The Pilgrimage Of The Pacifist Slugcat

Its time for the final Rain World: Downpour slugcat campaign, The Saint. This ended up being my favorite of the bunch, despite relying heavily on avoiding creatures instead of combat. There are massive changes to the world, an interesting end goal, and plenty of crazy world building to get into, so strap in.

[@anyafaith3759]

In the iterator room in Rubicon, you can meet 5P and/or Moon there if you ascend them and get some special dialogue. The dialogue differs depending on whether you've ascended just Moon, just 5P, or both. It, in my opinion, clears up a bit of what The Saint is. I'd love to see you go back and do that!

[@cooly1234]

For those who want to be directly told what Saint is: An echo is chained to the thing that was the reason they were an echo. The farm arrays echo loved sitting and looking out across farm arrays way too much in their life, so they were doomed to continue to do so as an echo. This is a common trend, while we don't know why *every* echo is an echo, the ones we do all are sitting in their place of obsession. So what about Saint? We we know the thing they are obsessed with is max Karma. We know this because the void shows you the thing you want most, before you ascend or turn into an echo depending on if you wanted that thing too much. Saint wanted max karma too much, and now is doomed to be chained to max karma. But what does that actually mean? The echo that likes farm arrays can just look at farm arrays, obviously. But Saint? They are stuck infinitely getting and spreading max karma. Why can they move though? Well who said Echos can't move? Its just that sitting in your favorite spot and watching farm arrays doesn't leave much room for moving. Another echo is the egotistical one. Its stuck by where Ancient's memories of them were stored, thinking about his life forever. Saint however moves around so they can ascend other creatures and themselves get max karma. What about all the super weird shit in the campaign like depths and the iterator dialogue and stuff? Well the answer is none of the campaign is ***real***. Saint experiences it forever, sure, but its not playing out *in real life*. You can extend this reasoning and say that every echo is walking around doing something from their perspective, but that theory gets weird quick. So yea Saint is an echo, and echoes are trapped *forever*, which explains the iterator dialogue in the Rubicon. And again, neither moon nor FP actually said those things, its just what they *would* say.

[@android19willpwn]

@@cooly1234 or not

[@MadCodex]

​@@cooly1234 Saint improves their karma, ascends other creatures, most notably - iterators, goes to the depths, ascends a void worm, which causes them to lose all karma and return from the depths and repeat the cycle. Saint is not trapped in this cycle, but repeats it by choice - that's what makes them a saint.

[@zarnox3071]

​@@MadCodex So, they're partially an Echo, as they are "trapped", but it is voluntary on their part, making them not quite an Echo? Reminds me of a saying/quote "you can't know if you're obsessed unless you try to stop", and Saint doesn't want to try to stop.

[@piculra7441]

@@MadCodex I guess it's like a Buddha; someone who has escaped from a cycle ("samsara" in the case of Buddhism), but may choose to remain within it in order to help others escape. Particularly in Mahayana Buddhism, which emphasises "the wish and resolve to liberate all other sentient beings from saṃsāra" as necessary for becoming a Buddha. Certainly fits with the cycle in-game being one of gaining and then purging karma.

You are now an echo, but quite the unique kind. Free to wander, but doomed to remain. You cannot escape, but you can free everyone else.

[@coltonrivet3850]

@@astrylleaf htwo interpretation not confirmed by devs

[@stuckincollege1778]

This is just my interpretation. Saint gains the power to ascend other beings, even Iterators, pulling them out of the infinite loop and giving them their final cycle. When Saint is supposed to ascend, the Leviathan tries to ascend him, but Saint ascends the Leviathan and takes his role as the 'Ascender". However, since he is now the "Ascender" he has no one to ascend himself, so he has to live every cycle while ascending others, and he aims mainly for Iterators. At the end where it show the Iterator towers, but a lot less, implying Saint has lived many cycles and has successfully ascended most of the iterators. Saint is literally a mortal Grim Reaper, killing even immortals but never truly dying himself

[@ZacharyChua-of2so]

My headcanon (found this on a yt comment btw) on why Saint is trapped in a cycle and cannot ascend is that he is held back by a "secret" karma keeping him bound to life, being the urge to help others, or altruism. I think this fits really well thematically into the story of rain world because it demonstrates that the ancient civilization never ended up finding out the answer to the problem of eternal cycles because they were too selfish, too focused on their own gain, and ultimately too focused on their own ascension to realize that the solution to the problem was inherently going to be unable to ascend due to being held back by a secret earthly desire they never even realized existed. This shows that in the desperate seeking of true death, the ancients destroyed vast habitats and caused widespread ecological damage when their selfishness was the reason they never found their answer.

1. I assume you mean his music pearl? Nothing(but taking it makes him feel sad, so don't do it, got it?) 2. Pretty sure no additional new dialogue is added depending if you have reached Karma 10 or not, just whether it is your first, second, or third time visiting. (She does have a unique piece of dialog if you bring her Pebbles' music pearl though.) 3. We don't know. The path there collapsed some time before Rivulet's campaign, which happened before Saint. But don't worry, Slugcat Land will always exist in our hearts(inspirational speech). 4. You *can* ascend Pebbles and Moon. The 'empty' iterator can in Rubicon is meant for if you do, as they will appear there. You get unique dialog depending if you ascended only Pebbles, only Moon, or both. Hope this answers some questions.

LET'S GOOOO I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

[@anyafaith3759]

Since everyone is theorizing what The Saint is/what was going on in this campaign, I'll just give my two cents. I believe Saint is the Solution, the Triple Affirmative that Sliver of Straw sent out. They're portable and are clearly capable of "applying" an ascension. We've seen that iterators can mess with the biology of slug cats before for their own benefit (ie Spear Master), so I don't think it's a stretch to say that an iterator could turn a normal creature into the Solution. My bet is that Sliver of Straw made Saint and had them ascend her. From there Saint either escaped and ran off or was told by Sliver of Straw to go out and find the other iterators. Maybe this takes place so far in the future because Saint has made a loooot of, well, pit stops along the way.

Saint was born way after SoS died (devs confirmed it with challenge 70)

@@Haunted_Rug The devs have said challenges aren't canon I believe.
