Topic: The official "Finding Castlevania in Lords of Shadow" thread....

Not sure if that was intentional. The story they based the name of Albus' gun and an attack or two off of has nothing to do with any lost cities or anything. If it was an intentional reference, its an Aeon the bake and Aeon the time traveler level of pointless.

I still wonder if Aeon the chef wasn't supposed to be named "Ian" and the localization people were just dumb. But the rest of the game has good English, so I dunno.

Am I crazy, or do I remember the Bernhard castle referred to in some of those scrolls as the "Demon's castle" or "Demonic castle"?

Well, I do remember a scroll in the castle saying that it seemed to be constantly changing making it impossible to map out.  It pretty much is that its a creature of chaos.  Plus, there is one that states that the Bernard family summoned a powerful demon that is trapped in the castle.

A Demon who's ass you firmly kick. So what I'm wondering now is, if TFO was giving the castle it's shape changing abilities due to his possession of it, how is the castle going to be a "creature of chaos" now? Unless TFO had nothing to do with the castles chaotic manifestations in the first place. I'm also wondering if the sleeping Leviathan that you hear about in Reverie will come into play in the next game.

Well, nothing ever said that TFO was the only demon the Bernhard family messed with.  So, it's a possibility.

Maybe there is a demon bonded to the castle, giving it it's creature of chaos-ness?

Yeah, but which one?  Is it because of the TFO, who is imprisoned in the dimentional rift, Leviethon, or a different demon?  I doubt we will ever find out unless Gabriel returns to the castle in the sequel as its new master.

Maybe Chaos? Chaos had physical form in AoS, Perhaps he can be reimagined in this continuity, as a demon bonded to the castle or something.

This was my guess. If they're going by Paradise Lost (and judging from Satan's speech/mythos/appearance, they are), Chaos and Night are separate beings in a different part of the universe, so it's very likely Dracula would pair with someone of equal or greater power than Ol' Scratch.

That's be interesting to see how they'd make Chaos appear in a LoS sequel.

This assumes that Chaos will appear in this storyline.  We don't know for sure yet.  Either way, I can't wait to see what happens next.

After beating Satan with the help of Zobek, Dracula overcomes Chaos and becomes the true master of Castlevania. Boom!

Yeah, but then you'd have the "true" Castlevania only appearing in todays technologically advanced world.  Would kill any ideas for sequels based between the end of LoS and the epilogue.

I have to bring this topic back. I was playing the crow witch chapters, and I realized something that seemed familiar. When the tower starts to crumble, Pan appears in horse form, and rides Gabriel across a long collapsing bridge.

Sound familiar?

I was reminded of many classicvania's stage of "walk across the collapsing bridge while we throw shit at you"

[A-Yty]

Wow, your first few there are already grasping at straws. I'll consider this list just full of BS then.

Indeed.

that added with the start of SoTN where Maria/ Richter ride a horse.
