Honestly, it reflects. Furina, for the most part, is just a clueless child. She didn’t exactly know how to act like an archon, how Focalors was going to save fountaine, or how she really helped in the plan. All she knew is she had to pretend to be the new archon to save fountaine, yet not even slightly knowing how Focalors would do it. Focolars also said that Furina is the naive and human part of her
The cruelest thing was no doubt Focalors not telling Furina anything. Furina had to keep up the acting of an Archon for 500 years while being kept in the dark by her other half the whole time. In the meanwhile, she had to investigate the prophecy from scratch too. That shit sucks bruh...
Focalors probably had to keep Furina in the dark as she might spill if she knows anything For all they know, Celestia might suddenly knock on her front door for an interview
she had to do this without any help from the other Archons because she didn't know them all that well and she couldn't be sure if they were Celestia loyalists
The fact that she and Focalor is the first and only archon capable to fix their own nation problem without the help of the Travelers says a lot about their characters. Notice how the previous archon quest, we act as a hero? Now this time, we are a "bystander". Even if we contribute to the final court, it's just there to fulfill the prophecy.
Zhongli: Hello Well, to be fair his nation's "problem" is just a test designed by him to see if he can take off the training wheels. Worst case scenario Zhongli will just come back. There wasn't much of a problem to begin with.
LOL everything in Monstadt was also under control. Venti is on his way to deal with the thing stuck on Dvalin’s back, only until some random assholes came up and made Dvalin upset
@@opswhyyou7216tbh, Zhongli’s pretty manipulative imo. He’s the only archon who won’t tell us shit about Khaeri’ah- but will mention the heavenly principles when talking about Furina. Hella sus imo. Don’t hate him but, Focolars is my fav archon lol
@Les_bian that's why I like him and venti so much, they are hella sus, so naturally we will get more of their stories in the future. And this kinda makes them more relatable in a sense? They are friendly but won't tell you every deepest secret. They have their plans
Fun fact: in the quest it actually shows how many days she has been acting as the hydro archon. If you take 500 years times 365 days a year you get 182,500 days. When it shows “scene 1, scene 2 and so on” the scene represents the days she has lived
So Furina will aging after the "prophecy" being unfold. I cannot imagine what Neuvillette expression to be. First he saw Focalors die with devastating face. Now he should witness the very person he worked with for 500 years to be gone too. My man deserved happiness too :(
such is being an immortal, friendships are fleeting, you either become a shut in, a workaholic or a drunk to cope with the pain of knowing that all relationships will end and to you... it would have been but a few moments. immortals in this game cant stop catching L's i swear, its getting depressing af
@@keremtukel8178 I'm coping with this but maybe she got longevity, like you aren't immortal for years and get nothing from it... Oh who am I'm kidding, this is just hoyo twisting the knife
I love this Furina. She was so childlike, innocent and pure. She's not acting, she's being herself. The moment she cried as if broken, I cried as well. Seeing such a strong person who always showed her smile broken, it's heartbreaking.
Nah because everyone is still backstabbing Furina's character too much.... She's a human , pretending to be nothing she knew about and you keep comparing her lore to Rukkhadevata , Both sacrificed something but a human to do this role is HARD. I mean , we're already suffering so much and we're living only half of our lives forealz
People are much too obsessed with the title and status of a god rather than the actions befitting one. I think they don't care too much for her character simply because, she isn't one anymore.
rukhdevta's, dehrets and nabu malikatas sacrifice felt sad and impacctful but this one hit me right to the core, for 500 years, she did the same routine over annd over and over again, playing a charecter for 500 years, that to me seems much more cruel than any other sacrifice, i understand focalors reasoning but i cant help but hate for puttig furina through all that
Alright for those that haven't played the quest and is here. Here's the gist of it. The Oceanid Familiars of the previous Hydro Archon Egeria wished to be humans and so Egeria defying Celestia made them humans and thus the original 'sin' of Fontainians was born. Because of this sin the people of Fontaine is fated to dissolve into waters. After that Egeria was gone and Focalors one of her Oceanid Familiars that she turned into a human ascended as the new hydro archon. Focalors now is keft with the burden of saving all of Fontaine. Her plan involved in seperating her divine self and leaving only Furina in order to fool Celestia that she is letting the phropecy come true to a certain extent. All the while Focalors is in the Oratrice collecting Indementium in order to create a weapon capable enough to kill the very existence of the hydro archon which would then mean that Neuvilette will get his full powers back. Furina on the other hand pretended to act like a God despite being an ordinary human with not even a shred of power despite the fact that she has no idea what Focalors is doing aside for the fact that she is doing it for the sake of Fontaine. She lived for 500 years pretending to be someone she's not and all the while being in the blind and doing her own investigations for the sake of her people.
So in a sense.... Focalors pulled a Vergil, separating herself into two beings, her humanity and her divinity. Since her Humanity was without Immortality, she placed a curse on her that stopped her aging. And her Divinity Quietly Observed in the background. And since Focalors decided to basically kill herself, leaving her Human half to live. The prophecy is now broken and Furina is no longer divine in any sense.
imagine waking up without any memorie no parents no friends, being completely alone, no Power and no idea about anything, your Head is empty except the prophecy thing and somebody just tells you do the Act thingy and you will suffer for that... Furina lived a Hell. Im so happy that She's free now and can do whatever she wants.
From the start, Furina was born for one role in order to save everyone. She never been given a chance to live, and she already been given the harsh task to anyone could endure to trick the Heavenly Princples. If she had waver even once, then it all would have fell. The game and everyone else may say she wasnt thr Archon, or the real Hydro Lord. And she have been the human halve to Forcaoler, she was STILL the Archon the Nation needed. Got to put respect on her name.
"all will eventually end in a magnificent and dramatic trial and everyone will be saved"... she laughed, we cried... we lost the queen of her words, left us her human form to protect for the rest of the time being...
Furina couldn't realize the thing she had been waiting her entire life for, the trial, would destroy the other thing she knew, "do not let them know you aren't the Hydrp Archon"
Her and Navia's. I mainly use JP voice but just for Fontaine's Archon Quests I switched to EN just because theyre THAT good. You can actually feel their pain when you hear them cry.
Tbh, I usually just play w/ ENG, but Fontaine especially had fantastic voice acting. Oh, and Dottore’s Eng voice is my favorite. Then again though, I feel like if I listened to Arlecchino in any other language, it wouldn’t feel right- just due to hearing her voice in Lazzo in eng.
Yes, although technically Venti, Zhongli, Ei, and Nahida surrendered their Gnosis cutting their ties to the Heavenly Principles which means we have 1 sovereign dragon, 1 archon in Natlan (Unless Schezniya still uses their Gnosis), and four gods without their archon status.
@@itsjameskmartin Yes, but their thrones or authorities still exist in Teyvat (they power is not with the dragons like Neuvillette). And I guess they're still gods even if they don't possess the gnosis... But Foçalors deleted herself, the position of the hydro archon, and returned the power to Neuvillette... that is a huge milestone for Genshin lore.
@@itsjameskmartinPyro archon is currently dead as well; we go to Natlan to witness the birth of a new Pyro Archon (this entire game has been us going backwards in time towards the cataclysm)
Pretending to be someone else for 500 year and not being free to be yourself. Torture is definitely the word for it. Countless nights shedding at night and not being able to confide in anyone. Now that is HELL.
This ^^ I love them both equally now- which is so surprising since Venti was my absolute favorite character since the beginning and I’ve never gotten attached to anyone the same way for years! Furina’s such a well written character, so it makes sense lmao
The fact that Furina is a part of Folcalors reminds me of the story quest of Ann from the Narzissenkreuz, she is also a part of Mary-Ann that lives by herself.
Damn, this is basically an otome isekai. Naive girl got isekai and must act to prevent the bad route. The concept is mostly the same, still amazing tho.
don't forget how neuvifuri is basically that one manhwa trope where one party takes a situationship for granted and only regrets when they lost it lmao
rukhdevta's, dehrets and nabu malikatas sacrifice felt sad and impacctful but this one hit me right to the core, for 500 years, she did the same routine over annd over and over again, playing a charecter for 500 years, that to me seems much more cruel than any other sacrifice, i understand focalors reasoning but i cant help but hate for puttig furina through all that
They are laterally the same person. One half was Devine the other not, it is similar to the triune nature of God each part distinct but the same simultaneously. Also there was no other way, The heavenly principles made sure of that. The true culprit was the heavenly principles.
It's actually great how at first glance Nahida and Furina are completely different, since while Nahida is a forgotten god imprisoned for 500 years, Furina was a popular and beloved god who presided over her nation. And yet Furina was also in a sense imprisoned for the last 500 years, and unlike Nahida's incarceration Furina willingly accepted this sentence.
No, she is Foçalors human split and cursed her by immortality to act like an hydro Archon, while focalors collected indemmitium from the Oratrice, that was a way to fool celestia and recover neuvillete powers doing a death sentence to herself and free People and Furina from the sin.
Furina talking to Focalors reminds me of Kiana talking with Sirin in Chapter 25 - in the least because both instances seem to be in a different plane of conscience
This is shocking I actually theorized she could have different persona doe to her eyes and changing yin Yang reaction but actually seeing serious Focalors WITH swapped eyes confirmed it, of course the only difference is that I thought Furina herself staged her greatest deception theatre.
Actually, It is not swapped eyes. Just that furina's and focalors' right are diferentes. Surely i dont have To explain, furina's looking to the front (the player front, her front) and focalor is looking to her front (the players back, her front) I explained horribly but because its common sense you got it
@@unicorniomagico612 This would make things clearer on Lyney and Lynette's trial - instead of being split personalities, it's just her trying to look at things from dual perspectives. Since she was trying to put on the front of Focalors, and at the same time also looking at it from her own perspective
Focalors just did a Rukkhadevata 😭 why is the quest keeps killing best Archons? First Makoto, then Rukkhadevata, now Focalors. Now we know 100% for sure that Celestia is one true enemy and Fatui now has my 100% support from now on!
So basically fontaine has no archon now since furina is a human and focalor is dead, will there be like a newborn archon? I dont get how she is human when she lived for over 500 years
Technically, Neuvillette is the new Hydro Archon in all but name, as Focalor's execution gave the Hydro Archon's authority back to the Hydro Dragon(Neuvillette), so that he can pardon Fountaine for their "original sin" Atleast that's from my understanding
NO Furina destroyed the throne of Hydro-archon itself ending the cycle of Hydro Archons, permanently. There will be no more Hydro Archons she destroyed the status itself. She returned the power of the gnosis to the original holder the Hydro Dragon Sovereign himself A.K.A Neuvillette. He's not an Archon he just regained the power that divinity which originally belonged to him but was stolen by Heavenly principles and given to a being to assume the status of an archon. So there are only 6 seats remaining in Celestia now. Technically all the other Archons severed their ties with Celestia by giving away their gnosis however the seats still remain. So whoever can utilize the power of the gnoses can assume the status of an Archon. That is no longer the case for Hydro that is the main difference.
Furina hating every second of pretending but believing that fantainians will die because of her if she ever says anything about the situation is the worse bro. She has a such a horrible life
Furina seems immature, shy and childish. No wonder she suffered for 500 years. She even wants to sacrifice her own life and enjoyment just to prevent the prophecy. She wants to save the Fontainians.
I put the scene numbers in a calculator because I had a feeling I knew what number they were going to show me….I knew what I was gonna see, but it still hurt nonetheless..
Let me get this straight Is furina and focalor basically like how piccolo seperate himself...? Or furina is just another oceanid made into human but created specially for this?
Focalors is heads Furina is tails Coin analogy Foca separated the tail (Furi) and made her act as the archon while the head stayed inside the Oratrice to gather Indemnitium generated from trials
Focalors was one of the oceanids that asked Egeria (the original Hydro archon) to make them human, After Egeria's death and ascending to godhood, Focalors separated her divine side and her human side, the human became Furina, the person she would like to be if she had stayed human, then Focalors "cursed" her with not being able to age or die until Focalors does, after that she had Furina play the part of the Archon, while Focalors was inside the clock tower accumulating power, all in a bit to deceive Celestia long enough to pull off her plan.
Несмотря на то, что Фокалорс не рассказала о своём плане, Фурина всё равно продолжвла играть свою роль. Просто потому что она так сильно доверяла "самой себе".
So... all the theories of furina not really being the archon have been right? She is not really focalors, but just pretending to be her, even tho she was kind of... a part of focalor that split off? And the real archon was really in the oratrice all along, with the gnosis? This is a bit confusing, but i am happy for all the theorists that have called that.
Yes, she's supposed to be focalors humanity. But hey, we all know that means she's never been the archon and we are just using a regular human playable.
Im waiting for the OST of this scene to be released. It kinda sounds like, and gives the vibe of Chopin's Prelude in Em "Suffocation". But if anyone already knows the title of that piece, i'd appreciate it a lot.
I’m still a little confused on one aspect, how exactly was Celestia deceived? I understand that she basically deleted the 7th archon spot in that there will never be a hydro archon again but I’m not exactly sure how that is considered deception? Also the fact that Celestia haven’t reacted in any was is creeping me out a bit, you’d think they pop down for a quick chat to ensure that Nuevillette (being a dragon) doesn’t gain power
From what I gather, Furina was there to deceive the heavenly principles into thinking that the hydro archon is there with the fontainians, while focalors is working behind gathering enough ammunition to kill a god. the prophecy is bound to happen sooner or later, but it cannot be done without the hydro archon. That is why when the god-killing machine is ready, Focalors sacrificed herself so that there will be no "hydro archon weeping alone while fontainians dissolve," which is what the prophecy states. I could be wrong though.
The deception was that Focalors let the "fate" of the prophecy play out through Furina but was, at the same time, sneaking around in the background to charge up the oratrice. So she was able to let the prophecy play out but still save all Fontanians.
The deception was that Furina was the hydro archon and was going to let the prophecy play out. She could not let Celestia learn of her plans to save Fontaine as any subversion of Celestia's rule will cause divine retribution. “Also the fact that Celestia haven’t reacted in any was is creeping me out a bit, you’d think they pop down for a quick chat to ensure that Nuevillette (being a dragon) doesn’t gain power” I agree with this part. Deleting an Archon seat and returning its power to the dragon sovereign seems like an act on par with destroying a Gnosis (something Nahida used to threaten Dottore). Neuvilette turning Fontianians into true humans seems like a crime on par with Egeria turning oceanids into pseudo humans. Maybe Focalors was banking on the fact that Neuvilette, being a dragon sovereign outside Celetia's jurisdiction, would not call down the wrath of Celestia? Still, this makes we wonder if Celestia is still active at all. We know them to at least be dormant but surely deleting an Archon seat would wake them up? Maybe Celestia truly is none the wiser? From their perspective, the prophecy happened as planned. The Hydro gnosis still exists, the statues still work, and hydro visions are still being handed out, so there's no reason to think the Hydro seat was deleted, maybe Celestia thinks Furina stepped down and made Neuvilette the Archon (that may be an extra layer to the deception)?
I think that what Celestia can monitor (or has a wake up alert) is two things: 1. The Gnosis and Authority running 2. The Fate (Fontaine flooded with Focalors as the Archon crying in her throne) So The Fate must run as expected, and the authority cannot be destroyed, must be passed to someone else. To deceive Celestia, everything must be done to make the prophecy appear to be fulfilled. And to save the citizens from dissolving because they are a product of original sin, it is necessary save humans with the power of authority but not under the control of Celestia so return it to the Dragon sovereign. Nahida said that the Heavenly Principles are sleeping, but if the Gnosis is destroyed, then it will wake up. Neuvillete said that the Authority is the power of the Dragons stolen by Celestia to the Archons, and only if there is no Archon he can recover his Authority.
I'm kind of confused as to why and how did Furina recieve a vision. I thought Celestia gave people visions? Were they like "oh you're the who's been tricking us for 500 years, here's a vision for a job well done" or is Nuevillette the one giving hydro visions now?
No furina is the human side of focalors, basically focalors human body without her divine power and abilities and just a human Both side of the same coin
Basically mihoyo combining and recycling. Inazuma+SUmeru archon quest = Fontaine archon quest so expect Natlan to have child like Archon with divinity is in another dimension LMAO
I guess kinda? More like she’s the mortal, ordinary, powerless half of a god. From what I understand what the Hydro Archon did was split herself into two halves, the divine immortal half becoming Focalors (and also the one left with all the memories), and the completely human Furrina. So you could technically call either of them a clone, but it’s not entirely accurate.
People be like: OMG, the best AQ! Also Mihoyo using the same plot since Inazuma, but in alternative ways: Ei and Raiden - Nahida and Greater Lord - Furina and Focalors!
So Furina is Focalos without brain, and Focalors is a brain without body? Edited: thank you guys for replied and liked my comment 😘 But I just make a little fun about Furina (brain=Intelligence), sorry for my bad English 😂 Edit 2: updated 4.2 patch, i'm sorry everyone, I feel so sorry for made joke at Furina.
If I had a nickel for every *female* archon that has an alternate counterpart that she happens to have a bond with, I’d have three nickels
Can you share one with me
“Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened thrice”

Pretending to be someone else for 500 year and not being free to be yourself. Torture is definitely the word for it. Countless nights shedding at night and not being able to confide in anyone. Now that is HELL.
Focalors, the TRUE mirror-maiden 🥺
She basically erased her memory and left herself a video recording lmao
so lowkey like rose quartz from steven universe
I love her so much. I haven't loved another archon after Venti.
Too bad but she died
@@rakuun8986 I meant I love Furina not Focalors. I know Focalors died but I am not as attached to her as I am with Furina.
Yepp, Venti is my fav character, and now the Furina is the other special archon for me after the Venti ofc.
This ^^ I love them both equally now- which is so surprising since Venti was my absolute favorite character since the beginning and I’ve never gotten attached to anyone the same way for years! Furina’s such a well written character, so it makes sense lmao
When she decided to sacrifice, she was already a perfect god. I love her
The fact that Furina is a part of Folcalors reminds me of the story quest of Ann from the Narzissenkreuz, she is also a part of Mary-Ann that lives by herself.
talking about well written genshin characters i can say she's the best one
Focalor voice so soothing and calming, im still sobbing she didn't deserved to die ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
Damn, this is basically an otome isekai. Naive girl got isekai and must act to prevent the bad route.
The concept is mostly the same, still amazing tho.
don't forget how neuvifuri is basically that one manhwa trope where one party takes a situationship for granted and only regrets when they lost it lmao
rukhdevta's, dehrets and nabu malikatas sacrifice felt sad and impacctful but this one hit me right to the core, for 500 years, she did the same routine over annd over and over again, playing a charecter for 500 years, that to me seems much more cruel than any other sacrifice, i understand focalors reasoning but i cant help but hate for puttig furina through all that
Agreed. I get why she did it but it is still cruel.
That's why she is willing to execute herself in the end. Although, they, in a sense, the same person.
Furina's and Nahida's plot twists hit me really hard.. both so young and innocent suffering a cruel fate for 500 years.... 💔
They are laterally the same person. One half was Devine the other not, it is similar to the triune nature of God each part distinct but the same simultaneously. Also there was no other way, The heavenly principles made sure of that. The true culprit was the heavenly principles.
It's actually great how at first glance Nahida and Furina are completely different, since while Nahida is a forgotten god imprisoned for 500 years, Furina was a popular and beloved god who presided over her nation. And yet Furina was also in a sense imprisoned for the last 500 years, and unlike Nahida's incarceration Furina willingly accepted this sentence.
The Fontaine archon quest was definitely peak. Crazy we still got two more Nations and 3 more worlds to explore, I might just explode 😂
Might be 4-6 more; we have Remuria coming up (like Enkanomiya) and maybe more underground civilizations in Natland and Snezhnaya
I really like the original Furina and when it still comes out in present day. She is gentle and pure.
Oh Furina... having to play a role for centuries for the bigger goal... I hope she can live happily and freely now...
“i am a shadow, the true self”
You’re not me!!!!
Man she was just a human all this time… and during the trial she must have thought what was it all for. 499 long years and her identity was out 😭
So furina was a normal human before.....
She has been always a human.
Technically, she’s an oceanid but Legally yes.
Oceanid first, then human, then archon.
@@basedkaiser5352i think its oceanid, then archon, then half human + immortality cursed, and last fully human + vision
No, she is Foçalors human split and cursed her by immortality to act like an hydro Archon, while focalors collected indemmitium from the Oratrice, that was a way to fool celestia and recover neuvillete powers doing a death sentence to herself and free People and Furina from the sin.
the second 'furiinaa..' fills me with a joy indescriptible to human language
Furinnaaaaa
"This was my final lesson for you, -kiana- Furina."
I don't need this
Bro-
*Inserts the song "Girl in the Mirror"*
If i had a penny for every single tear that genshin players have shed well watching the quest, i would be the new richest guy in the world
Furina talking to Focalors reminds me of Kiana talking with Sirin in Chapter 25 - in the least because both instances seem to be in a different plane of conscience
"mirror me" FURINA BEING SUCH A CUTIE PATOOTIEEE
Why is furina like a lost child
Cause she is.
Basically when focalor left she didn't tell furina about any of this so in a sense she kinda is a lost child
In this scene, Furina had literally just been born. She basically is a child in this moment.
Because I'm pretty sure she's pretty much literally just been born here.
This is shocking I actually theorized she could have different persona doe to her eyes and changing yin Yang reaction but actually seeing serious Focalors WITH swapped eyes confirmed it, of course the only difference is that I thought Furina herself staged her greatest deception theatre.
Actually, It is not swapped eyes. Just that furina's and focalors' right are diferentes. Surely i dont have To explain, furina's looking to the front (the player front, her front) and focalor is looking to her front (the players back, her front) I explained horribly but because its common sense you got it
@@unicorniomagico612 This would make things clearer on Lyney and Lynette's trial - instead of being split personalities, it's just her trying to look at things from dual perspectives. Since she was trying to put on the front of Focalors, and at the same time also looking at it from her own perspective
The way focalors speak reminds me of rose quartz.
*oh.*
*steven universe flashbacks*
all the archons are like let's have an alternate counterpart and not tell zhongli
Is Amber Lee still the one voicing her? Damn VAs are really amazing
Yup, she voices both of them.
Whatever. Furina will ALWAYS be the Hydro Archon in my heart.
Im ugly crying rn
Nice pfp ;)
Focalors just did a Rukkhadevata 😭 why is the quest keeps killing best Archons? First Makoto, then Rukkhadevata, now Focalors.
Now we know 100% for sure that Celestia is one true enemy and Fatui now has my 100% support from now on!
The Fatui sure looks... "good" in recent times, but we should not forget how they tried to submerge whole Liyue just to lure the Geo Archon.
everything happens for a reason.. without them the "archons" we
have now are not here today
@@miradaewhitespell2790even children need to eat their vegetables at some point.. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE THAT THEY CAN DO
@@miradaewhitespell2790wasn't that just a plot arranged by Signora and Zhongli together to see how liyue faces such dangers without their archon?
But the true enemy is the Abyss itself. Khaenri'ah is holding off the Abyss for too long.
She almost break on her role, its like the time leap experience by Houin Kyouma.. This is torture but she didnt break character..
So basically fontaine has no archon now since furina is a human and focalor is dead, will there be like a newborn archon? I dont get how she is human when she lived for over 500 years
She was cursed by focalor, that's why she lived for so long, and yes, Fontaine don't have an archon anymore
Technically, Neuvillette is the new Hydro Archon in all but name, as Focalor's execution gave the Hydro Archon's authority back to the Hydro Dragon(Neuvillette), so that he can pardon Fountaine for their "original sin"
Atleast that's from my understanding
Tevat doesn't even need Archons honestly.
@@whateverthisis389 oooh ok ok thanks alot for telling me, i wasnt sure if my theory was correct
NO Furina destroyed the throne of Hydro-archon itself ending the cycle of Hydro Archons, permanently. There will be no more Hydro Archons she destroyed the status itself. She returned the power of the gnosis to the original holder the Hydro Dragon Sovereign himself A.K.A Neuvillette. He's not an Archon he just regained the power that divinity which originally belonged to him but was stolen by Heavenly principles and given to a being to assume the status of an archon. So there are only 6 seats remaining in Celestia now. Technically all the other Archons severed their ties with Celestia by giving away their gnosis however the seats still remain. So whoever can utilize the power of the gnoses can assume the status of an Archon. That is no longer the case for Hydro that is the main difference.
Truly an "I'm you." moment 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
O7 to furina for being so brave and holding out for so long
Furina still my archon
I knew that Furina need all the hug that she can have from the beginning
Furina: A trial, huh... How exciting. I'll be looking forward to it.
oh this did not age well for her
Focalors :'(
Furina deserves to be Hydro Archon despite not being born as one
Furina hating every second of pretending but believing that fantainians will die because of her if she ever says anything about the situation is the worse bro. She has a such a horrible life
after all this time we were hoping she will be hydro archon but now we know she was just a body of a god not a real god
Furina Can't Cook! ruclips.net/video/VNLHleUdWXQ/видео.html
FURINA T_T
Furina seems immature, shy and childish. No wonder she suffered for 500 years. She even wants to sacrifice her own life and enjoyment just to prevent the prophecy. She wants to save the Fontainians.
I put the scene numbers in a calculator because I had a feeling I knew what number they were going to show me….I knew what I was gonna see, but it still hurt nonetheless..
What number did they show that hurt? Assuming scenes were days, I assume enough to be nearly 500 years or something?
@@Jaker788 it's 499 something if you divide it by 365 alone, but it would probably be a perfect 500 if leap years were in
Let me get this straight
Is furina and focalor basically like how piccolo seperate himself...?
Or furina is just another oceanid made into human but created specially for this?
No, I think they are two seperate people that share a body, but I’m not really sure how to explain it
They are one same person but different parts of mind nd soul
Basically one coin 2 faces
Focalors is heads
Furina is tails
Coin analogy
Foca separated the tail (Furi) and made her act as the archon while the head stayed inside the Oratrice to gather Indemnitium generated from trials
Focalors was one of the oceanids that asked Egeria (the original Hydro archon) to make them human, After Egeria's death and ascending to godhood, Focalors separated her divine side and her human side, the human became Furina, the person she would like to be if she had stayed human, then Focalors "cursed" her with not being able to age or die until Focalors does, after that she had Furina play the part of the Archon, while Focalors was inside the clock tower accumulating power, all in a bit to deceive Celestia long enough to pull off her plan.
A trial that would end in the death of a goddess. I feel like if that was even muttered, that would still have ended in a twist.
It seems almost every archon just wanna retire in their own ways
3:10 yea she's good in my eyes
Несмотря на то, что Фокалорс не рассказала о своём плане, Фурина всё равно продолжвла играть свою роль. Просто потому что она так сильно доверяла "самой себе".
This must be the justice, that belongs to you.
I heard on the internet that furina and Focalors are the same voice actor. I didn't know that Focalors had a different tone from furina.
me and my self as child be like:
Be not afraid.
Bilically accurate angel lol
this is flashback 500 years ago right
So... all the theories of furina not really being the archon have been right?
She is not really focalors, but just pretending to be her, even tho she was kind of... a part of focalor that split off? And the real archon was really in the oratrice all along, with the gnosis?
This is a bit confusing, but i am happy for all the theorists that have called that.
Yes, she's supposed to be focalors humanity.
But hey, we all know that means she's never been the archon and we are just using a regular human playable.
SHES SO PRETTY OMG 😭
Madame Focalor and Dolcezza Furina.
"be not afraid" focalors holy shit
Hmm?
Furina... Furinaaa....
Holding Furina tighter.
Why do I have seele vibes in here
Im waiting for the OST of this scene to be released. It kinda sounds like, and gives the vibe of Chopin's Prelude in Em "Suffocation".
But if anyone already knows the title of that piece, i'd appreciate it a lot.
I might be thinking that every female archon has their counterpart🤔🤔🤔
Seeing furina hurt like this while focalor has to sacrifice is making me even hate celestia even more. I cant wait to fight the final boss
So far the only archon without a double is Zhongli
Venti and Namelessbard
Makoto and Ei
Ruhkkadevata and Nahida
Focalor and Furina
Zhongli and John Lee
probably at the end for the last sacrifice in a similar way, Aether and Lumine.
3:18
insert Fly, My Wings - Mili here
After getting into playing limbus finishing canto 4 I understand this now
Furina
I only know Furina from the meme
Knowing this it sadden me
This is scene reminds me of Dorothy and Ozma from Return to oz.
I’m still a little confused on one aspect, how exactly was Celestia deceived? I understand that she basically deleted the 7th archon spot in that there will never be a hydro archon again but I’m not exactly sure how that is considered deception? Also the fact that Celestia haven’t reacted in any was is creeping me out a bit, you’d think they pop down for a quick chat to ensure that Nuevillette (being a dragon) doesn’t gain power
From what I gather, Furina was there to deceive the heavenly principles into thinking that the hydro archon is there with the fontainians, while focalors is working behind gathering enough ammunition to kill a god. the prophecy is bound to happen sooner or later, but it cannot be done without the hydro archon. That is why when the god-killing machine is ready, Focalors sacrificed herself so that there will be no "hydro archon weeping alone while fontainians dissolve," which is what the prophecy states. I could be wrong though.
The deception was that Focalors let the "fate" of the prophecy play out through Furina but was, at the same time, sneaking around in the background to charge up the oratrice. So she was able to let the prophecy play out but still save all Fontanians.
The deception was that Furina was the hydro archon and was going to let the prophecy play out. She could not let Celestia learn of her plans to save Fontaine as any subversion of Celestia's rule will cause divine retribution.
“Also the fact that Celestia haven’t reacted in any was is creeping me out a bit, you’d think they pop down for a quick chat to ensure that Nuevillette (being a dragon) doesn’t gain power”
I agree with this part. Deleting an Archon seat and returning its power to the dragon sovereign seems like an act on par with destroying a Gnosis (something Nahida used to threaten Dottore). Neuvilette turning Fontianians into true humans seems like a crime on par with Egeria turning oceanids into pseudo humans. Maybe Focalors was banking on the fact that Neuvilette, being a dragon sovereign outside Celetia's jurisdiction, would not call down the wrath of Celestia? Still, this makes we wonder if Celestia is still active at all. We know them to at least be dormant but surely deleting an Archon seat would wake them up?
Maybe Celestia truly is none the wiser? From their perspective, the prophecy happened as planned. The Hydro gnosis still exists, the statues still work, and hydro visions are still being handed out, so there's no reason to think the Hydro seat was deleted, maybe Celestia thinks Furina stepped down and made Neuvilette the Archon (that may be an extra layer to the deception)?
I think that what Celestia can monitor (or has a wake up alert) is two things:
1. The Gnosis and Authority running
2. The Fate (Fontaine flooded with Focalors as the Archon crying in her throne)
So The Fate must run as expected, and the authority cannot be destroyed, must be passed to someone else.
To deceive Celestia, everything must be done to make the prophecy appear to be fulfilled. And to save the citizens from dissolving because they are a product of original sin, it is necessary save humans with the power of authority but not under the control of Celestia so return it to the Dragon sovereign.
Nahida said that the Heavenly Principles are sleeping, but if the Gnosis is destroyed, then it will wake up.
Neuvillete said that the Authority is the power of the Dragons stolen by Celestia to the Archons, and only if there is no Archon he can recover his Authority.
I'm kind of confused as to why and how did Furina recieve a vision. I thought Celestia gave people visions? Were they like "oh you're the who's been tricking us for 500 years, here's a vision for a job well done" or is Nuevillette the one giving hydro visions now?
So is furina a clone of a God ?
No furina is the human side of focalors, basically focalors human body without her divine power and abilities and just a human
Both side of the same coin
Basically mihoyo combining and recycling. Inazuma+SUmeru archon quest = Fontaine archon quest so expect Natlan to have child like Archon with divinity is in another dimension LMAO
I guess kinda? More like she’s the mortal, ordinary, powerless half of a god. From what I understand what the Hydro Archon did was split herself into two halves, the divine immortal half becoming Focalors (and also the one left with all the memories), and the completely human Furrina. So you could technically call either of them a clone, but it’s not entirely accurate.
0:05 is stuck in my head
fr
my theory was true! Furina is multiple people.
Others: Tatakae
People be like: OMG, the best AQ!
Also Mihoyo using the same plot since Inazuma, but in alternative ways: Ei and Raiden - Nahida and Greater Lord - Furina and Focalors!
Venti and The Bard...
probably at the end Aether and Lumine.
I think only Zhongli does not have an alter ego, to be sacrificed yet...
That is theme
@@RojirigoD did his exuvia count? he did just chuck what looked like his dead body at his kids lol
I already knew it that Furina is not hydro archon
I am Thou, Thou art I
help i rlly like the piano in the bg in this scene. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHATS THE TITLE OR THE PIANO PLS 😭😭
the last rose of the sinner
I wish she would’ve given elemental powers
i hope furina spends the rest of her life w neuvillette
I knew she was a doppelganger at start.
So Furina is Focalos without brain, and Focalors is a brain without body?
Edited: thank you guys for replied and liked my comment 😘
But I just make a little fun about Furina (brain=Intelligence), sorry for my bad English 😂
Edit 2: updated 4.2 patch, i'm sorry everyone, I feel so sorry for made joke at Furina.
No, go play the game
Pretty much
You just need to think their connection like a Coin
@@legna1932wrong
No... did you even do the quest?
I ship furina with focalors 😃
They are same person technically 😭✋🏻
