She is an extremely complex character, but at the end of the day, she's just a lonely immortal trying to save people that are dear to her and protect the innocent. Just an immortal that has suffered too much from time and hates seeing the people suffer for something they did not do. Rhodes Island is the only thing left that binds her together, if one day Rhodes Island and everyone dies because of some reason, she might snap or just give up on having close connections ever again.
@@keisenshishigo5173 now that i think about it, will she ever die for real? Not even oripathy can kill her, man i'm starting to feel real bad for her....
@@dannyfuerts8239 You probably haven't read the whole story, she played the simp, but is actually closer to a student, just not the medical kind but for the information gathering and scheming side of Kal'tsit.
A little backstory: I actually started playing Arknights _because_ of Kal'tsit. I was randomly browsing YT one day and happened to see the CN Announcement for Under Tides. I loved the atmosphere and music presented in the trailer and found Kal'tsit's design (and Mon3tr's) fascinating. So I gave Arknights a try. Ever since, she has steadily cemented herself as my favorite character. Her caring-yet-calculating nature and tactical acumen flow together with her potentially millennia spanning age to create a unique presence in the story that is simultaneously inspiring and tragic. If the Doktah sees the battlefield as a chessboard, then I would like to think of Kal'tsit as the one who wrote the rules. From her presence in the Campaign, to cameos in side stories and even an event that places her center stage, these all show only the briefest of glimpses into the epoch tapestry of her story. Though I think that is the point, as it reveals how even a decades-long conflict is only the briefest of stops on Kal'tsit's long, lonely road. Also the theme for AWitD is absolutely kickass and I love it. Cheers everyone and have fun! ^_^
@@govinlock8568 Thank you fellow Doktah! Cheers. ^_^ Assuming that UT directly follows, I can likely manage ~200 pulls total before the event ends, accounting for everything. (Whaling notwithstanding.) So, while that isn't the ideal 300, I do hope that will be sufficient. Even better if UT happens to be pushed back, then I'll just continue to add to my Lynx Doctor Fund.
Intresting, I only got into arknights when there was a rainbow six 6 collab with this game. It was my first time seeing it and I did see some ads about it though ads didn't help on how it was delivered. (The ads for arknights really sucks. Those that know about arknights infamous terrible adds than the trailers know this.) Though I was skeptical about why would they do a collab with arknights, a game i have no knowledge or haven't heard of it I didn't bother about it until a friend of mine in siege told me about Tachanka being in the game. That caught my interest as Tachanka is my Main/Meme/ Favorite guy to play as doing some casually unranked game. That's when I started checking arknights and found out the story very intriguing and intresting. I started after arknights somewhere near twilight womble. I have to be honest, I have no knowledge how the fu ck to do with my ops and have to look at guides on youtube how to beat stages since well... i kinda invest poorly when started out and I didn't know the reroll one. But I do remember my first 6 star ops, actually two for my first 10 pull. Those are SilverAsh and Angelina. Plus like all bug newbies, I didn't invest Anelina only until CC2 when I learn more about her skill. Not only that I didn't invest Vanguard at the time since i though they were weak and useless and focus on guards and defeneders and snipers. Than I got Suzuran during the event and E2 her immediately since her SK3 can heal,buff attack, and slow the enemy and i thought this is way better that Angelina (again i was a noob at that time). Only after the end of the year did I finally got my head together and started which op to invest, which lvl an E2 op can last long and which Class im lacking of. Currently Casters are the only one im lacking of since I can't decide who to pick and only have E2 eyjafjalla since someone told me she's a good burst damaged. Other than that I like the game lore story and all othet stuff, but the only thing I regret I started late, since I have this obessesion to get every medal. Sadly CC 0 and CC 1 (forgotten some) will be the only incomplete medals I will never get since it's a one time only. CC0 I Pass late and CC 1 I have poor choice of op to get event an SSS rank and other medals. Anyways that's how I got into arknights, A collab event I didn't know of a game I have 0 knowledge of. If that collab didn't happen or my friend didn't mention it, I will probably have overlook and think it another cash grab gacha games since I play Feh (Fire Emblem Heroes) and Dragalia before.
Another great video! This gigantic chunk of information helps shed some light on Kal'tsit, a character who might be thought of as a "perfect character with no flaws". Perhaps she is a living example of "cursed with immortality", but where she simply does not die of age. If she were a true immortal, she wouldn't be afraid of any harm. When one dies in a good timeline, they'll die with the knowledge that everything will get better from that point onwards. With immortality, this is not possible - all good things come to an end after all. Reality reveals itself and Kal'tsit is confronted with a plethora of dilemmas she has too little control over in the grand scheme of war, conflict and disease. Because she's familiar with everything, she definitely has a high number in the age sector - Patriot knows her for a very long time and clearly states that her looks have not changed at all. He himself is as old as 200 years and he met her at a young age, so it's safe to say she's at least a few hundred years old? How about more examples? - knowledge of numerous languages, including Aegirian and ancient Sarkaz dialects; someone like Kal'tsit definitely has the time and capacity to cram on studies as these - what exactly do the Emperor's Blades do, to the point of being able to tell their presence from black snow alone; when she knew Pursuer was coming, I'd imagine that deep down she reacted like "damnit, again?!" - was she in other shenanigans prior to her employment in Westin Security? with her wisdom, she sure as hell looks like it This gets worse with time. She comes across more things she can't stop or she makes a bad decision on. At this point, I like to think that Rhodes Island is what keeps her going. By the end of Chapter 8: - she is honoring Theresa's promise by keeping Amiya and the Doctor safe.* - she can now honor Lillia's promise to take care of Louisa and shape her into a good doctor - she has her first true surrogate daughter in the form of a red-hooded wolf, Projekt Red - she continues to defy those by the likes of Loken by harboring kitties like Rosmontis - she convinced Lyudmila to ditch Reunion, herself doing it by going back to Siracusa. now i wonder, why did Kal'tsit bring her to Siracusa in the first place? Hypergryph makes themselves a lot of ground to build stories for later - the means to continue her eternal ambition from a comfortable place... for now. Kal'tsit has proven herself some insightful character development as the lore built itself to what WitD brought us. One more thing, when the Sarkaz mercenaries spare 3 for "questioning", we clearly see one of them ask the casters to "grill" them. I'm not sure what worse, burning them for fun or literally crisping them so they can eat those three? If the latter can be true for some Sarkaz, does that imply a disturbingly unique diet? Anyways, stay awesome brother. And thank you for the long video!
The question of her age is actually a really interesting topic we need to explore more at a later point, and you are definitely right at the „hinting at other plots part“, they have set up like ten more events within her story Cheers for adding that comment!
Not sure if you are joking about the grilling or not. Grill has been used as a term for intense questioning for a long time now. Although it came from the cooking sense it has no connection with eating or torturing for fun.
@@bigbob5797 no worries mate, I probably picked it up in school where the teachers would grill us for answers, or at home when parents would grill me about where I was all night.
Nothing screams badass like summoning a familiar monster made your own bones and able to create an poison that not even Ursus tech is able to discover it's contents.
As for that particular promise Kal'tsit continues to keep, we get a part of it in the infected PV and more of it from Kal'tsit's Promotion Record. (wiki's fan translation, subject to change) "When you see this letter, everything would have ended. I hid the letter in your desk without second thought. If you haven't sat down to think of your past quietly, you can't find this letter. These are for you in the past. ...Do you still remember the theories you've taught me? I still remember. You say the earth is not infinte; it's only a pile of dirt on the vast sphere. You say our bodies aren't created innately; we crawled before we've learnt to walk. You say the skies are like the ground, as both of them are rafts drifting in the sky... I remember them all, Kal'tsit. You said, you want to know the answer about yourself apart from the meaning of what we do; you once asked me what we've entrusted within this ship, and why I cared about it so much. I think my answer is childish, so I have never answered it directly. ...Kal'tsit, I can feel your loneliness. You are lonely because you think you have nothing similar to others. Kal'tsit, my answer is, I wish that Rhodes Island becomes your home. I've once thought to see the future with you together. But loneliness has no cure, being astray has no end, and cancer cannot be cured... I've did what I can do. I won't fret on my result. The mission of Babel ended, while you and your ship has just started its journey. Now, go find the answer to your own question. After a long, long night, Rhodes Island will face the new dawn. The future gliding on the soft ground belongs to you all. I am not one of you, Kal'tsit. I cannot solve your problems. -But I am your friend. Always. Her Highness once said, Dr. Kal'tsit is the one hosting the final excavation of the ship. But now, we sometimes will see her running past the corridors, stop suddenly, and feel the walls with her hand. We still don't know what this ship means to Kal'tsit." It can't be Arknights without pain and suffering. *sad noises*
God, I'm really excited for this video, 37 minutes of lore injected into my veins. I really like Arknight's plot, characters and other stuff the game has to offer, and the best part the lore keeps getting deeper and deeper, I really wonder what the endgame will look like, hype!
And with that event it got much deeper than ever before, there were countless little comments on places, events and people, it’s mad! And the end game will be us stopping Amiya from becoming Arknights-Cthulhu and turning everyone into Dust
The thing that surprised me is that kal'tsit is still sane after everything that happened in her life. her story is just so sad everytime she found the good in humanity, humanity itself betrays her but again and again she found the goodness in it, truly a never ending cycle. Imo a good ending for kal'tsit is just to let her die in peace. But considering Arknights, that doesn't seem possible. Great video on shining the light of her story! Not everyone have the patience's to read the stories inside the game. Thank you for the video.
True! Depending on how old she actually is, I can imagine her going through a mental struggle like that after the first century or so actually Also please don’t make her die
I think I heard somewhere that Kal'tsit saw Patriot leaving Kazdel for Ursus. Also, Old Isin mentioned from his last dream to Elliot that he saw someone that looks very similar to Kal'tsit.
You are right, Patriot and her knew each other personally, however I didn’t want this video to be a loose collection of facts, so I only took the stuff we could piece together into one continuous story
One of my favorite things about Kal'tsit is how her story is presented. We don't sit down in multiple events with Kal'tsit and learn of her that way, but rather other characters get events and interact with her, and you have to piece her story together from that. She is the most involved and storied character in the game and it comes from her presence in other people's lives.
I don't quite understand Kal'tsit's decision to keep one daughter in Ursus while sending another to Siracusa. I keep imagining what'd happen if Louisa and Lyudmila were raised like sisters and recruited into RI together.
If I had to make a guess, I'd say for security. I imagine as they got older the potential for people to connect them back to the massacre and start asking questions of how they ended up together and who put them there. RI or even Babel wasn't even an idea yet and it's not like she could've carried them along on her journey. Therefore she makes the decision to split them up just to be safe and hope they have normal lives without being dragged back into the mess.
Arknights lore is really something look forward into. it's world building and the relevance of characters to the storyline and to each other is something special,kal'tsit backstory is more than enough to create her own Anime, Imagine what would HG give us once they start to focus on Dokutahs lore ( I hope we get to know priestess) which is arguably more enigmatic than our Acient Nekomimi Waifu with spinal issues. Anyway great video as always, hope you keep doing this videos!!!
You are so right dude! The best part is how Kaltsit‘s story is directly intertwined with the stories of so many other characters as well, Passenger, Crownslayer, Red and so many more
Amazing summary and deep dive into Kal'tsit This must've taken a lot of effort to put together so thank you so much! I always looks forward to seeing your lore videos in my subscription feed, and I'm so excited to learn more about Kal'tsit as the story continues ^_^
same - I was actually checking my feed for this video because I was a bit confused of some of the stuff that was said in the event- but now things make much more sense.
One of the things I loved of this event was the introduction of Demons... which promptly produced more questions than answers as per usual with AK lore. However, they explained one thing I was always curious about: what delimited the territories of Terra's map? rather, what was in those black blocks? It wasn't water, as we know few people have seen an ocean, let alone know what they are. It wasn't mountains or barriers a la AoT, since no one had never mentioned such a thing. So what was stopping the people from Terra to go there? Now, we have an answer, Demons. Whatever they are, it needed enormous armies to drove them away, and mere fragments are enough to power up one of the strongest enemies we have ever fought in the game. So while their introduction was brief, the impact they will have on the lore will be big. And I for once can't wait to know more about them.
@@QaiserMLG as so many of the countries on Terra are based on colonial era Earth nations a simpler reason for not conquering the unexplored regions is because there are no known resources there to control. Exploration costs money so there would need to be bored aristocrats in a time like the Age of Discovery or known resources (discovered through secondary trading), or resource scarcity (to push populations out) which doesn't seem to be a major theme in the game so far (scarcity due to war is different).
I only started playing Arknights recently and the first event I had access to was A Walk in the Dust. Considering how little progress I had made in the main story, following what was happening in the event was very difficult and confusing, so this video definitely helped put things into perspective.
Since they announced her in the CN live, I am saving for her. I am saving every single thing that can be used to headhunt. I was never this determinate before for an Arknights character. Edit: The day come. Her banner is out and I got her from less than ~48 000 Orundom. 🥺 She came home as the 2nd 6* on the banner. My first 6* pull was Eunectes.
I saw some videos telling the story of the event and I thought that I knew everything. Now I know that I knew nothing till this moment. Thank you very much for this long ass video. I am really satisfied by it. Because of a language barrier and writing style it's really difficult to read the story from the source and you were always a big helper. I really appreciate the effort you put in making such videos and hope that you will keep it up that way.
Great video, really enjoyed it. One thing I would have mentioned was Old Isin's dreams, especially the last one about him seeing Kalt'sit beside the Padishah during the conquest of the Foehn Hotlands, which supposedly happened one thousand years ago, iirc, as said by Kalt'sit herself. At this point it's clear Kalt'sit is extremely old, or maybe she can travel to specific moments in history (kinda like the singularities in fate/GO ig). Whenever she talked about history events in a walk in the dust, it really seemed like she experienced them in first person, even though she was implying all the things she knew came from history records. In addition the fact she can speak so many languages and also ancient sarkaz makes her even more mysterious and interesting as a character. Whatever her real background is, I just hope I'll live long enough to see Kalt'sit's secrets finally be revelead lol
You are right, however at that point I had to leave out certain parts of the story, because the video would have just been too long The things I left out, like the question of her age, will then be discussed in separate videos
@@QaiserMLG yeah I completely understand that some things have to be cut out, it's just the whole dream situation was one of the most fascinating thing in the event for me and I was curious on your take, but overall it's not that important to understand Kalt'sit's story. Looking forward to your theories in future videos cause you always come up with really intriguing ideas lol
I only recently got back to the game and your lore series is exactly what I need to re emerge myselfe in to this detalied world and to catch up on all things I missed.
@@QaiserMLG Thanks my dude, the only thing I regret is that I left the game. Can't wait to hear the next episode of the lore series. p.s. Did you notice that Kal‘tsit has heart-shaped pupils in her maid outfit on the main event art 😏
Thank you so much. I started to read through the entire lore in-game just to hype myself for her arrival(memory of a goldfish, so need to do it everytime) but I'm happy that I don't have to spend days trying to just read lore
Been waiting for your next video for a while, and this video just blows all my expectations away in a 37 minute bomb. Arknights honestly has better lore than a lot of anything I've ever read or watched, and it's great to know that there are RUclipsra like yourself willing to bring us the lore in well made videos like these. Looking forward to the next one and all you're future videos. Thanks, and as you say, Cheers!
Folonic never learning to say Papa, now that cuts deep Well done, well done, this story is by far so interesting it almost feels like I'm listening to a serial podcast. I skip the cut scenes but I'm so blessed that you could tuck me in with such a trilling tail.
Thanks a lot fam, my English vocabulary only help me understand a partial of the story, and your explanation really fill in the gasp for not only Walk in the dust, but many more events and main story
My theory is that the Ursus Empire is possibly the last villain in Arknights. Rhodes Island will probably fight the Reagent and take back Kazdel from Theresis, then Amiya will claim the Throne. After successfully taking Kazdel, they will wage war against the Ursus Empire to end it's reign of terror against the infected onçe and for all. Knowing that this is Arknights I'm not really sure if we will get a happy ending, they can even gave us a tragic ending. Our beloved operators like Blaze, Ch'en or even Amiya might die during the war. A bitter sweet ending is more possible, like we will win but a lot of lives will be sacrificed in the process including some famous Rhodes Islands operators.
@@QaiserMLG I don't know about that because Ursus Empire treat the infected worse than trash. Kazdel in my opinion won't be the final villains, they are potential allies since majority of the Sarkaz race are infected.
@@QaiserMLG I kinda agree with his theory too. The empire treat the infected worse than livestocks like working them on mines and then letting them to die suffering from oripathy. Uniting Kazdel makes more sense because the Sarkaz race are mostly infected.
@@QaiserMLG Ursus always had bad reputation when it comes to how they oppress the infected. I think bringing down a huge Empire would be the ultimate challenge for us. As of now Kazdel is not as strong as Ursus, there's no way Kazdel can take on the Ursus Empire. The possibility of Ursus becoming our ally is pretty low in my opinion.
Qaiser MLG, I'm loving your work so far. Your voice is uniquely interesting, goes well with the story telling hahhaa. I been watching or listening to you talking about Arknight Lore for a while and thought... just how much more lore is there in the game lol
Well glad you like my voice, cause I don’t LMAO But since you’re asking: I have a 11 page word document filled with video ideas, theories and what not, so we’re definitely covered for now hahaha
I hope in the future we can get a operator that's from the Ursus Royal guard of the Emperor's blade, idk how it would work because they are really loyal to Ursus, but it will be cool if we did.
thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, wow!! its so great! i read the story but didnt understand anything (its quite lengthy and they use complicated words and english is not my first language-) so this really REALLY helped. Kal'tsit is such a great character
When you find out about the her backstory as well as learning about the parents of some of the operators, or enemies, you learn about why she comes off as so strict while being in her position. The whole thing with her, Red and Crownslayer hits a little more. Also wouldn't it be amazing if Closure was the child of those two studen we don't know about?
This was a massive and very well-detailed video of Kalt'sit story on this event and I would say you did a very good job Qaiser on explaining and narrating us about her lore.I read the whole story but its just that the other thing doesn't make sense to me at all especially the small parts and you help me understand it clearly. Thank you very much
Once I heard the name "Tkaronto", Toronto's indigenous name, I realized that the devs have actually done an insane amount of research to build up this world, the lore, and each individual character's story. My respect for them just went up even more, I didn't think that was possible! Thank you as well for compiling all of this, love these kind of videos! 👏👏
The great thing about some of her extreme old lore is it predates Arknights itself. Her being an unimaginably old being that works to protect and heal others was her original lore back when all she was, was an OC of Lowlight/Umineko, the creator of Arknights.
At first i came to this game, all i know is just riots everywhere Now when i came into the lore deeper, the story just keep dropping, along with my brain that can't comprehend the story due to it's complexity and much much more, god this is confusing but interesting
Thank you so much for this video Qaiser. I have trouble understanding the lore sometimes and oh boy is this some juicy lore i want to know. It also brings so many questions to mind. How did the doctor "kill" theresa? Just how old is kal'tsit? Why was kal'tsit so 'loyal' to ancient sarkaz and kazdel? Hypergryph GIVE US MORE LORE!!
Solid content as always dude. Thanks for this rather organized timeline of Kal...and that really heightened my respect for her. Although not my waifu, she's indeed one type of a friend I would have for life, and Theresa is so lucky to have her. (Wish I could have one irl---no cap.) Not even that, as someone who wants to venture into science shit myself, she's kind of a role model to me. I really do hope by the time her banner pops out, I could manage to recruit her and read more into her own files rather than guessing who she is. Aaaand most of all, thanks Andrean---Lowlight-sama for making his own OC non-limited. At least it's an insurance that Kal can spook us anytime.
I agree with what you’re saying, even outside her being my Waifu I see her as a kind of comfort character, in the sense of with her being around things won’t go wrong and she’s gonna have your back
@@QaiserMLG She even seems to be the type to slap you with reality but then supports you in your endeavors and decisions as long as these won't harm ya. True gem of a friend. ✨
as someone who recently started playing the game, ive missed a lot of events and the storyline and lores are all over the place. This is perfect for me and I'm loving it, kal'tsit is def one of top favs now
First of all, let me express my thanks for the awesome video as always Qaiser. Thank you. Second of all, The whole story behind kal'tsit was quite a mystery to me, where she started, why she acts like that and what's her objective, other than to save the human civilization or what not. Lastly, I wasn't sure what happened before the main story, i just knew we woke up from the sacrophagus and got put in all of this weird shit, but thanks for the clearer explanation of how we were covered in blood when theresa death happened, and kal'tsit just had to put us in a sacrophagus for healing, jump a few years later , we're here. Keep up the wonderful work as always!
She really has been through a lot, and the fact that she downright hates the Doctor's guts really must've put her on the tipping point. Though I have high hopes for this game to continue into the far future, unfortunately in Arknights fashion, all good thing must come to an end. I don't know what happened between her and us, but I feel like that would end Arknights (or the Arknights story) if it ever got to that point. I wouldn't be surprised if Arknights would ever to shut down its servers, the main story would end up with the Doctor dying, then have Kal'stit continuing her journey across Terra.
If we don't get at least her attire of Sargon as an Epoque skin I would be very surprised and bummed out. I was always interested in Kal'tsit, but this event made her spring to the top of the list of characters I really like and we still know basically nothing about her. How old is she actually, how is she alive that long with an infection, how did she get that infection, what is her actual origin story and not least, what happened during all these year long gaps in her story (and how the hell did she know of the secret ritual of the emperor's blades, including an actual 'demon') (Also another interesting character is Heidi, she impressed me a lot with her playing the pampered rich kid, while secretly being more in the know than all the lords at the party, wouldn't be surprised if we see her as an operator in the future, maybe a flagbearer or other vanguard type once we get more into Victorias Secrets. xD)
Any chance you might do a lore deep dive on the Emperor's Blade? Eveything Kal'tsit said about him, his powers and how he is able to be, suggests a far more deeper and darker lore.
This was a very good side story, not only do we get to know Kal'tsit better but I especially enjoyed the greater lore they hinted at involving the lands outside of settled society and the monsters/demons that live there. I hope we get more on them soon, since mon3tr and the emperor's blades demons show how very powerful they most be. Also based on how old she is I wonder if she is one of the immortals like Kashchey? I gained a new appreciation for Kal'tsit from this side story and the video was great as always.
I thought Doktah's high tech coffin would have some form of securities to prevent people poking it but nope i guess. I also want to think that Amiya is a genetic modified child of Therasa and our helmet dude. Hot damn Kaltits adventures are wild.
As someone (Credit to Ritwik G.) in another video (this one ruclips.net/video/bZqOYWozoMs/видео.html), has this theory: Terra might have been a world that was being terraformed by a space faring civilization but something happened to that civilization and the terraforming went haywire causing catastrophes and Originium disasters to happen. Following this theory, Kal'tsit might have been one of the original settlers that somehow attained immortality and now is trying to essentially fix the world (or try to). From here on is my opinion: The above theory is supported by the fact that seems to know the history of Terra rather intimately like she was there when it happened and the fact that she doesn't seem to age at all (plus Monst3r which is essentially a biomechanical defense system of sorts.
Oh man, something worth mentioning btw, someone on reddit pointed out that in the WD background (where all of Kal' outfit is located) in where she has the maid outfit, she has heart-eyes which is the hottest fucking thing in the game.
You know this makes me excited for Kal'tsit's REAL backstory. Like we learned A LOT about her yet I feel like everything is way too superficial. We learned in the event Kal gets involved in a lot political conflicts around the world just because she wants to but we don't know why. Does she feel responsible for the fate of the world because she is inmortal? If so why is she inmortal? How old is she? Is she related to the demons? How acient is she relatively to modern terra? I feel like when HG reveals her origins more things about the world at large will click into place, and when that happens I feel like the world of Terra will just open up even more. On a side note, I get the felling kal's story isn't ending without us seeing her be truly vulnerable. At large she just talks about the state of the terra and gives sometimes an opinion or two, external things, yet never talks (or show even a sign) about her emotions, her traumas, her grief, or what her dreams are, internal stuff. She has so much going on that I just imagine the day that happens HG could make one of the most emotional moments in the game's history.
Kal'tsit is like tailor of Arknights universe, its amazing. Also one thing you mised on purpouse or not. In Ursus part of story we met "Doctor", he was one the Witte interacted with. That part blew my mind, i so want to see all logs and stories. I am still baffled how "gatcha game" has story telling i haven't encountered in quite a while in gaming.
Thank you for this, I was trying to wrap my head around this event's story but couldn't make sense on how the 3 time periods are supposed to link together
Thanks for the info. When i played the game and heard her name i thought she was a male, but i was wrong (obviously) i start liking her when i learn about her story bit and i thought her story and Arknight's story as a whole are really interesting. So much so that with the help of my hyperphantasia created 500 years worth of Headcanon. All with her and dokutah backstory and everything i also like if the story line up with the current canon. Although new infos will mess things up a bit, i can just change things up and line it up without much of a change. Anyway she's true waifu
Now I really want to know a story about Dokutah past itself,how did Theresa incident happened,who recruit the Dokutah,where did they find Dokutah,what's the reason Dokutah kill Theresa,and so on(some of them are in Darknights Memoir and Main story,but still something might clear my doubt about these kind of question) Also you just cleared my doubt about Closure being very friendly with us,despite she is one of the oldest members of Rhodes Island,and knew the Dokutah also involved in assassinating Theresa,along with other hired Sarkaz members.Kal'tsit sure keep a promise with Theresa huh

She is an extremely complex character, but at the end of the day, she's just a lonely immortal trying to save people that are dear to her and protect the innocent. Just an immortal that has suffered too much from time and hates seeing the people suffer for something they did not do. Rhodes Island is the only thing left that binds her together, if one day Rhodes Island and everyone dies because of some reason, she might snap or just give up on having close connections ever again.
It’s the sad reality of someone being blessed/cursed by this, let’s hope she decides to stay with us till the end tho
@@QaiserMLG She probably will, but it won't be the end for her, only for us.

@@keisenshishigo5173 now that i think about it, will she ever die for real? Not even oripathy can kill her, man i'm starting to feel real bad for her....
So.. we only need Lyudmila joined Rhodes Island to complete the Kal'tsit Children Squad.
If we one day get her an Operator, I want a Story Event of them having a Family Gathering
You forgot Heidi.
@@zomfgroflmao1337 Heidi is most like a simp of Kyaru see (Kal'tsit) than a part of the children Squad, in my opinion Hahaha
@@dannyfuerts8239 You probably haven't read the whole story, she played the simp, but is actually closer to a student, just not the medical kind but for the information gathering and scheming side of Kal'tsit.
How many kal'tsit adopted/take care child? huh 😂
When i see her I can't see the other operator are 'waifu material'
A little backstory: I actually started playing Arknights _because_ of Kal'tsit. I was randomly browsing YT one day and happened to see the CN Announcement for Under Tides. I loved the atmosphere and music presented in the trailer and found Kal'tsit's design (and Mon3tr's) fascinating. So I gave Arknights a try.
Ever since, she has steadily cemented herself as my favorite character. Her caring-yet-calculating nature and tactical acumen flow together with her potentially millennia spanning age to create a unique presence in the story that is simultaneously inspiring and tragic. If the Doktah sees the battlefield as a chessboard, then I would like to think of Kal'tsit as the one who wrote the rules.
From her presence in the Campaign, to cameos in side stories and even an event that places her center stage, these all show only the briefest of glimpses into the epoch tapestry of her story. Though I think that is the point, as it reveals how even a decades-long conflict is only the briefest of stops on Kal'tsit's long, lonely road.
Also the theme for AWitD is absolutely kickass and I love it.
Cheers everyone and have fun! ^_^
I hope your orundums, headhunt permits and originite primes ready to get her. Good luck
@@govinlock8568 Thank you fellow Doktah! Cheers. ^_^
Assuming that UT directly follows, I can likely manage ~200 pulls total before the event ends, accounting for everything. (Whaling notwithstanding.)
So, while that isn't the ideal 300, I do hope that will be sufficient. Even better if UT happens to be pushed back, then I'll just continue to add to my Lynx Doctor Fund.
Intresting, I only got into arknights when there was a rainbow six 6 collab with this game. It was my first time seeing it and I did see some ads about it though ads didn't help on how it was delivered. (The ads for arknights really sucks. Those that know about arknights infamous terrible adds than the trailers know this.)
Though I was skeptical about why would they do a collab with arknights, a game i have no knowledge or haven't heard of it I didn't bother about it until a friend of mine in siege told me about Tachanka being in the game. That caught my interest as Tachanka is my Main/Meme/ Favorite guy to play as doing some casually unranked game. That's when I started checking arknights and found out the story very intriguing and intresting. I started after arknights somewhere near twilight womble. I have to be honest, I have no knowledge how the fu ck to do with my ops and have to look at guides on youtube how to beat stages since well... i kinda invest poorly when started out and I didn't know the reroll one. But I do remember my first 6 star ops, actually two for my first 10 pull. Those are SilverAsh and Angelina. Plus like all bug newbies, I didn't invest Anelina only until CC2 when I learn more about her skill. Not only that I didn't invest Vanguard at the time since i though they were weak and useless and focus on guards and defeneders and snipers. Than I got Suzuran during the event and E2 her immediately since her SK3 can heal,buff attack, and slow the enemy and i thought this is way better that Angelina (again i was a noob at that time). Only after the end of the year did I finally got my head together and started which op to invest, which lvl an E2 op can last long and which Class im lacking of. Currently Casters are the only one im lacking of since I can't decide who to pick and only have E2 eyjafjalla since someone told me she's a good burst damaged. Other than that I like the game lore story and all othet stuff, but the only thing I regret I started late, since I have this obessesion to get every medal. Sadly CC 0 and CC 1 (forgotten some) will be the only incomplete medals I will never get since it's a one time only. CC0 I Pass late and CC 1 I have poor choice of op to get event an SSS rank and other medals.
Anyways that's how I got into arknights, A collab event I didn't know of a game I have 0 knowledge of. If that collab didn't happen or my friend didn't mention it, I will probably have overlook and think it another cash grab gacha games since I play Feh (Fire Emblem Heroes) and Dragalia before.
Caring-yet-calculating might be the best way to describe her I‘ve ever heard, your description of her definitely fits very well
Hope you get her on her upcoming banner friend!
"Haha lore in mobile tower defense anime game?"
*37 minutes long lore video about only one character drops*
😨
And I had to cut out a ton of stuff lmao
Another great video!
This gigantic chunk of information helps shed some light on Kal'tsit, a character who might be thought of as a "perfect character with no flaws". Perhaps she is a living example of "cursed with immortality", but where she simply does not die of age. If she were a true immortal, she wouldn't be afraid of any harm.
When one dies in a good timeline, they'll die with the knowledge that everything will get better from that point onwards. With immortality, this is not possible - all good things come to an end after all. Reality reveals itself and Kal'tsit is confronted with a plethora of dilemmas she has too little control over in the grand scheme of war, conflict and disease. Because she's familiar with everything, she definitely has a high number in the age sector - Patriot knows her for a very long time and clearly states that her looks have not changed at all. He himself is as old as 200 years and he met her at a young age, so it's safe to say she's at least a few hundred years old? How about more examples?
- knowledge of numerous languages, including Aegirian and ancient Sarkaz dialects; someone like Kal'tsit definitely has the time and capacity to cram on studies as these
- what exactly do the Emperor's Blades do, to the point of being able to tell their presence from black snow alone; when she knew Pursuer was coming, I'd imagine that deep down she reacted like "damnit, again?!"
- was she in other shenanigans prior to her employment in Westin Security? with her wisdom, she sure as hell looks like it
This gets worse with time. She comes across more things she can't stop or she makes a bad decision on. At this point, I like to think that Rhodes Island is what keeps her going. By the end of Chapter 8:
- she is honoring Theresa's promise by keeping Amiya and the Doctor safe.*
- she can now honor Lillia's promise to take care of Louisa and shape her into a good doctor
- she has her first true surrogate daughter in the form of a red-hooded wolf, Projekt Red
- she continues to defy those by the likes of Loken by harboring kitties like Rosmontis
- she convinced Lyudmila to ditch Reunion, herself doing it by going back to Siracusa. now i wonder, why did Kal'tsit bring her to Siracusa in the first place? Hypergryph makes themselves a lot of ground to build stories for later
- the means to continue her eternal ambition from a comfortable place... for now.
Kal'tsit has proven herself some insightful character development as the lore built itself to what WitD brought us.
One more thing, when the Sarkaz mercenaries spare 3 for "questioning", we clearly see one of them ask the casters to "grill" them.
I'm not sure what worse, burning them for fun or literally crisping them so they can eat those three? If the latter can be true for some Sarkaz, does that imply a disturbingly unique diet?
Anyways, stay awesome brother. And thank you for the long video!
The question of her age is actually a really interesting topic we need to explore more at a later point, and you are definitely right at the „hinting at other plots part“, they have set up like ten more events within her story
Cheers for adding that comment!
damn big bob
Not sure if you are joking about the grilling or not. Grill has been used as a term for intense questioning for a long time now. Although it came from the cooking sense it has no connection with eating or torturing for fun.
@@Paldasan I've simply never heard of this term before, which is odd. Thanks for giving me a new perspective, though.
@@bigbob5797 no worries mate, I probably picked it up in school where the teachers would grill us for answers, or at home when parents would grill me about where I was all night.
Nothing screams badass like summoning a familiar monster made your own bones and able to create an poison that not even Ursus tech is able to discover it's contents.

As for that particular promise Kal'tsit continues to keep, we get a part of it in the infected PV and more of it from Kal'tsit's Promotion Record. (wiki's fan translation, subject to change)
"When you see this letter, everything would have ended.
I hid the letter in your desk without second thought. If you haven't sat down to think of your past quietly, you can't find this letter.
These are for you in the past.
...Do you still remember the theories you've taught me? I still remember.
You say the earth is not infinte; it's only a pile of dirt on the vast sphere.
You say our bodies aren't created innately; we crawled before we've learnt to walk.
You say the skies are like the ground, as both of them are rafts drifting in the sky...
I remember them all, Kal'tsit.
You said, you want to know the answer about yourself apart from the meaning of what we do; you once asked me what we've entrusted within this ship, and why I cared about it so much.
I think my answer is childish, so I have never answered it directly.
...Kal'tsit, I can feel your loneliness. You are lonely because you think you have nothing similar to others.
Kal'tsit, my answer is, I wish that Rhodes Island becomes your home.
I've once thought to see the future with you together.
But loneliness has no cure, being astray has no end, and cancer cannot be cured...
I've did what I can do. I won't fret on my result.
The mission of Babel ended, while you and your ship has just started its journey.
Now, go find the answer to your own question. After a long, long night, Rhodes Island will face the new dawn.
The future gliding on the soft ground belongs to you all.
I am not one of you, Kal'tsit. I cannot solve your problems.
-But I am your friend. Always.
Her Highness once said, Dr. Kal'tsit is the one hosting the final excavation of the ship.
But now, we sometimes will see her running past the corridors, stop suddenly, and feel the walls with her hand.
We still don't know what this ship means to Kal'tsit."
It can't be Arknights without pain and suffering. *sad noises*
Wow... I have actually never read that before, this was genuinely beautiful
Did anyone else notice that when Theresa mentions Rhodes Island in her letter, Kal'sit's reaction is- "So soon..." It was nostalgia.
God, I'm really excited for this video, 37 minutes of lore injected into my veins. I really like Arknight's plot, characters and other stuff the game has to offer, and the best part the lore keeps getting deeper and deeper, I really wonder what the endgame will look like, hype!
And with that event it got much deeper than ever before, there were countless little comments on places, events and people, it’s mad!
And the end game will be us stopping Amiya from becoming Arknights-Cthulhu and turning everyone into Dust
Kal'tsit is oozing with main character
energy here in Walk in the Dust.
She's trying her best for the better civilization,but the people in Terra are just... something 😔
The thing that surprised me is that kal'tsit is still sane after everything that happened in her life. her story is just so sad everytime she found the good in humanity, humanity itself betrays her but again and again she found the goodness in it, truly a never ending cycle.
Imo a good ending for kal'tsit is just to let her die in peace. But considering Arknights, that doesn't seem possible. Great video on shining the light of her story! Not everyone have the patience's to read the stories inside the game. Thank you for the video.
True! Depending on how old she actually is, I can imagine her going through a mental struggle like that after the first century or so actually
Also please don’t make her die
I think I heard somewhere that Kal'tsit saw Patriot leaving Kazdel for Ursus. Also, Old Isin mentioned from his last dream to Elliot that he saw someone that looks very similar to Kal'tsit.
You are right, Patriot and her knew each other personally, however I didn’t want this video to be a loose collection of facts, so I only took the stuff we could piece together into one continuous story
One of my favorite things about Kal'tsit is how her story is presented. We don't sit down in multiple events with Kal'tsit and learn of her that way, but rather other characters get events and interact with her, and you have to piece her story together from that. She is the most involved and storied character in the game and it comes from her presence in other people's lives.
I don't quite understand Kal'tsit's decision to keep one daughter in Ursus while sending another to Siracusa. I keep imagining what'd happen if Louisa and Lyudmila were raised like sisters and recruited into RI together.
Same here, them being there for each other would have made things a lot better for sure, but there most likely was a reason for it we don’t know yet
If I had to make a guess, I'd say for security. I imagine as they got older the potential for people to connect them back to the massacre and start asking questions of how they ended up together and who put them there. RI or even Babel wasn't even an idea yet and it's not like she could've carried them along on her journey. Therefore she makes the decision to split them up just to be safe and hope they have normal lives without being dragged back into the mess.
I think the reason why kaltsit use her real name when asassinate the grand Duke is because she want the Royal guard to hunt her instead of lillia.
Arknights lore is really something look forward into. it's world building and the relevance of characters to the storyline and to each other is something special,kal'tsit backstory is more than enough to create her own Anime, Imagine what would HG give us once they start to focus on Dokutahs lore ( I hope we get to know priestess) which is arguably more enigmatic than our Acient Nekomimi Waifu with spinal issues.
Anyway great video as always, hope you keep doing this videos!!!
You are so right dude! The best part is how Kaltsit‘s story is directly intertwined with the stories of so many other characters as well, Passenger, Crownslayer, Red and so many more
Amazing summary and deep dive into Kal'tsit
This must've taken a lot of effort to put together so thank you so much!
I always looks forward to seeing your lore videos in my subscription feed, and I'm so excited to learn more about Kal'tsit as the story continues ^_^
Yeah it took quite a bit lmao I‘m also excited for what’s next
same - I was actually checking my feed for this video because I was a bit confused of some of the stuff that was said in the event- but now things make much more sense.
Thank you for make this event clear the whole passenger part was too complicated for me and you made it clear. Thanks a lot
It was complicated, I read it like three times
One of the things I loved of this event was the introduction of Demons... which promptly produced more questions than answers as per usual with AK lore. However, they explained one thing I was always curious about: what delimited the territories of Terra's map? rather, what was in those black blocks? It wasn't water, as we know few people have seen an ocean, let alone know what they are. It wasn't mountains or barriers a la AoT, since no one had never mentioned such a thing. So what was stopping the people from Terra to go there?
Now, we have an answer, Demons.
Whatever they are, it needed enormous armies to drove them away, and mere fragments are enough to power up one of the strongest enemies we have ever fought in the game. So while their introduction was brief, the impact they will have on the lore will be big. And I for once can't wait to know more about them.
Exactly! I always wondered why Terra‘s Nation don’t just go ahead and take over the unexplored regions
@@QaiserMLG as so many of the countries on Terra are based on colonial era Earth nations a simpler reason for not conquering the unexplored regions is because there are no known resources there to control. Exploration costs money so there would need to be bored aristocrats in a time like the Age of Discovery or known resources (discovered through secondary trading), or resource scarcity (to push populations out) which doesn't seem to be a major theme in the game so far (scarcity due to war is different).
There is also the fact she knows ancient sargonian and probably was part of an expedition in Sargon more than 1k years ago she is just amazing.
I only started playing Arknights recently and the first event I had access to was A Walk in the Dust. Considering how little progress I had made in the main story, following what was happening in the event was very difficult and confusing, so this video definitely helped put things into perspective.
Since they announced her in the CN live, I am saving for her. I am saving every single thing that can be used to headhunt. I was never this determinate before for an Arknights character.
Edit: The day come. Her banner is out and I got her from less than ~48 000 Orundom. 🥺 She came home as the 2nd 6* on the banner. My first 6* pull was Eunectes.
I saw some videos telling the story of the event and I thought that I knew everything. Now I know that I knew nothing till this moment. Thank you very much for this long ass video. I am really satisfied by it. Because of a language barrier and writing style it's really difficult to read the story from the source and you were always a big helper. I really appreciate the effort you put in making such videos and hope that you will keep it up that way.
Ayy, I‘m glad you liked it! The writing style of this event was pretty difficult, you’re right
Thank you for putting this together, really wonderful job.
Can't wait for her banner and more story on her!
Very cool, now we gotta wait till Hypergryph give us the other 1000+ years of Kaltsit lore
Great video, really enjoyed it. One thing I would have mentioned was Old Isin's dreams, especially the last one about him seeing Kalt'sit beside the Padishah during the conquest of the Foehn Hotlands, which supposedly happened one thousand years ago, iirc, as said by Kalt'sit herself. At this point it's clear Kalt'sit is extremely old, or maybe she can travel to specific moments in history (kinda like the singularities in fate/GO ig). Whenever she talked about history events in a walk in the dust, it really seemed like she experienced them in first person, even though she was implying all the things she knew came from history records. In addition the fact she can speak so many languages and also ancient sarkaz makes her even more mysterious and interesting as a character. Whatever her real background is, I just hope I'll live long enough to see Kalt'sit's secrets finally be revelead lol
You are right, however at that point I had to leave out certain parts of the story, because the video would have just been too long
The things I left out, like the question of her age, will then be discussed in separate videos
@@QaiserMLG yeah I completely understand that some things have to be cut out, it's just the whole dream situation was one of the most fascinating thing in the event for me and I was curious on your take, but overall it's not that important to understand Kalt'sit's story. Looking forward to your theories in future videos cause you always come up with really intriguing ideas lol
Gonna rewatch this gold after getting her twice. Thank you Kal'stit for everything
Things like this and the humor is why I support this channel. Thanks for your works
And thanks for your support! It genuinely means the world
I only recently got back to the game and your lore series is exactly what I need to re emerge myselfe in to this detalied world and to catch up on all things I missed.
Ayy, that’s awesome! And you won’t regret getting back into Arknights my dude, welcome back!
@@QaiserMLG Thanks my dude, the only thing I regret is that I left the game.
Can't wait to hear the next episode of the lore series.
p.s. Did you notice that Kal‘tsit has heart-shaped pupils in her maid outfit on the main event art 😏
OH MY GOD I actually didn’t notice
@@QaiserMLG Its hard to spot on a small screen. I looked it up after noticing that they look kinda like triangles.
Thank you so much. I started to read through the entire lore in-game just to hype myself for her arrival(memory of a goldfish, so need to do it everytime) but I'm happy that I don't have to spend days trying to just read lore
Lmao nice, glad I could be of use!
Been waiting for your next video for a while, and this video just blows all my expectations away in a 37 minute bomb. Arknights honestly has better lore than a lot of anything I've ever read or watched, and it's great to know that there are RUclipsra like yourself willing to bring us the lore in well made videos like these. Looking forward to the next one and all you're future videos. Thanks, and as you say, Cheers!
Cheers, my Guy! It took quite some time to make this video lmao that’s why I was gone, but I‘m happy you liked it!
Great video. Walk in the Dust is already one of my favorite events lore-wise.
Yes! The amount of world building it does is phenomenal
Folonic never learning to say Papa, now that cuts deep
Well done, well done, this story is by far so interesting it almost feels like I'm listening to a serial podcast. I skip the cut scenes but I'm so blessed that you could tuck me in with such a trilling tail.
Absolutely Amazing Video, from one of my favorite storytellers.
Ayyy, glad you liked it my dude
Thanks a lot fam, my English vocabulary only help me understand a partial of the story, and your explanation really fill in the gasp for not only Walk in the dust, but many more events and main story
This event was a very complicated one, I‘m glad the vid was helpful!
My theory is that the Ursus Empire is possibly the last villain in Arknights. Rhodes Island will probably fight the Reagent and take back Kazdel from Theresis, then Amiya will claim the Throne.
After successfully taking Kazdel, they will wage war against the Ursus Empire to end it's reign of terror against the infected onçe and for all. Knowing that this is Arknights I'm not really sure if we will get a happy ending, they can even gave us a tragic ending. Our beloved operators like Blaze, Ch'en or even Amiya might die during the war. A bitter sweet ending is more possible, like we will win but a lot of lives will be sacrificed in the process including some famous Rhodes Islands operators.
That’s interesting my dude, cause I think that Ursus will one day become our ally LMAO
@@QaiserMLG I don't know about that because Ursus Empire treat the infected worse than trash. Kazdel in my opinion won't be the final villains, they are potential allies since majority of the Sarkaz race are infected.
@@QaiserMLG Amiya will probably unite Kazdel to fight Ursus Empire.
@@QaiserMLG I kinda agree with his theory too. The empire treat the infected worse than livestocks like working them on mines and then letting them to die suffering from oripathy. Uniting Kazdel makes more sense because the Sarkaz race are mostly infected.
@@QaiserMLG Ursus always had bad reputation when it comes to how they oppress the infected. I think bringing down a huge Empire would be the ultimate challenge for us. As of now Kazdel is not as strong as Ursus, there's no way Kazdel can take on the Ursus Empire. The possibility of Ursus becoming our ally is pretty low in my opinion.
I was *waiting* for a video like this. I often don't have time to read the event stories so this is super helpful.
Glad I could be of help!
Qaiser MLG, I'm loving your work so far. Your voice is uniquely interesting, goes well with the story telling hahhaa.
I been watching or listening to you talking about Arknight Lore for a while and thought... just how much more lore is there in the game lol
Well glad you like my voice, cause I don’t LMAO
But since you’re asking: I have a 11 page word document filled with video ideas, theories and what not, so we’re definitely covered for now hahaha
Wow more than 30 minutes. Truthfully this story did make me like her more
Kal'tsit is my favorite AK character as well haha
I find her so interesting both personality and story wise.
Thank you for the great Kal content 🙏♥️
I was just waiting for this to make sense of all that lore dump from the event. You make it make so much more sense T_T.
*sees nearly 40 minute vid*
“Turn on the mood lights we getting comfy”
I hope in the future we can get a operator that's from the Ursus Royal guard of the Emperor's blade, idk how it would work because they are really loyal to Ursus, but it will be cool if we did.
thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, wow!! its so great! i read the story but didnt understand anything (its quite lengthy and they use complicated words and english is not my first language-) so this really REALLY helped. Kal'tsit is such a great character
Yeaah, the Event was pretty complicated
When you find out about the her backstory as well as learning about the parents of some of the operators, or enemies, you learn about why she comes off as so strict while being in her position. The whole thing with her, Red and Crownslayer hits a little more.
Also wouldn't it be amazing if Closure was the child of those two studen we don't know about?
28:02 question's answer: She uses talk-no-jutsu to make the Royal Guard change his mind lol. She avoid conflicts if necessary.
This was a massive and very well-detailed video of Kalt'sit story on this event and I would say you did a very good job Qaiser on explaining and narrating us about her lore.I read the whole story but its just that the other thing doesn't make sense to me at all especially the small parts and you help me understand it clearly. Thank you very much
I understand that, it was a very difficult event lmao glad I could be of help!
Once I heard the name "Tkaronto", Toronto's indigenous name, I realized that the devs have actually done an insane amount of research to build up this world, the lore, and each individual character's story. My respect for them just went up even more, I didn't think that was possible! Thank you as well for compiling all of this, love these kind of videos! 👏👏
The great thing about some of her extreme old lore is it predates Arknights itself. Her being an unimaginably old being that works to protect and heal others was her original lore back when all she was, was an OC of Lowlight/Umineko, the creator of Arknights.
At first i came to this game, all i know is just riots everywhere
Now when i came into the lore deeper, the story just keep dropping, along with my brain that can't comprehend the story due to it's complexity and much much more, god this is confusing but interesting
Thank you so much for this video Qaiser. I have trouble understanding the lore sometimes and oh boy is this some juicy lore i want to know. It also brings so many questions to mind.
How did the doctor "kill" theresa? Just how old is kal'tsit? Why was kal'tsit so 'loyal' to ancient sarkaz and kazdel?
Hypergryph GIVE US MORE LORE!!
Dude I also sometimes struggle with it lmao I‘m happy that I can be of help!
Even though she was like a side character of Arknights stories and lore her involvement in most of them make her an awesome protagonist
Everything lore-related i come by your videos, its more easily digestible than reading out the painfully long dialogues.
i am too tried to play the game to read the story with how complicated each stage get , your story summmary is very helpful thxxxx
AK lore is one of my favourite things now on YT, thank you sir.
This is bloody awesome, my G
Thank you so much for the awesome explanation , Also I love the BG music :)
Solid content as always dude. Thanks for this rather organized timeline of Kal...and that really heightened my respect for her. Although not my waifu, she's indeed one type of a friend I would have for life, and Theresa is so lucky to have her. (Wish I could have one irl---no cap.) Not even that, as someone who wants to venture into science shit myself, she's kind of a role model to me.
I really do hope by the time her banner pops out, I could manage to recruit her and read more into her own files rather than guessing who she is. Aaaand most of all, thanks Andrean---Lowlight-sama for making his own OC non-limited. At least it's an insurance that Kal can spook us anytime.
I agree with what you’re saying, even outside her being my Waifu I see her as a kind of comfort character, in the sense of with her being around things won’t go wrong and she’s gonna have your back
@@QaiserMLG She even seems to be the type to slap you with reality but then supports you in your endeavors and decisions as long as these won't harm ya. True gem of a friend. ✨
Thank you so much for always making Lore video QaiserMLG
As a Dokutah that loves lore and theorizing future event.
I enjoy this video so much.
Bro your sense of humour and the way you narrate makes it very enjoyable to watch. Keep up the good work!
In time, before time...there was Kal'tsit
as someone who recently started playing the game, ive missed a lot of events and the storyline and lores are all over the place. This is perfect for me and I'm loving it, kal'tsit is def one of top favs now
To be fair, the game does a really good job at keeping all the older events and storylines available, so you never permanently miss anything.
Thankyou for this video. 37 minutes of goodness. ❤️
First of all, let me express my thanks for the awesome video as always Qaiser. Thank you.
Second of all, The whole story behind kal'tsit was quite a mystery to me, where she started, why she acts like that and what's her objective, other than to save the human civilization or what not. Lastly, I wasn't sure what happened before the main story, i just knew we woke up from the sacrophagus and got put in all of this weird shit, but thanks for the clearer explanation of how we were covered in blood when theresa death happened, and kal'tsit just had to put us in a sacrophagus for healing, jump a few years later , we're here.
Keep up the wonderful work as always!
Qaiser's narrating voice along with the walk in the dust ambient theme is the best combo
Probably one of your best videos. Great job!
Thanks!
Ah I was wondering when the video on Kal'tsit would drop xD
Really loved this event story and I am looking forward to seeing if I missed anything.
Yeaaaah, that one took a little longer to come out than my vids usually do
Chief’s kiss documentary backed by research and respectful passion! Thank you!
She really has been through a lot, and the fact that she downright hates the Doctor's guts really must've put her on the tipping point. Though I have high hopes for this game to continue into the far future, unfortunately in Arknights fashion, all good thing must come to an end. I don't know what happened between her and us, but I feel like that would end Arknights (or the Arknights story) if it ever got to that point. I wouldn't be surprised if Arknights would ever to shut down its servers, the main story would end up with the Doctor dying, then have Kal'stit continuing her journey across Terra.
Great video. Thank you very much for that!
Hopefully in the future I will see a lot of interesting things about her and the Doctor.
If we don't get at least her attire of Sargon as an Epoque skin I would be very surprised and bummed out. I was always interested in Kal'tsit, but this event made her spring to the top of the list of characters I really like and we still know basically nothing about her. How old is she actually, how is she alive that long with an infection, how did she get that infection, what is her actual origin story and not least, what happened during all these year long gaps in her story (and how the hell did she know of the secret ritual of the emperor's blades, including an actual 'demon')
(Also another interesting character is Heidi, she impressed me a lot with her playing the pampered rich kid, while secretly being more in the know than all the lords at the party, wouldn't be surprised if we see her as an operator in the future, maybe a flagbearer or other vanguard type once we get more into Victorias Secrets. xD)
If we one day get her as an operator, more than one decade will have passed, so she definitely had quite some time to get strong lmao
Any chance you might do a lore deep dive on the Emperor's Blade?
Eveything Kal'tsit said about him, his powers and how he is able to be, suggests a far more deeper and darker lore.
Thanks im too weak to advance past WD-7 so this is a good heads up!
Love your content so much that

RUclips, Please.
RUclips being RUclips again I see, but even you just watching means a lot, don’t worry about it lmao
This was a very good side story, not only do we get to know Kal'tsit better but I especially enjoyed the greater lore they hinted at involving the lands outside of settled society and the monsters/demons that live there.
I hope we get more on them soon, since mon3tr and the emperor's blades demons show how very powerful they most be. Also based on how old she is I wonder if she is one of the immortals like Kashchey?
I gained a new appreciation for Kal'tsit from this side story and the video was great as always.
Excited to see how the anime will deliver her story
Amazing video btw
I thought Doktah's high tech coffin would have some form of securities to prevent people poking it but nope i guess. I also want to think that Amiya is a genetic modified child of Therasa and our helmet dude.
Hot damn Kaltits adventures are wild.
Been waiting for this
It took me longer than usual, that’s for sure
As someone (Credit to Ritwik G.) in another video (this one ruclips.net/video/bZqOYWozoMs/видео.html), has this theory:
Terra might have been a world that was being terraformed by a space faring civilization but something happened to that civilization and the terraforming went haywire causing catastrophes and Originium disasters to happen. Following this theory, Kal'tsit might have been one of the original settlers that somehow attained immortality and now is trying to essentially fix the world (or try to).
From here on is my opinion:
The above theory is supported by the fact that seems to know the history of Terra rather intimately like she was there when it happened and the fact that she doesn't seem to age at all (plus Monst3r which is essentially a biomechanical defense system of sorts.
37 Minutes of Lore?! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARDWORK!
Ayy, my pleasure!
Kal's suit was top notch and her little ponytail... Forgive me Father but I must simp.
34 MINUTES?! Mah boi Qaiser you spoil us!
I think Kal'sit has live long before the founding the civilization of Terra itself.
Look like She knew about a giant landship call "RI".
Yup, her age is something we definitely need to talk about at a later point in time
Oh man, something worth mentioning btw, someone on reddit pointed out that in the WD background (where all of Kal' outfit is located) in where she has the maid outfit, she has heart-eyes which is the hottest fucking thing in the game.
You know this makes me excited for Kal'tsit's REAL backstory. Like we learned A LOT about her yet I feel like everything is way too superficial.
We learned in the event Kal gets involved in a lot political conflicts around the world just because she wants to but we don't know why. Does she feel responsible for the fate of the world because she is inmortal? If so why is she inmortal? How old is she? Is she related to the demons? How acient is she relatively to modern terra?
I feel like when HG reveals her origins more things about the world at large will click into place, and when that happens I feel like the world of Terra will just open up even more.
On a side note, I get the felling kal's story isn't ending without us seeing her be truly vulnerable. At large she just talks about the state of the terra and gives sometimes an opinion or two, external things, yet never talks (or show even a sign) about her emotions, her traumas, her grief, or what her dreams are, internal stuff. She has so much going on that I just imagine the day that happens HG could make one of the most emotional moments in the game's history.
YEASSẞSSS best catto's video is here
Now I just realized....
The Chernobog incident is almost like the Chernobyl event, where the nuclear reactor exploded
Nice work and effort 👍👍👍
Kal'tsit is like tailor of Arknights universe, its amazing. Also one thing you mised on purpouse or not. In Ursus part of story we met "Doctor", he was one the Witte interacted with. That part blew my mind, i so want to see all logs and stories. I am still baffled how "gatcha game" has story telling i haven't encountered in quite a while in gaming.
30 mins+ vid from Qaiser!?!?! LET'SA DUCKING GOOOOOO
YOOOOO
Great video, very interesting!
Thank you for this, I was trying to wrap my head around this event's story but couldn't make sense on how the 3 time periods are supposed to link together
Yeah it can be quite confusing at times, with the whole jumping between times and places
Great work. 👏👏👏
Damn this is really summarized than the game that'll almost toll your 10 years of life in reading.
Two people that are really interesting in the game kal'tsit and doktar
Quaiser Talking to his Kaltskids: "And that's how I met your mother"
Thanks for the info.
When i played the game and heard her name i thought she was a male, but i was wrong (obviously) i start liking her when i learn about her story bit and i thought her story and Arknight's story as a whole are really interesting. So much so that with the help of my hyperphantasia created 500 years worth of Headcanon. All with her and dokutah backstory and everything i also like if the story line up with the current canon. Although new infos will mess things up a bit, i can just change things up and line it up without much of a change.
Anyway she's true waifu
I know exactly what you mean... you just know that a character is awesome, when you create your own headcanon and backstory for her lmao
Now I really want to know a story about Dokutah past itself,how did Theresa incident happened,who recruit the Dokutah,where did they find Dokutah,what's the reason Dokutah kill Theresa,and so on(some of them are in Darknights Memoir and Main story,but still something might clear my doubt about these kind of question)
Also you just cleared my doubt about Closure being very friendly with us,despite she is one of the oldest members of Rhodes Island,and knew the Dokutah also involved in assassinating Theresa,along with other hired Sarkaz members.Kal'tsit sure keep a promise with Theresa huh
Well without saying too much, there was an event on CN about exactly that, so we‘re definitely gonna learn a bit about that
