Some information about Ratatoskr

[JeniLinsky]

I'm curious to see if we'll get to know more about Ratatoskr, as well as what she looked like.

I suspect she looked like a squirrel.

I suspect she looked like a squirrel.

Hmm, well, Hraesvelgr was named after an eagle and has feathers and stuff. So maybe Ratatoskr was fuzzy/furry with a fluffy tail? Hard to use Nidhogg as an aid for apearence since the Mythological one was already a dragon.

Possible, but I kind of doubt it. We have that stylized picture of her and Thordan from Hraesvelgr's retelling and the concept art of Midgardsormr and his children, and while the latter's obviously not completely reliable, she's not furry there.

She's presumably the one on the right, opposite Tiamat.

Nope, landlords are indeed men.

What I don't understand is: why is there Landlord architecture on Azyz Lla? (the "Cathedral with a high-tech spearhead in it)

thats a total different thing.

For one, it could be historical, pre-technological Allagan architecture. Second, it would be impossible for it to be Landlord, as Azys Lla predates the Landlords by Eras. Lastly, it lacks key similarities to the architecture we know to be Landlord such as the very iconic dragon iconography.

That's Allagan architecture. There are runes/carvings on the rocks which match up almost exactly to the runes/carvings seen throughout the Labyrinth of the Ancients and early parts of Syrcus Tower.

Given there was a museum at Azys Lla (the Fractal Continuum), I wouldn't be surprised to see something historical to their nation as well, although given the Labyrinth of the Ancients and party of Syrcus Tower, they seemed to have a thing for stonework despite their advances. Either way that damned Cathedral shot down my theory about the Twelve, seeing as it seems to be a Cathedral in honor of Azeyma. If I had to put forward a new theory, I'd suggest that the Labyrinth of the Ancients (and this Cathedral) was "of the Ancients" even to the Allag.

[Zohar_Lahar]

I suppose you're right. They did look slightly similar to the Labyrinth of the Ancients when I went there last night.

[myahele]

Oh my, I had no idea that Cathedral was Allagan due to the Azyma symbols all over the place, though I guess it does makes sense due to it being in Azys Lla and the Allagan's reverence to the Sun

I suppose pre-magitek Allagans worshipped azeyma?
