My cat, Penelope, passed away recently after about 10 years together. Every night she'd sleep by my side, but now she's gone alone to her final resting place.
First Lacrima and then Leonard...he loves his animal pals. He also learned gravity magic so he could presumably get Lacrima down from the tallest towers in the academy when she got stuck...
I suddenly have the hilarious mental image of this gigantic, building sized demigod armed to the teeth huddled over a practically microscopic domestic cat and giving the scritches it demands with a gigantic finger.
@@jamesnorman9160 So some gravity magic to help his horse carry him, and the others to actually jump high enough to get his cat. So much of his fight tracks with that to be honest
That you made this touching little video for Penelope is proof of the overwhelming amount of love she received during your 10 years together. It’s beautiful anyone could care so much. Very sorry for your loss. 😢
@Chwiztid I'm with you. Mine is only 11 but she has a tumor. We tried having it removed, but all they could do was slow the growth. It's sadly only a matter if time now.
It's also kind of interesting how it indicates that he's sort of a reverse Godfrey, in spite of how he presents himself. Godfrey is a bloodthirsty barbarian pretending to be a noble king, and Radahn was a gentle and thoughtful man pretending to be a brutal warlord.
@@BHRA78while I do feel the same, I think that, through Jerren, we get enough of a look at the old Radahn. They were incredibly close (arguably beyond "friendship" if yk what I mean 😉😉) and even promised to avenge the other if one fell in battle.
I had a little tortie for about 18 years. She was my best friend and I'll never forget her. I'm sure Penelope had a great life with you. Thank you for sharing this tribute to her with us.
Thank you for the video and RIP Penelope. My cat Peppers passed away as well about 2 months ago. She was 19 years old. Had Her since i was 7. Been playing through Dark Souls 2 & 3 since then to remember life is always in death and death is always in life. Don't you dare go hollow.
4:42 Lacrima being Radahn's cat is absolutely something that makes sense lmao Think about it. Radahn is the madman who decided to learn Gravity sorcery for the sole purpose of being able to ride his beloved horse as he himself grew to a giant's size. With that in mind is there anyone who doesn't believe that, Radahn, the absolute chad animal lover, upon getting a kitten wouldn't think: "Mmmm... The biggest danger to cats is their own folly, often climbing to heights they cannot safely descend. I have decided Lacrima. I shall cast a spell on thee, little kitten, such that you may climb whatever you like without any fall causing you harm."
There's also a tall cliff-face as a part of Radahn's arena, I suppose it would have been possible that Lacrima could have jumped down from the cliffs to fight you at some point somehow Although I doubt this got very far in development if at all considering there's no uncovered assets for Lacrima or anything to this extent I assume
Rest in peace, Penelope. You witnessed in person some of the greatest things the souls community has ever seen, and I'm sure you were also one of the greatest yourself. I'm sorry for your loss Zulie, I hope you're doing ok.
4:48 Radahn showing off his pet kitty to the rest of the class. "And this is Lacrima, and I love her so much!" "....." P.S. R.I.P. to Penelope, she looked like a sweet girl.
Radahn excitedly showing off his trained battle-lion to his troops. "This is Daxtus, and he's a very good kitty! He likes skritches behind the ear, or under the chin if you can't reach his ears. If he sharpens his claws on the ramparts, throw a bucket of water at him, yell 'No!' gently but firmly, and then run. He likes to sleep with his favorite ballista, so make sure..." "...I would follow this man barefoot into hell."
I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. Mine is a tiny member of my family and even if she loves to run past my face at full speed while I'm sleeping, she loves to cuddle with me and my kids and has cemented herself in my memories as such a wonderful positive energy. I feel for you bro, RIP Penelope.
My condolonces for your cat Zullie, but great video as always! Also, i love than the most thing we seem to discover about Radahn, the more he seems like a great, softy guy. Best demi-god.
I'm so sorry for your loss Zullie. I recently found your videos, and once I heard the Twilight Princess music I knew this was a channel I should subscribe to. I used to play TP on the GameCube back in my teenage years, and my cat Ringo would crawl up and just lay on my back or next to me while I did. Miss him like a little brother every day, and know it's like losing a family member. My heart goes out to you and hope you know they are in a better place, or their next life! ❤
R.I.P Penelope, i am so sorry for ur loss Zullie, ur videos got me into soulsborne games after one of ur videos randomly appeared on my feed a year or so ago. Thanks for everything u hav done for the soulsborne community, take care n know that well all love n appreciate u
Im so sorry for your loss, what a beautiful way to honor the memory of someone who's been with you from the time you became Zullie the Witch that we all love. Rest in peace Penelope ❤
Im sorry about your cat. I lost a cat back in november and i know how it feels. Theyre more than just things to pet and take care of. Theyre individuals. Im sorry for your loss and hope that your next one (if you get another one) is unique and wonderful in its own way.
They should totally bring back the goofy cat ring/equivalent icons from Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 2, that kind of scuffed charm that displayed heart and the personality of the devs showing in minor easter-egg like details is what made the Soulsborne franchise one of my favorites.
Someone may have already mentioned this, but what's more interesting to me than the fact that they chose to have Alvina speak in an antiquated dialect is the fact that they chose to do it wrong. As an example from the snippet provided, she says "the legend of Artorias art", but "art" as a state of being verb is second person singular (thou art). For the third person singular, even in the archaic style, "is" is still the most correct, but if you want to keep that "feel", you could say "the legend of Artorias be" so you can still sound old and outlandish. Unless they made it wrong on purpose as a design choice to make it seem like Alvina was trying to speak in an older way but didn't actually know how.
Sweet Shalquor is my favourite Souls NPC. Such a spicy cat, fluffy, helpful but a bit of a troll. I also love how the Silvercat ring in Elden Ring is found on a corpse at the bottom of a ravine. Evidently he didn't read the 'reduces falling damage but not death' part clearly enough.
Rest in peace, Penelope. I never met her, but the image at the end makes it clear she was the best cat you could ask for. I'm sure she'd thank you a thousand times for making this video.
I read the tweet when it was sent out, and this video did not ring any bells. Now the ending came up and I'm in tears. Totally unprepared. May you find a comfy spot to curl up on in the great beyond, Penelope.
Radahn in the thumbnail look like he just came back from the wilds with a stray cat and he's about to ask his troops if he can keep it. Also, RIP to Penelope.😢
Rest in peace, Penelope. :( I'm sorry Zulie. I lost a cat somewhat recently as well - he lived to be 21 years old (and was pretty healthy right up until the end). Thank you for making this video.
A beautiful way to memorialize your loved one, Zullie. I know how much it can hurt, but knowing you had ten beautiful years together is always going to be worth the pain in the end.
Was about to riot with the lack of Cat Ring mention, but you saved it for the end. The loss of a pet is hard, but I'm sure she had a great, blessed life of comfort and love.
OOOOOOHHH THAT ENDING HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK I can not imagine the pain you must've felt, I can't even bear imagining my cat ever passing away, so idk what I'd do when that event unfortunately comes I'm truly sorry for your loss
RiP Penelope. Cats are some of the finest companions you can ever have, or the fiercest enemies if you miss meal time. Thanks for the video Zullie, your companion will be remembered at least by this fellow DS nerd.
My cat, Penelope, passed away recently after about 10 years together. Every night she'd sleep by my side, but now she's gone alone to her final resting place.

May she rest in peace 😢
Rip Penelope. Nap well, little one
that's such a sweet thing to say in memory of a cat
this made me cry
😢😢
the cato has reached her final nap. this is sad day...
Radahn liking cats is the least surprising obscure lore.
First Lacrima and then Leonard...he loves his animal pals. He also learned gravity magic so he could presumably get Lacrima down from the tallest towers in the academy when she got stuck...
I suddenly have the hilarious mental image of this gigantic, building sized demigod armed to the teeth huddled over a practically microscopic domestic cat and giving the scritches it demands with a gigantic finger.
@@jamesnorman9160 So some gravity magic to help his horse carry him, and the others to actually jump high enough to get his cat. So much of his fight tracks with that to be honest
Makes me hate malenia even more tbh.
Right? He still rides Leonard
The difference between Alvina being a creepy-ass Cheshire Cat type and Shalquoir being just, like, a regular, really cuddly-looking cat is so wild
Flirting vs harassment
Which would you prefer, a huge, kinda scary cat who coyly flirts with you, or a regular sized cat that is straight up telling you she's down to fuck
Then there is the fact that Alvina is really just a smart cat... But Shalquoir is some eldritch horror sealed in cat form.
@@Bokto1 Where is Shalquoir being a horror mentioned? I can't seem to find it anywhere...
@@miccaleon not really mentioned, but she knows things before Age of Fire, immortal, smells soul memory and deals with sins. So headcanon, at least
That you made this touching little video for Penelope is proof of the overwhelming amount of love she received during your 10 years together. It’s beautiful anyone could care so much. Very sorry for your loss. 😢
Ending killed me emotionally.
Didn’t realize I was watching Prepare to Cry
do you know how many cats pass away every single day?
@@swarthygiant1463 Vatti, where's that Prepare To Cry for Penelope! Get on it
"Huh, this is an odd choice of video to make. Maybe there's some potential for major thematic significance in the DLC which I missed?"

This is the most important info in the Souls series yet.
Yes indeed, I hope we have more lore behind Every cat :3

what a lovely tribute, zullie. i'm sure penelope knew how much she was loved
Penelope looks absolutely adorable, this video is a suitable way to honor their legacy o7
The picture of Zullie's old pet makes me think of my little old dog that's pushing 15 yrs. It's just a matter of time...
@@Chwiztid Do me a favor, please. Be gentle and kind to him, every day. Even more than you have so far. Thanks.
@Chwiztid I'm with you. Mine is only 11 but she has a tumor. We tried having it removed, but all they could do was slow the growth. It's sadly only a matter if time now.
To me it's somewhat poetic how Radahn, a boss with the mental state of a beast by the time we play the game, was so fond of animals.
It's also kind of interesting how it indicates that he's sort of a reverse Godfrey, in spite of how he presents himself. Godfrey is a bloodthirsty barbarian pretending to be a noble king, and Radahn was a gentle and thoughtful man pretending to be a brutal warlord.
@@CPU9incarnateI really want to see Radahn stuff so badly. I feel like dude would joke with his soldiers and bounce back at there comments
@@CPU9incarnate that really hits when you remember that radahn looked up to godfrey.

@@Blu3-Fir3 Same it just fits so well

Makes sense, learning gravity magic can negate fall damage.
Maybe the talisman contains a fraction of radahn's gravity manipulation?
radahn will always be the lands between's greatest gigachad.
