Lore Book Revelations

[Belhi]

One interesting thing I noticed in the section on voidsent is the mention that Cuchulainn was once a champion who wielded auracite to control primals, which seems to imply that many of the higher tier voidsent are actually corrupted warriors of light?

That suggests that Unukalhai's world was the 13th and he is a 'survivor' of it falling into void. That's very interesting.

I thought that was obvious. Unukalhai's world was destroyed. The only one of the fragments to get destroyed was the 13th.

Is there any information on Ysayle?

It seems I've seen pages/ info on just about every other topic/ character except her.

I'm still missing a lot. Rowena, Yugiri, any of the Mandervilles, Matoya, and Ysayle.

That's not true. Actually technically the 13th wasn't destroyed as much as turned into a void of darkness.

However 7 worlds have been destroyed. that's what happens whenever there is a calamity.

I think Balipu worded it awkwardly, but his point was correct. Unukulhai's story told of how his world was consumed by darkness and lost due to great warriors using primal-infused auracite that slowly corrupted them. Since we know all the other lost reflection worlds were Rejoined via calamity it was logical deduction that Unukulhai's world had to have been the 13th as it was the only one to have been lost due to a Flood of Darkness as he described.

Essentially Unukulhai came from a world that was outright lost instead of Rejoined and 3.4 revealed that only one world had thus far been lost in such a way: the 13th. Thus the 13th had to be Unukulhai's world.

There was speculation immediately following 3.4 that all the ruling tier voidsent were the 13th's WoLs that Unukulhai spoke of. The lorebook has at least confirmed one such to be true. I wonder if the Cloud of Darkness and Scathach may be corrupted warriors as well.

Well I guess we will find out in 3.5. with the new 2.4-man.

Uh, which one was confirmed to be a corrupted WoL again?

[Balipu]

Pretty sure I saw them all in the book - even if it was just a little bit of information on each. I haven't read through it all yet though.

Yeah I know. But I don't have the book. And I couldn't find scans about any of them. Judging from the Oboro and Karasu entries Yugiri Mistwalker is not Yugiri's actual full name. For Rowena the question is her aim with all the tomestones, for the Mandervilles....mostly more info on the Gold Saucer and maybe any hints at more family members. Is Hildibrand an only child? Is there a grandmother or someone even Julyen is affrain of?

I think Balipu worded it awkwardly

Please don't say that. I have a degree in linguistics. Sure it is still present so it isn't literally destroyed, but it is irreversably lost to the darkness. For all intents and purposes it is gone.

If Yugiri has a family/clan name the Lore Book doesn't give it.

Rowena genuinely doesn't seem to be doing anything with the tomestones but selling them, the more interesting question is who's she selling them to. The section on Allagan Chimera talks about how scholars thought creatures like Hydra were natural until they started deciphering the tomestones so I suspect that our ultimate buyers may be Sharlayan.

Julyan is afraid of aging. Despite being a mother to a man of twenty-three summers she claims to still be a very young woman and it is extremely dangerous to suggest that she owes her fresh looks to the best alchemical creams and tonics the Manderville fortune can buy.

Wow. Thanks, you are my hero. Any indication of what Yugiri was the Lady of? She leads the refugees, sure but did she lead Doma as well?

Twenty-three summers? Godbert? Seven hells! How often do they have summers there? I'm twenty five years old.

Uh, which one was confirmed to be a corrupted WoL again?

Chuchulain, he is described as one of the champions of the 13th that was corrupted by auracite. This description matches exactly with Unukulhai's story. Neither explicitly use the term 'Warrior of Light' but the 'champions' or 'great warriors' of the various worlds are likely to be their equivalent of us. The fact that they were capable of slaughtering primals en masse, as per Unukulhai's story, means they almost certainly posessed the Echo at the very least.

I meant no offense in saying that. Your statement was ambiguous though as it is debatable whether Rejoined worlds could also be considered 'destroyed' or not. That was the point that caused confusion. I merely expanded on your argument. I understood what you meant, but others did not.
