Speculation Sohso

You have no proof AT ALL that he didn't mean he lied about the relevance thing. At all.

 

I think Sohso is alive, but I don't think he'll be part of this quest.
Why?
Yahya is found in the province of Wynn
Nonon is in the Ocean
Mehme was found in the province of Gavel
So it would make sense that Sohso made it to the province of Fruma!
They could have easily moved Rooster island and instead made it Rooster farm, and put it in Wynn or Gavel
...
But they didn't

However, if this theory is correct and Sohso made it out of the Ocean without getting shipwrecked, then that means Sohso is alive, yet inaccessible.

 

Here is my theory about the brothers:

(And yes by the way I have posted it before but I feel like it is relevant to bring it up again.)

The item lore on "Pure" kind of makes it obvious that it is from the ??? meteors. Didn't we all know that part? I suspect that while experimenting they themselves created the wand out of it which drove them insane. Since Mehme has a base inside the a meteor we know they can very well carve out a space into it and thus can probably form a wand. The reason I think the wand drove them insane instead of the actual meteor is because they probably wouldn't have experimented with it if that were the case unless it took effect over time. However with the wand theory has more reason than the other just taking effect over time theory because if they tested the wand they would be actively unleashing the magic instead of just having it sit there like the rock they Mehme has his base in. Maybe both effected their metal state with the rock slowly effecting them and the wand speeding it up when used.

A problem with wand theory is how the player would be able to use it if that was the case. It may be possible that they had studied it for a while before going insane since there is a pretty good base set up and thus the player is, technically going insane while using it. Or maybe the player is immune to the effects having probably quite a lot of points in the intelligence stat. They could explain why Mehme seemed to have stayed fairly sane while his brothers went crazy or Mehme could have done something to take away some of it's power after seeing his brothers go insane.

Sohso however escaped to Furma/Corkus and being one of the "greatest minds of our time" had some amount of power for a new life since the province is advanced compared from the other provinces and thus needs smart people to help with it's advancements. However if Corkus/Furma if a human province like the changelog said Sohso could have had trouble. Maybe though Sohso is in the Corkus part of Furma since they seem more likely to accept a villager. Corkus, the land where racism doesn't exist. Anyway I also think that when Sohso left probably looking for a new life Sohso wasn't driven insane as the text from purple and blue says, "Three of the greatest minds of our time were driven mad" and not "Four of the greatest minds of our time were driven mad" or "The greatest minds of our time were driven mad" so I think Sohso is currently helping advance the province even further.

I do not think Sohso has anything to do with the ??? as Furma but I figured I'd post the lore anyway.

 

they didn't say the quest has nothing to do with thee old one, they said the solution has nothing to do with the old one.

 

Sohso is the Seaskipper Captain

 

No he isn't why would you think that? It makes absolutely no sense at all.

 

Because he has brothers
I disagree with Sohso being the Seaskipper Captain but it is an interesting theory. I mean, if they both have brothers, then it must be the same person!

 

A LOT OF PEOPLE have brothers.

 

My post was sarcasm and I can't tell if you're post is acknowledging it or not noticing it because the internet and it's lack of speech patterns

 

I think u right

 

Sohso is an easteregg of old ???.
there were signs saying he moved to fruma
