I love this archon quest's name so much. In Chinese it's 罪人舞步旋 (Masquerade of the Guilty), pronounced "Zuìrén wǔbù xuán" and if you read it backwards you'll have "Xuānbù wú rén zuì" which means "Declared no one Guilty"
@iheartshelb
focalors saying "hydro dragon, hydro dragon don't cry" made me cry😭
@VermilionVector
She REALLY believed in Neuvillette so much that she decided to go with this plan. She invited him to take on the role of the Iudex, HOPING that he would understand the ways of humans and sympathize with them enough to 'forgive' their sins. If Neu got his power back and decided to 'nope' out of all of this, her plan is doomed.
@mfrn_swn.04
seeing furina just sitting there, crying and not responding anymore is really sad tbh
@Ravelium
I love Focalor's detachment when she talks. Despite the little characterization she receives, the inhuman morality is not hidden. I'm glad they didn't follow the pure, kind-hearted anime maiden trope. Like, pureness and good intentions don't mean you will behave in a good manner. There is this subtle lack of empathy that reminds you we are not dealing with a human.
@Gh.stKng.
I feel so bad for Furina, the way she just sat there tiredly, not even responding anymore and just crying silently.
@thanglongnguyenvu3815
Dang. So Furina was just forced into carrying Fontaine on her small back for 500 freaking years.
@Qoko88
Can we please acknowledge Amber Lee Conners being absolutely insane in this double, perhaps triple, role? Triple for embodying Focalors, playful Furina and broken Furina. That these distinct voice lines are all voiced by the same person, with immense feeling, is almost ridiculous.
@miradaewhitespell2790
It's ironic that we learned from the Teyvat storyline that the Hydro Archon is one "not to make an enemy of the divine." And yet here she is blatantly destroying the Hydro Archon's throne returning the power to one of the Dragon Sovereigns.
@anuraghsaka8630
First makoto, then rukhadevatta, and now focalor. Just how many more sacrifices are needed to defeat and wage war with heavenly principles.
@choryu367
I finally understood - "Faced with death, I find myself a little afraid, Perhaps, This is one thing both gods and humans have in common". might also be the reason why Furina danced the same in her inner mind , thinking she might also dissolve along with the people of fontaine. What a masterpiece.
@WackyChu
Can we not talk about how Rukkadavata and Focalars literally killed themeselves for their people? Rukka for Irminsal and Elzar. But foca just did it because the power was stolen therefore injustice and for the original sin from Egeria. Focalars was forced to die she didn’t have a choice.
@lordoftheabyssknull8280
To clear up the confusion Focalars and Furina were once the same person. However, they split into two one being “divinity” and the other “humanity”. Essentially becoming two halves of the same coin with different “faces” this case that being personalities. So technically Furina dispite not being divine she is still technically Focalars in human flesh the “former” hydro archon. Just without the power and memories. Similar to Nahida and rukkadevata situation specifically in which they are essentially the same person but just with different personalities and experiences and Raiden for that fact as well. Furina possibly holds some sort of residual power from Focalars. Given she is the only character that can wield both Arke energies. That even Neuvillte can’t wield together. Now that Focalars sacrificed herself Furina is now free from her curse and can live her life as human which is what Focalars wanted to do in the first place. In addition Neuvillte is now the true hydro sovereign he is not the archon. The seat of the hydro archon is now destroyed meaning there can’t be a hydro archon unless celestia somehow interferes which is very possible. Since celesta wants 7 gods to exist as there representatives to display power and authority over tevyat. Fontaine is now free of that authority and now it is another “Khanera”. So Furina or someone else could technically re-gain that power either by choice or against their will by the heavenly principles themselves. Also Neuvillte technically can’t be the archon even if he wanted to bc the heavenly principles won’t allow the very thing they destroyed(The original Dragon Sovereigns) to sit next to them or represent them. Nor would Neuvillte even would want to become an archon given he dislikes celesta already. So instead of there being the seven archons it’s now six as of late. Focalars gave celestia the fattest screw you to date. But, it will eventually come back to bite Fontaine in the end. As of what we know every civilization that has went against, and or not follow a direct god established and accepted by of the heavenly principles have all ended in curses or destroyed entirely leaving only echos. It is only 4.2 there are still a handful of updates that haven’t taken place yet. I don’t think Furina, Fontaine, and Neuvillte or done just yet. Even Focalars for that matter we have seen gods revived. Can’t wait for the rest of story to play out.
@ColumbinaEscoffierNilouFan_69
7:18. "And all along, she's been playing her part in the most unimaginably long, unbearably lonely, and agonizing painful opera of all time." That line hit hard. This is why I love Furina
@amberxv4777
This was even sadder than Rukhadevatta's death. Neuvillette's heart must have shattered watching her die. And he will lose Furina too in no time. Why must he suffer like this? At least Nahida could forget what she has lost.
@namelessbard2124
Focalors’ bow after the dance looks like she’s sticking her neck out for the guillotine to fall. I couldn’t breath when the entire cutscene was playing out. The storytelling was so amazing.
@sauce8148
"Farewell Neuvillete, I hope you've enjoyed the role you've played these 500 years" That line gave me chills. Absolutely perfectly delivered line, the voice actress did such a good job. I can't praise her enough. Absolutely peak writing. FREE GAME BTW.
@syllphon7969
Still so happy and sad how Egeria was the god of "Existence" while Focalors was the god of Justice it really showcases the both of them and how their fates were brought upon them very unfairly
@momochi8179
It hits me hard that Neuvillette cries like I know that he's a cool dude that when he's sad it will rain, but now we witness that his crying with tears.
