Deya was my first “find” in BOTW when I left the Plateau. The tree sucked me in, and I had to follow it. Cresting that hill in the middle of the night and seeing the charred ruins of that town spread out at the bottom in the moonlight literally knocked the breath out of me. For some reason, it drove home the Calamity concept in a way nothing else had. The little houses reminded me so much of Kakariko in OoT that it was EXACTLY like the feeling I got coming out of the Temple of Time in that game as an adult for the first time. It was like a punch to the gut. Your story only makes it sadder. Brilliant work, guys!

I understand the calamity pretty much immediately, but I had a similar experience upon finding Fort Hateno. It's a sad enough experience, exploring a military fort. Even if they won the war it's sad, because people still died. But the abject horror of their charred wooden barricades, guardians, guardians I already knew were powerful and sick weapons of carnage, just ten feet below. And then talking to a traveller nearby, and he says "this is where Hyrule's last champion fell." how my heart dropped when I realized, that was me. I died here.

[@PacManDreaming]

Over by Lake Illumeni, there's a small farmstead that was wiped out. In BOTW, that area always felt so forlorn. I didn't like going over there because of how lonely the area felt.

[@francisfulloffrenchpeople5637]

The Creating a Champion Book explains what happened here. This village and the lake were separate during the time of the Calamity. The villagers couldn’t see what was going on in Central Hyrule, and didn’t know there was any danger to run from until the Guardians crested the Hills of Baumer. The destruction caused the remains of the village to eventually be swallowed up by Deya Lake and become the marshland we see now. The map for AoC just wasn’t updated except for the village names.

Another thing I think may have really screwed deya is that because of all the hills, Hyrule castle is out of sight, therefore the residence would not be able to know that the calamity had reappeared and once the guardians got there it was too late to run. and they were all killed

[@kenny3949]

The water level might be explained by water drainage. The Dutch used windmills and other contraptions to drain swamp lands for farming. It might be that the villagers of Deya drained the water to make clear land for buildings, while depositing the water in the lake to keep it deep enough for fish. With the villagers gone and the tree blasted down, there would be nothing keeping the water from reclaiming the land

[@KhaotycFilms]

I actually think we are looking into two different problems that this village went through. I believe the village got destroyed initially by guardians, yes, but I don't think the guardians caused the flood or tree to fall. There are key details on the tree that hint away at how it fell. We already theorized that the stone talus came as meteors as we can guess due to the Gisa crater. So, if you go up to the tree, you will find that it has 2 holes on its base. One big one on the opposite side of where it fell and a small one facing the village. Maybe a stone talus just impacted the tree like a meteor, knocked it over, this tree actually broke some sort of small dam, flooded the town that was already probably destroyed. The stone talus could have maybe landed years after the guardians passed. If you check the other smaller hole on the base of the tree, it actually has a perfect trajectory leading to the stone talus. Maybe after landing the stone talus, broke out of the tree that way, rolled down the hill, and took his rest at the center of the town. There is even a second smaller tree (where the korok is found) that is destroyed along the way, showing that something else came tumbling down this way strong enough to break a relatively above average-sized tree.

Something I've always kinda wondered about was what kind of damage PEOPLE themselves might have caused. History supports the fact that when everything hits the fan some people see it as a opportunity to get by with horrible acts because of the lack of law enforcement available. One example is the yiga clan. But, what about 100 years ago before the population was thinned. That small window of time probably had prisoners escaping and people that was always internally bad taking that opportunity.

[@chaosphoenix2812]

Hmm. The attack from above had me thinking it might have been flying guardians destroying the village. Why should they do this? Well in the video they explained why guardians might have come from this village to fort hateno. But i think guardians might take the easiest way to thier target, in this case fort hateno, and that would probably be through dual peaks mountain. Yes a few might have done some damage to deya village, but the most damage would have been done by flying guardians. They are more mobile than stalkers, they can fly and find thier tagets that way and take them out. But why would they go there? Well maybe ganon wanted everything near the castle destroyed, and deya was just too close. He sent flying guardians to obliterate that village and all his inhabitants.

[@azuzziken]

My thoughts exactly. In the game they described how Dueling Peaks was a bit of a bottleneck for the flow of Guardians, but Skywatchers can just fly around them, and it would make sense for them to spread out through the lower ground to the sides of the DPs than venture through the canyon and risking damage to their propellers because we know how windy it gets in there. It would be easy for them to spot Deya Village on their way to Fort Hateno and drop an aerial attack on the way, which would also explain how the villagers didn't even damage a single one.

[@katiel.8174]

Remember. This game alone includes at least 10000 years worth of history...and people still lived in villages like these. This is the only gripe I have with this game. It's like the people in Hyrule are stupid, they have all this Sheikah technology and they can't seem to find a way to improve anything but their defense systems. Shit, Link did more with Tarrey Town in a matter of weeks/months than the Kingdom did in 10 thousand fucking years.

[@candyzombiee]

idk, i kinda get it? most technological advances were made after the sheikah unified with the royal family again after being forced away. most tech and shrines were being excavated just like the divine beasts and everything else. the way i see it, the 10,000 years past war was a veritable burning of the library of alexandria for hyrulians and with the other inferred wars with monsters and possibly other kingdoms after all that time it would delay technological progress. idk though, just a theory and how i prefer to think of it.

Quizá sea realmente un vidente...” which in English say “after going to the place the old man of adenya village told you, you found some good pieces. How did he knew it ?

One of my theories is that Deya Village is the hometown of Astor (what with it being a village that’s home to a Seer in Age of Calamity), so the idea that it was just laid to waste by Guardians on the hilltop makes it just that much more chilling.

[@mxhyrule]

Fucking LOVE THIS INTRO!!!! This is such a good theory, really love it!!! Also, yes, let's play Stardew all day :) the Anakin reference had me wheezing (as you could hear, haha) 💜

[@HyruleGamer]

Glad you love the video! 💜

[@lexisking152]

Hold the phone what the chronological crap is this "34 minutes ago" when the video was 17 minutes ago? WHAT!

@@lexisking152 Haven't you heard of Mother Hyrule? She is a witch who possess powers greater than we've ever seen before. I tried contacting KZbin about this and they said she cannot be stopped 😮

[@HyruleGamer]

Nice!

[@xyackhart]

"Some of you may not even know about this village existing" jokes on you this is where I went to farm for wood (cuz I feel too bad knocking down healthy trees, I only go for dead trees to get wood from). Amazing video! I love the theories you two come up with!

I remembered seeing in Age of Calamity that it was very marshy before the Calamity happened as you said. Loved this video! Two favourite "ZeldaTubers" :D

[@HyruleGamer]

Thank you!

[@faithmcclaskey4705]

I always pronounced it “die-ah”. Is it supposed to be “dae-ah”?

[@HyruleGamer]

Who knows lol

Lol I love that you used a lot of the twilight princess soundtrack in the video. It creates a sad, somber tone💙

[@mxhyrule]

First 😍💕

[@HyruleGamer]

Yes you are!

I honestly don’t like it when people say that.

Had this on for study background, ended up wheeze-laughing at the commentary. You two have such great chemistry this was a joy to watch! x

[@GustavoCalvo]

That was one of the moments of the game, I realized how cruel the story was without saying too much words.

[@LucZeroSix]

Oh, it's me! Also, this viddy was great! Never even noticed Deya village so super interesting :)

[@HyruleGamer]

Thanks!

[@Cassarilla]

This is very interesting and very sad, but it makes sense to me due to the layout of the land. Awesome collaboration! Love both of your channels!

[@HyruleGamer]

Thank you!

[@Aleks-cb7bo]

Great Video Collaboration. 🤘😸👍 Ps. Thnx 4 the Nightmares.

[@imurdad8359]

Since the talus are from space, maybe it crashed landed into the village sometime between modern game and post calamity, then the flooding covered the crater with help of debris

[@remk1096]

I love how this game still has a massive, active fanbase.

[@HyruleGamer]

Yes!

[@tears_of_the_kingdom]

A theory of mine is that an earthquake happened, knocking over the tree and flooding the village, possibly caused by ganon awakening.

[@HyruleGamer]

Interesting

[@roseheartfire]

A truly sad fate. Those poor people. Thank you once again for the video and all the hard work you put into it, as well as the collab. Love those. ~^^~

[@HyruleGamer]

Thanks :)

This gave me the chills, I’ve always loved the game but never thought of it that way.
