WIKI WAKE UP

Does anyone here, definitively use magic?

I've found some information about the game's world and backstory here and I'm curious as to where you got it.

I've owned a copy of Brutal Legend ever since it came out and have played it many times. But in all these years I've never known what Lionwhyte and the Coil were getting out of the mines or Ophelia named the Drowning Doom after what happened to her parents until today.

So how is it you know? Was it mentioned in the art book? In some other official text? Or did I just miss something in the game? Because I'd hate to think you are just making it up.

By the way, I love this game and it's lore but, I think you'll agree, it's delivery of backstory and world building could have been much better.

I know, many many years ago we played this game and I was pretty convinced that the metal world was another strange world, I mean, it was clear for me that it was another world where we go when we die, in case of Eddie Riggs, because he was "called" by Ormagöden.

I'm playing the game again on Xbox360 for the achievements, by the way, I got the viral achievement and the viral trophy on PS3 if anyone needs help, and I was shocked because at the very beginning we can hear Lars, the resistance leader, and his sister, talking about Ormagöden as the "Destryoer of the Ancient World". So, my theory is this:

When Eddie Riggs died and awoke Ormagöden, this was still the same world, then, Ormagöden literatelly killed almost the entire world as we know it and the METAL ERA began, including the fact that people survived somehow and, for some reason, begin to tell stories. One prophecy said that Eddie Riggs will come and save the world. So, maybe one thousand years had passed when we play as Eddie Riggs.What do you think?
