Remnant 2 - Explained

in this video we'll be looking at gunfire games sequel to Remnant From the Ashes Remnant 2. Remnant is a third person roguelike shooter looter with RPG elements just like the first game there are large open areas which are pretty lore rich and plenty of World building and lots of dungeons to explore the bosses were again pretty punishing now these games are RNG random number generator which means that my playthrough could have gone a lot different to yours meaning that whilst you faced this boss here I may have faced this boss instead due to that we'll explore the basic outline of the plot and then look at the different worlds and the basic law around those worlds Please be aware this video is more to explode the storyline and there's not going to be a full deep dive into the story behind every single region boss and NPC character if you do want that kind of thing then I would suggest checking out quick tabs Channel he does a great job of explaining different law around different worlds and NPCs finally Please be aware that there will be spoilers for Remnant From the Ashes it's DLC subject 2923 and of course Remnant 2 as well with all that being said let's begin it's the 20th of June 1968 and the world has effectively ended but some small groups of survivors Remain the world itself has been destroyed by something called the root the route is essentially a race from another world that invaded Earth with the purpose of killing the last surviving members of humankind but how did this happen well before The Invasion scientists on Earth along with the military discovered ancient writings and something that would eventually come to be called the world Stone the writings themselves were somewhat deciphered and they spoke of ways to be able to connect humans to the worldstone research was extensively carried out inside Wards bunker type structures that were likely initially built for the coming of a potential War the connections to other worlds would allow these human subjects called dreamers to be able to virtually visit and go to these other worlds which of course had their own world stones and the scientists overseeing this project was a man called Dr urikh hasgaard Who was working out of Ward 16. harsgard was put in charge as he possessed a strange ability to be able to understand the runic writings you see all of the worlds except for Earth have what is known as a guardian and these dreamers would connect to the guardian one dreamer a subject called Gabriel was connected to a guardian which was the size of a planet and this Guardian was worshiped by the inhabitants of that particular world that was until they turned on the guardian it was here that the scientists realized that if the guardian is killed while the dreamer is connected then the dreamer will die as well after Gabriel's death the scientists attempted to connect another dreamer to the same world and found it overcome by the root who were hunting and killing all of the world's inhabitants it was then discovered that a world without a guardian makes that world extremely susceptible to root Invasion another dreamer a dreamer known as subject 2409 ended up connecting to well nothing at all little did they know that the dreamer had actually been connected directly into the route itself and to a being called clawbone this connection would serve as a way for the root to invade Earth and within a couple of years most of humankind was wiped out this brings us into the game Kronos before the ashes a century after the initial route invasion a young adventurer who was armed with a sword and shield set out to find and put a stop to the root to slay the dragon in the tower and to save Humanity the young Adventurer spoke with a tree and was instructed to kill three Guardians these Guardians were the guardian Cyclops the guardian of the pan in Yasha the god of many faces and the guardian of a place called The Labyrinth turns out that the dragon which had been imprisoned by the Guardians had tricked the young Adventurer into becoming the new Gateway for the route to remain on Earth this then leads into Remnant From the Ashes which takes place a month after the young Adventurer failed in their Quest another Adventurer would set out to try and find out what happened to the young Adventurer and to slay the dragon themselves the adventurer The Wanderer gets caught in a storm though in their boat crashes and The Wanderer comes across a man fighting off the root outside of Ward 13. The Wonder tries to help the man but the man is killed and the Wonder is quickly about to be overwhelmed some survivors from Ward 13 come to their aid though and they meet the commander of Ward 13 Ellen Ford she tells The Wanderer of her grandfather Andrew the founder Ford who had spent years researching and trying to stop the route until his sudden disappearance The Wanderer then sets out to try and find found a Ford their Journey takes them to many different worlds by use of the world Stone the Wonder eventually finds founder Ford in the world of yesha where he had been imprisoned founder Ford informs The Wanderer of award 17 which is inside a tower which itself is the location of 2409 the dreamer that connected directly to the root The Wanderer eventually realizes that the dreamer and the Gateway is now the young Adventurer that had set out a month earlier the dreamer pulls The Wanderer into their world to fight a root manifestation known as nightmare after defeating nightmare the tower collapsed and having escaped The Wanderer leaves and returns back toward 13 again with their Quest complete but it's not over as the roots still exist on Earth and this leads us into the remnant DLC a subject to 923 one year later The Wanderer visited Ward Prime an old laboratory which is home to two Realms the Earthly realm and another realm where hostile route enemies exist The Wanderer learns that hazgaard wasn't just head of the dreamer program but he became obsessed with sharing a connection with clawbone his obsession claimed the lives of more dreamers as these dreamers became unstable and driven to Madness leading to them attacking scientists the facility was then abandoned at the center of Ward Prime though was a portal which leads to a world called ryzen A World of strange creatures and Giants there The Wanderer meets a young woman named Clementine who is subject 2923 and she possesses a unique ability to destroy root infestations she has formed a strong bond between herself and the guardian of ryzen which brought Clementine to their world so she could help them defeat the root attackers the route however attacked ryzen again and the guardian passes its power to Clementine Clementine realizes the Earth is essentially a Nexus so it needs to be saved from the root otherwise the route can use it as a gateway to all other worlds so she reluctantly returns toward Prime with The Wanderer so they can put an end to the root shifting to the alternate realm Clementine creates a new portal which leads to somewhere different inside the portal The Wanderer comes face to face with harsgard who has now merged with the root and has taken a grotesque form The Wanderer defeats harsgard which cuts the roots or claw bones ties to Earth Clementine in The Wanderer returned to Ward 13 to a warm welcome but again more is to be done and this leads us into remnant 2. 20 years have passed since the route's connection to Earth was severed two Travelers won the game's protagonist along with their friend Cass are exploring the baron destroyed streets in search of a ward Cass is suffering from what is known as root rot and it's spreading it's treatable but she needs to have it seen too soon as they move on they talk about how they hope the people in the ward have items to trade otherwise the pair will not last long in the wild passing through a small Warehouse or what's left of it they find the damage by the route and its growths still there there are also root creatures Left Behind as well creatures Cass refers to as a dead wood eventually they're forced underground where they find a nest along with more root creatures The Traveler is impaled by a root creature and is Gravely injured they're about to be surrounded but they are aided by a ward 13 Survivor Beau who is the Ward's mayor along with Clementine who it appears had settled in Ward 13. Bo uses a healing item known as a Dragonheart to restore the traveler to full health again they follow their two two saviors and after making their way out of the sewers and fighting more root creatures including a tough root mantis variant they will make it to a safe area where Cass starts having a coughing fit clearly struggling with her root rot cat is taken to Ward 13 where she can hopefully recover it appears that since the wanderer helped banish and sever the root from Earth 20 years prior it's safe enough now for the survivor's award 13 to live outside again in the meantime while cast recovers the protagonist speaks with and meets people from the Ward on the way to meet founder Ford The Traveler over here is a heated conversation between founder Ford and Clementine the two clearly don't get on at all speaking with Ford Whom The Traveler figures is now over 100 years old it's revealed that his daughter Commander Ellen Ford has passed away also Ford needs the Traveler's help and tells him to meet him by the gate toward 13. in truth Andrew Ford is Immortal he gained this immortality through the use of the world Stone after getting told out the traveler meets fought at the gate in the end of the ward 13. the place is exactly as it was left then they see the world Stone again it's dormant has been shut down after the death of Dr harsgard but Ford uses the nearby terminal in a strange Cube and it comes glowing back to life Ford reminisces about the journeys that the world Stone gave him and tells the traveler to tell Beau to seal the door and to bury the place in a tomb of concrete Ford then touches the world Stone and gets pulled into some other world Clementine shows up and after the system announces that the core has been compromised Clementine is pulled into the stone by something The Traveler tries to prevent it from happening but to no avail The Traveler then attempts to go after her being pulled into the stone themselves okay so what happens next is completely randomized as the traveler can be pulled into one of three different worlds but I'll start with the world I've visited first yaisha you might recognize the name Yasha is the only world to have appeared in every single Remnant game even Kronos before the ashes it is home to a race of goat-like bipeds called the pan a lot of the law for Yoshi was established in the previous game but Yasha was once a lush vibrant Green Landscape with beautiful trees and lots of plant life it was home to at least two demigods by the name of mildri and her sister kaullah the pan societal hierarchy consists of pan nobility including the priests named the Lemire who bury the dead and pan commoners who tended to live among the Treetops the young Adventurer went there 20 years earlier and defeated the guardian of the pan the pan Guardian opening the world up to Invasion by the route now when the traveler arrives a situation regarding the route is a lot worse over the years the route had slowly taken over even the demigods were not safe as the demigod kaiula was taken by the route and corrupted again the RNG plays A Part here as the traveler is taken through one of two possible scenarios when the traveler arrives in Yasha they arrive at a site called The Red Throne The Red Throne is essentially the seat of power of the pan civilization and it is sat upon by the Eternal Empress reaching the throne room The Traveler speaks with the empress's assistant the pan are themselves mostly intolerant of anyone not of their race and they Harbor ill will towards any Outsiders they refer to the traveler as Paxil Tech which is a term for someone not of the pan they claim to know what the Traveler's goal is the empress's assistant speaks of the empress's immortality and speaks of bringing something sacred to the pan called the Nunya Tav back to the Eternal Court after they were cast into the abyss by the route so that they deserved can obtain immortality the assistant mentions an Abomination a corrupted Guardian which bedevils the empress they want the traveler to kill the Abomination and then they will help them with their goal it turns out that after the young Adventurer killed the pan Guardian all those years ago its rotting remains were overtaken by the route it's making a mockery of divinity so that's the driving force behind them wanting it killed by doing so they claim that it will bring peace and greatness back to Yeshua again now a little bit more is revealed if the traveler decides to decline the empress's request to kill the Abomination for her The Traveler fights the four pan Warriors protecting the empress and if they lose it will get thrown into a prison where they'll be held captive at this point the empress will reveal that she is not of the empress at all the assistant is the real Empress the empress's immortality is fading away due to the root Corruption of this Pan's sacred and mythical Thane tree she is therefore hiding her identity anyway should the traveler agree to the empress's request the traveler will leave the throne room and will eventually come across a pan musician the flotist he stops playing and tells The Wanderer about the God of many faces and mentions its demise at the hands of the other Paxil Tech who of course was the young Adventurer he then sends the traveler in the right direction in order to kill it the traveler after fighting their way through an area called The Widow's Court reaches the mythical thine tree indeed heavily corrupted by the root the deceased pan Guardian is there heavily corrupted and influenced by the route by way of an entity called corrupter the corrupter is effectively controlling the possessed pan Guardian despite its aggressive nature The Traveler defeats the corrupter and obtains something called a segment something that all powerful beasts hold in the alternate storyline when the traveler arrives in Yasha they immediately come into contact with a pan called Battle of the vaunt this particular pan leader is horrifically Afflicted with root rot and is covered in fungal growths according to battle of the Vaughn he was attacked a while ago and it started out as a small wound but then whatever Afflicted him just grew he thinks that the route which bedel calls the pestilence is keeping him alive but it doesn't know for what exactly so the vaunts had a duty to something known as the balance it's revealed that yesha is a world that really needs balance and a big part of that balance is due to something called the wolf and the red doe the wolf a spiritual being is referred to as the ravager who bedel refers to as the plague of the pan and the defiler of the dough you see the doe kept the wolf the ravager in check but has not been seen for a long time that balance was completely destroyed when the route invaded the Asia the root creatures now outnumber the pan themselves which my guess fits with the goals of the root to eradicate all life forms the ravager was overcome by the root and according to bedel has pledged fealty to the root the reason for this was that after The Wanderer defeated the ravager in combat 20 years prior after being left for dead the ravager swore allegiance to the root in exchange for saving its life you can guess what's coming yep The Traveler needs to kill the ravager so the traveler makes their way to the Lost Temple deep into the jungle of yesha they come across a water harp constructed by panluthias who are makers of musical instruments the harp was built in order to soothe the creature which was killing a lot of the pan populace after playing the song The Bridge extended inside the temple The Traveler finds the ravager's lair the last of your kind left me for dead that is when they found me and offered me there enlightenment blind was I until they opened my eye to the lies of permanence evil Empress Graves of fruit tries to guzzle immortality but all things die often gods this is a Mastery of death the all that is nothing and so I offer the choice they offered cup return to the ash from which we all came or break the Yoke of balance and become in Canada soul cannot be crossed without paying mature the LIE give you him you old daughter let's kill the doll I shall feel our Pact The Traveler has a choice here to kill the Joe as requested or to heal it causing it to run off during the first storyline if the traveler was imprisoned by the empress the empress's assistant reveals that after the pan Guardian spirit is freed from the corrupter the pan belief is that that spirit will use the red dough as the vessel but anyway there are two other variants here but they don't matter too much they just affect what reward you receive after the fight pertaining to the world Stone Again The Traveler is transported to yet another world [Music] the Labyrinth is essentially an ever-changing bridge between different worlds the founder Ford himself would use the Labyrinth to travel between worlds in his attempt to explore no one really lives there but nonetheless it did once have a guardian of course this Guardian was taken down and defeated by the young Adventurer although the guardian Was Defeated there were still remnants of said Guardian which defended the Labyrinth against the root their efforts were in vain though as after the death of the Guardian the root used the Labyrinth as a way to travel to and to invade other worlds this led to an entity known as The Keeper returning to the Labyrinth I say returning as the keeper is actually the one responsible for the Labyrinth the Keeper's return did come too late as aberrations had started to occur in The Labyrinth causing it to crumble The Traveler after traveling through the crumbling Labyrinth meets The Keeper who seems to be a very large eye entity Clementine is there too the keeper sees the traveler as a hostile threat and attempts to attack but Clementine stops it it's clear that the keeper was the one that pulled Clementine into the worldstone The Traveler pulls out the segment that they acquired from the previous world and the keeper takes an interest in it the keeper refers to the segment as a fail safe you see the Labyrinth exists but what also exists above that is a core the core is in danger of being corrupted by the root the segment itself is part of something called the index which can Purge the root corruption the keeper needs the traveler to acquire more segments by killing more powerful beings and two of them in fact the keeper then refers to Clementine as the utility the keeper gives the traveler a biome a special key which will open doors or portals to other worlds upon further conversation the keeper explains that Clementine Bears the nature of both the core and of Guardians speaking to Clementine she basically says thanks for coming to save me but I'm staying so the traveler leaves do one of the two portals alright so the root is essentially a massive construct a ship the size of a planet which is capable of inter-dimensional travel this ship was home to a race called the drazia a race which had survived for an entire Millennia the druzia were themselves made up of different classes if you like Seekers astropaths the Zuul the fetir and the ofildi with the latter being basically the Bottom Rung of society yet very crucial to the efficient operation of the druzia's goals as a race they were extremely technologically advanced and they had used this technology and biology itself in order to achieve their goals and to learn a vast amount about time and space but and there's always a but they could not even after twenty thousand years of searching no matter how hard they tried find any trace of life in the universe other than their own then the druzia discovered something called the seat of creation which was basically the center of the universe and inside it a supermassive black hole which was named Ellipsis Torah given that the drazier were hell bent on fixed stated on finding the meaning for life and Creation in general they theorize that all the answers to their questions lay within the black hole of Ellipsis Torah but there was let's say a split in opinion on the horizon of time the Ambit Amber will show me more but it will take time thankfully those who would face Ellipsis Torah are a minority have always trusted the intuition of the astropaths that is why we exists to see it you will not alter courts now a being called the custodian essentially a super Advanced AI believed that narud could survive the journey into the black hole whereas another drazier being talratha known as an astropath basically the person or entity guarding the drazia whilst excited about what they discovered tried to warn the druzia against this plan saying that narud would not be able to survive his journey but the custodian's plan was the chosen approach the Jersey had faith in their technology and this technology was used to manufacture stasis pods for the druzia these pods were supposed to protect them from the effects of the black hole I say suppose because it didn't go well talratha the custodian and a tiny number of drazier were pretty much the only survivors and the rest of the drazier transformed into zombie-like entities who were doomed to amble around the derelict construct they once called Home essentially time passes a little differently inside the black hole itself nerud was in the black hole for a hundred years except when the drazier exited the black hole billions of as it actually passed outside of it when the drazia entered the black hole the rest of the universe died of heat death there's more to it but we'll cover the smaller details as we go along but let's dive into the storylines as again there are two randomly generated storylines on the route The Traveler enters into an area on the route called Seekers rest there they find an item called a seeker's key its purpose is not yet clear but the traveler thinks that it seems important a little further into seeker's rest The Traveler encounters a huge mechanical floating eye the aforementioned custodian the AI speaks to The Traveler and tells him to head outside and to look for his Tower a tower with a glowing white light at the top heading outside the whole planet and ship is a Barren Wasteland a strange fog-like Mist covers large parts of the planet ship which when walked into by The Traveler causes them to vomit nonetheless traveler spots the tower in the distance and heads across the Wasteland avoiding various battle drones despite stiff opposition The Traveler reaches the tower and speaks with the custodian or rather the custodian's Avatar the custodian basically explains what happened in regard to narud while everyone is pretty much dead and about Alexis Torah of course the custodian is super excited to meet another life form anyway the custodian needs the Traveler's help naturally he wants to save narud and the drazir and to do that he needs full control of the functions of the ship it appears that the custodian wants to have another crack at Ellipsis Torah so to speak he wants to reattempt entry back into the black hole despite this being a terrible idea three keys are needed zika's Keys which open up a large door which is a path to the core of the ship control of the core was taken away from the custodian by The Seekers and they hid away their keys of course you'll remember that the traveler has already picked one of the keys up so more are required The Traveler goes either to a place called The Hatchery or to the a place called The putrid domain and fights one of two bosses and gets the key is here that the traveler sees the factory which was manufacturing the stasis pods and also with it the evidence of the failure of the pods which effectively killed drazier inside them the last key is in a place called astropath respite and again after more fighting the final key is obtained it's time to go to the Sentinels keep inside is an entity known as Shahala the spectral guardian of narud the traveler does battle with the Phantom and defeats it the powerful being drops an index segment and after a conversation where the custodian thanks The Traveler for their help the traveler leaves nerude in this storyline instead of arriving on the route of the seeker's rest The Traveler arrives by The Forgotten prison instead of speaking to the custodian The Traveler will speak to a mysterious entity who doesn't show themselves they asked the traveler to help the druzia by obtaining something called Soul Sparks which are contained within a cylinder The Traveler goes to a place called the Eon Vault and grabs the soul spark cylinder inside the cylinder are eggs moving and twitching these eggs prove that some of the druzia survived and have a chance at life meeting with the custodian the AI entity asks the traveler to defeat the aforementioned talratha the custodian believes that tal rather has within him a shining Essence echo which the custodian needs in order to save the drazir since the custodian believes that tal rather won't part with the echo willingly Force must be enacted in order to take it from him Upon returning to the Forgotten prison it's revealed that the voice that was speaking to the traveler earlier on belonged to Tel rather himself the soul Sparks give them to me lifetimes have I waited now I can rest knowing that everything left of my people is served for eternity I have created an ark to preserve what is left of the drazir though all of nerud will cease my Ark will endure and these Sparks will join the consciousness of the countless others Within thank you our faith is inevitable the custodian will return the route to Ellipsis Torah it will not emerge a second time so talratha wants to use himself as sort of an ark to preserve the drazia he also mentions that he once consumed a substance called Ambit Ember and this gave him the foresight to see the dangers of entering Ellipsis Torah hence why he tried to save the drazia talrata offers the traveler immortality by letting talratha eat them yeah really even if the traveler says yes a fight will ensue and the traveler will fight tal rather either in his spectral form or his physical one killing the Phantom will grant The Traveler dropped index segment as well as his shining Essence echo which the custodian wanted now in both storylines if the traveler decides to go back and give the custodian what he wants then he will drive nerud straight into the black hole his reason is of course that after they went into Ellipsis tourer the first time the time dilation effect meant that the Universe had basically ended there was nothing left so there was nothing left for them to do but enter into the black hole again it's not known what exactly happened to them but later on nurude is no longer visitable and there's no sign of the jersey and Alexis Torah either just nothingness [Music] in search of the last remaining segment The Traveler heads through the final portal in The Labyrinth and this leads them to a world called lassonne so lasom is actually the result of Two Worlds merging together but this isn't a union that created order and peace it in fact did the opposite creating chaos let me explain before the merging of the Two Worlds there was the world of the FAE and the world of the dran but for now let's look at the FAE the world of the FAE was ruled by the one true king Not only was he the king he was the guardian of the FAE he came about way before the creation of the faith themselves although they didn't show their face as much the majority of the face seemed to be more reminiscent Of Orcs goblins and fairies they sported really sharp teeth they likely hate the way they look hence why pretty much all of the mirrors in the palace are shattered and why the feyer dawn themselves in beautiful armor the one true king would write in his diary that the faith themselves are not fit to rule the reason was that they by their very nature are volatile beings built to destroy he even states that it's his duty to protect the world from the FAE the powerful winds leveled rocks and trees lightning turned fields to Ash After the Storm Out Of The Ash the Fey were born but their nature was there to see right from the start they hunted not out of need but for sport and they loved the Chase the king would nurture them and try to teach them to stand to speak and to dream but it didn't really work the king introduced the fated discipline and reward so the king ruled with an Iron Fist and would have the Fey live by a strict set of rules when in reality the fade preferred a more chaotic lifestyle there was prosperity in the Kingdom of the Faber only for some the ones who offered praise and fealty to the king so a plot was hatched to get rid of the wanchhu king an imposter essentially tricked the FAE Council into thinking that the one true king needed to go in order for the Fey to be free but the council had a rogue member who had their own Ambitions of leading the FAE the Fey itself did have two goddesses if you will an entity called nimue who is a Seer and was the counselor to the one true king and the other the night Weaver who was the goddess of sleep of course the king knew that the people around him were plotting even his scribe lay-wise would murder and plot thinking the King was none the wiser and the King decided to keep those he trusted the least nearest to him the truth is that numb away the king's Council was involved too she actually crafted the knife that was used to depose the one true king but as she claims she was deceived by The Imposter King the reason for crafting such a knife was due to the fact that due to the laws of magic mortal weapons could not harm the king so they deposed the king but didn't kill him as he was instead put into a deep sleep that he could not awaken from by the use of the knife and the Assassins was one of the members of the Faye Council the world of the dran however was an Elven world the dran were at one point like humans The Imposter King then took the throne and this led to a forced merging of these two worlds the dran entered into a hive mind-like State and were easily provoked into a frenzied State some of the dran population were not affected by the merging of the Two Worlds but these awoken dran as they were called were seen as troublemakers by the rest of the dran society and were punished for being outspoken against the chaos and confusion that the merger had caused lots of dram would lose their lives leading to their children being orphaned and ending up at the orphanage a refuge run by the Oracle of the dran there was also a drown Hunter aptly named the huntress who would turn against her own and hunt the dran for the FAE dran would be taken to the Fey Palace and would be sacrificed the Fey would sap the life force of the dran they literally consumed it but without the one true king there to rule the Fey were directionless the Fey roamed the halls of the castle and his banquet halls are filled with rotting food but as we did before let's jump into the first of the two storylines The Traveler steps through the portal and arrives at the beatific Palace first thing of note here is a massive ornate door which requires two reliefs in order to open it it seems that there are two reliefs the same King strange it's not long after a journey through the beautiful hallways that the traveler finds the first piece of the mural a golden mask bearing the face of the Imposter King fail in after fighting through more of the extremely hostile Fae in the basement The Traveler meets a Jester who after showing off their skull juggling skills produces a magic quill for the traveler this allows the traveler to fill in the pieces of missing portals and move through gateways into other areas a little while later The Traveler can come across the banquet hall there is rotting food everywhere and a very large person sits at the long table they state that they are celebrating the coronation of the new king he mentions what the food is the Flesh of an exotic and recently discovered creature he is of course referring to the dran but the man States two names Falin who we've already obtained the mask for and another name Farin when questioned in regard to this possible mistake the large man brushes it off if the traveler decides to partake in the feast the food turns out to be irresistible The Traveler also meets and speaks to numbue who tells the traveler The Imposter King needs to be dealt with and expresses her regret in what transpired in the deposition of the one true king later on after fighting the dangerous Magister Tulane The Traveler goes through a portal and enters into the malefic palace it's the same Palace but darker anyway the traveler finds the jester again this time the jester opens up five portals and stepping through the correct one will take the traveler to the second mask piece feyron returning to the ornate door The Traveler places the two masts into their respective slots and the large door opens a lever takes the traveler between both versions of the palace they speak to the Imposter King it turns out that there are two kings sort of the merging of the Two Worlds also caused a split with the Imposter King creating two individuals out of one The Traveler speaks with failin they mentioned that they are looking for powerful beings failing claims that there's an imposter that plagues him he is speaking about fair in his other half so to speak felian who claims he's the true ruler of the FAE he's assuming the traveler doesn't know about the one true king being deposed he wants fair and dead and offers to compensate The Traveler for the deed naturally there's two sides to every story so the traveler also goes and speaks to feyron feyron is pretty rude but he offers the same thing compensation for taking out fail in as he also claims to be the true king both of them are powerful beings so the traveler can of course choose which one to kill in my place where I chose to take down feyron because well he was just rude even after taking the Imposter down looking into the floor reveals the other half of Farin is still alive I'm not sure what this means in the grand scheme of things and the future of the Fey realm but the traveler has another segment and that brings this storyline to a close so who is the Imposter I mean theorized that it could have been the king's scribe lay wise a man the king describes as his closest Confidant who the king knew wanted to destroy him and take his place the traveler can also step through the Labyrinth portal and end up in the morrow Parish District of lassonne which is home to a nearby Asylum but the gate is changed shut trying to find a way around the Travelers finds the streets are filled with dran who are extremely hostile but of course they have been influenced into their frenzy-like rage after a perilous Journey Through the sewers of lasome home to vicious aberrations such as Bargas the vile and the bloke King The Traveler makes it to the backyard of the Asylum the Asylum itself is home to drown of a particular Madness after the merging of the dran and Fey worlds it was this that sent the majority of the dran crazy on a side note there was a local Man by the name of hudus who is in charge of the clock tower but the clock had special powers one night when the dran were being attacked by some Bandits hudus Clock Tower to help build defenses but the clock just stopped and time stopped with it literally the villagers in lasom had all the time they needed in order to build their defenses whoever wrote this letter spoke of beasts or demons attacking the villagers and they think that the clock is what drew them so the Cog was removed from the clock and again time Stood Still the Cog was then hidden somewhere anyway back to the Asylum The Traveler finds out that the asylum's staff were experimenting on their dran subjects there's a reason that they think these dran are crazy though in the notes we just looked at it spoke of the village of militia not being able to see the FAE which obviously led the villagers that could see the Fey being thrown into the Asylum being considered mad creature awesome everywhere not much bigger than a dream but full of rings but I mean no problem nothing happened at all after Urban today I don't know what happens to any obviously talk about what we see or we know patients on the asylum's ward speak of the night Weaver a conversation with one particular patient reveals something interesting one particular patient Orville would go up to the top floor and draw pictures and one day Orville managed to escape the asylum on the top floor of the Asylum The Traveler can indeed see Orville's drawings he was trying to draw portals but eventually he managed to draw one and used it to escape in the basement of the Asylum which contains padded cells The Traveler speaks with the head doctor Dr Morrow who's been locked up and is crying she too mentions the night Weaver goddess Norway's sister goddess of sleep well the night we were corrupted by the merging of the Two Worlds has been causing havoc and has been terrorizing the dran feeding upon nightmares and fear as well as the life force of the dran morrow says that she was locked up by the staff after she spoke about seeing the night Weaver and the night Weaver has been terrorizing her while she sleeps she's been trying to finish a sculpture of the night Weaver but none of the ones she did were accurate Maura who's left carved dolls around the Asylum The Traveler collects three of them and gives them to her her hope was that seeing them might spark her memory of what the night Weaver looked like the traveler enters the doctor's cell but there was no one inside she'd been busy though sculpting the dolls trying to remember what the night Weaver looked like she did it she did manage to sculpt one accurate to the appearance of the corrupted sleep goddess The Traveler goes through a portal into the Fey Palace and speaks with Norway who tells a traveler that he's been hunted by the night Weaver the night Weaver was corrupted when the Two Worlds merged together in order to hunt her first The Traveler must collect the heart of one of her most recent victims in order to travel to her realm in order to kill her turns out the night Weaver is actually no Morey's sister once beautiful but now horribly distorted due to the evil that now consumes her nomwei then sends the traveler to the night Weaver's hunting grounds basically the dran village in order to retrieve the heart this place is chaotic the situation here along with most the areas of the village is pretty bleak as it appears the dran have been slaughtered in large number by the Fey and the buildings have been set alight the streets take the traveler to the buffet palace again and they face off against the ever-intimidating Magister Delane The Traveler interrupts the night Weaver with one of her victims and she disappears this victim was the aforementioned Orville who ended up in the Fey Palace The Traveler manages to get Orville's heart and travels back to the Asylum there is a strange web and the traveler places the heart onto it they are then transported to the night Weaver's realm The Traveler soon meets the night Weaver and after tough battle the night Weaver is taken down and she drops the final segment needed for the index time to head back to the Labyrinth [Music] traveling back to the labyrinths in a sanctum The Traveler speaks with the keeper who has now revealed his true form he again reiterates that despite his efforts the route festered and grew Beyond his sight and has corrupted the core of the labyrinth after the guardian was slain by the young Adventurer turns out that the keeper purged the Labyrinth expunging realm after realm in the hope that it would restrain the rot but he was too late only now he says a new solution has been revealed the keeper merges the three segments together to make the index the keeper then goes on to state that with the index two probabilities emerge first that the route wins and the second while he doesn't actually mention the second you see the route is everywhere but the keeper states that it originates from a single Source a single realm only when the roots spread the daughter of that particular realm was closed even to someone as powerful as the keeper but with the newly formed index the keeper can subvert their defenses making it possible to purge the corruption meaning that they can kill the root over time a conversation with Clementine reveals that she is connected to the keeper and they now have a bond foreign The Traveler steps into what seems to be an alternate version of Earth a parallel universe if you will it's very corrupted by the root and is teeming with roots monsters and creatures despite this The Traveler battles their way through them all and eventually reaches the source at a place called The blackened Citadel some kind of force field is stopping the traveler from progressing but Clementine shows up with the keeper she says that the traveler needs to win or it's the end of everything Clementine then uses her powers to break the force field which significantly weakens her The Traveler then comes face to face with the source an entity called Annihilation the fight switches between a physical world there on root Earth and a bizarre digital world not only that but it seems that Annihilation was actually being controlled by what could have been a dreamer despite the strength of the Ferocious entity The Traveler comes out Victorious The Entity is not quite dead but it seems the keeper is unsure about something he thinks their efforts are all futile again he mentions the first probability that the route wins or consumes all but stop short of the second probability again we're about to find out why the keeper mentions that the corruption is inviolent this basically means that the root cannot be harmed the containment isn't really an option it's time for that second probability Annihilation essentially to eradicate the corruption the system needs to be restored to wipe everything and to start over again the route is just too powerful and will destroy everything the keeper is reluctant to carry it out but Clementine comes up with another option she grabs a segment from the keeper and runs toward the root entity she emits a powerful beam of light from her body powered by the index segment Annihilation makes One Last Stand to try and preserve itself but to no avail the effects of what just happened are felt throughout all Realms in Ward 13 people are disappearing but not just in Ward 13 everywhere the psalm yesha and the rude all of these people from all Realms are being transferred into Clementine not just the lives and memories but the Realms too and then the traveler as well is making a sort of backup of Everything All That Remains in the black void is the index the keeper approaches but walks away and then the index fires up and all the data inside of it comes out slowly piece by piece the Realms the people in it are restored as they once were before the route took hold including the crumbling Labyrinth The Traveler wakes up in the field and the game then ends [Music] the drive and the route is a virus the keeper was insinuating that a sister needed to be restored he meant literally that rebooting the universe and all of existence from scratch not even knowing whether Earth would even exist in this new reality what happened instead was that Clementine effectively became a hard drive for all the living souls and that and herself restored it on the index then the index spattered out back onto a freshly installed version of the universe if you will essentially what she was doing was backing up all of the data she wanted to keep erasing the root corruption making a fresh copy of the universe unfortunately still with the damage caused by the route and reinstalled all of that data onto the new universe effectively restoring everything think of it as restoring your computer to the way it was at a previous time and date Clementine by doing this has locked the universe into a sort of time Loop which explains the Traveler's ability to from a law standpoint at least re-roll campaigns in the different worlds this is also something hinted at by the Oracle of the dran she is stitching a quilt which features patches corresponding to The Traveler having dealt with something in Los arm such as fighting the night Weaver and helping various people and solving Mysteries she mentions run throughs and all the patches can't be done on a single run through and she sees everything and this revolutes to re-rolling different campaigns again I guess this somewhat makes sense as to why root Earth was so corrupted that was essentially the real Earth the original core world of the AI simulation they now live in the Earth free from the root was actually a digital copy conversations with mud tooth lead to him telling a story where he actually met the keeper he was in The Labyrinth at one point The Remnant World itself appears to be some sort of trans-dimensional Multiverse a patient in the moro Asylum talks about everything shifting around them and a change the core of the labyrinth is literally that the core Universe with extensions of it which make up the worlds and other Realms some theories speculate that the Labyrinth itself could have been built by some super Advanced alien race the keeper himself could have been one of those aliens and when the root invaded Earth the keeper made a backup of Earth if you like he did this in order to quarantine the route on root Earth the real Earth and then transferred everyone and everything to the new Earth if that makes sense it is confusing I'm not sure if I was a fan of the ending if I'm completely honest that everything was potentially just a simulation one thing we know from playing the games is that a few people are actually Immortal found a Ford was a mortal Clementine was Beau was The Wanderer wasn't also The Travelers Immortal now too the whole data backup thing explains how this could be a possibility due to the fact that the world Stone itself was a sort of data point it's confusing at the moment but hopefully a DLC will shed more light the ending left a lot of questions what would the traveler waking up in what could be a different world entirely again hopefully a DLC will be coming soon to answer more questions such as what happened to founder Ford but that's it for this video if you did enjoy this one then please leave a like And
