[Arknights] The Ancient Age

Music:
大谷幸 - 鳴
甲田雅人 - 祖なる龍
Inspired by the record of Ptilopsis about the memory of originium.
This work doesn't include any official information, just an imagination of gods and mythological creatures mentioned in the game.
I would be glad to take any useful feedback and put in the next work, which will focus more on a certain force in Arknights
Thank you!!

You know, considering how terrifying Patriot is, that there are a whole bunch of people like him in the past fighting the terrors makes things even more terrifying.

[@gabrielaarons6102]

And the Patriot we fought was sick, weakened, out of his prime, old and dying. Imagine if he was healthy and in his prime

It makes me wonder on how the Ancient Wendigo's survived generation's against Terra and its Horrors, The fight between one of the Nian's Sisters against the Seaborne was beautiful. And Amiya & Theresa's Predecessor of the First King of the Sarkaz & Lord of Fiends.

[@fin-as-drago9479]

This is an very interesting question, if only we had more characters that could open up on the ancient history of what terra was like, the only characters that know are possibly kal’tsit, the nian siblings. The games world building is very intriguing and phenomenal my friend.

[@zchen27]

The Wendigos were always known for their strength and fortitude in the face of superhuman threats. I would imagine they probably faced gods the same way they faced the demons of the North: by sheer will and conviction.

[@cefrinaldi8060]

[@haezer7171]

This makes me wanna meet you in person and shake your hands. Absolute incredible. So much stories in a single storyboard. Now I'm thinking that maybe Surtr made a contract/pact with the giant holding Surtr's sword in game. Maybe the giant got weakened after the war and so it made a contract with Surtr? Cuz you can see that the only difference is the giant size and the collar that the giant has in the game right now. On my way reading all the stories and ops file and voice record now.

[@cefrinaldi8060]

That is absolutely incredible. I really wish hg would made an open world arknight game in the time of the ancient where the wendigoo is thriving, sarkaz at its peak fighting seaborne and dragon of yen ( i dont know if its nian sister or pre split nian sibling ). It would be a bloodborn level game. And i'm honestly would love ancient terra more than waifu-fication terra.

Absolutely incredible. AK is so post-Apocalyptic Sci-fi that the fantasy elements usually go a bit unnoticed, but there is so much matter there. The worldbuilding is definitely masterclass.
