    I HAVE BEEN PLAYING RS FOR 18 YRS. WHEN YOU THINK OF TRYING TO EXPLAIN 18 YRS OF RS LORE TO SOME ONE ,YOU WOULD PROBABLY NEED TO WRITE A NOVEL OR MAKE A TRILOGY OR MORE OF FEATURE FILMS. AS A RS MEMBER I LOVED YOUR VIDEO. AS A FILMMAKER, INVESTOR, PRODUCER , AND ACTOR, I WAS HIGHLY IMPRESSED WITH EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR SHORT FILM MAKING SKILLS. I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO MAKE AND EDIT A CREATION LIKE YOURS. I FEEL YOUR SHORT FILM SHOULD BE PLAYED AT THE VIRTUAL RUNEFEST, AND YOU SHOULD GET AN HONORABLE MENTION FOR YOUR WORK, AND HOPEFULLY NEXT YEAR YOU TAKE HOME " BEST OF THE BEST RS VIDEOS" .
    THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK AND LOVE OF THE RS LORE FOR MY FAVORITE GAME.

Being much busier with life, I don't always get to read the lore-contributing books in the recent quests and archaeology, like I used to be able to do.

    Magnificent production. Your narration is excellent as well, and the choice of background visuals AND music was *perfect* for every damn narration! Holy shit hahaha. Absolutely loved it. Overall, among the best RS videos I've ever seen. I'm subscribed and I look forward to voting for you in the Golden Gnome Awards of 2021 ;-) Gonna watch the rest of the series now!
    Side note -- I did notice a couple very minor errors:
    1) You referred to the Mahjarrat's creation, and while everything you said is *technically* correct, it's arguably incorrect by incompletion. "Mahjarrat" indeed means "Children of Mah," but "Mahjarrat" is not the name of the species. The Mahjarrat are one of many tribes of the species Dreams of Mah (the other known tribes are the Mahserrat, the Mahkorat, and the Chelon-Mah).
    2) This is more simple and cut-and-dry, but you referred to the Syrtes Dragonkin as "Necrosyrtes." It was established in Desperate Measures that their creed's true name, and the only name they had at the time referred to in your video, is just "Syrtes," and implied that "Necrosyrtes" is a nickname, and a bit of a mocking or taunting one, that came along later (likely as a result of them giving in to Jas' curse and giving the Dragonkin their violent and cruel reputation). You also referred to each creed with a sub-name, calling the Dactyl "The Scientists" for example and the Syrtes "The Enraged;" I don't think that's official or canonical as a translation or as their roles. I think the Dactyl were indeed Scientists, and it seems the Syrtes were Philosophers, but we know little about the Nodon and especially the Aughra. Where is the sense in labeling the creeds by how they reacted to the Curse, if they existed before the Curse and therefore were not and could not have been defined by it?
    There's also the lore bits that have been released since this video; More information about The Codex, as well as information about Colossi. Can't fault you for that though of course!

      Wow... thank you so much for the massive compliment! Really made me smile to read that, dude. I'm really glad you enjoyed it.
      Also, I appreciate the feedback on the script. I see your points and agree with them. The truth is, I'm not actually as big a lorehound as most of the lorehound community, but I love the game and I personally want to understand the story more, that's why I'm doing this. I'll pass this feedback onto the writers and proofreaders of the script. Maybe you'd like to join the proofreading team for future scripts? You know your stuff! Thanks again, buddy.

    Are the events of Osrs going to be mentioned in these, or do they exist on a separate timeline/reality?
    In osrs, the dragonkin also created Zulrah, the Alchemical Hydra, Vorkath, and Galvek, maybe more. I haven't gotten that deep into the lore.
    There are also some parallels between both versions of the game.
    In RS3, we got Anachronia, The Land out of Time, quite literally because Kerapac used The Needle pull it from the past.
    Very massive, and full of dinosaurs and aggressive plants. You could throw a stone in any direction and you're likely to hit some sealed off dragonkin ruins.
    Now go over to OSRS, and it's simply known as Fossil Island.
    It's a great deal smaller, and it's covered in, well, fossils. As well as mushrooms and aggressive ancient zygomites, unlike the friendly ones in anachronia.
    There are fewer dragonkin ruins, and both islands don't exactly line up when compared.
    Ironically, RS3 is screwing around in the past, bopping the dinos and plants millions of years back in a time bubble, and it's OSRS that's living in the present, digging up the fossils of said flora and fauna, scarily enough, they're probably the same fossils of the creatures you've slain millions of years ago! * *theremin music instesnifies* *
    The dinos aren't dead because of meteors or ice ages, WE KILLED THEM ALL!
    The islands don't match up because of millions of years of continental drifting!
    Maybe I'm waaay off base, but it still gives me hope that there could be crossover events between both versions of the game.
    Imagine this: You log in to osrs, and you bury a time capsule to send a message to your future-self/descendent/extra-anachronial-self in rs3. Then through some magical hooberyjoobery, you send a message back to your past self.
    This could also be used to bridge some of the lore gaps/create paradoxes, i.e: Monkey Madness II doesn't happen in RS3 because our Glough was somehow informed of his failed genocide attempt in OSRS, and must then change his plans. You, the player, know beyond the shadow of a doubt what an insane monster Glough is, but who's gonna believe you? How can you prove Glough is as evil as you know he is?
    We've already had a taste of parallel timelines with Dimension of Disaster, in which you experience a world where YOU don't exist.
    LET'S EXPAND THAT USING OSRS AS A LORE CATALYST!
    Subverting variables you couldn't possibly know about UNLESS you somehow were able to exist in another timeline's past!
    GIVE US A REASON TO PLAY BOTH RS3 AND OSRS!

      Woah. I wasn't ready for this but I loved every second of it. I've thought a lot about the lore parallels between both games too. I play both games (comped on RS3, quest Cape on OSRS), though mostly RS3 these days. It'd be great to know the answers to some of your questions here. Definitely noticed the Stone of Jas, Dragonkin, Fossil Island, etc. and I sometimes wonder where it stops and the other game begins. Maybe you're onto something with them being parallel universes of some sort. 🤓 Thanks for the comment.

    Its anima mundi, not anima monda(y), stone of Jas was not used as storage for power and knowledge (thats what the Codex is used for, I know Raksha wasnt released back then, but dont give stone wrong description), but as source of power needed after the loss of Mah, narration is a bit chaotic jumping from subject to subject instead of giving short common intro (like describing shortly creation of Zaros, Seren and Mahjarrat) otherwise it was quite good

    • @TheBookOfRS
      @TheBookOfRS  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for the constructive criticism, man. When did I say Anima Monda(y)? I said Anima Mundi, I'm sure. Chaotic is this whole project... The lore is chaotic haha. We tried our best to organise it as effectively as possible. I think my description of the Stone of Jas wasn't inaccurate here.

      @@TheBookOfRS you pronounce it as m(ou)(soft n)d(ei) while it should be m(hard u, similar to english "moon")(hard n)d(hard i, not english "eye" but i like in "in"). So in short you said something like mon-dei instead of moon-di.Try to listen to google translate "stupor mundi" in latin to notice the difference, you have right to your own pronunciation, but I got confused first time you said it. I didn't mean to shame you or anything. Lore is chaotic yes, I just wanted to point out it jumped from Mah to Zaros to Seren without really saying what connected them, It should say how and maybe why Mah created them, quick description of them both and their powers (their auras worked on each other, which weren't even mentioned), then how Zaros left and finally Mahjarrat, their relation with Mah and Seren (they didn't know they were channelling energy bach to Mah). I already described difference between Catalyst and the Codex, but I can say it again, Jas created Stone from her own egg (sacrificing her reincarnation in future revisions) as medium to fill power gap created after losing Mah, It acted as power source slowly burning whatever power Jas infused it with. Stone was used as tool in creation of worlds and and other lesser tools. Codex (as we have recently learnt) was used as storage for knowledge and power (this is how you described the Catalyst)
