Savant Ascent and Savant Lore (Wild Theory Thread)
So, it was confirmed that the story of Savant-Ascent is canon to the happenings between Alchemist and Cult, namely how the Alchemist was exiled and sent to play on his Illuminatipiano in the cult album. For those of you who're not familiar with Savant's lore, he posted it a while ago. It went something like every hero killing each other:
Vario got crushed by Megaboy
Megaboy got taken care of by Syko and all the ISM guys
The Alchemist killed the ISM guys and ended up being exiled and had to play on the giant organ from cult for the rest of his life
The Orakel machine chose Super Sherrif for the role as new hero, who later starred in Protos.

Savant-Ascent gives an idea of how the Alchemist was exiled (the ending after defeating the samurai), but strangely brings back Vario, who, by lore, was meant to be dead since years maybe.

I know the first build of this game came out before the lore was official, but I love speculation and wild theories.So here's how I think all this could've happened:

After getting crushed by Megaboy, Ninur (who was still alive after Alchemist dropped, starring in ♥ in early 2013) performed some kind of ritual to seal Vario's spirit and powers away in the Philosopher's stone. If Ninur and the Alchemist knew each other, Ninur could've then given him the Stone, which amplified his magic powers, allowing him to create menacing monsters which are seen on the Alchemist cover. Sooner or later, though, the orb couldn't contain Vario's powers anymore and Vario broke free.

Upon defeating Vario, the Alchemist gets Vario's mask's power.
Upon collecting the Philosopher's Stone, the Alchemist gets all the power which was sealed away, "Ultimate Power".

What do you think? Do you have some wild theories to this aswell?

Although, out of all his Albums, where does Overkill fit in?

Overkill doesn't have a new character, if I'm not mistaken. Therefore it could be an album "describing" what happens during this game. "Big Ben" as a metaphor for the tower, "Overkill" is already in the game, etc...

Maybe, whenever Zion comes out, there might be a sequel/new update that explains how Protos relates to Zion and how the Super Sheriff goes out?
