The whole prophecy thing sounds suspicious too. Feel like Oberon is trying to make it self-fulfilled by placing in people of his choice into the role.
God I really like Castoria.Originally Posted by Der Ritter
While reading about Oberon, I found this about Christoph Martin Wieland's epic poem Oberon:
And it make me thought, what if Oberon is trying to test Guda and Mash (while also trying to get Artoria to fulfil the prophecy) so in that way Titania could be summoned?Commanded to go to the Pope at Rome before consummating marriage with the kalif's daughter, Huon yields to temptation and the couple are thrown on a desert isle by Oberon, who had deserted his Titania with the vow never to return to her unless a human couple should be found who were absolutely faithful, since she had championed the faithless girl wife of an aged dotard. About the invented quarrel of Oberon and his queen, Titania, is centred the whole conception of Wieland's poem.
Mash and Guda reuniting after many adversities could allow the summoning of Titania so she and Oberon can reunite as well
Man, I loved that moment between Guda and Mash, even if it toppled the prophecy and shot Castoria's self-esteem even more. I could here Mash's theme from First Order playing in my head.

What I've thought all along. Then again, he didn't come up with it.
So the calamity has those deer horn-like things and its name is six characters long, so I'm feeling pretty safe to bet that it's Cernunnos (ケルヌンノス). Also, about the theory that the calamity is one of the three Velber "siblings", this new translation brings to light that it corrupts the mind. This matches with what we know about the other two, Altera/Sefar corrupts the body (animals became monsters during her attack) and the Little Sister/Prototype of the Goddess of Vengeance (from Gilgamesh's side story in Extella) corrupts the soul. Also, his second form is tree-like, and the mural from Extella Link has a tree-like monster.
I saw some people guess ケルヌンノス as well, it seems like a safe bet (mostly due to SMT). Not entirely certain on the Velber connections but it's not impossible.
But Cernunnos isnt that used.... In post 2000s SMT. Dunno if he was more popular back in the 80 90s...
Now i wonder if I that other artist is Kazuma Kaneko
I agree the horns and character amount matches, but what would the basis be for Cernunnos being some ancient evil entity beneath Britain?
I doubt we'll see any relevant development for the Velber Three outside of Extella.
Do we know what SMT Nasu takes inspiration from? Oberons wings are almost exactly like SMT Oberons, and what Nasu decided to name the Whore of Babylon, and some other stuff show he's clearly a SMT fan- just not sure which one is the big influence for everything.
Not to sure on this. Before we reach Norwich and actually have a chance to interact with Mashu, Oberon is pretty insistent when talking directly to Gudao that they should let go off Mashu, and he's insistent on following the prophecy until the very end, so sure it could be that kind of "I did everything in my power to keep you away from her just to prove your faith in her" but he seems to genuine when he says that he thinks it's for the best that you let her go (presumably in part because it makes the prophecy easier to fulfill).
He seemed pretty intent on finding her at first though didn't he? I mean that's the entire reason we go to Glouceseter after all. I don't think he really cared until Norwich.
If you ask me, its just Sion's Arc Drive
Sion uses this Barrel Replica in her Arc Drive, but it seems that she isn’t utilizing its original function.
So it's just a beam ain't it?
The question is, can you also use the actual real black barrel as a beam too, or is it just a replica function because Sion wants to be a simple ape sometimes?
Britain probably had the 'last form' of Cernunnos, Herne the Hunter who haunts Windsor forest.
Of course, here he is in the coast off of Norwich instead of Windsor...
Well there we go then
Do we know anything about the abilities of the fairy Lancelot?
She can fly, shoot lasers, and I think she's considered the strongest by most fae? But also it's said if one knight falls Knocknarea can invade pretty easily. There's not really much more that I remember.
Clearly, that part about Knocknarea being able to invade if one knight falls is setting up Queen Mab/Medb getting involved after Chaldea inevitably offs one of the Fairy Knights.
Her NP is Innocence Arondight, which involves her protruding two Arondights from her gauntlets. Unlike the other Fae Knights, she's the only one who has the actual weapon(s) of a KORT. It makes sense if she is the original owner and maker who bestowed it to Lancelot, since she could make another.

Also, given how strong Fae Lancelot was considering she beat Muramasa, it could be either Barghest or Sith first who fall in-story with Muramasa's aid.
