oh- my message be like pOOf ig i said something that the skyserver doesn't like

short owl
#

Don't feel stupid NiKu, the theory is a spiraled out of control crack theory. It probably requires some tangents to follow...

simple hare
#

is there actually a yt vid or a text that explains everything thats connected with the theory bc my brain is likepFIRE

lethal stump
#

this theory was made yesterday pFIRE

simple hare
#

oh holy

#

okay thats

#

oh

Don't feel stupid NiKu, the theory is a spiraled out of control crack theory. It probably requires some tangents to follow...

ah. I was trying to key word search

lethal stump

lol

#

do you think we could get this added to the theories doc ?

hushed steeple
#

What did i miss

short owl
#

Introducing lore moth to the mind control theory

#

Should probably give them lore doc too

lethal stump
#

yeah, it’s in the pins

hushed steeple
#

So many pins

short owl
#

The pins are a bit disorganized. Maybe we need a master pin which organizes things

lethal stump
hushed steeple

I can't find the lore doc sqwarlockDed

Y'all have anything else to do than lore?

lethal stump

no

hushed steeple

Damn, that's sad

I'll send here when I am done

#

@lethal stump good to know. I want a summary of what happened pEyes

ive literally been talking on this chat all day
@lethal stump this

short owl
#

I cannot flip sort order so I can't see how long I've neen here

#

We converted a mod

lethal stump
#

well it was mostly explaining stuff to lore moffs

#

yes and that

mortal viper
#

any new theories?

lethal stump
#

nah it’s mostly been Null and I talking about the mind control theory

simple hare
#

so i red a bit of the theory stuff and i slowly get it

#

question: is megabirb still alive? is that known?

short owl
#

We see it at the end so... I think so

lethal stump
#

can you kill god ?

short owl
#

I can try

lethal stump
simple hare
#

well thats some really interestinf question

#

you can answer to that question with both, yes and no. the important part is which role god plays in your eyes

lethal stump
#

the king probably thought yes

#

god in my eyes is a dictator no matter the religion SkyLOL

short owl
#

Where was it determined that Alef was hated btw?

lethal stump
#

it wasn’t determined, that’s a theory

#

he couldve been loved for all we know

short owl
#

Aww sky nod is only for nitro

#

Oof

simple hare
#

bruh it got deleted imma cri

short owl
#

If you don't know what is setting off the bot delete, maybe ask a modm

lethal stump
#

skybot is ruthless SkyLOL

short owl
#

They can see messages and let you know what bork it.

simple hare
#

if they're just a creator but still a, well, living being(yk what i mean?) then probably yes

#

but if god is like the universe, has no end and is just not understandable for us, then not.

lethal stump
#

megabird has no gender stickerHeart

simple hare
#

if the world needs a god to keep going, if they're the thing that makes us breathe and exist that won't be possible

#

whoop

where i live we have to label a god ahsjaj sorry

short owl
#

An alternative: if Megabirb god is connections, you can create different connections and replace old god

lethal stump
#

it’s ok

short owl
#

Relationship ended with megabird. MegaKrill is my new best friend

simple hare
#

An alternative: if Megabirb god is connections, you can create different connections and replace old god
@short owl

but replace with what?

steep coyote
#

can you kill god ?
@lethal stump
Intoner Zero want to ask you something

lethal stump
#

who ?

steep coyote
#

Oof

#

Reference ahahah

#

From a game

lethal stump
#

the only game i play is sky stickerGloomy

steep coyote
#

Oh sorry Hahaha

simple hare
#

ig this channel will be my second home in future because its hella interesting here even if i'm still a brown caped cake head newbie herestickerGloomy pMoth

#

why is the name of megabird megabird?

short owl
#

Cause it's big, a bird, and supposedly made of many many light beings

#

Potentially a collective consciousness

lyric isle
#

still a brown cape over here

short owl
#

... Which... Would suggest mass telepathy at minimum... And GUYS THE MIND CONTROL THEORY NEEDS TO LOOK LESS VIABLE SOMEHOW

lethal stump
simple hare
#

sbhasv

lethal stump
#

so the elders were literally detached from megabird ? so MB didn’t know what they were doing at all ?

simple hare
#

oh and thanks for being nice veterans and takin the mothy me around

#

so the elders were literally detached from megabird ? so MB didn’t know what they were doing at all ?
@lethal stump

in the cutscene it says they just fell. if megabirb is the narrator they probably didn't knew what was going on

lethal stump
#

wouldnt MB at least know that they’d been cast out ?

eager vapor
#

What cutscene?

simple hare
#

maybe they're a lazy god

lethal stump
#

opening cutscene

simple hare
#

sneepin all day

eager vapor
#

I see

simple hare
#

i'm still curious who the narrator is

#

the narrator talks to us as their child

short owl
#

I believe an official source said it' isle elder

eager vapor
#

I haven’t heard a voice on isle cutscene, only singing

lethal stump
#

really ?

#

@short owl wh o?

simple hare
#

but wait

megabirb is a god, right? so in the country where i live god is seen as our 'father' (labeling, again)(not sure if its like that in other countries too).means that we are gods 'children'. if we connect that to sky, the narrator could be megabirb because they're a god and calls us out as their children.

short owl
#

Uuuuh hold on I didn't actually pay that close attention. It was posted shortly before I said isle elder was already lost (the first time)

lethal stump
#

really ? i didn’t see that

short owl
#

Looking for it. Phone has limited search tools

lethal stump
#

oof

#

who sent it ?

short owl
#

For example no date limiter

#

Idk! If I could find my message I could scroll up to it

lethal stump
#

wait wrong one

simple hare
#

got a question, again, but not connected to any theory. do you guys think that the cape is a part of the skykid? like some kind of body part that's important for their lifes? or just a cape out of light?

lethal stump
#

it’s made out of light iirc
that’s why we can endlessly change them

simple hare
#

ye

#

but is it like a source of light that's important to the skykid?

lethal stump
#

no, thats our heart/candle

simple hare
#

or is it just to weeee around

#

okie

#

then imma head back to ingame still have to candle run some mapspFIRE

short owl
#

I cannot find it, sorry

lethal stump
#

oof

#

the two theories that make the most sense are
king is the narrator
and megan is the narrator

#

MEGAN
HECK

#

MEGABIRD

short owl
#

Who is Megan?

lethal stump
#

I MEANT MEGABIRD

short owl
#

For the next 24 hours, Megabird is Megan

woven tundra
#

megan pHelloKrill

sly kestrel
#

yes

short owl
#

Anywho... What if Alef was the one who broke Megan's control by collecting energy and stashing it in places of memorable importance?

#

Or just collecting it and trying to contain it, causing him to feel too unstable to be around others.

hushed steeple
#

Did i miss anything

short owl
#

When Eden corrupted, he may have made the journey in himself to try to correct the crystal, but for all his energy, he still wasn't strong enough, and 63 physical imprints were left behind.

#

@hushed steeple not really...megabird is Megan for 24 hours though

lethal stump
#

what about all the WL ?

short owl
#

Was getting there

lethal stump
#

no theyre Megan forever

short owl
#

Yiesh I wasn't gonna hold it over you that long

#

Anyway

hushed steeple
#

👀

short owl
#

As they tried to restore the crystal, they lost light (as we do), and the memories that he had as he had crammed that light inside him.

lethal stump
#

they as in alef ?

short owl
#

Each bit of light he lost manifested where his memories led them.

#

Ye, as in Alef.

mellow sable
#

I know for a fact SOMEONE stuffed the CoL in the Eden diamond

lethal stump
#

this implies he consumed excess light though

short owl
#

After 63 harsh failures, Alef begged for help from the one being that they never wanted to contact again, and ultimately surrendered, but not without a trick up his sleeve. He may be lost, and his memories destroyed, but whoever megabird sent to help would be free

mellow sable
#

the cutscene before the ascent takes place in the diamond

short owl
#

@lethal stump indeed it does. Perhaps on purpose from the other elders.

hushed steeple
#

What did I just miss?

mellow sable
#

our skykid merges with the CoL(?) and we ascend

#

I also believe that canonically there's only ONE skykid

lethal stump
#

i like your theory null

hushed steeple
#

I see more king propagand

lethal stump
#

same Raf

hushed steeple
#

But what is it about this time?

mellow sable
#

it wouldn't make sense if there were canonically multiple skykids

normal berry
#

how so?

mellow sable
#

only OUR skykid can restore the light

lethal stump
#

exactly

mellow sable
#

only one skykid can appear in elder cutscenes

short owl
#

The only child in the elder lineup is the prince

mellow sable
#

the king is either the CoL or a spirit

#

as he descended from the clouds

#

not orbit

lethal stump
#

do you mean ascended ?

short owl
#

We were made very similar to him as well. Notibly with more darkness than a normal child of light. (This may have been a trick by the Prince to keep us out of Megan's control)

mellow sable
#

the prince doesn't exist in the current lore of sky

#

only the king

#

iirc ash said so

#

also, king=eden elder="can't be saved anymore"

#

so that debunks the "the king is the CoL" theory

#

because we DO save the CoL

normal berry
#

so who's the CoL

mellow sable
#

the thing we see in the Eden diamond and the intro cutscene

#

all the realm constellations were linked to it

normal berry
#

personally i thought the one at the eden cutscene was yourself

#

as their height changes based on your own height

mellow sable
#

I personally believe that, while there is only ONE child of light

short owl
#

What did ash say? I know the prince is not an elder we can save

mellow sable
#

there's multiple fragments of it

#

seeing as the Eden diamond is shattered

#

one of the fragments was combined with a wax body and given life

#

and that's us

normal berry
#

tbh the reason i dont really agree with the there is only one cannon player thing is cause its just so lonely

mellow sable
#

but that's the point

#

it's a ruined kingdom

lethal stump
#

there’s no one but us

#

which i still believe is the prince, FITE ME pFIRE

normal berry
#

especially for a game that focuses on help and others, otherwise it would just be Journey all over again

mellow sable
#

again

#

that's the point

#

you get help from other players but ultimately, only YOU can restore the statues

short owl
#

One of us, who has found a way to force ourselves to break out of mind control, lost everything we worked so hard for because of one mistake, and is being forced to see that again and again

mellow sable
#

?????

normal berry
#

ah yes the mind control theory

mellow sable
#

mind control???

short owl
#

We live again and again through the same events

mellow sable
#

no but see

lethal stump
short owl
#

The timeline is wrong for us to go backwards, unless we lose our point in time as well

mellow sable
#

the game outright states you're being reborn

lethal stump
#

that’s not what Null is referring to i think

short owl
#

Though we may well be reborn back to the moment of Alef's surrender to Megan's control (when he lost all hope of calming Eden himself), just to add insult to injury.

short owl
#

Alef is the prince. Right?

mellow sable
#

there is no prince

short owl
#

I'm not doin a name flip?

mellow sable
#

the prince was a character purely in concept art for sky

#

he has no current lore affiliation

lethal stump
ocean ivy
#

We kinda discuss like
Lore mentioned from all different concepts of sky.
So yea that was the name of the prince when he was around I’m p sure.

mellow sable
#

but hmm

ocean ivy
#

They were all absurdly specific gender neutral names

mellow sable
#

the king isn't "there like the rest of them"

lethal stump
#

cause the king is us—

mellow sable
#

the only other beings in sky that we know of are the imprints and us

#

but skykids aren't related to the elders

ocean ivy
#

Statues in wasteland:

lethal stump
#

physically no
soul wise...maybe

mellow sable
#

our "soul" is a star

lethal stump
#

but the stars are elders, so that immediately makes our soul an elder pSquint

mellow sable
#

by star I mean a winged light

ocean ivy
#

We are all NFC chips
(Ba dum tss)

mellow sable
#

when we lose all of them we die

lethal stump
#

but we still have our soul

ocean ivy
#

Well- “”””””die””””””
We need to be kid friendly here

lethal stump
#

we still exist without the WL

mellow sable
#

and by collecting more we grow stronger

#

we don't, actually

ocean ivy
mellow sable
#

without ANY WL the skykids turn into lifeless husks

lethal stump
#

what’s the blue thing when we shatter then ?

ocean ivy
#

Weird

#

That sky kid there has no winged light

mellow sable
#

yeah see like

#

there's the wl we collect and the one we start with

#

I dunno if that's a gameplay or lore thing

ocean ivy
#

You don’t really.. start with one

#

winged light

mellow sable
#

I prefer to think it's a gameplay thing

ocean ivy
#

When you start you got no wings

lethal stump
#

no you don’t
you have a soul and a body
thats it

mellow sable
#

intro

#

a star falls to our character

ocean ivy
#

That’s the character

#

We are falling

#

It’s either a story telling thing, we the player descend to the ground, or a soul and then some possess a husk it found

mellow sable
#

also, skykids and sprits are the same blue balls of light when they die

#

curious

#

and they both turn into weird husk things

lethal stump
#

blue seems to equate with death

mellow sable
#

yep

#

krill, rain, diamonds

lethal stump
#

it’s also part of the darkstone concepts, representing corruption and isolation

mellow sable
#

the carry spirits are yellow but that's a gameplay thing I think

ocean ivy
#

Elders are a kinda exception as blue is a color pallet it seems
But in old, old tomcepts they were on the blue power scale because of that old lore

short owl
#

The first wl we get is locked inside us. There is no escape for them, unlike the wl we collect which rests in a cape and can be knocked out.

mellow sable
#

but also a weird observation I've made

#

The first wl we get is locked inside us. There is no escape for them, unlike the wl we collect which rests in a cape and can be knocked out.
this

short owl
#

It can't help us fly because it is trapped

ocean ivy
#

Orange spirits being carried specifically and exclusively are for seasonal spirits and that’s just game logic
Spirits become yellow when we give them star candles, presumably maybe allowing them to properly ascend

lethal stump
#

but where does it come from ?

mellow sable
#

a fragment of the CoL?

#

yeah I noticed that

short owl
#

But in trapping it, we also kinda free it since it is drained enough that Megan can't manipulate it.

mellow sable
#

spirits start as blue but become yellow

#

perhaps they're blue because they haven't truly been "freed" from the darkness?

#

and by giving them AC, we allow them to fully return

lethal stump
#

return to the control of megabird pFIRE

hushed steeple
#

Imma sleep soon I'll miss so much sqwarlockDed

mellow sable
#

I've noticed yellow spirits give more wax than blue spirits in orbit too

#

at least I think they do

lethal stump
#

they all give 4 don’t they ?

mellow sable
#

iirc yellow give 6 or something

#

again, this is a personal assumption from what I've noticed

orchid crypt
normal berry
#

wonder why there are random candles sitting around the landscape?

orchid crypt
#

functionally speaking, i think the orbit and pity stars fulfil the same role

mellow sable
#

yep

#

orbit stars can't get knocked out unless all your regular WL is gone

ocean ivy
#

That’s probably just game mechanic more than lore

mellow sable
#

yeah

#

imagine losing a wing and having to go through orbit again to get it

normal berry
#

Imagine loosing a wing

orchid crypt
#

prior to picking up that star though, the capeless sky kid technically has no winged light

#

it's the same state as what you are in orbit before you pick up any wing buffs

mellow sable
#

ooh

#

actually

lethal stump
#

all we have is...light

orchid crypt
#

it's just that the sky kid hasn't been extinguished

mellow sable
#

that brings up a good question

#

how were we created in the first place?

normal berry
#

megabird?

lethal stump
#

i think Megan created us

#

made us half prince darkness, half light

normal berry
#

theres no way to confim if canon but thats my best assumption

orchid crypt
#

i don't really have an answer for the creation of the sky kid, but in terms of what we've seen from gameplay...there's a chance that the sky kid's been reincarnating for far longer than what we've played

normal berry
#

or the scattered remains of the king took its own form

lethal stump
#

wouldn’t we have blue eyes then, Ri ?

ocean ivy
#

Or some random lightless body was found in the isle and they just took that OreoScream

lethal stump
#

there had to be some meddling from Megan for us to have any semblance of light

sinful anvil
#

does it make sense that our hands can go through our capes? sometimes there’s a glitch that skykid’s hand can go through the cape

normal berry
#

wouldn’t we have blue eyes then, Ri ?
@lethal stump i mean whos to say we had to look the same

lethal stump
#

i think that’s just graphics, palechild

orchid crypt
#

if the cape isn't fully solid, perhaps

normal berry
#

also if you wear enchantment masks your eyes glow blue

mellow sable
#

all the cosmetics are solid light

hushed steeple
#

how were we created in the first place?
@mellow sable
According to my theory, sky kids were created for the sole purpose of trying to save the eye of Eden, but when too many fell, we were then tasked to save our fallen brethren and also help the spirits and elders along

lethal stump
#

Yellow = light
Blue = darkness
if we were just the king in a different body we’d have blue eyes since he’s « darkness »

mellow sable
#

how else would a dead guy give us an ikea table

lethal stump
#

i k e a t a b l e

normal berry
#

but my theory is his soul was destroyed and shattered, but were eventually reincarnated into the skykid race. a sort of redemption for him, if you will

lethal stump
#

i see it as a punishment ngl

#

Megan trapped alone the elders in their own outside-of-spacetime cells, but the king being the « worst » of them has to die over and over again for less and less reward every time

hushed steeple
#

But from what we see, in Eden itself and plenty of art, the king isn't a good guy.
I'm sorry Brick, but I just can't see him as being the good guy

lethal stump
hushed steeple
#

I think he is a human

normal berry
#

why? you are granting mercy to the ones affected by the eden explosion. considering if we are the incarnate of the king, that would be fixing your mistakes

hushed steeple
#

Which is why he turned evil and corrupted

orchid crypt
#

is "megan" the megabird, or did i miss some lore in the last few days?

lethal stump
#

megan is megabird

#

it’s a joke name

short owl
#

Could still be a prison... But perhaps one that was tampered with to grant more freedom than expected

normal berry
#

Which is why he turned evil and corrupted
@hushed steeple thats from the concepts, we dont know the current canon story of the king

short owl
#

Yeah... I was gonna just do that for 24 hours but apparently this is gonna be forever now

normal berry
#

and you call that hulking mass a human?

hushed steeple
#

@hushed steeple thats from the concepts, we dont know the current canon story of the king
@normal berry
Yes, but from everything we do see, the king isn't a good person

lethal stump
#

we know almost nothing from the canon
until the devs give us more, there’s nothing else we can go off than the concepts n bit of canon

short owl
#

Blame brick if it gets confusing

hushed steeple
#

And I have a hard time seeing him as trying to save anything since the other spirits mourn something

lethal stump
#

wh
you started the mind control theory >:0

hushed steeple
#

While we see statues of him as if he sought others to worship him

short owl
#

YOU MADE MEGABIRD NAMED MEGAN

lethal stump
#

THAT WAS AUTOCORRECT

hushed steeple
#

Valid point

#

I'M ON NULLS SIDE IN THIS

normal berry
#

And I have a hard time seeing him as trying to save anything since the other spirits mourn something
@hushed steeple What i meant was, he was destroyed and reincarnated like a "you broke it now you fix it" sort of way

hushed steeple

I believe he was caught too up in himself, and didn't realize the consequences of using the very heavens as a power source

hushed steeple
#

I HAVE FINALLT BEEN FREED FROM YOUR MIND CONTROL!!

orchid crypt
#

yeah, i'm wondering if the king being too caught up with an idea rather than being downright evil might be closer to the truth in some ways

mellow sable
#

yeah the king is very much a Lucifer type of character

#

he tried to become god

hidden dagger
#

What if Skybot was the king all along? pEyes

lethal stump
#

that’s what we were referencing with the mind control, Raf

orchid crypt
#

i'm toying with the idea of an obsession with power diamonds being born of a way to store and harness light, due to the darkness somehow making them fall from the sky/stars

mellow sable
#

and in his attempt to gain even more power, he took the child of light and trapped it in a diamond

hushed steeple
#

I'll share my theory again

#

Maybe we can make a better one from that

mellow sable
#

I still don't get that line

hushed steeple
#

This is my latest theory.

What if the Elders are the constellations themselves, their jod is to watch over humanity and help those who need to be reborn.
But like always, humans become corrupted, bringing darkness to the lands of light. Concerned they decide to fall to the human world and create their own lands, in an effor to help the humans harness the light again and banish the darkness from the lands. They help them build technology and so on, while at the same time creating the things they themselves could not. Like the Eye of Eden, a source of infinite power.
Only this will backfire on them, humans will become more and more greedy, seeking more and more, corrupted they will start a war against the elders, taking their light as they go through each zone, only when they reach the eye the corruption from them themselves and the light from the elders will cause the eye to explode causing the storm.
Knowing what will happen, the apocalypse, the elders took the few humans who still followed them and used what was left of their powers to push pieces of their land into the sky, away from the corruption that will take over the rest.
Sky children were then born of the light, with their only mission being to try to save the eye and with it stop the storm, only non of them succeeded and so, their new mission became to save the spirits of the followers, bring hope back to the elders and return them back home and save the kids who were lost in a futile effort to save what cannot be saved.

mellow sable
#

"but darkness came, and the stars fell"

lethal stump
#

darkness doesn’t have to be physical

#

it could be ideas...ideas against megan

hushed steeple
#

That's my theory and how I see the stars fell line

normal berry
#

Perhaps the darkness was the elders own foolishness?

mellow sable
#

"if only they had listened.."

hushed steeple
#

Meaning the humans they tried to help

#

In my opinion

normal berry
#

that line has me leaning towards the idea that the elders were egotistical and dumb, but not essentially evil

mellow sable
#

the narrator is likely not megan OR the king

#

I believe it's the vault elder

lethal stump
#

oOoo

mellow sable
#

he's recounting the tale of his people to the skykids

#

wait

what ?

mellow sable
#

what if the intro is actually happening during the vault cutscene?

#

chronologically I mean

lethal stump
#

wdym ?

mellow sable
#

the story is being recounted by the vault elder to the skykids

hushed steeple
#

That doesn't make sense, since we would never make that connection ourselves

#

Unless you're in this insane conspiracy server

mellow sable
#

which is why we then see all of the elders

lethal stump
#

none of this would make sense without the conspiracy chat

mellow sable
#

ikr

normal berry
#

this IS a conspiracy chat

hushed steeple
#

Yes it is

mellow sable
#

wear your tin foil hats people to keep away the megan mind control

lethal stump
#

im jealous of journey lore detectives who get plenty of descriptive murals 😠

hushed steeple
#

That's why I wear a tinfoil hat

normal berry
#

hhhhhhhhh

hushed steeple
#

A BLUE one!!

normal berry
#

tin foil is silver

mellow sable
#

yeah journey had entire MURALS

#

for sky we have

hushed steeple
#

That's the point, the new anniversary hat

lethal stump
#

hold on i have a meme idea

mellow sable
#

7 cutscenes and a couple murals here and there

#

that's all the lore we get

hushed steeple
#

It isn't enough

mellow sable
#

exactly

hushed steeple
#

But let us HOPE that we'll get more in the future

mellow sable
#

there's waaaay too many blanks

#

like

#

who is the CoL???

hushed steeple
#

More than many, we don't know anything

mellow sable
#

why is it connected to the elders????

hushed steeple
#

And on top of that the world itself has been changed several times

normal berry
#

They intended that most of the lore is up to interpretation, so we might not get much more

hushed steeple
#

Yeah, but even then there just isn't enough to go off of

mellow sable
#

we do know the king DOES exist

hushed steeple
#

The murals are sometimes extremely hard to understand

mellow sable
#

and he DOES have plot relevancy

normal berry
#

did

mellow sable
#

wait

#

what if the king and the CoL merged?

hushed steeple
#

You've fallen into Bricks trap

#

Quick, run!!

#

King propaganda is coming!!

mellow sable
lethal stump
#

don’t scare them away pCry

#

also i posted the meme in #sky-memes if y’all wanna see it—

normal berry
#

thats big talk for someone who is a fragment of the king's soul SkyLOL

lethal stump
#

we all are u hypocrite /joke

mellow sable
#

megan secretly wants to yeet the king out of us

hushed steeple
#

I love the meme

#

Top tier

mellow sable
#

just like

#

"this dude empty, YEET"

lethal stump
#

thank you

hushed steeple
#

You've fallen into Bricks trap!! He has you ensnared in his clutches

#

You've taken yet another soul King!!

lethal stump
#

;/

normal berry
#

king is dead lol

#

long dead

lethal stump
#

im not the king

hushed steeple
#

He is not!!

short owl
#

What if Alef understood that connection makes light stronger, and became corrupted himself due to him forcing himself to reject all connections, and then when he saw the Eden Diamond he managed to corrupt it by trying to expell the light into the diamond?

normal berry
#

he got yeeted into a million pieces when the diamond blew up

sly kestrel
#

im not the king
@lethal stump yes you are

normal berry
#

there is no king in ba sing se

short owl
#

He just wanted to relieve himself so he could make friends like all the others

hushed steeple
#

We don't know that, that's the thing

#

We don't know what happened to the king

lethal stump
#

why do you guys think i’m the king pFIRE

cold steppe
#

it's in your name

normal berry
#

"the eden elder isnt around to be saved anymore"

mellow sable
#

the king ate megan's pop tarts and now it wants revenge

hushed steeple
#

You spread king propaganda

#

And it's in your name

cold steppe
#

the only thing we kind of know for sure is that the king exists, as does the eden elder

lethal stump
#

are they separate ?

#

or the same ?

cold steppe
#

who knows

normal berry
#

i think we can assume they are the same

sly kestrel
#

“The power diamonds are related to the downfall of the civilization” I do kno that, and most likely the king was involved

cold steppe
#

it would make sense for them to be the same

hushed steeple
#

That's why I think the king sought more power

#

Stole it from the elders and then caused the storm

sly kestrel
#

Not jus him tho, I think the elders helped him

mellow sable
#

the king sought a way to return to the sky

cold steppe
#

it might also make sense for king = eden elder = child of light

#

I definitely think the elders helped

#

why else would they fall?

sly kestrel
#

Like how forest elder is the one who started the diamond production

hushed steeple
#

I think the elders thought him how to harness light

#

And then he used it for the wrong reasons

mellow sable
#

oh yeah def

normal berry
#

so if king = eden elder, and eden elder = not around to be saved anymore, then its not too outlandish for me to guess he's long gone

lethal stump
#

yeah
i don’t think the king is smart enough to do it himself

mellow sable
#

prairie and isle grandpa create butterflies and birds from light respectively

cold steppe
#

"they didn't listen" could mean that they tried to harness some higher light, failed, were thrown out, then tried again

lethal stump
#

hes in us—
hes the dark part of us, and we save the light part

sly kestrel
#

Now that’s new

mellow sable
#

the elders knew eachother in orbit too

#

also something peculiar

hushed steeple
#

"they didn't listen" could mean that they tried to harness some higher light, failed, were thrown out, then tried again
@cold steppe
I think it refers to the humans, "darkness came and then they fell", my interpretation is that the elders fell to save the humans from the darkness

lethal stump
#

imo they might represent the 7 deadly sins, but that’s a bit of a crack theory

mellow sable
#

the elders can't return to orbit unless their constellation is fully restored, their ties born anew

cold steppe
#

it would be so helpful to figure out what exactly TGC meant by "fall"

sly kestrel
#

No, their constellation doesn’t matter to them being saved
We save em no matter what, we jus have to reconnect them with the light

cold steppe
#

it could mean go from a high place to a low place

#

it could also be a reference to the Garden of Eden story

normal berry
#

imo they might represent the 7 deadly sins, but that’s a bit of a crack theory
@lethal stump tbh 7 is a very common number in religion so its not too surprising that they made 7 realms

mellow sable
#

no see

hushed steeple
#

I see it like angles

cold steppe
#

the fall of man (sin)

sly kestrel
#

no see
@mellow sable no se?

hushed steeple
#

Angels**

mellow sable
#

the elders don't return to orbit after their cutscene

lethal stump
#

@lethal stump tbh 7 is a very common number in religion so its not too surprising that they made 7 realms
@normal berry yeah, but it gives me big SDS vibes

mellow sable
#

7 is also usually seen as a holy number

hushed steeple
#

Angels are meant to love all humans, but they shouldn't interfere with them, if they begin to form attachments to humans, that is when they fall

mellow sable
#

777 is the number of god or whatever

cold steppe
#

it kind of depends on the religion though

#

for the angel info

hushed steeple
#

Yeah

#

I'm going with that one

cold steppe
#

cries in lack of lore

hushed steeple
#

I know how you feel

mellow sable
#

I'm def getting Christian vibes from the sky story

sly kestrel
#

Another thing
They didn’t hesitate to build their kingdoms when they fell, they immediately decided to build their civilization with the ppl

cold steppe
#

a lot would make more sense if we knew more about "fall"

hushed steeple
#

But I will die on my hill and theory

sly kestrel
#

I’m hesitant to call em humans

hushed steeple
#

Well, they aren't humans

normal berry
#

ancestors?

hushed steeple
#

Yeah

#

Let's call em that

cold steppe
#

Eden gives me vibes of the Judeo-Christian fall of man, which was sin
in that case, one third of the angels fell because they followed Lucifer who was rebelling against God

sly kestrel
#

Oh yeah I keep forgetting that word

mellow sable
#

OH WAIT. IDEA. THE KING AND THE GARDEN OF EDEN

#

THE EDEN DIAMOND IS THE APPLE

sly kestrel
#

Well, they based it off of multiple religions so...

lethal stump
#

the king is lucifer

normal berry
#

lol he bit into a diamond

lethal stump
#

sky is hell pFIRE

cold steppe
#

Jay identified the problem

mellow sable
#

WHAT IF EDEN WAS PART OF ORBIT BUT THEN MEGAN YEETED IT DOWN INTO THE SKY KINGDOM

cold steppe
#

since Sky was inspired by so many different religions, it's almost impossible to figure out which one was the inspiration for specific parts

#

or if they were all smashed together for Sky

lethal stump
#

eden shows up in all abrahamic religions i think

cold steppe
#

either option is cool, but so confusing

sly kestrel
#

Well there’s a theory that this is like the story of eden and the king is eating the forbidden fruit

normal berry
#

its kinda its own religion at this point

sly kestrel
#

since Sky was inspired by so many different religions, it's almost impossible to figure out which one was the inspiration for specific parts
@cold steppe ye

mellow sable
#

seriously though, we see in the intro that Eden is in the clouds

lethal stump
#

maybe the light is the forbidden fruit pEyes

mellow sable
#

all the other realms are below the clouds

sly kestrel
#

..no

cold steppe
#

fun fact: the forbidden fruit was from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil

sly kestrel
#

Eden was something built when they fell

cold steppe
#

in the Biblical story

mellow sable
#

by clouds I mean the clouds that later became the storm

normal berry
#

all of the realms are in the clouds i believe

lethal stump
#

just different levels

cold steppe
#

it's interesting that memories (like from Sanctuary) are contained in balls of light

mellow sable
#

isle is on an unnamed seashore

hushed steeple
#

Yeah, Eden was built when the elders fell

#

And darkness had already come to the land

normal berry
#

"Together, the fallen stars made a new home in the clouds." this prolly refers to the sky kingdom as a whole

hushed steeple
#

Which would mean that the ancestors became corrupt by something

cold steppe
#

sounds like the elders became corrupt

mellow sable
#

we know that the elders originally RETURNED the fallen light to megan

hushed steeple
lethal stump
#

they did, raf ?

cold steppe
#

if we're going by "then darkness came, and the stars fell"
stars are the elders

hushed steeple
#

But the elders fell after darkness came

#

Which wouldn't make sense for them to be corrupted

sly kestrel
#

We gonna keep calling the megabird megan now huh 😂

cold steppe
#

lol

hushed steeple
#

Or remorseful when we meet them

mellow sable
#

but later on they used it to create life, and afterwards war machines and power sources

cold steppe
#

it would make sense that they were corrupted by the darkness which is why they fell

#

a la the Garden of Eden/fall of Lucifer

lethal stump
#

i thought that they either stole the light or were given it

hushed steeple
#

Well I've a question about those stars in isle mural

#

But it still doesn't make sense, since it doesn't say where the darkness came

cold steppe
#

idk though. my interpretation is 90% Judeo-Christian

mellow sable
#

I really do believe the krill are experiments gone wrong

#

they sound too mechanical

lethal stump
#

how would you get darkness in heaven

hushed steeple
#

Exactly

sly kestrel
#

They could’ve been corrupted during the time when they were thriving in the clouds with their civilization, plus, the narrator did say “if only they had listened” Smoll Ant#2676

#

Oops my bad for pinging

hushed steeple
#

Oh it's fine

short owl
#

@lethal stump it may have always been there. Ignoring problems in your society is not unique to megans.

hushed steeple
#

But, it says they fell

#

After the darkness came

mellow sable
#

look, if something has a giant spotlight and makes clanking and whirring sounds I'll assume it's not biological

hushed steeple
#

So it doesn't make sense that they fell from corruption

lethal stump
#

at most, they were having anti-megan thoughts and one of them said something and were cast out and fell

cold steppe
#

I think the debate is about the exact definition of (1) darkness and (2) fell

normal berry
#

its confirmed that all creatures in sky are natural

cold steppe
#

there's so many possible interpretations

lethal stump
#

yes it is

hushed steeple
#

There are

#

But, it doesn't make sense that the corruption started in Megan

lethal stump
#

i feel like an historian debating over the translations in a tome pFIRE

hushed steeple
#

||NYOOOOOMM||

cold steppe
#

oh, I wasn't saying that it started in Megan

#

I was thinking that it started with the elders

#

and then megan threw them out

sly kestrel
#

Ok imma whip out the intro so we won’t get confused

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
#

why do crabs like, exist either

cold steppe
#

bless Jay

hushed steeple
#

Yes, but the elders were in Megan

mellow sable
#

hmm

cold steppe
#

were they?

lethal stump
#

in megan ?

mellow sable
#

"a long time has passed"

sly kestrel
#

It says that they fell after darkness came

hushed steeple
#

Well, where else would they be?

lethal stump
#

in orbit ?

normal berry
#

megabird is the embodiment of light, no? so it wouldn't make sense to corrupt it

hushed steeple
#

Darkness came in orbit?

mellow sable
#

the elders weren't in megan

#

they were in orbit

hushed steeple
#

Unless we flow some WoW based lore of them living in different universes

#

Orbit is where Megan is

lethal stump
#

yes but not in her

hushed steeple
#

And we don't know if Megan isn't orbit of not

mellow sable
#

but orbit≠megan

cold steppe
#

I could be totally off, but my interpretation was that the elders were connected to Megan but physically in orbit

#

if that makes sense

hushed steeple
#

At least I don't

normal berry
#

nah i think that makes sense

lethal stump
#

that makes sense wren

cold steppe
#

also I had a theory a few months ago of Megan being the portal from orbit

#

as in you go into Megan when you go into the portal

lethal stump
#

and then they severed the ties when they fell, on purpose or on accident

cold steppe
#

but orbit itself isn't Megan

#

it's a somewhat flimsy theory based on the constellation of what could be Megan, but let me link it real quick

sly kestrel
#

But I am a bit suspicious how it jus came outta nowhere, causing them to fall and it they suspiciously thrived in the clouds right after they fell, and lived with the ancestors
One of my theories is that the intro isn’t telling us the full details, it goes around the fact that maybe darkness came because the elders fell. And maybe they didn’t fall, maybe they intentionally left their home to thrive with their kingdom on the clouds

hushed steeple
#

We also have to bring them home
Does this means getting all the ultimate rewards to take them in orbit?

cold steppe
#

yeah, it could be a literal fall, as in going from a higher place to a lower place

mellow sable
#

the narrator is definitely unreliable

lethal stump
#

all narrators are

cold steppe
lethal stump
sly kestrel
#

Eggsactly
And a lot of games “first intros” are false history and we later get the real one after a lot of progression in the game

lethal stump
#

we need more LORE

hushed steeple
#

But if they are connected to Megan and live in orbit, then they couldn't be corrupted surrounded by so much light

mellow sable
#

what if we're being misled?

lethal stump
#

more murals pls pCry

hushed steeple
#

And if we look at it, Megan doesn't seem to be sentient

sly kestrel
#

Oh big theory

#

Woah

hushed steeple
#

It is just pure light

lethal stump
#

@hushed steeple you cannot have light without darkness

mellow sable
#

misled to believe that the elders fell because of darkness, and not the other way around

cold steppe
#

could definitely be that

hushed steeple
#

@hushed steeple you cannot have light without darkness
@lethal stump
I don't disagree with that at all

lethal stump
#

even in orbit there must be darkness

#

even in eden there must be light

mellow sable
#

we know too little about the narrator to know if they're reliable or not

lethal stump
#

doubt everything

#

trust no one

sly kestrel
#

misled to believe that the elders fell because of darkness, and not the other way around
@mellow sable u got the other way around saying that, the intro states they fell bc darkness came, the theory is that the elders leaving is what caused the darkness to come

mellow sable
#

yeah exactly

cold steppe
#

in the Judeo-Christian theology (though probably admittedly more Christian theology than Judaism), Lucifer/Satan was the highest angel of all, yet he wanted to be God, and so he led a rebellion against God with 1/3 of the angels and was thrown out for that reason
the darkness is more symbolic than anything, but this might be an example of "darkness" existing even in the presence of "light"

mellow sable
#

elders fell and THEY caused the darkness to spread

sly kestrel
#

After all, if their light is infinite when they are together with the dude in the middle, wouldn’t it make sense if they left darkness would come

lethal stump
#

and in this, The King is lucifer

hushed steeple
#

If the elders fell, that would mean something caused them to fall

cold steppe
#

or their actions caused them to fall

#

whether it's being physically thrown out or something else

mellow sable
#

or maybe they left of their own accord

lethal stump
#

and if the king and the elders are 1/3 of the angels
are there 14 other elders ?

sly kestrel
#

I still think they didn’t fall

hushed steeple
#

They could have also willingly fell

#

Choosing to help the ancestors

#

They kicked out

mellow sable
#

ancestors

sly kestrel
#

That’s my theory

hushed steeple
#

🦵

sly kestrel
#

And not help, but to maybe thrive and have them worship them

hushed steeple
#

Not realising they were causing corruption to spread

mellow sable
#

I think the elders were power hungry

#

valley elders wanted fame

sly kestrel
#

“Hey, this place is getting boring, wanna go to the ground and have humans worship us 😎”

mellow sable
#

forest elder wanted power

lethal stump
#

SDS time

hushed steeple
#

But why so remorseful afterwards

#

When we meet them, most of them are sad

cold steppe
#

they realized it didn't actually fulfill them

hushed steeple
#

In poor state

mellow sable
#

“Hey, this place is getting boring, wanna go to the ground and have humans worship us 😎”
@sly kestrel yes exactly

hushed steeple
#

And look miserable

lethal stump
#

because they’ve been isolated for an unknown period of time ?

#

which, judging by the decay we see, could be thousands of years

mellow sable
#

vault elder wanted to share his knowledge with others

hushed steeple
#

I don't think that's it

mellow sable
#

wasteland, prairie and isle I'm not really sure about

cold steppe
#

also think about it with children, for example
you tell them they can't have sugar. they're angry, then they plot to steal the giant bucket of candy they have
you step outside for a second and then they steal all of it and eat it
they're very remorseful afterward

normal berry
#

But why so remorseful afterwards
@hushed steeple because they weren't really evil just foolish, they didn't realize the consequence of their actions till it was too late

cold steppe
#

terrible example though

hushed steeple
#

Especially if we go with the theory they weren't around each other when they were in orbit

sly kestrel
#

In orbit they were

lethal stump
#

they were, the devs confirmed it

mellow sable
#

yeah

cold steppe
#

yeah, devs confirmed that they were in orbit together and knew each other before the "Fall"

mellow sable
#

they really just told megan "we're gonna get some milk" and left

hushed steeple
#

But knew each other and interacted with each other are two different things

#

What if they fell because they were lonely

sly kestrel
#

If ur telling a dark history to a tiny kid that knows nothing, would u tell the kid the full details?

mellow sable
#

and also, it seems the elders are very interconnected

lethal stump
#

megan: can y’all get some groceries
elders: aight * leave *

  • a hundred years later -
    megan:
    megan: i don’t think they’re getting groceries
normal berry
#

nah, they're basically power hungry infants

hushed steeple
#

I don't think that's what they are

cold steppe
#

"The 6 falling stars in the intro were the elders, they also knew each other from before they fell
The elders were always elders and know each other from before they fell, and sky kids will not grow up to be elders"
from the canon doc

mellow sable
#

isle and praire gave light to forest, she gave the diamonds to everyone

cold steppe
#

it sounds like there was a thriving trade between the realms

#

or at least a production line

lethal stump
#

there would have to be

#

it’s a kingdom afterall, why wouldn’t the realms trade ?

cold steppe
#

also, think about the difference between us and the size of the elders

mellow sable
#

there's also a diamond press in wasteland

hushed steeple
#

If they were power hungry why would they help the ancestors

mellow sable
#

oh

cold steppe
#

what takes us a long time and looks like such a large distance could be nothing to the elders

hushed steeple
#

Why would they help them thrive?

mellow sable
#

oh it just dawned on me

#

the krill destroyed the diamond press

hushed steeple
#

It doesn't make sense that they help the ancestors

sly kestrel
#

Me wondering whether I should rely on concepts to create a story
pThink

cold steppe
#

at the very least, it will be interesting, Jay

lethal stump
#

oop

short owl
#

@sly kestrel not only yes but tag me when you do

lethal stump
#

They don’t seem to help them, Smoll. Just use them as expendable workers

mellow sable
#

the krill either came out of the diamond press or somehow arrived there

cold steppe
#

I wonder if TGC also considered Greek mythology

hushed steeple
#

But we don't know that

#

Well guys kinda off topic
But what made the time of each realm fixed? (asking again as I didn't get a clear answer before)

#

That's the thing

#

We don't know if they used the ancestors or not

cold steppe
#

it's a bit of a stretch, but think about the story of Zeus and Prometheus, for example

hushed steeple
#

All the ancestors look happy

sinful anvil
#

the funny things you go realm to realm without portals

cold steppe
#

Prometheus wanted to help the humans but the gods didn't, and Prometheus was punished severely for helping the humans

short owl
#

I'm not sure they were expendable

mellow sable
#

oop, gotta sneep

for eg we know how we can go from valley stadium through the clouds to wasteland social space

Ok so valley is so high in civilization and celebration bc it was when the kingdom fully thrived and celebrated the prince’s victories, it’s also where he was crowned king. There were so many fun activates bc everyone was in celebration and in Tribute to the king. Both the rich and poor was welcome to valley

hushed steeple
#

Night night

normal berry
#

Why would they help them thrive?
@hushed steeple because a. it benefits themselves to have a thriving society or b. they just liked the praise and power

cold steppe
#

I think it's interesting that the favorite friends constellation is now called The Light

sinful anvil
#

what are some theories about krills’ origins?

mellow sable
#

final theory before i sleep, oreo is the king

cold steppe
#

wouldn't that be an amazing plot twist

short owl
#

If you left a highly populated society for a significantly quieter one, you would likely wind up making new connections once you decompress from overpeoplization

hushed steeple
#

@hushed steeple because a. it benefits themselves to have a thriving society or b. they just liked the praise and power
@normal berry
That still doesn't make sense, anything that is being used at some point will turn against that person of power, we see it from animals to humans

#

Doggo kingdom

normal berry
#

i think its interesting how the favorite friends constellation is in the shape of a crown

mellow sable
#

it's also called "The Light"

sly kestrel
#

And how it represents eden

normal berry
#

@normal berry
That still doesn't make sense, anything that is being used at some point will turn against that person of power, we see it from animals to humans
@hushed steeple cant turn against a society if you don't know theres any problems

short owl
#

Spirits were famiy, friends, comrads, neighbors

cold steppe
#

could it be possible that the elders fell and then the ancestors were the ones to help them rebuild their lives?

hushed steeple
#

@hushed steeple cant turn against a society if you don't know theres any problems
@normal berry
You can, and many have

#

That also says we're a part of eden elder?

cold steppe
#

though it depends on the definition of "fall" again

hushed steeple
#

That's the thing you can ALWAYS turn away from something

sly kestrel
#

Anything is possible based on our extremely vague lore wren

cold steppe
#

oh fair

hushed steeple
#

And nothing suggest the elders were using the ancestors

sly kestrel
#

And....uh they kinda wanted us to make up our own story

lethal stump
#

That also says we're a part of eden elder?
@hushed steeple a theory, a popular one

glad forge
#

Plot twist: home is actually some part of Eden

cold steppe
#

I think Raf dropped the best one of all though, that oreo is the king

short owl
#

The ancestors may have taught the elders as much as the elders taught the spirits

sinful anvil
#

im thinking the reason why the realms are fixed in time cuz those are the times in which light children are trapped

#

so we are just accessing time frames to find the children

lethal stump
#

we’re in our own spacetime loop like the elders are, bc we are a harbinger of the prince/king’s soul

normal berry
#

@normal berry
You can, and many have
@hushed steeple and that would require you to realizes there is problems with it said society, the ancestors could've been kept in the dark the whole time. and I'm not saying the elders were evil dictators, what I'm saying is their actions could very well be in their own selfish interests

sinful anvil
#

i thought these are jus cute kids!

sly kestrel
#

Ye, imprints of the child of light are the scattered wings we get
And there’s a theory the child of light is the king, and we look exactly like the winged light kids, and we give them to petrified bodies in eden that looks like Skykids
So yeah, it is a popular theory

hushed steeple
#

im thinking the reason why the realms are fixed in time cuz those are the times in which light children are trapped
@sinful anvil it wasn't always fixed

cold steppe
#

Sky theorizing goes deep

short owl
#

Spirits: "here is how we get food"
Elders: "here's how to use light to make things float"

the elders represent technology and innovation
the spirits are likely the more rural part of everything

Interesting theories pPopcorn

hushed steeple
#

@hushed steeple and that would require you to realizes there is problems with it said society, the ancestors could've been kept in the dark the whole time. and I'm not saying the elders were evil dictators, what I'm saying is their actions could very well be in their own selfish interests
@normal berry
Even then there are those who will question, even in a happy society you will question why everyone is happy and seek to see why

#

We happy Few is a great example of that

#

EXACTLY THAT

cold steppe
#

that's assuming the ancestors thought exactly the same way we did

hushed steeple
#

They were intelligent, they had to be to build the things they did

cold steppe
#

you're working on the assumption that ancestors were human-like in their thinking

lethal stump
#

What could they be then ?

sinful anvil
#

what made the spirits, spirits? why is it only their memories we can retrieve? the valley is likely to be populated, is it that humans leave no spirits but some higher being does?

cold steppe
#

I guess human-like is the wrong word to describe what I'm trying to say

hushed steeple
#

Look at the window

sly kestrel
#

Praire elder: “awww look at these cute butterflies”
Forest elder: “awww look at this cute technology potential”
Praire elder: “What?”
Forest elder: “What?”

hushed steeple
#

But they are very much human like

cold steppe
#

right now, we're interpreting the game as though the characters have the exact same mindset as we do

lethal stump
#

@sly kestrel can i use that for a comic ?

sly kestrel
#

No

lethal stump
#

oh pCry

hushed steeple
#

So any theory why the time froze?

glad forge
#

Hmmmm

sly kestrel
#

@sinful anvil spirits were alive once, their body is dead but their spirits live on and this is why we interact with them. Though it is a mystery why only some of the ancestors are able to have their memories relieved

lethal stump
#

spacetime loop like with the elders, bc we’re the king being punished, @hushed steeple

short owl
#

@hushed steeple I blame Megan

hushed steeple
#

From what we can see, they didn't lack intellect, wich would mean that at the very least they knew they were being used and some of them would question it

cold steppe
#

it could be possible that the ancestors weren't quite brainwashed, per se, but didn't really know any differently that what the ywere living

hushed steeple
#

Even a dog will bite its owner after being mistreated

cold steppe
#

though it could also tie into the two shields theory

lethal stump
#

@hushed steeple that’s the civil war probably

hushed steeple
#

But again, even among the brainwashed there are those who will question things

#

We see it all the time

delicate coral
#

Oh my goodness are we still on the megabird bad theory

hushed steeple
#

I'll mention We Happy Few again

cold steppe
#

I have to say, in some ways, I think you're overestimating the desire for rebellion. Yes, there will be people who question things, but we don't know if they were being suppressed or not

hushed steeple
#

The game shows exactly how even if brainwashed you will question

cold steppe
#

you can question but you may be one of the very few to question, which could make your rebellion inefficient and fail

lethal stump
#

I have to say, in some ways, I think you're overestimating the desire for rebellion. Yes, there will be people who question things, but we don't know if they were being suppressed or not
@cold steppe what about the civil war and k i n g p r o p a g a n d a

hushed steeple
#

If one is suppressed, others will not show it

short owl
#

Forest and prarie seem verry connected to their people. I doubt those ancestors were unhappy with their local elders

hushed steeple
#

We don't know if they were the cause of the rebellion

#

I'll say it again

#

We don't know if the elders used or brainwashed the ancestors

short owl
#

Forest worked alongside their people. And Prarie created goods for economic stability.

hushed steeple
#

All we know if that there was a reason for a war and a reason for the storm to happen

@hushed steeple what you said is people can rebel without realizing there are problems in a society, if everyone thinks a society is perfect then there is no reason no rebel, Autodale: the animated series is an excellent example of this. But anyways that is besides the point because it deviates from my original statement, which was that the Elders could of made a FANTASTIC society and took great care of their subjects, but were still selfish brats and had their own interests other than "they just wanted to help"

sly kestrel
#

I don’t know about used, but I do believe they were worshipped and high respected by the ancestors

short owl
#

Valley too seemed connected, even if divided.

#

Even if people were unhappy with one, I would imagine they had at least a reasonable view of elders

cold steppe
#

and we're also assuming that there was a civil war. there definitely seems to be signs of one, but we might not know for sure

sly kestrel
#

But when they saw they were getting a lil too crazy with the power diamonds, I think that’s when their common sense kicked in and decided to go on the civil war
So no, I don’t believe they were controlled by the elders, maybe at first but I do believe they had free wills on their own and chose to use it when they realized they were bad

cold steppe
#

hot take: battlefield was a training ground for warriors against the krill

hushed steeple

@normal berry
And again, I'll say it, even in a perfect society, there will be those who question it. Again We Happy Few, the illusion of a perfect society but under it there is something wrong and all it takes is one person to question it

#

I think no... Fighting against krills is no use?

#

We are going on the illusion that they were selfish

sly kestrel
#

Ye

hushed steeple
#

But we have nothing to confirm this

normal berry

@hushed steeple again, that wasn't my point in the first place

cold steppe
#

I mean, that's the purpose of this channel. To theorize. We don't really know either way

lethal stump
#

i think, personally, they made the krills somehow as guards for the king and were eventually used against the subjects in the civil war

sly kestrel
#

And yea, they rlly have no defense against krill what so ever

lethal stump
#

against Tsadi and the subjects, to be specific, since i think he led the rebellion

sly kestrel
#

I’ll prolly reword that
Physical attacks can’t do anything to krill

lethal stump
#

you just go through them SkyLOL

cold steppe
#

it seems like they tried to do something since there's catapults and the wasteland elder has a spear

hushed steeple

cold steppe
#

amazing theory, 10/10

lethal stump
hushed steeple
#

They did fight something

sly kestrel
#

Yea

hushed steeple
#

And my guess is corruption

sly kestrel
#

That’s why the civil war theory came to rise

short owl
#

One thing we don't know though is when

hushed steeple
#

Because something wanted to corrupt or take the eye of Eden

sly kestrel
#

It all started a long time ago when we realized the spears were piercing the shields

hushed steeple
#

Only they caused the storm

short owl
#

The war could have happened only after the clouds came

lethal stump
#

One thing we don't know though is when
@short owl probably near the end of their civilization. war tends to make things more unstable

hushed steeple
#

The elders lost their light

#

Which would mean someone stole their light

lethal stump
#

the king pEyes

hushed steeple
#

We can see the spears piercing both Shields tho👀

cold steppe
#

I do have a question about the size of the shields and spears though. Are the ancestors actually large enough to have held them?

#

or was it elder vs. elder?

lethal stump
#

both sides used spears and swords probably

hushed steeple
#

Some of the shields are huge

lethal stump
#

there’s not enough elders for that, you think ?

hushed steeple
#

Much bigger than the ancestors

woven tundra
#

That's a lotta elders if each held 1 shield and 1 spear then

cold steppe
#

exactly, smoll

sly kestrel
#

We can see the spears piercing both Shields tho👀
@hushed steeple exactly....

cold steppe
#

did they... set them up like a barricade then?

hushed steeple
#

Which would mean that either the spirits became smaller over time

mortal viper
#

@lethal stump , king drawing is ready

hushed steeple
#

Or the elders fought against each other

cold steppe
#

question: does the huge spell make you as tall as a spirit?

lethal stump
#

SHOW

hushed steeple
#

But that would mean there were more elders

cold steppe
#

because I may want to run some tests

hushed steeple
#

@cold steppe if you're already tall it can

#

Well in vault mural some people running while holding those Shields and spear

sly kestrel
#

There’s only six and I’m glad I rlly wasn’t the only one who noticed the huge weapons

lethal stump
#

also wren it makes us as tall enchantment dude i think

sly kestrel
#

They are only wieldable for ppl the size of the wasteland elder

hushed steeple
#

But it doesn't make sense

normal berry
#

question: does the huge spell make you as tall as a spirit?
@cold steppe huge spell makes you close to the size of an adult spirit and taller than a younger spirit

hushed steeple
#

Since we see quite a few shields and weapons

sly kestrel
#

I know and that’s why I got so confused about the war

lethal stump
#

were there other elders ?? spirits on steroids ?!

hushed steeple
#

There are only 6 elders

short owl
#

It may also have been a situation where not everyone was of their own mind. If people were trapped in clouds, hungry. Tired, and unable to even see...

cold steppe
#

can someone list the exact areas of the shields? I'm going to try sizing huge in Wasteland and/or Wasteland to measure

hushed steeple
#

So who were these people

sly kestrel
#

Either they used size manipulation, an entire new race, or some other reason I can’t think of

cold steppe
#

I have 0 huge spells

short owl
#

Worse - clouds recharge light. If Megan used the clouds to extend their power....

hushed steeple
#

were there other elders ?? spirits on steroids ?!
@lethal stump
My only guess is that the ancestors were bigger and then sized down

lethal stump
hushed steeple
#

Bigger than confettistickerShock

cold steppe
#

ok, so I'll have to go buy some huge spell, then I'll try to measure

short owl
#

Also elders regularly use tools too big for them. I think they just have a light telekinisis that the vault spirits learned to hone

cold steppe
#

true, but do the spirits have it as well?

hushed steeple
#

Maybe they used the same spells

short owl
#

Sorry yes, spirits use tools too big for them

hushed steeple
#

That would make more sense

lethal stump
#

yes, since we see spirits in vault using magic

normal berry
#

ok, so I'll have to go buy some huge spell, then I'll try to measure
@cold steppe keep in mind we are tiny compared to spirits, so they could've been huge!

cold steppe
#

hmm yes

sly kestrel
#

I do know some spirits have some power
But an entire battle of huge ppl, eh I got no idea what it could be

mortal viper
#

@lethal stump I was planing to send here because I don’t know if I can send it there considering it is about the king...

hushed steeple
#

I used just one huge spell till now and it's hard to control for me so never used again

#

Why do we have these spells given to use by the spirits if they themselves didn't use them

lethal stump
#

chibi is 2’3

hushed steeple
#

I think they used?

lethal stump
#

@lethal stump I was planing to send here because I don’t know if I can send it there considering it is about the king...
@mortal viper spoiler the pic if you’re worried

#

magic steroids pFIRE

hushed steeple
#

It says blessing tho

normal berry
#

the oversized weapons could imply they used spells tho

sly kestrel
#

I saw it as a game mechanic at first for us players to use and have fun with
But who knows, the spirits prolly used them

normal berry
#

i mean the ark spirits to sell them doe

sly kestrel
#

And I’m talking about the resize potions btw

#

Oh yeah the ark

#

Hm....maybe they did use them

#

And it’s not jus a game currency for us

hushed steeple
#

They could have definitely used them, especially since the ark spirits traded everywhere and seemed to specialise in spells

normal berry
#

ask the enchantment man GiftEnchantment

cold steppe
#

does anyone want/need pictures of the ark murals since I'm heading there now?

hushed steeple
#

I know them by heart

#

The ark ones

#

The one in the crab cave confuse me

#

Kk
It's 3 am
I need to sleep now
Gn all.. happy theorizing

I only got one lil lore detail from the crab murals and it’s not much at all

goodnight

lethal stump

gn uwu

hushed steeple

Ugh, I don't even know where the mural starts and ends

#

And the crabs hate me and always glitch through my call and hit me

lethal stump

i’d imagine on the far left and goes around to the right to the back

normal berry

i saw that jay

No idea how it goes

we all saw that jay pEyes

happy now? pSquint

When u wanna knock down crabs, u have to fly while calling so they won’t hit you

cold steppe

ah, it's not huge spell day

My game is very buggy

There is a chance I'll lose control in the air

cold steppe

another time then

sly kestrel
#

I can help you if u want

hushed steeple

With the crabs?

You'd be a life saver

But my main problem is my #1 enemy

I’m a crab expert

cold steppe
#

did everyone notice that all the mantas in the crab cave are pointing toward the exits?

#

more or less?

hushed steeple
#

I did not notice that

sly kestrel
#

What confuses me is the amount of planets shown at the credits and if there were that many and only 6 elders than why jus one tiny earth

hushed steeple
#

But that's a cool thing

#

Especially since in the beginning the mantas exist through them

#

I think

sly kestrel
#

And, another thing
I wanna visit these planets

#

Ohhh u reminded me

#

My crab speculations

hushed steeple
cold steppe
#

I actually used the mantas when I got lost in the cave at the beginning of the season

normal berry
#

What confuses me is the amount of planets shown at the credits and if there were that many and only 6 elders than why jus one tiny earth
@sly kestrel so far we haven't found many planets with life, much less intelligent life, could be the same for them

hushed steeple
#

It doesn't look like other planets but more like parts of the planet sky was on

normal berry
#

@hushed steeple whats this?

hushed steeple
#

But please do tell me about the crabs

#

And how we should kill them

nooo
