    Hope you all enjoyed this video! I've been wanting to cover the Conan lore in smaller chunks for quite a while, and it seemed like The Kinscourge was the most appropriate first choice, given that his armour has been part of my channel & videos for quite a few years now. This video was definitely inspired by VaatiVidya's amazing Dark Souls lore explanations, hope you all like it!

      I just hope update 3.0 isn't just more new placeables and a new style of building the game needs a regular , thing like an invasion by pirates on the coast, probably just more random monster attacks, or something like rotational invasion areas on each map.

    After knowing his history you realize that killing him is a mercy, our freedom of the exiled lands is his freedom from his curse. As the old journey diary said, defeating him is ending a long time tragedy, that's what makes for me his rest in peace a bigger archievement then obtaining the other pieces. Truly one of the few enemies in this hell of place who deserves to be respected.

I am really curious how you managed to pull that scene off, especially with the hand holding. Hat's off. That all must of taken some time to get right. Awesome work.

      There aren't any children in CE, even with mods 😂 That scene was three NPC's with the middle one scaled down below the vanilla scalar limits. His animation is a Praise to Mitra dance (I believe) stalled on a single frame, and he's lined up just right with the mother figure so it looks like he's holding her hand/arm. Glad you enjoyed it!

    I always thought that the Kinscourge, in his madness, eventually betrayed and killed Telith. There's a odd female ghost in a gibbet/cage in the Black Keep, and most of his derived weapon names are like "Betrayal" and "Telith's Lament" and such.

    • @Eradicati0nn
      @Eradicati0nn  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I did think that initially, but some pieces of lore indicate that he locked himself in The Black Keep to ensure he couldn't harm Telith, Xalthar or Xaltana.
      I believe Telith's final resting place is at Imi's Cradle on her island, especially as the old journey system used to refer to her ghost being present on said island

      The look was adapted well, I even like the helmet's face better than any official Frazetta sculpture I've seen.

    there are a few questions I always had questions about that I never saw anyne touch on.
    we know the serpent men ended up in the volcano. we know they were pretty manuplitave and the lemurians hated them. But how and why did the giant kings meet and befriend them? it cant ever be as simple as 'oh yeah he's my friend' he was here first so you humans cant touch them or we throw down. Why?
    There are these weird sand beast/ mutts in th deseart around ine singlar temple. Why? and why are they not found anywhere else in the world?
    what is the full official story of the frost temple. from what I understand it was sumoned her by sheer accident from the outer dark, is that how that lore rolls?
    Freya talks about how she had a hand in bringing the the noethern people here and Ymir's daughter is among them. why if she's Asir as she claims she is?
    there's also the smaller obscure stories as well that aren't touched on either. like that fort that was beseiged in days gone by, and a few others that few talk about either like deketo and her place in the jungle.
    this is why that game is so fun, it's diverse histories that happem all over the map.

      It’s the previously witch queen, razma is her own persona, my understanding is that the lemurian queen or “witch queen” transfer her consciousness into a mask which later became known as “the mask of witch queen” and from that mask she managed to possess razma’s body, so basically the witch queen needed a host or in that case a body.
