Yes that is very true because if everything was started from somewhere else is from any any point of origin that is from someone who has became the villain who is the victim to a society that is very oppressive against them is the real only cost for the undead attacking and the whole war against the over world and the 2 dimensions who are the netherworld and the ender world for Herobrine, Abigail, Patrick and the other cast in the rainimator verse. All of this could be avoided if society hasn’t wronged them with peace and prosperity.

[@EthanTheHerobrineFan]

Wow, I feel very pity for Herobrine after watching this. The death of his wife, lead him into pure hatred for mankind. We even learned the story of how Sir Patrick got his scar. There is however one story to Herobrine, how exactly did he gain this lightning and necromancy power? Or, “who was” the person that caused him this. In other words, I really like the animation and I really feel pity for Herobrine now.

FInally we got to see where Herobrine comes from. Not born as a warlord thinking he deserves to rule but a humble and simple man who got betrayed by the world he lives in because of the abilities he has. Now, after losing everything he loved, setting on a mission to cleanse the world of the unfairness of the humans by making them part of his undead army. To think that the hole events from the first season where caused by two thugs who thought they could get some fast money. Glad that the one got away eventually got what he deserved. It's really amazing to see where he came from and Sir Patrick as well. I would have never thought he would have come from a place like this where all magic users are brutally slayn without any mercy. They AND their families. I was ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED when I saw Herobrines wife hanging in the tree. That was so unexpected. It's also interessting that Vanessa already owned the netherstar she would later hand over to Abigail. As well as Herobrines glowing eyes. It's seemed like it wasn't him then but an alter ego that was hidden deep inside his soul which only comes to show when he is in great danger, fear for his family or in rage with a thirst for vengeance like we see in this video that he is unaware of even existing . And now that his family is lost to him this alter ego - the HEROBRINE we know - is all there is with seemingly no trace of his former self. You and your team did an outstandingly AMAZING job again. I really like Herobrine in this universe and always wanted to see more of him. Great job

Fine. Steve, having received the gift, was afraid of its manifestation, since the Inquisition burned everyone, who was involved in the occult or magic. Steve is Abigail's father, which was a pleasant surprise for me personally. The lack of control of his gift of "Lightning Magic" led him to carelessly strike one of the robbers with lightning, Steve was just protecting his family. And after the undeserved execution of his wife, Steve finally went berserk and became a Herobrine. When we were young, we loved heroes. It was only when we grew up that we began to understand the villains. Another masterpiece from the Reanimator. Impressed.

His desire to capture Frostbourn may have been merely an excuse to find his lost daughter, but he was never reunited with her until the very end.

[@thepingpong1887]

I think that ultimately Herobrine became "blinded" by his power/desire of vengeance beauce technically in "We Are the Danger" he saw her Daugther (Even though she became a demon and that she probably doesn't remember him at that time)

​@@thepingpong1887you also got to remember she was killed on that same day as rain, but the nether people came back and brought her to life than nether star(*I think that's how you say it😅*) she took an arrow to the Head and that might mean Herobrine didn't know it was her at the time because don't you think he would have brought her back to life if he knew that was his daughter😅

[@railfanmaximstill7279]

@RileyAfton-qw9gj Well, he might have realized it and told the Nether King about it after. In the opening scene of "We are the Danger," he says, "Send a raven to the pig king," as if he has had contact with the Nether King for a long time. (I couldn't fully understand the words he actually said if he said something similar but it was worded differently than I'm going off what I heard)

[@D3m0n747]

@@RileyAfton-qw9gj WAIT! He does know that the girl is his daughter I think. Because if you go and watch the special episode "Herobrine's revenge" which has a little extra at the start to "the struggle is real" then you will see at 1;46 in that episode when the girl slides under the gate yet Herobrine is watching her do that.

This flashback connect numerous other episodes like "The Struggle" because it finally solves the question on How did the infection start? How the Frostbourn was "founded" by Patrick and why? or in "Goodbye" we find out that The rivalry between Patrick and HeroBrine wasn't so simple. But now i have a question for why is it that in "The Struggle" Abigail did't reunite with his father or in "Danger", if Herobrine really wanted to reunite with her daughter, why did't he stop the war and just had peace with the Frostbourn if he had already reunited with her? Edit: Thx for 300 likes!! And i saw a lot of ideas of what could really had happened after to herobrine

[@Dxffa]

[@aaronscott7467]

It's not that easy to just "stop the war". What about everyone he's killed along the way? Those he's wounded, forced out of their homes? If he does that, he doesn't get to just reunite with his daughter because he'll be in hiding for the rest of his life. At best he'll have people coming after him night and day because of it, and at worst he'll turn himself in and be executed immediately since there isn't a realistic way to contain him.

[@LightBorne493]

Watching this, I like how his backstory doesn't start with him being good at combat. You can see just how much he relies on his lightning. Sure it's blatant he has a knack for it, but his movements are still slow and you can see how often he has to use his lightning to win engagements against the more skilled guards.

[@jovelamita9286]

Imagine if he was good at combat, Ceris would be done for

[@VivaanGupta-uj9fe]

@jovelmita9286 Yeah, but here, when just discovered his powers' true limits he could fling lighting at the guards like he was Palpatine. Twenty-ish years later, the only lighting he he use was when he teleported away from Rain in The Struggle. Herobrine absolutely got better at combat, he completely crippled Grandmaster Patrick in 30 SECONDS. If he had his powers in Goodbye, The Ender Watchers would likely not be able to catch Herobrine (His teleportation) and leave with a dead matriarch.

I just rewatched The Struggle for old times sake, and you know what I discovered? The lyrics of the song almost PERFECTLY line up with Herobrine's new backstory!

I’m really happy that you made this animation partly reflecting on how the olden times just attack “witches” or “magic users” for just absolutely nothing.

[@tobymiller-g5i]

Lol, it wasn't absolutely "nothing" seeing how most of the time the rituals involved some sort of sadistic element to it, like torture or sacrifice of another human being. So no. It wasn't for "nothing".

[@fallen_moons]

@@tobymiller-g5i Well it depends if they actually did it

[@tobymiller-g5i]

@@fallen_moons Most of of the time yes. But you have to understand that these "cults" and "groups" were very rare, so rare that the people who were burned were small and the people who didn't perform any type of sacrificial rituals were even smaller. You also have to understand that these sects caused other problems. Take the Albigensian crusade for example. Although not a witch cult, it was a heretical group, which throughout the Medieval Era heretics suffered more than these sorceres because heretics were more common hence there were more consequences. You also have to understand that the religion of Medieval Europe was mostly catholic, and that these practices went against their religion. Which is why the institution of the Inquisition was important, because unlike the video if there was a claim that someone was a witch or a heretic then they would be questioned by the inquisition. (Very learned members of the Clergy) 9/10 the accusation was false and life just kept going. If they happened to be a witch or a heretic, then they would be asked to leave by a certain period. And funnily enough these witches or heretics were apart of dangerous groups with horrible ideologies or practices that needed to be destroyed. And as someone is tortured for information about something, so were the witches/heretics about their groups. And as someone is executed for committing horrible atrocities, even as cruel as being hanged or burnt at the stake, so were these witches/heretics. So yes. They did sometimes and sometimes they did it. Am I saying that innocent blood was not spilled sometimes? No, for the Inquisition was certainly not perfect and there was a bit of corruption at times, kinda since the beginning of the world and even until now. So yeah, there you go. I never imagined myself writing this in the comments of a minecraft video.

[@fallen_moons]

@@tobymiller-g5i That is true that the sacrificial rituals are sadistic and would put fear in a lot of people. I do understand why the olden times used to burn witches or cults just to be safe, but this could be viewed in different perspectives. Maybe someone whose family member was accused of magic using would think that the people were in the wrong. Maybe someone whose family member or themselves were hurt by actual cults and despise all of them and jump to judgement. I’m not saying all cults and “witches” are good or evil. I’m simply stating that no one if fully in the right. I never thought I’d have a debate on a Minecraft animation comment section.
