#fundy lore

LIVE

a recap of what happened during quackity’s big 04/22 lore stream.

  • The stream starts off with Quackity in the prison with Dream, having been interrogating him every day. Dream begs him to leave. Quackity wants him to write a letter to Technoblade, convincing him to visit him in the prison in return for a week without visiting. He agrees. 

Chapter 1

  • The words “Easy job. No innocents. Big reward. Easy money. Peaceful heist” flash on the screen. There are scenes of Foolish, firing a bow in a forest and destroying an area with lava.
  • Cuts to Quackity and Sam at a restaurant. They bicker over whether or not Sam hired a villager in the back to work there or not. Q discusses potential hires and wants to hire Foolish. Sam thinks it is a bad idea, as he had read some things about him in history books and that he is a bad guys. He once killed a lot of people on accident.
  • At his summer home, Foolish happily greets Quackity. He is technically still a part of Snowchester, but he is only loosely attached to countries. Foolish is still recovering from the Red Banquet.
  • Q asks him to join Las Nevadas, but he does not want to. He is happy where he is and does not like the chaos of Las Nevadas. Q grows very serious, explaining how he knows everything about his past.
  • Foolish says that he never caused wars. He accelerated it through the way of the sword, but once he saw how messy it was he pushed away from it.
  • Quackity offers to buy his summer home, but says that it is only worth a single diamond. It is an empty build without any purpose, just as Foolish is. 
  • He admits to letting Foolish die at the Banquet, hoping that he would then realize that no matter how peacefully he lived, he would need to become the feared, ruthless warrior he once was. He says that Foolish can either kill him and waste away, or join him in Las Nevadas. 

Chapter 2

  • A retro film plays, welcoming the viewer to the world of the Dream SMP, and introducing the creature Slime. It says that they are morphs, which can morph into any block and evolutionize through the adaptation to their environment over many years.
  • Quackity, dressed as a ninja with an elytra, destroys his restaurant that he met with Sam earlier. He plants TNT, but hears someone in the walls. Charlie Slimecicle is there and has apparently been living in his walls. He doesn’t know exactly what Charlie is, but he says that he “is definitely not a piece of slime that has crawled to the surface over hundreds of years, disguising himself as a person.
  • He is an accidental spy, having heard Quackity’s conversations about taking advantage over people gambling, Dream, and destroying a UFO. After considering killing him, he decides to make Charlie is own personal spy, convincing him that they are actually friends.

Flashback to one week before the Red Banquet.

  • Sam and Quackity want to look for Purpled to ask him to join Las Nevadas. He has not been there for a long time and will likely only come back for a job.
  • Quackity sneaks into the UFO and fills it with TNT. Suddenly, Purpled appears in front of him and asks him for a reason not to kill him.  Quackity convinces him to work with him during the Red Banquet, after showing his Las Nevadas.
  • After the Red Banquet, he meets again with Purpled, thanking him for his help. After giving him his payment, he says that he has one more thing for him. He pulls a lever, and the UFO explodes in the sky.
  • Purpled is angry. Quackity says that the UFO was the only thing that shows that he was a part of the server, and now it is gone. He has two choices: kill him, take the money and run away, or join Las Nevadas and have all the money he would ever need. Purpled leaves instead.

Chapter 4:

  • Fundy is at his home, saying that everything is okay and that it is a new chapter for him. He goes to bed, but when he wakes up, he is in the desert and in his dream state again. He goes back inside, hoping that when he opens the door again he would be in the real world. Instead, Quackity is outside his door.
  • He doesn’t know how it is possible for Quackity to be there, but he follows him. He is a hard person to find. They walk across the desert, and are in a destroyed L’Manburg (during Tubbo’s reign). The buildings are destroyed and covered in sand. The two reminisce on the world, happy and nostalgic, Q saying that they have always been there, him and Fundy.
  • Quackity turns serious, saying that none of it ever mattered. That Fundy doesn’t matter, along with all of the structures that they built together that are now destroyed. He tries to convince Fundy to join him in L’Manburg, to give him the tools that he needs to succeed. He gives him 10 seconds to decide and counts down. As he gets to 1, Fundy runs at him and Quackity yells his name.
  • He wakes up in the real world, to Quackity outside of his house, saying his name.

End

  • Wilbur’s point of view. He reads through the book that Quackity left him before he was brought back to life. He calls him his kinsman and says that they went through a lot together. He goes to Las Nevadas and meets Quackity.

of all things I gotta say, I wasn’t expecting to get sally the salmon lore today

Hot take: c!fundy should’ve been the one to burn the lmantree.

I don’t know if it was just me but Niki burning the tree was kind of underwhelming. Seeing it for the first time in her pov, it just didn’t seem right. I literally felt nothing, which was upsetting because I wanted to feel something. But then I thought about Fundy, who was going through a similar arc as Niki. And then it hit me:

The tree has stuck around since the first war for independence, it may have even been there since Fundy was born (Fundy was canonically born there) and could have seen him grow up.

Fundy was supposed to inherit L’manburg. He was set to be the next ruler/president until the elections was set up. And then L’manburg blew up, so Fundy tried to help rebuild it again, but of course, it was inevitable that L’manburg would be destroyed for good.

But really, what has L’manburg done for Fundy? This was the country he was born in. He was set to inherit it, but was cast aside, belittled and not taken seriously by anyone, the only shred of respect for him was only because he was the president’s son. He had died for this country and its independence, and this is what he got in return?

The electrons happen, and again, he wasn’t taken seriously at first. When he joined Schlatt as a spy, everyone turned on him (though for good reason obviously), he had no one to turn too, but that was probably a good thing he didn’t tell anyone, he could’ve ended up like Tubbo. But when he finally revealed himself… his father didn’t care. Wilbur told him he despised him. So all that was essentially for nothing.

Fundy kind of lost hope, lost his will to defend his country. Despite the many attempts to help, people ignored him. He was completely alone, his father dead, mother who knows where, grandfather despises him, friendships broken, he has nothing to lose. 

By burning down L’mantree, he would essentially let go of his ties to L’manburg, which he was connected to as it’s first born citizen, a founding and original member and future leader (though that never came to pass), and to his father, who made the country and promised he will inherit it one day. He went through so much for his country, and he got barely anything in return. No respect, no authority, no family. 

(also the fact that 3/5 of the original members would say the iconic line would’ve been cool

made this when Fundy lore dropped and forgot to post it
