Oh Al-Senpai, I was just daydreaming about you~

On second thoughts, it's probably best to leave it...  Though calling him Al-Senpai at some point is tempting, just for a laugh.

+1 to doing this at some point.

120 days into the future

Looks like a previous cycle was trying to contact us. Perhaps each cycle is 120 days long?

[Darvi]

This cycle has been going on for over a year now, so I doubt it.

INB4 DL1 was owned by the Last Seraphim the ENTIRE TIME!(it isn't dead yet,6+Oric+LS=8)

Oric *did* rise through the DL's, leaving the Last Seraphim alive. So it's most likely DL1 belongs to the LS.

Spoiler: Insane Theorycrafting (click to show/hide)

I just had a revelation that expands on previous theorycrafting, using our newfound knowledge. Bear with me.

So let's say there's this dungeon crawl game. The protagonist and his six siblings have been captured. The protagonist starts out at the bottom of a dungeon, and he has to fight his way to the top for freedom. And, just for fun, let's say there are 8 levels. So, the protagonist goes through the first level, and finds that the exit to the next level is guarded by a big bad boss. A demon of sorts. The protagonist slays it, and goes to the next level. Anytime the protagonist dies, he's reset back to the first level. As he rises through the levels, each boss-demon-devil-thing gets bigger and badder. But, he finds his siblings scattered throughout the dungeon, and they join him. Finally, the protagonist makes it to the final boss. This final boss is one ugly motherfucker. Thousand-yard neck, gaping maw, clearly EVIL, and the only thing standing between him and freedom. He kills it and gets his freedom.

GAME OVER WOULD YOU LIKE TO CONTINUE Y/N? >Y

BEGIN LEVEL ONE

And such is the life of this protagonist. Even when he wins, he's just reset back to the beginning, and has to do the whole thing over again. And he does. Except, one time, he gets to the final boss again, and has a thought. Wouldn't it be more fun to extend the game by not killing the boss? What if he were to become the final boss of his own game? So he instead imprisons the final boss, and recreates the dungeon for his own game.



This is Oric's story. He is the protagonist. We're just one of the siblings.

Which begs the question: What are the cycles? Well, each time Oric died or won, the game reset, and a new cycle begun. And if each cycle was different, one of the cycles could've involved a betrayal by one of the siblings.



...or..............

Ciro is the new angel in training. Oric will meet up with Betweenford next on DL8, the end of the dungeon, after the new angel's training is complete. DL8 is also where we'll be when we "finish" the Warrens.

As for who the Lord is:




Blue Chick.

[javierpwn]

I find it a tad ironic the most sane of your theories is the one you called insane.

We've seen the Angel-In-Training, he knows nothing, but the fact he is going to replace Oric as the Warden of the OS(which is a tad strange, because then their original master would still be locked up) And more importantly, ANGELS DON'T BLEED
We've also killed Blue Chick as Minus, pushing her into acid; so unless she is hiding a gaping maw behind that scarf, she isn't The Lord of Angels

Hold on. The talk about our will overtaking hers makes me think she may be some sort of opposite/anti-hero-type character.

Her colour scheme is the opposite of ours, and she's traveling with angels instead of humans. Hmm.

[Darvi]

Y'know how every sibling (or, indeed, every soul star holder) has a colour associated with them (not necessarily the one of the star itself)? Who else thinks that Ecco's is pink?

...Well, by process of elimination, I suppose there's a good chance it is. We're running out of colours. I don't think it's pink, but I don't think it's not pink.

Also, another thing that connects her to Ciro is that she's blue and the Astral Influx is blue.

[Darvi]

You're confusing Ecco for Bluelet, methinks.

the speaker seraph has a pink color scheme, yes. Just like Cain has a purple color scheme.

If she's the eye, her Star should be teal-ish. Which makes her even more confusing.

[Darvi]

Wait that's been confirmed? Damn.

By "her" I meant Blue. I have an unfortunate tendency to forget context.

[RanDomino]

So Oric wants the "aberrant," of which we have met two.  Al, the Aberrant Exile, and Mili, the Aberrant Thief.  I'm thinking Mili's death cost us some exposition.

Is "Resurrect Milli" on the List O' Things We May Wish To Do Eventually?  Is it even possible?

Do we have her corpse? If so, it's definitely possible. If not, it may be possible.

[Darvi]

We do, and her name's Ciro.
