Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
"I am salvation given form. Mankind's first hero, and his final hope."
Though Elidibus is speaking as the original Warrior of Light here, he's also--unknowingly--speaking his own truth.
We learn in elpis that the World Unsundered was (at least to the majority of mankind) a utopia. Peaceful, beautiful, stewarded by loving and disciplined people. A world that had no need for heroes, until the Final Days.
And the hero that stepped up? Not venat. Not azem. Venat waited; she knew she had to. Azem walked away and chose neutrality (likely at Venat's behest).
Themis. Elidibus. The youngest member of the Convocation, the analytical and gentle Emissary. HE stepped up and said "I'll become whatever is necessary to save our world." And he did.
And 13,000 years later, with his memories deteriorated to near nothing, that was what he had left. That one duty. Become whatever is necessary. Mankind's final hope.
And he brought that single-minded determination against us, because he couldn't remember that he once loved us.
I know people say the Scion Traveler’s Attire headpiece looks like it might suggest Azem’s Convocation mask design and maybe even suggest their glyph when compared against the summoning circle we see in 5.3 but I haven’t seen anyone point out this little nugget, traced in orange…
What have y'all named your Azems, and why? Personally I was originally gonna go with Athena, but then the Pandaemonium raids happened and threw that out the window, so I named her Ariadne instead because I figured Square wouldn't use that one (also the whole idea of the thread and guidance and the opportunity to make "grapes good wine better" jokes)
