yall are going to get the clickbait of a century because aster wants to make an scp reference. i refuse to bend
he sounds very much like raiden shogun. overcome by grief from the death of a loved one, hardened her heart, changed the nation's laws that shackled her people, has three retainers in the form of the tri-commission, etc.
Spoilers for the Aranara quest, but I have an additional theory about the Scarlet King.
In the Aranara quest, Arama says "There was once a survivor of the Seelie race deep within the golden desert who was friends with Queen Aranyani (Greater Lord Rukkedavata) and the ruler of Valuka (sand)."
This quote can be interpreted in two ways:
1 – It can mean the Seelie survivor was friends with both Queen Aranyani AND the ruler of Valuka, or 2 – It can mean that the Seelie survivor was the ruler of Valuka and was also friends with Queen Aranyani.
Arama also says "Seelies are just empty husks that race left behind. This is because they were born with a curse: If they fall in love with Nara (person/human), they shall lose their intelligence and strength, and their bodies will regress." (Keep in mind that Nara seems to be used to refer to something "humanoid" more than just "human", as the Traveler and their sibling are both referred to as Nara.)
We know the Scarlet King likely had some kind of romantic affections towards the Goddess of Flowers, so what if the madness that came from his mourning of her passing was caused by this regression in wisdom and intelligence?
It would also line up with what that one Ayn Al-Ahmar NPC from Part 1 of the Sumeru Archon quest said. "The Scarlet King founded the great desert nation that was our homeland. It was an advanced civilization, far beyond anything you'll see in present day Sumeru." From what we know, the Seelie civilization was also far more advanced too.
Basically, what if the Scarlet King was actually the survivor of the Seelie race? And that his spiraling descent was caused by the Seelie curse. After all, it's not uncommon for a person to realize they truly loved someone until that person is gone, hence why he would descend only after the Goddess of Flower's death.
Anyway, just a random crack theory that can very easily be wrong xD
The god of flowers is probably a god who serves the people not the nation, so even if you were from the dessert of rain forest she would help you since flowers grow everywhere
The Scarlet King and the disappearance of the people of the kingdom reminds me of the Dwemer(dwarfs) from Elder Scrolls. While searching and trying to create a technology that would raise them to godhood, the entire race disappeared one day and nobody knows why except for a few that claim that the entire race was teleported to a higher realm, that they actually succeeded.
The golden dream of the Scarlet King also sounds like how the Aranara now exists in the dream realm of Vanarana sustained by the Ashvattha tree to escape the destruction of the 1st homeland.
The realm of dreams is basically the realms of memory within the leylines of the Irminsul, the Scarlet King might have also found a way to enter the dream realm.
And if the Scarlet King actually did enter the dream realm, the memories of past, I believe his intention was to reunite with the god of flowers because of his grief. He is literally trapped in his own memory and buried himself in it, taking the entire kingdom with him.
Scarlet king kind of resembles Ei. But the difference is that Ei got out of that turmoil unlike the scarlet king
The name is making me wish that there's some reference to the king in yellow in his lore or history.
i have this fanfikton theory that the desert king and old denro god could be indeed lovers and that kusanali is their child but the way she was born or rather found could question this fact exept the denro archon coud seperate the seed(her child ) and plant it into a flower so that kusanali would be safe and she didnt had the chace to tell him about the pregnancie
you're a really good storyteller
mihoyo bought the copyright for scp 001
I wonder what, if any, connection Cyno has with all this?
Very Nice voice aster
Of course you use the scp scarlet king image
Ah yes, the Scarlet King. The king of Alchemy. User of Imperial Order, Summon Limit, Skill Drain, and Vanity's Emptiness….
Wait, wrong game.
The two reasons I clicked on this video are
1. SCP thumbnail of the Scarlet King
2. It’s from Aster, best Genshin lore channel in existence. It’s good to branch out so how about a video on the scarlet king from the SCP next time? It’s alright if you don’t want to. Just a recommendation.
Death by the scarlet rot
According to the Gilded Dreams set, which is presumably the most accurate account as it comes directly from the Irminsul, the Scarlet King's motive was not malice, but to "Meld all thoughts into one, and let all calculations be unified. Thus shall humanity become the lord of lords and the god of gods." Essentially, he was trying to merge himself and his people into a hive mind that transcends the power of the gods for humanity's sake.
Also, either he or the Goddess of Flowers was smote with a "divine pillar," ie. a Nail; I'm leaning toward it being the Goddess of Flowers, since the Gilded Dreams circlet describes it "burying tree and meadow under the flowing sands" while the Oasis Garden's Kindness describes records of her as "buried deep beneath the yellow sands," and this fits with the idea of her going to her death as a sacrifice similar to Orobaxi.
Btw mhy rename scarlet king to desert herd- forgot the last name
Ah yes now it is called Deshret
"What if Ei's fate turned worse ?"
– Hoyoverse making the scarlet king
Genshin x SCP
I just found your channel a week ago and binge-watching all of the genshin lore analysis. You're doing an amazing job with researching and connecting everything. I also noticed that your voice over now sounds a lot more energetic and confident. While I missed your soothing, slower paced VO in the past, I do like this as well. It's kinda cool to see your progression.
Not my SCP obsessed head when I thought that aster was going to make a scarlet king video
may i ask where these lore came from? i'm curious and want to look for them for myself ingame
Didn't Nahida inherited the "Goddess of Flowers" title just like she inherited the "God of Wisdom" ?
I'm 100% sure an npc told us that but I can't remember when.
Is that scarlet king scp in the thumbmail
Would be a cool if Hoyoverse placed an SCP Foundation reference or something just for giggles.
The name Scarlet King sounds like some villian from One Punch Man lol
Why does that thumbnail look like something
I was hoping for Genshin lore not a history lesson… ugh.
My kras ❤️
sands of retribution huh
Alhaitham prob the Scarlet King
From where did you get all of those informations?
Al-Ahmar means The Red One or just simply The Red in Arabic btw
Chill with chill with Easter
Chilling with chill with Easter
Hmm City of the Moon Maiden? Inazuma seems to be missing a moon city
so the scarlet king is another Raiden shogun?
SCP-999 will go to teyvat to defeat another Scarlet King
if I'm not mistaken in the desert there were 3 gods or kings, also other kingdoms with basal kings, but a tragedy happened and only 2 remained to the goddesses of flowers and the scarlet king (al-ahman), apparently the jins worship him despite being caught and put in silver bottles with his badge.
It also talks about a king I don't remember the name, but it is linked to a magical note that we found and an achievement this reveals in itself the whole history of that king who became a conqueror and in the end he led to the plague of dark beings in face that devastated the kingdoms.
He also talks about the jins, they suggested reading these books as it greatly complements the story told in the artifacts.
It was me the whole time
Good thing this didn’t happen to Zhongli when Guizhong died lol
Something interesting about Set is that he was originally seen as a benevolent god and one of the gods who guarded Ra, but was villanised due to foreign takeover of Egypt (Foreigners were under his domain, and thus the foreigners taking over Egypt was seen as him asserting control over Egypt). Parallels to the Scarlet King?
every time I hear the scarlet king I think of the scp character and in turn scp 999
Ain al ahmar means the red eye I don't know if their is myths about red eyes but eyes are represented alot in ancient Egypt
