I’d love to see a special boss rush resprite so that all the bosses look like they’re acting made of light.

[@Midnight_Minute]

I think that would look pretty sick

[@beans5784]

Maybe Xeroc's proposal is a battle that could kill him

[@Midnight_Minute]

Maybe

[@desestscourge6240]

I think it might be related to Noxus in some way. Xeroc's proposal will become available after having defeated Yharim and Xeroc sends us on a mission back to the Distortion to hunt down Noxus or something akin to that.

[@Midnight_Minute]

@@desestscourge6240 i can also maybe see that

[@AdamantSteele]

Those last two quotes in the rock lore makes it sound like Xeroc wants to go back in time or something. He’s clearly questioning the meaning of time and it’s nature, and perhaps his bossfight will feature time manipulation.

[@MustBeNiceBro]

Indeed that is what I thought as well when he mentioned something about the future haunting us?

[@endymon5240]

I think the past and future but is referring to the dragons being able to indefinitely escape death. Xeroc asks what the price is of eternal, unchanging power, and why the future must be so predictable. Xeroc wanted change.

[@ThatCatByTheStreet-ln2yc5we7d]

Maybe it will go full meta.

[@chinchillaphage6]

Maybe he transports you to a newly created world, takes all your equipment, gives you basic early game items, and fights you at various levels of progression

[@plushling6996]

It's implied through word of god that Primordial light is what the sun is made out of whereas other stars are implied to be smaller collections of mana. For all intents and purposes, Xeroc is the sun god.

[@Midnight_Minute]

Specifically the god of light but yeah

[@felixromero9532]

Does this mean that the power of the Terrarian with the summoner class and the mage class is canonically more powerful than the other classes? XD

I've been looking for a looong Time for a complete calamity lore explanation Ty so much

[@enderlavender]

Theory- Yharim will be fought in the dragon aerie in the Scal lore thing it says that you are strong enough to face me and you should come to the Dragon's Aerie to fight me or something along those lines, anyway i am thinking that the rock could possibly be importent to getting to the dragon's aerie after all it is from the dragon's aerie so it should have some connection to it( search the meaning of Terminus it is related to Roman mythology)

[@Midnight_Minute]

I’m pretty sure we do actually have confirmation that we will be fighting Yharim in the dragons aerie (I think they’re gonna make it its own sub world). I could see the rock playing into that but it’s kind of impossible to tell for now.

[@enderlavender]

@@Midnight_Minute yes i believe so too( it says that we will fight yharim in the dragons aeire in the Scal lore item

[@ArcticCN]

@@enderlavender "When you are prepared: seek the grave of the Light, at the summit of the Dragon Aerie. I await your challenge" i believe the grave of light is the rock, as the boss rush has the light infused

[@enderlavender]

its a good theory untill you realize thatit says to go to the summit of the dragon aerie implying that it is a place not a rock

[@sebasblos1]

@@ArcticCN pretty sure, grave of light is just a way to say that zeratros corpse is buried there

[@aceofconquest5745]

Perhaps the proposal is that Xeroc is willing to make the player a God. But perhaps also the amount of strength that god will have is directly correlated to the base strength of the one who obtains that godly power. Perhaps Xeroc wants to make you a God so you can govern the world of Terraria as a steward of it. Being a productive and benevolent emperor of the world unlike Yharim? Perhaps Xeroc would want this as his motivation because he had more benevolent intentions when taking the Dragon King's Auric soul while still being a traitor and his actions wrong. And saw Yharim as someone who ultimately was not a good ruler of the world once he conquered it, since Yharim let the world crumble out of depression and apathy. (Yharim clearly also did not destroy the Corruption or Crimson when he could have with Calamitas's brimstoneflames, but did to his political/military enemies of the pre-burnt desert.) Showing in this example to not care about the citizens of Terraria, b/c if he had he would have gone back to the evil parts of the world to cleanse them to prevent the whole of terraria from being consumed by this evil burden.

[@Midnight_Minute]

I don’t really see how he would make you a God (cause auric soul) but I could definitely see him giving you power or something

[@aceofconquest5745]

@@Midnight_Minute I considered him giving you part of the Primordial Light could do it. Though the cal team plans to have us fight Xeroc right? So maybe we betray him for power, or say "Destiny is for the weak." or I'm wrong.

[@ThatCatByTheStreet-ln2yc5we7d]

What if after you do post Yharim boss rush you get the Auric soul to do Xeroc's bidding, but you turn on Xeroc and fight him last (this would probubbly not happen but its metal as fuck.)

[@realmicrojave]

Your incredible. I honestly can’t find anyone else doing these vids. Hats off man👍✌️

[@Midnight_Minute]

Thanks!

[@DM_1016]

Yesss bro finally, someone's making calamity lore vids. Could you do one on SCal? From the lore and some discussions online, I gathered she was a child soldier for Yharim who was forced to do atrocities, with Permafrost as her mentor/father figure. Even with what we have, I still wonder who the heck is she, who her biological parents/family are and how she ended up finding Yharim.

[@Midnight_Minute]

I will end up doing a video on Calamitas, put just so you know a lot of the pre yharim backstory I think was in the old lore and not the rewrite. There is still a decent amount of stuff to discuss though

[@DM_1016]

@@Midnight_Minute Yeah, I heavily doubt the writers are done with the lore because to me it barely scratches the surface of the entire story. The old lore was excellent and actually got me hooked on the mod, the story was rich and it just made the world feel alive. The new lore excels in connecting everything together, for example if we include the bestiary, it links Aquatic Scourge's death to the upgraded tier 2 acid rain event. Pretty neat!

[@enderlavender]

@@DM_1016 Hey you could check out Photon's Channel he has done lore vidieos on most calamity bosses i belive(including calamitas)

[@Call_Me_Cuda]

ok. here's a random theory. What the "eternal night beyond" refers to MIGHT be Noxus. Given that the sprite that used to be in the files used colors that resembled common nighttime colors, and that Noxus is implied to be a dark entity, i think this would fit. As for the proposal, maybe it's something related to Noxus? Maybe Xeroc is testing your strength to see if you are capable of taking on Noxus, or maybe help him do so? What if the Primordial Light cannot banish Noxus anymore? What if thanks to the DoG Noxus has grown so powerful that Xeroc knows he can't defeat him on his own, and his proposal is him asking for your help???

[@Midnight_Minute]

It’s definitely possible

[@harounai0149]

I may very easily be wrong, but if you pay close attention to the lore items dropped by bosses, I got the impression that: We, as the character ARE Yharim (far fetched, I know), and that we have awakened after some sort of long slumber. The lore items constantly refer to Yharim as “I”, and it is even mentioned in “The Roar of the Jungle Dragon” that we shall hear his dying roars, and that an enemy awaits us that we cannot defeat. Even saying that our rival stands in his way, I think Yharon may be trying to stop us. Also in the Hive mind lore, it is said that they purely harness the power of gods, while weak ones. If we fight and defeat these “gods” so early on, who’s to say we aren’t just Yharim warming up for what is to come? Another theory I have formed is that we may be Xeroc. In the later parts of the rock’s lore, it seems to reference a goal of time travel. Maybe we are a past Xeroc from the either Past: we are being tested by our future self whom has achieved time travel and come back to prepare us. The rock is a keepsake because it was given to us as a sign of recognition by ourselves Or future: something happened and we were laid to rest, the awakening lore suggests wings and worthiness. Sounds fit for a corrupt god. We, too have achieved time travel and that may even be why we were incapacitated. We now walk a path of bloodshed to reach what we once were, and stop him from doing something horrible. Just vague theories, please share your constructive criticism with me! 🙏

[@Watermelon-r3l]

The terrarians lore is completely up to us (except our ability to name, that’s always shit) The writers want the terrarian to be up to you to decide since the game is sandbox they want you to decide yourself what you are

[@MrKepoMAN]

I love this school presentation typa video

[@crow2596]

great video

[@rastuyas]

i love calamity lore vids

[@BananaPo]

Great vid! Also heres some extra stuff that may or may not be acurate: "Banishes the eternal night beyond" I think this may just be referring to night time lol The first person who got the terminus might've been Silva, Goddess of Nature. my only proof of this is cuz silva blessed primordial wrym and primordial wyrm hates primordial light "When the battle is over and the dust began to settle" i think this was after the fight with moonlord vs the dragons. "What is the true price of the past being ever eternal" this was xeroc's thinking, that maybe the dragons aren't strong enough to be protecters of terraria "Why must our future forever haunt us?" Xeroc being worried for the future, cuz if another eldritch being like moonlord invades terraria who is going to stop them? the dragons race were almost wiped out and if a powerful being invades now (noxus maybe??), it might be the end for terraria. This is also why i think xeroc ascended to godhood and shared the knowledge on how to ascend, maybe its cuz to have gods protect terraria instead of dragons also i MIGHT be super wrong on these lol, these are just theroies and i could be very wrong

[@Midnight_Minute]

Thanks for commenting, you brought up a lot of really good points here (idk how I forgot about the moonlord vs dragons fight for that lol). I do really like your interpretation of Xeroc’s ascension being necessary to make sure outer beings don’t interfere, I haven’t actually thought about that and it lines up with a lot of things.

[@cosmilitegaming6262]

xerocs proposal has to be a fight, i couldnt see it being anything else, and i think we will be worthy after helping defeat noxus, i think i remember seeing something saying that you would stall noxus until xeroc comes and kills him.

[@krzystajer5485]

assuming we would fight Noxus

[@Midnight_Minute]

I think it’s been confirmed that we will be able to fight noxus at some point

[@freshavacodo555]

It's been confirmed that both Noxus and Xeroc are super bosses after you fight Yharim whom is the canonically final boss, meaning basically that Xeroc is the final final boss.....the TRUE final boss

[@Middanoob]

Fan mods of Calamity have made Goozma, Xeroc, and Noxus before Calamity actually did it 😭😭 Fabsol gotta make Yharim quick (probably in 6 years) before modders beat him to it.

[@Midnight_Minute]

can't wait for the fans to make calamity mod 2

[@DontWorryImNotImportant]

The eternal night from beyond could be in reference to Noxus maybe? I’m not an expert on Calamity lore.

[@Midnight_Minute]

Maybe, but we can’t really be sure

[@Fuzzf]

I can’t remember where I read it but I remember reading a lore item in calamity saying xeroc and zeratros weren’t enemies but friends and their souls fused and created a god

[@Meowlegend7]

I WAS TALKING ABOUT THIS‼️ Not gonna lie, you should talk about some vanilla bosses on Calamity's lore too. They have different lores than in vanilla. The primordial light is interesting, only Xeroc and Empress of Light (which is my favorite boss) accesses it... Maybe we could have more information about this. Xeroc is a good character, as the first God. Next time... Maybe talk about Yharim! He is the antagonist, and he is by far the most important.

[@Midnight_Minute]

Yeah, I’ll probably do a short on some of the vanilla bosses. I’ll probably do more on yharim soon, I just want to space it out a bit

[@santiagoteruel4145]

Not an expert in calamity lore, but xeroc sojnds like he doubts how good the dragons reing was, or alternatively, why he had to kill the dragon king to become a god. Maybe because he didn't wanted to be aservant anymore?

I can see him questioning his rule considering the invasion of Fovos (moon lord) and how poorly that went, hopefully we find out in a future update
