I honestly was not planning on posting this video due to embarrassment. I think I’m the only person who didn’t know this was Mel’s mom at first glance 🥲 Anyway, you guys asked for it so here it is!
😂😂😂 don’t worry, you’re definitely not the only one to not recognize her
totally fine! Don't sweat it :) If you read the description on the League channel it was explained but not on the Netflix one.
And even Necrit of all even missed her being pregnant XD so don't worry if you miss something ;)
Dont worry! This was an intense music video. In the usual Arcane way theres so many details packed in this video that its easy to miss alot. I'll write some more details down in a different post.
Don't worry, Necrit made a lore video and did not even realize she was pregnant from the start of the video lmao
He realizes it until the follow up video
Extra note: A day or so after they released the video, League released background lore which helped explain some of the stuff happening in the video. For example, the battle was on the shores of her family home, not in Ionia, and she was pregnant with Mel at the time.
Anyway, Necrit's first video came out just before that, and he then put out another video where he updates his analysis based on the new lore dump that was released, plus some other stuff. Might be worth checking out.
I appreciate this insight! I had reacted to his first explanation video but will definitely check out the updated version 😁
All good i apperitiate you’re honesty
🙏🏼
MV and a Necrit video? Hell yes!
😁🔥
great video!!!❤
You’re too kind thank you 😭🙏🏼
It's okay. Even Necrit realized later that he didn't get all of it, he made another video after this one. Appreciate your honesty, this MV was deeper than we all thought and I'm sure there's still more we don't know 🤣
23:32 There is undoubtably a connection there. The picture of the girl is from Arcane season 1. Remember Ambessa beheads this girl infront of Mel to show that sometimes the innocent must die for the greater good.
Here is my take on the videos story content:
This character you see here is wounded , young (pregnant with Mel at the battlefield) Ambessa Medarda having a vision about her future meeting the wolf and lamb (=kindred=death). She is the mother of Mel from Arcane we saw already in Season 1 ^^. According to the description this is a vision of her future (at the time - we only know her many years later in Arcane - probably 40 to 50 years old). Apart from Ambessas champion introduction because she comes to the game as well, I am sure this video will have some relevance for S2 (after all Christian Linke, co-creator of Arcane, directed it ;) - even if it is only referenced in a sentence and the purpose is to give us more context with this video or to understand something about Mel or Ambessa better. Just like with the ENEMY video we got a bit more insight into Ekko, Vi and Powders relationship.
There is surely a lot methaphors in this and a vision does not necessarily represent reality but I am guessing some bits of reality are mixed in. As far as I can guess, the wolf at the battlefield looks at her pregnant belly(another life!) and disappears- then she desperatly barely manages to protects the little lamb (=innocence, the chance of a swift death for her and probably literally representing the baby/Mel) in the Shurima setting while wearing a white, feminine dress(=innocent) without scars.From her bio we know now that her family worked in Shurima but I wouldn't cross out that her ancestors are from Shurima as well bc noxus invaded Shurima at some point and she fits the shuriman appearance. I think this is representing her will to protect her child but she bearly manages by all the chaos and threats around her- you can see her desperate look while trying to keep the lamb in her arms, close to her body - bc of being occupied with protecting the little lamb she is not able to fight back and is poked around by the mysterious figures"no peace till I lead them all"- probaby the reason she exiled Mel later on. She actually does not want to give the lamb up but sees no other choice in order to manage the situation - you see her agonizing over this while "Don’t wash my spirit, don’t cleanse my soul" is sung (while still wearing the white dress on that stone with the white/blue paint on her face saying "cause that's is all I know"). She exiled Mel in order to protect her while saying to her that she was her weakness which is the truth and probably represented here. She couldn't protect Kino and does not want Mel to end up dead too. Ambessa can not protect Kino/Mel while fighting back and ruling. Ambessa gives up the lamb(that she literally holds dear like a baby) and her own motherly feelings while making a pact with Kindred (looks different in every region - I am guessing this is the noxus kindred) and ascending at the end to a mighty warrior after a long fight with the aspect of war- Pantheon. But even though she archieved glory at the end you see images of her unborn baby Mel flashing before the golden mask and that Ambessa - the image as a mighty warrior in her mind which is the new skinline - is still shaken/affected by that -meaning she is still her weakness. Maybe not all of it is a vision - maybe Ambessa actually did a pact with kindred while Mel was in her belly at that battlefield and that might be a reason for her to survive the attack on the council bc she got some power? The eyes of the baby lit up in gold! And we know that Mel's colors are gold! S2 will probably shed some light on that.
I also wanna point out how much young Ambessa resembles Mel - they did such an amazing job here - the eyes here literally look like Mel. The singer also sounds literally like Ambessa which is so cool making this completely her song! So Ambessa kind of used to be softer like Mel imo but she abandonned that to be a mighty leader. The fight with pantheon is probably symbolic - he is the aspect of war simply representing the many battles she fought and the scars she got from that. I am speaking here in the past bc we know Ambessa later has these scars in Arcane S1 but in this video all of this is Ambessa's vision of the future if she walks the path of a wolf, which she did! She said in S1 ep 8 "A wolf has no mercy". Only we know that there is already some truth in this. The golden armor represents the might for every character and how overwhemingly powerful the ememy is in her eyes - probably the reason why some targon/solari armor/setting comes in (bc you can ascend by climbing targon and fightng the aspects) in this vision to represent this. The throne also looks more targonian than noxian - but still this is a vision so it could be mixed in her mind. The targon references might totally be a production of her mind to symbolize the ascencion and gaining power. I don't think that this literally happend but represents what awaits her in the future, showing Swain and Katherina behind Pantheon - probably later enemies she has to face. Probably faced them or is about to face them already when we are in Arcane S1 though! I still think that Swain is the one that killed Mel's brother.
This video is very interesting and confusing for the community bc we don't know what is real or if is a complete production of her mind. The scene were she protects the little lamb in her arms could very well be a shuriman ritual as well (the blue guys seem to be painted and not actually skin is blue) and a flashback from her past but we don't know. Arcane S2 will probably shed some light on this to understand it better. After seeing her bio I believe this little lamb she holds and gives up with the blue bracelett symbolizes her son Kino which we know in S1 died. The blue kid holding the little lamb is probably him as well. It is written in her bio that she loved her son dearly who chose not to walk the way of the wolf "he found himself a fox among the wolves". She probably grieves in that shot of her doja cat moment since she has white and blue paint on her face- white for an innocent life and blue for Kino.
Imo the wolf Ambessa sees is looking like a real wolf that looks so much less menacing because, as being a part of Noxus later on, this is like her spirit animal. The lamb on the other side looks terrifying and so much different from the "still here" cinematic. Probably bc a real warrior does not wish for a swift death much like the vikings, who feel shame if they do not die on the battlefield. That's probably why the lamb looks like the menacing one here to her. BUT in both cases this only happends in a dire situation where the person has a vision/illusion (?) of kindred.
This video promotes 3 things: Arcane S2, the new skinline "chosen of the wolf" and the book novel that comes out 18th feburary of 2025: Ambessa - Chosen of the Wolf.
Also- i just realized Necrit's video is using Hollow Knight music in the background ❤ (specifically Greenpath)
Good reaction, don't worry the music video is really difficult to understand, even Necrit didn't notice that Ambessa was pregnant and he made a full video analyzing it lol
yeah i had no idea what was going on when the vid dropped i was half asleep, necrit gave us all the info though
I love watching his excitement when he explains the lore 😁
Btw in case you're interested, the S2 Chinese Theme Song Video just dropped:

Hey, you have shown interest in learning a bit more about the gameplay so maybe this video will be a good reaction, it explains step by step a fight and huge comeback by Faker's team in 2017.
