer hollering it at us, because he and Fishonachi and I maybe even Bird 3 knew what a Tenno was, and I'm pretty sure they weren't in the room when NecraLoid told Loid-Loid that we're Tenno, which Loid still had no idea what that was, he was literally in stasis

obtuse gyro
#

I dont know if they even know what the Tenno actually is

#

because none of them were around to type out the stuff on the computer

#

Loid most likely knew of warframes, since he was the one who was liasing research on Archon Shards, which yknow, part of the thing was in a warframe, and his boo, literally designed the Vessel out of the helminth and gray strain

#

And knowing that basic foot soldiers have heard rumours of the tenno, but only then conflating that with the warframe

#

I dont think Loid, or the Cavia were immediately aware of the "this is a child" thing

Why wouldn't it? You have noticed the ridiculous amount of weird crap that happens to anyone and anything exposed directly to the Void, yes? Why wouldn't they have gained knowledge about other things? Why was Fishonacci so sure Wally didn't want them to be able to speak? Presumably he's still trying to shut them up/take over the lab, even after Fibonacci was able to tattle on Loid over the final piece of the grimoire. Why isn't knowledge of the Tenno, someone who's also had direct contact with the void, something they could have been given when they were changed too?

The cavia are conteptually embodied the same way in which the holdfasts are right

The cavia are still using their original bodies, very similar to us

but unlike us, they've died, like the holdfasts

prime lantern

#

that's me putting a guess to what "mara" means based on evidence that "mara lohk" is likely a name in void tongue to refer to the Operator/Drifter, given to them by Wally, and also used by Tagfer

obtuse gyro
#

Why wouldn't it? You have noticed the ridiculous amount of weird crap that happens to anyone and anything exposed directly to the Void, yes? Why wouldn't they have gained knowledge about other things?
Because out of all the previous cases of "void exposure" sudden innate knowledge of another void touched being has never been seen before. All the weird stuff has happened, all those people exposed and made out of the void and none of them have displayed such intimate knowledge of the tenno before. Not even the holdfasts, who only knew us because they rescued the Drifter/Operator after the drive knocked out our transference, and that we were also from the zariman

Why was Fishonacci so sure Wally didn't want them to be able to speak? Presumably he's still trying to shut them up/take over the lab, even after Fibonacci was able to tattle on Loid over the final piece of the grimoire. Why isn't knowledge of the Tenno, someone who's also had direct contact with the void, something they could have been given when they were changed too?
I dont see the comparison between "Fib stating a possible event where the Murmur take over the labs and subsequent results" versus "suddenly gaining intimate and innate knowledge of the tenno"
Fib can easily reason what might happen if the Murmur reach them in the Sanctum, something that within the area where he goes "Allow me to boil this down for you: should the Indifference's corrupting touch reach us and take back our speech? We would be screwed." he also mentions, shown in "Arousing as I'm sure this is for you, the rest of us are moments away from an extinction grim, black, and FINAL! So. If you would be so kind. Finish up. So I can point you toward that sodding page."

furthermore, The cavia, and thus fib, are fully aware that Wally gave them speech, and thus fib would understandably be very worried if Wally's goons came around and removed that "gift" from fib, something that the yapper evidently doesnt want

# prime lantern Saying "well you can't prove me wrong" as evidence is an appeal to ignorance

They literally cannot tell me I'm wrong. It's ALL speculation until we get more confirmed translations, which is the point of discussion of context clues and other hints given. It's to have fun guessing. Wally is asking some kind of question when he says, "Voull ne TRUTH vok, mara VOID?" It's not out of the realm of possibility that "mara lohk" is a name for the Operator/Drifter. We're literally a void child. He calls us kiddo (even if he's just mimicking our father). Tagfer yells it at us to get our attention. That's why I think it means "child", and it doesn't matter if someone else doesn't agree, because all it is is some guesswork based on a few other context clues until the writers finally fill it in some more for us.

You've sure been coming across that way, regardless.

obtuse gyro

I mean, I apologize if thats what you got, but if you look back at:

Mara is not confirmed to translate into child
not much backing to it
same goes for thinking Mara translates to demon

which is why Im extremely hesitant to label it under child nor demon
because there are still many other descriptors that fit not only the operator but also the Drifter

but it also means that using "he's called us kiddo" is not evidence for it

which brings us back to why I think its not comfortable to attach a word to Mara yet

I'm not saying it doesnt mean child, Im saying you cannot prove it

None of these say "Youre wrong about it being child"

prime lantern
prime field

I don't think I was ever trying to say I'm 100% right either, so why would I need to prove anything. I said I think it's fine to use it as a placeholder for the meaning of "mara".

Now in the distance between the earth and the sun there is a teapot belonging to a Mr Russell it is so small not even the hubble telescope could find it

You know what, yeah. Gimme some evidence, bud.

After all the teapot is to small to ever be located

obtuse gyro
# prime field I don't think I was ever trying to say I'm 100% right either, so why would I nee...

I think what happened is that you thought I was denying the possibility that Mara meant child or something more definitive, which very clearly based on all my responses I wasnt. However, in your defence of your stance that you are comfortable with attaching a definite meaning, you've transformed my "It could mean any descriptor of the Op/Drifter" into "it cannot mean child" which again, I've never said. To which you then attempted to defend that with "You cant prove it doesnt mean that" to which I never attempted to, all I did was indicate that you cant prove that it has a definite meaning. If you want to give a placeholder by all means go ahead, the only issue is that many others havent been using it as a placeholder, but rather a definite meaning, which might result in others not seeing it as a placeholder but rather a concrete meaning even if you decided to make it a placeholder

That aside, stating that there is no evidence to prove a point wrong, thus making the point plausible or correct, is the textbook definition of the appeal to ignorance fallicy, which Im sure you didnt intend to make.

prime field
#

No, I was just outright stating there's no evidence to prove "child" is an incorrect translation. Because there isn't. Just like there's none to prove what it actually is. There's literally none. It's all speculation.

obtuse gyro
#

Which is my point, and to why I hesitate to even give it a placeholder, something you dont agree with

prime field
#

I don't, because when you're speculating, you have to guess.

obtuse gyro
#

stating there's no evidence to prove "child" is an incorrect translation.
But this is still an appeal to ignorance

None of the both of us called for proof that it was incorrect

prime field
#

You literally told me at one point that I had to prove it. Maybe I misunderstood.

Many of the Orokin names we have heard we know they have another meaning especially the one the Family Gives us Ayatan.

So the chance that "Mara" has a double meaning is not unlikely especially when we have the Mara Detron.

Yes.

Before the Tenent Detron came out it was the better Detron.
