Monster Hunter World Lore - The Great Dragon war, The Fatalis & the destruction of Schrade! 

Anyone else find the legend of Fatalis legitimately chilling?

Smaug: I am fire, I am death! Fatalis: That's the cutest shit I've ever heard

In lore it states that Dire Miralis has a heart that beats forever. Even after death. It can also completely regenerate from it's heart if that heart is not destroyed

Who would win Fatalis the most powerful monster in the world Or A couple of bois that want the best gear

im loving this lore. i can't wait to hear how the Deviljho came into being. Jho probably was like, "I ate my way to existence, what's your excuse for living?"

I forget how badass Fatalis actually is. Melting his victims to create his own black armor, mocking them at the same time by doing exactly what they did. Damn boi

Best part of Fatalis is that he comes in three unique flavors: death, volcanic death, and "Boy, you a dead man now!"

Fittingly the description of Fatalis’ armor “killing the wearer slowly” sounds like how Safi’s armor damages you while you attack, maybe if Fatalis is added to World they might give its gear a similar feature

Don’t mind me. Just back again after watching the final MHW dev diary.

Byf my guy, this vid is about to get a LOT of traffic. Fatalis has returned with a vengence.

So if the story is to be believed. The hunters who wear the armor of the fatalis are slowly turned into the same dragon they slew and turn on their fellow hunters.

Fatalis still scares me atfer 10+ years I been playing but I miss him

Is it me or does the Dire Miralis seem like a seige weapon. Immense defence, mortar like cannons, environmental danger (mass extinction). It's like something that specifically evolved to be a weapon

To think that black fatalis is not even the strongest fatalis out of the three types of fatalis can't wait to see people first fight white fatalis

2 things i love about this, LORE and DRAGON

Black dragons can only be describe with one word: calamity

I lost two brain cells when you shot a flash pod at the Tzitzi-ya-ku

"See you in the next episode." _OP will surely deliver. Let's just wait._

Wow, I always got that Fatalis was a scary dragon from the first game, but Fatalis lore is way more terrifying than I thought.

Plays insect glaive Greatsword user mounts

I could sense a bunch of OG monster hunter fans puffing out their chests proud they killed that monster.

Goosebumps, hearing the lore of my childhood by a professional is unreal, can’t get enough!

I hate that these wonderful monster hunter lore videos stopped. I really wish they would come back.

Learning about the ancient civilizations and how they lived in peace with other elder dragons and monsters makes me think deeply about all the other series. Remember MH stories and how people lived in harmony with other monsters and trained them and such what if that took place pre or during the begging of the great dragon war? It wouldn't be such a bad theory to think of but mainly I was thinking the elder dragons aren't just mindless beast now are they if they were able to coordinate and pull off an attack on an ancient civilizations they must be smart and have some form of communication with one another. So I thought of this that when the dragons figured out that humans were killing them off to make a super weapon all the elder dragons even Kushala Teo and Chem all gathered to "Talk" about how the humans were making weapons from them some where against attacking the humans while others where pro attacking them. So after the dragon war was over and series such as mh4u had dragons like Kushala and Teostra that were still threats the guild wanted extinguished those monsters were more aggressive and ready to attack on site while in world a few of them like Kushala Val and Kirin were more passive and didn't attack you as much unless you provoked them. So what I'm thinking is the ones who are more passive in world still think they can try to live in Harmony with humans and don't need to fight them while monsters like Teostra Nergi and Lunastra (debatable) all still hated humans and wanted to kill them off like they did them thousands of years ago and with the new world being the place old elders go to die and Xeno being made from the energy of those elders possibly as a new weapon to combat humans it could make sense but it's jusy a theory I just made from watching this video

Who is here after Fatalis reveal for MHW:I ?

do the lore of the frenzy virus or yama and the ancient tower.

Thank you for the MH lore...thank you Byf and all those who helped and supported you to make this happen. As a die-hard fan seeing all of this wondrous MH content as of late, I appreciate your enthusiasm, dedication to your work, and contribution to the community.

I think Fatalis is especially chilling because he's an adaptation of our own ancient dragon myths which speak to an organic, maybe real, fear of an awesome vengeful creature of destruction

So Fatalis is on a long hunt to craft gear made of mankind. I can totally relate.

if fatalis wears dead humans as its armor, then us using fatalis as armor means we are also using dead humans as armor. Maybe thats why hunters that wear it hear voices, its not the dragon we are using as armors but the bodies of our dead comrades. Creepy right, fuck this dragon for real.

I love how we were all disappointed that Safi wasn't a black dragon so capcom was like "aight heres two"

After hearing Fatalis is coming to MHW and listening to the legend of the black dragon itself and the destruction of Castle Schrade, I honestly couldn't be more terrified/excited to go against this brute force of nature!

Very good video,well put together and your presentation is on point with the vibe,really enjoyed it bro keep it up.

Wow! MHW is my first MH game but its lore is chilling good.

Yo byf, still wait’n on that wyverian vid. Can we get an update on that?

Been playing since MH1. Nice to know that after all these years, I can still learn new things. Monster hunter is s beautiful world. It's where i grew up. There is so much here to learn and see. Beyond the monsters and the quest. Everything from the quirky palicos to the butt clenching fights, all of it is worth exploring. Don't worry too much about the lore. The main thing is that you embrace this world. It has so much charm and little details tht can be missed if you focus too much. I watched all your videos and am a big fan. You opened my eyes to so much of destiny's inner content and back story. You, in alot of ways, was the narrator of an entire world. But now, you've stepped into a brand new world. A world tht I've been in love with for as long as I can remember. And I can promise you that you won't find a more devoted player base. We love this game. We want it to get big. For far too long MH has been in the shadow of more popular western titles. And finally it's getting the love it deserves and I couldn't be happier. And I hope your content can pull even more hunters to this world. To sum things up, welcome to the world if Monster Hunter! It's a wonderful series and I hope tht it will bring you years of enjoyment and laughs as it has me and my fellow veteran hunters who have been here since forever. Keep up the good work Byf!

Yet white fatalis is my favorite fight in 4u. Also hope this means you will say why hunters never go in parties greater than 4 in this next video. Besides limitations from when monster hunter was first made. I mean the in game lore as to why they only go as 4 and no more.

Just now finding out that Byf does MH and Destiny lore and my day is now made

I’d love to see what you can do with Alatreons Lore. I mean, the name of his quest was “Where gods fear to tread”. Would probably make for a Video that’s just as awesome and compelling as this one. But thats just me talking ^^

So i guess Alatreon is another one of those black dragons?

But fatalis looks NOTHING like a wyvern, looks like a TRUE dragon.

I’m very late to this series, but this is something I would like to see comeback.

Fatalis: "i am the king of all monsters" Paratoad: "that was so funny i forgot to laugh"

Just remember this lore makes me now realize. No matter how man my times we kill him, no matter how many years it takes, we are destined to perish for the mistakes we have done. For he is the darkness that will scorch us with his hellfire, and smite us with his crimson lightnin. He his our judgement, our death, our *Fate*.

Nice video Byf. Enjoying finding out what all I missed from the earlier monster hunter games.

Please don't give up on this series. I've been researching the lore for awhile although different aspects of it. All references I've read on fatalis are absolutely on point in this video. I was expecting "the legend of fatalis" as and it's second coming in this video though. There is a legend that speaks about a second coming of fatalis, a fatalis with "black flame" that engulfs the world. A fatalis with flame and dragon element that can heal itself. Similar to that of the fatalis weapon theat restores itself in pokke

This was beautifully epic! Great job as always Byf! Love your content!

Man, I love the lore of this world. If we could get a game that is based in the ancient civilization I can only imagine what all the weapons would look like and all the new monsters there would be. What we see is their evolved form, we could see a pre-evolution Rathalos.

Could you talk in a future video about monster titles like ''Black Dragons'', 'Unknown Species''(Like Mi Ru, Black Rathian and Gore Magala) and rare subspecies like Abyssal Lagiacrus and Silver Rathalos? Talking about why they are so different compared to others of their own species and name a few of them.

Amazing lore video Byf, thanks again. Being new to the series with world its amazing to listen to the lore

3:38 someone tried to flash the flash king/queen haha. As always, I LOVE your content! Keep it up bud

Now would be a good time to finish that part three my guy. One month till big daddy dragon returns.

Dalmadur dire maralis altreon and fatalis, is that all the black dragons?

Love this series, was a avid D2 lore watcher not player but it's just not the same once Monster Hunter was released seeing as how I play MHW on top of watching the amazingly stunning lore videos you do. Your voice is so epic, I wish you would voice over documentaries

Well, Fatalis is part of Monster Hunter World as of October 1st, 2020. Thank you for the lore!

Rajang: finally a worthy opponent Our battle will be legendary!!!

You remind me of Vaati

Your story telling has so much substance, I can't wait to hear you read more MH lore.

Awesome video, and Im glad you're talking about monsters not yet shown in World. Can this extend to your profile videos? I think it would be of great interest for the newcomers who watch these vids to know how extensive the Monster roster has been up to this point, and it will keep them excited for more.

Awwww yeah, the closest thing Monster Hunter has to an actual villain, the Fatalis! Oh, and I would suggest using the L2+R2 attack to mark a target for your bug to auto-attack after you fill up your three juice bars. You'd be surprised how much damage that little guy will add on while you're doing your regular attacks with IG!

Back in MHFU it took actual 2 real life hours to kill a fatalis

Im actually working on a monster hunter project for school and considering I didn’t play the older games this video really does help so thank you man for making this

Seeing this 1yr later and never knew you posted MH stuff. This is awesome!

So... where is the next part of the lore then?

Kind of funny after two years since this video was made fatalis is the last monster that gets put in monster hunter world/iceborne lol

Glad you made the move to this game. I've followed your lore for a while and i just started this and love it.

Great piece of Monster Hunter lore with equally great presentation. GJ Byf!

That Was Amazing

Equal dragon weapons aren’t actually canon

Incredible vid Byf, i've read up on almost everything to do with MH and seeing you tell it like a BBC documentary is wonderfull. You certainly have the vocal skill to be discussing these things as it's quite calming to see things from the good old Monster Hunter's be retold. Keep up the great work.👍

I could listen to your voice all day long bud. Keep up the awesome work

I hope you return to Monster Hunter some day. Your delivery, voice, and editing skills really sell how dark this series can be sometimes.

when is the next lore, my friend?

Who is here after the Fatalis trailer?

Keep up the good work on your lore videos Byf.

Amazing. Simply amazing. You have an impeccable storytelling ability Byf.

Something i find curious: In the old world, there are ruins everywhere and you can easily find them. In the new world, there are none. Just some food for thought.

The equal dragon weapon was humanity's tool that broke the balance of nature. I like to think of Alatreon as an elder dragon, that is just that. Something that breaks the balance of nature, and is beyond even Fatalis. Not only because it is viewed in similar regard as the Fatalis and its weapons and armor share similar stories, but because it almost seems more than just a natural disaster beast. It possesses multiple elements to the point where it is unstable and can hardly control its power, beyond fits of pure rage. It can make it thunder and rain spikes of ice twice the size of a person, in the middle of a volcano. It doesn't just control the weather intentionally, its mood can effect the weather. It can cause multiple different kinds of natural disasters in a whim, and seems to possess traits from numerous other elder dragons. And I love that about him. Fatalis seems to be viewed as more pure evil. Whilst Alatreon, is viewed as something unnatural, abhorrent, and terrifying. There are elder dragons that have similar powers to control the weather like it, like Amatsu. But Amatsu is viewed with much more reverance and respect. Like a wrathful, yet holy god. Alatreon feels like the opposite to that. A mad, disturbed being that is an afront to even the gods themselves.The embodiment of chaos and conflict. Fitting given that in its past lore, its described as having wings that can shine like the rising sun, and darken to a shade blacker than the abyss. One of his quests in the past monster hunter games was named quite literally, Where Gods Fear To Tread. Alatreon will always be my favorite.

This was amazing!!! I felt chills! Great work!!! :D

Glad to see you in the MHW byf. Been listening to your destiny lores for a long time - big fan.

Wait that music playing in the background is from elder dragon Ceadus from Tri right?

I want to see Fatalis Trio and Alatreon, damn, Black Dragons in general, in MHW, and I want them to have a turf war with Nergigante and kick his spiky butt (I mean, he can't stand a chance against them)

More monster hunter lore videos please Byf! Your lore explanations are second to none.

Woow both the story and quality of the video are epic thanks for the video byf

FATALIS IN WORLD BOIS

Guessing there was never a part 3?

That is a terrifying legend. Please, release more videos!

Keep up the good work man these are amazing and I hope that you go into detail of the weapons as well

..i didn't think we had more other than "these creatures are dangerous, go blow them to he'll and wear pieces of them as armor!"

Hunters: *wear monster skin to defend against attacks* Fatalis: *wears human skin to spite humans* Humans: YoU cAn’T dO tHaT!!.!

*claps* That was amazing! I felt so immersed into the video, very good story telling skills!

Had no idea Byf did Monster hunter lore this is the best channel you RU-vid

Can you do Gogmazios next?

Whew, loved the video byf! I do want to know though, did you play MH3U at all to get to Dire Miralis? If you haven't you should really consider doing so, as it is a great Monster Hunter game and would not be terribly hard to stream

Your voice is so nice to listen to. Its great for the narration!

Legiana and odagaron are probably my fav monsters

*Plays the kinsect like a pro* *Tries to flash Titzi* *Face palm*

So what happened to the continuation of the lore homie? Where’d that project go?

Not gonna lie to you chief, that was amazing. I never knew the game I loved so much had such chilling lore. Thank you.

i couldnt have done it better myself. Bravo Byf, bravo! 👏
