The similarities between structures in Forest and Wasteland could signify Wasteland used to be like forest.
Honestly the first idea that came to my mind in the battlefield was that those spirits fight the krills.
The scared stance spirit cutscene does seem to imply that the spirits and krills existed within the same time period
The barricades before the temple are all for warding off things on the land though which doesn’t make sense if they were fighting the krill
Unless they used the barricades to block themselves from the krills vision?
Maybe Krill are initially land based; like giant dark centipedes.
somehow thats even worse than the krills we have now
Lmao, to me, the krills look like shrimp :p
hence why theyre called krills 
Yea
which makes sense if tgc is gonna keep up with that theme of marine animals for sky
my entire camera roll consists of many many many screenshots for sky lore and i cant WAIT to delete them all when i finish my albums
i've already finished my isle albums and i'm halfway done my prairies albums. i can only imagine the pictures i need to retake when i make the rest of them
By the way, krills seem to appear out of the ground/water in the wasteland. They don’t just fly around like in Eden.
Do we know krill, Elders, Spirits. Or Children existed at the same times and places?
no
we don't know the timeline. thats the thing
we dk if the spirits in the same realm existed together at the same time
Krill and children: Yes (obviously)
Children and living Elders: No
Children and living Spirits: No
Living Elders and living Spirits: At some point yes (depicted in murals)
Other combinations: We don’t know for sure
the elders probably existed together at the same time since we see them together in vaut elders cutscene
mmm i disagree?
when we see them in the cutscene it's after they die
like all the other elders, they've long since passed away
just because their ghosts all pop up at once doesn't mean they were alive at the same time
please 
I’m begging I need lore 
"Long has passed, but now I call to you-"
@humble barn we know krill and the spirits were alive at the same time though, because the scared stance spirit is hiding from them in the cutscene, and since the spirits were alive at the same time as the elders the elders could have been alive at the same time as the krill(this part is a little iffy)? or at least the wasteland elder was
But that could be--- I don't know how to say it in English but
something writers do intentionally to mislead us
I meant the scared stance spirit
Oh yeah, the red light
Can be a non-krill searchlight, but I'd say it's meant to be krill
Kind of weird though, the red light of krill does not look like that in game
They search us with blue light, and when they see us, the red light flashes
hmm
Another interesting story is from the look around emote, he's clearly a sentinel
but what did he see and blew the warning horn

When you light the thing before the last section in Wasteland, that causes three krill to show up
Yeah, that could be a clue
really?! were are the eyes
source: i saw it on with my own eyes
rip
i pumped up the graphics to the highest fps and i only saw it for a brief moment
it was during the cutscene dw
👀
i remembered seeing the krills with 3 eyes honestly but i didn't think much of it until a friend pointed it out for our group
did you catch a photo of it?
The cutscene in the battlefield?
OOF
As far as whether the searchlight from the spirit cutscene was a krill's, I figured it was and just looked different for graphical limitation reasons
probably
And I also think it is highly unlikely that krill came to the world after all those spirits are gone.
but we don't see any krill in murals, so krill could be rather new in the timeline
i consider krill is part of all the disaster
The wasteland elder mask looks like the head plate/exoskull of the whale
The krill in the scared stance cutscene is part of the cutscene and not the krill that flys by that area, you can tell by watching the graveyard krill fly by then watch the spirit scene and another/the same krill will fly by
We also don’t have any wasteland murals which would probably say something about krill if the murals existed
If people were fighting against krill the whole time, shouldn't krill be on this wasteland mural in Vault?
Also we don't see any krill in the wasteland elder cutscene
But I do agree that the red light in the scared stance cutscene was from the krill (not 100% sure tho). He/she could be one of the last of their species witnessing the end of their civilization
i do agree that the spirits may not have fought against the krill! the barricades before the temple would have blocked off land creatures but not the krill so it seems like the spirits had another opponent?
in the mural you just sent, it looks like theres ribs on the right side
whales were already dead when the war happened apparently
it couldnt be the x-barricades. we woulda seen the x haha
ah another thought, which seems unlikely, but it cooooooooooooooooooooould be interpreted as a krill buried in the sand with the legs sticking out? it definitely looks more like whale bones though with the way it curves
lololololol
upside down krill having trouble escaping like a turtle turned over
they match the bones in forest, and the call you get from burning the dark plants on those bones is the whale call so it seems more likely that the bones are from whales?
plus krills irl has no bones. theyre like bugs? exoskeletons
Does it have anything to do with the white fish? Fish call?
The what?
The mother of the land
O
I didn’t remember where I saw this name for it, no reliable source here, don’t take it if it make no sense to you
The skulls in graveyard are different than the whale skull in forest or erm, where else is there a whale skull
These are graveyard skulls , front of the first skull back of the last
Whale skull in forest looks like my mask I posted a pic of slightly earlier
what if it's a turtle :o
That similarity has been noticed before!
i like turtles
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GH9vvTdKHPE&feature=youtu.be
I meant to post this yesterday but forgot.
This is a short verbal song we hear near the gate in the orbit. I used to think this was a part of "Constellation" (the ending credits song), but recently realized that it wasn't.
the whale skull in forest looks like the head of the old whale design
the whale in the concept arts is pretty much the same as the one we have in live but minus the rock skull thing
maybe there were.. different types of whales in game?
they probably went extinct or something
Could that space shuttle-like creature be another type of whale?
Yeah a young whale sounds more probable. The left upper images shows that the shuttle is far smaller than the rock skull whale, while the bones in the graveyard are huge
someone here pointed out that this could be the evolution/growing-up process of a whale
baby shuttle whale > manta > manta but thicker > longer shuttle whale > big whale
honestly i believe it
Yes, and I hope it is growing up process rather than evolution. Then we might someday get to see baby mantas in game.
don't we see baby mantas in the game already?
Oh, speaking of babies, the difference in skulls could be sexual dimorphism in a single species. Just a thought.
we see smaller mantas but not the triangular one in the concept art
The skull in wasteland graveyard are huge. I thought the skeletons were of whales/coelacanths.
Mantas don’t seem to have bones, more like cartilage fish.
many ppl think they're whale skeletons
I believe the whale 🐋 in game has the same exoskull (placoderma) as that concept art just a different colour
The graveyard/vault skeletons are about the same size as the whale I think?
What if the snake/turtle skeleton things in graveyard were what the barricades around the wasteland temple were built for?
Based on the scared stance emote and the vault wasteland mural, it looks like the skeletons already existed when the spirits were already be so it seems like whatever creature it used to be has been dead for a while when the spirits were alive
Do we assume the ocean under all the realms is canon?
I think it half is. Dawn starts at ocean level then we move up the mountain, so the ocean would be below. The distance down to it is obviously wrong tho after prairie
home is also ocean level
coming soon new tgc game "Ocean: Children of the Waves"
Maybe the mountain continues down into the sea a long way. Maybe... maybe nuclear waste from wasteland leaked into the sea and mutated a tiny krill or two.
Are all realms assumed to be suspended by clouds like GranBlue Fantasy?
Not sure what GranBlue Fantasy is but I do think all the realms exist within the clouds.
yep
Crazy to think oceans and mountains are up in the clouds
yeah! there must be really large land masses for the oceans to rest upon in the clouds
A floating continent?
Tho I do believe Home is down on the ground
Since in the intro your falling star falls past the clouds in the mural and down below
Isle of Dawn looks a lot like Journey, just throwing that out there.
Maybe as we unlock the levels, the world grows around us and when we’re closer to Eden, the closer to destruction we are.
This is just kinda based on my theory that Journey and Sky are parallel universes.
Maybe Journey is a world that had already happened, and Sky is slowly approaching destruction.
Or perhaps Sky is a different ending to Journey with a not so advanced civilization.
Maybe... maybe there's a whole world, and it's floating, and surrounded by clouds. Kinda like earth and such
I was fairly sure that home, isle, and wasteland were beneath the cloud layer that the rest of the civilization was built on, though I could be wrong.
Wasteland and Isle do seem to be built on a much lower altitude in comparison to the rest of the areas
I do think they're within the same overall cloud layer as the other levels though, but the intro graphic could be more of an artistic depiction rather than a geographical one
Sky is much more full and varied Journey is lovely (and short) but there’s so MUCH in Sky
I love all the broken mountains, there’s three right? Entrance to Praire, above the ice rink, and behind the citadel/orrery?
What other parallels are there, krill/mecha krill, level progression and design (except forest), creatures in general (though Sky is missing the cloth seaweed equivalent), rebirth/death/Eden/light at the mountain 🏔, capes/flight/yelling
Am I missing anything..? 🤔
ive never played journey so for me everything is a whole different experience
cus of that i dont get to compare the similarities between the two and focus on the things in sky instead
im not saying that finding similarites in both games is wrong!! its just its different in the eyes of someone who never played journey
ik i keep mentioning my albums and im very sorry about that;; but i’m finally done my prairie albums! it tooks 128 pictures and 3 albums to cram everything in 
i can share both my isle and prairie albums rn if yall are interested, but i wont be sending the links again until i finish every realm aside from eden and home. then i'll send it again as a complete set
Congrats!! And please don’t apologize; I for one am really looking forward to your albums @spring blaze! Keep up the great work (but don’t forget to take care of yourself too!)!
thank you!

(beta spoilers) ||there is a new feature in the beta that lets you relive all the spirits, so I took a bunch of screenshots of them and put them all in an album!||
someone kindly brought to my attention that kanpai's albums have been a great resource in this channel so i'll be sure to add that to the pin as well ^^
i'll share it as soon as i get it in a good format lol
Could your album include video @crimson grove ? I think it should be more convenient if it's something like imgur
I was putting the archive in google drive
They’re actually a bunch of still screenshots of the spirits, but I was thinking of adding videos soon too!
I was taking them for myself and thought about sharing them here, so I didn’t really had the time to record properly
If anyone wants to do that and share it here as well... 👀
Oh i see, I was just gonna use your link for yours! Or if you’d rather have that message pinned separately that’s fine too
but google drive is not really that convenient tho
Your archive is really useful tho! ||and also valuable because the new beta feature doesn't allow us to see the cutscenes again.||
Yeah unfortunately 
Theory of different/parallel worlds or “cores” as i call them: actual footage
Light core: where the light creatures come from
Other cores (seen at the start of credits): possibly corrupted by darkness or empty (no life forms yet)
Yet to be saved by a parallel hero
So multiverse?
Most probably
ive watched credits a few times and I've never soaked in the fact rhat theres planets
like cmon me, it makes sense. you're literally in orbit
I waited 4 months to post this 😅
:0 why
Waited to see if someone was thinking the same, but nope lol
I believe someone mentioned planets in orbit when I posted my theory on Home
but yeah I think I haven't seen anyone saying something about how barren the planets look
Also. A waxing crescent moon (first step towards full moon) over eden’s crystal? What does it means?
Actually Its waning crescent or old 😅
If it is waning crescent or old, it could mean it’s the end and about to start again
On Earth yes
Sorry I was wrong what I saw was people mentioned the multiple spheres in the orrery but not the planets in the credits
Is it new or was always there? I’ve never seen it before in eden
I’m pretty sure it’s always been there
its been there
Mochi and i always thought that the orbs in orrery resembled the light orb in orbit 😱 they’re definitely the same
It's kinda weird we cant see the crescent from outside
First time i look up on the diamond then 😅😅😅
Technically you can
It’s in shipwreck in Wasteland
Look up through the clouds
Or even better, fly up there
Maybe its because the moon is past those clouds and we can only see it from the crystals point of view
oh yes I actually had a photo lol
Halloween office had a big old moon, don’t really think it’s lore but still interesting
It’s also red
by the way what is that elliptical object in your Eden screenshot?
I was thinking...., what if the megabird is not only a god, but a galaxy (like our milkyway) and the cores we see in credits are all planets that once where all connected (by all mighty megabird) and now they are dull and barren from darkness, and our mission is to save one by one by returning the light to each of them...
@humble barn looks like a coin to me 😅
probably just a funky rock
Okay I need to know more about eden’s ending
Is it supposed to be a psychological take
Or is it something else like the first shiny boi to enter eden
The boi you hug at the end I mean
multiple kingdoms. why are there multiple kingdoms in sky
like they werent at war with each other... and it could be assumed wasteland's military forces were established after the darkness started becoming a threat.
alternatively maybe they did have some dissent between them which would explain the different kingdoms under different rule. or maybe split communities for whatever reason ? like... i dunno. what is a reason to create different territories / realms other than conflict ?
in sky's website, sky is referred as one Kingdom
all of the realms are part of one Kingdom
in the concept art it elaborates the realm's purpose
@fading roost The main theory is that you're hugging yourself. Some of the concept art talks about 3 different states, ascended (light), dark and indifferent (a between state). You arrive there burned out and lost - dark. But a part of yourself is ascended, this is your bright boi. You hug, and become one again - back to indifferent, neither ascended nor dark, but between (or a little of both).
Guess there's a lot of ways you can interpret that. It's interesting that you don't get any choices there though - imagine if you could meet your bright part, and just say "no, you're better off without me, you go on ahead", and just wave goodbye.
^ I feel like the reason we are the hybrid is because our dark and light forms cannot sustain themselves on their own when it comes to traveling and exploring the kingdom. That’s why our dark version can’t last at all, and our light one only stayed lit so brightly from the end of EOE to traveling to orbit. If the light version was strong enough, it probably would’ve stayed lit up all the way until rebirth. So the light needs the dark in order to sustain a physical form in a place like orbit and the rest of the kingdom
Maybe it's just that one can't exist without the other - no light without darkness
anyone know what this could be ? my first thought was grave but i dunno
its near forest's river area's campfire, usually surrounded by dark plants. those two little dots of light blink off the farther you move away from them
its a clock!
when the dot in the circle aligns with the top dot, a rainbow appears! (5am/pm PST)
It is?
yep
That’s cool !
o: thats so awesome
I don’t think the dot ever actually moves, but yeah go there at 5am/pm PST and look up 🙂
Lol yeah I’ve never seen the dot move before. But it is showing 5:00 on an analog clock.
The dot never moves on any of the clocks in the game.
Speaking of which, do you know where to find this clock?
That’s on the left of the bridge where the temple door is right?
thats cool
OOOh??????
yep
i stumbled on that little clock too lol it's just slapped to the side
a mod here said it had something to do with freeing mantas back in bets
Yes, that's right. We used to free mantas in a cave down below that, and the clock indicated when the mantas would be there.
so
this is why we free mantas in live too right?
hows life dune
forbidden love
||the office is so strange i just got in for the first time yesterday ||
it's funny because sky-kids have natural noclip powers
So, what happens at noon in prarie?
There used to be a boat that launched from there.
Actually there were two boats in beta, and this villages area looked differently. One was via the other dock and was for chatting only. The one from this dock would take you inside a cave to get an emote.

The shy spirit has a very cute story
ooo maybe the temple crashing down?
Perhaps it has to deal with the krills’ presence ???
Oh! The shy spirit has a crush
hehehehe

What’s cool is that the first scene of the shy spirit isn’t the actual spirit
It was only when they go into the tunnel when we see the spirit
After that, the unknown person gives her the umbrella
Awwwwww
And at the last scene we only see her
that’s so cute !!
Ikr
Unless...
I haven’t checked the beta, so I have no idea what will happen
I’ll go check more photos
The apology spirit looks like they was trying to cut the tree down, but either two things happened.
-
someone was warning him to stop, but it was too late (maybe the reason why it’s one of the few tree that’s been cut)
-
when the tree was cut down, it could have hurt the bystander that was watching.
In the end, the spirit apologised to them at the end.
Well that’s crazy
I think the superhero stance is the only one where you see an actual spirit child
yeah
Took a photo with the skeleton thing, the more I see it the more it looks like a krill skeleton, it has really spiky parts, maybe it can be that whale, I don’t have a close up photo of it
the head of the whale in this photo looks like it would match that skeleton? especially with the little horns at the front
not sure if anyone knows but theres really cool posters in office that talks about each zone being phrases of life
same
only can read titles but i want to read whole thing
image of the whale as not a link for convenience
I could make out the text well most of it
This boat at the start of forest has little doors open where the diamonds are. Curious! Nothing inside.
maybe butterflies use to hide inside
There’s one in the big cave on prairie too, but not as easy to see there
The diamond seems to be embedded in the door tho, then there’s an empty space behind - for whatever powers the diamond maybe?
There are diamonds for each fin on the boat but I think the one in your photo is of one above the placement of the oars
It matches up pretty well with a pic from the concept art
Aaaah. Didn't know they had fins! That makes sense - the 'docked' boats near the start of forest (where it first starts raining) have fins - I didn't realise that's what they were, thought they were wooden supports because the boats are out of the water.
Anyone know why all the dark creatures are sea related. Crabs, 🦀, Krills 🦐, and giant whales 🐋
Like....I thought there would be dragons or something cuz it’s sky related
Wyverns 👀
mantas
Something that I just realized is that the towers in the Bird Nest area of the Prairie have tiny doors which suggests that really tiny beings once lived there
Or maybe they’re built normal size and been covered by dirt and time
Krill is also the fan community name for dark dragons
The doors are too narrow to be just covered
Are they? They seem the appropriate size for doors. Most time they’ve been mentioned here anyways people think they’re windows
Look how narrow it is compared to the player - you could fit through, but that wouldn't be very practical as a door. If it is a door - it's blocked up, and might be symbolic, decoration, or something else entirely...
I think it's more of a window huh
The building could very well be burried under the grass and be much taller than it looks
Btw, the round buildings in that area are likely based on brochs. A broch is an iron age building (~2000 years ago), found in the north of scotland. They were tall round towers like this, main difference is that real brochs had a double wall with a spiral passageway inside it (having been in one, there's no way that would work in Sky, the passage is WAY too narrow). The wooden posts sticking out of the walls would have supported the floors inside the tower (maybe the ones in Sky would support a staircase up the inside, or maybe they just changed the height so we can use them as stairs).
Brochs don't have windows, just a main doorway afaik. I think some also have an underground cellar type thing, probably used for cold (or secure) storage.
@fresh wraith the towers used to be much bigger
There was one tower
In prarie from a year ago
Just looked at the beta screenshot album in the pinned tab, the towers look similar but there's also the aviary if you mean that? have only seen one photo of that, but it looks quite different in style and size (and has windows)
No it wasn’t aviary
It was literally the broken tower just scaled up
From shiras prarie album
Oh see what you mean! It looks the same, but yeah the character suddenly looks very small 😄
Probably still broch sized (they're quite big, space for a few rooms inside)
sigh guess im gonna recreate all my albums so theyre in one album lmao
D:
oh phew i could just transfer the pictures in one album to another. they even keep the captions
WHEW
Yay!! And yep you can do that!
I feel that the temple in Isle looks like the prow of a boat as you approach it. makes me speculate that the entire temple came down through the clouds and crashed there
So this is a noob question but I just got early access on android....can you die? I went somewhere called the ||eye of eden|| and eventually ||lost all my light and crumbled to dust, then went to "heaven"???" Then restarted with level 1 cape||
@livid crypt that was discussed recently, the back looks like the end of a boat too.
@modest nest that’s probably more a question for #eden-spoilers but yes, at the end you die, the. You’re reborn.
@rocky wingah that makes sense.
@modest nest well congratulations u beat the game! (once...)
@dreamy cloak WOAH. I didn't even know I did 😂
That’s your candle, the red one you pull out, if you look at it when you have your candle out it’ll be gone
Try it
OH
Wait
So that means
The candle is a part of our body
Therefore we should have candle cosmetics prove me wrong
Woa, big brain moment
the music in isle when u first enter sounds like the credits imo
and the first note sounds like a boat horn
owo
So our candle flame is literally our heart flame 🔥 owo
Shielded by winged light..
Our cape is definitely showing how large our flame is then, then winged light is more like soul ember than soul flame I suppose?
So I was fooling around before the gate of eden and noticed there's a statue on top of the vault. However, there's an invisible roof so I couldn't get close enough to the statue to see what it was. Any ideas? (Also, the vault building is really short. Someone mentioned that the vault level is a hallucination and the end right before eden is the real thing. I support this theory)
Ah ok! Thanks! I must have missed that
its alright! probably your phone quality huh
Yeah. I'm thankful this channel is here for me to see the better quality pics for my theorizing
@spring blaze that looks like the normal diamond motif we see everywhere ||a lot like next season’s symbol|| the kings symbol is well like this
it looks more like a grave rather than a shrine
OMG IT DOES
all the elder statues look a bit like the graves of other spirits too
true
except for the valley twins, their graves were fused
I just noticed the vault elder cutscene is the only cutscene that doesn’t pan up to the sky and show the constellation being restored so we never see the vault roof that way
Also fingers and no fingers
sky kids dont deserv fingers
is there really a roof for vault if its all space?
the answer is yeah technically since you can oob there. but since its still all spce this doesnt count lol
It’s folded space like a tardis
have yall ever flown inside the arches there? its absolutely stunning
Vault can’t be 100% an illusion because we gather candle light from there, my bet is the central diamond acts as a holodeck emitter
a what
and yeah i agree that it isnt an illusion. it might be a memory..?
stuff stored in the diamonds
A holodeck emitter, from Star Trek, it’s like a VR room but the holograms are solid (can kill you if the safety is off) and you walk around without a headset
I’m guessing these have been discussed before?
how many stars are there?
@rocky wing check the pinned messages to see @/Mochi-daifuku#5077 notes on them ^^
@clever dust this is a channel for lore discussion, please ask game questions in #questions-and-help
I kinda wonder if when you enter battlefield and it directs you to the broken down structure as the main goal and temple is intentional?
Based off of all the barricades that kinda leads me to think the battle was an invasion
I’m unsure to think that the spiked circle symbol and the diamond looking symbol are a difference between good and what used to be good and is now evil? ????
👀
the diamond symbols are usually related to the king and the spiky circle is like the stars in the intro
the bird nest or the area on the right side of the butterfly field
Ahh birds nest
I think the spiky circle could represent something like rebellion? You see forest elder wearing a diamond mask so it looks much like she was once part of the order of the king, but she’s obviously not.
looks like the one from the Wasteland’s mural in Vault cutscene
maybe spiky circle represents the megabird?
I just wonder if the enemy in battlefield was followers of the king if the kingdom got split apart or became a dictatorship
orbs, circles, round things are MB and the pure light, diamond shape is refined light and technology and growth and the symbol of the king and the civilization
Oooo
(just a thought)
Yeah that could make sense for sure, the diamond seems to also represent something like regret.
and then when the king became corrupt the kingdom was divided between the followers of the king defending the eye of eden project and the followers of the megabird pointing out that it was dangerous and a bad idea
@crimson grove thanks!
Beginning of isle we see spirits (presumably, by their lack of a dot on their chest) praying to the stars, and they fall down and sky kids are made. Spirits seem to obtain this symbol from them? Or we are watching them interact with it, so yeah, perhaps it does represent the good in the spirits and elders/rebellion because that’s the first thing we see from them before we see anything about the eden King.
Or perhaps
Light and hope?
I think Aaron talked about the murals on stream, give me a second
👁 👁
forgets
ok give me another second
👁 👁 👀 👀
Guys
I’ve got a theory in mind
Do you ever get confused with stars and eden cuz the flare looks the same?
@dense saddle nvm can’t find their vods oops
Literally nobody answered my question
Sorry I dont really get the question
You mean the flare that star kids give off that kinda looks like a crosshair you see other places?
Just imagine you’re in prairie
You look up and see a flare
you’re like oh that’s a star
But it’s eden
Wait what
so what if
Ohh
Oh yeahh
Isn’t the flare a little too big for a star?
but isn’t there more stars in eden though like about 10 or so
i always thought it was just the pillar of light
really?
Mhm
You also see it on candles and stars in the sky too though, it's probably something like a reused texture
What if Sky is a pocket dimension we control with our phones
This theory makes zero sense but meh
yeah but what if
What if they where battling against boats and that's why we see so many crashed boats everywhere, because the boats went haywire and started rebelling and killing everyone resulting in the great boat war
YES
LOL
Is their war zone
I think a battle happened there before
Against the dark and light
What if the original children of the light were fighting the krills
Yeah
Speaking of which
That explains why they’re loads of graves
Do krills reproduce or do they just magically appear?
Yeah we call that place battlefield
That's what I was thinking about intially if you scroll up lol
Oh yeah
no
Just like in journey
That question was a little inappropriate but I’m truly interested in that.
Idk just curious
I heard once someone thought the krill where once guardians of the place because of how robotic they seem and we never see their skeletons, and that they probably went bad when the eden king turned evil lol
Wait what lol
What if the dark creatures are attacking the light to free themselves from the dark
it would make sense I guess, the ruins of the palace look like they where once great
Like you know consuming the light
Well yeah but, the king of Eden?
Holy sicjosjwje
What if dark creatures form each time a player loses their light
That also fits with the other theory
The krill were guardians maybe cursed by the eden king
That fits
HOLY WERE GETTING SOMEWHERE
JEJSJWJKSOFID
A skykid loses their light and can’t get it back, they become a darker creature
I’m thinking too deep into this uH
It’s only 8 pm for me
Go sleep
No this is important
We’re onto something
The whales are the krill that has consumed enough light to free itself
Yeah?
What if the krills lurking out in Eden are trying to prevent us from dying and wasting light bc they want it for themselves
To fight darkness
That’s selfish of them but brilliant
AND THAT IS WHY WE SEE SO LESS OF THE WHALES
BC THEY GO DARK?
no because most of the krill hasn’t freed themselves yet
🙌
Dude I think we’re about to solve Sky
Yeah
Also
Well the whales are all dead, they cant be krill, based off of the graveyard
Are the children of light made out of pure light?
They’re not all dead
There is one in Eden once u die
It breaks something to help u get through
I think it was in the forest
Oh yeah forest
They might’ve gone extinct
Maybe there’s just one survivor that’s hiding after Eden
maybe they’re breaking things to help you get through to repay you for the light you have given them
Wouldn’t that be the krills tho?
Or are you helping the whales not lose light with your light
Therefore they’re thanking u by helping you get through
Yeah but the krill turn to whales when they consume enough light
There’s a whale in the GW social area ^^ not just Eden
True, I think whales are kind of like the last surviving goliaths of the ruins. You see one as well in wasteland home. The fact you see them in eden kinda of shows you they're a bit like possibly the only real creature that isnt part of a memory.
Yes
That message sent a bit late lol
Lol
A lil late but I think the star you hug at the end in Eden is you
F
Let me think
What if the forest used to be a huge bridge that helped connect different light creatures with each other
If that makes any sense
Hm
You’d go through it and see different creatures
Wouldn’t creatures of dark try to consume the light creatures?
Hence would make the bridge unusable
Ah yes
hi y’all
Hii
Hewwo~
I don't really know if this is really relevant, or if anyone has already mentioned this, but the bell things in Daylight Prarie (in the shrine area?? I hope you know what I'm talking about) look like tibetan prayer wheels- They're also near the ramp thing that leads to Isle's shrine- My therapist brought it up when I showed her some of the gameplay
its been mentioned before! theres actually a pinned message from mochi who talks about the bells!
nice find though! because there wasnt a tibetan prayer wheel visual that's been sent
aw if i made u feel down im sorry;;
Awe, no, you didn't make me feel down, it's just that I tend to use commas in my faces- Like :,), it's kind of a habit, so don't worry uwu
pfpfpfp i use those faces too so you’re fine !
there are a LOT of boats in wasteland than i expected
dont mind me, i was trying to lose all the lights
Huh. Maybe there used to be lots of water in the area? Or maybe they were sunk by the Krill.
Wasteland is probably the most mysterious, next to ||Eden||
very mysterious but also so full of lore
thats what i love about wasteland
the boat at the bottom pick was from the very side of the area. ik no one rlly bothers to go to the side-side of the map
including myself
so when i saw the boat i was like “oh my god”
also @lean nacelle no need to spoiler anything here!
Boats fly and don’t use water, source: Praire wave spirit
Graveyard wasteland skeletons aren’t whales, the skulls aren’t right (the forest skeleton is a whale)
Also the star kid we see after dying in Eden might be the megabird and that’s my betting theory currently and ALSO @dense saddle this picture
Did you update the game recently? This mural is new
it was something very prominent in the concept art, but isn't very present in the current game
they're in the pins here!
thanks
damn there's a ton of sick light whale concepts
shame they weren't used more
like maybe in the shipwreck area, you complete a certain action, and that thing breaches out of the water and eats the krill
Where is the new area in the forest?
Through the 8 spirit gate !
@cedar ermine And @livid fog this channel is for discussing Sky lore. You can ask in #questions-and-help if you need more advice! The new area is accessed from ||sunny forest|| 😊
Np! Happy exploring!
Ok thanks and sorry
It’s ok! 
So you guys were talking about most things in the vault being a physical hologram of sorts. Have you checked out the new area? It being a hologram library is the only way it can make sense because it’s HUGE
The new vault area is in live now is it?
yea
@steady steppe ‘s pic with chrome bug
Reminds me intensely of Laputa: Castle in the Sky
And their main power source was a giant diamond crystal!
oh!
fancy
And their diamonds have levitation powers too 😏
i didnt get to take a pic of the whale but it loooked like it had a helmet ead
head
@dense saddle the very first cave mural in isle looked like this, that’s where this is right?
I don’t know when morning is for you so I don’t know whether you updated or took that screenshot first, but I think you updated first? 🤔
I have a bug but don’t have time to fill out form and stuff sorry;; here’s just quick screenshot before I need to go
@autumn cedar this channel is for lore discussion, bug reports go to #report-a-live-bug
@spring blaze you mean they’ve added more murals or are you talking about the point and follow spirits
I know but I cannot send photos, I thought this may be the best alternative for quick information
@autumn cedar this isn’t a channel to post things because it’s convenient, you can upload an image to imgur or message TGC in game
I understand you want to help though so thanks for the enthusiasm 😁
The spirits have dark plant cores!
Or rather it looks like a dark plant? I think it’s their souls
It looks a bit like a disco ball
Which spirit is that?
looks like the one under the stump
yup!
ah the photo is from beta though when i didn't get that spirit yet but i'm assuming that with the new update the feature transferred over
my lore eyes are working >:)
I found this door that I can’t open and their is def something behind it and it’s driving me crazy.
its nothing actually
its an old door from beta. you CAN glitch in but it's an empty room
this was whats behind the door in beta
ive never glitched in it but probably table glitch?
Thank you!
IF YOURE REALLLY CURIOUS and cant wait
here's whats behind it now!
@urban citrus
It was the old
emote room. Now it’s just the Empty Room of Thinking
room of thoughts
its a meditation room now
look at them in the pic theyre meditating. mr crab is there too
Ok so now that everything is p much revealed now, I can finally ask my BURNING question.
Wait if the next seasons story revealed to everyone yet?
I don’t wanna spoil
not really
all we know is "a family of spirits is coming to sky!"
we dk the spirits stories, the motive, etc
also the season isnt out yet
THERE ARE MORE BOATS
YES, I SAW MORE BOATS
MORE POTS!!
plus that sealed pot
POTS WITH SEALS
Man they really loved their boats and pots 
oh lol
(This is for my isle album)
its like a culture to them
now that raises the question, how long did those butterflies stay in the pots for?
hang on, is there any new content in prairie?
nope
oof
I love how they follow you actually. the butterflies
the closest thing you have as a pet. well, many pets
but I love them all anyway
i spent a while twirling around and formed a butterfly tornado around me
but yeah i wonder how long they’ve all been in there
i wonder if butterflies are just pure light though
In my opinion they are! you see prairie elder craft pure flame/light into a butterfly
its like the light is given form and life. they also recharge your cape which points pretty strongly to them being made out of pure light!
they are pure light
that might also be why they weren't considered a creature in the poll a week ago
paper airplanes
ohhhhh
I love how the butterflies chitter though, but i wonder why
almost like little, light fairies
i would love it if they were fairies
maybe they are fairies
I see them as megabirds surveillance cameras
They are the only creatures that are EVERYWHERE. Including Eden
theyre not no
I could cope with the butterflies being the modern fairies, but I’d they’re the proper traditional type? Nooooope do not want
They almost sound like they're talking when they chitter
yeah and theyre saying "theyre honking too close to us toss them up"
The inspiration for butterflies were the cloth butterflies from Journey that act the same (honk and they fly +refill your cape) but that’s an excellent question, why DO butterflies come at our call?
I was rewatching a walkthrough of the Sky beta and at the end of the Vault cutscene uh
There's a red mountain and dead skykids...
That's probably a representation of the last section in Eden(the statues)
Iirc it was mentioned in here that like...the king killed the spirits? Or something like that
How did the twins of the valley die so young?
when i went through eden there was no mention of a king or anything, though i may have missed it
are they dead though?
i mean, the spirits are dead, buut the twins are elders
Well they’re spirits
Oh ye
Forgot
Wait
How are they elders so young too
Like if they are elders
How they so young?
Physical age might not mean much in sky
oooh how long do u think a lifespan of an skypian is? like are they secretly super old
or do we just not die bc we keep reborning
I don't think they'd have the same lifespan as humans, definitely a lot longer
mmmm yeah thats what i thougt too
If my Sky kid is average, they only live for about a week 😭
Nice Boop
Ive always seen the elders are like the gods of the Sky Kingdom...
We finally get to see what pots looked like when they were covered!
Poor butterflies left alone for hundreds of years 😞
The ancestors of the sky kingdom all died at once
👀
THE PLOT THICKENS
OH BOI WE HAVE MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS
_this is now avenger threat
which technically is when you think about it
I’ve posted pics of eden from may where it shows all the ancestors dying
👀 why am i hearing this now?!
OH
o h ?
Then how long has the sky kingdom have no ancestors 👀👀
seraph why are you saying this now
looong long time
how dare you
I posted it weeks ago omg
THATS WEEKS AGO
Why are you keeping secr-
cries
aggressively searches channel
folks we have diggings to do
from:Seraph#2000 in:spoilers-lore-discussion has: image
YOOOO
what
I’m panicking
wait what
Time for more diggings
what went down at eden
???!!!!!
w o a h
Whoa
these images are wild
intense
V blue
All this amazing stuff happens when school gives a bum ton of work aaaa blue beta Eden tho 👀👀👀
dang it school!!
thing is this was from beta, so we dk if they still died at the same time or they changed it as game development progressed
hmm true
aaaaa if they all died at the same time who built the graves?
good question!!!
It didnt have to be everyone
I do wonder what caused them to fall to the clouds tho 🤔 like was it happenings in Eden or did a rebellion happen and that’s why the wasteland is so battle worn
maybe the very few who survive?
Could just be everyone in the proximity of the Diamond Eye explosion
Maybe the spirits were still alive??
Yall should read my official theory about Eden
I don't think Eden was where the spirits came from, the intro makes it seem like the spirits who fell built eden
Search: from: @inspiration-rain#0100 in: #spoilers-lore-discussion diamond eye
@maiden glen I someone saying they fell to the clouds from greed of the power of creation or something
a little off topic but i love the Storm’s music, now with the frozen bodies from the explosion it’s really unnerving
im leaning towards the King theories
the King theories are 👌
_idk why but that guy sure has something going on _
It will explain everything
BRUH ILL DRAW THE KING IF I MUST
I haven’t seen many tho It is interesting
I haven’t seen king drawing either the fan art channel always has so much in it I miss things and I weep
It’s like 9 pm I really wanna read but I can’t aaaa the theories are overflowing (I can’t English aaa)
Running?
OH HECC YEA
MWAHAHAH
AMAZING
THANK U!!!
VAULT MOMNO-
Gosh i’m actually digging in with this King design i made
I am too smh
why ask me 
mwahahha
@spring blaze it’s from beta but it was really close to launch
I’m gonna go like, doodle lore things if I can hold up
omg YAS
OH SKYMII TJATS YOU
THATS ME
NSJSJSJSJSK
I didn’t recognise you without your name djdhjdbfjfhx
hahahhaa
Lol I can’t believe the regulars in the lore channel didn’t know about those screenshots 
It’s one of my favorite theories tbh
:,(
It was never part of eden, it was only available oob (extremely hard to get to) for a short time
i dont read up if my phone shows that +25 new msgs notif lol
Just after the final gate that would take you to space and end the level
I saw that by accident when trying to glitch somewhere else and was like excuse me what 
And I was sure that was gonna be like... a future update to eden
Maybe the True Ending to sky?
A few days later it was removed and the whole level changed 
damn would’ve been interesting if they kept it on
AND EDEN IS SO DARK! you cant see anything there 
I still think hope they might include it somehow 👀
make eden brighter again
Of course the lore might be different now since they never included it, but that’s still my “What The Hell Happened in Eden??” theory
They all died in the explosion. Everything died
the end
And it kinda makes sense if the only light creatures that survived were being kept inside of pots
Or maybe they died too and returned somehow when the children of light appeared
probably the first one
i mean in the recent update theres even pots with seals in them, buried in the caves
no wonder the butterflies in the new isle area follows u!! theyre lonely D:
or at least, that’s what i like to think
Mood though. Those photos are heartbreaking! Thank you for posting them!
i swear someone gonna say the MB word
Mb word...?
Megabird :O
well, the megabird isnt really a bird. thats the thing
its more of a.... space.. thing
idk how to describe it
It is the megabird tho 👀
The megabird is the source of all life
Well not life but our light
or rests in
The megabird is important yo, it’s probably the direct reason for winged light, they’re literally like megabird FEATHERS the more feathers the more you can fly
The megabird probably also powers the portals and home statues (which are bird statues)
The megabird might be the narrator on top of all this
someone: whats the mega bird
lore regulars: owo
My head canon is it’s the megabird singing the credits
That was me 😂
its alright! we’re here to discuss lore
@modest skiff I’m in love with this megabird feather idea and I will honk at you in game loudly if you disagree
Including the stomp emote 
For some reason I see similarities between megabird, the gratitude symbol, and the rock that we have to meditate at
What’s the gratitude symbol again? Could I see it please?
A spiral
the spiral is sorta the same on the meditation rocks
those rocks are supposed to be for gratitude
@hollow pier I LOVE IT
we are grateful to the megabirb
Now we just need fan art of a cape made of huge feathers, and why stop there! A cape like it in game too please 🙏 oh megabird I will give you all my hearts
ok ik this is WAAYY too early to tell but do yall think the new areas are gonna stay the same after the season ends?
No, forest underground is definitely getting more. That unfinished locked room begs to be finished
its for my albums. granted i could just delete them if they do remove some aspects
Go for it
cus they removed those platforms from the vault lightseekers but kept the lil island
hmmmm
For real though that new area in vault is incredibly hidden as is office
wonder if the small tunnel cave at isle still there
it is!
oh phew

...
