!Spoiler for Relics of the Old Faith!

So After The Update, If You Choose To Kill Narinder After His Boss Fight...

??? will still give him to you as part of the reward after freeing the Bishops.

certified trophy wife moment

One important thing to notice is that this Narinder does NOT have the "immortal" trait like his counterpart which you spare after the boss fight.

This could just be a glitch, but if it's not, it may imply that Lamb is able to strip away other gods' immortality through bringing death to them, and if we choose to spare Narinder, he has never actually died and thus is able to keep his immortality.

So my theory? The Bishops were originally immortal too, just like TOWW, until they were slain by us.

COTL RELICS of The Old Faith

Narinder's Robes spoilers

Once you've beaten all the bishops the ??? entity will gives you THE ONE WHO WAITS trophy statue AND the God Of Death fleece!

Do you know what that means!

This right here is specifically the raiments of the God of Death AND Narinder wore it before and after leaving the Bishops of the old Faith! I spent so much time trying to figure out why Narinder's robes looked so different from his siblings only to find out those are just the clothes of his station. I am elated and scandalized. Still doesn't explain WHY his robes are so different from his siblings but the duty of death God may have been a different sect of the Old Faith.

Also why doesn't he wear it with the hood up more often?

It looks spoopy I like it!

So I haven’t finished playing through the Relics of the Old Faith update yet, but I do find the concept of bringing back the Bishops of the old Faith as new followers to be a very interesting proposition to give to Azmontes

New RELICS OF THE OLD FAITH

Dialogue from Aym and Baal + Narinder

Spoilers below.

BAAL

Master! Aym? What is this place?"

"So much color... so many creatures..."

"...master?"

My thoughts

The first thing he does is call out to TOWW and Aym and that makes me so soft🥺. But his next line is an eye opener for me. "So much color.." Has he has never been outside of the the Gateway?! I know the twins were given to TOWW as children but it never clicked that they WOULDN'T remember their time on the surface. "So many creatures..." Same as before the twins don't remember their time on the surface. It's only been the twins and TOWW for a very long time. It's a wonder they remember Forneus at all...

AYM

"Back! Stay back! I will slice your belly open! I will cut that crown from your head!" "What foul place is this? Moments ago I was... I was..."

My thoughts

This man went full "get back you savages" lmao. Also way more violent than his brother, then again it seems as though Aym was reliving his final moments whereas his brother was not. "What foul place is this?" Rude Aym that's our temple. He seems less disoriented by the new scenery and more of the sudden change of location. "Moments ago I was... I was..."

Narinder

"Hmf. Baal and Aym? I did not take them. They were given."

Um! WHAT! My guy you cannot be dropping lore pearls all willy nilly! So it WAS his followers or, someone, who went to Forneus to take her kits!

"Intended as keepers, perhaps, but they were young and in need of guidance. Must I be blamed for my influence?"

Why would TOWW think these children were meant to be his keepers? A keeper is "a person who manages or looks after something or someone." If anything TOWW was meant to be THEIR keeper. I have noticed that TOWW really dislikes being made to feel responsible for things he did not want nor ask for. He says something similar after he is defeated. He doesn't seem to grasp that his actions and inactions have an effect on others. Even though he doesn't want them to. (A man/cat/god after my own heart...)

"Salvaged from the void, they are yours now. Do what you wish, scornful God. I care not for them."

Really Narinder? His earlier statement makes it seem a through he begrudgingly decided to become a sort of teacher/mentor to the twins but NOW it's whatever. This man is so tsudere it's frustrating. Or he genuinely CANNOT form emotional connections to people which may explain his actions....

Questions...?

The thing about Aym and Baal is how did they end up where they were. Their revival is completely unlike the resurrection ritual and is the reverse of the sacrifice ritual. It appears as though the twins were sacrificed and we trade two of our followers to take their place. It makes you wonder: where do the sacrifices go? Because we never see any in the gateway, TOWW only ever references them as having been done in his honor. Their souls go somewhere else and not to him.

Conclusion

While I am happy we get the resolution of Forneus reuniting with her sons, i sorta wish there was more 'substance' to it, ya know. From what I can find there are no interactions between the twins with TOWW or the Lamb. We never learn anything about them. Even with the new content.

[faery-the-diamond]

This is basically how the first interaction with this void-headed creature went, right?

I love Chemach

So, it's not public knowledge but I beat the DLC in like a day, took 16 hours of near nonstop play BUT I ADORED IT and wanted to sketch out a few of the new characters and a kinda fucked up Shamura. Enjoy!!
