Kaine black scrawl8/9/2023 ![]() However, the Replicants started to become self-aware, and that’s where problems started. ![]() Gestalt Nier, on the other hand, went on to help the organization with stabilizing other Gestalts and keeping them from relapsing. The Project Gestalt scientists then put Gestalt Yonah into hibernation and kept her there until the threat of the disease had passed, and she could be put back into her Replicant body. After fending off the Shades, we find out that Yonah had interacted with Grimoire Noir as well, causing her to start to relapse. ![]() Unlike the other survivors, Nier was able to retain his sanity and free will even while using Grimoire Noir, making him an original Gestalt in the eyes of the scientists. These relapsed Gestalts (later known as Shades) cornered them, and Nier had no choice but to use Grimoire Noir to fight them off. Nier and Yonah escaped and took refuge in an abandoned supermarket. Upon interacting with their copies of Grimoire Noir, many of the survivors turned into relapsed Gestalts that had no control over their own minds. However, the charity organization turned out to be a government science experiment to find the “original Gestalt.” To that end, the organization handed out books called Grimoire Noir to the survivors, which would allow them to wield magical powers. There were a few other survivors with them as well. Yonah was suffering from the disease, and Nier came to this center hoping to get some food and medicine for her. Furiae is soon abducted by the Empire, because of course she is.Ī little before the Legion’s defeat, however, a man (whom we’ll refer to as Nier) and his daughter Yonah sought help at a charity organization center in Shinjuku. Another important thing to note is that Caim’s sister, Furiae, is one of the four Seals preventing the Seeds of Destruction from appearing. By forming a Pact, Caim and the dragon Angelus become linked to one another and are rescued from their near-death states. After his parents are killed by the Empire, he is weakened, but he finds a red dragon on the brink of death near his castle. The Cult of the Watchers seek to destroy the Seals so that they can summon the Watchers into the human world.ĭrakengard features Caim as the main protagonist. The Seeds of Destruction are said to be tools left by the old gods, used to bring about the end of humanity. The war between the Union and the Empire is a terrifying one, as the Empire seeks to destroy the four Seals in Midgard in order to allow the Seeds of Destruction to appear in the world. We don’t know how relevant this is, but considering the fact that NieR: Automata has a LOT of androids, this could be an important detail to keep in the back of your mind for now.ĭuring Drakengard’s time period, Brother is long gone, and the Cult of the Watchers has a high priestess named Manah, but more on her later. It is revealed in Ending D that there are tons of androids exactly like Accord. We’re not entirely sure what her motives are, but it’s clear that Accord is tasked with monitoring the timelines of the Drakengard universe and recording events. She’s a mysterious girl who is later revealed to be an android. After unlocking the first couple of endings, we’re introduced to a character named Accord. There is one other important note about Drakengard 3. However, Drakengard 3 has a couple of other endings that could potentially tie into Drakengard’s story as well, and we’ll go over those later. Ending A is largely considered the canon ending to Drakengard 3, as it seems to lead into the events of Drakengard nicely. ![]() After Zero and Mikhail are dead, Brother goes on to establish control over the city, and forms the Cult of the Watchers. Brother is actually a clone of One, whom One created herself as a fail-safe in case anything happened to her. In Ending A, Zero kills One, but immediately after, she’s killed by Brother. All her attempts fail, and when Zero tried to commit suicide, the Flower retaliated by birthing five sisters who were named One, Two, Three, Four, and Five. However, after learning of the Flower’s intentions and how it could bring destruction to the world, she tried to remove it from her eye to see if she could kill it. After her rebirth, the girl threw away her old name and started calling herself Zero. By implanting itself in the girl’s eye, the girl was brought back to life and she gained the power of Song. The Flower gained power by latching on to a young sex worker who was on the brink of death. The story of Drakengard and NieR starts with this Flower. Either way, the important thing to take away here is the fact that the Flower is evil, and it wants to destroy the world. No one is really sure where the Flower actually came from or what it is exactly, except that it has to be the product of some form of black magic. The main antagonist of the Drakengard series isn’t some crazy, cackling villain instead, it’s a small white flower that looks innocuous to anyone who passes by.
