#ancient prediction

[naphiatra]

Bringing this back before curtains down and we get the new friends!

Light Ancient prediction:

They will be called Diurnals, which means 'during the day'

We have Nocturnes for Shadow Flight, and nocturnal means 'during the night.

What are the odds that the Shadowbinder names them that to flex on the Lightweaver?

Ok hypothetically speaking, if Perseus, Hephaestus and Ares show up in season 2 of Kaos, how would they be depicted?

Cale's Ancient Power's abilities and hidden aspects – The List

It occurred to me that for all the list I've made before, I never actually wrote one which described the Ancient Powers in detail. Since there's quite a bunch of them, I decided to make one – with a couple of yet-to-be-explored aspects noted. (There are more APs in TCF of course, and maybe I'll cover them some other time. But these are the main 7, and they're the ones which come up the most in the story.)

0. Ancient Power name Main power; Sub powers

Vitality of the Heart Physical damage recovery; Slowed aging, keeping plate in balance

Dominating Aura Fake aura of dominance; Dragon Fear immunity, aura of protection

Indestructible Shield Strong, portable shield; Chlorokinesis, dead mana absorption

Sound of Wind Aerokinesis, flight; Treasure detection, potential echolocation*

Fire of Destruction Pyrokinesis, lightining bolts; Dead mana purification, jiangshi restoration

Super Rock Geokinesis; Body protection, danger detection**

Sky Eating Water Hydrokinesis, spears; Ability to extinguish all fires, potential terraformation***

*"Potential echolocation" is due to the fact that the Thief told Cale how when she was alive, she didn't need to see, as "all she needed was the wind". Considering her occupation as a thief who never got caught until the very end - and I assume it took a LOT of effort to catch her, with the Ancient White Star's forces after her for stealing that life-restoring jar; an alleged "divine item"… She MUST have had some way to navigate in order to do all that stuff. It's not difficult to imagine that she had similar senses to Toph from Avatar the Last Airbender, except with wind. The elementals likely helped her too, but I'm pretty confident that if Cale ever lost his sight for some reason, he'd still be able to see with this Ancient Power. He just doesn't need to, so it was never brought up.

**"Danger detection" is kind of debatable, but it ties well with the lore. It might just be Super Rock teasing Cale will all those "Are You Trying To Sacrifice Yourself" questions, wanting him to use his power. But it happened a couple of times when Cale WASN'T expecting actual danger to happen. Almost as in, the Super Rock was detecting danger for him. It could be just that the Super Rock was having general "intuition" going on and was trying to proactively protect Cale. But I think it's very likely it's a legit aspect of the Ancient Power, because Earth is canonically the element closest to Death. As in, Earth is where all the bones are, where the blood soaks in, made out of dead material, et cetera. So Super Rock sensing Potential Death Ahead seems very spot on, even if it's never confirmed directly in canon. (Considering how the Indestructible Shield was revealed to be a plant controlling power later on in the story, I think it's extremely likely all Ancient Powers can have even more hidden aspects like that.)

***"Potential terraformation" is the one most in the "theory" zone of them all. The legends about the North, the unnamed God (the current most likely one to be responsible is the God of War) who chose a Saint, and the Water of Judgement/Sky Eating Water, were the least explored of them all in canon. But it was said that this particular God gave the North a rivel, and greedy humans turned it into a lake to hoard it all to themselves. In punishment, the God made that lake dry out and promise to make the river flow again, once the North receives punishment for their transgression. In general, it's unclear whether the one who created that river was the God, or the Water of Judgement… however, I think it's safe to assume it was the latter. It would make sense why they coveted both the river and the Water of Judgement, then, and why the other Ancient Power owners helped her escape to the Eastern Continent. To sum it up: I think the Sky Eating Water made that river, and that counts as terraforming. She didn't just summon water to make it, she permanently changed the landscape with it, and it would have continued to flow if the God in question didn't erase it as punishment to greedy humans. In other words, the Sky Eating water has the power to create long-term changes to the environment, same as the Sound of Wind, which reacted the whirlpools.

oh how i would love it if strangers would refrain from asking me about my scars ❤️ the most annoying part is that my most visible scar right now was caused by a very improbable accident so even if i just laugh off the question with a quick explanation i sound like a bad liar. hell on earth

[warlordfelwinter]

sentences that made me feel utterly deranged when i heard them playing shb for the first time

The Silent Orchestra is one of my favs abnos from lob corp, but I just thought of something that might be a small waste of potential, like, you know how they're only vulnerable to one type of damage depending on the current movement?

It goes Pale -> Black -> White -> Red

As far as I know, there's no reason behind this, although, I feel like it could've gone like

White -> Red -> Black -> Pale

Why? Because that's the order of the four horsemen of the apocalipse.

The four damage types correspond to the color of the four horses of the horsemen, and the apocalipse would fit The Silent Orchestra given their quote: "From break to ruin, the most beautiful performance begins"

btw, the order of the horsemen matters, since the idea is that first comes (war of) conquest on a white horse, then comes (civil) war on a red horse, followed by a black horse carrying famine, (caused by the division among classes, where luxury is produced at the expense of famine to others) and lastly, comes death, mounted in a pale horse, bringing with it, afterlife itself.

Hell, even the idea that death brings hell itself would fit, considering the "Finale" it does after it finishes it's performance.

The earth ancient release will be hilarious. I bet Arlo discovers them by falling through their ceiling while digging.

Anyways, some notes on my design:

The Earthshaker made his first children beautiful, but they turned out to be fragile. Not wanting them to be hurt, he hid them away but they were forgotten by the outside world

Fins, large eyes for retaining light + 2 pincers based on Axolotl, Waterfall climbing cave fish, and Cave lobster. Kinda based more on precious stone brittleness than actual rocks.

They can't fly, but use their fins to climb

Sketches under cut:

Ok, seeing as another ancient got teased, it is once again time for ~predictions~! (poorly drawn MS Paint illustrations included!)

this is a p interesting potential head shape, its v flat? Im not sure what to make of it at this point! but so far, my guesses that make most sense to me with this kind of head shape are:

big man (but dragon)

2. some kinda amphibian perhaps?

3. Coatl 2: Water Boogaloo

im so excited! feel free to lmk what you think + what your guesses are!!

[trans-estinien]

INSANE THEORY. that has no evidence im just spitballing cause of the 7.1 trailer. ryne is a mitron shard. not any other minfilias (again she said she was akin to an ascian) so i think. ryne herself is a mitron shard. the fucking YURI.

First years these days are all about being pretty in their cards or whatever, back in my day Jamil shaved me half bald and I didn't complain

[sophiejanefostersilver]

He really said 💅😗🪄

[floralovebot]

a petty pet peeve of mine is when artists redesign sirenix to be super cunty and lingerie-like cause like yes canon sirenix is boring but also the entire point of it is that it's the Curse of sirenix and it's supposed to be easy for them to physically Fight and swim in. so many of the redesigners want the cunty pretty mermaid look and i Get it but also please pay attention to mermaidix!! the look you want is there!! it's canon!!

and like no hate to the artists who do this, the redesigns are always super pretty. it just bugs me when people redesign something without considering why it looks the way it does in the first place. enchantix is literally proof that they can design pretty, elegant, and cunty transformations. it's not that they can't - it's that sirenix just wasn't supposed to be like that. and it's okay if people want it to be like that, but it's a Little annoying when people ignore the purpose and lore of sirenix so the redesign ends up being cunty swimwear with no other intention And ignore mermaidix the literal canon transformation that Is what people want sirenix to be.
