How does the gargantuan gloom even consume void

How do you consume the all consuming substance

They were saving her as a snack for later

she must have been working hard, it is sad she never thought to mix silk weapon with it to make more potent

That’s why the void got upset when we stole the snack from it

What if we just pulled one of those down

it loves its comfort zone

And stretched it into the abyss

The void would just climb up it and consume her cocoon instead

One of the literal functions of the needolin is revealing the strands that haunt pharloom

but i don't see it very feasible

Yes but my point is that it's likely that different species vary in lifespan.

Emilitia doesn't look that different from any other bug we've killed, or at the very least she doesn't look to be from another species compared to Ogrim.

So to me, its weird that Emi so much older than Elderbug, while looking relatively young by comparison

Maybe we don’t even need to string the silk down into the abyss

yeah the colosseum fighters are infected theyre just going about their lives as they were before because that’s what the infected do

i don't think they are. if there are combatants who aren't infected (ones in the rest area) then i don't see why the spectators would be, especially given they have vocal reactions to events and they care about geo n giving rewards n whatnot (plus none of them have any orange glow)

but on serious note, issue with my hypothetical that is isn't organized, if defeating GMS strategy was organized it would likely include Snare Setter which is somewhat important part and other other thing i see being part of snare other that void is wisp i guess, Snare uses soul to create wisps i guess, with weakening mechanisms of other things, who knows maybe in that case Muckmaggots or other substances can help

Aren’t there things like “Weaver in 1/8 part” in a room in the upper most area of the citadel? Which implies not all Weavers are infertile? Am I gong insane?

Then you tell to me about Weaver descendants

I don’t know what to tell you, it’s right fucking there man. It’s not even in like an update, they added that shit.

Day one.

frosty gate

Yeah, I know

#

I am unique, you see. My mothers shared the curse of their tribe, to conceive a child is a painful, near impossible task.

#

But this has also been here DAY ONE

foggy stratus
#

It’s near impossible, not fully impossible.

frosty gate
#

To me it makes sense that there are more and they somehow succeeded on creating more Weavers

#

But Little Weavers are like ? ? ? ? ?

foggy stratus
#

The only thing that links them to Weavers is their name and appearance. Could just be genetically modified spiders. I wouldn’t put it past the Weavers to experiment on the Deepnest natives.

frosty gate
#

I'm guessing the Weavers managed to reproduce, but Little Weavers come in quantities

frosty gate
#

I also don't put it past Weavers to experiment with the Spiders

foggy stratus
#

Yeah I’m going with the idea that the Weavers experimented on native spiders of Deepnest and turned them into the Little Weavers.

frosty gate
#

That makes sense to me, but the thing with theorizing over Retcons is that it doesn't stop them from being retcons

#

Not until we get confirmation

#

Actually any info on Mask Makers we got from Silksong is a Retcon by Addition

#

Although I'm inclined to not add it

#

Since it doesn't really fill any gap

#

I feel I gotta make that distinction

near jasper

How do silkeaters work

frosty gate

In lore? They make no real sense using their description in game

Unless the eat like a stand of Silk connected to the cocoon and through that they bring the entire cocoon

Imma be real they're less immersive than Jiji and her shit

I’m just gonna invoke the “It takes place in a noncanon interaction so we can just not pay attention to it” card tbh.

Thats not even the worst part

How are silkeaters not haunted

foggy stratus

Even if they are, it doesn't matter much

In fact, being Haunted would probably support a theory about them using the Haunting to find our Coccoon or something

How would they have time to evolve that

frosty gate

Silk isn't recent

near jasper
#

The haunting is

frosty gate
#

Wait you're saying this because of the possible theory I said

foggy stratus
# frosty gate Yes, but the events and abilities of those said non canon instances aren't non c...

Ok, let’s use Jiji summoning TK’s Shade for instance. Jiji says they “peer into you” to search for your regrets. Meaning they need the person present. Meaning if said person is dead they can’t find the regrets. Meaning that Jiji summoning the Shade requires TK to be present to find their Shade. As such, summoning the Shade isn’t canon because it requires something that cannot happen within the canon of the game, that being TK being present after their death.

near jasper
#

They should scrap sea of sorrow for a styx game

frosty gate
#

I won't die on this hill, but I wanna follow that line of thought.

If Silkeaters can use the Haunting to find our Coccoon and bring it to us, maybe they didn't evolve but they are just using their innate ability to sense silk to bring it over to us

#

How Hornet figure that shit out?

#

Idk

frosty gate
foggy stratus
#

The only instance of it happening happens, and I understand this may be a little difficult to understand, in a noncanon interaction. I just explained why it isn’t canon and you literally just said “yeah but no”.

frosty gate
#

Sula can summon a whole Void aberration, meaning that Jiji's ability to summon Void being, in this case a Shade, isn't non canon

foggy stratus

#

The Ability exists, she just doesn't use it in a canon instance

Buigger horns and head, thats about it

Does Sula have Jiji’s freakish arms?

frosty gate
#

That she doesn't, but as we've seen in canon bug evolution, things change as they mature

Same Species, Cardi is just old

And the Pontiff, presumably older than Cardi, is even bigger than Cardi

Tbh I don’t think Scrounge is the same species as the Vault Keepers. It’s always just been way too different from the others to make sense for me.

i was going through the mossbag vid on sk and states that the citadel needed pilgrims to maintain the song but why would the citadel brainwash the skirms into judges to bash down the "unworthy" pilgrims they meet, won't this contradicts the lore on weavers needing more pilgrims on mantain the song as the judges lowers the amount of pilgrims arrive in the citadel

I mean looking at them they are really similar. And if they aren't the exact same species they are defently related, this could be a pharlid situation where there are 2 different but very similar species in the same kingdom.

#

So yeah

near jasper
finite wind
#

That's only the ones we see

#

But there are other captured bugs in the slab

#

So more of them had to go out

finite wind
near jasper
#

And some in the area directly beside their home

finite wind
# near jasper One in ducts

The flies did not randomly spawn in the right most areas whilst being in one of the left most areas you know

#

They had to go there

near jasper
#

If someone gets to songclave they should never have met a fly in the first place

near jasper
finite wind
near jasper
#

We see like 4 outside the slab

finite wind
# near jasper ?

You say that enclave bugs didn't see flies as an argument that there couldn't be many flies out there, while there are very few bugs in enclave

finite wind
#

Again, they flies have to have crossed multiple areas to get where they sre

#

And there are multiple captured bugs

#

Heck, even grindle gets captured

near jasper
finite wind
unique tangle
#

yknow why were the songclave bugs even so bothered by broodmother in the first place

#

i dont think she was hurting nobody like skull tyrant or beastfly

#

they just heard a mother in grief and said "go kill her"

dire lynx
near jasper
#

"Horrible cries have been heard from that prison beside the Citadel. What profanities must be happening within to cause such an awful sound?" Is everything they wrote

unique tangle
near jasper
unique tangle
#

they put it in the fine print

unique tangle
marble oasis
unique tangle
#

so murder was just fully hornet's decision then

near jasper
#

Yeah

#

The wish was just kinda asking if they could shut the thing in the slab up so people could explore quietly

unique tangle
#

but wait no the quest is listed as a grand hunt quest

#

if they didnt want hornet to kill broodmother then why not put it as a wayfarer

#

they were egging her on

near jasper
marble oasis
#

“Worry not dear residents I shall make sure these profanities cease”
“By calming the beast down and resolving the cause of its pain and misery?”
“…Yes”

dire lynx

dire lynx
#

we were talking about warden flies, slab is implied

unique tangle
#

so this prison which is designed in the same style as the slab

marble oasis
#

Who put him in there if not for the Wardenflies

unique tangle
#

run by the citadel

#

is not run by the wardens

#

of the citadel

marble oasis
#

What other judicial body is there (not counting craws)

near jasper
finite wind
unique tangle
#

is that what youre saying

finite wind
#

Or any of the flies for the matter

finite wind
marble oasis
#

We HAD to kill her

#

We just had to

finite wind
#

Why wouldn't she

marble oasis
marble oasis
finite wind
#

Yes

unique tangle
#

what other group of the citadel which works as the wardens and jailers and happen to also explicitly be shown to travel accross the kingdom would capture grindle and throw him in that jail cell also operated and owned by the citadel

near jasper
#

What do you think songclave did with the eyeball hornet stole from the broodmother

dire lynx
#

there is literally no evidence of flies in the random marrow prison

near jasper
#

Fly eye stew

#

With muck roach gut

#

Shit im getting sent to sinners road

unique tangle
#

how could i not realize

marble oasis
#

Well they capture people and travel outside of the citadel

#

Don’t shoot the messenger

unique tangle
#

they seem to be moreso sent on out-of-pharloom weaver capture missions only, we dont really see them roaming within pharloom looking for criminals

marble oasis
#

I still think it’s flies

#

MEBI thinks it’s craws though

finite wind
#

Btw killing green prince is a good thing

unique tangle
#

its definitely the flies

unique tangle
finite wind
#

His depressed ass would have died anyways and verdania will grow again from his dead body

unique tangle
#

the citadel branded and built jail... run by some farmer's pests?

finite wind
#

Also killing him lets you spare karmelita

marble oasis
unique tangle
#

does he know the craw summons can only appear in the few areas adjacent to greymoor

#

(the marrow is not one such area)

marble oasis
#

I don’t think that’s true

#

Okay it is

unique tangle
#

it is true, the summons can only appear in bellhart, wisp thicket, far fields, and sinners road

marble oasis
#

But they seem to have been following Hornet’s whole adventure

unique tangle
#

and hunters march i think

marble oasis
#

They know she brought the dark

marble oasis
unique tangle
#

i said far fields

marble oasis
#

Bilewater too though which is crazy

marble oasis
#

Not HM

unique tangle
#

ah

unique tangle
#

but even if they do have craws following hornet sneakily throughout her journey then thats just craws following her

marble oasis
unique tangle
#

idk if that means anything towards the craws running a punitive system that rivals the citadel's

marble oasis
#

a fair few of them i’m like tc who never thought about any of that

unique tangle
#

even if the conclusions are kinda

#

out there

#

this one's kinda crazy even in comparison i think

marble oasis
#

The rationale is sinners road is also craws because of the emblem

#

which THAT idk about

#

the sinners road emblem is different enough to the craw juror headpieces

unique tangle
#

yeah ig if we ignore that the emblem is only kinda loosely similar

edgy nebula
unique tangle
#

i do agree the sinner's road emblem is unexplained tho

#

we dont rlly see it anywhere else

#

but

marble oasis
edgy nebula
unique tangle
#

i dont think its the craws lol

And it’s not like it’s holy

#

Cogwork defenders have it and the others don’t

unique tangle

cogwork defenders dont have it

sweet thunder
edgy nebula
#

in that case its probably just some ambiguous citadel thinv

wispy orchid
#

?

#

except for the other guards

#

i thought they were the only ones

#

but arent they canonically weaker anyways

unique tangle
#

in her case its supposed to invoke sun imagery

#

why would the rising/setting sun be the symbol of sinner's road

wispy orchid
#

hi @worn sigil

hows ur day

lets talk

the ones that are active dont

isnt that

like

the alternative

unique tangle
#

i honestly feel like its a cut design choice

wispy orchid

or smth?

but i think

unique tangle
#

also loving this response time rn

??????

the canon ending

is the

best

cuz

brochacho

wispy orchid

it made sense

#

and

it was happy

why cant this kid type everything in one sentence

thats just

how i

dont judge

me

unique tangle

and some dont

marble oasis
#

oh yeah lol

graceful grail
#

Question, What causes Horn Growth??

unique tangle
#

the enemies dont, i think its just a cut design choice by TC and they just forgot to update some of the sprites

marble oasis
#

maybe they have better designations that we don’t get to see

wispy orchid
#

mutations

unique tangle
#

i think the spikey crowns in the cogwork automatons case is just a design choice and not a significant religious symbol

marble oasis
graceful grail
unique tangle
#

like the spines and the crawlers have spiked elements too

midnight zinc
unique tangle
#

just in different arrangements

#

there's also this guy

#

with the crown but no spines

marble oasis
#

That’s a different guy

unique tangle
#

ye ik

#

im just showing another example of it

marble oasis
#

Those are clearly antennae to get a wifi signal for the confessional

unique tangle
#

why didnt they just connect it to ethernet

#

the confessional is right there

#

why go for wireless

marble oasis
#

Or better yet they just have a prerecorded cylinder in there

#

Or something

unique tangle
#

no that sounds ridiculous

#

how else would each treasured underworker get their own personalized message then

#

we wouldnt want to be scamming our workers

marble oasis
unique tangle
#

that still doesnt feel right

#

we should speak with passion to each employee

marble oasis
#

“Employee”

#

#CitadelChuckles

unique tangle
#

a salary is still a salary

marble oasis
#

What did bro say

unique tangle
#

i would love to know too

ionic stump
#

As for the roachkeepers having one on their back, probably to prevent muckroaches from ambushing them

#

Like armour

#

But you do bring up a good theory

unique tangle
#

It feels too significant to be just something random given that it’s the front gate design

#

But we don’t really have much to go off of

#

So it could be just for the looks

ionic stump
#

Roach tenders: yeah make a cool fuckin gate and put it on the backs of the big dudes

marble oasis
#

I bet you the catchers pinned it on the keepers while they were sleeping and thought it was hilarious

hee, stynx

#

they're some kinda nosk

dire lynx
#

not a nosk

marble oasis
#

some kinda

dire lynx
#

you could say some type of imposter, calling it a nosk implies a connection that has basically nothing supporting it

craggy smelt
#

upside-down face
mimics shit
classic Nosk moves

#

we don't really know what an uninfected Nosk would get up to

#

they could be smart

#

-ish

dire lynx
#

nosk uses magic, it doesnt rip the face off of bugs

#

the only thing in common is "upside down mask"

marble oasis
craggy smelt
#

I did always think it was interesting that Nosk gave no dreamnail dialogue beyond a '...'

#

there was clearly something going on with them, being able to shapeshift and search the hearts and minds of others for memories

#

yet, if they had a mental state, it seems like it was one different enough from other bugs that the dreamnail doesn't make any sense of it

#

So the closest real world bug to Hornet are

Hornets?

But how did Herrah even know?

I love citadelle lore

dire lynx
#

whats ur favourite bit?

#

if you have one

wet walrus
#

Biologically she is vloser to Hornets

dire lynx
#

how do you reach that conclusion

#

there is no hornet anywhere in there

wet walrus
#

1- Hornets aren't bees
2- They use needles to attack
3- They are more powerful than the average bee
4- They are viciously fast

#

Also Vespa could be a reference to the wasp family Hornets are part of in real world

#

Does that mean Vespa named Hornet in the game?

dull moss
#

Sure, but none of this has an impact on her biology
