Welcome back to another A Realm Explored! It's been a bit! I felt bad spamming the sub since I had some other projects I shared here and didn't want to keep posting a bunch of things haha This time I looked at another Dawntrail dungeon - The Skydeep Cenote!
As usual, if you want to just see the video, you can watch it here.
Anyways that's all I have for you today! Hope you found something interesting or new that you didn't know about ^^ I didn't cover all the details of course but if you want to add your own interesting trivia I'd love to hear it. As always, thank you for reading!

- The opening mobs are really interesting as most are associated with death which is thematic due to how the Cenote is used by the Mamool Ja. The opening area is a place of remembrance for the blessed siblings which is why they have the monuments and gates that bear both heads. One thing I wasn't able to find significance for are these golden urns that are on both sides of the gates and also on pillars in this area. If anyone has insight I'd love to hear your thoughts.
- Something that caught me off guard midboss fight was that the first boss, Feather Ray, has a face and muscles on the bottom side of the body. I don't have any cool details about this I just was surprised and need more people to know about him.
- After the first boss, the dungeon aesthetic takes a very sharp turn as the you fall down a large elevator shaft. This was created by none other than the Yok Huy who of course were as always trying to build out and establish themselves across the whole continent. You can immediately see the scale shift with the blocks and walkways being more suited for their stature as they mined out space.
- Probably the coolest detail is how you can actually see right before the second boss how the area is essentially a workshop showing how the Yok Huy created stone quarriers to do their work for them. Even more interesting is they then built speaking stones that could then control the different machines and creations as shown by the speaking stone becoming the second boss of this dungeon by using the Firearms rig.
- The final area of this dungeon shows how the quarriers are taken over by what is stated is "an unknown force" though we know later that this is Electrope. I wasn't able to really figure out if anyone was actually controlling these machines or the significance so if anyone has some insight I would love to hear your thoughts!
Anyways that's all I have for you today! Hope you found something interesting or new that you didn't know about ^^ I didn't cover all the details of course but if you want to add your own interesting trivia I'd love to hear it. As always, thank you for reading!
