All other creatures of light share their light with you, so it would make sense if something caused whales to be reclusive and closed off.
They can go through walls AND we fly right through them, but we have all tried riding a krill before
They have this wind aura around them thats rlly strong, so when they charge at us, the wind knocks us down. Therefore they have no physical body, jus an aura of physical and strong wind
We can fly right through birds too though
ahhh i see, unfortunately i am smart and never tried to touch krill so i wouldn't have known 
Cuz they don’t have a physical body as well
Jus the neutral creatures, the ones we can touch and they have bones
These neutral creatures aren’t dark or light
So are Krills self conscious or are they a manifestation of deep darkness that evolved?
Prolly has a conscious but based on its actions I actually don’t kno for sure
Wafo for this one
early designs of krills still gimme nightmares

@steady tundra Where can I see?

Early concepts of krill look the same but I believe cupcake is talking about the old dark creatures that never made it to game
oh yeah yes I meant those
Thanks for all the answers @sly kestrel , @round musk , @hushed steeple , @uncut bone ~~~ Eases my curiosity a lot on this game
The diamonds were manufactured out of stars, correct? That's why we send them back to the sky
well in the boat in ark it showed that the spirits made these balls or diamonds and then in isle it showed them taking boats to return them to the sky
bottom sketches look like whale guardian hybrid
yes that gives me nightmares
That’s a completely different concept cupcake
So in the intro when it says the stars fell, and it show seven large stars in the center, it must be referring to the elders
Yea it is
One in the middle is the child of light
Oh there was also going to be floating faces in the clouds and masks that would stalk you
or the king
Oh that must be why they removed the ruler of Eden from the game
So that the skykids can represent the elders of Eden
.....huh
Ok eden doesn’t rlly have to do anything with the elders, it was jus built by them and eden was made long after they fell from their home
wasnt eden like.. a capitol?
middle of the world, on this tall tall mountain
made the big bad power diamond there
Actually I take back what I said, I confused child of light with skykid
Yea it’s a totally different person
Theoretically tho, it’s the one who sent the skykids and it can’t be a coincidence that we look exactly like the child of light
But still, the children of light must be the equivalent of the elder for Eden
Ehhh not rlly
The elder for eden was something totally different, it was the concept for the king
Is there a Queen?
But that got removed from the game
And we arent even sure if king is canon to the game or not
No queen
No princess either
There were many different concepts of them
So it’s hard to explain
I'm going back in game now and contemplate the life of my SkyKid while on the lift
Here’s one if ur lazy
Here’s another if u like reading, none of these are canon tho
Zoom in to read, if ur WiFi is good, the pixels will load fast and it will be readable, if u have bad connection, u have to wait a bit longer for the pixels to load
i find it weird how in the concepts it's suggested that darkness was created by the sky kingdom, but now in current canon we say that darkness was a natural part of sky
makes me wonder just how much has really changed lore wise
In the timeline it was jus something they found
Current canon it’s now power diamonds and it was something that was made
darkness?
Oh sorry I read it wrong
In the concepts, it was a natural thing too
Darkstone however was something found
So, from what I've gathered, spirits and skykids both used to be stars
No
only the elders were stars
spirits were most likely human-like creatures that were already in the world of Sky
skykids are 
They were, even in concepts, the spirits were jus habitants in the “human” world
Tgc should rlly tell us the name of their race
I’m kinda getting tired of saying “human”
wait-
I say human-like because there's no official info on what they were
so I agree with you, Jay
were spirits "neutral" entities?
enter the keyboard smash
[insert name here]
They jus like light and it was valuable to them
Why do we return them to constellations, then?
neutral entities, in theory, can ascend to orbit
In concepts they are lost souls and their
Lemme jus show you
well i guess they died and they just kinda got lost along the way or smth cause there should be tons more spirits
Read the second one, may not be canon but it does give u an idea
so... spirits (in theory) have died with impurities in their heart
which could be why we burn darkness in them to relive the memories
Maybe for whatever reason, they sided with the diamond shields in the war and lost privilege to ascend to orbit?
No orbit is different
It’s like....a migration to be reborn or to settle home
And
Ok I give up
For now
Jus wafo
It's cool I'll go find some sources
ah yes the wave analysis for fatigue and oceanography
i am now confused about the different origins of elders and spirits
why were elders in orbit while spirits were in Sky? and how come spirits can go to orbit
were elders like a council
Hmmm look at it this way
Spirits are us, skykids and elders are aliens who come from another place
The spirit can but not their physical body, they were alive once, it’s jus their spirit ascending to the “afterlife”
I have little speculations on the home in the sky and the afterlife, but I do kno spirits and creatures can go
i see i see
Have the devs ever explained exactly what the children of light are?
Kinda but not rlly
we're the children of light
We jus call em skykids for short
but not very much info, tbh
They are very related to the child of light
And uhhh
We look like the child of light
And.....
yeah
We don’t have a natural body
Oh and we can mimic stuff
I’m pretty sure u kno the basics but talk about their origins is a bit more vague
I thought the winged light were the children of light
technically there are multiple children of light but which ones the title is referring to is beyond me
Sky kids know copy the spirits' emotions very well. But They don't have any
I think the winged light is the souls of the lost children of light
yeah, we can only mimic
Winged light is imprints of the child of light
Y'know, if Skykids are so good at mimicry..
How come we can't mimic the clothes of the spirits/elders?
Mimic clothes?
Yeah.
we can buy some of their clothes
We can mimic hair and capes, but that's about it.
Yeah
That too.
Do u kno what mimic means
Thats is confusing, first: I don't think we can make them but we can buy it
How are clothes mimic-able
Yes 
They are working on adding stuff like that but the word mimic means something totally different than the way ur looking at it
children playing dressup
We wouldn't want to steal all of the spirits' style
Ok maybe not mimic but like. How come we can't have the shirts of spirits.
Mimic means to copy someone's expressions or emotions.
Like I said they are working on stuff like that
And sometimes looks, L.
Yea but....not clothes
i think... we should start saying imitate?
Looks is a better fitting word than "clothes"
Imitate that's what I was lookin' for.
Intimidate the Krill.
Tame the Krill
Ride the Krill
Be the Krill.
The only thing we mimic is their expressions, stances etc
Everything else is bought
But if we buy an item from the spirit. We get it, and it's not like they lose it, they still have it. So where do that extra items comes from??
Do spirits keep extra stocks??😂
Ok it’s kinda hard to explain but they way ur lookin at it, it’s jus one physical mask that’s available but remember they are spirits
one popular theory is that the clothes are created and maintained by light. remember when you lose your flame the rest of your cosmetics are lost
True.
Uh huh
U do kno they are dead ppl right
They can’t jus give off their actual cosmic look
Plus that would b kinda weird
yeah the cosmetic would be solid while they re a ghost blob
Umm but normal spirits do show exactly the same colours
Remember, skykids don't have fully physical bodies, so it seems like we just morph our form to look like the spirits
tye? phot?
Thats why they crash into things
Not in the same sense as a whale
okay the way i see it, a flameless skykid is their "true" form. everything else is simply a cosmetic formed by light
What is going on 😭
I wouldn’t say their “true” form
I think their true form is when they are filled with light, them being bald and empty it’s jus something that they can turn into when they are lightless
Whales have flesh and bones, but skykids are made of some unearthly material that might not even work like the matter we know
whenever you lose your flame, your pants hair and instrument leave
they do go clink on the ice
Ok when I say physical I mean like u can touch it
But the way ur looking at it, ur referring to the fact that skykids don’t have natural bodies with flesh and bones
But they are still.....yu kno
Touchable
Yeah, when they lose light, only cape is visible. I think the cape is different than other cosmetics becuase its an integral item for a skykiddo
Yeah I guess I should have used the word organic instead
i avoid talking cosmetics and i just chalk it up to game design mechanics but ig we can make some theories
No
Too much effort into something so little
I agree with game mechanic but, if u wanna theorize feel free
i do genuinely think it's interesting that our cosmetics dissapear when we lose flame. thats enough reason to theorize imo
Butterflies are pure form of light, right?
And they are attracted to light too. Thats why when we fly near them they follow us and give is light.
And i think the butterfly pots must have a light source in them. Thats why butterflies go into them...
And i guess then they are manufactured into pure light and sent to the power diamond factory in forest...
In the intro I guess it is shown that the skykid is already on the ground, and is bequeathed with light
Who do you think is the narrator???????
Probably one of the elders
i really want to say megabird but like....... that's a whole nother discussion man
Yea
It refers to the stars as "we", so it must be an elder
I was think
I think it's someome/something who/that is over everyone, light or darkeness, good or evil, pure or impure.....
so the speaker in the beginning is unknown
since megabird is not confirmed, the child of light would make sense
It’s jus made most sense to me
Does it say "we were united or something"
No
Yeah
Intro is in the pins if u wanna see
megabird is shown in sky though, so it might as well be confirmed?
"Our'
it's not confirmed as the megabird though
Elders and the child of light
true true
some say it's just some designs that look like the idea of the megabird
and there's nothing that says that it is the megabird
I do think it is though, but I just don't have as much canon to back it up as I would have liked
Same
I wanna believe it but the way I theorize I always look at facts and stuff I can confirm and plenty of evidence ya kno
Is there something I'm missing? Why would the child of light be talking to itself in the intro?
Cuz
the child of light is talking to skykids
We are not the child of light
At the beginning, there is lightning and thunder at home.
Just like it is when we return home in between eden
We (players) are most likely children of the light
There is also an entity that is probably THE child of light
slight difference
This is news to me. Who is the child of light?
The dude in the intro
Game title is
Sky: "children" of the light
So there's not 1
Winged light is also imprints from the child of light
ahh i think i have the screenshot
At the beginning of the intro, there is lightning and thunder at home.
Just like it is when we return home in between eden
Maybe the child of light is the king
Ooh the term shiny boi is coined by devs. I thought players called them that for fun
there is some evidence of the child of light being king although im not sure im allowed to talk about it so 🤐
Not allowed to??
And the reason why I believe that it’s the narrator is Bc we look exactly like the child of light and we are like copies of him or her. Pretty sure it was the one who sent us
questionable methods
Reika kept quiet when I asked her about this
i stand by 'child of light is king' theory since the king (presumably) didn t fall from the sky and we can see a shiny guy in the pre pre orbit thing
if we assume the child of light is the king then we have to again question who that child from the intro is
I also think child of light is the king
As he was THE "child of light" so it makes sense that he would be the king
it could yes
I think currency is the only thing that isn't lore realted. Rest all is
U tellin me oreo is lore related
actually i think they gave a lore answer for currency
They did actually
Oreo here I come
Hello
okay but i just realized that our base role in the server is "child of light" which probably means that "children of the light" refers to skykids
So we were discussing that i can be the king
your crown sir 👑
Ok i wear it real quick
Z Z Z
U jus stand there

We good now..
No
don t need to spoiler tag lol
basically a way for sky citizens to fuel their machines
like in the forest gates and boats
they re made of butterflies and another unknown substance
theorists think that the eden diamond is also a failed power diamond
but we ll never know 
Is it A thing in the game?
like canon? idk probably not but there is a lot of evidence that suggests it
I'm good but thanks
made of butterflies
well not butterflies, but evidence suggests it
like in prairie we see a spirit collecting butterflies into jars
and on the forest door we see those jars get shipped to the press
as well as the butterflies being led into the press
it might also be another form of light though
probably is lol
well that puts a whole new perspective on
spirit memories
More than jus butterflies
jay what do you think
Ooo lore me fave
A while ago I made a copy and paste version of me explaining the diamonds and the flying boats Bc ppl asked over and over
Time to send it again 😂
Lol
hi ebhuck welcome to our little corner of the server
So this is about the theory of diamond production and the purpose of flying boats. Boats are mainly for the use of carrying pots of light. You can see these pots of light being made at prairie and I say pots of light because there are butterflies put inside them. In the wave emote cutscene, u can actually see one of the flying boats carrying pots of light.
These pots are being shipped to forest to make power diamonds, they combine the light with organic material at forest and use a diamond press to combine them into an artificial Star, or what we call “power diamond”. You can actually see the concept of this by looking at the forest temple door mural. To add even more details, right when u enter forest the text on the bottom says to “find the source of an ancient power”. The pic below is another way of looking how power diamonds are made and how forest built them. This diamond press in the picture is also seen at the golden wasteland, and there’s a krill flying around it. It may be broken down but it is noticeable that it is the same factory. Also the shipwreck at wasteland is seen to be carrying certain pieces of this diamond press, it goes to the top and sides. Now I know there’s boats everywhere and not all of them are carrying pots of light, so I jus assume they are for transportation since the people on the ground can’t fly naturally
I need to make some changes actually, I found some other evidence that adds to this
yep i agree with that to a certain extent
Man I can’t put that much thought into something
just wait till you hear about the wasteland war ohoho
the two shields one?
Oh the diamond theory I had, I put more development to it than the 2 shields one
My diamond thingy took months 😂
And tons of live-stream watching and reading and exploring random stuff
two shields theory is wild
the sun and the diamond war mind blown shooketh
Question- what is a Oreo other than a yummy cookie I keep hearing it being said
that chart is cool did u draw that?
it s an easter egg that can be found in prairie, you can ask for someone to take you in #looking-for-group-live
it s a dog also lol
Jenova Chen's dog!
Jenova Chen’s dog
cute lil doggie

Damn u beat me to it
bless oreo
Lol
she is speed

I am nyoom
Wait take me in? Man sky’s deeper than I thought
Hm?
Oop ty lol
jay what was that
What was what?


Well got to go byee
so skykids lose their flame and become lightless, unable to produce a flame or any kind of light
but their cape still carries their winged light
and when they lose all their winged light, that is what kills them
so what is a skykids life source?
i m pretty sure he s a dog
idk yall last time i checked he was an armadillo

He’s a krill. 100% positive.
a while ago i noticed that in prairies cave there are 2 distinct beams of light
this is only in prairies cave area though, in every other area there is only one beam of light
П
Guys im the only one who believes that island at the horizon is very similar to home
Not really
I noticed that too, not sure where it might be
But the island on the right looks like eden home gates
Perhaps something in the future? 🤔
No, the wasteland is too huge
I heard its like an old meditation spot
There are other locations that are lil
Oh, I noticed today that a ton of new lil platforms have been added to Vault lv. 4, maybe prep for next season
Yep
I think the vault additions was also to help newer players reach the star
Firstly I thought it’s for traveling spirit but it’s too much for one spirit😂
More platforms near meditate spirit too
But will they ever make that star in Prairie cave easier
Yeah it was a struggle to climb those lolz
I dunno, I thought the steepness of the lv 4 goals mirrored the Valley theme
Which reminds me, lorewise does it make sense to consider the colored light areas as the hearts of their respective realm in a way?
Goal areas: meditate spirit endpoint, star locations
Ah yes
Having two stars on that lv also fits valley twins
What doesn’t make sense to me is wouldn’t the two lights therefore be on the woods lvl valley or wasteland ( woods and wasteland cause they’re next to valley) if they were for the valley twins?
It was easy to reach that light in Vault, just fly to the mini manta, recharge your light and then fly above. It's so exagerated to have all those platforms
I did it when I only had 4 wedges lol
Exactly
I think the platforms are nice
plus it was from a previous season, so it’s not like they were made for this star specifically
Anyone else notice that the building that the races begin in has the spirit tombstones lining the walls?
At least, something that looks like the tombstones
idk, the platforms are really cool! they make the room look very much cooler somehow, yknow? even if it's a little exaggerated, it brings the floor together ❤
anyone know why the rainforest ancestor is so mean lol
she just angery
@rare field they are also painted gold partially, which makes me think these are for prominent/important people, and they were put their to honor them
A little awkward
I never actually looked at that. That's really neat
never really noticed them until now 
I believe they are indeed tombstones
could that mean that every spirit stone thingy is for a grave?
The lore does drop clues about a big war having gone down, similar to Journey
Mmm. Not sure
cuz ive been thinking that n dang : ( kind of sad
I just wonder who they were fighting
makes me wonder now why some things are painted gold (some boats, the instrument equip place, these tombstones)
Yeah
@rare field I think it was like a civil war
The soul floats before it in social areas
i also wonder like, did sky go into ruin recently or a long time ago
I just wonder who they were fighting
@rare field the dark
@rare field not necessarily fighting just dead maybe
And krills were most likely warmachines made by the side that knew how to control the "power"
And soon turned on them or something, I think?
i also wonder like, did sky go into ruin recently or a long time ago
@spark notch a long time ago, it was said in intro
maybe the krill used to be those whale things
ohh ok i havent seen the intro since i first started playing sky
ty
i don't think any creatures were created artificially
i mean, maybe, the krills do sound pretty mechanical 
I was just reading the stuff up above and I saw something about the “two shields theory” can anyone give me an explanation on that? If I missed something I was reading I apologize and just tell me that it is up there!
basically what i got from it was a civil war
those who were in favor of the power diamonds (artificial power sources) aka shields with the diamond symbol, and those who were against it (sun symbol)
Oh that sounds cool! Thanks
What does lore even stand for? Lol I can’t figure it out
it's basically the story of the game
Little octopuses read everything
Lore
Whats the point of this chat
to discuss about lore
Lore doesn't stand for anything, it's old English for instruction or historic teachings
O
So in the elder cutscenes does the lifting the light to the sky thing represent reconnecting that elder to the rest of the stars?
I got screenshots of Crying Spirit last time I made it's quest. If anyone wants pictures of the whole cutscene ping me 
So in the elder cutscenes does the lifting the light to the sky thing represent reconnecting that elder to the rest of the stars?
@round musk yeh kinda!
I think to reconect elders to the sky you need to complete their constelations
The camera angling itself up to the sky is for the spirits to ascend
Hmm so maybe the light is just to guide the spirits upward?
Maybe 
Uhhh not rlly
Spirits and elders are way different
The elder cutscenes are something that shows a scene with a lot of symbolism and hidden meanings, I believe u were referring to the forest elder cutscene and she was showing how power diamonds were made
And u got the reconnecting part right sort of
We were told to save the elders and the way we do this is by using our flame to reconnect the elders with the light
So first we reconnect the elders with the light, and then by completing the constellation they are allowed to ascend fully back into the sky?
Second part is wrong
Completing the constellation is jus a game mechanic for us to unlock the elder hair
Sorry for spoiler
Who is Megabird?
a somewhat scrapped concept of basically god
Supposedly the Sky God?
basically creator of all things light
The light is supposed to represent altruism, so based on that it would make more sense if the light came from the creatures of light themselves
Having a sky god kinda defeats the point of that
I honestly am glad they scrapped it
Light doesn’t come from creatures
They are born from the light
They even talked about this in a live-stream
Yes, it's a form of reproduction
But it doesn’t originate from creatures
also i said 'creator of all things light' cause the question channels were blowing up with beta question spam, what i meant was created the skykids and elders and what not
idk if that s true though
Wherever it originated, it would still make sense if the creatures of light represent a self-propagating force of goodness in the present
Just a few more hours for Orange Light reveal

I’m a lil confused what ur talking about
vibatu #seasons-events-chat lol probably a misclick
Creatures of light....are jus creatures ..of light
Not rlly representing anything
Basically you don't need to answer to a higher power to be kind to each other
They don’t, it’s not like there’s a god in the sky world commanding everything and being bad
They were good from the beginning
And vibrato is welcome here 
vibrato is musical term/intonation of note???
Yeah
and yes i wish i could see the light too but my tablet went kaphut, more lore for us
It's also Jay's favourite nickname for me 
oh that s what table meant
If I would nickname you it would be......tcn
Tcn, hey can you fix my lightbulb it’s too bright
I doubt it's even possible to form a nickname out of my username lol
Cluepod!
HAHAA
I've been proven wrong
ahahahahaha

Anyways, I got screenshots to explain my crying spirit theory about how it changes POV's in the middle of the story
Spirit before we light them up: is bald, not golden if you ascended this spirit.
If you pay attention to spirit quests little calls will come out of the spirit whose memories you're reliving (I tried hard to get a screenshot of the calls but I couldn't make it
)
In here the calls are not made by Crying Spirit. They are made by the bald one at the far left
go on go on...
Omg does the bald one die
Here is when the pov changes. (Again, I couldn't time my screenshots properly for the calls
)
They are made by Crying Spirit
I will elaborate on the next screenshot, but I think this is when the spirits start to get sick/tired/start to deal with whatever thing ended their life
Yeah?
I know I know! After they get rescued out of the rocks someone must be really injured.
They probably didn't make it
So that's why the pov is changed, since bald is dead
3 are bald so it’s hard to tell which one ur referring to but keep going
Crying + Baldie spending time together?? (idk which one tho the other two are gone)
Baldie has plants on him so it might be a bit of symbolism he dies of illness or stress from overworking
Crying is alone. I don't know what the thingies on the floor are. Either those are their friend's cores after they died or something else.
Crying is alone and mourning the loss of friends, buried them properly herself
What does the cutscene show?
And that's the whole sequence! Crying is a story of a group of friends struggling to survive on this cave. I hope my screenshots are clear enough if anyone wants to visit Crying theories sometime in the future 
Tl;dr The pov changes from spirit to spirit until Crying finishes the story.
aka dies
Yeah
I think those were graves but she ended up moving them in the end
That makes more sense, thanks for the addition Jay! 
Here was my view of it, very related tbh
Another theory I had is that the crashing whale on the side is what caused the rocks to fall in the cave
To take this even further, the purple cape stress spirit with the bow and arrow is the one who accidentally shot the whale causing it to crash and that’s why she had the stress emote in the end
I remember purple cape's theory! Amazing how it all conects 
They could have been chillin' in the cave and then they are in a life-or-death situation 
How sad 
To take in even further, the diamond mask with the deep bow emote who accidentally cut down the tree is the reason why the purple cape missed and hit the whale 
To take it even furtherrrrr
Jk imma stop now 😂
But yes a lot of spirit memories connect with each other

VAULT
Everything 
I mean, VAULT
Everything has stuff yet to be discovered
Personally, wasteland battlefield keeps me awake
vault, battlefield and king are the ones for me
With the different shields and everything
why is it called battlefield? did they really help battles in there?
yeah huge battle
there's shields and spears
It's filled with weapons and broken defensive stick walls
stick walls
they re barricades i think
swords
Oooo yeah, that makes sense
BARRICADES that's the word. Sometimes I forget stuff, bilingual struggles 
byelingual lol i feel u im trying to keep up with like 6 languages
anyways valenxizaw you got the battlefield theory?
T-That's a lot. Good luck tho! 
I'm more interested in discussing vault but okay
Is the place you're transported to after the vault elder cutscene the top floor of vault?
Is the vault imbedded in rock?
Yes
And yes
Probably. That place scared me when I was a moth, the thunder was too loud 
Is the vault imbedded in rock?
@round musk that's what i think
theory is that vault is embedded in eden itself
and the summit of vault is the summit of eden
I find it hard to believe vault is just a dream. It clearly has a physical location
it was described as 'dream like' to show that it was in preparation for eden, almost like a simulation
I think people took that too far though
And at the area before Orbit, at the last part after whale crashes on the wall, if you angle your camera to the left you see the same statues at the top of Vault
i don't think is a dream... i think is like astral projection
Yeah I wondered about those statues...
Perhaps some kind of memory lane?
Do you think that could have been the throne room for when the elders visited Eden?
They do look like chairs doe
Or, those are their graveyards 
But I doubt elders can die, they're not like spirits
Just a devotion place i guess
They probably put it there for emotional effect so you think back to the journey past as you ascend
They did a good job ngl 
Does anyone have a screenshot? I'm curious to see whether the vault elder statue is in the center or not
Isle elder: "welcome back child!"
"Who are you?"
bro thank god there's nothing confirmed that Skykids lose their memory after rebirth or else I would cry
Does anyone have a screenshot? I'm curious to see whether the vault elder statue is in the center or not
@round musk I don't have any but I think it is in the middle just like in vault
So either it's the exact same structure we see in vault, or it was part of Eden, which would imply that the vault elder held a special place among the elders
Wow I never even thought about the lore this is such an interesting chatroom omg
lore is an interesting chatroom when it blows up lol
Yeah I only just found this chat today and my life is 10x better now
I am so glad this chat exists
You know that little light on skykids right like in the center— I heard a few people say that’s where skykids pull their candles from
candle CUBBY???
Daww
Literally giving gifts from the heart
Imagine throwing candles at crabs
that's just adorable
Also, there’s elders for every single structure/portal/kingdom....
Isle, Prairie, Forest, Valley, Wasteland, Vault....
Okay, well, In the murals on the walls of isle and many other areas
There’s an Eden kingdom too
So uhm,,,,,,
**eden elder?*^
What happened to them
Eden King
who are they where did they go
I bet there's fan art of that
It says “the darkness came” , and yadda yadda everything falls but like
There’s a battlefield area in Sky
I feel whoever would be the "Elder" of the Eye of Eden realm would be responsible for causing all the darkness maybe
There was a war
**eden elder?*^
@twilit tulip yes i think it exists but i think it was trapped in darkness at the begining of eden storm (probably tried to contain the energy but failed) and due to eden's power it's still trapped and forgotten
(That's what i think)
hmm
(It's not necesarely the true thing, is just my personal theory haha)
another theory my friends have is that the elder create skykids.
Think about this:
The prairie elder creates butterflies and whatnot. We see other elders like isle elder who uses the light you give them for their wand, the forest uses it for armor and weapons
I've read about why there is no Elder of Eden shown in game and was discussed here, it was the "King"
@abstract crypt
we call it King, not Eden elder
Does anyone know why the king was removed from the game?
no idea
So let’s say it’s something that’s alive, right ? The light. There’s a giant center in Eden that looks like a corrupted diamond structure that spits out all the darkness. What if that was the case in Eden and this Eden Elder/King was like “ohh ho ho let’s try to help eden out” BEFORE it was a mess, and then everything backfired and that’s when darkness truly became what it is
he tried to kill you in eden
I don’t think it’s him anymore though— I think he’s gone and Eden is just a mess that works on it’s own to kill skykids
Well ends up doing so anyway
yea, he was corrupted or smtg
he tried to kill you in eden
@that.cambion.nerd#1202 Can you elaborate on that?
Does anyone know why the king was removed from the game?
@round musk he was never put into the game, it’s all just theories for the players I think. There’s no official lore
Well not super in depth
Mmm
There's still the Eden mural in vault, which shows the king
Wasteland and eden look similar to industries
I feel humans were the ones who messed with diamonds first
so far from what i understood by reading this channel and the pinned docs, the Light is the one who created skykids and elders and creatures in Sky. And the theory is that the megabird in orbit is the Light
@round musk he was never put into the game, it’s all just theories for the players I think. There’s no official lore
@twilit tulip iirc, he was put in the game then removed
Huh..
oof copepod it didn t ping me
well
i mean
he was throwing thunder and rocks at you iirc
i can t remember where the pic is
yea, i saw the pic too
Guys im the only one who believes that this looks more like a wing instead of a bird
megawing xD
I thought those rocks are just spewing out of that giant diamond thing that backfired
the megabird isn t a physical object it s just an overseeing entity
that s a representation of it
^ what he said
I thought those rocks are just spewing out of that giant diamond thing that backfired
@twilit tulip yea, but before this, it was the King
Oohhh gotcha

Ok forget about my galaxy megabird theory haha
I know this may sound stupid but who was the one that tried to cook crabs?
It is possible to cook them at all?
Wasteland Elder got hungry after shanking the krill with his spear
Wasteland Elder got hungry after shanking the krill with his spear
@twilit tulip i will take this as canon

I think it has a spirit?
Could be
I just like to imagine Wasteland dad Shanking krill and feeling a little hungry after
There is one of those grey "guide the spirit" around that place I think
Maybe it was that spirit
iirc the crab kebab appeared around the season of belonging, so I always thought the wasteland spirit for that season was the one who did it
@twilit tulip also, from what i understood by reading here and the docs is that, the spirits were using light creatures like butterflies and mantas as a power source. that's the purpose of the jars, to keep the butterflies. they extracted the Light from them. The ghost mantas you see in vault is a result of that extraction but without completely draining it of its light. If they did drain it, the manta will turn to be a creature of Darkness, like the krills.
So, the spirits were divided into two sides. One who fights for natural light source, represented by the sun shield, and one who fights for diamond source (overextraction of Light ig), represented by the diamond shields. the Battlefield wasnt a war between spirits and krills but a war between spirits and spirits.
The krills are the result of that overextraction. they attack anything with light because they want their light back but they cant. Some say its original form was a whale, and some Light Dragons
sorry for the length xD
That's a very cool theory! I like it
it's just from my reading. but yea, i like it too. it's twisted in a way
spirit civil war???
yea, pretty much
Awesome theory
That’s an awesome theory
The debate over the use of magical light and artificial diamonds
I think dark dragons were just spawned straight from darkness, much like how creatures of light spawn from the light
The darkness grew from either the discord of the war or from the industry itself
valid theory. proof?
AKHFJSJFJSJFJSHD AHAHAHA
yeah it was from the industry
has a lot of waste
as seen in
well
wasteland 
My proof for this theory is in the first dark dragon area, where it rises straight from the polluted water.
It's kinda like how mantas will sometimes spawn from clouds
megakrill
devs, please share megakrill with us
I would love to see
and give megakrill a kiss
Thank you
there s always the dark creature prototype that will haunt your nightmares 
“There’s what appear to be two krill horns from an oversized krill (megakrill if you will) embedded right where the shipwreck is snapped in half “
m e g a k r i l l

devs
please share
thank you
looks like a saw or krill legs ngl cause it s serrated
Didn’t even bother reading this time
Anything interesting u guys talked about?
Cat there is no megakrill im sorry
a skykid can dream
Well we talked about the elder statues in the area before orbit
Anything else?
We discussed vault and its nature
Usually I would ping and quote u guys correcting everything but
Ehh
Too lazy
Ur theories are ur theories and tbh I’m getting a lil tired talking about the same thing over and over
Well, if there’s anything amazing or new u guys find, plz feel free to ping me
Do you think the vault is imbedded in rock?
Well here’s one thing I can say
It seems that the area you're transported to after the vault elder cutscene is the top floor of vault
Vault is located in the center of the mountain
Yea
Aka, top of the mountain
Well...semi top
So it is imbedded in the rock
Built into it
Oooo
My bad I was jus confused cuz u mentioned something totally random earlier
But yes sort of
It’s built in the middle of the mountain
It's interesting that it's thought of as a tower, but it really isn't
Hi! I'm guessing this channel is for discussion of the lore. 👀
Well it sort of it
awh
yup lore is here

Jay, your messages seem to constantly disappear.
internet is wonky
Is your wifi okay?
I joke around a lot
MINES ISNT
I keep falling for jokes. 
What....are u talking about
Ok well this channel is for discussing lore and the story of the game so
Welcome Bee 
Oh, huzzah! 
Before u say anything jus kno that this isn’t a lore answering machine
We barely have any answers and this chat is mainly for theory talk and speculations. But we do have SOOOMEE confirmed stuff
Oh I see! I'm guessing people already have these theories, but what if the whole place was just a country governed by different people, so it's like a countryside, then the city, and etc.?
Or literally just us travelling through the history of the place to tell us the story of how they fell?
Or literally just us travelling through the history of the place to tell us the story of how they fell?
shook
go on go on
what? really?? 
The devs have stated that the story is written in a linear way iirc
But, one important part
Our main mission for the skykids is to reconnect the elders with the light so they can return home
What is linear?
One after another
um. Alright. What does it mean by writing a story in a straight way?
Cluepod where did U get that actually
idk I feel like ive heard it in interviews as a passing comment multiple times
ah
U feel like?
Something about how they were orchestrating the framework of the game
So anyways
I meant to add this earlier but we weren’t jus put here to explore have fun and rescue spirits, we were given a mission so the idea isn’t all about exploring
Hmm, I'll see if I can find any interviews. I've never listened to any tbh.
Pretty sure they meant live-streams
But then again, I've been playing for 3 days.
They aren’t interviews
Ahhh
But there are notes from the live-streams if u wanna see them
Some is in the pins
Others....well u gotta dm me
idk I just googled sky interviews and read what came up
That was before I found this channel
Ima go scream in Spanish real quick
If anyone talks about the shield theory or the diamond production, ping me
Regardless, lets discuss the linear history idea
screams in byelingual
i ll be monitoring qnh channel but if there are new messages in here i ll read them immediately!
oh qnh channel died down lol
If anyone talks about the shield theory or the diamond production, ping me
@sly kestrel I thought you didn't want to talk about the same things over and over lol
im just kidding
K
Is the ark that's mentioned in the early concepts somehow related to this season's forgotten ark?
No
it s ark not arc they re different nouns lol
It’s spelled ark btw
They may have thought about their ark concept when making it but canon wise, they have no relation
That's what I thought, I just wanted to make sure
forgotton ark arc is a separate arc than eden ark's arc despite them both being arks
Couldn’t describe it any better
speaking of the ark, do you guys think that weird floating thing in front of the beam of light is... the ark or is it just like
idk a castle
I think it’s the castle
Well....not sure if it’s a castle for sure
But yk what I mean
U can see jars with mushrooms and the staff they use to catch floating light balls
speaking of the ark, do you guys think that weird floating thing in front of the beam of light is... the ark or is it just like
@desert sun which beam of light?
I could be wrong but if I remember correctlyyyyyy, there were actually dark plants there and it seems like something leftover from beta
the weird castle thing you fly by during ascent
i cant use beam of light anymore bc im confused on that subject lol
yes
I always thought it's a part of eden castle, but launched to the sky after the incident
What I'm still confused is... Is it the same castle that we can see floating from the realms? Or a part of it that's launched higher
its heavily implied to be right
Like... I feel that the floating castle we can see from the realms are not that sky high 😂
Yea
Prairie cave boat has paddles!
I still don't understand how they put it there lol
And for what purpose
There are large holes at the top of the cave
buuuut idk
multipuropse boats... for flying and rowing
yea that was probably like a garage for the boat
and they flew it through the top of the cave via the holes
cus it cant fit anywhere else
Why do they always have to land in the water?
Like
They can fly
And they can always land on the ground
But they land in the water
Is there a purpose for putting them into water and not onto the ground?
Does anyone know what the meaning of each light in the ark is?
remind me the colors again?
oooOooOooo
i thought the purple one was like 'memories' cause like it came from vault and it might be showing the past of the ark
also it s from the archives might i add
maybe just knowledge though?
When the vault spirit cast her purple magic, the tents and flags appeared
And they can appear and reappear unnaturally as if they aren’t entirely real
There’s actually an animation for how they appear and it led me to believe a few things
Illusion?
Wow this is great magical story material
Also I think purple is probably illusion, but I'm not sure what orange does so I can't say XD
When the vault spirit cast her purple magic, the tents and flags appeared
@vale ridge vault spirit?
probably the seasonal that cast the light spell
I think the red light are memories
Why do they always have to land in the water?
Like
They can fly
And they can always land on the ground
But they land in the water
Is there a purpose for putting them into water and not onto the ground?
@vale ridge
I think that it is because of the paddles
Maybe the paddles will broke if land on ground
Is any of you curious why krill is so bright in this painting?
Brighter than other paintings
Maybe it’s just the painting or the krills was once a light creature idk :/
I will go with krill once a light creature
look at the clouds
it s in the same paint as the krill
but it has a lower density
the krill has 100% density
so
there s no reason
Other paintings only have outlines of the shapes and people
Maybe it’s just the painting or the krills was once a light creature idk :/
@green tartan Maybe they were soldiers to defend the people... But got corrupted by darkness
The krill is the only painting that is full
geralt try checking out the power diamond and civil war theory
i think jay wanted to be pinged for this
@sly kestrel
here you go
lil convo bout power diamonds and krills
Eden is the only that has lighting right?
Were they trying to go to eden?

I think they are trying to go to eden

Brighter than other paintings
@upbeat juniper it's brighter because the painting size i think, like the ark painting is also brighter
maybe its jus because krills are dark creatures and they needed to fill that in
ntyways while servers are breaking anyone got a theory to share ?
Sounds quite reasonable 
i dont have any good ones atm
yall think these seasonal spirits died cus they fell off the boat-
positions are random enough
boat position is wrong though
My bad I’m late someone pinged me
But they weren’t going to eden
Jus cuz there was a storm doesn’t mean it was eden
Remember the season teaser when it showed the lightning
That wasn’t at eden
mhm, its possible there was a storm at wasteland
maybe the storm from eden was so massive it spread to wasteland
and it didnt affect vault bc.... idek
vault is vault
From my theory, the storm was caused Bc all of the 6 elements were together in one place and it attracted a storm. Compressed elements of earth, fire, wind, psychic, illusion, water alllll in one ark
In my opinion I think this was how it created the storm
i love lore
The vortex is something totally different
i doubt eden storm could reach wasteland anyway
Vortex isn’t near eden nor the wasteland storm
It could but I don’t think it could spread a storm into wasteland
but jay, wouldnt the storm have brewed from the moment they received the elements in the first place? and not waited until they were at wasteland?
also eden is two levels away from wasteland, and vault is TINY
Vault is inside the mountain so there’s no way it can reach it
that too
theres also a storm when you first start the game/quit eden halfway
That’s storm lock
Totally different
I’m actually quite curious about there being lore behind storm lock actually
sorry im not too well informed
Uh oh
It's an interesting theory...perhaps they were trying to fix eden...after all, the enchantments they were carrying, the glowing balls of light, have the power to create light, wind, purify the water, grow plants etc...maybe they were on a mission to restore the balance in Eden...
They weren’t on their way to eden tho.....
But it’s possible
They were on a journey towards prosperity
also the light seems a bit too little-ish
like in the shipwreck area it was only that tiny area which was healed
maybe they brought small amounts to test it out
Well don’t u think if it was too big, it would be too powerful to control
yeah
Next thing u kno
