Asmongold Reacts to "Dark Souls Story ► The Legend of Artorias the Abysswalker" by VaatiVidya

SOI the Sun legend of artorias the abyss walker' and it was made six years ago what the [ __ ] is this after the advent of fire three powerful souls were claimed by those who came from the dark first was claimed by Neto first of the dead the second image of the witch who felt it's me thanks for part and the last went to Quinn it's the guy I beat the Dark Soul Oh and so the first human was furtive and kept his soul a secret Lord Gwyn used his Lord soul to usher in an age of fire and light pointing for trusted Knights to defend the realm there was Dragonslayer Ornstein o captain of the guard I beat him Hawkeye Gulf unmatched he was the guy that shot the dragon down curing the assassin who laid waste Quinn's enemies and artorias the abyss walker' oh there he is but in time the flame began to fade the age of the lords was ending and the Dark Age of men was to begin [Music] okay watch the newer one that's remastered just a second oh this one here the updated one because there's yes okay in Gwynn's age of fire there were four Knights who distinguished ourselves above all others first there was Hawkeye Goff who fought in the first war again he exulted in the thrill of the hunt plucking dragons out of the sky with his enormous great boat I'm not seeing a party only dragons left were in his memories which he revisited endlessly okay fighting on the ground was on Steam the Dragon Slayer he wielded a long lightning cross spear that could be stamped deep into his stone dragon's hide what I raised as a lack went on to remind many of an exiled god of war though none of them dared to speak his name and then there was kid on whose talents differed considerably from the previous to a stealthy assassin she would have been no match for dragons and so she must have killed four Gwyn in the age of fire to follow she dazzled her foes with streaks of gold in the night and then stung with the vicious poison of her silver tracer but in the age of man to come none were as well equipped as the great Knight Artorias for nothing not dragons nor disunity nor even his enemies frightened Gwyn like the dark the dark soul of man filled the Lord of Light with fear for one day Gwyn knew the fire would fade and humanity would inherit the world his world so while he still had time Gwynne began to rink the world in his favor mankind had stood amongst those who set out to slay the ancient dragons and as if in thanks Gwyn bestowed upon pygmies and men the ringed City an enormous builded city located at World's End the walls were as tall as mountains and above them soared m'dear an immortal arch dragon that was raised by the gods wait below youngest daughter what do you mean why they want me to stop I don't know why why would he stop chat like I mean I don't know what people would want me to to look at I mean this Dark Souls 3 like who cares like I mean it's the same content right I mean it's it's just lore I mean the way I look at it is like if I understand the war I can appreciate the game as I experience it I want to I want to be able to appreciate and experience the game it's not like they're telling me what to do on a boss I want to know what's happening princess Fillion or a woman of enormous faith and power who Guin gave up to protect the pygmies until the very end of the world and at first glance you might think these acts benevolent you might think they were kind in the end it was just a trick of the light the walls were not for protection dragon had an eternal duty to battle the dark and Gwynn's daughter philia nor would never see her father again the purpose of the Ring City was not to protect the holders of the original Dark Soul it was to imprison them like a ring of fire that encircles the darkness of humanity and man was in fact branded with this very seal the dark side and despite clear evidence of their heroism in the war against the Dragons their dark knights never were lauded for their service so it's no wonder then that in all of the spellcraft and the hexes that stem from humanity one thing remains constant it craves a free will of its own its shackles the dark flaps the first example of this was that he was pygmy royalties okay and he rebelled against the light we have no idea what crimes he committed but they must have been terrible for he was put to death by Shira the night of Fillion or only the Mad King would not die and Shira with the Mad King impossibly entwined around her spear had no choice but to hold him quietly in a dark room until the end of time there were of course other human cities outside of the Ring City one such example was the dark city of New Londo which was governed by for human Kings unprotected by Knights of the dark blade those are the Kings were renowned for their horse not baptized they even had fragments of Queens very own soul bestowed upon them so that they could better govern their people of course this too was another trick of the light for what lies at the top of New Londo but filing shrine a place of undead sacrifice to Gwynn's age of fire so no human city was permitted to flourish without a clear benefit to the age of fire and there was no better example of this than another human city called all the seal was a golden land of light source of light it turns out can be manipulated to foster illusions it can hide your intentions it can even mess with the fabric of time and spells of this nature would be of great value to the gods in the coming years so will the seal flourished an exemplary city for Gwynn's Pantheon because it was proof that humanity could be taught to serve there interests and so it was that a group of missionaries from all the seal embarked upon the ring that city perhaps to preach and reinforce video power of the light in this dark City one of these missionaries was called half light and he was a talented individual wielding the powerful artifacts of his homeland he would go on to earn the favor of Fillion or and he would even earn the legendary dragon weapon of Medea so it was no surprise that a flight elected to stay behind becoming the last recorded spear of the church and just as half-light visited the ring city and even stayed behind the reverse was also true of a certain pygmy from the ringed city this pygmies name was menace and while we know nothing about the nature of the seal that's not you know why he died there okay and body of primeval man Alka Manus was put to rest far far beneath the city itself out of mud I don't know much about Manus and a lot is left to the imagination what we do know is that he was a pygmy far from home he was a part of a race that Gwyn was doing everything in his power to suppress and when you think on manases fate it's kind of hard to imagine that Gwyn didn't have a hand in it especially since Gwyn had an order of assassins the Lord's blades in his employee the leader of the Lord's blades was keyed on the Hornet it stated that she laid waste to Gwynn's enemies and of course there's no proof that the Lord's blades actually killed manis but you could also argue that that's rather the point of assassins isn't it whatever the case the tide was turning mankind was struggling against the world order or even New Londo which was once a haven for Undead had turned into a hideous spawning ground for the abyss at the heart of this uprising was a serpent named calf who swayed the four kings and taught its undead Knights how to pillage back their human some descriptions even say the darkwraiths became the most human of all but to others the darkwraiths are the enemies of men and any living thing that has a soul so as the age of man crept out closer yet another night of Quinn Daria's perfectly equipped to face it way to knight artorias with a great sword waited to strike harder against servants of the dark a great wolf who defined their fighting style and account with the beasts this knight artorias and SIF defiantly faced the worst of mankind Wow yet in the end the terror that was the darkwraiths could only be stifled with the sacrifice of their entire city such was the power of their four kings and the resilience of their abyss luckily for Guin such a safety measure had been put in place years ago and so the sealers of New Londo watched historically as water rushed into the city and thousands of innocents died by their hand the entire city was sacrificed to contain them for that is how great a threat they were but while Guin did manage to put the new londo threats on hold no one was prepared for the Opera in all the seal I imagine when they figured out that a primeval human was buried beneath their very City the temptation must have been too great to resist believe it or not you Lucille has brought the abyss upon itself fooled by that toothy serpent they upturned the grave of primeval man and incited his Warner in Wrath what could they have been thinking like the mad pygmy King before him Manus rejected death and he was as far from peace as could be war emotion of humanity that we mentioned earlier billowed outwards corrupting the townsfolk of all the seal and Mannis became the father of an unstoppable dark abyss curiously though it's almost as if he was searching for something reach across time and space until he found it instead he found dusk princess of oolacile I still think on that creature from the abyss that preyed upon me my faculties were far from lucid but I quite clearly said I'm sure wrenching nasty Oh chatters I lost joy an object of obsession and a sincere hope to reclaim it could these thoughts belong to the beast from the abyss but if that were true then perhaps it is no beast after all the object of his obsession was a pendant and with it in our possession were pulled back back to a time where all appears lost well look at this one from what far away age has now come I sent his very human indeed but not intolerable I am Elizabeth guardian of this sanctuary thou shalt see further on an abyss was begat of the ancient beasts and threatens to swallow the whole of oolacile the city is lost the abyss is spreading and mankind has succumbed to the worst parts of this twin herd of meritorious must have been the first one sent to deal with the threat he was after all the best-equipped but fighting darkwraiths is considerably different to the power of primeval so artorias was bested and was forced to retreat beset by the abyss the final act of artorias was to protect his companion he shielded SIF with the divine power of his great shield after all his arm was broken and he could no longer bear the burden then notorious himself was overcoming Knight Artorias came to stop this but such a hero has nerium murmur of dark without doubt he will be swallowed by the abyss overcome by its utter blackness indeed the abyss may be unstoppable all was lost and yet strangely soon after the spread of the abyss was actually halted and princess dusk of oolacile miraculously wandered out of the abyss Artorius his name henceforth passed into legend the knight who gave His life to disperse the abyss to rescue the princess of all the seal this is a lie of course in reality it is we who rescued the princess and we fulfilled the legacy of artorias this may strike thine ear as somewhat peculiar but long ago in my home land of oolacile I was beset by a creature from the abyss I would have perished then were it not for the great Knight Artorias in truth I saw little of what transpired her mind senses were already fled but even still there was something about artorias a certain balance of the humors that quite perfectly fits your semblance heavens could it be that with this menaces suffering has ended but Manus wasn't the only corruption of the abyss that we killed in all the seal there was also our Taurus the legend of artorias is a lie he did not vanquish the father of the abyss he did not eliminate the darkwraiths of New Londo the abyss is unstoppable and yet ian's later the legend of artorias would inspire a legion of abyss watchers who continue to rage against the dying of the light yes the abyss is unstoppable but they fight nonetheless even in this state notice that artorias continues to seek out and kill corruptions of humanity he's still in there somewhere but his legend can only live on with his death [Applause] only his fellow Knights knew the truth but they would take his soul and his secret to the grave and wallah Tauruses soul was corrupted by the worst of humanity it was the best of humanity that redeemed it and the hero of all the seal would disappear without a trace almost as if he didn't belong for in reality he didn't and eons later deep within an enchanted wood pined two locked doors and a troop of forest protectors an ancient cat speaks the truth the legend of Artorias sat none but a fabrication traversing the doll I shoot is but a fairy tale Alvina is keen to downplay the legend of artorias because heroes and bandits have begun seeking out his grave they would desecrate his legacy for the secret of abyss walking they may do harm to SIF who in fact Alvina helped you rescue back when the world was still young imagine what SIF is feeling when you cross paths again years later you're duty-bound to seek the abyss and SIF is duty-bound to stop you one of you will have to die because SIF cannot give you the Covenant of artorias willingly maybe in death we can find his friend artorias again you Wow you that's really good actually holy [ __ ] yeah before I go I just want to say a couple more things firstly this video was made far far better by the contributions of a guy called the Perry God there is a recorded footage for me this time it allowed me to sort of focus more on the script and I can get it he's responsible like slow-motion shots which I didn't know how to do but they fit really really well with the pacing of the video so do me a favor and please go watch his cinematic short film on Dark Souls 3 because it's inspiring stuff he's just getting his channel started and his upcoming work is really well worth your subscription in my opinion and this is an appropriate video to shout out somebody else's channel in because all those years ago this video prepared to cry Artorius this was the story I decided to tell for the first time and this is the video that got my channel started so being able to work on this again after everything I've learnt was really special for me and I really appreciate that you watched it all the way through I hope you enjoyed it and I'll see you next
