Some people think Khaenriah worshiped a secret 8th Archon, others think Khaenriah was a nation of agnostics. But me? I think Khaenriah worshiped Cosmic Horrors.

Its amazing how one off-handed comment from a dying seelie can tell us SO MUCH about the true nature of elemental energy and what lurks within the abyss itself.
Spoilers: The truth is a bit stranger than fiction. Probably.

...We may or may not have misinterpreted some lines about Arlecchino...
This is a lot of crack. If it ACTUALLY turns out to be true Im going to end up questioning everything I know about this game LMAO
[update] - so there was a short animation released like 2 days after I made this that disproved about half of this. RIP short fun theory. You will be missed.

The Wuxia stuff I cant even find a good glossary for, I had to ask some friends and pull from what I knew from reading/watching stories of the genre to figure out what soul beast corrosion was referring to because it gets translated a lot of different ways.
If you happen upon a good glossary of Wuxia terms, please let me know!")
