    Having remembered a summarized version of The Balladeer's a.k.a. Scaramouche's story from the Traveler, Nahida goes to check on a piece of memory in the Irminsul that she also created and kept as some sort of backup file. What they uncovered was the full story behind how Scaramouche became a Fatui Harbinger which is also connected to the tragedy that happened in Tatarasuna. This was hidden behind an allegorical fairy tale that has a monster, a clan of foxes, and a kitten as the main characters. This cutscene recorded in full length and in HD quality is part of the Sumeru Archon Quest Interlude Chapter: Act III officially titled "Inversion of Genesis" with a subpart titled "The Kabukimono's Finale".

      Taking into Dottore's backstory, which was mentioned in the Pale Flame Artifacts, plus the secret notes/world quests/books which hinted his initial identity as Zandik, its understandable regarding the feelings of jealousy.

      @@vanessachowjiaying4423 I doubt Dottore feels jealous of "having friends" and he only cares about fitting in to the extend of making persuing his own interest more convenient. (At least based on what we know so far, future info can ofc change.)
      The difference between him and Scara is that Scara was BORN (/created) differently, then got abandoned by his mother for something he had no control over, then tried his best to fit in because he genuinely wanted friends/family, people to connect with.
      Meanwhile Dottore's family/living situation must have been good enough that he could enroll into the Akademiya (for example it's almost impossible if you're born poor or in the desert nowadays, and a few hundred years ago they were probably even more discriminatory).
      He was described as handsome, smart and a great conversationalist, and was able to quickly befriend people even if they had a negative first impression of him. He didn't have any problem fitting in besides his very morally questionable opinions (something you aren't born with and have control over). He was reprimanded multiple times and didn't change his behavior and only cared about whether he got expelled or not because studying and experimenting and all that stuff is easier to do at the Akademiya with funding than on your own. Evidently he didn't care about whether others liked him unless it benefitted his goals. We don't know why exactly he was expelled but at the VERY LEAST he literally murdered an other student. Sooo... I think it's fair to say he ocastrated himself.
      In short: Scara thought his friends betrayed him, Dottore strangled his "friends".
      I'd argue one is a monster in sheeps clothing or in this case fox fur, the other is just born different. (Not talking about everything he did after joining the Fatui since the fairly tale is about his past only up to that point).

      @@Mercyfalls I think, at the very least, Dottore cared about fitting in more than just the practical utility being accepted gave him. There was too much venom and bitterness when he said he didn't want to be rejected by the Akademiya yet again.
      I don't think he'll be a tragic figure like Scaramouche, but he might be a pitiable one. From how the story framed it, I see it as less Dotore being jealous of Scaramouche obtaining friends, and more bitterness about the fact that he has to put up so many facades and lies to hide his ugliness and inhuman perspective, yet Scaramouche, being completely inhuman and completely open about it, is still accepted without a single hesitation.

      I think Nahida saw it or knew a lot about Dottore before that. You can read what I'm about to mention in the Fatui Artifacts Set when you not want to read or know anything about it, it may be a spoiler!!!
      There it is mentioned that since he was a child, Dottore has been called a monster and a madman and was banished from his hometown with clubs and pitchforks. He then goes to the academy, but he wasn't treated any differently there either and after all Pierro found him.
      I would also like to mention that people may called him a monster because he had a dream from a young age to give normal people the power of a god. Why or if he had this dream as a child is still unclear I think.
      Anyway after this Fairy Tale I think Dottore believed at some point that he is a monster and he must act like one but that he still has feelings of guilt etc like a human being? I also think Dottore was kind of jealous of Scaramouche too because he's a puppet and they still treated him like a human, but he's basically always been on the run and he never had anyone in his entire life?
      Also something else why I believe that Nahida knew more about Dottore before she read his mind is, because she asked him if he could managed to make peace with himself and i found it weird that Dottore didn't answer this question and just changed the subject.
      Sorry, I just love how well written Dottore's character is. He seems to have a really complex story, which is what really draws me in... :(

    • @katzcat8181
      @katzcat8181 Před rokem +95

      @@CottonCandy00 My concern is how the start of the fairytale can be read:
      For one part, I can understand it as Dottore managing to get into Tatarasuna and join its community, he pitied them because they couldn't understand that his despise, under a magnifying glass, was absolutely dooming them from the start.
      OR if we are getting a bit of Dottore's background after being chased out of Sumeru- because they seem a bit unique: a father fox welcoming Dottore, a mother fox seemingly glad to see him, and a wide-eyed young fox staring at him. We don't know much about Tatarasuna, but Dottore as Escher (if I'm remembering correctly) never mentioned a family, just that the engineers of Inazuma welcomed him when he mentioned he came from Fountain to help him. So...why a family of foxes? I could understand his pity if it was a condescending one, but in the story Dottomon looks legitly upset that the family can't see him for what he is/can't understand him.
      I can't understand it for the Tatarasuna plot BUT I can understand it as Nahida explaining Dottore's sudden decision to actively antagonize Scaramouche: here is Dottore, who was a normal human yet albeit one smarter than the rest, who knew nothing but hostility and persecution all of his life for wanting to make Gods, seeing a puppet from none other the Raiden Shogun being completely accepted in their community despise his highly inhuman nature just because he can pretend better than him. Remember, when he speaks to Niwa, he's relishing in the suffering it's going to cause Scaramouche and how no one will be able to stop him once Niwa's gone and mocks him for daring to call Scaramouche a human and even compares himself to a demon.
      Like, Dottore made everything about Scaramouche suddenly a very personal matter when his mission was just to make an opening for the Fatui in Inazuma because he could have swayed him via manipulation- but instead, he made him suffer for more years until Pierro decided to let him join the Fatui. And even then, both Dottore and Signora are very keen on calling Scaramouche a puppet in a very demeaning manner, not just because that's what he is, as if he's lower than them.

    @alwaysalittlered6434 Před rokem +593

    My theory Summary : Dottore was originally trying to cause trouble to Inazuma which Jester had requested. He decided to fake being a friend to infuriate Tatarasura, but the people treated him like their own and dottore felt he was a monster after being treated so well. He saw himself as a monster that no one could accept. And pity to them that they could not see his true self and only saw his fake. Though he felt comfort that they were able to accept scaramouche despite being non human. Envy built up inside him and he felt furious that they were able to accept him so easily, while he had to hide his true self. This motivated him and broke the hesitation to corrupt Tatarasura and complete Jester’s request. I don’t know but perhaps Dottore saw Scaramouche as a test subject or maybe he was just bitter so he conducted the furnace experiment on him, when he survived Dottore saw Scaramouche as a good pawn.

    • @Mercyfalls
      @Mercyfalls Před rokem +41

      That's a nice theory and I would like your version! (And who knows, with there being so many different segments who could have different personalities then theoretically nothing is "out of character" for Dottore until we know more)
      But I'm afraid that based on what we know so far, Dottore didn't care about people being nice to him or treating him as "one of their own" and that wouldn't have emotionally touched him at all.
      People liked him at the Akademiya yet he was literally murdering girls who wanted to be his friend/date long before he ever joined the Fatui.
      Sure, it irked him that people at the Akademiya saw him as a madman and didn't agree with his views...
      but I'd say he only has himself to blame. I mean..... if one's true self means "doesn't care about morals, ethics, feelings, health or lives of others" it's unsurprising that others won't accept them. He can't murder people if he feels like it and experiment on children and then expect others to not mind.

    Idk maybe this is just me, but has anybody else noticed that the way nahida portrayed the monster/dottore was kind of sad too, like going off on the facial expressions of the little characters and such. I mean probably it's mostly just to give the story a fairy tale feel, the "actually lonely monster who tried to make friends" character (bc we know that that wasn't what canon dottore was trying to do, he wasn't trying to make friends), but part of me wonders if maybe, bc nahida made contact with dottore, she saw a deep and hidden part of him that we don't know about (a tragic backstory? hidden agendas?) and that's partially why she portrayed him in such a way?

      I think he burned the child, but he wanted to know if the child had a heart, because he saw the child just like him. A boy without a name. So when the boy told the story, he thought that’s how you can find the heart but when he realized the boy just disappeared into ashes, he saw that as betrayal and so for him, it was like being told he doesn’t have a heart. Maybe after, he buried the ashes of the child.

    I wonder if Nahida got that impression from Scaramouche himself, or if she applied it to him. Because, if it was the case that she saw it in him... then that means all Scaramouche really wanted as an Archon was to destroy the boundaries between all people, so there were no more outcasts and misfits. So everyone would belong.

  • @Vemin247
    @Vemin247 Před rokem +48

    To get this first out of the way: I think it’s important to note that Nahida chose all of the lines in her deliberate allegory (which the traveler agreed reflected the events that occurred well and accurately) with the intent of reminding herself of the truth and that Nahida has been inside of Dottore’s head and had a glimpse of his inner thoughts.
    The way the original Chinese depicts this tale is interesting because it taps more into a certain line that a lot of people seem to be not paying attention to. The tale of the little monster and the kitten is a bit different in the original Chinese text as it's implied Dottore used Niwa’s heart to protect Scaramouche from the furnace (not to necessarily torment him that way) and to ensure he'll make it out alive without any damage being done to him. The tale mentions that the kitten (Scaramouche) and little monster (Dottore) befriended each other/the little monster felt companionship/understanding. And he wanted the kitten to understand his view. The only remainder of this narrative that seems consistent in the English localization seems to be the line where Dottore is depicted as a “lone monster” and the tale references that he felt solace when the kitten joined them (with the mention of them both desiring to be foxes, which is an allegory for wanting to fit in with the humans).
    To add to this, the original Chinese of Scaramouche’s story text in his profile reads "(the Doctor) warmly welcomed the puppet and delicately cared for him in the years to come." From this we might speculate that rather than only being jealous of Scaramouche for being accepted, he had finally found another outcast who could maybe understand him. And he wanted it to remain that way without anyone's interference at the time.
    Which touches up on Dottore's possible loneliness and his need for companionship, to be understood and have an equal who could match his views of the world that had long since been rejected.

    I think the monster is Dottore since whatever he was wearing was light blue like his hair and his “face” was in the shape of the plague doctor’s mask that he wears in his shoulder…the kitten is obviously scara since he has red eyeliner and the feather around his neck

      yeah it's tragic no matter where you look, ei thought he deserved freedom but unintentionally making him feel abandoned in the process, and just when he thought he found people he could be with that genuinely loved him, the entire community is destroyed by a cruel experiment. Tries to find love and companionship again, found it in a child, but said child also ends up dying from the same thing that destroyed his previous community. Doesn't really excuse all the destruction he caused later on and he should take accountability and make up for it (from the quest it sounds like he's gonna try and do that), but it does make you feel sorry for him, makes you wonder about all the "what ifs" that could've happened for none of this to happen to him

    Ive seen different opinions in here about the monster, so im gonna share my point of view: dottore is the monster, firstly because he clearly was the one who took the heart of niwa and in the story it also was really a heart the monster took. Second, theres a misconception that the one nagamasa killed was shown as the fox who got their heart taken; no that was not katsuragi, that was niwa, who was killed by this “escher” persona, which wiuld be dottore. Third, niwas heart was the one given to the kabukimono by “escher” (to create misconseption “escher” told him niwa killed one of his subordinates and took his heart)

    From the notes scattered around Sumeru, We can tell that Zandik (Dottore's real name, Which means "Heretic" in Arabic btw) might've been a narcissist.
    Envy is a huge trait of narcissistic people. So, Who knows. Maybe he did feel envious towards Wanderer. After all, He seems to have been an outcast. Everyone did not agree with what he was doing and no one understood him nor supported his passion.

    • @Vemin247

      One does need to be narcissistic to feel capable of envy, though it’s very possible that Dottore developed his present sense of pride as a response to how he was ostracized and shunned from the community.

      @@JFreetard it's probably how he felt. My guess is that somewhere deep down, the sicko's really upset that he's ostracized when he shows how corrupt and cruel his means of progression and entertainment are. He probably acted out of line and started warping the furnace for tataragami energy when Scaramouche showed up since the future Balladeer was fully accepted despite being seen as a hollow being. My point is the psychopath could only hide in plain sight while Kunikuzushi would be accepted openly.
      Il Dottore still showed up looking for Scaramouche, but was set off when Scaramouche was found by the Tatarasuna natives and accepted.
      He's probably had points where he had to hide his Psychopathic nature and still gets pissed when he sees others not in the same situation.

The pale flame artifact lore also states how people banished him from his homeland for his beliefs and mentality. In the Sumeru AQ, he says that he doesn't want to be rejected by the academia for a *second time* . He got angry about how everyone keeps rejected him while scara, despite of his inhuman origins is treated so nicely and thus he killed miwa to destroy scara's life
