[3.0] Sumeru Lore Roundup - What we learned from the Archon and Aranara quests

SPOILER WARNING!! If you have not completed Pages of Purana acts one and two, AND all four acts of the Aranara World Quest Series put this video on your watch later list. There was an absolutely massive amount of lore dropped with Genshin Impact v3.0 and it took a while to sift through it all. This video isn't going to serve as a recap for all of the stuff that takes place in the quests, but instead it will consolidate all of the key things we learned minus a few things that will be getting their own videos like the Ruin Golem. **TIMESTAMPS** 0:00 Introduction 0:57 The Irminsul Tree 4:10 The Akasha System 9:48 Knowledge Capsules 14:40 Sumeru's History (Timeline) 19:30 The Withering 20:46 The Aranara 24:58 Seelies and the Moon Sisters 28:41 Rapid-Fire Roundup (Small bits of lore)

okay listen i was expecting to have a lot of lore drop right into my lap when 3.0 dropped but i was not prepared for this amount between both archon quests ignari's story quest and the whole r r world quest series there is a lot to sift through originally i was just going to recap everything since all these quests were really dense and long but in the end i realized that chronologically summarizing these events would just make things even more confusing because i'd have to explain everything out
of order so instead i would like to spend this whole video focused on the big and important things that we learned from the archon and r requests instead so while i'm not going to recap the events of these quest lines i am going to be spoiling a lot of it so if you haven't completed the quest and i'm listing on screen right now then please proceed with caution this is your final spoiler warning okay if you watch past this point i'm just gonna assume that you've either done these quests or that
you're just fine with spoilers okay here we go let's start off with the earman soul tree because without this tree for context a lot of the other lore bits don't make any sense at all so the ear mensil is this thing yes it's a giant pink tree but functionally it's more like a combination of a human heart and a human brain that's kind of been mushed together into one magical doohickey of a world organ that powers the entire globe that was confusing i'm sorry it's basically the heart of the world
okay and everything else is a vascular system now i call it a brain because the tree stores all of the memory data for everything that ever existed within tivat and it's like a heart because it uses its roots like a vascular system to circulate memories and elemental energy throughout the entire world when anything dies into that it returns to the roots of the earman sole which we call the ley lines where they are stored and circulated for further use however because this memory data is stored a
nd not destroyed damaging the ley lines can allow for memories and elemental energy to leak out leaked memories can manifest into ghostly apparitions that appear to be sentient and leaked elemental energy can cause environmental phenomenon known as leyline disorders the fog on surumi island for example is considered a ley line disorder with that context of the earman soul basically being the embodiment of tavot's circle of life the first part of the archon quest should start to make a little bit
more sense the earman soul containing all the memories of the world is part of an enormous repository of accumulated knowledge which is why so many academia students try to connect it directly to it using the spirit borneal incense that we see in the very beginning of the archon quest the traveler being the little lucky ducky that they are is able to connect to the ear midsole directly on accident with just one whiff of the stuff tynari tells us that the original dendo archon had her consciousn
ess directly linked to the earman's soul while she was alive and that it is her voice we heard saying the words world forget me through the ear mensal that implies that at least some of her residual consciousness is still somewhat aware of what's going on and may intentionally be reaching out to us for some reason because you know we're magical plot armored deity god protagonist people yeah but during the second arikon quest kusanali expresses concern that the irman soul is slowly dying and that
greater lord ruka davada's last message is the key to finding a way to heal it because if we don't then all of to that will die along with it which is great now later on during the r r quest line we learned that the phenomenon known as the withering is the manifestation of the earmen souls affection the one that kusanali is trying to cure we'll cover this infection a little bit later when we talk more about the rnr just remember that the withering and the earman cell are connected for now now t
echnically speaking the only pieces of new information here are related to the ear missiles infection and the greater lord ruka tavata's connection to the tree itself everything else that i've laid out here has been pieced together from fragments of lore scattered in various places throughout the entire game but i've marked this whole thing as new and important and put it at the very beginning of the video because it's been explicitly confirmed now the earman cell and the leyline's functions are
actually very critical for understanding how the world of tivat functions memories are literally the lifeblood of tivat and nowhere is this more apparently illustrated for us than in our next topic the akasha system on a technical level the akasha system is actually pretty simple it's basically a cloud server or a local internet with the akasha terminals acting like a bluetooth headset that you can control with your brain it's kind of like being able to think okay akasha what's the answer to my
question and then have akasha dump the info directly into your brain after retrieving it from the cloud servers it's kind of like going okay google okay siri help me out here that said it's got a limited range and seems to work best in city so mostly in you know sumaru city and port hormos that's basically all there is to it but the sketchy part about this is that the akasha appears to be somewhat sentient because it can decide to just not give you information unlike our modern search engines i
n real life like google we do still have some level of anonymity i mean it's not much but we still have some whereas with the akasha you have none because of that the akasha knows basically everything there is to know about you and it is able to therefore decide what you should and should not know and gives you new information based on that which is creepy even sketchier is that the system can both grant knowledge and compile knowledge not unlike certain search engines that we know and it acquir
es that directly from your brain which is different from things like google they are not quite in my brain yet i hope anyway the main reason people in sumeria think that they don't dream is because the akasha system effectively harvests data from their dreams and compiles it into its personal databases effectively erasing any memories of the dream itself and if the idea of harvesting information or knowledge or data from dreams confuses you my pseudo-scientific answer to this would be that it pr
obably has something to do with the function of sleep when it comes to the brain because like technically sleep isn't necessary for the body it's only necessary for the brain your body is just fine just resting while the true purpose of dreaming is unconfirmed scientists have long believed that dreams are one of the many methods by which your brain processes new information and then commits it to long-term memory by weaving fragments of memories and newly acquired information altogether this pro
cess is called memory consolidation and i think that's what genshin is trying to go for here with the akasha's dream harvesting system thing perhaps it's able to parse through the thought fragments and then recompile them into its own databases to me that sounds like it's probably within its capabilities now during the second part of the archon quest the stages of the academia leverage the akasha system's dream harvesting function to effectively force every person wearing a terminal into the exa
ct same dream in this case one hosted by nilu unaware that they were dreaming everyone relived the same day over and over and over and over again how many times i don't know i lost count and this caused extreme mental fatigue in the case of some people like junior zod the mental fatigue was actually fatal yes i know she's alive at the end of the quest but kusanali does claim that she died at one point but as far as i can tell this might have been like a brain death kind of thing and kusanali was
later able to venture into the endless realm of the dream spaces to find whatever was left of junior's art's mind and then recover it hence why she didn't actually die outside the dream yeah it's kind of a cop-out if you want my opinion but anyway the most interesting thing about this dream loop is how the traveler described the spaces outside the dream after they left the city they said there were countless spaces filled with bizarre and fantastic things and that these should have been the ind
ividual dream spaces of each person who had been sucked into nilu's dream i imagine that these spaces are reminiscent of like a lot of bubbles some are adjacent to each other and some aren't they're kind of connected but also they're entirely separate if this description sounds a little bit familiar to you you either play hong kai and are thinking of bubble universes or you might have watched this video of mine on domains where i talk about the exact same thing that said if you're new to the cha
nnel and you haven't watched it please do i feel like this whole bubble concept is going to become very important in light of recent events anyway at the end of each dream loop the akasha terminal that the person is wearing beeps and at that moment in time all of the dreams in this endless dream space were consumed by a bright light that looked like the sun in the sky in my opinion that light has to have been the akasha system i'm not exactly certain how many dream loops passed because i didn't
bother counting but it was a lot and i'm not really sure that that matters apart from it just being a lot as for the purpose of the controlled mass harvesting of dreams well i think dia was probably right when she said that the sages might be trying to create a giant hive mind or at least bolster the akasha system with a massive influx of data as for why they would want to do this i think it might be because they need the data for a big project in my opinion the resurrection of ruka davada or th
e creation of an artificial gnosis in my opinion an artificial gnosis construction actually makes sense here since the akasha system needs a noses to operate and gnosis just means knowledge well in the case of genshin it means divine knowledge kind of like the divine knowledge capsule huh and considering the fact that the academia has banned the use of knowledge capsules while continuing to use them for themselves for unknown purposes and then they proceeded to lose this super special divine kno
wledge capsule in the desert i think the idea of creating an artificial gnosis actually has some merit but maybe we should look into the knowledge capsules a little bit more first knowledge capsules also known as canned knowledge are basically like usb flash drives for the akasha terminals this is noteworthy because the akasha decides what people can and cannot learn but knowledge capsules lack this function anyone who has the capsule can have that knowledge it's uncensored so to speak it's obvi
ous that a governing body that wants to control the flow of information wouldn't want that kind of thing to be easy to access so it makes sense that the sumeru academia higher-ups would ban them but it's not as simple as all that at least not if al haitham is to be believed now during the archon quest he says that people who seek out these knowledge capsules are quote unsatisfied with the path chosen for them by the akasha and wish to change their fate now if the akasha decides someone's fate by
deciding what they should and shouldn't know then that's huge because the other thing that decides a person's fate is their constellation which is in the sky which is like a god level thing and obviously the akasha is powered by a god so there's also that now if you weren't around for the unreconciled stars event way back in 1.1 this video may interest you because it is actually relevant again cause during that event we learned that the sky is not only just a lie but the stars aren't really sta
rs at all they're just rocks masquerading as stars that are scattered throughout the firmament but these rocks that are pretending to be stars are suspiciously similar to these things we know as earman's soul fruit and if you remember earlier when i explained how ear mensil is this world tree that that's like the heart of to that then you might see where i'm going with all of this if ear mensil sucks up memories in the same way normal trees suck up water and nutrients then it's going to use thos
e memories that it absorbs eventually to create a fruit those fruits i've suggested hang in the sky as stars and dictate the fates of those into that now before you tell me that the earman soul is underground yes yes i know that but also remember that this is a magic tree whose branches and roots could be physically separate from the main trunk and still connected to each other at least if the description of the leyline sprouts and branches are anything to go by and there are places in game that
talk about this inverted tree in the sky and so this is all definitely connected somehow and one day i'll put this all together in another coherent video but that day is not today anyway knowledge capsules can easily be likened to earman's soul fruit as they are literally seeds of knowledge that are just chock full of memories which when used can let the user literally change their fate by giving them entirely new skill sets and information that they can do something else with it's kind of like
wishing on a shooting star only that star as a usb drive you know and since elemental energy and memories are stored in the earman sole it makes sense that you can use elemental sight to determine the quality of the capsule's contents which we did in the quest a higher elemental energy concentration most likely means that there's a higher concentration of memories inside as well therefore dense capsules are more likely of higher quality which is why al haytham suggests using this ability in the
first place so basically to tie this back to the whole gnosis idea i kind of think that they're probably trying to you know like consolidate whatever fragments of ruka devadas and you know memories that they have into one divine knowledge capsule and that would make something that's kind of akin to a gnosis it's possible it's a little bit of a stretch i think they're gonna try it because you see there's actually more evidence for this see it's worth pointing out that the divine knowledge capsul
e is red but normal knowledge capsules are actually green green is usually a color that's associated with something being safe and red is usually a color associated with something being not so safe in this case i'm gonna say that green knowledge capsules are pretty standard that's how they normally look but when the red light comes on that means there's something wrong with your data and it's probably a little corrupted which is why when this dude the captain of the inel akmar used it he went a
little bonkers and the only way to stop him was to shut down his akasha terminal because you know that kind of disrupts the flow of information or at least i'm guessing at that part however that really wasn't my point here my point was that this dude who used it he's the captain of the in el akmar he did so by thinking he'd obtain the knowledge of their god the aramaic god the scarlet king but this capsule actually probably more likely contained some amount of ruka devada's knowledge instead bec
ause the words he uttered when he was starting to pass out were hers she literally said world forget me and that's what he said as he's kind of being dragged away so since this capsule is the one that the academia supposedly lost in the desert and was trying to retrieve i'm pretty convinced they're trying to bring her back or they're trying to build her knowledge into an artificial gnosis one of the two one of the two they're gonna do one of them and that just about covers it for the arkon quest
we're gonna move on to the arinara it seems like a lot of people have had a really hard time following the r r quest line because the r and r themselves over complicate the lore it's it's not them it's just the way that they're written in the way that they're presented the things that the r r actually tell us are very simple and surprisingly straightforward for this game but the problem is that they give us this information out of order out of context and in kind of jumbled sentences with words
that they never define which makes things feel way more complex than they actually are so to simplify things i'm going to do something i don't usually do and i'm going to present you a timeline of sumeru and then we're going to go into more detail about each of the things that we cover once this context is in place i feel like without the timeline it's just gonna be a lot of info dumping and no one's gonna be able to digest it so that's why we're doing this okay here we go basically thousands o
f years ago before the arkhan war all of sumera was valuca that means sand or desert within this desert there were three gods worth remembering for the sake of this video they were the scarlet king the goddess of flowers and ruka davada these three gods were friends and each of them pursued wisdom in their own unique way everything was fine in the desert and then all sorts of bad stuff happens and the goddess of flower dies and then the scarlet king goes mad with grief because he was really into
the goddess of flowers the only thing that matters here is timing because it's around this point in time supposedly that ruka davada tries to create an oasis within the desert in other words her early forest wasn't really a forest at all because it was still full of sand but that forest did become the rest of the forested reason of sumeru that we know today in these early days ruka davada also known then as queen aranyani to the arnara anyway so if you hear that name that's who it is it's ruka
davada she sang a very powerful magic song to the earman soul and that summoned a very special tree called the ashvatha tree and from that tree a pomegranate fell which is weird because that tree is technically supposed to be a fig tree but anyway that pomegranate produced the race of the arnara from its seeds it's technically more accurate to say that all the aronara are the seeds from the pomegranate not just that they came from the seeds because they are seeds but we'll get to that just hang
on thousands of years after this event the cataclysm of conriya descended upon zumeru and ruka nevadas returned to the irminsul tree in order to quote heal the world but she never returned and is presumed dead now around this time the abyssal monsters appeared black rain fell from a black sky and the dark mud covered the ground with quote toxic blood all of these phenomena were caused by the abyss which the arnara call the marana and they say that the marana is the memory of death that exists wi
thin the ear mensal and is therefore the infection within the ear mensal they say the marana can turn the forest into sand and that it sucks life from everything it touches for example it creates withering zones this marana force is what destroyed the original home of the arnara and forced them to relocate now the exact timing of the next events are a little bit unclear but sometime either during or slightly after the cataclysm the traveler's sibling visits the arnara but does not give their nam
e now we can pinpoint this time roughly due to the absence of danesliff as well as the presence of the abyssal corruption aka the marana if that confuses you i'll just remind you that danesliff and the traveler's sibling traveled together for an extended period of time but they split due to a difference of opinions during the cataclysm after danesliff apparently betrayed everybody or something to that effect that we don't really know the details of since he wasn't there but the abyssal corruptio
n was that implies that the traveler's sibling was there after their breakup so to speak that said it's very unclear whether or not this event takes place before or after the encounter with the sustainer of heavenly principles anywho while with the r r the abyss twin accomplishes quite a few feats most notably though they helped the rnr relocate to their new forest home and then they fixed this thing called the varuna contraption in the apam woods now the varuna contraption helped to purify all
the waters and cleanse the land of all of the black rain and the mud and everything else so the rnr called the abyss twin nara varuna which is basically like calling them the human that fixed the varuna if i want to paraphrase and add a bunch of words in there so anytime you hear the name nara varuna or the golden nara that's probably referring to the traveler's sibling okay so that's the gist of the timeline that we got from the r r now we can get into the details of each of the individual aspe
cts of the events that happened in this timeline that we just laid out let's start with the murana and the withering as i mentioned earlier the withering is one of the forms that marana or the abyss takes it's been present in the nation of sumeru for millennia but if the arenara are remembering things correctly marana wasn't actually present in any of the forested areas until the cataclysm happened 500 years ago the arenara claimed that marana is supposed to be one with the creatures of the abys
s and it's also been called the memory of death as well as the cause of the irman soul sickness so long as the memory of marana exists within ear mensil it cannot be defeated and earmansil will eventually die and to that will die along with it interestingly it's all connected to the black corrosive rain the black skies dark mud like the stuff in the chasm and the rift towns which means that its reach is definitely not limited to sumeru in fact during could have been an avatar of marana and so co
uld the miasmic tumor in the roots of the sacred sakura in inazuma since allowing that to go unchecked can cause the sea to turn black and the land to fill with monsters as far as relevancy goes i'm not quite sure how important the r r will be going forward but i think a lot of their aspects will be important so let me just explain a little bit about who the r r are how they function and what some really interesting details of them are as you probably know by now the rnr used to be visible to ev
eryone as they were originally created to be friends with the humans and it was only after the cataclysm 500 years ago that adults stopped dreaming and they lost their ability to see the arenara the rnr are curious little life forms they're sentient seeds that eventually turn into trees once they have accumulated enough memories now remember what i said earlier about earmensal being the source of all memories a giant tree that's just made of them well if the ashvata tree that the rnr are born fr
om came directly from ear mensal then these little sentient seeds are kind of like walking knowledge capsules with sentience cause like they say some pretty sus things not only do they have to accumulate a massive amount of memories in order to grow into a giant magic tree which is their whole life's purpose they can also cast magic that consumes their own memories they will literally forget things after they use their magic plus they are even caught saying death is just a one-time loss of memor
ies so i can't really tell if they're legitimately immortal and never die or if they just forget everything and therefore become a whole new person because you're defined by your memories and since like araja is like yeah i'm old as hell but those memories don't belong to me so that really wasn't me but yes i've been told that it was me at least in the past and they're literally like walking sentient memory seed things like so strange i can't tell how many of their memories are like individual t
o them and how many of them are like from earman's soul itself like were they seeds that came from earman's soul like they were formed around one specific core memory that came from earmanzel and now they're just like adding all these other memories on it like a big snowball or like i i don't i don't know i don't know i i just don't know but it's really interesting to think about given that the whole function of tevat is based on memories right but while we're on the topic of the really suspicio
us things that the rnrs say arama tells us that there are those who no longer dream and thus can no longer see us and those who have accepted fate and have stopped searching for the way forward now the accepted fate line is weirdly in line with the line that al haytham says in relation to the knowledge capsules remember this the whole unsatisfied with the path chosen for them by the akasha and then the wish to change their fate line yeah that one there's a whole ass theory in there somewhere tha
t i'll try to articulate at some point just not right now but in speaking of stars and fates and the akasha and trees and all this kind of stuff we're thinking about trees and celestial bodies in kind of the same framework right and then we have the arenara over here that keep likening the traveler and their sibling to the sun and they do it way too many times for it not to mean anything i don't know what it means yet but i want to point out that they also like in paimon to the moon and yeah oka
y maybe that's not like super suspicious at first blush because you can compare anything to the sun and anything to the moon if it's gold or silver right at the same time the arianara never call paimon anara never they call every other human anara but not paimon they only call her paimon or white floaty again this might not seem weird but you have to remember that the arnara even recognize hillaturals as nara they call them hilinaras this means that the arnara don't see paimon as anything even r
emotely human which is wild because she looks just about as human as any hilla girl does right but that just means that the arnara recognize whatever race paimon is whether consciously or not so that brings me to my next topic namely the seeley's and the moon sisters up until this point there's been like no actual solid confirmation that the three moons in the sky were a real thing or that the moon sisters were a real thing or that sealies were actually a race at some point it's always legend ha
s it or the stories go that or at one point in time or once upon a time or whatever it is all conjecture no one knew if this was like anecdotal or real history it's looking like it's real history if you haven't heard about the moon sisters or the steely race before well here's the tl dr basically at one point in ancient history like pre-archon war history tavat had three moon sisters who were like deities and supposedly were like a singular moon each right the moon sisters governed over not only
humans but a race of life-forms known as the seelys the seeleys were basically tasked with teaching and guiding humans often traveling with them but they were specifically born with a curse to never fall in love with a human which is a really weird curse to have with like no context whatsoever also who is cursing them i i have to know this is it the same person who cursed stains of like who is doing this oh sorry what was i saying oh right well it's not a hundred percent confirmed fact yet ther
e is a legend in the game about a sealy who fell in love with a traveler from afar supposedly a human three days after their marriage in the lunar palace a great calamity befell the world and it resulted in the death of two of the moon sisters while one of them remained in the sky either as a corpse or as someone locked away in her palace in her grief there's like four versions of this legend and they differ a little bit anyway in their grief the seelys kind of wasted away and turned into ghosti
es arama specifically says the steelies were a beautiful race and that they traveled with humans in order to teach them these little ghosties that we follow to their stone pedestals are just the ghostly husks that they left behind arama goes on to say that one celie who survived was actually friends with both the scarlet king and ruka davada which would most likely make her out to be the goddess of flowers that is an idea that i want to explore later but probably more so once the desert region c
omes out but more importantly i am now convinced that pylon is just a straight-up sealy not a moon sister not the god of time but a surviving celie i will make a proper video on this as well at some point but we know that paimon a loves to sing and seelies are associated with singing and having a source song and all that other kind of stuff and she's actively traveling and trying to teach a human just like the celies are supposed to and before anyone says that she hasn't taught the traveler anyt
hing i want to point out that she did teach the traveler how to read and speak the common language of to that so i think regardless of what you think about her like as a gameplay teaching experience i think she is actually teaching the traveler things in game like canonically but anyway there's also this one fatoui dude that just straight up calls her a floating sealy and we know that celies are guided to their sealy courts which are also kind of like fairy quartz and mythology and paimon is oft
en called a pixie or a fairy by everyone else so my conclusion is that pymon's just a steely that's basically what i got from all this paimon is just a surviving steely child that fell into the ocean and somehow stayed down there for who knows how long until the traveler fished her out that's my conclusion okay that basically concludes all my big highlights so now it's time for the rapid fire roundup which is basically just a bunch of much shorter topics that i think are still important but prob
ably aren't that confusing to people and therefore don't need much context or explanation like visions because we finally got confirmation that visions manifest with their cases on but that just raises more questions like why is kaya's case so funky and how does amber attach stuff to hers if you know visions are impervious to damage at least according to kitching and sucrose and how do people attach their visions to their outfit are they sticky do they have magic velcro i have so many more quest
ions and no answers which is why it's here i'm just mentioning it visions manifest with their cases it's important i honestly probably should have talked about kusanali a little bit more during the akasha terminal section but i needed some context about the goddess of flowers first so here's a mini theory i guess kusanali probably doesn't look anything like ruka davada even though i kind of think she's a clone just not a clone of ruka davada i don't think that anymore i say this because kusanali
calls herself the first akasha terminal and judging by the relationship between ruka nevada and the goddess of flowers she might actually be based off of the goddess of flowers instead especially if they're going to reference the kusanali jakarta because the kusa sprite and the tree sprite aren't actually directly related in there and ruka nevada would be the tree spray right rukadavada really loved the goddess of flowers so it would make sense to create something to honor her memory and the go
ddess of flowers was kind of more of a water spirit like water kind of poured from her sleeves or like that's kind of how she's described she's described as like the oasis in the desert so to speak right and the thing is in persia one of the most important deities was the water goddess anahita or anahita and we've got kusanali here whose name is najida which is one letter off of anahita so i'm kind of thinking she references the goddess of flowers more than ruka nevada that's my speculation that
's why it's not in the akasha section that said here is something also related to the akasha catherine well okay catherine's not directly related but this idea about catherine is we finally got confirmation that catherine is indeed a robot because kusanali calls her a bionic puppet from schnessnia the part that connects it to the akasha is that apparently kusanali likes to possess catherine on a regular basis to just kind of run around town this isn't really disturbing on its own but when you th
ink about it catherine might be a robot but kusanali says that she can literally possess any creature that is wearing an akasha terminal including humans but kusanali also claims that she has always respected her people's free will and that's why she's never possessed any of them but that does imply that she can just take over anyone's body and force him to do whatever she wants so long as they're wearing an akasha terminal so that's that's a thing let's talk about elazar basically this disease
is pretty rare and it's a condition that causes the skin to harden into something like tough scales and over time it causes numbness in the limbs and eventually it causes total paralysis both dunyazad and kola have this disease junior's odds condition is a bit more severe than coles though because coley was in the care of the fatoui for a long time undergoing some really dreadful human experimentation that left a malicious snake god sealed inside her supposedly and for some reason while within t
he fetus care her condition never really got worse i'm wondering if there's a connection between dettori's experiments of injecting cole with archon residue aka dead god juice and the manifestation of elazar or the management of it i'm i'm not quite sure where to go with that yet but i want to point out that there's something there i just don't know what it is yet it's worth mentioning as a closing note i wanted to touch on tignare's name even though it's not technically part of the lore roundup
you probably noticed that in almost every language it's not pronounced tignari but some variation of tynari or tinari if you're wondering which version is technically correct well the short answer is tignori but with an arabic sound that i cannot make the long answer is it's complicated after a whole lot of digging and a couple of surprise interviews i learned that tignari's name most likely came from the diverse multicultural kingdom of al angelus located in the iberian peninsula as early as 7
00 a.d as you may well imagine the linguistics get a little messy here due to all the close cultural exchanges both for good and for ill but essentially depending on what dialect you are referencing the pronunciation of tignori can vary quite a bit but the same can be said for both dia and candice whose names are more widely pronounced as dahaya and kendake respectively that said i am by no means an expert on pre-modern linguistics so this is quite literally all the credible information that i c
an provide i just think it's important to remember that language is fluid it evolves over time and there can be multiple correct ways to pronounce words and we should be cognizant of that as we move forward and definitely willing to adjust our ways of thinking but that's also just by opinion i'll be calling him tignari solely because of the fact that he takes a lot of inspiration from the botanist altagnari and sometimes i'll call him twiggy because it's cute and it's kind of a pun and that conc
ludes the 3.0 lore roundup we covered a lot of ground and this wasn't even everything that we learned this patch i excluded a lot of information in an effort to keep things a little bit more digestible but never fear we will be covering a good deal of all of the skipped content in later videos so stay tuned for that i just want to say thank you all so much for watching and a very special thanks to the members for supporting this channel and helping these videos get made faster i know there's bee
n a bit of a gap lately but we'll be on a roll again very soon i hope you're all having a blast this patch and that your summons are blessed with focus units take care everybody i'll see you in the next one bye bye [Music]
