You'll get the rest of those Kintokis someday, I believe in you.
I just got another idea about the Norse Lostbelt. What if the divergence is that the gods managed to win at Ragnarok and permanently kill/seal away the giants? However, without destruction there's no new life being born, so the world stagnates. The Norse gods could actually be the villains of the chapter, becoming tyrants desperately clinging to their power as the world slowly rots away around them.
Then Ritsuka & co come around, freeing Surtur and leading an army of giants and disillusioned humans to overthrow the gods and destroy the current order so that new life can be born from its ashes.
Any thoughts? To me it seems like an interesting idea in line with how Nasu uses the Singularities/Lostbelts to play with classic dichotomies of good and evil (like making Arturia the villain of the Camelot Singularity), and suggests a possibility for how our heroes could be bringing about Ragnarok (which, given the setting, is almost certainly going to be featured in some way) without being "bad guys" in doing so.
Are you saying that it's not about preventing Ragnarok, but Ragnarok is the answer?I have Thor: Ragnarok flashbacks now.
Come visit Mobius Space whereand post Type-Moon stuffquite rarelytranslators gather
If Ragnarok was completely prevented I don't think the mountains would constantly be on fire.
No joke, aside from space constraints is there any reason that couldn't actually be done? Shunting all the Lostbelt inhabitants into the Greater History of Man would be an obvious way to resolve the conflict without needing to commit cosmic genocide. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if something like that actually happens at some point.
Maybe the gods prevented Ragnarok by literally stopping time in some fashion (an even more literal take on the forced stagnation idea), so the burning parts will keep burning for eternity but the fires won't spread to consume anywhere else. Or the fires are from Surtur or someone else leading a new rebellion against the gods. There's a number of possibilities that'd still be consistent with my idea.
Maybe. I just think they're saving up having a pantheon of gods as the opponents for Lostbelt 4. I mean if we have to fight Odin and Thor this chapter, Qin Shi Huang is gonna feel real underwhelming.
Those are volcanoes, they are mentioned in Bryn's interlude, particularly Katla
My guess is that we gonna get a lot of them active on the map
Yeah, I expect him to be comparable to Ozy or even more at least.
His tomb itself would have plenty of Mystery and free to anyone's imaginative mind.
Something
Not to mention combining the Huang and Di into one to make the title of the new line of emperors authentic and credible, or how dragons are symbolic of Chinese emperors. When you can imagine what the original Chinese emperors can do (like the Yellow Emperor), you can easily make QSH have something related to them on an equal level. But that's just my speculation lol. You can do so much with them, but Higashide already mentioned that he is at least King Arthur/Alex the Great level (in terms of fame I believe) and no less.
My guess based off of the singularities in part one and event stories is that because of all the references to Norse mythology in the chapter previews and titles that Lostbelt 2 will have zero connection to Norse Mythology at all
The location will be Australia and the major factions will be let’s say Etruscans and a race of sapient underground spider dogs
