Mysteries of the Elation - The Aeon Aha (Star Rail Theory and Speculation)

Рет қаралды 29,915

Күн бұрын

The Aeon of the Elation Aha is one of the most mysterious of all the Aeons in Star Rail. In this video, I go over what we know about them, the factions that follow them, and some speculations I have about them and their role in the game's story.

I think Aha could be one of the strongest Aeon or one of the smartest. Because he's the only one that can break the 4th wall in the simulated universe constantly that Herta and her colleagues have to edit him. Maybe the real Aha even know that he's inside a game that's why he thinks it's hilarious and that nothing matters because the devs control everything hahahahaha

This is also my theory. Elation encompasses the concept of bringing joy, excitement, and fun. In a meta sense, being a game, Star Rail _itself_ follows the path of Elation.

in phantylia's 2nd phase, if you idle long enough, you can hear tinkling bells and kind of unhinged, elated laughter, possibly because aha is spectating anyways, aha indulges in funny and entertaining events, and since he has confronted nanook before, he MIGHT be clowning on phantylia (affiliated with nanook) for being so weak his laughter is actually bone chilling, it feels like you are being monitored continually

As the other replies states, you can hear Aha in Phantylia's fight. But i also want to point out that books on the space station describe how Aha and Nanook have major beef, like Aha caused Nanook's scar. I'm bringing this up because Phantylia is one of Nanook's followers (i think one of his creations?) so we could possibly see more of Aha when we see more Destruction enemies

@highwaytoheaven99 10 ай бұрын

I have a theory that the "narrator" voice that speaks when we interact with garbage bins in Belobog, and courier boxes in the Luofu is Aha himself. Its not the Trailblazer speaking to him/herself, since it refers to them in 2nd person, instead of 1st person. And it does make some crazy wild comments which I can totally see Aha themselves making.

From my my understanding Aeons are the embodiment of the paths and the paths just meant the understanding and what you think of existence as a whole and I think that the trio of Akivili Aha and Nanook actually all got to the same conclusion "existence is a mistake/they're inside a game" Nanook took the direct path of just trying to destroy it all While Aha and Akivili are the different part of the same coin one wants to explore help and cherish existence while the other just saw it as a joke and since nothing matters why not just have fun with it(basically Akivili wants to spread joy while Aha just wants to indulge in it they're kinda like Batman and Joker at that point a Batman that just helps instead of beating criminals up and a Joker with no obsession with Batman and is just unhinge)

Aha maybe surprisingly wise and powerful as the tree he was standing on was likely the Imaginary Tree, thus granting it the full understanding of life and the universe

@jakeblitzcoffie4859 Жыл бұрын

It wasn't the Imaginary Tree. The Imaginary Tree is an 11D structure and holds infinite universes. The tree Aha stood on was something else entirely. It was a tree connected to the universe of HSR, which has nothing to do with the Hi3 universe.

@Aha Gotcha The tree Aha was on was called the Tree of Existence, which very specifically affects the HSR universe and not the whole of Hoyoverse like the Imaginary Tree does. People have just theorized that it's the Imaginary Tree, when in fact it's not because that would contradict the lore of Hi3 and how the Imaginary Tree works. No being that is 4D can climb to the higher dimensions of the Imaginary Tree. The only beings that can do that are the strongest Herrschers and the Outer gods from Ggz, who are actually way above the limit of the Imaginary Tree. Aha and the other Aeons are limited to their respective universe, which is a leaf on the Imaginary Tree itself. So the tree Aha climbed is a universal tree within a leaf of the Imaginary Tree. Imaginary Tree > Tree of Existence

I'm wondering if Sampo is even his real name, because one of the Stellaron Hunters is called Sam which has caused people to assume that maybe he's just one of them and not a Masked Fool. However it could be a coincidence and they are two different individuals, or maybe it isn't a coincidence and Sampo uses the name Sampo just to mess with the theorists, honestly if he did a fourth wall break and addressed this I would laugh. 🤣(Although its also possible he's in both groups) Anyway I hope we see more of him, he's a pretty entertaining character and he's interesting from a lore perspective since just like March the rating gun on Herta's ship says that he has an invalid rating. The only other person that gets this result is Jing Yuan and he's an emanator of the Hunt, so maybe Sampo will end up being an emanator of Aha?

While I wouldn't say either of them are my favorites(at least, not right now,) I definitely find Aha and IX the most interesting, and assuming we will eventually get a section of main story related to every Path/Aeon, those are the two I look forward to most. Right now I think my favorite Aeon is Lan, simply because Dan Heng and The Hunt Path Resonance carried me through most of the game and the Xianzhou Luofu is my favorite area, but I mostly haven't paid enough attention to the lore yet to pick favorites of most characters besides their gameplay. I do really love Sampo though, and I'd love if he came back to the story later, especially as a "different" character

I would argue that among the Aeons, Aha, and Akivili were the most "free," because their paths coincide the most with freedom. Akivili's path of Trailblaze is all about freedom and exploration, so THEY had almost as much freedom as a mortal would. Aha's path of Elation is all about taking joy and pranks of all things, so THEY can basically do whatever, as long as it's sufficiently funny. THEIR paths are broad enough to allow THEM an approximation of free will.
