Dark Souls Lore: The Legend of Artorias the Abysswalker

[@travistreadway3180]

at the end...i swear...i cried

[@haseohack2160]

lol i cried too

[@travistreadway3180]

Never thought that people would like +1 this so much, lol i feel loved in a way but no really i cried hard that ending was too much for me

[@crazyinMS]

the only other time this game has made me is when I die and forgot to rest at the bonfire

[@IceNomada]

Manly tears for Artorias ;_;

[@YourBrain]

travis treadway We Cried.

[@whanowa]

Still the best Dark Souls lore series ever made!

[@raphaelmarec2625]

"A balance, a harmonie of strengh, faith and wisdom had crafted Artorias into a devastating weapon of Londran." That sentance is actually very clever ( and very well written by the way ) considering the fact that these are the most important characteristics that you need in order to wield his sword. Well done sir, well done indeed.

[@ThunderDong]

Absolutely poetic. I love it. This is the kind of stuff ancient Greek and Roman poets wrote about. Keep it up, sir.

[@TheChaosGear]

fun fact: hideki miyazaki was inspired by the manga berserk, For Artorias almost represents guts, both Artorias and Guts are battle harden warriors, he wields a giant great sword that no normal human can wield, though not cut off he cannot use his left hand, guts has a fake left arm. And both are consumed by some darkness that puts them in a blind rage attacking anybody friend or foe.

[@Aloenam]

Just getting into the Berserk Manga and I'm liking it so far. And yes now that you mention it, Guts and Artorias share some interesting similarities.

[@xaviernomar2156]

but artorias isn't a right handed, he was left handed his left handed stopped working cuz of going to the abyss alone with sif. He was forced to learn to use his right hand

[@CuttNSee]

Watching this comment in 2020: Gael left the chat.

[@enashimo]

Xavier Nomar this is a late comment and i agree if artorias could wield his weapon with his left hand he’ll be unstoppable

[@kristofb5013]

I knew Artorias was modelled on Guts. The hound/wolf themes, both wielding ridiculously oversized swords, the rage and other stuff. However I never connected the dots when it came to the broken/lost arm.

[@PartOfTheGame]

The end of this still makes me cry. That is what a good story can do to anyone.

[@Jaoken]

Atorias will be remembered rip atorias

[@migueltan1080]

So this is where the Adeptus Costodes came from...

[@CalvinSolidCJoseph]

The ending got me all teary...

[@Bazus05]

The last part I was thinking " Behind this mask is more than a man, but a idea and Ideas, are bulletproof."

[@Squantoon]

Still the best KZbin video ever made

[@TerraMantis]

+Squantoon Thanks Squantoon =)

[@keithchamp]

Yea mate...honestly you did a terrific job telling the story and your editing and creation of the story is very impressive. ...i hope you pursue a career in media or make a movie, you got skill

[@wezzy9437]

+TerraMantis Hi I was wondering how you were able to use Artorias' sword in the left hand? Was it a mod or something? If so I'd really appreciate it if you could share that mod because it would be super useful for an Artorias cosplay.

[@artorias7466]

Still one of the characters that i like the most (as u can see)

[@thervan8114]

+Wez Wez I think his greatsword is oneo f the only ones in the game that is held in the opposite hand that most of them are held in.

[@markrooker9734]

If the story of Dark Souls was given a movie, it would become one of my favourites :) The story is so rich that a film or a book would sell like hot cakes :D

[@charleswalters5536]

Don't know man Movie of a long game with such lore like darksouls's. Maybe something like the walking dead.

[@THERADRUSSIAN114]

it take more movies than the harry potter series.

[@ParallaxFPV]

I don't know that a film would do it justice, perhaps a book, but it'd end up being dumbed down by hollywood i think. They'd make it into a generic action movie in which "the chosen one" has to use magic and combat to kill zombies and save the kingdom. Perhaps a series of movies would allow them the room to tell such a deep story. I think the personal triumphs you make throughout the game give you the special connection with the story and those involved, you feel how oppressive the world has become, I don't think you could capture that in the same way the game does. I absolutely adore the Dark Souls story though and it'd be pretty awesome to read books explicitly detailing the events that lead up to the current lordran, the details of each character's involvement. I don't read books very often but i'd read the shit out of that.

[@THERADRUSSIAN114]

A book series would be better. I've read more books than I've seen movies, and the movie version of a book is always worse. The book version tells the story better. They don't take 2 or three hours to read, so there more room for story.

[@LAZI777]

Everbody loves hotcakes!!!!!

[@Y4manata]

i shall slay Manus in YOUR armor, with YOUR sword Artorias!

[@demonicscout613]

Do that and avenge artorias's corruption

[@PelinalWhitestrake36]

nah im going to us giant dads armor...THE LEGEND NEVER DIES!!!!!

[@meh.3868]

It's allll about atorias

[@PelinalWhitestrake36]

i kill elfs...and im Robot..also ..you have my Blessing holy damage 3+

[@jdogpayne238]

Pelinal Whitestreak Hey, Pelinal! Up for some elf killing?

[@UNO2790]

I refused to believe Artorias was mauled down by Manu :'( He and sif were swarmed by creatures of the abyss, in order to save sif he put his shield down to form an protective aura around sif. In hopes of luring the creatures away from sif, Artorias swings his cursed sword bravely but without his shield the knight becomes tainted even more for each steps he takes on his way up to the surface. (that's why he's still killing mobs in the cut scene)

[@CrimsonReaper189]

it does not matter how many times i watch this video the story of autorias and the music make me feel sad and you tell the story perfect

[@19silver95]

And that's why I honor his memory and play with just his equipment

[@zethiark346]

19silver95 I wear just the armor in memory of him much like Cloud and Tifa wear a red ribbon in memory of Aerith, and I wear it to the end as Artorias would have stood.

[@Thunderrokk]

Yo I actually cried because of the music and the lore . I'm am a super dark souls fan

[@Kermthefrog]

+19silver95 I wear his chest piece with the elite knight set in honor of Artorias. It also looks really cool with the elite knight set.

[@TerraMantis]

+That one guy Thanks =)

[@uzairafsar7535]

+TerraMantis I Have to say nicely done video

[@baldbeardedbassist]

The more of these lore videos I watch the more I realize Dark Souls is a terribly sad and tragic game. Well done TerraMantis, and well done From Software

[@lannyalexan1822]

I've watched this way back, dark souls became one of my favorite games to play. I got pretty good at it, upgrading armor and weapons with titanite. My late friend showed me this, and we shared our journey together. Ornstein was his favorite, mine was Artorias. I felt fulfilled playing this with him, we were like children again, fascinated by fantasy, and swords thanks to Dark Souls. He was my best friend, someone I'd consider nearly as a brother, each time I play Dark Souls, I get emotional. In Dark Souls 3, after defeating the Nameless King, and finding the Dragonslayer Armor in the area after it's unlocked. I nearly cried, he would have been ecstatic to see that From Software went all nostalgic for the fans. I realized that the roles had changed, he was my Artorias, and I was his Ornstein. I apologize for the comment, and getting all emotional. Dark Souls brought me closer to him, and I regret so many things that were left unsaid, its been a long year. I never truly moved on, and I miss him dearly. You're in the darkness, perhaps afraid, or maybe even waiting. You're alone, but one day, I hope, I will get to see you. Rest in peace my friend. Goodbye, for now. Thank you, Terramantis for the great video. It's still my favorite video on youtube.

[@seanwegner9925]

"A Hunter is never alone." That's a quote from Bloodborne but you can replace Hunter with Knight or whatever and it works for Dark Souls. Thanks for sharing your story and I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you find solace and peace sometime soon, fellow struggler! Keep on struggling!

[@stormtrooperelite1453]

Absolutely beautiful. Including the detail that Artorias was left handed. You deserve a medal

[@ThEN003tr0ll]

How is his left arm broken if he is left handed, a shield is always placed in the non dormant hand therefore it does not make sense he is left handed, this is because he broke his arm using his great-shield, his left arm broke due to the pressure the shield placed on it.

[@faria19_90]

+Boba Fett dude. he is left handed xD

[@ashtonhornbeck3896]

+Boba Fett He is the person on the cover art of the US version. He wields his greatsword in his left hand, and his shield in his right. His right arm was, in theory either broken by himself while fighting his corruption or during his trials in the abyss.

[@ashtonhornbeck3896]

+Ashton Hornbeck Sorry, I meant left arm was broken

[@Elmo914]

@@ThEN003tr0ll Not necessarily, if that was the case then the majestic greatsword in dark souls 2 wouldn't be left handed. The pauldron on his left hand proves that he his left handed. As sword arms required more protection. It's more like he shielded sif with his right and tried to block whatever abyssal nightmare from himself with his left hand holding his sword.

[@Drocksas]

While Vaati's version made me want to cry, this gave me flat-out chills, and had me teary, yet inspired. Bravo

[@__________________________Fred]

Can somebody please make a movie out of this?

The feels man, the feels. I keep finding myself coming back to this video. Really great work.

[@rayyanmolla8370]

I made two of my friends who did not even play dark souls, watch this video.And they got all teared up. Youre doing an amazing job mate :D

[@404Yaiba]

Damn, this video brought out all my feels. This was literally expertly well made, Everything from the battles, small animations, etc. You fully used the game to its entirety to make this video come out perfectly well made. I must say, you deserve this subscriber. That was the most fantastic rendition of my favorite character of all time.

[@angusrangers8]

Wow, the ending made me tear up a little bit. That wasn't expected. Good job. :D

[@BassesMike]

Ive watched this twice now, first for information of lore, second because of its great workmanship. This video is well edited and told, I enjoy every moment of this tale. Perfect mesh of video and music made me favorite this video. Thank you for your work.

[@markiefoo]

I wish there was a parallel universe where artorias lived and destroyed the abyss.. this is makes me cry

[@BlackfeatherLegion]

I'm a big fan of stories with time travel and parallel universes, so I'm writing such a story, based on the Age of Dark Playthrough of the game, and making The Chosen Undead an Antagonist to the story.

[@trevanangle6736]

Marek Šuran same dude every time

[@Spherrum]

About "Bad Chosen Undead" and parallel universe... you should see video Dark Souls Story ► Oscar the Fateless by VaatiVidya

[@gerysumual9064]

Yeah... nevertheless, I think the point of that story is to call the best in ourselves to come out and strive to manifest it in the world. (Kind of a religious thinking/belief I suppose)

[@zombiefriend]

The music at the end was perfect. These videos are definitely the best lore videos I've seen.

[@SpiderriaN]

Everything fits this video. The music, the video clips, the audio. Everything about this video was perfect. So beautiful. You really get a great feel in this vid about why Dark Souls is such a great game. About how well thought out and well put the lore is in this masterpiece of a game. Leave a like if you agree.

[@JamesMBC]

Spider Slayer 5 I agree! This video exemplifies Dark Souls' lore: obscure, deep, intricate. It also shows in a way the essence of Dark Souls, and many other things in life: an epic battle against overwhelming odds. Even the greatest of champions can fail, only an unbreakable will can bring victory. But even fallen heroes serve as an inspiration to the ones still standing, strengthening the flame in their hearts.

[@TheThecreeperparty]

I'm not crying, its those damn onion cutting ninjas again ;-;

[@trevanangle6736]

Donald Trump lol

[@Uselesslink]

Dang they got you too?

[@d3nyd]

I don't think it's entirely true that Artorias never slew a Darkwraith. Clearly he had a hand in fighting back the Darkwraiths of New Londo. He had to make a covenant with the denizens of the Abyss (likely Kaathe) to do so (hence the ring, Covenant of Artorias), and that in turn cursed his sword into the Cursed Greatsword of Artorias that is acquirable by the player. He was given a Silver Pendant to help him fight off the dark for his efforts in New Londo, similar to the one the player can get in Oolacile. THAT is what gave him the title of 'Abysswalker', not the Oolacile ordeal. He was chosen to deal with the Abyss overtaking Oolacile BECAUSE he was the Abysswalker.

[@Dracus385]

it's not totally sure or clear if artorias was really involved to fight the darkwraith as the gate's keepers(maybe minus the one found in blightown, the girl) flooded new londo before everything had gone too wild(i doubt that Artorias would let that happens without doing something)

[@murosteel]

i salute you, abysswalker... in my eyes... you will always be the greatest warrior...

Thank you.

[@manki8706]

144 people have no idea how much effort went into this.

[@ronaldclews301]

I always wandered who would take time out to dislike something like this even if it's not your thing you can't consider this bad! I love DS so obviously I like his content but idk if I ever disliked a vid tht wasn't like really bad.

[@FBragger69]

Same here lol I think I've disliked like 6 vids in all haha wtf is wrong with these people...the abyss took them I guess lmao

[@Purrplewolf]

It needs a British narrator. American accents don't mix well with DS

His story is the only one that made me cry a bit.

[@Necrophite78]

Terramantis, Your video's (This one, Manus and New Londo) really have an emotional way to bringing the lore. Those vids really touched me and I don't cry easily, maybe it's because I love Dark Souls so much.

[@andresalles6627]

Wow... the ending brought me tears, Well done Mantis, I dont think anyone could have told this tale better

[@RufusMosis]

I just come back here from time to time and watch this awesomeness as if i have found it for first time. One of the best pieces on youtube for sure.

[@BeccaBuckLebowski]

I have to come back to this video (and the Manus one) at least twice a year. They're just so damn good. It's like my Animatrix of Dark Souls.

[@RodionsDD]

Now and then I return to this, and every time I think: 'this is such a beautiful video essay'. The mood set by your storytelling, editing and the music was the thing that really inspired me to explore the recesses of the Souls games. Thank you for that Steve. Hell I even made a nostalgic 50-track mixtape inspired by this.

[@TheOcatvio]

God Damn this was a well made video, the ending almost made a little tear run down my cheeck. :')

[@rafaellapac]

Never once a lore video gave me chills or made me feel this close to a character. I can only say congratulations and hope that you keep doing this amazing job that you have done so far. This is by far the best Dark Souls lore video I've seen so far and I look forward to the Dark Souls 2 ones.

[@lysarig]

wow very deep. have to say dark soul have the most deep and dark epic story ever.

[@Nemphyss]

Wonderful to look back on this amazing lore and now with the remastered version announced today, this is perfection.

Yes, still the best lore video on dark souls to date. This guy needs more subs, likes an love. Pls do lore vids like these for Shadows Die Twice

[@davenorton5576]

IF DARK SOULS CAN DO SUCH A SAD STORY WHY CAN'T SKYRIM?

[@finnthehu200]

Dave Norton because skyrim will never be as cool as DARK SOULS!!!

[@kasparpantzare8529]

Dave Norton because Skyrim tells you it's story while Dark Souls give you the bones, but then gives you only silence so you desperetly comes up with a story or listens to someone elses story about what happend. As terramantis says it's hard to come by truth in Lordran. who's to say what truth, right and wrong. this is why Skyrim can't make a such a sad and convinsing and sad story as Dark Souls it says to much...

[@squancho9720]

don't you mean the elder scrolls you filthy casual

[@davenorton5576]

brett montour If I stated "The elder scrolls" Then that could mean any were between Arena to Skyrim. I said Skyrim to be more specific.

[@finnthehu200]

yeah o_o

[@RMeitzen]

I love the fact that you paid attention to the little details, Artorias being left handed and his armor being worn out by the abyss, summoning Sif for battle, indeed a great video.

[@snowymoonman]

damn. that one really touched me.

[@maxwellthomas4941]

I’m not gonna lie I think that is legitimately best KZbin video I’ve ever seen in my life.

[@xDagoz]

Damn, I got chills at the last part of faded Artorias :_)

[@juanimto]

The way you narrate, and the work you put into doing these videos... You have earned a fan :D Artorias should be proud of you :')

[@crazyadam9281]

I find it awesome that Artorias design was inspired by Guts(Berserk anime/manga series) in his Berserk Armour.

[@Gameplayery]

you know i though about the cursed sign on Guts's neck, it's the same curse as the DarkSign (undead curse)

[@crazyadam9281]

***** Never thought about that tbh.

[@EddieMorphling]

Great attention to detail to make Artorias left handed in your video. I honestly shed a tear at the end. Well done man.

[@gamerdeal4923]

I think i am crying :''(((( rly good job man.... straight into the heart

[@Tracker947]

That ending was perfect. I think some Gladiator music "Now we are Free" would fit in perfectly... You did Artorias a lot of justice with this.

[@Blackmaster99]

Man, too many feels, now I'm fucking crying.

[@trevanangle6736]

Blackmaster99 I feel you it happens to me every time

[@TheTrueRoker]

Excellent writing and cinematics. I'd wager that someone who has never even played Dark Souls would enjoy this video. You sir, get my first subscription in years.

[@nfmaster4851]

That first Nietzsche quotation is also the one used in Berserk......well, considering Artorias has *that* many parallels to Guts, it's not suprising

[@walterwilliams5222]

I became curious about Dark Souls lore, and came across your channel during my search. You are one hell of a storyteller. This was an amazing video, especially your closing statements. Well done.

[@Artoriosis]

oh my word..... that ending was beautiful

[@orphansrequiem4999]

Ending with Artorias's ghost over Ciaran was chilling, subed

[@devinhays1867]

The ending of the video brought tears to my eyes.

[@mojotheaverage]

Is there a way to make a video your favourite video? Not just a favourite but THE favourite? This is literally the best video on youtube!

[@Wulfy294]

I honestly feel like crying...

[@raphaelmarec2625]

That's a really good work man! The structure and the naration were both perfect. I'm really glad that there is people like you to give shape to this game's story, it defenitely deserves it. Keep up the good work! :)

[@celix4n]

See if I get this right: You fight Artorias completely insane and weakened by the abyss, without His greatshield, without Sif, with damaged armor and sword by the looks of Him and as of Dark Souls 2 the dude was left-handed so He fought You (fucked You up repeatedly) with His non-sword hand too?!... Jesus Christ, what sort of Ass kickery would`ve happened if HALF those things on that list were gone?

[@432neptune]

And that's why Chuck Norris looks under his bed for Artorias the Abbyswalker.

[@Kalm15]

Then ask yourself, if Manus deafeated Artorias and cast him back out of the Abyss, how strong must Manus have been originally? Perhaps he too was weakened by their battle, such that the chosen undead did naught but build upon Artorias' handiwork.

[@celix4n]

Kalm15 ...Wow, I didn`t even think about that. In fact You`re probably completely right, if Manus wasn`t weakened I doubt the Chosen Undead would`ve beaten Him in the first place. Although, Manus did have an extreme advantage against Artorias with the fight being in His domain and Artorias natural weakness to darkness (Which the chosen undead lacks). Not to mention We all know how cheap darkbead is and Artorias was missing His greatshield too when He REALLY needed it.

[@JesterHellequin]

Kalm15 well did'int it just say in the video that Artorias got credit for the chosen undead's work

[@andrealves7938]

Years later and I still come back to this video due to its amazing content. You, sir, should be really proud.

[@catchyjam4608]

artorias is my favorite character in dark souls, this made me sad ;-;

Masterfully done, TerraMantis. That video was exceptional, the editing was great, and the ending gave me chills upon chills.

[@Tracker947]

I am now a subscriber. Amazing job.

[@Zach-ci4sz]

Came back to this video after about a year. Got to the end and I gotta say, my eyes are watering. This story is so powerful. The way it was presented here was perfect, the speech at the end is so impactful. This is a masterpiece.

[@SlightEcho]

I'M LIKE HAPPY/SAD RIGHT NOW THIS WAS GREAT!

[@MrSmigglesRD]

One of my favorite videos you've done. Dark Souls is such a wonderfully woven game and I've lately become more and more obsessed with not only game play but all of the lore. It makes me not want to kill anything as so many of the creatures are only victims

[@Vizuhaal]

Visions of Tears...

[@CptZhu]

this one's still the best artorias video from all the others. The artistic value in this one tops the other artorias videos BY FAR

[@DennyDoRight]

Damn that was pretty deep for the lore of just a game.

[@DennyDoRight]

I got chills slightly.

[@RufusMosis]

At the end I almost cried...

[@DennyDoRight]

[@Berkay19931903]

this is the best video you have ever made mate, artorias' lore is epic by itself but the way you explain and touch different point of views, those are the way making this video special !

[@manny27392]

those feels... best channel ever

[@TheLazarusOperation]

8 years later and this is still the best video about Artorias. I love Vatti, but the pure storytelling here is unparred. 'We cried anthem' is still one of my all time favorites. 15/10.

[@Squantoon]

There is not enough like buttons

[@DC111mg]

I admire the way you did this video... separating the legend from the reality, and then tying it all together with such emotional power. I had chills for the duration of Part III. Thank you for this well-thought and touching explanation of the lore surrounding Sir Artorias.

[@MrDanteBurns]

Oh come on! Artorias was my favourite character and you go and make this? I flooded my bedroom after watching this!

[@MrDanteBurns]

Also I really have to ask, why flip the video around and make Artorias left handed?

[@TerraMantis]

MrDanteBurns The inverted footage was only done during the "legend' section of the video or when the portions of the video are simply parable; a parable of a warrior for the light that died facing the dark. It was supposed to represent that a legend or a tale can mirror truth, but even a mirror is not an entirely accurate version of reality. Most people believe I did it to show that he was originally left-handed (as is popular belief) but wields his sword in his right hand during the boss fight due to the fact that his left arm was broken while in the Abyss. In truth, whenever I show Artorias and I'm speaking about "the legend" (across any of my videos) aspect of him I always invert the footage to make it feel slightly off, even before I posed the idea that he was left-handed in my 10 Things video.

[@An_Ian]

TerraMantis nice use of the fog ring at the end

[@Alicielle]

I Never thought a gaming-lore could give me such goosebums and make me almost cry. Good Job you just got a new subscriber :D
