Arcane Abyss Sea, the Atlantean Infection AU

I don’t think you understand. When the “fog” (which doesn’t even exist in lore btw) “fell,” why would ALL THE ENERGY FROM THE EPICENTER decide “hmm i need to go into the war seas”? That’s not how diffusion (what you’re trying to describe to me) works. Unless you’re saying some event took place with nuked the entire world with more energy, in which case all of humanity would just completely end.

Add more warding and we ball

The whole thing with the dark sea just “expanding” makes no sense, like what is powering its expansion? Because rn the reason the dark sea doesn’t occupy the rest of the sea clusters is because it simply doesn’t have the energy to. I thought this au was just about Atlanteans invading the war seas and not the dark sea invading the war seas

You act like fanfiction writers need a valid reason for something to happen

I dont even know what we are talking about. Someome make an rp out of it and invite me

No fiction needs any reason for anything to happen, but when vetex does it he gets dogpiled on. I mean if you ask me arcane odyssey is just a fanfic of the Odyssey

Like how gas can slowly spread out and even across a room

Yes but said gas is less concentrated (again, diffusion) and so the toxin would also be even less concentrated than layer 0 of the dark sea, so the war seas would become like the veiling storms

Brother.
The dark seas are massive when compared to the war seas
It’s like saying the sealevel drops if it floods a town
yes, it does, but the difference is minuscule since there’s so much water

Bro I swear you don’t understand. There is no “barrier” preventing magic energy from washing over the war seas, the black fog is an in game reminder of the boundary of the war seas, Vetex said so himself. Therefore, dark energy would not flood like water through a broken dam, but slowly diffuse like gas into the war seas as already the only thing that separates them is nothing but space. There is nothing preventing magical energy infiltration, it happens all the time. The war seas ARE NOT dammed up, dark sea energy simply already has spread as far as it can. I will restate, what keeps the war seas pure is not any barrier of sorts, but perhaps a cosmic vent which siphons energy off into outer space, and as dark sea energy leeches into the sea clusters, it is siphoned off. Eventually, all dark energy is siphoned away by the time of WOM

okay so
dark sea farts into the war seas

I wondered if this would be an example of a corrupted atlantean.

Still tho the sushi must be insane

I mean if you ignore the giant blist on his torso that emits flame particles around anyone near them, then guess sure, it must be good

Though I imagine sushi or meat from a highly leveled or corrupted atlantean would lead to a straight forward game over.

vetex has made it canon that cooking gets rid of magic pollution in meat thanks to the atlantean bears so… (Edit: I just realized you specifically said sushi :dove: yeah it probably would)

the stuff about cooking atlanteans throughout this whole thread has turned out to be an actually effective strategy for survival :sob: (would it still be cannibalism though?? like eating a lost sailor would 100% be cannibalism, but at some point can they be so mutated that it doesnt count as cannibalism and none of the bad stuff from eating human flesh occurs?)

I mean it would be a crossing between fish and man, or merman, but it is a horror world so what else can you really do?
