Hiveswap theory analysis fiamet xefros tritoh dammek
dammek’s ‘tetrarchy’ suggests an important group of four characters, so why not the four elements? fiamet being connected to two of them could easily connect to the character’s dual land/sea nature, and the fact that a salamander is a water creature associated with fire (illustrated by the axolotl in the concept art having fiery breath). this forms a pretty good pattern with our current thinking: xefros as in ‘zephyros’, a god of the wind, and dammek possibly from ‘adama’, the earth. to me, though, fiamet evokes tiamet a primordial babylonian goddess of the sea. It’s being pointed out that ‘fiamet’ could come from ‘fiametta’, a ballet meaning ‘little flame’ but also sometimes called ‘the salamander’. and the axolotl is an amphibian, so a sea dweller makes sense… and so does a troll who confuses us as to whether they live on the land or in the sea. this does make sense moving through the land of the land dwellers and with the ultimate goal of a battle with the heiress, of course the protagonists would be headed straight for where the sea dwellers live, and the characters they plan to meet would have to be there also. New screenshots seem to have fiamet associated with violet, rather than green. doesn’t that description sound like it could easily be applied to a first guardian, or a monster similar to one? joey’s comments on this monster are particularly thought provoking.
and then the third creature on the bottom, in the sea: an axolotl. the two beasts on the land at the top can be easily associated with xefros and dammek’s lusii on the left, a sluggish, groundhugging creature like a sloth. at the time i hypothesised that its structure, with a circle in the middle and several tails coming outward, suggested an olive sign since then the extended zodiac has come out and this would appear to be basically confirmed.Īnd then, of course, there’s the painting of three beasts. Underneath the lusus book, dammek’s table is carved with two signs the one on the right is undoubtedly his, but the one on the left is less clear. orange lights up first, then red, then green breaks before fuchsia can be reached. Joey’s simon says game features buttons in orange-yellow, red, green and fuchsia. Now for my own observations: the game seems to be hinting at a third, green troll allied with dammek and xefros, yet to appear. then it would seem to be a given that fiamet is somehow connected to it. if an axolotl is still somehow present in the game - and a drawing in jude’s treehouse would strongly suggest this is the case: beta appearances of the fiamet character had them represented by an axolotl character from animal crossing, and associated with the colour green. Obvious things that have been talked to death out of the way first: concept art for hiveswap from very early on included a first guardian-esque axolotl monster. Fiamet discussion is coming back, so i feel it’s probably a good idea to bring back my thoughts from the wake of the very first act of the game.
