All praise Grail
Maximum chills reading this. Truly epic.
That was my first thought. Just as the Incarnation mirrored the Eclipse, the Eclipse seems to be mirroring this event. Both visions must be entirely separate events, as Griffith pointed out. We don't see Skully in the foreground of the first vision with the God Hand and the women with the shoulder brand being held by a berserker armored Gaiseric is a curveball. Who is she? Definitely a connection to magic users and elves. Even the symbols on her clothes are things we've seen before at Floras.
Anyway what amazing episode. One of the more monumental ones that, like Fantasia and Casca's awakening, will go down as a milestone for those of us reading along currently. Another homerun for Miura.
What we're shown is clearly an Occultation ceremony, however... there's one important thing to notice. There is no Black Sun. Rather, what looms over the background is the Vortex of Souls. Visually strikingly similar. Makes me wonder if Eclipse ceremonies like the one we saw for Griffith are "mirrors" of that original one... Not unlike how his Incarnation ceremony was a mirror of the Eclipse.
