    The fact that those golems look like Sin Eaters makes me endlessly intrigued about just what was going on there.

    Holy crap. That's tragic. I knew the void ark was itself a tomb...but finally getting all of the lore behind it is haunting. Was one of my favorite raids too.

    Hearing more about the War of the Magi really makes me marvel at the abilities of White Mages and Scholars from the previous era. Being able to contend with the destructive power of Mhach's Black Mages must have been no meager task. However, it also make me wish WHM and SCH had just a few more offensive abilities to make their gameplay more engaging. I'd like to feel as powerful as our forebears sound like they were.

    As a Red Mage, it's amazing how this war led to the creation of this class

    You know it never occurred to me that Mhach's behavior was so...similar. If it really did have the same dark founders as Allag and Garlemald then that would make a lot of sense. It would also explain why all of these imperial nations were prone to such militant and reckless expansion. No nation that expanded slowly and responsibly could ever sow half as much chaos.

    I just did the void ark line after a year of playing and I can’t believe how awesome it was. I did find it a little tough to follow from a lore perspective, so this cleared it right up. The history of Hydaelyn is so fascinating and nuanced. It really breathes life into the world.

    Wow ... these lore videos are really making me appreciate lower level dungeons in a new light. I don't remember anything from ARR story so this is really great

    Imagine if White Mages in the game were given an ability to summon their own Golem. That would be awesome!!!

    One thing seems to be missing, the final instigators of the flood

    You missed out on Ozma and the destruction of nym which I’m sure it played a part in. You can even see bits of the city when it sucks you in

    That was satisfying end to this subject. I loved your research into it. It's given me more of an appreciation for the world and the story it has.

    Now that I think about it, from a lore point of few, the Scholars using poison type magick makes sense if were replicating the power of the "Green Death" through their magicks.

    Heyo! Just a minor correction in the future. Scathach is a Gaelic name from Celtic myth. Her name is pronounced (Skah-hah) with a back of the throat sound in the middle. But just saying Skah-hah is fine too.

    Great video as always!!

    I can’t believe the back mages of Mach were so evil and devious about what they did to the nym. I can’t believe it. Gonna make me give every black mage I see ingame the side eye.

    I hope Golemancy returns as a job class someday. :D
