Thread: Alliance Raid 6.3 tidbits from the trailer

I'm not sure I'd go with that look either. But I'm also not sure how an austere emperor wielding a mythril greataxe is supposed to look like. Slightly disappointed that Menphina doesn't show off her Julian Mandeville cosplay. Unless she pops a skillet out during her fight at some point. The moon in Elpis does look funny and out of place. It also seems to only show up during the Astral weather at night. Though Elpis is so bright that even at night it doesn't ever look like night even if you're able to see the stars.

Yeah, Althyk looks very dull, but I can't say he is one of my favorites because his backstory with Nymeia is very creepy, though of course very in line with Olympians and ancient pantheons in general.
I'm more excited for the gods in the next raid because we'll get a double doze of extremely pretty lads with Thaliak and Oschon.

Another thing about Althyk though is that you can briefly see him riding on some sort of a steed in the trailer.
Menphina's wolf companion has this disk-like object on top of it, I wonder if that's supposed to symbolize the skillet or something else entirely.

Here's my wild prediction: Zeus is going to be involved in some way, possibly the final boss of 6.5 Alliance raid.
And yes, I base all of this solely on the fact that the raids are named after the three graces Aglaia, Euphrosyne and Thalia, which in Greek mythology are the daughters of Zeus.

If this was the case, then Zeus and the Twelve being related to the ancients is inevitable. The pandemonium raid has really double downed on greek mythology references, I think only of all the bosses Proto-Carbuncle has no connection to greek mythology. I'm unsure whether Greek mythology is somehow connected to other parts of the lore outside of the ancients, but I think the hints are starting to pile towards ancients being somehow responsible, and now the last boss seat is an unknown contender, or at least of the final bosses.

This also makes me wonder, since Greek mythology is being pushed in the Pandemonium raid, there are some connections to the alliance raid. Probably not though, but Greek mythology is a factor that ties both of the raids.

Not really related to the thread but I had to get this off my chest: Halone looks like an Angewomon digivolution.

Looks more like Lenneth Valkyrie to me.

Perhaps the "whorl" the first of the Twelve were believed to have sprung forth from is an actual entity as opposed to some kind of natural phenomena?

There was that one portal that wasn't attached to a domain of gods, so whatever is there (maybe... an underworld god and a half to bring it up to 14 since Nald'thal is like, 12.5 and they like their 14 allegories? A forgotten god from the pantheon?) is likely the final boss.

I like this idea, actually. Leans into the notion of Chaos without BEING Chaos.
