- The Aeons in Star Rail are mysterious entities that hold dominion over the Paths in the galaxy, and there are 18 that we currently know of. In this video, I talk briefly about each one, including their beliefs, their followers, and some of their origins.

The Aeons with unplayable paths are all so interesting
Imagine if the Trail Blazer unlocks the Trailblaze Path. We are part of the Astral Express so imagine if the strongest path for us is Trailblaze.
@@arnowisp6244how would the gameplay be though? Will it basicly be a stronger destruction?
@@hello.9958 Versatility? Dupport with good damage.
But haven’t they already because it says in the wiki that the following factions is the nameless and astral express crew?
@@Sea_.urchin as in gameplay style
Some fun facts for a few of the Aeons.
- Nanook -
He has countless Emenators across the Anti-Matter Legion.
On a radio within the Astral Express, it talks about the Anti Matter Legion destroying a whole galaxy recently … yikes.
Adlivun, Nanook’s home world. This world was attacked by Emperor Rupert 1 during the Emperor’s War, which completely marred it. And unfortunately soon after, found itself on the path of the Swarm’s march. Akivili came to this world once and witnessed this. This world was destroyed by either The Propogation, or by Nanook’s birth. (This then brings up an intriguing “what came first, the chicken or the egg” question. Was Tayzzyronth The Propagation responsible for Nanook’s birth, or was it just a coincidence?)
- Lan -
This is more of an interesting observation than a fact. Lan has the body of a horse … do you know who else has a body of a horse? The Trampler. And in its description, it says it has the mobility of a Leviathan … and there is nothing more to say about Lan.
- IX -
The Annihilation Gang tried to assassinate him (whether this was a group of individuals from the Gang, or the whole Gang themselves, idk). This group was never heard from again, interesting fact though, apparently this gang got help from Aha The Elation.
- Qlipoth -
My most favorite fun fact so far, the Amber Era Calendar. You see, Qlipoth is an a quest to build a wall around the WHOLE solar system, or something like that. The IPC came and found the Aeon and started their worship over it, and came up with the Amber Era calendar. The first Amber Era is the presumed date of Qlipoth’s birth. And every Amber Era thereafter is when Qlipoth brings down his hammer on the wall he is creating … each Amber Era is between 70-240 years long. We are currently in AE 2158, the game begins on the last few days of AE 2157.
- Oroboros -
They are a leviathan … nothing new about this info but still … extremely interesting thing to just be told … hope we see some image of him soon or maybe even Oroboros himself.
- Aha -
This thing!!! Omg, extremely Chaotic Neutral, many stories to say about him, but only one I will share.
He snuck his way onto the Astral Express (during Akivili’s time), and ended up blowing up a portion of the train, as well as destroying a whole world in the same turn … so crazy!
- Fuli -
Lightcones are around because of the Garden of Remembrance. A Light Cone is scientific definition, is a point where light gathers, and explodes out. This explosion is the path of light. In the game, the symbol used for Light Cones backs this up, meaning they work the same way in a different nature. Honkai Light Cones are a memory of a certain point, with a certain path tied to them. (I’ll get back to this point in another Fun Fact)
Fuli was first birthed in front of a crowd, during the speech of the IPC’s Founder … where they shared some words with each other, before the Founder left, and was never seen from again.
- Idrila -
The Mirror Holders are busily collecting shards of Mirrors called “Mirror of Transcendence”, these are actually fragments of Idrila’s divine form. And they don’t reflect the real world, but rather what the holder considers beauty, and manifests that into reality. … these are fragments of Idrila … meaning that Idrila herself is completely capable of doing this on a grander scale … chills!
- Tayzzyronth -
We can actually see him, in the Light Cone “On the Fall of an Aeon” … he looks like a nice kid, look at that smile! Oh … that isn’t a smile … (literally though, am I crazy or does this look like a Red Smiley Face Emoji thing?)
- Aeons -
Back to the Light Cones I described … they are a point of memory following a certain path … so this seems to suggest that the 3* Light Cones, are memories of the Aeons themselves. All 21 Light Cones, 3 Light Cones for 1 Aeon. When you take a closer look at them, you will see that this is true. And they all share this same description (along with their own unique description). “A drop of strength condensed from time itself. All the seemingly insignificant moments come together to form the magnificent choir of fate.” … from time itself? I wonder if Terminus The Finality have something to do with these Light Cones as well? Interesting …
So you are telling me that MC got his Fire power presumably at the same time Preservation brought his hammer down which explain the short cutscene during the cocolia fight? Very kino.
@@kitaisuru I think that was symbolism. As the MC gaining the Aeon’s attention was seen by Qlipoth as a momentous event that is equivalent to it bringing down its hammer once. In the Parlor Car radio, it tells us that a new Amber Era has just begun, because the Intelligentsia Guild is recording the end of an Amber Era as well. As far as I know, this remains the same before and after Fire MC moment.
… also … I discovered that I gave some inaccurate info, we are not in AE 2159, but AE 2158 … should probably edit that before others think the wrong thing as well
21 Light Cones huh? I think there's a little but of Tarot symbolism in there somewhere
Besides the visual similarity,if the Capitano is bloodstained knight, then this is a bit similar to the description of Lan.Aeon, who guides the way of Hunt.They wander endlessly between worlds to eradicate sinful beings,with no end to hate and no boundaries to war.
Also, the description of xianzhou alliance,which follows the path of hunt, reads :
"However, all that the fruit of immortality brought upon them were sorrows, poverty, and endless war and death. It wasn't until Lan, the Aeon of the Hunt, returned from the *Abyss* "
Omg !
Qlipoth - Zhongli and now Lan- Il Capitano
I remamber silicons vidio on vv and the hunt bow
MIHOYO KNOWES WHAT THAY ARE DOING ON PURPOSE
Welt is the perfect stand-in for you in HSR.
He’s also the character I’m using my free 5 star from standard on.
Right ? Thats what I thought too.
Lan were so angry that became an Aeon xD
Design wise, Yaoshi is my favourite. I love how they look peaceful yet somehow menacing at the same time
bruh imagine we kill ix by giving him a reason to live 💀
Here's my theory: March 7th is associated with the path of Remembrance.
From the Simulated Universe, the path of Remembrance is associated with ice. And March 7th was also trapped in ice. She also can't remember how she got in the ice also.
In the Myriad Celestia trailer, one of the pathstriders of the remembrance was really putting emphasis on the word “march.”
That's all :/
I think she is the Aeon of beauty, since she disappeared, and she has a thing in her kit called beauty or something
@@lemonjoyce3018 If she gets anime powers like MC with stelaron and preservation path and dan heng with his dragon form it would be the best of plot twists she was an aeon
prolly the same as sampo to Aha, some might know they march and sampo are one of those unrated by the rating gun in the astral express (u can watch a full vid of this anywhere), we might be getting 5 stars from them soon like what happened to dan heng (changed from hunt to destruction) 🧎🏼 future story may tell sampo's identity from nihility to elation (thooo elation may be not coming out soon same as march's remembrance)
🙏🏻idk abt jingyuan tho :// but im half sure that upcoming strider powers are the same as the path in the simulateduniverse wherein elation is for followup atks 😦imagine sampo doing aftertaste dmg (like erudition herta, himeko, jingyuan type) and similarly as remembrance ice path (it will be like welt's imprison maybe)
@edo6662 and it would be an easy way to make an aeon playable
I'm so interested in learning more about Yaoshi. Theoretically they are being benevolent but they have a negative description in both the myriad celestia trailer AND in game (as of now). I'm sure this is bias because we are viewing them through the eyes of the Xianzhou but I wanna learn more about the factions that follow them.
I wonder if Abundance would eventually overlap with the Propagation. Which is one way in which you could consider them evil. Overpopulation is a serious problem, and is usually dealt with by... Hunting
also adding a little bit,so when an Aeon die not the whole concept will disapear with them,only the tip of it
example:red+blue=purple with red and blue are represent lower part of the concept and purple represent the highest point of a concept,so when an Aeon die only the purple disapear while the red and blue are still there
When an aeon dies their path remains and that's because the path is a philosophical concept that they had created, they do control the concept but they don't bind it to them
From the characters so far I noticed that preservation character has a tendency to preserve/protect something, harmony charas are often leaders or at least people who bring others together as a group, the hunts are poeple who believes action speaks louder than words (fighting anything head on is often their solution), eruditions prefer to use logic and think first before charging forward, abundance is the most obvious so far they are healers and their jobs are related to saving lives, while nihility is the most diverse so far (welt, sampo, pela are all distinct from each other) which make sense cuz it represents nothingness so the people in this path do not follow certain characteristics, i forgot destruction characters so far these people does have destructive/sacrificial tendency (like hook wanting to smash things, or clara/arlan sacrificial mindset for others and in the future blade who just straight up wanting to die)
Well, Nihility characters do seem to share a particular trait for hedonism. If the path represents the believe in the nothingness of existence, it stands to reason that followers belief in nothingness and seek to make the most of their lives and prioristize their joys above all else. Pela has her fanfictions, shoujo mangas and music, Sampo is a troublemaker who goes through life on his whims, Welt is an animator, Silver Wolf is an avid gamer who enjoys playing cat and mouse games with Screwllum, and Kafka is well Kafka. They're also very laid back in their own way and it seems like they're the least likely to get riled up (Even Sampo).
I am not surprised if Kiana granted authority of Finality in Honkai Impact making her the primary emanator of the Aeon of Finality/Terminus, this is too considering of the amount of shortcuts of the Earth-tier characters in Honkai Impact to obtain powers from various plot devices, mcguffins and plot armours (especially with how Kiana practically have superhuman genes of Kaslanas, Schariac and Apocalypse in one
Yet interestingly enough, even Herrscher of Finality Kiana requires Lambda Ai Chan and Captain of Hyperion to assist her at breaking the final defences of Kevin's shields, with how Captain of Hyperion are able to travels to other universes in the more obscure Honkai Impact events since 2018 (keep in mind that he has other feats which sometimes goes beyond his own control and triggered subconsciously which took a toll on his memories and require assistance of his consort Rita to help him "remembering", which separately have possibility to be tied with Fuli, as the devs back in the design documentary video of Fallen Rosemary hinting of both of them belonging to entities of "Higher Order", implying the existences of Aeons-like beings in Mihoyo's multiverse alongside other multiverse teasers of Rita and Genshin's Dvalin back in early 2020 in the main story), alongside Lambda Ai Chan's origin is suspiciously similar to both Elysia and March 7th with the motifs of born from Crystalline wombs, with 3 of them, just like Mr.Assassin (the largest fragment consciousness of Captain of Hyperion) are able to break into 4th wall (but Elysia and maybe march 7th can only does it to lesser extent due to Elysia mostly aware in digital systems as she's just a simulated data currently residing inside Herrscher of Origin power currently carried by Mei until she only have traces of lightning powers during APHO series)
The Mihoyo's multiverse have a lot of set up and developing parallels and they're so dedicated that sometimes it looks so much tighter than MCU to the veteran Honkai players which interested in the lore and the 4th wall break romances, I'm not even kidding
well she didnt get full authority until after kevin was defeated hence why they were both batting at the cocoon at kevins end
Im so excited for the other generals of Xianzhou. Hoping the Marshal is Fu Hua considering some mentions its name HUA
i'd like if kiana appeared to be an aeon or even akivili + i want a collaboration between genshin and star rail
Very unlikely but who knows really
Kiana appearing as an Aeon is the last thing anyone should want, whether it be her GGZ/HI self or HSR self, because we can see for a fact that being an aeon sucks immensely from a human perspective or sucks for humans
@@darknessknows1235 we still don’t know what akivili looks like + we didn’t see the mysterious girl yet
@@darknessknows1235 i mean hoyo pulled it off 2 times in theyre games kiana herscherr of the end ggz and herscherr of finality hi3
They look so powerfull
It’s scary to think we will have to face them in the future
You chose an amazing topic! Looking forward for more
So excited to see you making Star Rail content!
Great video! I can’t wait to learn more of this games lore
Great video and topic all together !!
The eons are very interresting and cosmic entities with concept/surreal appearance and thats so cool.
Also im the only one that find Nanook and the cute little security guard weirdly similar ? 👀
And I find that HSR has many similarities or connection with HI3, Heart of Themis and Genshin impact, for the last one, beside the wings its the MC with our traveler
Lan with aspect of Il capitano and Qlipoth with our Zhongli idk probably looking to mich into it.
Anyway who are your favorite Aeons?
NB: Leave Yaoshi alone, they did nothing wrong I love them 😂🤭!!
My favorite aeon is Akivili but Aha and Fuili are within my top three
@@addisynsanders3805 Ahah is so weird I thought they were the mark but then i looked closely and i saw the shadow holding the said mask
@@Sacration Aha is one of favs due to their personality
Qlipoth has a few things in common with Zhongli 🤔
I'm reminded of Trump for the wall.
Exactly
That's why I call Qlipoth Zhongli (Dexule Edition)
Imagine Morax is actually the emanator of Qlipoth
Kind of paradoxical how nihility, the path of believing in nothing, is a strong enough belief to be considered a path 😂 it’s like believing in the god of atheism
Thanks for making HSR lore guide
Propagation and voracity would be cool paths to see playable
Can't shake the feeling that some of the Aeons are heavily inspired by Warhammer (40K) Chaos gods...
Some theorist believes that March is Idrila itself
all the powers of the characters are non-canon. Fu xuans power is from Nous but her power in game is Preservation.
More please 🙏 😊
Does anyone know, is there any correlation between The Finality in HI3 and HSR as of right now?
Lorewise, how are the elements and paths chosen by characters? Is it only a mean for the game to represent their personalities? Or is it like genshin and the characters are chosen based on certain criterias?
(I'm making an OC and looking for some lore ahah)
Mortals are able to walk on a Path when their wills align with those beliefs, so that is based on certain criteria. As for the elements, I'm not sure.
Hello! First time here and I loved the video, but do we have information about the state of all those Aeons? Like which ones are dead and which ones aren't
Note: I know you mention that with some of them but I don't know if the rest are just lost for now or if they were also consumed/killed by another Aeon
Akivili, Ena, Idrila, Long, and Tayzzyronth are confirmed to be either dead or lost. The rest are still active.
@@SiliconOneFour Thank you! 🥰
Im a follower of IX. Cuz whenever i team up in games, we lose.. maybe that where the debuff i give?
Eilo is either a follower of finalaty or hooh
We have more information about paths then visons. Who to get one, why this element for the character, is their a theme for get a element for exemple hydro characters have a sense of justice, this is wierd. Genshin has been out for about 2 1/2 years and we still don't know many things about visions
I have a question, will they be playable in the future?
In my opinion probably not, but anything is possible.
But shouldn't people who're following an Aeons path lose their powers once that Aeon dies? Or are those not linked together? Also could everyone technically become an Aeon?
I suppose they could lose that power, I don't know if that's been confirmed yet. And technically yes, but it's still quite rare.
@@SiliconOneFour daaamn the possibilities!!
Himeko mentions that a Path can persist even after the Aeon has passed. It's why we can still follow the Trailblaze Path. Think of it like a domino effect: the hand that knocked over the first domino doesn't have to be present for all the others to fall.
@@SiliconOneFour imagine the millions of dollars hoyo could make by making elation/beauty/remembrance units 2 or 3 years down the line 🤔
Don't forget The Mc Also Can Go to O
Path of preservation
This video came out around the time the game first came out. I didn't want to put spoilers for the Belobog Quest in it.
@@SiliconOneFour oh alright
@@61kEliteBaconit’s also rather unimportant the mention the trailblazer since it’s rather obvious they will eventually walk all playable paths in the future.
Hello @SiliconOneFour, I really liked this video. I'm a Portuguese-speaking CZcamsr, and I ask for your permission to use this template video to create one in Portuguese for my channel.
Obviously, I'm going to do my own editing, but I'd like your approval. Thanks in advance.
You can make a video inspired from my video in your own style, but please don't just copy and paste my content. As long as it's inspiration and not plagiarism, that's fine.
@@SiliconOneFour Sure. I don't like copies. My idea is to just use the theme the way you structured it, but with my text. I asked permission because I thought it looked perfect in that order.
@@SiliconOneFour And Thanks ^^
I read yaoshi Bio on fandom and it says god of abundance. Does that mean that yaoshi is a he?
No, the Aeons all seem to be referred to as they/them. God can be a gender neutral word, like how Guizhong is also called the God of Dust.
I really hope Capitano under the mask looks like Nanook The Destruction, that design is too cool not be used as a playable character!!!

I've been waiting for this vid
You pronounced Yaoshi wrong.
Yaoshi did nothing wrong
Yes let them alone fr
