WARFRAME | Albrecht Entrati, the Man and the Wall

I thought it was time to take a deeper look into the life of Albrecht Entrati, arguably the most important character in the warframe universe. For all you Tenno out there, a lot of this applies to you so... you should watch this.

A quick note... when talking about the door in the video, the idea was that the door has been left open when it appears that Entrati wanted to CLOSE IT, which I believe he meant for good, not just in the moment, something clearly euleria did not do, given what she talks about during the heart of deimos. So the door has been left wide open. But... let me stress that there is no passage CONFIRMING the door was closed to supposedly cut off the man in the wall's fingers and further... the only person who we can definitively say was injured, especially in their arm, was entrati. So the thing to ponder is... if the "other" escaped as Entrati theorized, is it not possible those fingers belonged to him and their metamorphosis after void exposure and how it interacted with real world material, Human fingers (or more) was how void technologies were actually developed, maybe by an entity that already knew how it all worked? FOOD FOR THOUGHT!

[@redwolf4611]

It's mentioned in game that wally lost his finger. Dr. Entrati wasn't sure if he'd escaped or if his Doppelganger did. Something that in fact confirms Dr. Entrati was the one that escaped. His Doppelganger wouldn't have had those doubts. As mentioned by someone else. At the end of new war wally is in fact missing a finger.

[@joshecdiaz8741]

Others probably pointed it out, but its no coincidence that Oull's requiem symbol begins changing only after its initial form is an eye. It needs to look at your enemies's selves to fully become them as a person and strike at them the same way it struck Entrati.

[@erricro3198]

It could be that the old Orokin used kuva, only understanding what it could do for them, extending their life and allowing for continuity, without fully understanding "how" it works.

[@Voldrim359]

Kuva allows them to transfer their minds to another body, just like a suit, flesh was their clothes

[@MageSkeleton]

And our only use for it is to renew random stats among a pool of stats in certain mods that only work with specific weapons... And very few things actually require it as a resource to build. Why do weapons use kuva as a building component?

[@ML7WL]

@@Voldrim359 Yes, but HOW? I always viewed kuva like the philosopher's stone from fulmetall alchemist mixed with the en sabah nur method of body transference in x men: apocalypse movie. Technology, to be more precise: eons advanced nanotechnology, that deterministically recreate the owner "blueprint" in another compatible body (except the new body does not changes externally), with the caveat that the host consciousness is supressed and imprisoned like the philosopher's stone (that's why I thought the kuva clouds "screamed" in the siphon missions). So Orokin had it way before Entrati. But voruna's lore + duviri's lessons kinda shattered this, it seems kuva is way more "mystic" and less "scientific". And it seems it started BEFORE Entrati.

[@ML7WL]

@erricro3198 Voruna's lore indicates that atleast the high orokin (or just Tuvul) knew about some part of the "how" perhaps?

[@Voldrim359]

@@ML7WL we don't know... I know that's how Kuva works. That's why in the lore, when the beast of bones killed a few orokins and everyone laugh because it was like nothing and they just come back, that's before Ballas transformed the beast of bones into Ordis. I know this too, the Entrati family was also orokin, included Albretch. Now for my guess, how they do it? I guess they create the bodies like Grandmother's story, like, there is machine that helps them and all too and she just destroyed that with their bodies, impending some orokin to change bodies again. Now after i understood that, i can guess the fear of the orokin for the Tenno using the transference

[@miel307]

What if Entrati did shake the hand when he went into the void? Making a deal with Wally just like we did? He maybe shook the hand wanting to survive and therefore also gaining the knowledge to build the new technology?

[@ZenithGaming9]

You're onto something.

[@Guirko]

You're right, a split in possibility similar to the operator and drifter. He made the deal and was saved, and another version of him was not.

[@Proquu]

It makes sense. This could possibly explain why one of him ended up in Duviri and the other one returned to the real world. Also it gives new meaning to his words: "was it I who escaped, or the other?" which may refer not to Man in the Wall but the version of him who made the deal

[@MageSkeleton]

From what i'm understanding, he did not touch the doppelganger. Which possibly means there are countless versions of him because he didn't.

im glad albrecht is finally getting more attention (both ingame and within the community). ive always thought that he was the most important addition to warframe's lore but a lot of people were unaware of/havent listened to the albrecht lore tablets in deimos. he's one of my favorite characters even though he's had barely any screentime so far always love your videos, glad you're back!

Maybe the entrati we see in the 1999 trail is like that of the drifter a version of him from another timeline where he ended up taking the hand of the man in the wall instead of running from it

[@FrankAllotta]

Theory: When Loid hits the casket with the hammer he is not sealing him in there. Look at the hammer. What does it look like? IMO it looks like some sort of compact version of the cosmic clock. And we know hammers in Warframe have abilities. For example, the Synoid Heliocore can scan things, award kavat codes, and even create a specter of an enemy. What if that hammer sends Entrati back in time. To 1999. Just before Arthur shows up.

[@r4yker442]

Either the hammer or coffin is made out of Seriglass - do note the broken glass sound when it cuts to black. Going further with your theory, Albrecht always feared "which one of him - Albrecht or Man in the Wall" escaped/got out of the Void. Maybe he went back in time, but the wrong Albrecht reached the final destination.

[@FrankAllotta]

@@r4yker442 I think I also have a theory about who Arthur is. Drawing parallels to Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. I think the man in the wall corrupts Arthur and he becomes the Stalker. And maybe the Mag noise we hear in the background isn't actually Mag but a corrupted version that is now an Acolyte. AKA The Stalker and his Acolytes.

[@zaneinsane9578]

This is making extreme sense to me, as it would virtually explain everything, how he was able to invent everything so easily, because he invented it seemingly infinite times...meaning he is in an infinite time loop trying to do something, it would also explain the Scholar in Duviri already having had the lab before.@@r4yker442

Something I always noted was that a couple of the Holdfasts (being resurrected by the Void) have seen copies of themselves in the Reliquary Drive. Yonta says she doesn't like being in there because she swears she "saw herself grinning" out of the corner of her eye Edit: It's also interesting that the living Albrecht seems to be a normal human, while the painting and description of the Scholar seem to be a full-blown blue Orokin body.

[@Koranthus]

My theory was that since he was basically eviscerated and blinded during his first meeting with the Man in the Wall, that they performed continuity on him shortly after, either to heal him or because he was mutilated so badly that he couldn't function well (not sure how advanced their healing methods were during Orokin era pre-voidtech) and he didn't bother modifying his new body because he was slowly growing suspicious of himself.

[@beefymario88]

@@KoranthusHim taking his time modifying his body makes sense when you take into account that the only thing “Orokin” about his new look is his golden fingernails.

[@ethankincaid6838]

I like to think that maybe the void wasn't evil and chaotic until entrati fell into it unshielded. Perhaps it took on its current form because of his emotional state and it was some neutral alternate space before. It would truly make him the father of the void

[@GhostlyPancakeTheOddMancake]

I think we can apply to "Man in the Wall" something more literal. Mind you, the seriglass bell crashed into the "wall" in the portal before shattering. That may be the moment of importance in this story. This physical contact with the walls of the void Entrati perceived may be the very wall he's trapped in. This would also fall into place of the idea that he is both him and the other, the shrodinger of personal existence really. As for Oull, you nailed that one right on the head for me. I was ready to type a theory out but had to be patient because I knew you'd cover it you clever bastard. I have a firm belief that Oull is a requiem that was developed far past the others as a sort of key to bypass the original eight. Of course, only one soul would have that knowledge, and that same soul just so happens to be possibly both himself and the other.

[@vincentrei4446]

Here's a theory I just came up with regarding the Railjack reliquary drives. Canonically there have been multiple Railjacks as it has been referenced in the Old War, however the way they were powered is confusing, as it was heavily hinted the finger in the drive is the one missing from Albrecht's other, but only one was cut off. It is my theory the other fingers came from versions of Albrecht in other parallel timelines that were collapsed during the Tenno's deal. Considering the nature of Eternalism, there are, or rather were infinite parallel timelines that fractured with every single choice. With that, Albrecht's encounter with the Void is canon in a significant number of them, confirmed by the fact that during the deal several other Tenno wearing Zariman suits are killed (if Albrecht didn't encounter his other, there wouldn't have been Void travel and therefore the Zariman). The collapsed timelines therefore each had a finger, one that Wally could have taken and later given to the Operator timeline. As I'm writing this however, I'm starting to believe that we or someone else will have to make another deal so Wally's plan could come to fruition. Even though the timelines were reduced from infinite to two during the Zariman deal, the rules of Eternalism hadn't changed, and the timelines would have continued splitting after that point. Imagine a tree with an absurd number of branches, and cutting off all of them but one. The branch left would continue growing and branching off itself. If Wally wants just one fruit off that tree, he will have to cut the branches again

[@beefymario88]

I just assumed that the Orokin cloned the finger like they do the Grineer. 🤷

[@fluffywolfo3663]

26:44 Well, I think it's many fingers that are all the same finger. Sort of a quantum mechanics thing. Each reliquary drive holds, or is _connected_ to the _same_ finger(s).

Drawing energy from the void, the Orokin could create """new""" matter for materials which would have been needed after the failure of the Zariman.

[@redwolf4611]

Yes and no. He doesn't require humanity to live. He's the void itself. Hence his name "the indifference". There is a theory though. That the man in the wall is a manifestation of Albert entrati's fear of the void. The theory is pretty solid because as explained in angels of zariman. When void energy meets intense emotion, it makes something. Hence all the strange statuesque manifestations sticking out of he walls on the zariman. Manifestations of the chaos and madness that took place there.

[@ScorchedIce]

Speculation ahead: Since you mentioned the possibility of Albrecht and us being in a position of "There's the original person, and the void entity in one body" It makes me wonder how does the Drifter fit into that? Remember how the scholar in Duviri said that there would come a time when Duviri would be needed? Perhaps the Drifter is what he referred to. The time could either be in the future, or it could be referring to the time when the Drifter's finally attains control over their powers (Thanks to the events that happen during New War, and Natah's hand) and escapes from from Duviri. And all of this is big hypothesis time and very much speculation of course. Maybe what Albrecht hopes for, is that this "person", ie:. us, the player, who is essentially (thanks to the void jump accident), two people, can both work together against the third entity in the mix, Wally? Perhaps he realized at some point that he couldn't fight The Man in The Wall by himself, and could never do it... so he made plans for us to eventually figure it out and combat Wally. Also, a bit of a tangent: I also wonder how the heck Vessels fit into all this. I wonder if they have anything to do with 1999 at all? What if they're literally "vessels", like ships, and are meant for us to traverse the raw void itself? Perhaps they are what's meant to let us traverse time and dimensions to eventually reach other universes, like that of 1999? I know Railjacks and possibly most Orokin vessels are capable of void jumps to move around, but maybe Vessels are special in that they let someone either visit or see other realities and or times? That last part is just a big "whoa dude imagine" moment from me, just a thought c:

[@maximumpotato2505]

Its worth noting that in the Tennocon Demo, the Coffin Albrecht stepped into is still visible on the later part of the demo where the tenno teleports back into the lab, and the coffin is visibly dented, so he or atleast his body is possibly still there

[@tellmeninetails5819]

You have to remember that it's not impossible to build in the void. We've had orokin towers for a long time so I don't think it's strange to have the lab being built there. I just wonder why the outside of the orokin towers look so different from the outside of the lab.

[@TheDsIEGE]

I'm not saying it is, I'm just saying there's A LOT of it in there that apparently looks exactly like HIS home.

[@STUVash]

I was sending the link to the Tennocon 2023 to a friend that didn't watch it yet and I began watching it again. Something I found curious was how Loid talked: "Ah. The 'helpful' Necraloid my Albrecht had made" I didn't register before that he says "My Albrecht" rather than simply "Albrecht" or "Master Albrecht". He is most likely aware of alot of things but more so the "Kalymos Sequence" and the fact there are multiple Albrechts. Either that or he's just way too emotional about Albrecht, which he is but I'd prefer to believe he is aware of the Man in the Wall too.

[@IxodesPersulcatus]

I think it's worth consideration that at the time of the recording, Albrecht has barely any accent of note. There is a character in Duviri, however, with an inexplicably very thick germanic accent. The Prisoner. He rather conspicuously lacks a mask, however there is a masked counterpart of him (sharing the same model) clad in all black, who occasionally appears in hidden places, tapping on walls and cackling maniacally. Sound familiar? While I don't think he is *the* Albrecht Entrati, he could be a sort of snapshot of him, the same way Kullervo's jailor is a snapshot of Ballas. This would then place his visit to Duviri to much earlier in his life than the last recording.

[@aghori8060]

Ive noticed the number 9 keeps showing up in warframe recently, might be looking into it too far but DE is know for there details: •Zaramin countdown from 10-2 before the accident •There are 9 requiem mods •There are 9 lore segments in duviri (which seem to follow the lore) •wally has 9 attached fingers (looks like he has 2 sets of hands on the wall, but its him as the vitruvian Man, which is just 2 positions of hands?) •And warframe 1999 being released soon. And in basic numerology the number 9 represents completion but not the end (almost turning a page), which if done intentionally is genius for DE because the 10th year anniversary happened it seems to be a page being turned for warframe story.

A thought occurs if i remember correctly the Orokin had an obsession with biological technologies. One being in in relation to immortality the other could be in relation to access to the void.

Albrecht maybe wasn’t close to death but that “spilling blood and stomach” might just be bleeding and vomiting. Not sure how much that changes tho lol

[@TheDsIEGE]

Well it doesn't sound fun, I'll tell you that much...

[@Apstergo]

What if the same thing that happened to Albercht happened to the lotus in the ending of the new war??? Her hand was smoking that same way.

[@ZenithGaming9]

She definitely shook a hand with Wally. It was revealed in The New War.

[@godzelda123]

@@ZenithGaming9 Maybe that's when she got her hand back after it was chopped off?

[@sandhanditizer8839]

I would love to see like a 3 minute short. Of the entire experiment in real time. Like the sheer horror of a scientist knowing he's about to open the most terrifying door in existence while everyone looks on.

[@Kheshire_Tokyo]

Amazing video 😮

[@johnfiggy]

You touched on it briefly here but listening to this got me thinking what if the man in the wall is the person playing the game and entrati broke the 4th wall at some point and ventured into our world and then got stuck here so from a prespective he is stuck behind the wall. I doubt they would take such an approach for something so heavily involved in the lore but it was just a thought that I had

[@dr.tursko2312]

I need a tutorial how to make yourself sound like the man in the wall like you did towards the end of the video. It’s so good!

[@lmonster3146]

I find it interesting that Entrati consistently refers to kuva in his word choices and references. I wonder if Kuva was first discovered before the radiation wars. This could mean the existence of Kuva could have inspired Entrati to further research the void.

[@corvenraine6301]

Here I come back after whispers in the walls and so I listened and looked, they were and are.

[@KaceyHowl]

God's l love this game. Thanks for the lore videos dude!

[@unzkipriime4283]

awesome video, subbed :)

[@rajpalsinghdoad]

The ending of the video with oul is amazing. The quest comes out tomorrow and i can wait to play it and see what things really are.

[@nirablackfire2792]

Good God, Warframe is the most interesting and also the most frustrating game i've ever played in terms of understanding what the everloving hell is actually going on. Props to DE for managing to make a game who's lore isn't a rabbit hole- instead, it's a whole damn warren. Warframe has moved into Across the Spider-verse territory and I am terrified but also so excited to see what happens next. It's also so mindblowing to me that as we move further into the stroyline, it becomes clear that Wally is pretty much THE big bad guy of Warframe, and that every major plot point in this game can all be traced back to Albrecht, his research, and that damn encounter. He is the one figure responsible, directly or indirectly, for almost... *everything.* The sheer weight of that alone is impressive in a game that has taken years to get to this point. -I could be the only one who's slightly simping over '99 Albrecht, and I'm okay with that.-

[@sn5301679]

Been a while i didnt return to Warframe and this channel.

[@deathgun2792]

nice work

[@-GrimSoulz-]

I cant wait for this update

[@SocraTetris]

I loved this

[@Elem156]

DE should nominated you as a narator for story telling. Well done!

[@TheDsIEGE]

Thank you! I'd love that job!!!

[@FernandoOpus-xn8jl]

I just love albrecht design lol, its so stylish

[@GrimmWF]

so there is something people havent noticed about those requiem logs he left for us. each of them contains orokin text except ris. when i first started to translate them i thought ok this has errors in it as fass read pass and vome read homm, but when i changed the order of the words based on the order albreacht reads the requiem mods descripitions in the lohk entry i got this " LOHK LOHK ZHATEA JAHOO HOMM (blank) PASS VPLT 1 MDL L VPLT 2 KRA." khras entry itself containing the period of end of sentence symbol. if you change the requiem words in this message to albreachts said meanings for those words you get "VOID VOID TRUTH FORM HOMM (blank) PASS VPLT 1 MDL L VPLT 2 TIME." i think homm is home in this instant. which is albreacht directly telling us he was the real him to passed back through the portal and that we need to pass VPLT 1 MDL L VPLT 2 time, which could be about the fact that the cosmic clock destroys to unlock the labs

[@UglyDragons]

Amazing you've been right on the credits bro. Do you ever notice that when the man in the wall starts to sound malicious he or she sounds like our drifter a little?

[@TheDsIEGE]

Thank you and... well, he sounds like whoever he wants to. He's gathering an army you understand...

[@UglyDragons]

​@@TheDsIEGEI wonder what against if we are the most feared.

[@EmceeJoseph]

I like marble-Wally's eye slits to be a little reference to Quantum craziness.

[@dreamlessking9]

I just want to say, you're awesome.

[@TheDsIEGE]

Well, hey... Thank you! That's really nice!

[@Minecraftassassin-re6og]

I'm really looking forward to finding out the lore behind him (as for someone who loves studying the lore behind everything) and Loid

[@LolSho0orTs]

Thank you SIEGE Priceless work, I would love if you made a recap of all the story. or maybe after the new quest. Also why DE don't make a movie or a series about the lore I would love to watch that.

[@TheDsIEGE]

Both of those things are on the agenda, but... together. Everyone does regular lore videos. when I get into actual quest recaps, They are most likely going to have some acting in them to spice things up!

[@evaneb6264]

These lore videos always make me question an ponder the warframe lore itself more deeply

[@TheDsIEGE]

That's why I do it! I love when people actually get into the stories. This is really interesting world Warframe has built!

[@evaneb6264]

Tho do wish DE gave us more lore as most of what we have is based on what we think fits into the lore we have. Like maybe Albrecht when crossed back over didn't trully return as could have been a parallel world.@@TheDsIEGE

[@bigeststarspark]

woo awesome info

[@cofe436]

i cant believe i didnt see the name connection between albrect entrati and albert einstien thats so cool

[@DPD232]

Something I find interesting is how Daughter has the specific Orokin look, which is long arms and blue skin but Albercht doesn't. And the 'truth' ballas preaches, with his deacons, seem oddly familiar to how we see Albercht dressed like

[@ThePopeOfAwesomeness]

This is how we get the MIGHTY SEER

[@parisp7502]

the one missing finger from the man in the wall, and the amount of fingers we hear of/see, it reminds me of the situation in adventure time where they cut off the lich's hand and it falls into the multiverse and multiplies to match the number of timelines and universes.

[@yosefarmour1002]

i love this voice so much

[@arumbaya33]

This is a lore masterpiece =)

[@TheDsIEGE]

Hey Thank you!!!

[@neodruidic5539]

​fucking spot on i love it

[@TheDsIEGE]

I'm glad thank you!!!

[@ofc1325]

Hey @TheDsIEGE awesome video, one thing i've been meaning to ask is what do you think those giant constructs are? the ones that Albrecht - according to flesh and blood Loid - started but never finished, what purpouse could they serve? Obviously we will find out more in December once the patch drops I'm just curious what your thoughts on them are Maybe it's gonna be a necramech thing where we use them but what would we be fighting with such a giant construct? is it pacific rim-like robot vs wally smackdown?

[@ML7WL]

It would be a lore's "table flip" if the golden age of the orokin empire spacefaring had been planned all this long time. I mean, it is very easy to lose sense of scale in the lore of this game; in "the ties that bind" Darvo, just Darvo, said he is close to 105 years old...I know it is old lore like the "oro" stuff in the conclave, but it puts into perspective a bunch of things.

[@christopherwatsonzeledon6187]

as much as im aware of, the door did close after entrati was able to escape. But it was at the moment when the man in the wall was crossing the finger through the portal. Probably the orokin were able to repllicate it, somehow, thats why we see so many fingers around haha.

[@PIlotZero0]

Wow....That is...wow. This whole video make me rethink my concept of Albrecht. I'm currently working on story with elements from Warframe and I wanted to make him an antagonist. Now? Now I may make him a broken man who is willing to do whatever the cost to stop The Indeference.

[@jasons9663]

The multiple fingers despite the man in the wall only missing one finger is because there are infinite timelines in which the finger is severed, so entrati was able to harvest as many as he wanted.

[@zestyaardvarks]

This gets me thinking about the Requiem mods and how we use them to kill Liches/Sisters. I could be way off but it seems like the Requiem words, and by extension Void Tongue, hold a power great enough to disrupt and cut off Continuity and whatever other crazy things Kuva does.

[@EpslionBear]

Kuva is void powered, the requiem words might be like a counter frequency nullifying or drowning out the continuity. Like the lich is saying I. AM. IMMORTAL. And the words spell YOU. ARE. NOT.

[@valdorosado1986]

Love the video omg so many questions after this video but I have a question would you ever do a stalker lore video ?? An umbra?

[@TheDsIEGE]

I actually did one a while back although I'll probably have to update it... And soon I'll be doing a deep dive on Sacrifice so in that we'll get into umbra.

[@valdorosado1986]

Yes pls I love umbra an I wana know more about him an stalker I was looking an I couldn’t find it

[@livingalife8879]

His thoughts before the bell breaking could be an interesting link to how and why the void manifested the way it did

[@TheDsIEGE]

Definitely leads right to the man in the wall's current behavior no doubt.

[@LocksLifeLove]

The void or 'indifference' has always been with us. Exposure to the void allows that indifference to manifest. It seemingly takes control at will but I would say that the doppelganger is not really another us but us seeing ourselves in a sort of out of body experience. One other thing that I've noticed but maybe it's just me. I've never had a 'hey kiddo' moment while I was walking around the ship as the tenno. I've even tried to transfer back into the tenno to see if I could come face to face with myself but I've never gotten there and seen the man in wall ... EVER. Now THAT is food for thought.

[@TheDsIEGE]

check out the youtube short I posted, I think you'll find that very interesting.

[@frenzy-r12]

It's one thing that got me curious about... What about Parvos? And the place he lives in that got him to live long.

[@TheDsIEGE]

That's a really good question.

[@FyberOptyk]

Albrecht sound and the way he speaks sounds almost identical to the narrator in Darkest Dungeon

[@filanfyretracker]

Radiation Wars could also hint at not straight up nuclear war as we think of it but instead Neutron Bombs or salted nuclear weapons. Looking at what Arthur is shooting at in 1999 its possible someone proposed trying neutron bombs on them. the idea being the machine part being unable to function without the meat which would be killed by the neutron bomb in theory. Salted bombs are straight up nuclear weapons designed for increased fallout to irradiate wide areas to deny them.

[@ArtoriasGaming0516]

There was a thing back in the 90s when people said the Sun would cause a storm and affect all technology, i don't remember correctly because i was born in the 2000s. Maybe Warframe 1999 is a universe where that happened, but infinitely worse

[@Raffferr]

Kinda cool how xakus third switch abilities between his 3 are named Gaze, Accuse, and Deny.
