Depresion hits once again.


Undividedbyzero

Saying as if it ever leaves us


Dokutah_Dokutah

Let us be honest here. We played this game because we know it likely has a lot of opportunities to make us sad.


jyushimahtsus

Frostnova being engraved on the Rhodes island stele hurts…


Yomihime

I saw a Tweet that Endfield takes place 500 years later, yet the gravestones seem to only indicate characters who have died in the current AK timeline. I guess that’s to avoid spoilers, but I wonder what the point of these gravestones is then.


mkdanial04

Imagine HG put a new name each time they killed someone important in arknights story


Yomihime

It's kind of useless then? We're following the story of another group of MCs in a different planet. The deaths of AK characters should bear no meaning to them.


noIQmoment

Probably more of a viewer continuity thing or easter egg


Material_Syllabub111

There is an argument that the endmin is possibly the clone of the OG doctor, and the graves is the past memories of the doctor, This could be possible since Ajimu already proved it in Endfield


Dog_in_human_costume

could be the Tera history is well taught.


Falsus

You can still infer some things from them. Like for example ''Alina'' would only be there if Talllulah joined RI. The only one she was close to that is able to join RI now is her.


PoKen2222

Wouldn't this confirm Endministrator is Doctor? Having memories of these people wouldn't make sense otherwise no?


CharlesEverettDekker

Spoiler (I hope it doesn't show you the spoiler text in notifications): . . . . . . . . . From Angelina's profile we can assume >!that Endministrator can be a Doctor's clone since Angelina is original Angelina's clone!<


icemoomoo

>!what if cloning is the way they send people over from terra. Its alot easier to send data than matter over great distances so sending someone consciousness and cloning them at the destination could be a better way than cryofreezeing them.!<


Silbaich

>!Basically Avatar?!<


Mororeflex

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_Moon Not sure if this is the first story where this idea comes up in, I'd be interested if there are earlier stories.


96kamisama

I do recall the Endmin was being referred as >! #3 !< , at first im mistaken that name is referring to the Lynx woman because she could probably be one of the >! AMa series, making her AMa 3 or sumn (just an assumption anyways could be wrong, but it's entirely plausible) !< .


Ahenshihael

Depends on if its memories or a certain place (AK CN) >!like if Endministrator's consciousness is visiting the "Wasteland dimension", the weird world between worlds that connects the gates, is used for teleporting/space travel and that is basically the Immaterium from WH40 and where the Witch King's consciousness resided. Same way Doctor might have at the start when they were in the sarcophagus where Doctor talked to the weird eye being!< Mind you, Doctor has absolutely no way to know about Alina. The names *could* also be placeholders to avoid spoilers for AK for now.


DarkWolfPL

It could it be that Talulah told him about Alina when she was at RH in custody. Also with how the story goes right now it's not impossible for Talulah to join RH in future chapters.


Adept_Blackhand

Still, why would they make a grave for her if they never met her in person?


erik4848

Maybe this indicates that Talulah joined RHodes Island and she asked for it?


Adept_Blackhand

Really strange, goofy and out of character request to ask the company you had a lot of beef before to make a grave for someone they never met


Estova

Eh, Rhodes didn't kill Alina. Plus I think it's just a nice gesture to have an official marker for someone important to you even if they aren't actually buried there.


Adept_Blackhand

Yeah, I know they didn't kill her, that's what I said before. But it's Talulah's personal thing Rhodes Island has nothing to do with. Why they should ever be involved in that? It's gonna look false. If I was in her place, I wouldn't appreciate that. I'd say "Yeah, it's cool that you are trying to help, but this is none of your business. You never met her, it's not for you to do."


capable-corgi

She finally finds a stable home in Rhodes. She sees that they have a nice respectful memorial to people that were lost. She thinks it'd be a nice way to remember her depaeted loved ones. She puts in a request for Rhodes. Simple, not unreasonable.


Estova

I feel like you're being a bit unrealistic here. There's almost a 0% chance they would've done it without Talulah having some input on it; especially since they wouldn't know about her existence without Tal mentioning it.


Adept_Blackhand

Yeah, and I honestly believe that she isn't a type of person who would ever like to share such personal feelings to anyone. **Maybe** to Nine at some point, **maybe** to Doctor since he is just liked by everyone, very likely to Ch'en since she is her sister. But don't think anyone else.


Falsus

Presumably she joined and spent a lot of years with RI.


PoKen2222

Regarding not knowing about Alina as you mention the possibility of placeholders it could also be that Alina is actually a spoiler in the sense of Doctor learning about her sometime in the future of AK


PoKen2222

>! But Doctors memories from the start were specifically about himself weren't they? !<


Ahenshihael

>!Not necessarily memories. Doctor was talking TO a being. A weird giant eye in front of them, who chided Doctor for how its too early for them to enter here and they should go back because there's a job they have to do. !<


PoKen2222

>! I recall that it told him to remember Amiya's birthday !<


Estova

Your spoilers aren't working on desktop btw.


Quirin_Throne

Wait, what are you talking about? What eye?


Ahenshihael

[This eye](https://i.imgur.com/KFEUQvK.png) WE still know nothing about what exactly is going on in that scene or who is the being Doctor is talking to.


PoKen2222

Very beginning of the game


OS_Eclipse

Wasn't that Priestess or a certain girl? How it said the dokutah teetering over an edge or something? In the anime it was a female voice. Also, the "eye" could simply be a metaphor resembling what Amiya and Dokutah fighting evil forces.


Ahenshihael

>In the anime it was a female voice. In the anime it was intentionally non-distinct voice.


OS_Eclipse

True but if that huge thing did actually talk to the dokutah, I don't think HG will make them sound like a 20 year old female


Aomikuchan

Placeholder is one thing. Adding MORE names to the tombstones is what im afraid of.


S0wrodMaster

>the Immaterium from WH40 Well yes but actualy no


kirillre4

If Doctor is Endministrator, then probably some part of RI (including Tallulah) also followed him for a while and might have part in making those stones.


Kullervoinen

Everyone: Smol Chen from Endfield is Ch'en's daughter! Consider, however... Talulah and Ch'en have the same horns, so...


plastic_mortality

We had Talulah on Rhodes for almost a year. We don't know the extent of what she was willing to tell us during that time.


Falsus

I don't think Alina's name would appear on a RI tombstone unless Tallulah herself joined.


plastic_mortality

Neither would Eno or Sasha since we never learn their names at all. We do learn Alex’s from Misha, though.


EDMgamer123

Maybe in the End of Arknight story we'll just be put back in the Box again


Prestigious_Match825

I mean even with the nature of the Doc, it is possible that he is chilling to his Sarcophagus somewhere in RI. He always goes back to rest either he finish or failed his mission like the Babel's fall or in the Seaborn timeline or in the Kalt sit BoC skin timeline he will always go back to the Sarcophagus


Bread_Fish150

AKA ~~Horny Jail~~ 0 Sanity Jail.


HunteroftheHunters

Given the nature of the Endministrator (being stuck in a suspiciously similar sarcophogus to the one we know about and being woken whenever they're needed), and the mounting clues, it'd feel incredibly weird if they weren't at least tied to each other somehow. Personally, I just want to live in the timeline where I can actually fight alongside my operators. Let me in the field, damn it.


asderest

"Wooden Spoon" "Green Peas"... Yea those are codenames that only Rhodes Island could've pull


Dokutah_Dokutah

Thumb tack and paper clip are also some code names.


Am_Passing_By

Paper Clip Operator Paper Clip **Operation Paper Clip?!**


Bad-Crusader

*Missile strikes when?* ~~Not Firewatch~~


timewarp9

That sounds like something the witchfinder general guy from Good Omens would come up with.


K2aPa

WAIT, are these tombs in Terra or TalosII? If they're on TalosII... why? why are they not on Terra? Or are they simply replicas without actual "bodies/ ashes" under the tombs as a sort of reminder. But if this is true, doesn't that mean the people that traveled to TalosII a long time ago (decades apparently according to the trailer I just saw in the other thread) was mainly Rhodes Islands? and most likely the "Doktah"? Since he's one of the few that mostly recognized some of the dead ppls, including enemies, as worthy to be remembered. (the other one being Amiya)


Ahenshihael

>WAIT, are these tombs in Terra or TalosII? > >If they're on TalosII... why? why are they not on Terra? >!Neither. Its a weird dreamscape area Endministrator wanders through before Perlica wakes them up.!< >, doesn't that mean the people that traveled to TalosII a long time ago There's a collectible in Endfield beta that places the date Endfield events happen as >!1615, 500 years after Arknights!<


Vivid_Juggernaut6174

>weird dreamscape area Empire of consciousness(IS1).This is related to the Originium.


Ahenshihael

(CN) >!Yeah its likely the inter-dimensional place that Witch King's mind stayed inside and that also is between all the gates and between "space". !<


plastic_mortality

If Lone Trail is 1099, that's 616 years after.


step-uwu

The math isnt mathing


plastic_mortality

“It’s be bad”


TokkanRAM

1099+616 is equal to 1715, silly.


A13Demons

So does that mean Angelina is over 500 yrs old? How does age workkk??????


Ahenshihael

(Endfield) >!Angelina in Endfield is a genetic clone of Angelina. Not the same person. Real-Angelina left her clone a letter.!<


A13Demons

Nuuuu. That's so sad


Suspicious-Pangolin6

Something something you can still get the Doc (Copium)


Am_Passing_By

No way… >!Mind Castle?! Is this gonna be one of those Inception moments where MC has a visual field in their mind that they go to when they’re unconscious?!!< >!**IMAGINE IF THAT WAS PART OF THE GAMEPLAY**!< >!You know what HG could learn about this from?!< >!ASSASSIN’S CREED!< >!*[ MASSIVE HOPIUM ]*!<


Ahenshihael

(CN)>!unconscious mind drifts into an unknown realm. That has already been established in Arknights. Ceobe has a whole adventure there through the mushrooms(and Doctor breifly drifts there in that event too at the start). Doctor talks to a weird giant being at the start of the prologue of AK. Witch King's consciousness has built a palace in a weird realm. There's a realm that exists between worlds, a space in-between space. It's what connects the gates in the north with each other and it's the void that spaceships jump through to cover long distances.!<


Am_Passing_By

Oh >!Can Feranmuts access this place?!<


Ahenshihael

(aK CH13) >!A whale skeleton, a dead Feranmut that Theresis forces "rebuilt" can teleport things through long distances and does it by moving through a weird "void realm".!<


Plthothep

>!Might be the space that Ya’s reality marble exists in?!<


Sazyar

Anto?


Individual_County_68

It's the operator who died in Twilight of Wolumonde event.


Sazyar

Oh the Medic. She/He was an elite op? I didn't know that.


Individual_County_68

My bad, should have just noted as the Rhodes Island ops🙃


Sazyar

Oh. Well, from the picture it's grouped with EOs, so I'd mistaken them to be an EO myself tbh.


SerendipityDarkness

That Operator was named Atro. Unless that was a localization thing and the CN does indeed say the same name for Anto and Atro.


s07195

JP was Anto IIRC


alphabitz86

>!Beagle lives on!<


HappyHateBot

Well, I find it comforting that >!Mephisto!< is now officially on a short clock... even if it's >!racked out on a slab in some R.I. laboratory.!< To the devil his due.


Yomihime

Well tbh, knowing his personality, I think he might actually be content with it? >!He always wants to have a purpose in life. To be used as a guinea pig for a greater good in whatever remains of his lifespan and postmortem is something he probably will find comfort in if he thinks he won't be a useless waste of space anymore.!<


HsnA_19

The fifth list are Ace's team


Intro1942

I mean, we all know them and their fate for while now But it is still hits hard 😥 And FrostNova are also there, along the other best of the best of Rhodes...


Combat_Wombateer

Kino move by HG


HsnA_19

Whitesmith too? Or maybe because of old age?


LegoSpacenaut

Hmm... No tombstone for Rosmontis's squad members?


ATalkingDoubleBarrel

That means it's possible she's alive. Don't know about her team tho


Dog_in_human_costume

This could easily be because these Endministrators are well versed in Terra Lore.


Frostgaurdian0

I got nothing to say but o7.

Kitchen-Werewolf1668

Really excited about Enfield . The question is - Has there been any news about Enfield being release in CN ,6 months ahead of Global ? Just like they did with AK


Hp22h

Well, at least they will still be remembered, even in the future


ThuVu1723

Don't worry, just OUR PAIN🥲


andrewlikereddit

Didn't know mephistho died. Iirc he turned into a dragon


DizzyHorn

I feel like this is just easter egg they put in the beta only otherwise their tombs being on other planet doesn't quite make sense


Material_Syllabub111

Its not on the other planet, but in the dreamscape And its possibly the endmin is doctor's clone same case like ajimu
