- A testament to the Orokin's unrivaled technological advancement, left to rot in the wake of the collapse. The Orb Vallis is now home to the Corpus, who scavenge through the remnants of old in search of profit, and technology they can rework for their own needs.
Special thanks to OrokinPrince for helping me in the Vallis exploration, and for her primary theory on the biological gold structures!

Love this in-depth look into the rich history Orb Vallis. As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge with your fellow Tenno, StallordD.
Thats how mafia works
OMG I love your videos! :p
history of*
Make a StallordD NPC DE..
yeaaa StallordD NPC where we can spend standing to buy codex-files for more lore. that would be cool.
Even though the Orokins were so selfish and unforgiving, you cannot deny how advanced they were.
Yeah... but they kinda got but fucked by there own tech XD
Stealing one of the top comments.
So, the coolant flows down into the depths of Orb Vallis. Weeping Posts are supposed to repurpose it back onto the surface.
What's pumping that coolant up? Underneath the Vallis lies its heart. *LITERAL. HEART*
Salad V: “In time, you will know the true extent of my failings”
@@SPECTR_Eternal That actually somewhat makes sense. With all the mentions of the orokin turning inorganic things into organic things (the sentient and arguably the weeping posts and golden seeds) I wouldn't be surprised if they somehow managed to give the orb vallis a heart.
It seems somewhat far-fetched but not entirely outside the realm of possibility.
Pretty much the Space Romans.
In the history of the Earth, it is often the accepted theory that fungi were the lifeform capable of creating soils due to their capability to decompose rocks with their enzymes and able to draw energy from the environment without the need for photosynthesis. In the modern day, they also live by an almost symbiotic relationship with plant roots forming Hyphae (not 100% sure I got the spelling right) where they sort of feed eachother's biproducts.
Could the fungi seen in the Vallis be a part of the terraforming process rather than a side effect of it?
You spelled it right dont worry
you're exactly right, many fungi become so tightly bonded to plant roots that they actually extend their mycelium into the plant cells for more efficient nutrient exchange. the fungus can pull in minerals and other nutrients from a much wider range than the plant roots can alone, and in exchange the plant gives the fungus its excess sugars. the same fungal network can connect to different plants in the same area and exchange nutrients between them, and will even carry chemical signals from plant to plant.
Constructing buildings like we do currently is quite hard and labor-intensive. Considering that Orokin seemingly mastered gene manipulation, it's not that much of a stretch to imagine that at some point they have simply started growing buildings instead of constructing them using conventional means (probably both methods were used, depending on the circumstances).
You design the seed, plant it, then just drop required nutrients and materials on top of it as it grows (most of which will probably already be in the soil, and sunlight can provide energy, if available... there's also geothermal and other possible energy sources).
Orokin be like: *plants seeds*
*sprinkles some salt*
Boom
Building
Always a pleasure to know more lore by the master himself. Here’s to you, StallordD.
best warframe LORE teller ever
When I started playing Warframe, I immediately noticed the game has a very organic theme. By that I mean everything has either organic shapes, or is organic-like in nature. Titanfall has a mechanical theme. Sharp, pointed, and angular. You look at the technology and think; Machine. Warframe is organic in theme. Soft, curved, and flowing. You look at things and think; Flesh. Even the Corpus machines use an organic texture. The Orbiter is biological in components. Warframes are (spoilers) organic in nature. The Orokin probably grew cities like we grow forests. The Sentients are a blend of machine and organic-like composition. We Tenno even fight with some weapons made of flesh-like material! Pox, Hema, Lesion, Mire, etc!
Actualy orokin tech is the tecno organic stuff, moast corpus desings are boxy and mecanical, grinier goes for the submarine/steampubk astetic, infested dont have a desing but the tecnocide infested mass is a more militar aproach to oroking tech, infestation ita this tech gone maverick, sententi is baeicaly magic alien trees inorganic in natjre, and tenno stuff is actualy artesanal stuff they seem to have some core desings philosophys but lack the tech to truly make the bio-tech stuff, and cephalon tech is basicaly holagrams and superconductors. Warframe incorporate a variety of desings philosopys the bio stuff is in the forefron because orokin stuff in seem in game as bether.
hit me with the lore boi
yes
2:43 - woah, Corpus deep fry Unum's flesh! Must be tasty
TheExtremeEvoker they also needed salt and pepper
If they make you Cephalon(like Ordis but Lore telling instead of pun), I’ll totally buy it.
"This is what we know."
I love when you say that.
I really miss the aesthetic and thought put into nowadays designs. Everything is minimalistic, reduced to only the essential parts.
Hopefully we as a race become somewhat like the Orokin in the future and start to value beauty and design again.
Alexandrite can you give an example of real life? I would like to know
@@TheDragonfriday Its not too difficult to imagine, look at the boring older skyscrapers, hospitals, most bridges, apartment complexes, etc. Theres only a few exceptions. And now compare it to the grandeur of the Roman, Byzantine, Greek empires architecture.
Calabi-Yau Manifold I was thinking that but I’m just making sure we’re on the right page
Hmmm, I’m more of a fan of the Corpus’ favouring of function over form. Perfect functionality also has its own beauty, yes?
We'd run out of gold pretty fast, even if we mine the whole solar system for it.
Huh. Just playing warframe waiting for some crafting to be done and you upload. How convenient
I always thought the flowers were the source of oxium, which is why Nef would want to harvest and cultivate them, and why they shoot you up like Zephyr.
Damn, this video really makes you appreciate the level of thought DE put into the design of this world.
That's what I noticed too. I never knew that THIS much detail was put into it.
It's becoming really quite clear the technological branches the Orokin favored (Bio-mechanics of some kind), but that then brings up the issue of the Sentients.
The Sentients main threat towards the Orokin was that they adapted to Orokin Tech and then subverted it, forcing the Orokin to rely on less advanced tech. The implication being that the Orokin utilized a metal/energy/wiring (basically robotic Star Wars) type of technology, becoming proficient in more organic mechanical technology only when the Sentients began to subvert their robots. However, as more Orokin civilization is revealed, it kinda shows that the Orokin have always been big on organic-mechanical type of technology.
So my question is, what exactly did the Sentients subvert if the Orokin have always been using organic-tech? The tower on the Plains is clearly immune to Sentient subversion (as the Sentient had to wage an active war against it) and is a living structure, and the structures on the Orb Vallis show a heavy bias for organic-tech when terraforming. So what tech was that that the Sentients corrupted?
bioniclefan1995 it might be that traditional technologies were in use only during the beginnings of the Great War, and that it was developed over centuries or millennia, saying as we do not have a time scale.
The best way to interpret older organic Orokin tech would be akin to a plant, that grows and fixes itself when damaged, but has also a self-trimming nature to make so it is not to grow endlessly and be capable self-maintenance. The Sentient(from their name itself) have sentience, and have the ability to bestow such to other mechanic or organic matter. There is no "sentience" or mind in old Orokin tech which makes the Sentients capable of manipulating them. Now in comes the Warframe with not only 1 form of sentience, but two; one from the Tenno that controls it, and the Infested dwelling within the Warframe itself. Sentients may only be able to manipulate organic or mechanic matter that has no mind or any shred of sentience.
@@freeze_peach Actually, I think it would be the other way around. Based on the way that Hunhow was able to subvert Cephalon Suda, and the wording of Ballas as he describes the sentients' subversion in the Sacrifice ("Our weapons were their kin"), it seems likely that it was "dumb" weaponry that they were forced to revert to, where before they used proxies and pseudo-organic robotics.
If so, some of the more traditional Corpus tech and weapons may actually be advanced in ways that the Orokin never explored in as much depth, given that all the weapons they developed from that are more physical-projectile based. AFAIK, there isn't a single primed energy weapon in the game. Unless you count the Silva and Aegis Prime, and a blade of fire is kind of different from the plasma weapons and stuff that the Corpus has.
Could be that sentients and their tech were the orokin's original weapons, and they had to revert to digital tech and make enhanced versions like all the primed weapons (which were probably just normal weapons, beefed up with orokin tech). This probably wasn't enough, so we had to resort to using the poison to tge sentients, which is us, the Tenno
The sentient mothership that landed on the plains of eidolon was said to be late to the party and the tenno had already destroyed the orokin and scattered, thus leaving only Gara (and followers of the unum) to defend the tower. Its likely that the advanced technology assimilated by the sentients during the old war died with them, or it might be refering to the advanced energy weapons used by the teralysts and vomalysts.
Its also likely that the single greater sentient at plains of the eidolon does not possess the collective intelligence that allowed the sentients to subvert orokin technology during the old war (they all died, evidently)
wud make sense to cycle the coolant in to the ground and purify it there and pump back up fom the veepin towers. the orokin dig site looks wrong in some way like theres something that´s wrong and big time. if only we cud get smoke finger to talk
I was having withdrawal syndrome.
I NEED MA' LORE, PRODPUNK.
AND WE ALL LIFT!!!
AND WE'RE ALL ADRIFT TOGETHER, TOGETHER!!
DOOOON'T U DARE START THAT
@@shoobzy3431 TOGETHEEEEERRRR
Creeper..
Nice video, (as usual) only real detractor for me is I haven't found any clear indicator the orbital mirrors are the same as the orb's shield satellites, I mean a planet can have more than one or one kind of satellite, from what I remember of the dialog in the profit taker missions the concern isn't that destroying or making the shield satellite inoperable would make the vallis uninhabitable it's that it would be detected by Nef and they'd switch to a backup quickly and the plan would be revealed. Also if the orbital mirrors provided the shield it would seem to me you could attack the orbs during the cold period, since the orbital mirrors aren't geostationary. I imagine the shielding satellite would have to be, or there needs to be enough to hand off without a gap in coverage. I might have missed something though, if I have I'd appreciate being corrected.
that makes sense. the reflector satellite does revolve around the planet, so the shield satellite must a be a different one
Excellent content, good sir.
Here's my question though... Why would the sentients bother deploying to the Orokin's wildlife sanctuary/vacation resort? Me thinks there might be something of more strategic value buried down there.
Derek Burge Because it supposedly holds a gene forge. And what is the fatal flaw that Sentients hold? They’re sterile. A gene forge could fix that.
@@cthulhubecausewhynot1182 Plot progression. I like it.
EdoDave Daniel I just hope DE actually does something more with this and don’t treat this like they did the Unum.
@@TheKPhillip Do not worry, I reckon the Quills will be on every open world node DE will make in the future, working with them would bring us closer and closer to the entity that is the Unum
Rip all my meme days in here
Edit: back in the days where very planet was gold
wait rlly?
Yes because any thing made by the goochies of space is gold
@@somerandomdude7417 ok
Yes, Stallord with the lore. Your videos kept me in Warframe. Gave me a deep appreciation for the game and its community. You should collab with DK. Better yet, the devs were asking about a new way to explain lore in game a few streams ago. I could see this as a miniseries.
Cül Blü
I can relate
> collab with DK
No offense to you or DK but HELL NO.
With dk? HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH
DK? Uhhhhh...
No
So how old is Nef anyways? The Solaris speak as if they have been here for several generations, so if Nef was the one who jumpstarted it from the beginning he's gotta be at least 100 if not more years old.
Well, Darvo is roughly 103 years old and that’s considered young in corpus standard. Frohd Bek is apparently old enough that they had to rebuild his larynx.
first time ive seen the batacor actually fire in the game
on console when you hit the switch it just makes the gun noise but no sentient beam, no explosion- nothing ...
also in cetus we still dont have the fortuna shop keeper's textures on his items everythings untextured EVEN NOW!
yeah yeah it's not de being lazy it's just "DElays"
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Solaris the Wise? I thought not, its not a story a tenno would tell you. Its a corpus legend. Darth Solaris were workers of the Corpus so powerful and so wise they could use the Force to influence the Weeping Posts to create life…
Is it possible to learn this power?
i believe the technocyte is the answer to most of the technology left by the orokin. i think they were able to use the technocyte in an alchemical manor to grow specific compounds or atoms such as gold. blah blah large text wall of theory around existing lore that ends with the void being a non time constant

heehee zalgo text le xd
Yes
Maybe the man in the wall is an orokin creation. Maybe.
7:54 _WHAT THE HELL IS THAT_
When you make these videos can you be more specific about what you know for sure and what is just theory and show your source for the information? I've looked through some of your older videos and you state some stuff like fact when we know now it's obviously not true. I don't know what is confirmed and what is just your speculation.
Assume everything is speculation.
@@StallordD Okay. I mean I'm not hating or anything, I like the videos. I just like clarity.
not sure how this would factor in but i'm a bit inclined to believe that the orbs have warframe technology since their 'faces' are very similar to Zanuka, a proxy known for being a warframe hybrid.
privatepessleneck Apparently, they have sentient adaptive armour, hence the elemental musical chair they love to play
if the orokin were so advanced, then why did they not expand as much as they did away from the solar system? the colonizing process does not seem to be consistant with the technology of the orokin. So my question is; what prevented the orokin from expanding further then they did?
But I think you did a great job at tying details together. Even details I didn't notice.
7:46 ( flying domestick drone )
still not that bad if you look at the clan dojos the observatory is entirely made out of reused assets
Most of game is. And that's a normal thing done in games in general.
Having everything own model is just too resources intensitive
What about that 3rd orb? The one that (as far as I can tell) has no legs in a lake?
Wow. I never realized how in depth the Orb Vallis really was until now. Before it was my favorite open world, but now it's especially my favorite.
I honestly thought Venus was cold though because the Orokin had their cooling towers active, slowly cooling it down. Then once it got too cool, they would turn them off and let it get to that sweet spot (whatever that temperature was). But because the Empire was destroyed, the coolant machines were never turned off, leading to it's current frozen landscape.
Nice video! I haven't played much after that big update came out, I got tired of farming for everything, so I missed a lot of lore related things, it's good to have videos like this
Man... This paints the corpus on a more threatening light than the grineer or the infested now
Who the fuck turns the hottest planet in the solar system into a ski resort?
SOCIAL CAPITALISM! THAT'S WHO!
Ooo 33 minutes ago. Nice. Baxk to sleep...
Badass lore vid!!!
I'd assume the coolant is some sort of liquid gas, given the orokin's technological prowess at this point- possibly liquid oxygen. we currently can only create small amounts of it using the intense cold of liquid Helium and other gasses, but it is a strong candidate for the purpose of terraforming. Cooling Venus aswell as slowly generating or improving an atmosphere as it evaporates back to it's gaseous state, this process presumably slowed exponentially with orokin tech.
An aqueous chemical?
I hate the Corpus....
I hate the sentients more than the corpus
@@Monarch_Prime Why?
the corpus are an exploitative money cult, the sentients are misguided children who were abused by their parents.
The sentients didn’t just go “I AM SENTIENT! -murders- it was more like “I AM SENTIENT!” -orokin kills them because the orokin empire was an authoritarian imperial cult-
I can always count on your lore videos to be very informative.
I wonder why the Orokin would try to terraform the hottest planet of the solar system when, y'know, Mars, Europa and all of those earth-sized moons of Jupiter and Saturn exist.
Kurzgesagt has a video of terraforming Venus and there is a snow cold era
Love these lore videos please keep making them
Why does it feel like the future of the real Earth...
gg sub'd
Time to pour some Tea & listen to some excellent Warframe lore by StallordD....
While humans are carbon-based lifeforms, I think they manipulate inorganic material through simply creating silicone-based lifeforms. I've heard its possible they could exist - and a lot of Orokin stuff seems pretty plant-like.
Fuck I love your voice
I see even PlayWarframe appreciates your depthly works, sir StallordD, keep your graces in good bounds.
Paracesis Rank 40's passive that has similar property to operator's sentient adaptation nullifying effect also works to cycle profit taker's damage vulnerability
2:45 Where is that?
The lore in this game is what I keep coming back for.Sadly DE themselves don’t really wanna expand on the gorgeous environments they created.
Hell, we still need to figure out the Unum is first. Not that I'm not grateful for new lore and shit
Arent you the guy who also explained the lore of Warhammer 40k?
Does anyone ever think that Salad V is supposed to be pronounced as "salad, fifth of his name"?
I am the moon
Nora night
New video?
Warframe has really great lore and concept but it's release schedule and some of its policy's are iffy at best
remember when the giant ice rocks and huge storms were a thing? ..... yeah de doesnt seem to :D
Not the worst plan for terraforming venus that I've heard
Stallord there’s a woman named Nora talking in my scanner.
I thought u said "Weeboo posts"...
but hey, good video as usual
That was fucking awesome! We need more lore!!
What about the octopus looking thing in one of the small lakes?
How the hell did you able to link em Orokin fish Drone ?!
Also love them lore really indepth
Where do one find the underground "railways"?
reckon that the orokin where farming like we are now to build better gear
We need more lore!! Jovian Concord leaves me feeling confused
Another amazing lore video! Immediately clicked when I saw it, was not disappointed
really love this series, keep it up @StallordD
StallorD droppin the lore bomb again~
Great lore, you have done a great job on this lore
They were like this even before ':/ ;]
Phenomenal as always. Thank you for this!
These orb mothers can change the tide of the war tho. I don't think Grineer can easily deal with them...
Them niggas got like 29 forma on their guns.
This is what we know
This explains alot
LORE LORD IS BACK :D
The dig site is a Vault. DE knows Betheda has utterly failed us and is making their own Fallout homage down there. True story! xD
This is very nice
the more you know
LOOOOORE
LORE!!!!!!
I'm seriously thankful that you make these lore videos. You confirm that my guesses of what's going on with Warframe are correct or really damn wrong. You have a great way of delivering the material as well. Keep it up Stallord.
I've been in dire need of a lore fix injected into my eye holes.
When you were so early that the video had 0 views
If you want some of these translated to portuguese for captions let me know.
Are the Orokin supposed to be Dwemer of Warframe or something?
Excellent... Keep up the great work😉💯👍😊
