oh i meant the krill in this case. they cant use the diamonds but they hurt anyone who can because they dont want anyone to use it

worn hill Jun 25, 2020, 1:34 AM

#

i think krills were protecting diamonds after eden was corrupted something happened to them and now they attack everything thinking they want to steal the diamonds

#

anyways let's talk about vault and how its connected to the real world

intriguing lede

tulip spire Jun 25, 2020, 2:41 AM

#

Okay so I know at least a few of you have seen the Forgotten Ark. there is a Krill at the beginning on the boat ride. Is there anything hidden around that area?

#

Or has anyone dared to explore that since there aren’t really any hiding spots?

celest spoke Jun 25, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

you have to work to get the ark krill’s attention IMO— it only sees you way up on the peaks just under its circuit

tulip spire Jun 25, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

I’ve almost been gotten by it once before and it startled me

glass forum Jun 25, 2020, 2:48 AM

Yes I have, not much is there besides mountains and clouds. The krill can catch you but it’s very slow

What does this mask(?)/symbol mean to forest?🤔

📎 SKY_20200625_102657_.jpg

#

I noticed that every temple gate have this
But i wonder what does it mean

finite vine Jun 25, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

I remember someone saying it was an old elder mask, dont take that as the correct answer though

#

(From concept art I think)

lethal stump Jun 25, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

yeah that was a concept for forest momma’s mask

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

hey also what is this talk about forest and wasteland being the same
@worn hill Not exactly the same, however same place, different time. The architecture is pretty much the same in both places, and you can see the diamond press in both. Wasteland would just be what happened to forest after all the production that’s going on. Along with some other things, they’re very similar.

#

i like to believe the krill invaded that place after the war
@worn hill As theories from others, I believe that krill were guards of some sort, protecting something. The power diamond explosion from Eden made them become what they are now.

#

they could have been used as transportation, or to protect goods
like massive guard dogs
@lethal stump As I said before, protectors/guardians of some sort.

#

by war do we mean « krills went on a bloody rampage » or « krills and spirits made strategic attacks against each other »
OR OR
« two groups of spirits used krill against each other » (civil war)
@lethal stump Probably neither. The TST might have happened before the eden diamond exploded, and krill formed afterwards.

#

Don’t take my theories for truth they are theories

lethal stump Jun 25, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

TST ?

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

Two shields theory.

#

Pinned messages.

lethal stump Jun 25, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

ah

#

tbh forest gives off some mine vibes, especially with all of the tunnels and such in the third area, as well as all of pinewood possibly being a massive mining operation
you get your dark stone there, then it’s transferred to wasteland with the jars of butterflies where they’re turned into power diamonds
the diamonds are then distributed to the realms (but vault and eden mostly)

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

That’s interesting. Never heard that before.

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 3:48 AM

@hushed steeple Not exactly.
@uncut bone intro saying all realms are separate

📎 IMG_20200625_091701.jpg

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:49 AM

#

True. However I do believe that they are connected by a timeline.

#

And they may be separate, but connected.

#

Say for example, the ending forest room.

#

That is the start of wasteland.

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 3:50 AM

#

Maybe they connected by a timeline
Because home is more like a hourglass

📎 image4.jpg

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:50 AM

#

Oh, I never saw that before.

#

That’s cool, and if it is, it backs up another theory.

celest spoke Jun 25, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

Hm, that reminds me of the various butterfly elevators— not exactly the 8-person elevator in Prairie, but the places where a long call brings a huge whirlwind of butterflies to boost you up to a specific place. Are they loreable?

The ones I can think of are in Prairie (muffin dome and maybe the hollow crater in front of the butterfly-call gate), Forest (mostly caves: entrance cliff, and the long vertical shaft with the star in it; maybe also the third treehouse), and I hadn’t previously considered the butterfly scrum in Graveyard, high in that last big pile before the stairs to Battlefield). I’d been wondering on the Prairie/Forest elevators were used to lift cargo of something...?

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

Yesh... But it seems they are separated

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

You remember the theory where all realms represent the different parts of life, correct?

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

Yup

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:51 AM

#

There’s another theory on how the realms connect.

sly kestrel Jun 25, 2020, 3:52 AM

#

I don’t rlly like visiting this chat but wasteland and forest were always separate realms, they jus both used the same factory and both were realms of industry. Nothing implies that they are the same realm

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:53 AM

#

It seemed like they would be, however I see your point.

celest spoke Jun 25, 2020, 3:53 AM

#

How would Forest develop a seacoast tho

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:55 AM

#

Basically, they represent mankind coming to this world. Isle is before anything happened, where man didn’t exist and earth was mostly desert. Prairie was before mankind came to earth, and everything was lush and nothing went wrong. Forest could represent the industrial revolution and what happened because of all the industry. Valley is what happens today, where most of the bad stuff is hidden, and you look in front of you instead of looking at the wastes that lay behind. Wasteland is the future, of what could happen.

#

@hushed steeple ^

celest spoke Jun 25, 2020, 3:55 AM

#

I still think of Forest Aunt more as R&D and Wasteland as bulk process/production

I believe They are always separate realms.....

uncut bone Jun 25, 2020, 3:57 AM

#

I would think the opposite, given how the wasteland elder saw what happened to wasteland after the crystals were used.

#

I believe They are always separate realms.....
@hushed steeple and yeah, I agree with you, they could be separate realms, however, each realm could represent mankind.

Ur probably gonna start something that says it is

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

In my opinion all realms are different areas in the same kingdom but different timelines

#

And those areas have some connecting places like forest temple in Wasteland, left there by devs as a hint

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 5:32 AM

#

I'm not going to talk about this again... SkyFaint

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:34 AM

#

Also the kingdom goes from its birth (Isle) through its high top (Valley) till destruction (Eden) as every civilisation has in its history, so I always explain that there's hundreds or even thousands of years between each stage

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 5:34 AM

#

Those are all separate area pCry

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

Im not saying those are all the same areas

lethal stump Jun 25, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

there’d have to be 100s of thousands of years if you’re implying isle became prairie became forest, considering plant growth and the like

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

I'm saying those are all a part of the same kingdom

#

Or the same world let's say

#

But different parts

#

Although we go into them in different timelines chronologicaly

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

So that would mean when we are going betweeen realms were just chilling for hundreds of years

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:40 AM

#

I'm not sure if I understood i correctly (I'm not English native) but I think that this kind of storm that happened in Eden could stratificate timelines and scatter winged lights randomly in them

#

You correctly *

#

Or I could be just wrong, I'm just trying to show my point and how I'm seeing the time at this point

#

I mean

#

The civilisation growth is way too different in each realm to say that those are different places in the same timeline

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

Maybe some people just prefer to have their realms different in terms of advancement

#

Plus Eden was their capital

#

So maybe the further they were the less advanced the realm is

#

Wasteland isn’t the most good looking since it’s fall but based on what we see, it could have been a great city

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:45 AM

#

I remmeber they in early Lore was some kind of Prince to King

#

That*

hushed steeple Jun 25, 2020, 5:45 AM

#

And eden was the biggest and most advanced i think

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:45 AM

#

Yeah

#

And since Wastelands downfall, now valley is the 2nd most advanced

#

Vault being first

#

I mean, look at the elevator with no wires or anything

#

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

#

Power diamonds just help to use it

#

There are some that can use magic without a power diamond, referencing the telekinesis spirit

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

Can't really kingdoms like Wasteland and Vault next to each other with such a difference in development existing just like this

#

Can't really imagine *

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

Well wasteland was probably some sort of fortress, and the last stand before vault

#

That’s probably why vault is so well preserved

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

So we just travel to the center of the kingdom?

#

"travel", it's not a sightseeing 😁

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

And vault is inside the mountain of Eden

#

You can see the top of vault in orbit

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

But why Vault is destroyed and showed there?

#

What's the explanation?

#

Wow really? I've never seen it this way

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

I need an explanation on this

#

Sorry I haven’t actually looked at the all the cutscenes for vault

elder wing Jun 25, 2020, 5:58 AM

#

I've always seen Vault this way: it was made after all the destruction of the kingdom as a reminder of past mistakes and also this stage is not literall as previous ones. As a place where we return the stone to the elders who are all there it's more metaphorical stage or half-metaphorical, cause of the working physical mechanisms there. The mantas there are transcendental, so this is higher level of state. According to my theory, after the kingdom was destroyed, all that the creatures could do is to build a library reminding of past events and wait for the rescue.

#

Hope it sounds clear

#

It's like a result of three steps back one step forward 😁

sturdy condor Jun 25, 2020, 6:02 AM

Hmmm

Water doesn't directly affect cape light (except for black water and rain, which my theory is the rain in hidden forest is contaminated)

#

What i'd like to say is that its simply a game mechanic

#

but if you want an explanation lore-wise, maybe the light thats being reflected off the clouds is what regenerates you and not the clouds itself

But words should work!

If you take a good look at the forest temple, INSIDE

Then go into wasteland, the area you first meet the krill, is the same place 👀

slow river Jun 26, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

It is similar 👀
Though there isn't sand dunes in forest like the beginning of waste so maybe forest got extremely destroyed?

celest spoke Jun 26, 2020, 2:59 AM

Meh Isle is mostly tutorial area w some leftover seasonal spirit nooks

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 2:59 AM

Isle of dawn worked as tutorial area in old beta

#

Well there's some mural in isle
Isle mural

celest spoke Jun 26, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

There’s the lil seasonal cave area to the left of the first section with glowy orb boat

#

Tho if you look at some of those “ramps” they kinda look like giant ship prows

sterile mesa Jun 26, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

Yeah, I thought that too.

#

Especially after doing the season of enrichment and seeing the ark with the murals on the sides

celest spoke Jun 26, 2020, 3:03 AM

#

I guess the cloud tunnel side-section has the first example of a definite vertical butterfly elevator

#

Like under the main island in Prairie birdsnest and several in Pineswood

sterile mesa Jun 26, 2020, 3:05 AM

#

Yeah. I think it is

celest spoke Jun 26, 2020, 3:08 AM

#

Tho I was also wondering about conceptual links btw Prairie Oreo section and Sunny Forest, as subsections that require collection of all spirits from main realm

#

So would the Isle elevator have been for lifting things up to the boats on top?

#

Or just calling the butterflies to herd them that way?

#

Bc I think of Oreo elevator room as related to compressing butterflies into jars (gate mural/gesture)

#

And Pineswood butterfly elevator up to star, maybe for lifting cargo up from mines into barges toward temple, hence drawbridge in main Sunny

#

And Wasteland butterfly elevator in graveyard... idk

sterile mesa Jun 26, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

Yeah, I don’t really know. If we assume that the society that came before us were also able to fly and glide like us then those could be used for transportation like we do now.

Personally I like that they changed eden to red, although power diamonds are usually blue, imo it kinda shows the player that this diamond is different than and went very, very wrong

empty thistle Jun 26, 2020, 2:07 PM

#

my theory the orbs made the place normal but overtime wore out and became weaker so it only worked for one area and the cause of the green is all the darkness that lived off of the life in the wasteland and the darkness grew because of the lack of light because of the clouds covering it up.

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

indeed

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

I would argue that Vault is the first two floors and the last floor (the one to Eden)

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

vault is situated inside the mountain

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

the rest are the dream

sly kestrel Jun 26, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

The only dream like part of vault is the elevator ascent
Everything else is physical, Bc they made the archives on the bottom floor

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

yeah

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Archives were confirmed to be a real place in Sky

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

the elevator was something exclusive to sky kids ONLY

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

well, we don't know that

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

the peak of vault is most likely up in the top of the mountain

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

if im getting that right

#

oh yee

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

since we see it in the orbit sequence

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

i will ask the question as old as time now: how and why did the stars fell

#

just why

#

wHYYY

#

yeh but

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

darkness came

#

and the stars fell

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

WHY DID DARKNESS CAME

#

thats the issue i have

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

the brightest lights make the darkest shadows

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

fair point

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

physically, darkness is merely the absence of light

#

but I'm not sure how much that has to do with Sky lore

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

With the stars united, our light was infinite.
But darkness came, and the stars fell...
Together, the fallen stars made a new home in the clouds.
If only they had listened...
A long time has passed. Now, I call to you.
Wake up, child. Bring our lost stars home.

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

in sky, the darkness is what happens when too much light is grouped in one place

#

its essentially mold

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

oh, you mean like dark plants

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

yeh

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

So I was thinking... What if the consecutive realms of Sky represented human history? For example:
-> The Isle is the initial period of mankind history, or prehistory. It is an untamed environment with little reference to bustling cities or large structures, and the emphasis is given to the temple, much like the communities at that time, which were leader-oriented. It also helps that it is the first realm of the game.
-> The Prairie is essentially the dawn of advanced civilization, which also focused on constructing tools and somewhat larger structures. The ambience, to my mind, deeply reflects the flourish of the ancient world, and the natural landscape with some ruins that complement it is a perfect resemblance of the world at that time
-> The Forest represents the Middle Ages, combining an elegance in the structures and grand caverns underneath the trees with an incessant rainfall damaging the players' light, which refers to the recurrent conflicts and wars that happened during this era.
-> The Valley can be interpreted in multiple ways. First, it signifies a great increase in wealth and quality of life, and the "races" can be seen as representations of the ever-expanding knowledge that mankind gained throughout the most recent centuries. Also, it could be that Valley is actually the present, and Wasteland and Vault are the future to come...
-> The Wasteland is essentially a place full of foulness and hazard. To me, it serves as a reminder of the Great Wars and the period of darkness that the world endured, with you, a glimmer of hope, rushing through to move on the next level.
-> The Vault is the current situation of mankind. Seeking only advanced knowledge and rising to the stars (literally, since the space race), humanity has reached a state of being able to provide answers to the most intimidating of questions and disentangling secrets of nature. However, if Eden is what is to come, well...

as in corruption

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

i would say stars just consumed too much power and collapsed

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

that doesn't make sense though

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

this is reminding me of world history

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

the stars fell because of the darkness

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

@past mountain
I just read the forest one... It represents teenage not middle age

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

It's a good theory, but I believe TGC would come out and say if it was a representation of history

#

@hushed steeple they're talking about the literal Middle Ages

#

like the Medieval period

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

but im just wondering shouldnt it be the other way around? stars fell, darkness came

#

Oh

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

the realms represent the human life cycle and the time of day

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

makes sense to me...

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

I know

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

no no

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

There's a reason TGC wrote it the way it is though

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

see

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

It just came to my mind, I don't mean to spark an argument

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

the darkness always existed

swift sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

Since Sky was hugely inspired by Journey, I bet you sky is a representation of life. They both have very similar ending as well

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

TGC said it represents the stages of life

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

something tipped off the balance (cough cough sky people) and made the stars fall

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

I don't doubt that sky is a representation of life

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

so ur saying... the darkness that was just liingering there wasnt too bad until it got unfathomable...

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

as in Isle being birth, Prairie childhood, etc. is canon

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:51 PM

yikes

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

i just add something

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

I'm curious what the child of light is

#

is it the shiny boy we see in the Eden sequence?

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

Imo they are souls of the fallen that guide you to save their world by granting you more wing power

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

no no

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

elders probably didnt care too much about the darkness that does come with light until the crap really hit the fan

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

it's confirmed they're imprints of the child of light

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

canonically, there is A child of light

#

as Raf said, it's the child of light

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

Guys I'm going to sleep... Gn
Happy theorizing SkyWave

#

oh man my brain...

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

I think canonically our skykids are connected to the child of light

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:52 PM

Then why is it Sky: Children of the Light

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

also, all the sky cosmetics are indeed made of light I've noticed

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

how have you noticed that

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

so there is the child of light as well as children of the light (I believe that's us)

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

once our flame runs out, we return to our "real" form

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

hence the name "skykid"

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

oh yess

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

which begs the question, what are we?

#

are we golems?

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

I think it goes that our skykids are the children of light that are connected to the child of light somehow

#

if that makes sense

we're the children of megabird

I do believe that, Raf

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

and megabird is The Light™

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:54 PM

except that megabird isn't confirmed canon cries

#

a lot of things would make more sense if megabird was canon

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

what is the megabird in sky?

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

so

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

it's a hypothetical god figure shown in concept art

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

in concept art, megabird was/is the Light

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

aha

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

it's the manifestation of the Light

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

megabird is like the creator, and we were reborn through the megabird

#

however, in the actual game, we really only see hints at what could be the megabird

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

maybe we are reincarnations of spirits

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

all creatures of light live, go to eden, die and get reborn through megabird

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

in concept art

#

it's not confirmed canon in game though

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

oh! I just had an idea

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

what?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

the spirits aren't creatures of light

past mountain Jun 26, 2020, 6:57 PM

they are civilians that.. died?

I think that's canon??

#

yeah, pretty much

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 6:57 PM

but they still turn into statues when they die

much like us

so what I'm thinking is

what if sky kids are part light part ancestor?

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 6:57 PM

wanna.. discuss about forgotten ark?

we're part light part star

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 6:58 PM

technically, TGC confirmed that they are separate "species"

#

species isn't the absolute best word, but it's what we have

#

elders =/= spirits =/= skykids

there is a singular child of light referenced in the livestreams

what if the child of light, is the Eden elder?

from the video in the cutscene

if there is an Eden elder

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:02 PM

this means that whoever was in charge of the sky kingdom wasn't a star

all the constellations are connected to the central creature

raf i 100% agree

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:06 PM

the child of light is a conduit for the powers of the elders

#

when it disappeared, the elders became powerless

#

and they needed light

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:06 PM

only when we return do they regain their powers

so that makes it very likely that we're connected to the child of light

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

what if it was more that the elders broke the union of their powers, which sort of severed their ties to the child of light

#

as in, how would the child of light disappear?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:08 PM

they created artificial stars

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:13 PM

#

yeah

#

I think that's canon

#

that we're absorbing parts of the thing we're connected to

#

from the doc
"Winged light: “Throughout the world there are these imprints this child of light, a character you are connected to and have a relationship with” frequently called shiny bois by devs and in one later livestream “shiny bois” is referred to as something they should maybe not say while streaming, spoiler maybe?"

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

and I think that also proves the shiny boy in the Eden sequence IS the part of the child of light inside us

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

Hage included this note though
"Note: Interesting these first two videos refer to winged light differently (imprints of a child of light vs children of light"

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

what if the child of light was fragmented when the darkness came

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

so I was looking at the cutscene again as well

#

and I noticed that while the child of light doesn't appear to fall with the elders, the icon does seem to make its way down to Eden

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

indeed

#

that leads me to believe it's not tied to one physical location

#

instead, it's omnipresent

#

that is, if it did fall

#

in the same way

#

are we thinking fall in the same way as like God threw Lucifer/Satan out of heaven or like the fall of Adam and Eve
if that makes sense

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

I believe they tried to use the child of light as an energy source, hence the Eden diamond

#

and that's how it fragmented

#

both the diamond and the child

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

I'm slightly confused about timeline too

#

are you saying that they were in Eden and doing the whole child of light as energy source thing before they fell?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

no no

#

they fell and they created the artificial stars

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

the power diamonds?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

wanting to grow even more powerful, they attempted to harness the power of the child of light

#

yes

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

that would explain the second part

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

of course, you can't just harness the power of God and the diamond shattered, creating the storm and destroying the sky kingdom

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

that makes sense

#

so what would be the cause of the original fall then?

#

just an arbitrary darkness?

#

or like the intent to harness the child of light

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

I really don't know tbh

#

I think it's because of actions the spirits were taking

#

not the elders

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

~~tbh, the intent to harness the child of light would also fit with a sort of biblical idea~~

#

as Satan was thrown out because he wanted to be God

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

that's essentially what the elders wanted to be

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:22 PM

#

why would the spirits be involved in the fall of the elders?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:22 PM

#

hmm

#

well, the spirits existed before the elders fell

#

they most likely lived in balance with the light

#

but scientific advanced took its course and the balance was thrown off

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

We know that the spirits appear to be made of light, but are often found with a core of darkness that needs to be melted away

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:24 PM

well, they're basically ghosts

I also noticed these lines

the last picture is the one that sort of leads to us

it doesn't actually connect to us, which I thought was interesting

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

a fragment of light coming from the storm

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

it's coming from above Eden

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

the winged light?

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

also, I noticed that the lines are yellow rather than white

#

the elders fell in white lines

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

ooh you're right

#

elders are white

#

winged light is yellow

#

and spirits are blue

#

then when you use winged light to ascend them, they also turn yellow

#

so it seems that by ascending the spirits, we're restoring the bond they had to the child of light

#

and when a constellation is completed, the respective elder can return to orbit

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:28 PM

we're like the opposites of the spirits

a dark shell with a light core

we can even see the light core on the sky kids

#

📎 SKY_20200626_121518_.jpg

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

I'm wondering if this implies that we already existed and are a sort of host for the light (maybe even the child of light) or if we were a shell created for this purpose

#

skykids are hollow

#

at least, the best I can tell

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

we're vessels for the light

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

absolutely

#

but were we specifically made as vessels, or were we chosen as vessels

#

if that makes sense

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

when our fire is snuffed out, we go back to our original "vacant" form

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

oh true

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:30 PM

so I think we were made to be vessels

very similar

this only has 2 bars, and it's straight

but it's very close

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

If we absorb light naturally, then perhaps the last light that fell and awakened us got absorbed in us. Given that our default clothes look like wax, wr may have carefully set ourselves up not to harm another fallen star

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:33 PM

Kind of hollow look

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:34 PM

I really think the child of light was stuffed in the Eden diamond and then shattered, with fragments forming the children of light

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

like the winged light?

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

yeah

#

and of course one ending up in each sky kid

I'm pretty sure you've mentioned this as well, but a while back, there was a little discussion about this scene taking place inside the diamond

#

which would fit with your theory

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:38 PM

I mean, that pillar of light is the one seen coming out of the diamond

#

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

the hint i see that we are the vessel for the light is when we gave all our lights to the dead and lost all our stars we turn into a dead vessel in which we find the core of light our self

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

the one in the Eden sequence is completely opaque

cold steppe Jun 26, 2020, 7:41 PM

it's also an exact mirror of us

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:41 PM

I think "canonically" there's only one sky kid

#

much like how in journey there's "canonically" only one red cloth creature

any ideas why the water at forest would cause you to lose light?
@hushed steeple would like to add to this question aswell is, when you stop the rain, water isn't toxic anymore and not taking away the light from you, does it mean that the rain is toxic?

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

^^^

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

The quest for the forest light orb did suggest that the forest is a cold place

Ironic since the place that comes to mind as "cold" is the place literally covered in ice and snow

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:52 PM

#

how can skykids go underwater in valley but die from the rain in forest

lean fable Jun 26, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

reminds me of that one game where Norman Reedus plays in

#

The rain made them age quicker/die quicker

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

the symbolism behind the rain in forrest i see in the adolescence when we all go through rainy times, it hurts and it should be like this.

#

when we grown up water dont hurt us anymore

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

Rain would be better at removing stuff on our skin and would force our cape closer to us. Perhaps the problems are caused by indirect results

modern cradle Jun 26, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

@mellow sable maybe coz there's no 'rain' in the valley.. just guessin'..

mellow sable Jun 26, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

valley is the rapid descent to a mid life crisis

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 7:58 PM

#

If we just go into the water, the water isn't as able to pull things off us, and our cape has room to allow our light to stay away from unwaxed areas. Then when we get out, our cape can be quickly dried

#

If we go into the rain, our capes stick to us and our wax layers are slowly stripped. Try to warm up and more water comes. Try to dry off and more water comes. Try to get distant and you know... More water

hushed steeple Jun 26, 2020, 8:36 PM

#

do we have an explanation why in citadel is that much energy that we recharge so fast also while flying?

short owl Jun 26, 2020, 9:00 PM

#

I have heard that it used to be an aviary... Perhaps it has to do with birds, or perhaps it's because the light is just excited to be there

#

Valley is unlike any other area in Sky - everything wants to go wooosh and nothing is particularly serious.

gray bridge Jun 26, 2020, 9:05 PM

#

is that why valley is more primarily focused on games/entertainment (from the stadium and all that)

#

also i don't think water actually affects skykids, it's just a matter of whether it's polluted by darkness or not

#

hidden forest is quite a dark place so that might be why stuff like crabs and darkness plants eventually developed over time

#

(am kinda new around here but i'm really interested in the lore)

I just rechecked mochi’s glyph pins and think there’s a minor new change: the prayer spindles on Prairie’s central star island (between the 3 belltower islands) are now mixed silver/gold instead of pure gold— they’re entirely gold in the header pic for one pin.

#

But I was thinking about the Oreo area again, and there’s obv somekinda pocket dimension or teleportation involved— could that actually be part of the Forest ecosystem in some way? It’s the first place on the map that has cloud trees, tho noobs will always see regular Forest first

#

And then there’s the Prairie cave section with mini-river that requires a Forest spirit— idk where any of this is going, but if you fly high enough in the Oreo zone you can see ocean... maybe it was originally direct butterfly jar transport to Forest??

Maybe the boat was destroyed by a mortar strike instead of a krill attack

kind pagoda Jun 27, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

So, everyone knows that in wasteland, a war was fought. There are evident signs of a battle. Well, I think that the entire war started because of wastelands resources. The realm had lots of water, which was good for trading by sea, and it also had much ore and stones, which were transported to prairie to make the stone butterfly jars, and build temples. They used the resources up, which is why the water and air is polluted, and a war was fought for the remaining resources. Also, the krill were rode into battle, and since the war was finished long ago, they still roam the land, killing off "enemies" ⊙﹏⊙

Thx bruh

jade river Jun 27, 2020, 1:19 AM

I would like to believe that in this war where 2 main factions

The ones who wanted to use the light in a more traditional way

And the elders who used light to make diamonds

kind pagoda Jun 27, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

Ooh

#

Yeah because there must have been lots of light. Think about the ark. The patches of cloud that are cleared up are super bright.

jade river Jun 27, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

The defenses in wasteland (specially in battlefield) seem to be a defense by a civilization much smaller than their enemies, probably the ones who created the eden diamond tried to defend it from their enemies (people of light)

#

Krills are definetly machines made to patrol certain areas

#

As in the upper swamp we can see how a krill emerges when a player reaches a certain area (probably triggering their defense sistems)

kind pagoda Jun 27, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

And the opposing side were the ones who used the krills beam to seek out hiding soldiers

jade river Jun 27, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

Exactly

#

Also in eden there are 2 different types of building

kind pagoda Jun 27, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

The people of prairie must have sent big numbers to fight, because the krill seem to know the manta is an enemy. And mantas are present in prairie

Maybe Eden was once a great civilization, before the war

1 the king's castle (mostly the building that is floating with the eden diamond)

2 the industrial tubes

#

This proves that eden was a battlefield as we can see frozen skykids or soldiers in that area

The krills patrol with the sole purpose to DEFEND the eden crystal

hushed steeple Jun 27, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

i wonder who was the opponent... or what

jade river Jun 27, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

This proves that the eden crystal was placed intentionally at the top of the mountain

I think the wasteland people fought against most of the other spirits in the other realms.

hushed steeple Jun 27, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

maybe corrupted civilians idk

#

some of the spirits werent even fighting they were just trying to survive

#

I think the gw people imported krill from eden, where they used to live naturally

@hushed steeple i believe there was 2 sides

The ones who used diamonds as their power source

And the ones who refused this type of energy (a resistance maybe?)
