@@Naoto-kun1085 "thirsty" is actually "sist me"! the "re" sound happens before thirsty. I can hear both, so i hope this explanation helps you hear it too.

[@itsOasus]

I still have never felt more threatened by a song lyric in my life. "For you, the time has come. The sun is setting." One of the depictions of Azem is the sun. Which makes sense if you consider that the sun travels from the East and sets in the West. She is literally saying that shes going to kill you with that lyric.

[@SaveMeXenu]

Even ignoring the Azem connection, she's saying that anyway. It's not that deep.

[@zeelyweely1590]

Oh! This is a new upload, I thought I was having a stroke when I realized it was the savage mechanics. "H-HAS IT ALWAYS BEEN THE SAVAGE?! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!"

[@CombativeMedic]

"Here I rise, to claim my prize" is the only lyric I guessed correctly. I wouldn't have thought "Thirsty for war" was "Resist me no more" - but like the prize lyric, it suits her character. Lahabreah said she'd burn the world if it meant she'd "rise" to find her "prize" in the ashes, and in that process she manipulated or forced others to her will. Truly a cruel woman. 😢

[@Greco4915]

And all the pain she inflicted onto Erichthonios in her obsessive pursuit of Apotheosis

[@abyssalcrisis]

I heard "Thirsty for war" while everyone else heard "First we were warned" and honestly I'm glad neither of us were right. "Resist me no more" was NOT on my bingo card though.

[@AoyagiMei]

Really love how the P4 part of the song lines up with limit cut if you pull when the lyrics start.

[@autumneagle]

What issss limit cut

[@aracai15]

@@autumneagle it's a mechanic from Alexander (specifically A11S (cruise chaser)) where each player gets a number 1-8 above their head and have to resolve the mechanic. It became a catch-all term for any time numbers appear over the players' heads. In this case, the "limit cut" is when add phase happens

[@TheVivi13]

I'm so glad that the "I won't be denied. You are mine, you are blind. A fool till the end" line was accurate because that was one of my favourite parts. I saw some lyrics on other videos that were wack for it.

[@thechrisgrice]

I'm flabbergasted that some people though it was "A cold beady eye to remind, a fool to 'till the end". Like holy shit what is that.

[@RicardoSantos-oz3uj]

I am convinced that Shoebill created the hearth of Sabik. He wasn't created by the ancients. He is more ancient than them and can transverse trough dimensions time and space. And Metion mentioned that he is either the perfect being or has no thoughts at all. As she couldn't read its emotions.

[@Hyskaris]

i want you to know, because of your OG video, the lead up to the "foul and fair" line, i always think of "BEHOLD SUCH POWER AS YOU WILL NEVER WIELD" because it just clicks so well into the background of the music. it's not intrusive, it's IMMERSIVE.

[@Lyu-Phy]

The lyrics are absolutely fitting and firecracker thirsty, banger!

[@Jocksto]

Its still funny that this whole entire song is one gigantic gaslight to Erichthonios and us, the WoL **You** are in her realm. You fell for her bait showing up and you'll still try to wriggle off her. **You** are where she is naught but divine. Where creation is for her to will. **You** are where she controls all creation and where she will consume you to ascend. **Her son** will always be under her, built to be a crippled hen and force to rely succor onto her alone. **Her son** will always be blind, a dog to the leash but loose enough to believe in his own will. And it's not without reason too, Athena deemed it that Erichthonios is hers to control and even sundered, faded and only from a glimmer of a crystal she still beckoned him to her will. The only way Erichthonios even won was to literally succumb every fiber of his essence out of Claudien and die alongside her. In reality, Athena always won against Erichthonios and the only way she lost was him using her strings against herself.

[@enlongjones2394]

Thing is, Erichthonios managed to escape her in the end. He manages to align his memories with Claudien to force Athena out. In the end, what is left of Erichthonios’s memories are with his reincarnation. What Athena saw in the end was a vision wrought from *her* mind, and the last shreds of what she was able to cling to of Erichthonios.

[@laerwen]

Erich escaped her and eclipsed Athena. He grew, while she remained merely mediocre, a wannabe hemitheos, fallen short due to her own narcissism. He won because he realized his power. She had no influence once he realized that. She lost, brought down by her own vision of her son - one she could not fully control.

[@Syogren]

Erichthonios really went "I can't win, but you can lose" and it rules

[@Caedusea]

It requires you to do a learning curve, but once you get it, it's not really that bad. You can jump into P9S now, even. I still see fresh prog parties for it in Aether. Just make sure you have: appropriate food, researched the fight or at least the first half of the mechanics, be decent at your role/class. Mistakes are common and you will find yourself killing the party a bunch of times, and maybe them killing you a bunch of times, but as long as you all are in the same prog point, it's all good.

[@Lyu-Phy]

Do it! Just toss right in and enjoy chill practice runs, it'll be fun.

[@Swimgeist]

Like a previous commenter said, there is a learning curve, but it isn’t steep, imo. I started doing extremes/savage in Endwalker, and I’d say pretty much anyone can do it if they put in the time to learn the fights + keep a level head if progging in PF.

You know that period of time between Shadowbringers and Endwalker when you've found out Hydalen was a primal all along, and there was just this implication that maybe we've been tempered, and Hydalen might actually be evil and leading us astray? A lot of these lyrics feel like they were written for the final boss of some "Evil Hydalen" timeline the story never went down.

[@mintpanda1]

they confirm early on in a realm reborn that we cannot be tempered *because* of hydaelyn, and then later on in shadowbringers, they say zodiark and hydaelyn can't temper in the first place. the only primals that temper are the ones the ascians taught the beast tribes to summon with flawed creation magicks

[@MissingNovice]

@@mintpanda1 When do we hear that hydalen and zodiark cant temper? Emet Selch admits himself that Zodiark tempered him. There was absolutely a time when it seemed like the reason we couldn't be tempered by a primal was because we were ALREADY tempered by a DIFFERENT primal (Hydalen.) Like its obvious now that isn't the case, but from mid-shadowbringers to mid-endwalker they were being dodgy enough with Hydalen's motivations that you'd be forgiven for thinking something might be up with her. I know cus I have a friend going through Shadowbringers right now and is sharing these exact thoughts with me and I'm just shutting up and saying nothing about em... but I feel like if he ever heard this song out of context he'd be forgiven for thinking its an evil Hydalen singing to a rebelling Warrior of Light.
