The Complete Story of Swarm Disaster (Honkai: Star Rail Lore)

- Herta's new addition to the Simulated Universe- Swarm Disaster presents its story in a very fragmented manner although from many different perspectives. From Aeons like Aha The Elation, to kings, soldiers and bounty hunters that fought in The Propogation Tayzzyronth's Swarm Disaster. Here's my attempt at summarizing the story of Swarm Disaster which involved the Aeon Tayzzyronth (The Propogation), Aeon Ena (The Order) and Aeon Oroboros (The Voracity), HooH (The Equilibrium), Terminus (The Finality), Qlipoth (The Preservation). I hope you enjoy the video :D

I forgot to add that Nanook The Destruction ascended to Aeonhood because it was The Swarm that destroyed his planet.
Had the Swarm Disaster not happened, Nanook would not exist.
does that mean Nanook mistook the bugs and humans? since now he wants to destroy humans, I'm a bit confused.
@@brainrot7956 Nah Nanook wants to destroy everything bug, human and everything else
Then How did Abundance Appear?
ohh i see, thank you!@@pouiverfaim3073
@@brainrot7956 he wishes the destroy the entire universe, including himself. Hence the Destruction.
I loved the part that when even in a Simulated Universe... Aha knows that it's simulated.. damn, he even called us Fake Avikili
Same aura as the "When i go back in time as a frog to the garden of eve and god finds me"
That part terrorized me. Aha knows...

I feel like it might be a metajoke of sorts.
Aha is the Aeon of Elation. They are fundamentally tied to the concept of Elation; joy, laughter, fun.
in a meta sense, Star Rail itself follows the Path of Elation, being a video game designed for the player to have fun.
Aha knows the Simulated Universe isn't real, because the real Aha knows _the universe as a whole isn't real_
@@EeveeMaster547 I also find it interesting that the MC can also break the 4th wall. We are given the "And whose POV is this?" prompt at the end of 2.1. It appears MC knows that they're in a game, like how Aha knows he's simulated.
I think MC will one day become an Emanator of Elation, not just a pathstrider. In fact, I think elation fits their actions more than trailblaze.
Its actually logical for Preservation to interfere with Propagation destroying things. Its also logical for Preservation and Order to work together since both paths arent in conflict but could help each other.
Indeed, you can even say that Aeons can indirectly act differently than their path dictates as long as it is still for the greater purpose of the path. Propagation started eating and destroying everything even though that was mainly the role of Voracity. Preservation literally killed another Aeon, for the sake of preservation. So who knows maybe there are some cheat codes that allow Aeons to still have a free will without really outright rejecting the rules of their path. Nanook may have become the Aeon of Destruction, but perhaps even that action has a different meaning. Who knows maybe if either Abundance, Hunt or maybe both of them die Equilibrium will have to balance the scales to get rid of Destruction in some way.
Tbh. The lore in swarm disaster is pretty epic. Qlipoth's hammer was easily the most OP thing in that whole battle.
Well bro is the oldest Aeon.
@@Doflaminguardwasn’t that just a lie made up by the IPC tho, yes Qlipoth is one of the oldest but not THE oldest
@@rederper8404 Most likely, makes sense
@@rederper8404 It is kinda hard to figure it out ngl but I feel like the main candidates for aeon which might actually be the oldest would be in between Terminus, HooH and Mythus.

Basically Australia vs Emu war
I absolutely love the designs of the Aeons
Same dude. HSR design team truly went all out and give us a super high entity/divine beings which actually looks *interesting* and not just husbando this waifu that. Would love some game recommendations that have similar divine beings concept like aeons honestly!
@@dontshitontravelermains5498Dude have you seen Oroboros? Still made them a Waifunfor Monster girl freaks. 😂
@@dontshitontravelermains5498 I know I fall in love easily with creative designs of gigantic creatures OR thematic entities. Monster Hunter World was one of the games with really well-designed creatures and I fell in love with that game. Patapon also had Aztec/Mayan-inspired artistic choices for their bosses. But when Star Rail came out, the splash arts were just amazing. The dynamic poses, the colors, the intricate details, OH! and that was BEFORE I saw the Aeons. My favorite one was Fuli, then they showed Nous and I loved that too. Which one is your favorite?
@@silverhawkscape2677 yeah that was one of the disappointments personally. I would have loved if they stuck with the actual concept of Oroboros which was a gluttonous serpent eating itself (representing eternity and greed) but the current one is... fine, I guess.
@@rh_nt All of aeons are interesting and amazing to me honestly but my top 5 are definitely filled with: Nanook, Qlipoth, IX, Fuli and Yaoshi! I also can’t wait for Herta & her friends to explore more on other aeons like Mythus or Long! (Long live, Simulated Universe)
Aha really helped Xipe absorb Ena just for funsies.
Aha is menace for the whole society of galaxies 💀💀
So the Aeons that we have to watch out for is not Nanook who most people presume as the end game boss of star rail but rather Terminus and Ho oh.
I wonder where Lugia is, I would love to walk on their path
also Aha in my opinion that aeon is too dangerous to live it alive
@@suffering9481Who is Lugia?
@@TheKing0912 it's the Pokemon Lugia lol he was joking about Ho Oh which was a legendary bird in Pokemon alongside Lugia

Okay cool little note I want to add on here: 8:38 you say that Tayzzy's death was predetermined at their birth, but how it's worded in the text turns it the other way around. Terminus's whisper says that Tayzzy's birth was predetermined at it's death ("their death predetermined their birth" is how it's written in Sand King 1) which is backwards until you consider that to Terminus, Tayzzy's death came first, their birth second. Just a neat little detail that I noticed.
Also, it is heavily, *heavily* implied that Akivili's death has more to do with Fuli and IX than it does HooH. It's also implied that Ena's disappearance was a mutual agreement between Ena and Xipe that one was to be absorbed into the other, although Ena still has full cognitive autonomy within Xipe. Either way, HooH's involvement in all of this is undeniably huge. It almost feels like this whole debacle was a small moment in a larger chess game between Terminus and HooH.
This is a very nice interpretation, though. I will 100% be using this as reference for the future in order to stay sane as I do my own investigations into this beast.
It's very likely Ena is one of the main contributors to Xipe's eerie harmony of voices, particularly in just how UNSETTLINGLY SATISFYING it sounds to hear.
HooH = Hoyoverse just balancing if the scales tend to shift from one to another. Got it. Also Preservation path is the one save a lot of worlds and players for building shield is both in game (Swarm disaster) and Lore accurate.
Qlipoth being the most gigachad aeon out of 18 of them as per usual!
Its cool that even HooH’s name is perfectly balanced palindrome
@@dontshitontravelermains5498Preserving civilizations by smacking basically anything that threatens their very existence, yes trully the manifestation of the word PRESERVATION 🤣🤣
@@idontspeakjapanese6289 the best defense is offense
Now imagine if Lepismat was never conquered, everything would be fine and swarm disaster would have never happened
but we wouldnt have 4.5k primogems, so im glad that it happened
If the Swarm Disaster never happened, there's also the possibility that Nanook the Destruction would never be born since Nanook rose to aeonhood after their planet was destroyed by the remains of the Swarm.
Or if Long is still alive and didn’t just.. vanished, part of the main reason why Tazzyronth is even become an aeon on his own is due to the fact that dude become pretty much purposeless & lonely after the disappearance (or death) of Long and only have one thing in his mind… “PROPAGATE”.
Everything happens because if nothing happened then nothing exists!
@@rhizu8450meanwhile some of use suffering rn now
the woman did not lose her child to the swarm, it appears that she literally gave birth to the bug, and an entire hospital was filled with bugs born from normal people.
and there was no war between oroborus and the swarm, oroborus simply had a lot of food now, and the swarm only thinks about reproduction, there will be no concept of war to them.
So you're implying that a bug fukked her???
Yes. I thought the last line 3:09 would convey this message implicitly. I didn't want to state something this dark explicitly.
that's...pretty dark though
@@yun-z The Swarm is Literally their farmer.
i find the thing about Terminus so damn interesting like how they move backwards in time. Wonder if the trailblazer will manage to meet them at some point
(damn this is the first time there's a full ass argument in my reply section)
Or the trailblaze already has met them
I think Kafka can talk to terminus or hear it's whisper due to her ability to determine a destiny
It means that terminus ascended at the end of time
@@exile_kzk You forgot about Elio, he is the one who tells Kafka about his "script" that knows the end and wishes to change it.
@@exile_kzk wasn't elio the emanator of Terminus?
HooH and Terminus both seem like they're a step above even regular Aeons
They're literally one of the ones who has a connection to the imaginary space like herrschers, even terminus has a title of 'Finality' which is the strongest in Hi3Rd scaling (albeit far weaker than ggz scaling)
@@Sentigrade All the aeons and emanators are capable of travelling and accessing the imaginary space and energy. Reason why HooH and Terminus are scary is because unlike the other aeons they actively affect the flow of events in the story. Finality decides the end and HooH as seen in the ascensions is actively affecting the reality around you
@@adriantepes4355 herrschers could literally do all that, i would send all scans i have but i cant since youtube deletes any comments with off site links.
herrschers has conenction to imaginary space, higher dimensional manip, quantum manip, law manip, sub atomic manip, limited, space manip, space manip
HDM-found on ch somewhere between 26-27
QM and SAM-from bronya's manga
LM-is from a scan i have but i cant send it
LSM-is also from bronya's manga
SM-HoV, Finality and origin.
@@Sentigrade Herrschers can do all that on a smaller scale. They're having authority over concepts but they are not one with the concepts itself. Viz. Kiana's finality has shown no feat above planetary levels while Nanook embodies the whole idea of entropy death. His philosophy is "creation is useless and hence all of existence must be gone". There's also HooH who controls literally everything that happens. It's highly likely that he also controls the Herrschers since those beings are also living entities. Anything that a Herrscher does may or may not affect the universe and infact they mostly affect their own world or a couple other worlds at most. Anything that an aeon does can and will affect the universe itself
@@adriantepes4355 imagine being so bad at powerscaling that everything you said was garbage. Yes, that's all your argument, you want an actual powerscaling right? Then I'll give you one
The main universe stated by bronya was transfinite on the lowest cardinal hence ℵ0, ℵ0 is the lowest infinite cardinal and falls under H1B or High hyper.
Above the main universe is the imaginary space, a space which transcend the main universe. Logically speaking, ℵ0 is below ℵ1 hence has an R>F over the main universe which is L1A or low outerversal
Transcending spatial dimensions with infinite axis Gives BDE and is on the same level of standard kardeshev 7 and tegmark type IV, this is the baseline for R>F over dimensionality which Kiana had and was stated in-game at honkai, this falls at ℵ2 which is outerversal
The 11D argument is weak since it only stated that it included 11D not capped at 11D, this only applies to bubble universes.
Aeons are stated to be capable of resting or destroying the universe which is ℵ0, and that's it, having a connection to the imaginary space gives no tier, this just puts aeons at high hyperversal or H1B.
Weaker Herrschers on the other hand, could create weapons and their own imaginary space, control their concepts and there wasn't any statements they control lesser concepts since finality is plantonic. This just puts herrschers at ℵ1 which L1A or low outerversal.
We could further extrapolate this via Kiana's feat of stopping Otto from gaining the authority which was absolutely infinite, absolute infinity is not to be confused with countable and uncountable infinity.
Countable infinity is ℵ0 and uncountable infinity is ℵ1, absolute infinity is above transfinite numbers and cardinals, a repeated infinite set of ℵ0 will result in ℵὦ and falls in outerverse+ or 1A+, above this is the inaccessible cardinals which is H1A and absolute infinity is completely above his by standard and is at least 1-inaccessible which is boundless or tier 0, this is further proven via absolute infinity's apophasis where it's above human understanding and is ineffable even against logic.
This would result in..
Aeons H1B
herrschers L1A-0
All your arguments are false under powerscaling, get your facts and research right.
not like you could, you're not even a powerscaler, you're just a guy who debates on things they DO NOT understand.
Planetary scaling is pointless when you have transfinite numbers and Large cardinals, considering they are greater than dimensionality itself.
4:10 a friend of mine pointed out this crazy theory: maybe March is a crystallized person from that time?
Holy shit. Fuli is the aeon that freezes things in time so he can preserve their memories. Guess what March 7th's hobby is??? Taking pictures to preserve memories.
Your friend is 100% correct.
It’s pretty obvious that March has very big relation with fuli. From the ice she was trapped in to how she acts, interested to see how her story goes
@@opatzo9165the biggest hints are the "six phased ice", because this ice is not even ice at all its basically crsytal and the fact the she has no "memory" of her past self
@@idontspeakjapanese6289 Also her story quest. The Remembrance seems to be intentionally making March not able to remember
@@theglobalwarming6081 another path or a faction may be related to March and that is the mirror holders of Beauty, the biggest evidence of her connection to this faction is her mirror that doesn't show other reflections aside from herself which is exactly what the mirror holders are described as in the databank
this summary was like a movie ngl
Also, there's a knock-on event that eventually led to the birth of Nanook: Their home world of Adlivun was devastated by Rupert I'd Mechanical Empire and The Swarm, eventually leading to their Birth and the destruction of Adlivun as Akivilli arrived at the world.
(I am just going to note my observations and my understanding, correct me if I am wrong. I use the CN dialogue of the game so some things might be wrong.)
2:57
Something interesting to note: the woman did not "lose" her child to the swarm, but rather, it is HEAVILY implied her child was actually an insect. Ingame texts mention how the rate of childbirths increased dramatically, and that these "newborns" would fly away.
Which means The Propagation can affect not just insects, but any organism that is capable of reproduction.
4:00
As the disclaimer at the beginning mentioned, some information obtained from the Simulated Universe should be taken with a grain of salt. Herta expresses doubt at the idea that Fuli was born during the Swarm Disaster due to it "being too logical". But of course, we don't really know the truth.
(Just a reminder to everyone)
4:37
This is somewhat misleading. It is mentioned ingame that Ouroboros actually disappeared in the midst of this for unknown reasons. Additionally, Aha is CONFIRMED to be present. According to Aha, they wanted to "help Ena". Aha also invited Akivili to join in (Akivili joined due to Tayzzyronth and the Swarm interrupting the Trailblaze).
Ena on the other hand is mentioned to have disappeared too. Ena and the Order was absorbed into Xipe and the Harmony. Aha eventually found Xipe, and invited them to join their fight against Tayzzyronth, to which Xipe agreed.
8:04
If I remember correctly, Nanook was born due to the Swarm. Although Tayzzyronth died, the Propogation (the Path) and the Swarm still exist. The Swarm infested a certain planet which Nanook was from. I am not sure if Nanook has any relation with Yaoshi (correct me if I am wrong).
About the part with woman- I thought the last line 3:09 would convey this message implicitly. I didn't want to state something this dark explicitly.
@@CatWithBlueHatoh whoops I completely got the time wrong, but I can understand, considering what happened to the woman was pretty dark and horrifying to think about.
Nanook doesn't appear to have any relation with Yaoshi, and yes, The Swarm infested Adlivun, which Akivili happened upon as it was fighting the Swarm. Adlivun was most likely destroyed as Nanook Ascended to Aeonhood
Hehehe doujin matetials🤣🤣🤣
@@aryapratama5648 NAHH BRO PLS DONT 💀
Already love the aeon lores since the initial release of this game and now I truly can’t wait for them to give something like Swarm Disaster again but this time, it is about other aeon instead!

You are truly the Aeon of Helpfulness 😭 Thanks for this!!
Ouruboros and Tazzyronth seemed to respresent circle of Life like how Lan and Yaoshi is.
finally i can understand the whole story of the swarm disaster thx for the wonderful video CWBH 😎
Aha is literally aeon of menace 🤣
A menace to galactic society
No, universal society
But all for a good laugh, you know?
Akivilli: Bro you literally blew up a planet
Aha: It'S jUsT a PranK BrO
At least Aha tried to ask for help in this case. He might have enjoyed the chaos but I think he doesn't like how his entertainment is being taken away from a bunch of insects.
the aeon of trolling
absolutely love the aeons. they are an embodiment of certain aspect of being, no wonder preservation is strong AF. a being is to preserve, gave birth the preserve the gene, eat to preserve the life, teach other people to preserve the knowledge etc.
I'm really thankful for lore videos like these. They truly help me with my reading comprehension skill issue 🥺
The way swarm eventually took over civilizations and that telling insects apart from non-insects became harder lowkey reminds me of Chimera ands fro HxH
As always, Thank You for the video !! I'm looking forwards for more HSR's lore related video 😁
love your videos, please keep up the good work!!! i hope to see more HSR lore videos covering all the niche topics in the future :3
AS AN AEON LOVER I AM EATING AND CONSUMING ALL THIS LORE LIKE MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT HOLY HELL THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS COMPILATION I AM GOING TO SOB INTO A PUDDLE RN PLS AND THANKS
you are everywhere. i feel like there's only 5 people in this entire fandom that's actually interested in the aeon's lore
@@antthebeeI should feel a bit ashamed but I am not, I love the Aeons and will comment in every good Aeon lore video I see lol.
@@KuroNoUsagi Real
I wonder if Stellaron Hunters decision were influenced by HooH. It could be possible as a way to balance everything.
Doubt it. I think Equilibrium is only applied after the disaster is struck. Since Stellaron Hunters are known as Destiny slaves, I think they were more influenced by Terminus instead.
@@mystrknwital9146 honestly, Elio’s foresight is more like prediction rather than a predetermined future, he wouldn’t need to make an entire script to get what he wants if the future is predetermined by Terminus. I’m more leaning on the theory that Elio got his foresight from Nous instead because his calculation is almost identical to the foresight future calculation on the Xianzhou and Fu Xuan’s third eye, all of which was gifted by Nous. Also you can break out of Elio script in Kafka’s quest proving that his foresight can be wrong.
Absolutely love order and voracity’s design, can’t wait to see what the other aeons look like
Thanks so much for doing this! Just completely finished Swarm Disaster finally, and was looking for a more concise explanation of the lore. Really appreciate you putting this together!
Seriously hoping Hoyo does more stuff like Swarm Disaster. It was amazing, and i loved every bit of it. Would be cool if we got similar Simulated Universe stuff on Harmony's ascent and take over of Order. Or maybe Long's eventual death. Maybe even a SU on Beauty's dissapearance?
So many cool little lore moments could be expanded on, like they did with the Swarm Disaster. And i hope to see more lore blurbs from you!
Subscribed
so even the Aeons can control each other. the biggest string holder in this case is HooH. so i wonder if they'll eliminate / add something to ensure the trailblaze has an equal
Pretty sure HooH and Termius are a special type of Aeons compared to the rest
@@idontspeakjapanese6289 there is no 'special' type or so to speak. Every aeon's inherent strength and/or influence upon the universe is predetermined by their corresponding paths. For example aeon's like Idrila and Long aren't too powerful because their path only consists of small insignificant things (in the scale of aeons) like "finding beauty in everything" and "immortality", and eventually they dissapeared due to unknown causes. However, aeons like HooH literally exist to balance everything, and in order to do that he possesses the ability to literally influence other aeons in the name of "balancing the scales"
I love this game so much
Wow, and I usually skip the texts in simulated universe... this was awesome, amazing editing and story telling! Keep it up :))
Thank you! I enjoy watching your vids 👍
i have this mental image of hooh as a massive jumbled mess of arms in a solitary corner of the universe, tipping millions of scales, both great and small.
the mass of arms? its just this universe's variant of joachim, who desperately tried to keep everything from becoming a mess SO much, that his physical body just evolved to suit this monumental task.
Yes!! Was waiting for this thanks cat
Thanks for the enlightenment
i was so confused in there
"I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure." *-Ellen Ripley,* *'ALIENS'.*
I believe that summarizes the audience's opinion on hostile space insects.
Reading the disclaimers on the existence of Mythus kinda spooked me. Kinda gives some leeway for Hyv to screw with us on whether some events on Star Rail history were real or not.
pretty good content for HSR lore
the lore really have similarities on some characters lore (Age of Chaos) on GGZ or would I say "Hoyoverse Lore" even though no one recognized GGZ is just happen I recognize it when watching this pretty good tbh, even finality really scary when knowing that this aeon know the end of universe really make me theorize it might be renmant of Zeus it can also move backward in time so no wonder if is really zeus or might be kiana in honkai impact. well Im not here to fight im just interested in deep lore and can talk to me about it anyway nice video I like it
isn't Zeus the one Thanatos killed which made the imaginary tree?
This would literally mean no amount of infinities stacking would beat Terminus with this theory, not even delta, it would literally require an outer god.
since Dimensionality in ggz works like dimensionality irl, this would mean any lower dimensional creatures wouldn't be able to damage terminus with this theory
That was amazing!!!! Thanks a lot i wanted to know the lore behind the swarm but im too impatient lol
Thanks for the great video. I really love all the lore and worldbuilding the HSR team have built.

@@ifakeifake7612 I don't know if they have the same people writing for all of their games, usually every franchise from the same studio have its own lead for lore and worldbuilding to keep it consistent.
@@r1ckNzi Think there ia main writing team because all games are connected.
Now that you mention it. Could it be that The Aeon that Elio amd The Stellaron Hunters worship is Terminus
Throughout the quest, we constantly see what title does Elio hold when mentioning him. "Destiny's Slave"
And Terminus defy the flow of time which mean they already witnessed the future. And Elio has this 'script' for every Stellaron Hunters to follow.
According to Kafka during Xianzhou quest, it revealed that by following the script, we can achieve the best outcome for the future
Very likely Kafka can hear terminus whisper
thank you for this! (as someone who can't finish world 3 and above)
HooH and Terminus are interesting. these two names are new to me.
Would be nice to have that kind of video for Gold and Gears
Wow, that was fast :D
This is so fascinating !
If I have to follow an Aeon. I would definitely follow Ena or Fuli. Which one will last, I will follow both of them. The Aeon and their followers are mysterious, there's no place to come or stay. Yet everyone seems to be fine with both. I also love their abstract not-so-abstract design.

Came back to Genshin after a 1.5 yr necessary break, binge watching your lore videos as reference to satiate the huge void of lore craving I have had over the period of the break 😅😅😅
And this ladies in gentlemen, is why Preservation path in Swarm is so good. It's canonically meant to be good. (tooootally not me just being biased towards preservation aka Qlipoth just cause this path's units help me cheese the most)
the first track gives me nostalgia for some reason whenever i went to the underworld
Can you cover narcissenkruez world quest lore? Much appreciated. 😊
Love that you have these lore videos but man some voice over on these would change the game, hell I'd even take the standard text to speech voice 😅
The lore is so damn good
Aeon of finality... just remind me to Herrscher of Finality buat Aeon is much more dangerous because the power scale is different
honkai impact and honkai star rail has a linked special lore and i love it😝
Maybe they have some connection because Cocoon of finality exist in every bubble universe in imagenary tree
Basically aoens are like supreme deity/outer god
Aeons are more dangerous because they have a greater range within a universe.
generally herrschers by standard are stronger since the feats they have completely outscale aeons, this is only utilizing HI3rd herrschers and not ggz herrschers, ggz herrschers would dogwalk all Aeons(including terminus)
Kinda impossible tbh since it's confirmed the herrschers aren't even showing their full power yet(and honkai can evolve anytime as we had seen from Herrscher of Rebirth).and remember that the only true Herrscher is the Finality (Kiana is still learning her power on the moon)
Hi3 herrschers also can resurrected back(and the cores can choose their new host that's compatible with their respective powers)
Even ggz herrschers are on whole another level than their hi3 counterparts
The butterfly effect goes crazy in this story. Wonder if that's intended thematically lol
I thought of o bit different role for Ouroboros the Voracity from what i understood in swarm disaster in SU.
I think that ouroboros is the great future disaster, old enemy of qlipoth in dusk wars and now lives but on the other side of the barrier. The greatest sin of tayzzironth was breaking this barrier.
That would explain Herta surprise to see them in fuli meeting, their war and terror of tayzzironth for ouroboros, fuli's creation from prayers of devoured worlds to be remembered. (Like in the entry - only fuli remember them). And we don't get a new aeon from every destroyed world.
Qlipoth's wish to help contrary to his indifference for nanook and emperor Rupert and his possible agreement with Ena to stop the Voracity and as a consequence - weakness of the order exploited by newly ascended aeon of harmony.
PS: please correct me, if I'm wrong.
thank you!
The Swarm gamemode by itself was so mentally exhausting, even if fun and satisfying to do, that I gave up trying to keep up with the story after like my 20th runs... So here I am for a proper recap
That part about Fuli makes me think it could point to what March is
Aha is such a menace, i wonder who's gonna put down this troll of an Aeon.
doesnt that mean Elio follow the finallity path? as they know what happend in the future?
That makes it more interesting.
It's more likely Elio is trying to go AGAINST the Finality path even though they have Finality's blessing, kinda like how Mourning Actors don't like Aha of Elation even though they have his blessing.
@@noahi.1381 ohh, like Luocha also?
@@N4b.f.rnow that y'mentioned it, it's funny that some follower/path-rider/emanator of the path is actually against that path too(Luocha/Otto as example for now).
Ena's design is top tier
Very intuitive, wonder how long it took you to make this😅
More than 10 days 🥲
Unless I'm wrong we haven't seen any pictures of terminus the finality, so disregarding any lore implications, how funny would it be if terminus is the first playable aeon and it's Kiana. Since welt traveled to the HSR universe through a divine key, it's highly likely Kiana could visit him at will, so it would be hilarious if it's revealed that Kiana got bored on the moon so she went to the HSR universe and accidentally became an aeon. I find it unlikely that Kiana would just sit around while welt and Carole are stuck in another universe, so maybe she's looking for them (btw where the hell is Carole?). Or maybe she's looking for answers about imaginary (Honkai) energy, the possibilities are endless, it's too boring if kiana, just waits on the moon doing nothing until APHO.
Terminus seems to be able to control time, just like the Herrscher of finality (Kiana) and earth's endless reincarnations, so what if the main cast dies but Kiana pops up and turns back time? OH! What if Elio is secretly Kiana? I swear I'm not crazy, I just miss Kiana
I want playable Kiana in star rail NOW
Please no. I don't want any aeon waifu or husbodo. The reason i like aeons because they actually looks like cosmic gods.
The Finality is "shapeless," formless and without a body. Right now they're just more of a floating consciousness than a proper being.
Also as far as we know, Terminus can't *control* time, they just move backwards in it for some reason. That's just kind of their nature.
@@ifakeifake7612 I get your point but Kiana literally is the cosmic god of HI3, her evil version is the size of a galaxy, holding earth in her palm, so aeon Kiana could very well be a cosmic god in design. But anyways I'm just hoping, the Kiana arc in HI3 just ended with so many loose threads
@@WhaleMilk The finality is indeed formless but you could consider Kiana its form as it recognised Kiana's ideals and entrusted her with its power, so Kiana's will is essentially the will of Honkai (as opposed to all previous eras where the will of Honkai controlled all herrschers, because Elysia freed the future herrschers). That's the short version, there's a lot of lore here but it's too much.
Since terminus moves backwards in time it's just natural to assume they can control time, so that's why I made the assumption. It's also strikingly similar to the Herrscher of finality setting humanity back 50,000 years every time it awakens. The Herrscher of finality's authority is time even though they're the "Herrscher of the end", so terminus could very well have control over time even though it also seems to represent fate, inevitability and the end, just like the Herrscher of finality. See where I'm going with this?
Besides, we have no information about terminus anywhere, except for one loading screen description mentioning the omen vanguards as believers of terminus, and the mentions that terminus foresaw or maybe even orchestrated the birth and death of tayzzyronth. We don't know whether it controls time or not, but it most likely does, so don't rule things out just yet. Anything that hasn't been confirmed or denied is a possibility.
Terminus might be important in the story later, since it seems to know the fate of every being including the aeons, so maybe it will be a big reveal. Or maybe they never reveal terminus at all. who knows. But I think terminus would be a good candidate for a kiana appearance, since HI3 just left so many loose threads in part 1. There's still so many questions about imaginary energy, so don't you think it could be possible that terminus is kiana traveling through time and the imaginary tree to find answers about the Honkai and the universe itself? At least let me dream
@@GrenadeLauncher-vk3wd ik about kiana. I am saying cosmic gods should look like "cosmic gods" not anime characters.
Thank you
Thanks man
HSR has some awesome lore
At first I thought this whole thing was basically *the Aeon War,* but then I realize it's more like Star Rail *Khaenri'ah*
for the Aeons this is literally like calling your neighbor to help get rid of a bug's nest in your backyard
Qlipoth's hammer is basically the insect swatter of the universe, Goddamm so if it's a bonk weapon then Qlipoth is the mortal enemy of every dude who fails NNN
0:40 why is this so hard to understand???
Finally, the video about Swarm disaster lore so I don't read it in-game text
Gotta admit the design for Ena The Order is sick.
WoW aeon of equilibrium is a b*tch… i would love to see the aeon of trailblaze and beauty but i dont want to lose another aeon present… except for the propagation, this bugs are scary as hell! I wish for more stories about aeons like this ❤
good content 👍
Thanks for this. I'm too focused on the rewards and too stressed out with the challenges to realize there's a story. I hope we get playstyle in the game so that we get new paths. Normal attack meta is fun
Babe wake up new HSR lore just dropped
Honestly thought the mouse in the middle at the end was mine xD
How does ascending to aeonhood work?
Could IX(Nihility) and Aha(Elation) be capable of change the fate Terminus have seen? Their concepts are the most unpredictable among eons, but they still are at mercy of the time (... Right?). Or could it be that HooH (equilibrium) and it's concept of balance could be connected in one way or another to Terminus, in a way that Aha and IX are being kept in check?
Thanks
Is it possible that elio is an emanator of HooH or Enigmata? It seems plausible to me that this dude see's the future and is trying to get the best outcome of the universe? What do you guys think?
Nah Herta doesnt need Screwllum,or ruan mei,or Stephen,She need Cateithbluehat
Man, these reminds me of Lord of the Mysteries
Tayzzyronth, a Sequence 0 from the Propagation Pathway
@@niefn6931 yeah, a corrupted pathway
@@ehasanulhoque2943 Goddamn I did not expect a LoTM readers here.
PRAISE THE FOOL!
interesting i am not hsr player but i do know about aeons and i find them really interesting like lovecraftian creatures who can be good or bad gods i found aeon of finality intresting as it technically knows everythng that is happening and moves from future to past..aeon aha is just their for entertainment when propagation got killed..idk but how can xipe aeon absorb aeon of order?? doesn't that effect like the order of universe if she does that?? can somebody tell why did xipe absorbed order??
also i like their designs they are cool and if you compare them to genshin's archons and herscherrs in honkai they are more creepy as even their entrance is like summoning an ancient being and to me they just want to absorb each other if their path crossed??
The broader path will devour the narrower path. Basically, if an Aeon has a bigger concept they will devour the lesser concept. That's why the path of Harmony (Xipe) absorbed the path of Order (Ena) because Harmony > Order.
Aeons only embody their paths, they are not the root of its existence. So if Idrila, the aeon of beauty were to be assimilated or destroyed, that doesn’t mean there will be no beauty, simply that the concept of beauty will have no physical manifestation.
As far as I know, when two aeons have similar paths the aeon belonging to a "broader" path tends to absorb the one belonging to the similar or I guess "narrower" path. Harmony (Xipe) and Order (that other aeon) are pretty similar concepts so one ended up swallowing the other. This particular case was explicitly mentioned in the game but I'm just explaining from memory so I may be missing some points.
@@crabapple. thanks
@@AP-kb3jr thanks
Aeon of finality is literally Tenet but ascended to Aeonhood
Order being consumed by harmony is very scary
the early seconds of the story immediately felt like helldivers 2, a planet home to bugs and a interstellar group deciding to conquer it to establish civilization
Ah I haven't collect all chapter yet because I'm stuck at difficulty 3 😭 I'll come back to this aftet I'm done (will probably take ages lol)
Use abundance/preservation. This 2 paths are actually kinda busted for cheesing the lower difficulties
@@dohnaseek I tried both of those and remembrance 😔 preservation couldn't even get me pass second plane while abundance and remembrance worked well except when the swarm boss use the ult. My skill issue is beyond fix lmao
just use destruction + preservation or abundance + rememberance and it's cheese
Hmm I would love to see how powerful these Aeons really are. Especially Ouroboros and Terminus.
Oroboros is probably much weaker than Nanook
@@adriantepes4355 Ye I also think Nanook is stronger than Ouroboros considering the fact that he embodies the concept of destruction.
We already caught a glimpse of 3 Aeons and their power, Nanook in the Space Station, Qlipoth allowing us to have the power of Preservation to stop Cocolia and Yaoshi's blessing, the Ambrosial Arbor.
@@quanpham1370 Sure Nanook is strong but I doubt they can survive Qlipoth's hammer
Uhh they were eating galaxies and star systems 24/7
What’s the song/ost at 4:05?? It’s absolutely beautiful
I found it’s Arteria Inceptionis
Bonked out of existence
I gotta say, HSR lore is so bizarre!
Tazzy be like the villan from thor : love and thunder 😢😢
I think Harmony is the Counterpart for Destruction
And of course Hunt for Abundance
Idk Harmony gives that eerie feeling where they seem good but REALLY REALLY suspicious. I Feel like Nanook Existed because Harmony got Stronger after Ena was absorbed
Harmony didn't get stronger, Xipe already embodied what Ena used to embody which is why Xipe ended up assimilating Ena.
It's like this:
If X ranges from 1 to 3 while Y ranges from 0 to 10 you can say that 2 belongs to X as well as Y and you can also say that X itself belongs to Y while any number greater than 3 but less than 10 would belong to Y but not X
5:40 Wait, in HI3 we learned we can't get out of a star system because of a huge amount of Imaginary power blocking our way. Is it because Qlipoth made a barrier around us?
the mythus disclaimer alert,,,,iktr mythus my bbg muddling history even in lore vids
