0:00 the three moons of tavat or more accurately the three Moon sisters I always love it when ganshin releases little Snippets of new lore and it makes some of my older videos age well now what I mean to do in this video is just explain the context of these little shorts what the moons are who they are what they represent how they've been affected by the timeline of gin and tavat and where we're headed with nod cry in the future because the moons play a significant part in the past present and the future of tat and from everything we know now it's actually mapped out and makes perfect sense so I mean to break that all down for you but I got to say it's kind of nice to get some official lore on the moons I know
0:46 we had the simulan event right before Natan which did actually in hindsight shed a lot of light on the moons that event was way more goated than we realize but unless you davel really heavily with the lore with this game watch different creators or read every last book if you play this game in a very casual capacity and digest it here and there these trailers make little to no sense so allow me to shed some light on it for you we're going to be going over everything so let's break it down and let's keep it simple basically tat functions like this there were two civilizations of humanity the earliest civilization that took place under the primordial one in the four Shades that
1:31 prospered for many many years during this time Celestia was intact the dragon sovs were officially defeated and there was no major war or conflicts to speak of there were many angels and gods that resided within Celestia under the primordial one in the four Shades and that is where these three moons come into play there were collectively three Moon sisters Arya Sonet and Canon they were three very ancient gods that resided within a lunar Palace in Celestia and according to tavat and what we can see on the murals of the old civilizations they served as the three moons in the sky these three Moon sisters also went by three names which is revealed in these teasers iridescent
2:18 Moon the Eternal moon and the frost moon but it doesn't specify which sister lines up with which moon then it goes on to state that following a certain great C two sisters died and the corpse of only one of the sisters continues to illuminate the sky the game also goes on to state that the three Moon sisters would often switch places in riding their silver carriage or Chariot and these three Moon sisters were very close to each other it describes these Moon sisters as steering the primordial celestial sphere and wo love and passions Into the Heart of the world but have long since faded into the shadows of time yet those who follow the tides still sing and pray for a new moon is to
3:06 rise known as the sovereigns of the night sky riding in the heavens on their silver Carriage the sovereignty of the moon was held by one sister at a time and they would alternate between the three switching places but as we all know an ancient Calamity happened within Celestia what they're referring to is the war of Vengeance now I've talked in length in many many videos on this topic but to summarize long story short dragons ruled tavat until the primordial one came to tavat created the four Shades defeated the dragons then went on to create Celestia and mold the land to cater to humanity it's left ambiguous
3:51 whether Humanity was brought here from somewhere else or created here but since we know there's other Hoy verse games and even within genin there's a lot of other worlds and travelers descenders visitors Etc and because the word tavat stands for Ark I'm going to guess that humans were brought here and the primordial one was hiding or running from something the abyss the honkai again talked about this a lot but the point is neong who is the king of all the dragons left through the abyss in his defeat and humans would Thrive under the primordial one for many years to come but the Curiosity and arrogation of humanity would often question why they follow Celestia and the rules of the Gods started to feel like they were
4:37 prisoners within this world and wanted to control their own Fates this started to anger the primordial one and as you can see in most ancient civilizations they depict on muros these three moons lining up and it's no coincidence that both dynasties from cona are named after different lunar events a Crimson Moon and an eclipse the game even goes on to state that before the Calamity took place in the lunar Palace there was a union between aely ancestors so an angel of Celestia and a traveler from afar so somebody that traveled to tat and the moon sisters witnessed this Union or marriage and 30 days later the Calamity that overturned
5:23 the heavens and earth descended on the world This calamity refers to neong returning after his defeat bringing forbidden knowledge in the abyss and a great war in the heavens took place which shattered Celestia and the lands below destroyed and absolutely annihilated all the ancient civilizations tavat as we know it looked very different during these ancient times the civilization on Dragon spine sorami Island the suu desert didn't even exist at this time but once the Divine nails were cast to help menend the land of that deisal corruption it changed the very fabric of tat as we know it and this conflict is the very reason why many celes and Angels were banished to the land stripped of their human or physical forms like the cies we see
6:10 roaming around this could be divine punishment from the primordial one or it could be to save them from the now corrupted Celestia but this is the Calamity where the moons were destroyed it states that the great disaster overturned the sister's carriage and resan the Palace of the stars and then at this it goes on to state that the moon sisters turned on each other and killed each other and two sisters died one of their corpse can be seen to this day every single night in tavat there's a full moon but we know that there's a false Sky hiding what's really there and that is the first thing I thought of when I saw the false guy revealed the corpse of one of the Moon sisters but why would they turn on each other that is exactly what the abyss does it
6:58 doesn't just kill all life it corrupts you and turns you into the worst version of yourself like it did to the dragon Sovereign shuto when he burned the L lines in nlin it took Neal Long's resentment of the usurpers and Amplified his rage same with what it did to devalen and monstad when he started attacking the city that is what's so dangerous about the abyss even the most Celestial beings that can corrupt and turn them mad and this threw tavat out of whack and that's what they're talking about when the Eternal Moon fell the Earth was thrown into chaos when the iridescent Moon shattered the crimson Shadow sank into the Abyssal sea which to me is referring to the shattered moon in the
7:43 sky that we can see beyond the false sky and the Crimson Moon could be this crimson Shadow that sank into the abyss a power that conans would later try to harness through visitors from other worlds and giving conran unique abilities and curses like AR Lino who seems to be able to glitch within tavat and defy its fate there's a lot of correlations between the moons and the laws and fates of tavat when the frost Moon ceased to turn Nations faltered and fell into ruin the world no longer sheltered by eternity marches toward its final breath yet From the Ashes the new Moon Rises spinning the wheel of fate a new again with fate but also what is
8:29 this about eternity what is this about the world no longer being sheltered by eternity what does that mean well again like I talked about really recently actually with the abyss in Ry and Shogun you can see a darkened moon in her background in the plain of eia she is the god of Eternity so she is the closest to the Heavenly principles right the whole part of Eternity goes back to what I talked about earlier in the video why did the primordial one come here in the first place probably to escape the abyss the honkey the threats out there create this Ark this Bubble World a bubble world that could very well exist on the imaginary tree the very root of the Multiverse of the hooe different Bubble Worlds connected by different branches the imaginary tree in the sea of Quant the imaginary and the quantum
9:17 represent balance the tree existing within the Sea of quanta one always trying to consume the other and sometimes worlds fall off the branches of the imaginary tree and end up in the sea of quanta which we got a small Peak at when the all devouring narwhal a being that's not from tavat devoured us and we go to this weird plane now why am I telling you all this what does that have to do with the moons of tavat well that's what they mean by a world no longer sheltered by eternity tavat is supposed to be this isolated Bubble World tavat literally means Ark in Hebrew the point of tavat existing as it is is to protect itself and isolate itself from everything out there that is why there such strict rules of the Heavenly principles daving with
10:02 Forbidden Knowledge and technologies that are not from tavat opens the door of risking everything compromising this world clearly the primordial one created the four Shades the moon sisters all of the angels to govern over humanity and survive the primordial one could have slaughtered the dragons but didn't this was not a conquest this was finding a world for survival manol also functions like this as as well manol connects everyone's memories in the history of tavat while simultaneously connecting everyone that lives within tavat neurologically that is why you can tamper with manol and make people forget things the abyss almost compromised manol but thankfully Ruka Dada saved everyone in tavad and people don't even
10:48 remember what she did the greatest hero in tavad in my opinion but that is exactly why the abyss is such a threat warranting these very drastic measures and then you have the constellations the Stars like I talked about many times with the waypoints everyone's fate is connected in tavat all the characters in tavat their constellations make up the waypoints and people like Mona and her master barbal Luth of the hexen circle can read them think of tavat like a giant computer database everyone is integrated into it by the laws of the Heavenly principles with the exception of some people due to Powers over manipulating fate and conans cona daved with powers of the Moon probably
11:34 harnessing the power of dead Moon sisters Gods Argo you have the Crimson Moon Dynasty and the eclipse Dynasty and were able to create a nation that didn't need an Aron harnessing Powers beyond that the art of chya the five Sinners exceptional beings that exist like the captain and crazy Technologies like the giant ruin machines all of this jeopardizes the safety of tavat this Ark that they're on but Humanity views it differently they are being segregated trapped imprisoned and like humans always do they want to defy what's above them create their own Destinies and Fates and they are willing to davel and invite the abyss here just to do that
12:20 you see the humans and the dragons have a lot in common they want to Buck the system challenge the rule of the Heavenly principles even the old system civilizations started to do this before the Calamity took place but that is the significance of the moons the three moons of tavat are obviously very vital to the survival of tavat from what's out there hence eternity no longer shelters this world and the moons having strong connections over fate moons Sheltering the primordial celestial sphere the celestial sphere is the false sky this Bubble World the ark that is tavat this whole concept is even teased in honkai Star rail characters that live on a similar planet to tavat talk about the abyss in a way that you can travel
13:07 through and there are safe havens out there safe from the abyss tavat very well could have been one of them within the imaginary tree or the Sea of quanta but then the moon sisters fell during the Calamity that tore the heavens and the Earth aunder and this is where the ancient civilizations of tavat were eradicated with great floods the celestial nails and just the aftermath of a war of that magnitude it should also be noted too that in our own real world if somebody were to tamper with the moons it would cause crazy catastrophes on our own planet with the weather the ocean creating tsunamis it would decimate things so that is actually realistic to what would happen in our own Real World what happened in tavat to the old civilizations hence why
13:54 Inazuma was flooded now just a bunch of islands in Leo with the floods that they had they even had to create reservoirs to control some of the water and then had to try to find a way to contain the abyss after that great war in the heavens which is where the archons come into play beings that can collectively control over one part of tavat to make sure something like this never happens again and to prevent Humanity's curiosity from jeopardizing everyone's safety but we already know how that went with cona I even had a theory that the reason why conr need immortality and were cursed is because if their bodies are allowed to hit the dirt and Decay The Forbidden Knowledge and Corruption that really just plagues cona would
14:39 decimate the lelay lines and Argo manol but that is honestly just a theory as to why they need immortality at all costs which now brings us to nod cry and the fouille harbingers and their goals I've been saying for years now that the foui harbinger's endgame while collecting the nosis of the Third descender seemed to be wanting to create a man-made God or artificial God to challenge the fate and laws of the Heavenly principles seizing Authority from the gods and we know that dor already sent subordinates to investigate the false sky and the shattered Moon remains in natland nod cry being a very technologically advanced place within shniah dedicated to research and is where D's
15:25 headquarters are located and it's stated that the people of cry are able to use a special power that predates the seven elements of tavat and that is what's interesting we know that two moon sisters are dead but where is the third it states that there are statues of a moon deity present across nod cry which were made by the frost Moon Scions to me it seems like they got their hands on one of the moons or the moon sisters one of the three gesses the frost Moon sister to be exact but what could they be doing with the remains of the Moon well I think what they're going to do is do exactly what they did in sumeo with scat mooch but only turn somebody else into the new moon the next moon sister by using the remains of the old moon and
16:10 the remains of the third descender they obviously aim to challenge Celestia but in order to do that you need a being that can rival the Heavenly principles in status and strength and harness a power that defies fate which is exactly what the moons are hence why cona was able to defy everything that makes up tavat for so long who knows maybe we're hand delivering Pimon right to them and that is what they've been waiting for all along now deep down I still think Pon is the primordial one my gut just my gut thinks this and there's evidence to suggest that she is evidence to suggest that she isn't ultimately it just feels like that's what it is and we've already seen instances in this game where beings
16:57 had to expel energy to combat the abyss and Forbidden Knowledge and then that resulted in them being shrunken down in a weakened state that or maybe she is connected to the Moon sisters in some way since Pimon is clearly from Celestia that we've already known for a long time but how she connects to Celestia exactly well that remains to be seen at this point we can only speculate but regardless if I was going to try to seize Authority from the gods collecting the nois and seizing Divine Authority while harnessing the power of the moon is exactly how I would do it and I don't know about you but if there's one person in tat that can pull this off who has the gull the audacity the human arrogation to do this it is ilor a
17:45 person expelled from the Academia for having these types of Thoughts wanting to level the playing field between humans and gods we talked a lot in this video about how the moon connects to fate and if the fatou are trying trying to harness the power of the Moon then it goes perfectly along with the foreshadowing of the burning of herol something else that makes sense for the fatui to do if they're trying to Rebel seize Authority from the gods defy the laws of tavat even if it might Doom tavat in the long run honestly it's nice to just get some lore on the moons with tavat but I guess that's sort of the novelty too the game has been leaving these breadcrumbs for a long time looking at the murals now you look at it with a whole different perspective you
18:30 have a much better understanding now of what the ancient civilizations in tavat went through we also have a much bigger understanding why somebody like the Ryden Shogun clearly has PTSD and is afraid afraid of the Heavenly principles afraid of not upholding eternity afraid of what could happen and even the primordial one as omnipotent as that being is it really humanizes what they tried to do why they came to tavad in the first place a neong a being that basically said if I can't Ru tat nobody will an introduced the worst thing you could ever introduce to a planet in the Hoover verse the abyss in the black time something that's actually very sad is
19:16 the fact that the moon sisters along with all of the other angels and even the four shades are actually from tat they were created here for a purpose to guide Humanity like runov States it can be cumbersome work but that is our duty tavat was set up like this for a Reason by the he by the primordial one originally and all of the angels in Celestia seem to have really unique personalities some of them even being very loving and playful but the game also hints towards the Heavenly principles being upset at the Angels growing too close to humanity meant to guide and watch over them but not grow too close to them which is heavily speculated why the CES were even punished in the first place and the moon
20:02 sisters witnessing a marriage a union between an angel and an Outlander which upset the Heavenly principles even ranova was worried and feared the Wrath of the Heavenly principles after aiding shalan with matlin's rules of death and Resurrection all the angels in the four Shades created for a significant purpose to help the laws of tavat function and when the moons fell when they were killed shattered it threw the balance of tavat out a whack and this could very well be why a false guy needed to be placed preventing the corruption to spread but also stabilizing tavat now without its three moons and what makes it even more tragic is that the moon sisters seem to be very joyful beings yet they turned on
20:50 each other and killed each other as far as we know the abyss really truly is the greatest evil on honestly I picture the moon sisters a lot like Pimon just as very cute happy floaty beings and from what we can see from the welen Moon I think I'm probably right but I'm going to wrap the video up there let me know your thoughts in the comments now I have talked about this type of thing a lot before but I thought it would be good to talk about the moon sisters and what these trailers are actually saying the context behind it all because like I said if you don't really pay attention and haven't been really aggressive ly following the lore it would be very easy to not understand what it means so hopefully this helped with that I'm
21:35 excited to get to nod cry and see what's exactly going on let me know your thoughts in the comments like And subscribe if you'd like to see more content like this and as always we will see you all in the next one later [Music]
