he sounded like an old, grumpy, sarcastic, irritable old man then. he still sounds like one all these years later. bless Emet-Selch for not changing his ways one bit. XD
The thing that makes me cry most about this scene is "I certainly did." Because it means he took that crystal he made in secret, imbued with his memories of Azem and one of their most loved spells, to all the places they would have gone to in their stead, and believed it his duty AS THEIR BEST FRIEND to do so, to take what was left of them to see and know what they were no longer around to experience. That...That is incredible. The bonds between people are stronger than death, stronger than despair, stronger even than oblivion itself. Always cherish those you love. Especially when they have gone, do not despair, hold close that bond and remember them, remember that they once lived.
"Strong art thou, mortal" this was the one that broke me. As powerful and deadly as Dragons are, Midgarsomar recognises you as strong, which is saying something.
Midgarsormn deprived you from your blessing and you prove your worth to him. This is why he considers you strong and an ally/friend. Otherwise he wouldn't use the last of his true strenght to save you from Omega.
to me there were 3, difficult to choose which one Ardbert , Haurchefant and Minfilia 's... when i played EW and was doing this part i was depressed and mentally broken. This expansion literally saved my life
Emet talking about locations you haven’t been to yet, is like your friend watching you finish reading this book called The Hobbit, then while you sitting back and saying what a great story it was, he says “yeah it was a great book, but haven’t you heard of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy? The Samirillon??...WHAT, YOU HAVEN'T??? WHAT ROCK DO YOU LIVE UNDER???"
People might wonder where we go from this to which I will say we have all of Emet Selch’s suggestions, 5 Shards to explore, and a void to return light to. Indeed the journey is far from over.
The way emet speaks of the 12 i wonder could they be ancients that venat didn't sundered clearly the power she gain by becoming a primal could easily let her choose who became sundered or not but this is a theory i could be wrong
The Elpis flowers being in its normal state makes a lot more sense if you do some of the sidequests and FATEs in the zone Dragonets with "OK, Boomer" attitudes towards the hopeless adult dragons, Eas that want to re-experience what its like to have corporeal forms, and Omicrons that want more out of life than constant combat
Gods. His smile just before he vanishes. Gets me every single time. Almost like he knows something we don’t. Maybe we will meet again. There at journeys end. And when we do, we can share all of our tales of adventure with him. That wouldn’t be so bad. Would it?
As much as I cherish Emet's character, that is also the reason why I would never want to see him ever again. He made the most perfect, adequate exit from the plotline from what I can imagine. I'm afraid 'reviving' him from that state would just be like making him overstay his welcome. But if it is that you're talking about like the very end, THE end of FFXIV... then yeah, that would make it a good throwback if there will be any.
I cried through this entire scene. Once I knew who I had summoned I was probably sobbing. Emet just establishing himself as the best character is FFXIV in just a few sentences that were way too short.
@@Exteliongamer And it was marvelous. Whats great about this scene is that I can't think of a better way for it to happen. Even him acknowledging the past, that he forgot and the reason we fought it was brilliant!
you know the story's good, when he's most people's favorite, while being the same character that wanted to destroy 13 worlds to rejoin them all. And then kill the survivors to feed them to zodiark to resurrect his friends. Dude had a double genocide in plans, and still we all love him.
You know exactly who those two are as soon as they are summoned, especially when the first thing you hear from Emet is a big sigh lol. Yet when it zooms out on them in full view in front of the WoL with that boom noise it sends chills down the spine.
I love how we couldn't run during that sequence. We walked. Just like Venat wanted us to. Fun fact but maybe not so fun fact: you can use shout chat but you cannot see anyone else's messages. No one can see yours. You are truly alone.
Okay, now I want Emet-selch to reincarnate just so he can snark about coming back to life. And just so Hythlodaeus can be "I told u so!" I want my ot3 back. Stop separating them.
And thus, the Elpis flower did indeed become test and proof of the WoL's conviction. A conviction that would not fade even in the very nest of despair. Oh boy, what a trip this expansion has been.
Emet-Selch was my favourite part of FF14. We do anything to save the ones we love, and we found somebody who was doing the same and in Hythlodaeus we saw the his was a worthy fight, but in the end we all are willing to give our all for the star.
I finished endwalker about 3 weeks ago. My fiancé and roommate stayed up until 3am with me to watch me get to and finish ultima thule. The amount of tears I cried up to kissing the twins could fill a damn 6’ deep pool! When I started walking and the voices spoke to me I tried to contain myself. Cue Haurchefant’s voice, and I broke!!!! Cue Ryne’s voice, I couldn’t breathe! Cue second Arbert’s voice, I said “this is the most beautiful story I have ever read”.
"If you take the blue pill, you will become the greatest threat this world has ever known. If you take the red pill, you will become the best friend the Warrior of Light could ever have." "I see." "Did...did you just take both pills?" Phenomenal writing for this fellow.
Part of what saves Emet Selch from being seen as the monster his genocides should label him as, is that he suffered no small amount of misery himself. He could have just given up. Died and faded away. Instead, he set out on a path that, yes, would kill many, many, many people. But we see him in Shadowbringers. And he is very, very, very tired. He's not doing this for himself. He's not trying to reclaim the seat of power he once held. He would simply do anything for his people. It doesn't excuse his actions, but a selfless villain, with noble goals, really is different from your usual villain. I can't think of a better Anti-Villain. The only downside is that Venat never gets called out on what she did. She started this whole 'genocide' thing. Emet Selch would never have done what he didn't if she didn't tear the world apart. Venat also suffered in the furtherance of her solution, and so I can forgive her as well. But she's got just as much blood on her hands as Emet Selch and Meteion. All had horrifying solutions to the horrors they faced. But Venat isn't ever treated as a villain by anyone but Emet Selch.
@@Sines314 I don't buy that Venat has all that blood on her hands. It was Emet-Selch's choice to kill all those people to bring about that rejoining. She never told him to do that. Venat saw firsthand in Elpis what excessive knowledge and power untempered by wisdom could do, and did what she could to make sure nobody could ever come by that knowledge again without going through the struggles that naturally come with it.
@@Sines314 Venat is not a villain what, she sundered the people of Etheirys because they had too much aether in them and not enough room for dynamis, so if mankind were to stand a chance against meteion they would need the power of dynamis
The moment that first echo spoke I literally covered my mouth and started to tear up, this moment was one of the many great moments in Endwalker that shine and stick with me. Each echoes just made me cry harder and harder, like just rewatching it has me in some tears as well. The build up to the walk was perfect.
Kinda feel sorry for Emet. All this time, he refused to see that the one he had been fighting for so long, was one of his most beloved friends. Azem. Now? now he has to spend the remainder of his fading soul within the star listening to Hythlodaeus pointing at him and going, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHA! I told you! hahahaha!
The pacing is so much better just continuing to walk. It was very powerful. Memory after memory hitting every nerve. The lose and sacrifice of our friends to just get to this moment.
Emet-Selch's suggestions for future content all have the makings of a fun, adventurous "Mists of Pandaria" style expansion and I'd be 100% there for it.
Oof... you are comparing ff14's story with the one of wow? >.> The day ff14 becomes as idotic as world of warcraft is the day I stop playing. Granted, mists of pandaria is still better than wod, bfa and shadowlands (all a score beneath 3/10 on metactritic by the way = so pretty bad), but the story in world of warcraft as a whole is still as brain afk as it can get. So no, please not a "mists of pandaria" expansion. Thanks.
@@reyk1665 I really just meant in terms of having having an expansion that was more of a light-hearted adventure after having two really dramatically _heavy_ expansions back to back. Not in terms of writing quality or structure.
@@Xelpherpolis Ah, I see. mop wasn't really light-hearted though. It was (again) Alliance & Horde brainlessly trying to kill eachother, until there was a common foe, then fighting together and after that trying to kill eachother again. This "great" storyline is repeating itself since warcraft 3 and was probably most bonkers during bfa with the Horde committing straight up genocide nonstop and are still considered champions. xD It was the same during mists with some pandas in between. But everything revolving arounnd the main story (Alliance & Horde) is really, really tiresome. I agree though, some light-hearted stuff in ff14 would be a nice change after Endwalker. :) Personally I was a little bit disappointed of Zenos' story arc and would have wished for it to be a bit more developed... but who knows what the future holds.
i love how the protagonists mouth slowly opens in hunger for adventure when emet tells them about all the possible adventures and treasures they could find xD
When Emet dropped that there is a whole fucking America that we have yet to hear anything about made me realize that Square can totally do New World better than the New World team did if we ever have an expansion just about exploring this “new world” as Emet calls it
@@Exteliongamer I broke down hard at "Meteion , thought I gave you these wings to sour the heavens, I did not teach you how to walk the earth, so loath was I to bind another living being. In the course of your long journey, you will learn from those you meet. Learn to walk and run, and so much more. 🤔 A flower? Yes. Upon your return, I will gift you a beautiful flower." Waaaah!! 😭😭😭
I jumped upon hearing Ryne's echo (the second last one) Emet-Selch always so dramatic, fucking love that dude. The sarcasm, the shade, the theatrics, and his foresight/foreshadowing...that bastard lmao. Everytime Hythodaeus appears fully, I'm like: He's sooo pretty, too pretty lmao 🤣. But man the emotions, and feels from this expac just literally come gushing out
he sounded like an irritable, stubborn, sarcastic, grumpy old man then...all these years later and he hasn't change a bit. beginning to understand why people call him the best villain in a FF game to date.
WHY DOES EVERY CUTSCENE IN THIS EXPANSION MAKE ME CRY!? EDIT: Also, I've seen a comic out there somewhere where someone had their own additions to this scene. Before Emet and Hylo leave their WOL let's them know that next time they meet they are dragging the two of them on an adventure. Similar to the promise that the WOL made with G'Raha.
Oh yeah iirc Hythlodaeus is an enabler in a way of speaking for Azem, the 3 go together hand in hand heck if you read one of the short stories the azem before Venat or us jumps into a volcano to Emets dismay, iirc
I just finished EW. I’m sad that I’m finally at the end tbh, it was such a ride from like my initial login to this. I sobbed during this entire sequence, I was so scared my scions were gone for good this time; I was devastated over Emet’s end, g’raha
I started sobbing during the Ardbert quotes during "the walk" and cried even harder and also smiled when Emet showed up. My god, what a character! Honestly, my favorite in any piece of media I've ever consumed. Love that Ascian
I love that Emet is totally unapologetic for what he did in ShB. It’s not some cliche “Oh you were right the whole time and I just didn’t see”. He still firmly believes he was justified. He just lost.
Golden take. "You won. But I can't bring myself to see your side of things. So, instead, I leave it to you, the stronger of two wills." Honestly I wish more instances of this existed.
@@luminozero Thank you for doing this, I honestly forgot a lot of their quotes and voices! When the 1st shadow showed up, I immediately recognize Haucherfaunt and it fucking broke me. I crying all the way to the end and not remembering who was talking except for the very few voices that I manage to pick up with all the sobbing I was doing. The ones I recognize were Count Edmont, Beq Lugg, Midgardsmor & Minfilia.
One of my favorite parts of this game is how often you see those you’ve helped in the past. Sometimes they even give you a dialogue choice to say that you remember them, even if it doesn’t actually change anything I still remembered them all. The walk of remembering all the friends we’ve made along the way really hit home for me.
It's a piano version of To The Edge/alternate rendition of 'Amaurot'. I can't find an official name for it either but I hope it's out there (I want it for my orchestrion)
I believe the song is called "The Legacy". At one point I was able to find the song on CZcams, but it may have been taken down, as I can't seem to find it anymore.
i know its a sin that could not be forgiven for the rest of my life >< been playing 10 hours straight at this point of the game and i just needed a bathroom break and food that i didnt realize that dialogue was important when i move just a little >
Correct, when Hermes alters their memory with Kairos( I think) the only way for them to remember what they had been made to forget was to be return to the aetherial sea(die). Since the end of shadowbringer with his death we made that happen and he was able to remember what he forgot.
My theory for the 12 is that they are the parents of the Ascians, in much the same way that Greek & Roman gods gave birth to various Demigods & that by the end of the alliance raid that & possibly more will be revealed.
ngl, those spectres freaked me out at first, i thought "oh no, its those damned corrupted souls from Rusty Lake... D:" but i wasn't sure if Yoshi-P would do a reference to a flash game that many may not be familiar with. Jessie Cox (famous youtuber/twitch streamer) made the reference as well, so i feel a little bit more assured about it.
@@ShadowNinjaMaster93 Well, the former Azem. She relinquished that spot and the seat was given to a successor who remains, as of yet, unseen. The WoL is the reincarnation of that Azem, while Venat became Hydaelyn and doesn't really go by Azem anymore. Azem is like a title she gave up and passed unto another. Venat was her real name and Hydaelyn became her new name after she turned into the planet defending crystal goddess.
We created them with that size in mind because they're literally 13 times thicker in aether if we summon them in their true form. Venat's creation magick in the stone was only enough for us to recreate the other 7 Scions + two "half-faded soul of the dead" version of then. If we spend it all on recreating them the Scions would be dead :P For Meteion, she can assume any form with any aether thickness she want (remember back in Elpis when she manipulated her aether so it became so thin than nobody can detect her but us?) if she can turn herself invisible I don't see why she can't turn herself a little smaller. You know for easy, less awkward conversations. Imagine if she's just giant and have to look down on us the whole way while saying random depressing shit like omg talking to you gives me sore neck thus we all must die, no more unrelenting despair from a forever sore neck...yeah that'd be awkward
He is back, he brings everyone back, he scolds you for knowing only Eorzea.
I love him.
Feels like Dad lol
He also scolds you for not know Eorzea enough.
Dude is a fucking asshole. And I would never have it any other way.
he sounded like an old, grumpy, sarcastic, irritable old man then. he still sounds like one all these years later. bless Emet-Selch for not changing his ways one bit. XD
@@horatio_lionheart if anything his younger self was grumpier lol
@@dracotias true...his older self seemed more snarky and sarcastic if any thing else. but that's why we love him.
The thing that makes me cry most about this scene is "I certainly did." Because it means he took that crystal he made in secret, imbued with his memories of Azem and one of their most loved spells, to all the places they would have gone to in their stead, and believed it his duty AS THEIR BEST FRIEND to do so, to take what was left of them to see and know what they were no longer around to experience. That...That is incredible.
The bonds between people are stronger than death, stronger than despair, stronger even than oblivion itself. Always cherish those you love. Especially when they have gone, do not despair, hold close that bond and remember them, remember that they once lived.
It's sad to think that Emet probably saw this as his last opportunity to have a heart-to-heart with Azem.
The last in this life, perhaps.
But there'll be other chances, for us and for him.
"Strong art thou, mortal" this was the one that broke me. As powerful and deadly as Dragons are, Midgarsomar recognises you as strong, which is saying something.
Midgarsormn deprived you from your blessing and you prove your worth to him. This is why he considers you strong and an ally/friend. Otherwise he wouldn't use the last of his true strenght to save you from Omega.

Ardbert
, Haurchefant

😂 and I look forward to seeing those places Emet mentioned
Not so much "what rock do you live under" and "oh boy you're one of today's lucky ten thousand!"
Darn Emet throwing out a bunch of plot hooks for future expansions. Jerk knows how to play us.
He was kind of breaking the fourth wall and I was super salty about it lmao
Yeah I was like I bet we going to these places he talking about lol
All hail emet we shall do as he wishes
Emet: Come on Warrior of Light! This shit is prints money!!
Seen the Dawntrail trailer? I'm sure you know now you called it.
People might wonder where we go from this to which I will say we have all of Emet Selch’s suggestions, 5 Shards to explore, and a void to return light to. Indeed the journey is far from over.
We are Azem, The Traveller, we will explore and experience them all.
"You've traveled across the country, but have you ever studied your back yard in detail?"
I would like to see a non-cataclysmic rejoining of the 13th.
Plus we also have a dark timeline from Shadowbringers that we may end up visiting one day. The possibilities are endless.
The way emet speaks of the 12 i wonder could they be ancients that venat didn't sundered clearly the power she gain by becoming a primal could easily let her choose who became sundered or not but this is a theory i could be wrong
The Elpis flowers being in its normal state makes a lot more sense if you do some of the sidequests and FATEs in the zone

THIS!
Kill the elderly.
God that's so true
Hope springs eternal, eh?
Looking back, this was a powerful moment.
Emet selch and Hythlodaeus were the best characters in Endwalker.
Puddingway is better
The best since the beginning even, imho.
bruh, Venat?
Hythlo-bae-us
Emet Selch is the best character in Final Fantasy.
Not Endwalker. Not Final Fantasy 14. In Final Fantasy.

he sounded like an irritable, stubborn, sarcastic, grumpy old man then...all these years later and he hasn't change a bit. beginning to understand why people call him the best villain in a FF game to date.
Endwalker was way too good
It is 🤣 they somehow manage to make it this good and it did not disappoint 🥰
WHY DOES EVERY CUTSCENE IN THIS EXPANSION MAKE ME CRY!?
EDIT: Also, I've seen a comic out there somewhere where someone had their own additions to this scene. Before Emet and Hylo leave their WOL let's them know that next time they meet they are dragging the two of them on an adventure. Similar to the promise that the WOL made with G'Raha.
This was hands down one of the best parts of any game ive ever played
8:47 - 9:03 Even Venat seems quite mischievous, like Hythlodaeus, when it comes to Emet-Selch. Makes me want to laugh really hard... 🤣🤣🤣
Oh yeah iirc Hythlodaeus is an enabler in a way of speaking for Azem, the 3 go together hand in hand heck if you read one of the short stories the azem before Venat or us jumps into a volcano to Emets dismay, iirc
@@galephantom7902 Oh...that short story, I did read them. And I love that story.
This part was soooooo cool!
The best positive cutscene in the story of etherys. The journey has been long, but we persevered. As the wol and as a community. 10 years
The hardest try not to cry challenge ever
I just finished EW. I’m sad that I’m finally at the end tbh, it was such a ride from like my initial login to this. I sobbed during this entire sequence, I was so scared my scions were gone for good this time; I was devastated over Emet’s end, g’raha
12:43 i let out a genuine gasp of happiness when he said this
I started sobbing during the Ardbert quotes during "the walk" and cried even harder and also smiled when Emet showed up. My god, what a character! Honestly, my favorite in any piece of media I've ever consumed. Love that Ascian
This scene was perfection 🥰
I love that Emet is totally unapologetic for what he did in ShB. It’s not some cliche “Oh you were right the whole time and I just didn’t see”. He still firmly believes he was justified. He just lost.
Nope. Bad take.
Golden take. "You won. But I can't bring myself to see your side of things. So, instead, I leave it to you, the stronger of two wills." Honestly I wish more instances of this existed.
I wish i had better memory to remember every quote and who said them...it was so long ago i barely remember them

@@luminozero ardbert was the first and last one
@@chicityjay Yes, but that voice clip isn't in this video.
@@luminozero I thought it was my bad
@@luminozero Thank you for doing this, I honestly forgot a lot of their quotes and voices! When the 1st shadow showed up, I immediately recognize Haucherfaunt and it fucking broke me. I crying all the way to the end and not remembering who was talking except for the very few voices that I manage to pick up with all the sobbing I was doing. The ones I recognize were Count Edmont, Beq Lugg, Midgardsmor & Minfilia.
That snap is really satisfying
Why do I always cry when I see this scene. My 2 fav characters :3
One of my favorite parts of this game is how often you see those you’ve helped in the past. Sometimes they even give you a dialogue choice to say that you remember them, even if it doesn’t actually change anything I still remembered them all. The walk of remembering all the friends we’ve made along the way really hit home for me.
Not me sobbing my eyes out. 😭
Though I gave you wings to soar the heavens….I never taught you how to walk the earth….😢
I wonder if someone will make a compilation showing the scenes all of the Voice from the Past lines are from.
I would love that, cuz some of the voices i know to who they belong to and some i don't remember
The CZcams channel Cobrak they edited the faces of the voices into the cutscenes when they uploaded the video of them going through the final walk
Anyone knows the name of the music playing starting at 11:29?
I never understand why they put ???? for Emet and Hythlodeus. As if we wouldn't recognize them from their masks or voices alone at this point.
Haurchenfant our waifu 0:13
does anyone know what the name of the music is, that plays when Emet-Selch and Hythlodaeus are summoned?
It's a piano version of To The Edge/alternate rendition of 'Amaurot'. I can't find an official name for it either but I hope it's out there (I want it for my orchestrion)
I found under "Heroes Forge Ahead" if you search for it by that name
I could watch those two get into trouble all day
anyone know what the music that plays at 7:05 is called? it kinda sounds like the Endwalker battle theme, except it sounds more intense.
"Heroes Forge Ahead". It also plays during the final cutscene at the top of Ktisis Hyperboreia before WoL and Venat ride through the confluence.
@@atraxos you are a gentleman and a scholar. thank you for helping me find this gem of a track.
I tear up everytime
Is there an official name for the piano version of To The Edge played in this scene?
And there nay come a Day, where you forget the faces and voices of those you met along the way..... 😢
I wish i knew the name of the orchestra that plays this song :(
Close in the Distance Orchestrion Roll, its from the FATE vendor once you get rank 3 in Ultima Thule
I only remember a few of these lines by the voices.anyone list them somehwere?
11:00 was the one time I actually cried.
Hermes talking to meteion got me, but then the scions came back and I lost my soul, like it just got up and walked to the store to get liquor.
What makes me cry is, “as a show of respect to the last of us”, making me think he is accepting the WOL as a fellow being😢
Does anyone have a reference for all the lines/voices? I only recognized like three...

The song that starts at 7:09 is more my speed, would love to know That song lol when They get summoned
I’m with ya dude! Endwalkers music was soooooo good!!!
I believe the song is called "The Legacy". At one point I was able to find the song on CZcams, but it may have been taken down, as I can't seem to find it anymore.
emet selch be hinting at new areas in the next expansions 👀
Sounds like a fire maiden hits diff
0:10 i just wanna know, who's cutting damn onions?! T_T
i just want them back😭
this fucked me up so bad man i was a fucking mess AHHHH
Whats the music 7:10
Am I mistaken that this one caries the true mark of a Wol?
Skipped the first one, that's a sin, dude.
"If you need a push, I'll be right there behind you."
i know its a sin that could not be forgiven for the rest of my life >< been playing 10 hours straight at this point of the game and i just needed a bathroom break and food that i didnt realize that dialogue was important when i move just a little >
Ardbert's "if you need a push" is where I started full on crying
So all of Emet-Selch's Memory is back/combined in this scene? he remembers everything now?
Correct, when Hermes alters their memory with Kairos( I think) the only way for them to remember what they had been made to forget was to be return to the aetherial sea(die). Since the end of shadowbringer with his death we made that happen and he was able to remember what he forgot.
Whats the OST for when Emet and Hythlodeaus are summoned?
Heroes Forge Ahead.
Anyone know were all these quotes come from?
czcams.com/video/1GtiDjMrJ08/video.html
This is why you write your expansions in advance
So everything makes sense
What’s the ost?
I'm not crying... you're crying
..... shut up!
is it possible to replay this part within the game?
Until they add it to NG+
One of the shadows : pray return to the waking sands
🤣
Why is this 🤬so pretty !?!? 😂 everytime he’s on screen
Oh jeez, how long have you been playing on that huge UI? That was one of the first things that bugged me when I got FF14
My theory for the 12 is that they are the parents of the Ascians, in much the same way that Greek & Roman gods gave birth to various Demigods & that by the end of the alliance raid that & possibly more will be revealed.
ngl, those spectres freaked me out at first, i thought "oh no, its those damned corrupted souls from Rusty Lake... D:" but i wasn't sure if Yoshi-P would do a reference to a flash game that many may not be familiar with.
Jessie Cox (famous youtuber/twitch streamer) made the reference as well, so i feel a little bit more assured about it.
Rusty lake ??? Ya never heard of that game before 😞
They reminded me of those humanity sprites you encounter in the ds1 dlc
What is the name of the song playing
Which Song? Because I would love to know the song that plays when Emet and Hythlo showed up
@@weirdz3323 I found out its called ultima thule theme
@@ckfrost8559 Wrong one, The one when They
get Summoned
@@weirdz3323 oops my bad
Close In The Distance
Lets finish this..
Gimme Hyth and Emet back!!! 😭😭
Wait a minute ? Was that Mama Haydelens voice or Azims from Azims Crystal ?
I know this is late, but she *is* Azem. That was her title as a member of the fourteen.
It's Venat, aka Hydaelyn
@@ShadowNinjaMaster93 Well, the former Azem. She relinquished that spot and the seat was given to a successor who remains, as of yet, unseen. The WoL is the reincarnation of that Azem, while Venat became Hydaelyn and doesn't really go by Azem anymore. Azem is like a title she gave up and passed unto another. Venat was her real name and Hydaelyn became her new name after she turned into the planet defending crystal goddess.
"For all to play" does this mean we will them see again?
The way the camera zoomed on Hythlodaeus was very suspicious if you ask me
Jesus...Emet Selch sounds like a veteran player getting ready to unsub.
What's this fucking song?!
And so it was Emet Selch, Ascian was once again Hades, Emet Selch of the Convocation of Fourteen :)
Why are they regular sized? Aren't they supposed to be way taller than average humans? Same goes for Meteion, she's supposed to be much taller.
when in doubt assume dynamis
To be fair, you could say they're smaller because they're half faded souls as Emet stated. They lost a lot of Aether upon death.
Emet was our size when we fought him the first time and when we killed him in the dying gasp lol. Metion i can’t explain
We created them with that size in mind because they're literally 13 times thicker in aether if we summon them in their true form. Venat's creation magick in the stone was only enough for us to recreate the other 7 Scions + two "half-faded soul of the dead" version of then. If we spend it all on recreating them the Scions would be dead :P
For Meteion, she can assume any form with any aether thickness she want (remember back in Elpis when she manipulated her aether so it became so thin than nobody can detect her but us?) if she can turn herself invisible I don't see why she can't turn herself a little smaller. You know for easy, less awkward conversations. Imagine if she's just giant and have to look down on us the whole way while saying random depressing shit like omg talking to you gives me sore neck thus we all must die, no more unrelenting despair from a forever sore neck...yeah that'd be awkward
@@venuzmodeling6749 In Shadowbringers Emet-Selch is using Solus Zos Galvus body, which for some reason looks just like Emet Selch.
