THIS PAGE HAS LOTSA SPOILERS IN BOLD!!!
Well, last night I started playing The Way from episode one, getting all the stats and stuff, so when The Way 6 comes out, I'll be good and ready.

I decided to make notes on interesting conversations and stuff like that, since so many things are a mystery. But first, you gotta understand, I've only read the first page of topics, and theres like 5 more, and I'm too lazy to read the rest... these might not be original or anything, this is just what I think...

Anyways, getting back to the topoic at hand...Where to start.

Rhue is Jeruh, Lyrra's brother. In Lide, Gaius thinks to himself "He really doesn't remember me? Him and I killed that person together, although it was mostly him..." yadda, yadda, yadda "Although his name has changed, wasn't that the name of...?" SO! Rhue isn't Rhue's real name (One point for my theory) Gaius know's him, and they killed someone together, apparently th name "Rhue" has a special signifigance to Gaius, but he doesn't reveal it. In episode 1, at that bridge, the "Novice headhunter" asks if you've seen Jeruh, Rhue takes a REALLY long time to answer, almost like he's thinking of something... I wonder what. He finally say's no. Even if Rhue doesn't know he's Jeruh (Amnisea, something to do with messed up Aura's, something to do with his sword [more on his sword later]), something about the word Jeruh being spoken to him made him react. Next part. Scatha is Serna. In the pits, you tell Scatha about Serena, she gets all defensive and asks "Was she beautiful?"... "Yes" you say. "Was that why you loved her?" "Nope." "BULLSHIT!" Scatha is angry because SHE is serena, and she obviously wears the mask because she has a disfiguring scar or something...(I wasn't paying attention in that cutscene...) She thinks that Rhue, er... Jeruh won't love her anymore because she is ugly, she starts a big speec about how guys only like pretty girls, and there is no such thing as love. Furthermore, before that conversation, Rhue tells her, "I'll mess up you're pretty hair!" and she gets all caught up on that...which might be ust because she has such "low self esteem" but then again, it might be becasue she wants Rhue to think she is beautiful. After their scuffle, she lets Rhue find his own way outta the pits, and then saves him by lowering the spike trap in his way. saying to herself ""Is it really him? Something is different about him other than his name."(Which also supports my Rhue is Jeruh theory.) Next bit. Rhue's sword is one of the illuminati. The people who gave it to him wanted to get rid of the burden of having such a powerful item of virtue in their old age, and gave it to Rhue, because he is young and could use it for good. I came to this conclusion on three clues. 1. Under ballar's house, he knocks the Shadow Sword into the pits, and when people get mad at him he says he didn't know why he did it, and thinks "Did something just posess me?" 2. "When you're fighting the PS wannabe in the pits, halfway throug the battle Rhue says "My Sword is going crazy!" which is, of course, because he is fighting something of pure evil with a weapon of pure light (also why I hit him a 35 last blow, I guess) 3. Later on in episode 5, when jumping to save Cesta you can't kill the harbringer with youre sword, why? I'll tell you, becasue The harbringer is a man of god. (Someone else brought this up, give props to him, not me.) Tranziun carry's a shadow sword At the end of your stay at Lide, Traziun dissapears, and you see a cutscene of him at the place the shadow sword was cast into the pits "I know it's down there somewhere." he says "And I'm gonna find it!" So, this doesn't need much explaining, You meet up with traziun later on. Where? OUSIDE THE BLOODY PITS!!! He hasn't equiped the shadow sword yet, but he does! Thats where he gets all the red hot power when hes fighting all the blood lyn up to his father. (Signature slash was sweet btw.) I don't have any theories on who killed his mother REALLY. and thats actually about it for my theories... maybe you guys can use the rest of my notes though.

FACTS
-Midian is the name of the man searching for Jeruh
-Scatha says she likes Cetsa's new outfit
-Kloe thinks the PS is "Her" and that she "Hates her."
ASSUMPTIONS
-Knowing girls, scatha's disfigurment probably isn't half as bad as she says it is.
-Rhue isnt the Phantom Slasher, Gaius is.

Sorry if I stole anyone's material writing this, if I did, my bad.
Positive feedback please! I'll read the rest of the posts when I have time and my own computer with internet access. talk to you cat's later.

Scatha is Serna.

Nope, Scatha is Slade sister, and the disfiguring scar you talk of was her mother burning her face. And the scartha is Serena is a no no. First, that would mean she is chasta. serena no= Chasta.

[Cyberian]

But remember the playable flashbacks

You can choose the personality, and the hair color of serena, and my guess is it changes who she ends up being.

Also, I'm pretty confident that Gaius is the phantom slasher because the sillohette fits him more than Rhue, plus there were to many times when Rhue came face to face with it.

Also, my theory is that rhue or "Jeruh" killed Traziuns mother. With his special slash and super abillity whatever, he's to powerful to ever have as an ally again. No doubt you will end up fighting him.

[Impossible]

That's true, we choose too much about Serena for her to be an existing character, really. However, the sprite/faceset/shadow theories regarding the PS have NO grounding whatsoever. Lun himself has said t hey are meaningless.

Next part. Scatha is Serna. In the pits, you tell Scatha about Serena, she gets all defensive and asks "Was she beautiful?"... "Yes" you say. "Was that why you loved her?" "Nope." "BULLSHIT!" Scatha is angry because SHE is serena, and she obviously wears the mask because she has a disfiguring scar or something...(I wasn't paying attention in that cutscene...) She thinks that Rhue, er... Jeruh won't love her anymore because she is ugly, she starts a big speec about how guys only like pretty girls, and there is no such thing as love. Furthermore, before that conversation, Rhue tells her, "I'll mess up you're pretty hair!" and she gets all caught up on that...which might be ust because she has such "low self esteem" but then again, it might be becasue she wants Rhue to think she is beautiful. After their scuffle, she lets Rhue find his own way outta the pits, and then saves him by lowering the spike trap in his way. saying to herself ""Is it really him? Something is different about him other than his name."(Which also supports my Rhue is Jeruh theory.)

Honestly, this is a very old theory. It's hardly been brought up since E5 came out, and for good reason. Admittedly, the first time I played E3, of course I thought Scatha could be Serena as well (I never went for the shitty Kloe is Serena theories), but we know from factual evidence that Scatha knew Serena, Scatha knew whoever Rhue was (possibly Jeruh), and Scatha was Slade's sister. It doesn't seem likely at all anymore that Scatha is Serena.

[Flibbo]

you havn't put any spoilers in bold, just what you beleive to be true.

[Impossible]

Yeah, you bolded theories. Last time I checked, theories, some of which are unfounded or stupid, aren't "spoilers".

[MiDiMaN]

Everyone's shooting down your Scatha = Serena theory. Scatha is, in fact, a woman named Chasta, who is Slade's sister. So, no, Scatha is definitely not Serena. I'm just clarifying, like Impossible did. I'm just...clarifying again...Gah, I lost myself.

[RentACop]

Kloe thinks the PS is "Her" and that she "Hates her."

Que?

[nerx]

NO.
By the way, it's Cesta who hates Scatha and called her "her" Scatha was responsible for most of the shadows in Lide. Thanks for putting all these unoriginal theories all together under your name.

Edit: Theroies mean theories.

[ericfantasy17]

if you don't have any theories on who killed traziuns mother then for now just expect to find out that traziun killed her himself.

[Kyle]

That is highly unlikely

I'd be surprised to find out any ways Traziun could go after himself

[fwacho]

give the guy a break, he's put some interesting theories under the same heading.... he even credited other sources (what more cna you7 ask) even impossible's first reply took him seriously... I'm curioous what other notes he took....

[Djinnilord]

There's just something I noticed...in the flashback when Rhue and Serena are running (the one where all sprites are NOT black) Serena has brown hair. And I think (Not sure) that's before Traz asks which hair color she had. (By the way, I found out Traziun means "asshole"...")

[Ohtaryon]

The first flashback Rhue has is when he is in "Three Trees" settlement [the place with the Swiftfoot race], and he has the dream... all of the sprites there are in black, including Rhue and Serena. The second time he has a flashback is when he is telling Traziun of Serena... which is when Traziun asks about her hair.

[Non-Sequitur]

(By the way, I found out Traziun means "asshole"...")

Is this a joke? If not could you please tell me which language it means that in?
