This event was such a well-timed one for Halloween. Cosmic horrors and Bloodborne-esque hunters that have BLOOD that will turn them into the beasts that they kill.
Easily digestible and on point. I like the fact that you talked about things beyond just the story of this event and made connections with information from other events. We will watch your career with great interest.
What a debut video. Not only consolidating a large amount of reading to begin with, but going further beyond the text of this event alone to explain both the external implications and inward connections to the greater part of lore - all in ~10 minutes. Super excited for upcoming videos. That said, making a video about them will not make the Seaborne accept you and adapt into cute anime girls.
You have perfectly summarized the elements of the Seabornes and their relationship with Sakdi and the event. And thank you for shedding light about the canonicity of Skadi Corrupted Heart, it completely gone over my head why she has a Seaborne summon to begin with and exactly what she is as an operator.
So basically aegir created the hunters to "hunt" the seaborns and creatod from seaborn's blood too cuz aegir mark them as their enemies? Geez this event is the most creepiest story I've ever read, alongside with CoU with the most darkest story
I mean it's more alike to Bloodborne. Bloodborne hunters are basically made from beast blood to hunt beast although they only consume the blood for superhuman strength however they're infecting themselves and turning into beast but it's still the same concept with the Abyssal Hunters with their Seaborn blood hunting Seaborns and possibly turning into Seaborns
Love the heavy Bloodborne/Lovecraft vibes here. Other than a few pronunciation errors here and there, I really like how the video goes. You pretty much answered all of my questions about the event. It seems as if the Seaborne aren't necessarily evil as much as they are a force of nature. Aegirians are so badass that I look forward to anything that happens regarding them, and knowing that Abyssal Hunters are part-Seaborne is purely amazing. The question remains: how will the Seaborne move forward if their progenitor is dead? Will they choose a new "alpha"? Maybe that's what the AU Corrupting Heart is...
The progenitor left the oracle before it dies, and Skadi is the only one who knows the content of the oracle. One hypothesis (according to the in-game dialogues of corrupting heart aka Skadi alter) is that in an alternative timeline Gladia failed to interrupt the Seaborne and Skadi told it the oracle, this results in Skadi's Seaborne nature overwhelms her human part (and probably making her into a very high-ranking Seaborne, if not a new progenitor), and Seabornes who receive the last oracle start evolving fast and eventually donimate all Terra, eliminating all existing civilizations.
Very well explained video, looking forward for your next lore video! I've always been thirsty for Abyssal/Aegir lore, and finally some stuff are answered in this event, also great that Skadi had her development character here. So far this is my favorite side story, because the plot is juicy but not hard to digest, at least for me lol.
I'm late 4 months but damn this is good... I don't read stories a lot because i know i wouldn't remember a thing, nor understand them... thank you, very helpful
im always glad to see more lore channels. I'll follow your stuff for sure your style is good. hitting the main points of the story and some background lore on the side without bloating the video
more sumarize of chapter stories and event stories please. Sometimes it's hard to understand the story and what exactly happend there. And I love how you narrate the story and explain it logically
God, I really needed a summary of this that wasn't on text. Especially one that was easy to the ears and such, but then again, I should've expected that since I've been following your reddit posts and gamepress lore ones as well. All excellent work, I can only thank you for introducing me to the lore of this wonderful game. I hope your RUclips career gets more attention as it goes on. Also, your voice is hot.
Excelente video. Just dropped by after finishing the Under Tides event on global. Love your videos, I'm super interested in Arknights lore and these are excelent to keep up with it. Hope to see more in the future!
I remember reading your lore write-ups back when Ch 7 was just released on CN. Never thought I'd see your work on youtube though. I look forward to whatever insights you may bring to the AK community in terms of lore and analysis. Btw tail fat lore when :3
The abbysal hunter story is similar to the manga Claymore. Manga about group of female warriors called claymore because of the big sword they're carrying. They exterminate monstrous being called Yoma. To fight Yoma more efficiently all the claymores have picese of yoma flesh in their body, if the claymores are not carefull to control their power they can mutate into more powerful yoma called Awakened One
8:42 - 9:01 ah I see but my personal head cannon is that Skadi the corrupting hear is seaborn/terrorfish just randomly came in contact his Skadi's blood and slowly turned into a clone of skadi with fragments of her memories, but remembers, two significant things, RI and the doctor who the corrupting heart tries and do to the doctor corrupt. Also I like to think that there are just two skadis roaming RI and everyone being confused as hell
Nice explanation i love it, are you perhaps gonna make a video about operator's lore too? For example like skadi the corrupting heart since she is the skadi from alternate timeline(?)
The Seaborn ideology is perfectly logical. If you think about only the objective goal for your race, which is to expand and survive, then you cannot do any better than how the Seaborn do it. Throwing your "Moral Compass" to the wind and doing everything in your power to simply survive and grow your race in numbers, including feeding your own corpse to your kin when you die. The First to Talk wanted to convince Skadi to join them, and become a Seaborn. It would be absolutely impossible for anyone to fight this perfect logic if they were alone. But Skadi wasn't alone. Gladiia intervened and reminded her that she has people she loves, people she would give her life for, a cause she would give her life for, greater than the survival of her own race. The idea of "Love" cannot be logically defined, because Love is fundamentally a measurement of one's capacity to go against logic for a cause. It's what separates you from a Seaborn, it's what separates you from all those no-lifers on the internet. As a footnote, the *operator* Skadi the Corrupting Heart, being based on the version of Skadi where Gladiia did not intervene, and Skadi succumbed to her Seaborn blood, is one of, if not my single least favorite personality in the game, and I would not be using her at all if it weren't for her invaluable utility.
1. The seabornes' influence is still affecting the hunters (likely what's causing the weird mark on her neck), and there's no telling when they might lose control. 2. We don't know much about the fleet since this is the first time it's ever been mentioned, but it's supposedly something that can help them fight back. 3. Thank you too!
1. Why did the Inquisitors even kill the bounty hunter at the beginning, as if they were hiding something? 2. What the heck is AEgir? I know it's a race and place before but now I'm confused 3. Didn't the real bishop get surprised when he learns the truth from the evolved seaborn? Didn't he know about it before? Being a member of the church 4. According to enemy intel in-game, the evolved seaborn description says: "The first beautiful living being to speak human language before civilized man. Seaborn." What are your thoughts on this?
Ooh a hivemind. I wonder if there will be a rogue 'individual' who decide to become our ally. Like Legion from Mass Effect. The idea of having a Seaborne operator sounds amusing.
@@庫倫亞利克 I was thinking actual seaborn rather than individuals with seaborn genes inside them. Like pure seaborn individual. Speaking of which, Mizuki is somewhat similar to those three right? Or maybe a more potent version of Andreana.
Skalter is the VERY dark version of the story where Amiya and Kaltsit dies and Skadi succumbs to her Seaborne cancer. Its our job to keep her away from that
Wait so, they’re at risk for becoming seabornes, but it’s possible for it to not happen? The gladiia part made it seem like it was inevitable, but skalter seems like a more positive what if? The “won’t happen anytime soon or at all” is confusing me
There's some willpower involved. If Skadi believes that she's a seaborne, she'll begin to turn into one. If she doesn't want to become a seaborne, she won't turn into one, and this second part is basically what Skadi Alter's profile is saying.
@@lauli-arknightslore4438 ohh okay thank you! It’s really nice to know there’s hope for them. Especially Gladiia causes she’s dope. Great video too btw!
Oh Hi! I just finished reading the story and im trying to find online if there's info of what happened to Kal'stit afterwards (I little spoiler is fine :D )
So does Skalter still has her own consiousness or her mind become like a seaborne that can speak? I kinda wish Skalter is Skadi after she regain her forgotten power or something. That kind of Arts in the form of songs like those Alive Until Sun Set group or something. But oh well.. Say, how does that AUSS group connect to AEgir and Skadi in anyway?
I'm mostly focusing on the CN side of things for this series so likely not. There should be a few summaries/explanations for Wolumonde floating around on the internet, I believe.
I don't think genders were ever mentioned and the text referred to them as "it". There's also this line during the fight with the bishop: "She watched the severed section of the tentacles. A few tiny buds poked their heads out of the nearly-transparent white." If this applies to all Seabornes then it seems like they can reproduce asexually by budding.
This event was such a well-timed one for Halloween. Cosmic horrors and Bloodborne-esque hunters that have BLOOD that will turn them into the beasts that they kill.

You forgot the climax of the story, where the Grand Inquisitor performs a feat never before dared on Terra: making Kal'tsit stop talking.

Amazing lore summary video mate keep it up
I started playing the game again because of this event. Love the Abyssal Hunter faction
This was very helpful and a great channel for arknights lore!
Very very good video man, congratulations 👏
Nice explanation i love it, are you perhaps gonna make a video about operator's lore too? For example like skadi the corrupting heart since she is the skadi from alternate timeline(?)
I'm mainly focusing on events for now, but if I find more time in the future I will consider that.
I’m coming back to this video once I finish reading the story myself.

8:36 abyssal hunters and furious
Great video! Thank u
1. Why does gladia think she's running out of time?
2. Why does she need to look for that specific fleet you mentioned?
3. Thanks!
1. The seabornes' influence is still affecting the hunters (likely what's causing the weird mark on her neck), and there's no telling when they might lose control.
2. We don't know much about the fleet since this is the first time it's ever been mentioned, but it's supposedly something that can help them fight back.
3. Thank you too!
Gladiia seems to be looking for a golden ship at the end of the event? Is this connected to the specter alter event?
Unexpected...but I'm looking forward to your future videos!
1. Why did the Inquisitors even kill the bounty hunter at the beginning, as if they were hiding something?
2. What the heck is AEgir? I know it's a race and place before but now I'm confused
3. Didn't the real bishop get surprised when he learns the truth from the evolved seaborn? Didn't he know about it before? Being a member of the church
4. According to enemy intel in-game, the evolved seaborn description says: "The first beautiful living being to speak human language before civilized man. Seaborn."
What are your thoughts on this?
The AEgir part really confuses me, specially now knowing that they aren't the same as the abyssal hunters
Essentialy,abyssal hunter are Claymore with bloodborne/h.p lovecraft inspiration...did i get that right?
Ooh a hivemind. I wonder if there will be a rogue 'individual' who decide to become our ally. Like Legion from Mass Effect. The idea of having a Seaborne operator sounds amusing.
We already have three rogue Seaborn individuals that decide to be our ally: Gladia, Specter and Skadi.
@@庫倫亞利克 I was thinking actual seaborn rather than individuals with seaborn genes inside them. Like pure seaborn individual.
Speaking of which, Mizuki is somewhat similar to those three right? Or maybe a more potent version of Andreana.
Seaborne might be strong.
BUT FAMILY IS STRONGER
Yes, after all, the Skalter is created if the Arknight what if scenario happen
Skalter is the VERY dark version of the story where Amiya and Kaltsit dies and Skadi succumbs to her Seaborne cancer. Its our job to keep her away from that
Thank god there are only a few months left until its released on global
May i ask you what music did you use in background ? pretty please ? :)
Your explanation is great bro!! Absolutely Subscribe to the channel!!

Yatta finally making a channel :)
Damn, that's certainly worth the ten minutes. Why is this still got so little views?
Oh Hi! I just finished reading the story and im trying to find online if there's info of what happened to Kal'stit afterwards
(I little spoiler is fine :D )
Ok, so... what the last ship of the Iberia fleet has of special for Gladiia to want it?
Did Specter return back from her crazed nun personality or is she back to the snarky shark personality?
So does Skalter still has her own consiousness or her mind become like a seaborne that can speak?
I kinda wish Skalter is Skadi after she regain her forgotten power or something. That kind of Arts in the form of songs like those Alive Until Sun Set group or something. But oh well..
Say, how does that AUSS group connect to AEgir and Skadi in anyway?
Will you do Twilight of Wolumonde sometime?
I'm mostly focusing on the CN side of things for this series so likely not. There should be a few summaries/explanations for Wolumonde floating around on the internet, I believe.
a walk in the dust pls?
Since Preluding Lights is releasing soon I'll be focusing on that first, but I will be going back on the previous events and make videos for them too.
Looking forward for those
will you please make the chapter 8 and 7 please? uwu
How did Kal’tsit appear out of nowhere did she like follow Skadi or something?
Skadi got her sword and Spectre's saw from RI engineers, who told Kal'tsit about it, and Kal went after her.
"Mon3tr Shoots a beam that collapses the church" aight... if thats not OP, i dont know what is...
I can't help but think it's Rayquaza using Hyper Beam lmfao
If you want to know how it looks look up the beta version of. Kal'tsit. It's the her S3 back then.
Aleni?
Neat video bruh
Wow so good ah
Lol this is definitely inspired by Bloodborne. Anyway thanks for the video.
Uga buga
Something something content creator
something something piece of clout
something something out of clout

Does the Seaborne has gender or are they genderless?
I don't think genders were ever mentioned and the text referred to them as "it". There's also this line during the fight with the bishop:
"She watched the severed section of the tentacles. A few tiny buds poked their heads out of the nearly-transparent white."
If this applies to all Seabornes then it seems like they can reproduce asexually by budding.
awau
