Damn, that was depressing to read. Oh well, though.
says “mah-co,” Mako is “mae-ko” 매코/마이코"
oh hey I got mentioned
or maybe he was talking about the other trees
Macobre is korean?
honestly wouldnt be surprised at this point if tech used a quote from mahatma gandhi just to spite us
Ahhh I seeeeeeeeeeeeee
or maybe instead of completely giving up I just spout random theories in hope of hitting the correct one

Ok I have an actual, serious theory here.
Theory #1 A.K.A. My Only theory right now
What if, okay hear me out, when Tech says the climb is high, he is talking about Mt Olympus. We all know that it fell into the War Seas so maybe the goal is to climb to the top of the ruins for some reason. If we see, the eagle looks like it’s trying to take away the dove while the dove is trying to fly up.
Now if I remember correctly, in a post macobre said that the eagle was a samurai while the dove is a “Greek boi”. Now, samurai are apart of Japanese culture so I had to look up what an eagle means in Japanese Culture. Now in Japanese Culture according to Google, an eagle represents a force of nature that has existed since Ancient Times. Knowing Arcane, there are definitely a lot of ancient beings that I could think of. I don’t really know much of the story of Arcane so I don’t really know what this ancient being could be to try and stop the dove/peace reaching the top but I think this is a pretty solid theory here. The only thing I can’t really think of who the dove represents.
Now in the art post, macobre said that we were still hanging around the gods. Maybe the dove represents both peace and the Greek gods while the Eagle could represent some sort of maybe God or Japanese Being. Now since I’m Japanese culture the eagles represents ancient forces of nature, I decided to visit my friend Google again. Now I know I seem to be going a little far here right now, but hang with me. Now in Google, there are these things called Kami in Japanese culture. In Wikipedia, Kami are beings who can represent forces of nature, just like the eagle representation. Who could this Japanese being be? I don’t know yet but I think I have a pretty good theory here. Anyways that’s all :3
no I will not make a tl;dr
EDIT: Yeah I think i went too far out for this theory ;-;

keep it simple its not about some god god ez clap
Towards creating a world
Magius reference?
oof
Maybe the left side means we’ll have to establish a village or a place where it focuses on protecting other people and their rights and has a ultimate goal of liberating the oppressed or fighting for what’s right?
It could also mean that there might be sacrifices on the way if someone gives up their life to save someone or to do something important.
The comparison between the two of them…
That could mean that we will be betrayed while helping others.
This could also represent the fight between the Peacekeeper and Hades.
Unrelated note
This riddle might be for some small event and not the whole story in general, or it might even be something that relates to the story from the past.
oop, sorry to say that tech had no involvement in the humanizing of the birds. I just wanted to make human designs for them to get married. You could ask Tech how well they relate to it tho kekek.
old crib of the gods. Aka, Mt. Olympus, so nothing new here tbh
But bruh solid theory imo
Keep in mind, this is a Greek-myth based story, and the only differences are magic instead of fire.
There’s no way Tech would introduce another culture and a whole new set of deities just now. That’s too big of a surprise and just isn’t logical. Japanese culture hasn’t been mentioned up until the Keihatsu, and I don’t think that the Keihatsu is exactly Japanese. As we all know, WoM has already been deleted.
more importantly, the Keihatsu are from the Sixth Sea
Ok, I think I got the hints, I have something.
So, important hint number one:
So, it’s about something we know for sure, like a place from AA/WoM, or a character from AA/WoM.
Important hint number two:
Ok, so let’s look at the left side.
It’s a dove with an olive branch, a universaly recognisable symbol of peace, a quote about world peace from a human right activist. Hmm, seems to be about peace.
So, is there a recurring place, or maybe character from AA that is somehow related to peace?
Well, yes, there’s this one that’s kinda about peace, called
The Peacekeeper
So, I think it’s about the Peacekeeper. What about the Peacekeeper? I think it’s about their character, their personality and inherent duality in how they act.
The Peacekeepers goal is, ultimately, peace. Peace for everyone, a world without evil and all the other bad stuff.
But, to achieve that goal, the Peacekeeper has to do some not so peaceful things, namely kill Durza, and later Hades.
The Peacekeeper is the dove, yet they have to be the eagle as well. In their world, peace cannot be achieved through empathy and understanding, but through bloodshed and destruction.
And so the climb is high, as the dove ascends what is left of Mt Olympus, to become the eagle and slay an actual god.
I might have gotten a bit carried away on that last bit, but I think it’s fitting with the hints.
It’s all canon, about something we all already know about, present throughout the series and based on what’s on the left side.
Now, I await judgement.

War is a samurai bitch for a reason, tho I honestly don’t know how big a role it plays into the story
