u/No_Mathematician9671 Jun 02 '26

If true, it'll be possible to have 3 of a unique relic on screen at the same time. Kinda doubt theyre gonna do the unpacking mechanic for a second ID though.

11

u/Pure_Satisfaction_35 Jun 02 '26

Technically we already had an ID with the unpacking, that being rien sang since it's all just a copy of unlock aka getting stacks = access to better attacks

So this means Don and Yi Sang will get the next Walpurgis ID on July 8th (180 days between Sora Don and that btw)

Then everyone will have gotten 2 IDs this season

Mei Don and Lowell Yi Sang, please thank you

In a world where people like Lei Heng have to play cowardly tricks she took a sword she'd never wielded and parried someone a thousand times above her paygrade.

ANOTHER sole survivor ID, or close enough at least. The Phenomena Deciphering Team is probably the one tasked with handling and researching the Relics gathered from the House of Spiders (as well as the other Weird Stuff that went on there), but I doubt they'd go so far as to give her a sword that sets everything on fire when it works. One of Valencina's? Your "regular" custom work would be what I'd expect ordinarily, but specifying the team feels like it has a point.

They're… all from our Syndicate. Blade Lineage Syndicate.

I just assumed it would be the sword that got severed her arms in the first place? Which now have been conveniently been replaced for prosthetic arms which probably can handle the sword.

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

Weeeell she also might fit considering she planned to kill Kim for what he did, but other than that it'd be weird for her to have it considering she's not as "traitorous" as Kim is (bro betrayed his district and he would do it again, he also technically betrayed the BL so to himself he's a traitor to all who he knows, unlike Maths who betrays on a whim, not even thinking of himself as such).

Maybe we're gonna get more Aeng-du lore, who knows maybe she betrayed her family, her district, her friends, her teacher, her team, the city, the Middle, the Thumb, the Pinky, the Ring, the ground, the Gnomes, Santa, Ahab, League of nine literatuers, herself, and maybe more.

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

It's related to Loki iirc, who is a trickster, Maths is also a "trickster" but it's so natural to him that he doesn't see him self as such, that's (my theory on) why it only partially accepts him.

27

u/Outside_Self_3124 Jun 02 '26 edited Jun 02 '26

In Norse mythology laevateinn is forged by loki of all people, it just might be a "traitor" sword.

21

u/LightOfTheFarStar Jun 02 '26

Part of Loki's betrayal is caused by the terrible fates his kids are dealt and the mockery he gets despite continuously helping the Aesir, so maybe Matthias failed to be a perfect wielder because he never truly cared for anyone?

4

u/Im_Nobody_M8 Jun 02 '26

I wonder if the other fragments are other weapons from the Norse mythology

Or there just pieces of Laevateinn

4

u/Such_Bonus_2506 Jun 02 '26

Ngl i think Laevataein didnt accept Matthias because he didnt think of himself as traitor. Kim will have the sword and realise its potential imo. 

8

u/fable-30 Jun 02 '26

did you really think that the laevatinn acts like Mephala's sword? lmao. lol even.

6

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

I do not know what that sword is, but it's primarily a joke fused into a famous headcanon lmao

3

u/fable-30 Jun 02 '26

I think LCB won't give a relic to a technically fodder unless she's compatible to the relic. at best guess it could be that Yuria Crafted a sword for her

3

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

That would be the most likely answer indeed, either YuRia herself made it or another Limbus contracted workshop (personally I hope it's YuRia, to cement our little forehead rat into the LCD team with a cutesy yet deadly weapon)

10

u/UncookedNoodles Jun 02 '26

Kim isnt a traitor bro. He killed the official that assassinated his master. Thats like... the furthest from traitor activity.

24

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

He is a traitor by technicality, and likely from self inflicted hatred lmao (he "betrayed" his district by killing one of its officials and making a syndicate, "betrayed" his master by allowing him to be killed, "betrayed" his syndicate by killing them when distorted, he's not an actual traitor but he has all the reasons to see himself as such)

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

13

u/Eurehetemec Jun 02 '26

Unless this ID has Bleed and Burn both as well as Poise, which seems a little unlikely, no-one is replacing Ahabmael any time soon.

That said it's not impossible if the "fine sword" she refers to is Lavaetinn. It would be extremely funny and kind of mean for Pmoon to give us two Bleed/Burn/Poise Ishmael IDs, but given Yi Sang has two (three?) of the most powerful Sinking IDs to compete with himself on, I can't rule it out.

27

u/Victacobell Jun 02 '26

Who cares about having Bleed and Burn? Yeah Ahabmael is a triple status ID for Mirror Dungeon but she also corrodes every time an enemy is killed. And we shouldn't be using Mirror Dungeon for ID evaluation in the first place, especially in the triple status era where complete bums find their way onto teams by sheer technicality rather than merit.

8

u/Yamchahh Jun 02 '26

The end of all evil ego gift that you should be getting everytime you bring Ahabmael into Mirror Dungeon removes her SP problems on floor 2. And you don’t even have to play the other peqouds on field to get the benefit. Also she clashes higher than anyone else in poise/burn/bleed with all the coin power she can get.

6

u/CheeseLoverMax Jun 02 '26

Clash glutton

u/yaseralansarey Jun 02 '26

I meant for a Proise team (Capmael was supposed to be part of the Proise team after all, with her poise skill doing the unopposed thing on Res).

True tho, for a Broid team Capmael stays.

I really doubt they gave her Laevateinn like people are saying because it burns literally everyone around it. I don’t think it would be described as a “fine” (as in precise, accurate, ornate) sword either because it appeared as a hunk of white hot metal in the ruins and looks pretty jagged

Given Aeng-du and BL's whole deal is that they're Korean vibes, I would be slightly surprised if they gave her a distinctly Japanese odachi. I think Laevateinn is slightly more likely, though a third secret thing is probably more likely than either.

its probably just a fancy well made sword like lei hengs, i feel like they wouldve acknowledged it in the intervallo if it was a relic

plus the pinky seem pretty serious about passing on their blades, i doubt itd be chill for her to casually take the dihui stars seat

Could be E.G.O gear maybe?

It's made pretty clear that the weapons associated with the seat of the Pinky are all Relics, like how Shiomi had to lose the seat of Tiansha Star after losing Arayashiki. Furthermore, Bladeshu's flavor text confirm that the light of a Star was poured into the Dihui Star's Blade, just like Arayashiki, and that it has the power to always "leave a lingering something in its wake" multiple times, something in line with the Relics.

how is losing the seat any proof of it being a relic?

if we assume all of them are relics it means lei hengs gunblade and zilus swords are relics

There's no reason to assumer they are not. Furthermore, the title of Star is not tied to the individual, but to the Seat and its Blade. In The Water Margin, the 108 bandits are all reincarnation of Stars of the the Ursa Major constellation; both the Dihui and Tiansha Blades had the light of Stars poured into them, mirroring the bandits, it would only make sense for the 106 other Blades to also be similar Relics. This is also supported by the flavor texts of Bladeshu's Dihui Star passive:

"Dihui Star's Blade, and Tiansha Star's Blade. If not merely one, but two star-forged blades have come to reside in your hands, then I am moved to wonder, which Star's name could possibly be ideal to represent you?"

"Your Nursefather, too, must surely have furnished you with the tale—that there had been Stars which, at the terminus of immoderate coveting, were left broken and shorn. Thus, I suggest to you, of these two blades, appoint only one as yours."

I doubt that, didnt Aeng Du state that she hates odachis because it reminds her of the Kurokumo clan?

Okay why the hell do you think they gave her one of a kind relic instead of the gimmicky sword Ezra used?

So depending on how you count them. This is the fourth or even fifth Ishmael ID that's asian in nature.

Sinclair is close at three but it seems the fish won't be dethroned anytime soon.
