[@MadBrainBox]

So happy I was directed to this channel.This is good stuff.

[@JMAssainatorz]

Just finished this in preperation for the twisted and the twilight dlc. Got to say that story was a lot deeper than i expected and gotta say i loved it!

[@Fenristhegreat]

Incredible work Sotek. You included so much detail, found so much wonderful art, and really managed to express the tragedy of Ariel's tale. Thanks for your hard work.

[@GPHr-bx8xi]

Awesome!! Can't wait to see the rest.

[@voiceofreason467]

Oh man, you can turn this all into a three movie LOTR type epic.

[@erzoul1]

so awsome man. listened half at work today and the other while playing my angrund campaign. thank you so much :) made me buy the wood elf DLC at last ^^ (use this comment in your resume with CA)

[@mycaleb8]

I'm leaving a comment. Just cuz. Keep making content Sotek! I need your Lore. You're the definitive Lore channel as far as I'm concerned. And this coming from an old and loyal Arch fan.

[@Sp00n15]

It would be cool to see some more of these sotek!!

[@vicentgalvan70]

This is absolutely fantastic. Thanks man.

[@havoc1134]

Relatively new to this world (better affiliated with 40k), I came across your channel through Arch Warhammer. I watched his video on the wood elves and was left hungry for a better understanding of their existence. Your video went above and beyond the call of duty, and I thank you for it.

[@robbibob6392]

This series is going to be amazing! :)

[@nastygoblin2706]

Thank you so much for yet another great lore video.

[@Alawatakima]

Love all this history man! :) Keep it up!

[@lorenheard2561]

Thank you for your work and enthusiasm, great story!

[@aaronkelsey8867]

Your content is amazing, I hope you continue to be the loremaster haha

[@vermin6958]

Took me a few days getting through it, but it was very well put and quite interesting. Great work :)

[@veljkozebeljan5181]

I wud love a Lizardmen lore vid that is this long and detaild

[@voxkoshka]

Hunted this down upon playing as them in the total war game for the afternoon. Thank you for the enhancements.

[@coldsteel2546]

I never knew that the Asri went to Naggaroth and all that, like was said before I never was to inretested in Wood Elf's until this video. But now wow ( no wonder Gilead was such a badass ). Great job on all of your videos I love them! Thank you for making them. I have searched for a Tyrion/ Teclis or High Elf video like this one and I can't find one. I would love to see one this detailed through into the End Times and everything. Thanks again for all you videos you are awesome! Cheers......

[@capefury8731]

This was really cool! I hope to see more vids soon :)

[@kullos4]

This is an great idea Loremaster! especially for those who must to know more about the world of Warhammer and the people who just starting out in the game

[@kullos4]

yeah I don't know what GS was thinking but fortunately we have folks like you try and save what lore you could

[@vampirevomit2414]

can't wait for the next part! thumbs up

[@dirt0133]

Another fantastic video, i feel like i'm attending a course on Warhammer Fantasy! :)

[@lalaninja006]

thank you for doing this

[@batguy7893]

Wood elves are badass and dangerous

[@codys3625]

Mah dude you are awesome. Thank you for the lore videos.

[@Wicked-ry1iy]

am just getting into warhammer lore and love your vid and thx for your work

[@Delthion]

Outstanding work bud.

[@pajurr9437]

That is an incredible and excellent video, merci beaucoup, thanks a loooot !

[@robertcapestany6019]

Fantasy is a way better setting than AoS. Thanks for these videos dude, even now you're bringing in new fans of the World that Was.

[@davidkichar755]

Great video man!!!

[@YTPremiumWatch]

This is awesome - feels like being gathered by a fire and learning about strange and fantastical tales :) perhaps before setting out on one of our own :)

[@Lore-94]

amazing video sir!

[@BVargas78]

A quality lore video.

[@hamarbiljungskile8953]

Fucking hell, mate, an hour-seventeen? Must've taken quite some time reading and compiling all this fluff, eh? Kudos.

[@starguy1o163]

The trees said "I hate you get out of my forrest"

[@brandonkirkbride7412]

Great Work! keep it up!

[@Lalle524]

Can't emagine the Dwarfs, a race of proud sturdy beings would just go "Fu** this sh** we're out" and leave the forest because a couple of pointy eared girls were constantly moving instead of just setting the forest ablaze.

[@Hjnii23A]

Yay I love the wood elves so much!

[@aaakitsune]

This was great. No need for music, more focused without it. :)

[@fakename7847]

For the algorithm, for the wood elves

[@Canuovea]

Fascinating. I was going to get Warhammer Total War already, despite my dislike of the Dawi, apathy towards the Empire, annoyance with the Greenskins, and uncertainty about the Vampire Counts. But if there is the chance this lot will show up, I will have something further to look forward to.

[@gr4692]

Love you man Will you do an army video for the races ????

[@connerrobertson4467]

Well done my man

[@zacharyfroeschl2315]

This is a really great video! Will you be covering more specific Treekin, like Durthu? I was wondering is that their specific race name?

[@sushanalone]

Nice i revisited contemplating a woodelf DLC

[@jackeilhigh]

This was amazing. Lovr the lore .

[@harvbegal6868]

Just started playing Heralds of Alariel. Figured I'd learn about these greenpeace-gone-wild elves.

[@Johnnythefirst]

Hey Loremaster, are you going to make any more of these type of videos? As in more about a race, less about a character? I find them very pleasant to listen to.

[@asura2545]

I love this

[@sethrepp7268]

Hope they put elves in the game soon.Still waiting for the dark elves to come in

[@leopoldjenkins]

that was excellent

[@AnotherVolvoxFan]

SHITE, you are a good narrator ... to eb fair, you have some great material to work with, but this is still great.

[@Briggsyy55]

Awesome!!!!!!!

[@aceofhearts573]

In the new Warhammer total war 2 dlc you can use the twin sisters! Yes

[@thegeneral713]

wheres the rest of the videos?

[@GruwskiTheDogski]

Fantastic video! I still got my old wood elves 4th edtion rule book. Love their lore! Well made Sotek! :) Quick question. Is Morghur blessed by nurgle? Since he can be restored again and again ?

[@GruwskiTheDogski]

***** Ahh that makes more sense! :) But why does Morghur want Ariel? is it because she is in fact the embodiment of nature? "aka life" I know i'm asking a lot of question further more but i've never really known anything about the woodelves lore in warhammer, i'am just curious because the lore seem very rich and I love the fact that their realm is somewhat a chaos realm.

[@GruwskiTheDogski]

***** Cool! Thank you for the answers! :)

[@ronnie5340]

Cool!

[@annamosier1950]

very good

[@TheNorbyAKANorbz]

This is just grand

[@pongtheboy839]

I'd love to play D&D with this dude thanks a lot for the upload you rule if I ever win the lottery I'm going to hire you to read to me :p

[@davidarobertsfilm]

Is the story of ariel going mad in the orion novels or somewhere else? Love to read about it

[@diobrando6177]

When will you do skaven?

[@shogun242424]

I came here because a friend (not KZbin) recommended your channel. I like what you do so far (30 min in). You read very well. However, the sound/microphone could get a little improvement imho. Cheers !

[@annamosier1950]

a legend is often true

[@chubbyninja89]

Hey dude. I thought this video was pretty good, but especially can't wait for your Dwarf and Greenskins videos. But I had t tiny request I wanted to make of you, if that's ok.

[@chubbyninja89]

That's ok. Well the request I wanted to ask of you may sound like a little odd one from a Warhammer fan. But could you possibly do a video or two on the lesser factions like Tilea and such and how they may or may not play out in Total War: Warhammer? I just think that even if they're mostly human nations, the lesser factions in Warhammer could be a lot of fun in a TW game. Here's a link to one discussion I started steamcommunity.com/app/364360/discussions/0/451852571439715420/ It's about Cathay. Look for a comment by a Reverend Belial and Ysthrall, they actually brought some really interesting stuff up. Sorry it's such a long comment.

[@deadeye9439]

Did... Did the ogres got "Bill Cosbey'd" themselves into a deal with the wood elves?

[@KnjazNazrath]

Sylvaneth/Wanderers lore video when?

[@aidanniles1788]

Can u do the lore of Tyrion of Ulthuan

[@Andersp90]

So much better than Arch's. Thx! :)

[@asura2545]

I think they are both amazing. each of them has a different style. but these a way more detailed. I like that.

[@conradmueller3458]

please do more ork stuff

[@03lvazgau]

amazing video!!!!!! thanks obama

[@WuHeDo]

Now i may be wrong but I can't make sense of this: They sacrifice a " prince " each year for Orion to be born.. that means 1 dies each year. And if i am not mistaken Elves don't make that many babies as often as humans and other races.. First: Is every wood elf a prince / princess ? Second: How aint their society dead yet, with low birth rate and all? I do take into account that in Warhammer there is war and elves die.. Humans grow up fast and reproduce like rats compared to elves. So it just dosen't make sense that they sacrifice 1 elf each year. The wood elves would be dead by default, low birthrate etc ? Or am i wrong?

[@WhirlwindHeatAndFlash]

What happened in this video? The mic quality / room resonance is super strong - all the other vids dont have this issue o.O

[@Ankhakaru]

I always wonder what commonalities the queen of the wood & the ever queen of Ulthuan share if their are any...

[@1486345]

Someone may have already commented this, but the word bough is pronounced the same way as "bow" in "bow in respect" not "bow" like "bow and arrow". Otherwise great video on my second favorite race.

[@dziwnalata9271]

sad that there is nothing for other nations... Great work!

[@Lin.Do.n]

For the algorithm

[@annamosier1950]

seems real

[@misterbeans3590]

They are my favourite factiohn

[@rogaldorn2109]

Notice me SENPAI

[@FrozenLord66]

I want be a wood elf so much living with the forest and word ship the wood elves gods

[@c.b.4916]

Classic sotek. 56000 views. Wooof. Get emmm

[@WurrzagsMorkyMischeif]

All i know them as is the assholes in warhammer total war that keep telling me about how they don't care about the outside world and only wish to survive within their own borders before burning down Nuln, Karak Izor and Parravon for the 20th time

[@djomlazz5]

This was pretty good. Don't care about music so just keep it coming !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@theDuke0001]

cant wait for the other races ^^

[@wolfsbanealphas617]

Didn't Malekith marry a wood elve

[@PCveteran117]

Ddid I sense a Matt Ward taint?

[@tsephanyael1969]

[@Turnil321]

wait elfs are bad?

[@Turnil321]

+Bart Broekhuizen sure dark elfs is kind of clear. but the hippie's?

[@andrewlewis3765]

Loremaster_of_Sotek was slowly dieing. after all, the end times have been written

[@tonauac784]

These elves sound like native Americans

[@lovejesuschristlovejesus3398]

Elves can't fight a bunch of little ugly people who don't know how to shave? I hate dwarves.

[@sniperkitty3000xx]
