I always think it was a shame how the mystics don't have as much screen time as the skeksis...they seem such interesting beings
Besides being Litterally their benevolent and positive version, the deserve more attention
Colby Boucher Honestly I thought Age of Resistance was gonna end with the gelfling purge and then we’d get a scene like that. ‘Glad season 2 will elaborate more on that though
ITs because in the original film, they were deemed too boring compared to the skeksis so had less time on screen, this sadly has carried over from then on then.
@@colbyboucher6391 luckily AoR gave us UrGoh and UrVa
Agreed. I really hope if there's a Season 2 of AoR, we're able to get to know all the Mystics like we got to know all of the Skesis, even the background ones from the Dark Crystal film.
Theory: Maybe the whole ceremony of the suns thing wasn’t keeping the Skeksis alive, maybe the only thing keeping them alive was how good the mystics were taking care of themselves
Just A Random Comment Well at the very least the mystics being so healthy probably helped
@Just A Random Comment noooooooooo no no he died because the emperor's experiments with the darkening led to his death, his urRu counterpart had nothing to do with it
skekMal the hunter seemed to be the healthiest of the Skeksis, and he was far away from the Castle of The Crystal. Maybe the ceremony of the suns wasn't helping the Skeksis.
Poor uRsen, I can only imagine how frightened the other Mystics were when his bloody head exploded during the second battle of stone-in-wood.
Actually first they would be shock with the Peacemaker glitter away and then panic at whose next?
His head probably glittered away and then the rest of him, because it's not nearly as gruesome as how the Skeksis die lol
In the movie one of them died and they literally didn't say anything and kept walking. I think they're at peace with death.
@@devincrenshaw4865 "Remember me, Jen, for we may meet again in another life, but not again in this one'" -UrSu
@@devincrenshaw4865 yup. UrTih's "spontanous combustion"
I just love Chamberlain more now..Ursol sounds so cool
He literally does something in the graphic novel "Power of the Dark Crystal" which makes you wonder just how overpowered the urRu would be if they actually put their minds to it.
ikr omga
UrSol was a chanter, and while most people would think this to be not such a useful trait, just listen to what he is capable of.
@@samrizzardi2213 Are you referring to the Chamberlain's ability to animal soul speak?
@@BrianLyons315 No, something much greater. The Skeksis inherited the urSkek's know how, but the urRu inherited their power, something which they never put to use, until urSol breaks with tradition in "Power of the Dark Crystal". I won't spoil it.
My fave would have to be the Archer cause his tale ends so sadly. He wanted to be rejoined with his counterpart and to become one again. Yet in the end he bravely sacrificed himself to stop all of the evil his other self was doing. Makes you wonder why the others didn't do the same to stop theirs from wounding and further damaging Thra. Or heck! Use that as leverage! They send an envoy saying "Hey! Stop killing Gelflings and ravaging Thra are else we're gonna end your reign of terror the only way we know how...by taking you down with us, literally"
That's a very interesting consideration. However taken to further consideration, the one flaw mainly with the Uru is the fact that they are more or less full-blown pacifists. Technically remember that the skeksis and the uru are not good and evil, per se. They are kind of more like a representation of Id (Self Preserving, Short Term Pleasure, Fear, Emotion, Reptile Brained, Energy/Action) and SuperEgo (Avoidance, Restraint, Patience, Civilization/Laws, Communal Identity, Empathy, Guilt, Diplomatics, Sacrifice, Restraint/Inaction.)
With arguably the original forms of the Urskek being Ego, the objective pragmatic balance in-between the two, the one who decides when to act/take care of the Self and when to wait/take care of Others first. You need both these aspects in a harmonious healthy balance in order to be a functional person and in order to be a functional long lasting culture.
I feel really sad about the 2 in the very beginning who were burned and choked moments after creation.
voidmaster45 but why were they killed though?
@@carlopannone5281 In the confusion directly after separation, the Skeksis violently attacked their urRu counterparts like viscous animals, resulting in two dead urRu and two dead Skeksis immediately.
What I find ironic is that one skeksis, skekHak, killed his own urru counterpart, urHom, by throwing him down the crystal shaft, thus unknowingly killing himself. At least he suffered the consequences of his actions.
@@jamesrobson4894 "Unknowingly"? Sure about that?
Gabriele Solletico Well I don’t think he meant to kill himself 😂 the skeksis and mystics didn’t know they were two halves of the same being until they started dropping like flies each time their counterpart was killed
I hope we see more of the Mystics in season 2. They need more screen time so that they can develop their identities and characters more than we've seen thus far. I love the lore behind them. Meditating so intensely that you form patterns of wrinkles? Awesome.
Matthew Dorough and maybe a flashback of the mystics witnessing urma and ursens deaths
Probably in the next season the Gelflings will have the dilemma that they can't kill the Skeksis without killing the Mystics...
I wonder if you can hurt one without hurting the other as long as wound something non-equivalent. Their anatomy is different enough for that to be possible.
Probably the only way to hurt one without hurting the other was using the Dual Glaive.
@@eldermillennial8330 Not entirely. I thought that Skeksis had only two arms and no tails, unlike the Mystics, but the Hunter is much more physically active than the other Skeksis, so his extra arms and tail haven't withered away to almost nothing. You can even see the Emperor holding his scepter with a scrawny, minuscule arm, handing it to his dominant arm before unleashing the Darkening upon the Gelfling. The Mystics hunch over while the Skeksis stand tall, but biologically speaking, any anatomy that doesn't match between the two is so small, it really wouldn't be worth it to attack. That would be like saying that the barber attacked you by cutting off the body parts attached to the top of your head.
Sadly there wont be a 2nd season
Damn, there was a time when people thought a second season was possible
Thank you so much to the handful of new subscribers! I'm really excited to start this community with you! Also, i will be doing a video for every Skeksis as soon as i hit 25 subscribers, so remember to keep spreading the word!
Thank you for doing these! I've watched skeksis video and uru video. Very well done!
Wonderfull video's man, really enjoy the lore etc, thnx.
Who is urLi’s counterpart? You didn’t mention it in the video
Squirtle225 Gaming skekli is urliis counterpart
What song did you use for the background? There have been quite a few of us looking for it for the past three years.
I hate to be a nag but there have been no replies to anyone’s questions of it and not even a reference in your description.
Even if it is royalty free, please include it.

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.....
OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
UUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHH
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH.....
AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I love how the first mystic created food that made the mystics strong and healed then while the gourmand food made the skeksis fat and unhealthy
A perfect balance of light and dark.
The mystics are so much more interesting than the Skeksis. I want to know much more about them. Peaceful ways are deeper and yet less emphasized and honored. The teller of our modern tales need to make the peaceful as sexy as the chaotic and stupidly warlike.
Amen brother.
Really well researched, man! Do you think you could cover the Gruenak at some point? The line skekTek says about saying "I thought we had wiped them out!" intrigued me, makes me wonder what they did to get the skekSis bent on destroying them.
This would be awesome!
Mr_Earwig Bump’
I don’t think we actually see anything of the Gruenaks out of AoR
urVa definitively best UrRu, because he went like a true mad lad.
A bit of a correction on urSan, as far as I been told, by those that read the book (Tides of the Dark Crystal) there is no indication the Swimmer was female. Many (Included myself) implied urSan to be female because skekSa the Mariner identified as such, although it is important to note, the UrSkeks were neither male nor female. Jim Henson wanted to keep it like that as during the production of the film he realized there were many male characters but only two females (Kira and Aughra), so when designing the Ornamentalist, he decided to make skekEkt effeminate, without implying specific gender, keeping the creatures mysterious, specially when it came to their true identity, as the UrSkeks were alien to Thra. Although, I would not oppose urSan been one, it would make it interesting if we get Season 2 of TDC AoR.
A personal belief of mine is since the UrSkeks species evolve into a higher level of existence by studying the Crystal of their home world, overtime, they lost these mortal mundane traits, since they all became immortal and therefor had no reason to reproduce, in the process losing their Genders. Since the Skeksis and Mystics are crude split Physical Manifestations of the UrSkeks selves, what ever left of that biology, may had been re-instated (for the lack of a better word) into the crude forms.
Also: the UrSkeks split was BEFORE the Crystal was cracked. Both the film and Dark Crystal Creation Myths volume 2 show this.
The puppet play in age of resistance also shows this happening.
Wouldn't that also imply that skekSa is dead as well, because her counterpart is no longer alive? That's what happened with urVa in Age of Resistance, although I can imagine that the connection is a bit different there because, well, reasons that would be a major spoiler here.
@@Stoney3K well, as of now they are both alive. We still need to see Ung, Na, Shod, Li and Sa. And by what I read on the Dark Crystal wiki on the info from the novels Sa & San are another pair that seem to be living together (though theirs is not for reunification like Grah & Goh). Both act as leader to the Sifa (someone correct me if I misunderstood this) but if we get S2 it will be with parts of Tides of the Dark Crystal as part of the seasons plot as they will be a 3rd pair of importance to the plot after Mal/Va & Grah/Goh.
Yes. I’ve never understood why they say at the beginning of the film that the Crystal cracked, and THEN the UrRu and Skeksis appeared. This doesn’t make any sense.
The archer is my favorite. A mystic strongly connected to Thra but also an amazing fighter. I love it.
You know, I feel so sorry for the Alchemist, in the movie I know it served a plot point of helping us realize that Ursu and Skeksis were two halves of the same being, but now I feel so sorry for the way he died and never made it...sad.
So do I. Especially since his Skeksis counterpart, SkekTek the Scientist always regretted ending his relationship with Aughra. Because SkekTek and UrTih died, that meaningful relationship was unfortunately truly no more, along with returning to their true form as an UrSkeks.
One of the big 3 things I wanted to see in Dark Crystal: AoR was Mystic culture in all its glory. So far, we only got a tease... but I'm hoping we get them in all their glory in S2! /fingers crossed there will be an S2!!!
I think it's a given based on how successful season 1 has been. It's not been confirmed yet but it's already been talked about.
@@nachogroucho There's already a teaser video with material that is not in season 1, so I expect season 2 to be released somewhere next year.
People are saying there will be a season 2. Does that mean the movie doesn't pick up right after season 1? Is the movie that far into the future that we can have a season 2 before the events of the movie?
@@Infrared-nyne the age of resistance events take place longer before the movie
No season two, because it was quality and people can’t handle that
5:24
The moment you realise skekEkt is a dude xD
everyone still identifies them as she in universe, and the collector
Strictly speaking, they are all hermaphroditic, like a slug, but only their original complete forms were capable of breeding.
Some were so evenly both across their good and bad elements that both counterparts after the division remained sexually ambiguous, but in SOME, one became distinctly more female and the other male. The General, without a doubt, has always been the most masculine of the Skeksis, and his Uru the most Feminine of her kind. Of course the reverse is true in at least one other pair. For one, their masculine side was more toxic, the other, their feminine side was worse.
Of all the races of the Dark Crystal, none have stuck with me more than the urRu. There's just something so creepy and yet very calming about them. :)
I think you hit the nail on the head. They scared me when I was young but now I love them.
Fun fact about the urRu, they were originally based off of trolls that were designed by the Frouds. Jim Henson wanted a race that resembled Froud’s trolls, so they just gave them 4 arms and they now are the mystics we see them today.
Everyone seems so obsessed with SkekSil, but I am obsessed with his counterpart urSol, the chanter is my favorite character in the entire universe. I just want to hear him sing without the rest of the mystics. Fingers crossed for season 2 to show a younger urSol with a great voice actor!
He also most rebellious of the Mystics.
UrSol never left the valley possible during the death of UrMa and guilted with the Chamberlain's actions. He only stay in the valley to respect UrSu wishes during the movie version.
I won't spoil what happened in the book sequels. Know this, Chamberlain is terrified upon seeing Chanter standing against him.
I really enjoy your Dark Crystal vids! This video helped me decide on names for my four pet garden snails: urGoh, urAmaj, urNol and urVa. 🐌
Congratulations, also do you know the music
such an incredibly fascinating and thought-provoking mythos.. thank you for this video as well as the other one
I love all the urRu - but since AoR, urGoh has definitely become a favorite.
urGoh abides... (But urUtt's blankets & coats really tied the room together...) >; )
Another informative fascinating video, and liking the relaxing music.
urGoh and urVa are without a doubt my favourites, the Wanderer in particular. The reason why is probably the way they differed from the other Mystics, along with just how they actively tried to save Thra and chose to walk their own paths (urGoh deciding to risk it all by telling the Skeksis and Urru about the prophecy and his close bond with skekGra; urVa deciding to not live alongside the other Mystics and making a great sacrifice to save his friend Aughra).
I wonder if urSol made a sound like his Skeksis counterpart, the Chamberlin. If he did, it might of been pleasent to hear as opposed to the Chamberlin's "whimper."
It was likely a low gutteral grandfatherly grumble that would sooth the soul.
@@the1tigglet I like that idea. I hope that will be fitted into the series.
I imagine a sound like the villagers from Minecraft
I imagine it as soul-soothing grandpa-"hmmmm"
Aw, I really like that idea!
Informative, clear and well-paced video, I hope you get more subs and views. Subscribed 👏
I’m so thrilled with all this information. Thank you.🙏
5:15 “Blanket-Coats” The tale of the Skeksis and urRu is obviously about growing old, the mystics who embrace it and the Skeksis who fear it, I say this because blanket coats sounds like exactly like what an old person would wear
New to the channel but loving it so far, can't wait to watch you grow!
a suggestion, as you mention the skeksis counterpart please show a picture or drawing.
I wish I had a UrRu-friend.
We all want (and need) and UrRu friend. ;-;
THIS VIDEO MAKES ME SO HAPPY😩❤️
Thra is one of my favorite fantasy worlds ever
Mine too. I want to see more Dark Crystal. I want to know more about all the UrRu and Skeksis. I want them to show the Great Division of the UrSkeks onscreen.
0:29 to 0:46 It’s interesting that SkekOk was the smallest Skeksis, but UrAc was just as big as the other UrRu, if not larger. It makes me wonder if he was more good than evil in his UrSkeks form.
0:51 to 1:09 Other than the Gourmand, all the other Skeksis are very skinny and withering, while all the UrRu appear well fed and look taller than the Skeksis when they stand up right.
1:14 to 1:33 It’s interesting and a little ironic the UrAmaj and UrNol worked together, given that UrAmaj was one of two in arguably the most similar pair, while UrNol is one of two in the most opposite pair. As mentioned in other videos, UrAmaj and SkekAyuk are very similar since they are both cooks, while UrNol and SkekNa could not be more opposite, since “an herb tender and a Slave master have absolutely nothing to do with each other.” I cannot be the only one to see a little irony in that.
I love all of the UrRu, whether they’re well known or not. It’s too bad they don’t get as much screen time as the Skeksis, especially on the show. But regardless, I want to see more Dark Crystal on screen.
I love the music. I want to listen to it more. What music is this? Thanks for this channel it’s wonderful. 💜💎🖤🐸💞✨🎈🎂 happy birthday Jim Henson!! 🎂🐸💞🎈
I absolutely LOVE the mystics and wish NECA had made an action figure for one of the urRu, as lovingly crafted and accurately detailed as the skekSil one they made a few years back. Maybe there's hope for one yet, now that we have the Age of Resistance series.
Great video, so informative and well put together, one note coz I’m such a nitpick: UrLii did not die at the great conjunction and hew was the counter part of the satirist Skeksis
Jack Winkworth But he didn’t say he died at the Great Conjunction. He said that he died sometime before.
S.P.E.W good point (i rewatched it and yes that is what he said) thanks for pointing it out
Lovely video. I do enjoy the mystics. Some of the art here I've never seen before. Where did you find it? Specifically the weaver.
I think UrUtt is in the The World of The Dark Crystal art book.
A fun fact about the mystics when they were being designed, Jim Henson came up with their appearance by the inspiration of Froud’s trolls. Jim Henson wanted to include the troll design and then Froud decided to change them to avoid copyright claim. The only change they made is giving them four arms. I thought this was interesting because most people see trolls as either massive, ugly hulks with tusks, but Froud included their design as something peaceful and gentle.
I think this is how trolls are meant to be as big gentle reptilian creatures with wisdom and with spirit in it
I really love the Mystics in the Dark Crystal world, they are a lot more interesting than the Skeksis, we saw a few in AOR but not the whole clan. My favorite urRu is now urVa the Archer even though he sacrificed himself to kill the hunter and bring back Aughra He replaced urZah The Ritual Guardian, can’t wait for season 2.
4:08 ...well, I mean the Chamberlain sings too...
*"mmmMmMMMmM"*
You did a segment on Skesis of what they looked like a long time ago, it make me wonder if same holds true for the urRu? Did they seem so heavily hunched and the swirls on faces as deep? or did they stand up more, maybe more Regal?
You should be able to find images of them from the Creation Myths graphic novel. They stood tall and were able to run fast
My Favourite urRu is by far the archer. He was the most knowbal by sacrificing himself to get rid of the hunter!
I agree. Because by sacrificing himself, UrVa the Archer not only made SkekMal perish along with him, but he simultaneously saved the Gelfling resistance and brought Aughra back through SkekMal’s energy.
By the way can you explain me what happen with urGoh and the heretic at the end of the season? I mean the last time we saw them is them witnessing the archers sacrifice, but then when he cut back to their home we just saw Hup alone and sad, while he is taking Lores talisman as if they disappear or something
You have the best fans, I can tell because I do not see a single urMum joke in the comment section.
When The Collector's head exploded, so did the urRu counterpart's!
I honestly feel bad for urSen. Throughout his life, the Monk had to deal with the same pustules the Collector had. I'm also quite surprised that he managed to hold to his peaceful ways despite the disease.
Either way, rest in peace, urSen.
no mention of the collector and his mystic counterpart dying
Ursu is our family favorite since we share Ursu as our last name. So cool!!
More like UwU
And of course, the keks
I really hope we see more of them in season 2
Ok so here is my question. In the original dark crystal movie the skeksis and mystics are so connected that if one of them dies their other half dies as well, but if the chamberlain is still alive despite his mystic half dying what does thay mean? Does it mean that if they arent close to the planet alignment than they arent as connected?
I've combed over the movie a hundred times over the years trying to spot an eyepatch on urNol ever since reading about it in the novelization; which would make sense since his counterpart had one, but I never could see it. Speaking of SkekNa, I wonder what his position was before the advent of slaves. What would the the Skeksis equivalent of an herbalist? (The Skeksis drug dealer? lol)
Potions master or alchemist or something
@@FieryFlamingFajitas theres already an urRu alchemist, the counterpart to the Scientist
@@mythme01 well you figure it out then, you seem like you already know everything else 🙄
@@FieryFlamingFajitas I'd bet he would have been the Skeksis doctor.
I love your voice.
Did Darkheart perish during the conjunction? If not, which one of the Mystics/Skeksis was he? I'm guessing UrSol and the Chamberlain, given UrSol's singing. Would also be kind of fitting that the wretched Chamberlain might be connected to the cause of the split.
How do you get the info and the names of those uru
Mystic deserve mor screen time season two should be about them more and the dynamic behind all of them like we should see them when they were young and new to the planet
Honestly the alchemist and cook...I dont dislike any uru but based on the ones that we see in the films and such. I love the archer
Loved the archer
In DC: Creation Myths volume 3, there are two urRu, urGoh and another unnamed one. I think it's implied that the latter is urMa, as he moderates the peace treaty between the Gelflings and the Makraks.
Supposedly that is urMa the Peacemaker, since he was mediating on behalf of the Mystics and Makraks.
Spectacular entertainment!
Music please.
Am I the only one humbly prefering the Mystics from the movie ?
Because of their deep veiled eyes, sorrow expressions and solemnity.
The Mystics from the recent serie just look whimsical and "high" (like a mix of Falkor and Peter Jackson's Radagast), just too light, slow and goofy, more than deep, wise and patient.
The enchantment broke on me.
(fortunately, everything else in the serie was absolutely marvelous and bewitching!)
Y'know in season 2 I really hope we get a flashback to the division of the skesis and mystics. I think that would be fricken cool. I dunno why but I wanna see a mystic/skesis being strangled
There’s a scene where it looks like one of the mystics flash away or disappear as they journey to the castle. It happens after the skeksis is pushed into the pit where the dark crystal is at. There didn’t seem to be any explanation.
What song are you using in the background? It complements the video extremely well.
That's what I want to know
@@rickshabusky4553 Oh hey! Just noticed this. Yeah, unfortunately I have some bad news as I have been trying to find this through his other pages and through rips and song lookups with Shazam and other softwares - still unable to find it. Dreamfastwithme has used this track multiple times and still refuses to acknowledge anyone's comments or questions on the tracks.
I've honestly given up at this point. Damn shame too...this one really was helping me write up some concepts for stories.
If you have any better luck along the way, tag me in will ya?
Love them all but the archer and the scientist is my main two favorite besides Chamberlain
My favorite Mystics is UrVa because of his wisdom. 2nd would be UrGoh followed by UrZah because he has the coolest staff.
So are the UrRu the more powerful side of the split? they seem to have immense abilities compared to the skeksis.
The Archer is my favorite urRu.
The chamnerlain's counterpart is my fav because hes connected to the chamberlaine
urseu is my most favorite mystic Jen's master.
My favorite is ur-goh the wanderer, only because his skeksis counterpart is hillarious.
I do all live them dearly
Love how the Scientist is the bad counterpart because with science u can wield some truly dark stuff
@@marcelszpak1460 I wouldn't say afraid more excited for the fantasy potential
@@marcelszpak1460 Well, considering how many many horrible things can come about for the sake of scientific pursuit, example being Nazi Germany.
Science is something you should definitely be careful with, and it has to be tempered with a good moral compass or else you might end up doing some "truly dark stuff."
@@JMObyx Sure, but this isn't real so....
@@nzrockboi Are you kidding? With how critical audiences are nowadays, people can't exactly have narratives as flawed as a lot of them used to be without compensating in other areas colossally! 300, Michael Bay's Transformers, etc.
And as a writer, I can't exactly afford to write a story with a haphazard story.
@@JMObyx can you please be quiet? Talk about taking comments way out of context. Go and hassle someone else
urSol is my favorite, followed by urVa, urGoh, and urLii
Does someone link me the music in the background?
The music is mine actually:) You can find all my game/movie music here: @curatunes
I always that UrYa would have something to do with animals. Like a Shepherd. Never controlling animals, but helping, healing and tending to their needs.
So skekYi what would have been a vet to take care SkekTek's animals?
Well, that’s one idea.
I think I got the perfect role for skekyi and urya so listen to this!:
Skekyi the astronomer: a female skeksis with a similar beak like skeksil and skekna, a skeksis that studies the planets and the stars and really enjoyed seeing when skeksis fight, she is a close friend to skeksil because she admire his voice a listen his advice and a close friend to skektek to help him with his experiment, she holds a rival grudge against skekzok: astronomy vs astrology
Urya the star cartographer: a female urru with a similar snout like ursol who studies the stars and make her owns rituals, she is known to be the most gentle of the urru as she helps other races such as poddlings and grunaks ( before the skeksis wipe them out ) she is also a close friend to urgoh to which she understands the unity of skeksis and urru but after when urgoh was banished she felt bad for him.
So what you think?, to which I think it's the perfect role for these two.
Music please
I have a question;
If the urskeks were split into two, does that mean their name is also split into two? Like urgoh and skekskra's real name would be gohskra (if I got the names right)?
I think the Skek name comes first and then the urRu name, so ot would be Skragoh
@@droopsmoop
Their urskek name is GraGoh
Ur is in front of every urru name because they are urrus, same with skek for the skeksis, the unique parts of their names are about half of what the urskeks name was
SkekSo and UrSu= SoSu
SkekOk and UrAc= OkAc
Etc, etc
Skeksa is Probably dead since Ursan died right?
I was just watching the original Dark Crystal and in the credits, one of the Mystics is called The Hunter. Who did they accidently switch!? 😅
Can anyone tell me the background music to this video? It's beautiful and so peaceful. :)
I love the Mystics. I think the urSkeks splitting into the Mystics and Skeksis is one of the most interesting things about The Dark Crystal. I also love how Age of Resistance fleshed out the Gelfling race, something the Gelflings really needed. LOL
But back to the Mystics, I know the Skeksis tend to be more popular among fans, but as fun as the Skeksis are, it's always refreshing to see the Mystics. Not only would I feel safe with them, I love how gentle, kind, and peaceful they are. I could spend a whole day with them and listen to their wisdom. :) The only thing that might bug me about them is their, um...lack of speed. XD
also want to know
I have been waiting as well...noone seems to know and the creator apparently cares little to share it or link any of the music in the description...-.-
UrSol by far is my favorite
urTif just disappeared and the mystics just looked at where he was. I felt like I was one of them
Please, create more videos...ty
The hunt must end now we shall what lise at the dreams end
We should all try to be more like the urRu.
My favorite urru is urva and favourite skeksis is skekmal
urGoh owns my heart
I always thought it was weird they all look so similar but all the skeksis have such unique faces
Actually, when you get a good look at them you can tell that some of there snouts are either smooth shape or beaked shape and have different spiral markings on their snouts too.
I’m curious as to why urGoh would be cast away/shunned by other mystics? (If I am hearing that correctly) they seem as though they would be all for his ideals
Same. They all re unite in the movie and they do it willingly and I'm pretty sure he mentioned another who wanted them to rejoin as well.
Because the mystics could not at the time bare that they had counterparts who were that shameful. They left the castle and began their journey far away for a reason, it would take them a very long time to accept they were two halves of the same whole again. Its the part of the urSkek that was ashamed of their dark hearts of which the Skeksis represent.
Its something they had to come terms with, that they despite how noble and wise they were were part of a creature or being once that was capable of which things hen they themsleves were so pure and wise.
The wondered and his counterpart were both unique in that they knew thats something they had to face, with the Wanderer being the first to finally accept what they were.
I think they didn't understand (except for maybe one)
What, I don't see the connection between what UrSol can do and what SkekSil can do? I'm confused...
Both mystics and chamberlains provide advice and insight to their charges
UrSol and SkekSil use their voice as their main talents. SkekSil is basically a politician (using words), where UrSol is a songmaster (using song).
Archer is the best of them. He is the only urRu willing to protect Thra from the ravages of the Skeksis. When all the others allowed the Skeksis' many genocides, Archer sacrificed himself to save Augra. The urRu could have saved the Gelfling, the Gruenak and all the others killed off by Skeksis, but chose instead to value themselves and their reunification over Thra itself
I always called them Mystics. Whats with the name Urru? And I want to meet Ursol in the next season.
That's what they're referred to in a lot of books (like the novelization). Basically, it's where the "ur" in "urSkek" comes from.
@@TylerCharlesFisher then why do the gelflings at least Jen calls them Mystics?
Derek Roberts Our species is called Human, but we call each other People.
@@HistoryUnwound Nope. Our species is called Sapiens ( Homo sapiens). Human (Homo) is the name of genus, of which our species is part of. Same as Cats. Cat is not a species. There is many different species of cats.
if you watch/listen to the movie carefully, at the end when the Mystics enter the crystal chamber you can hear the Scroll Keeper cry "urRu!" This is what they were always supposed to be called before the studio forced Hensen's hand and made him overdub the language into English. (The movie was originally wasn't supposed to be in English but rather in the languages of Thra. That's why the mouths of the characters don't always match the words being said. For example - "Trial by Stone!" was originally "Haskeeka!" You'll see that the Chamberlain's and the General's mouths match this better than "Trial by Stone!"
The last one you talked about
How long is a trine years in earth years
Probably the same
Death of urMa:
urMa have been wondering in the woods then suddenly he felt his chest being stabbed and then died.
Death of urSen
urSen was in a middle of a conversation with urIm but then she felt something weird with her head until it stops then her head disappeared along with her body leaving the the healer shock.
I don't get why they would kicked UrGoh out?
I assuming it's cos they are simply waiting for destiny/ timing to take action like they did in the original film while UrGoh wanted to become one NOW?
Wait so do you put the names the of the Mystic first since they were called UrSkeks or the Skeksis name first because if the Mystic name is first then Archer and Hunter’s full name is VaMal reversed it’s MalVa take your pick honestly
