jwlly SkyLOL

frozen pivot
#

Shh

#

Hm

#

Ok then, no civil war then

hushed steeple
#

I missed anything👀 ?

lethal stump
#

depending on how you interpret that, it was an idea/concept

#

not much, mini me

hushed steeple
#

Brick what happened with elder gang?

#

You changed name

lethal stump
#

we got back on topic lol
afterall, the server still exists

#

the elder server

#

(which anyone can join)

#

(the more the merrier)

frozen pivot
#

Its still a nice touch still

#

And there are still whale bones on graveyard pEyes

hushed steeple
#

Those aren't not of whales

#

The skull doesn't match with whale

#

Those are like of any kind bird/turtle

lethal stump
#

light turtle...i hope we eventually get to see that

frozen pivot
lethal stump
#

maybe krills are tortles without shells

frozen pivot
lethal stump
#

i mean, there’s 4 krill in graveyard, and there’s 3 or 4 skeletons aren’t there ?

frozen pivot
#

Going along with how these stuff came to life according to.the concepts, i like the idea that they werent fighting amongst themselves

#

But fighting le.creatures

#

Especially the ark and its supposed purpose

lethal stump
#

i like civil war cause
angst

frozen pivot
#

Nyehe sure civil war is gud too

#

But goddang the concept arts and descriptions are so good it makes me want to believe that thats wat really happened

lethal stump
#

yeah it is really cool

#

imagine

#

man vs nature

frozen pivot
#

I mean if these were the concepts then some of the idea could still be true about wat we have now

#

But that would be boring

lethal stump
#

i don’t wanna abandon the involvement of the creatures altogether
i think one of the sides in the civil war used a lot of dark creatures, probably the king’s side

frozen pivot
#

I literally just read through all the concepts and ye

#

Could be a corruption happening

#

The story in the concept about gw elder being half corrupted was cool tho

lethal stump
#

all the concepts are cool, it’s impossible to find one we wouldn’t love

frozen pivot
#

I just love wasteland's the most

#

Story wise, it had the most 'action' happening iirc wat i just read on the concepts

lethal stump
#

yeah, wasteland is definitely where the most stuff went down

frozen pivot
#

The catapult on graveyard be throwing skids on whales

#

And the skids go mach 10 bonking the whales

lethal stump
#

mach 10 isn’t humanly possible stickerShock

frozen pivot
#

Skids arent human

hushed steeple
#

Those skull aren't of whaled

lethal stump
#

the highest anyone has gone us mach 4 i think—

frozen pivot
#

Thats why theyre perfect for projectiles

hushed steeple
#

Whales*

#

Skeleton*

lethal stump
#

do u need help spelling, amio ?

frozen pivot
#

Amio let me call them that unless u have something else to call them other than bones

hushed steeple
#

I need to revise my English lessons again

#

I've proofs

#

Those aren't of whales

frozen pivot
#

Wat is it going to be early concept dragons?

hushed steeple
#

Go forest there's a whale skele

frozen pivot
#

The whales are organic creatures

#

They grow

hushed steeple
#

But the skull?

#

Wait I'll go there

#

Take pics

#

And post here with mentioning you

#

Ok?

frozen pivot
#

Amma just search it on google and predict wat ur gonna show me

#

My question of wat is the glass like material on chill spirit's sunglasses is still not answered sqwarlockDed

lethal stump
#

maybe it’s unlit diamond ?

hushed steeple
frozen pivot
#

Where did it come from and why does it look beautiful

hushed steeple
#

Saw any difference?

mortal viper
#

whale skelleton is weird because the ribs are upsidedown

lethal stump
#

wait
holy eden i never noticed that—

mortal viper
#

maybe krills are tortles without shells
@lethal stump this is weird

frozen pivot
#

Mh it does look different but hey creatures are diverse, could be another species of the same family or watevers the term for that

#

So ill call it whale bones until theres a proper name for it

hushed steeple
lethal stump
#

it is weird

mortal viper
#

biology says whale skull = fish and graveyard skull = turtle

frozen pivot
#

Oh ye the turtle concept

mortal viper
#

the weird part is that the vertebrae and ribs in graveyard are not turtles

frozen pivot
#

Yes lets call it bones for amio's sake

mortal viper
#

XD

#

it is a turtle fish

frozen pivot
#

The stag looking things tho

mortal viper
#

?

hushed steeple
frozen pivot
mortal viper
#

could be

sly kestrel
#

Reika said they are based on turtle AND whale bones, including the skulls

mortal viper
#

I have to check vertebrae formats to bee sure

sly kestrel
#

But as if right now, we got no idea what exact animal they are

mortal viper
#

yeah, they could be mamallian of fish

#

ribs look more mamallian

frozen pivot
#

Meh then whale bones and turtle bones are viable

#

Terms

mortal viper
#

what about a snake turtle? pEyes

frozen pivot
#

Names

#

Snek scary

#

The early concept for krills are hideous enough

hushed steeple
#

||Those are Oreo's skull||

mortal viper
#

there is a mithological creature in china that is a mix of snake and turtle, maybe whatever creature there was in graveyard, it was based on this mythological being

sly kestrel
#

Well, the pWhale doesn’t have an official name for the species, and it’s not actually a whale, it was a fan name given. This creature is based off of 2 different fish species
The same could apply to the creatures at the graveyard, based off of multiple creatures but no current creature name

hushed steeple
#

I'm giving this name "giant Oreo"pFIRE

mortal viper
#

the creature I am talking about is the XuĂĄnwu or the Black Tortoise, and it is the guardian of the North

#

it is similar to a Argentine snake-necked turtle, an actual livin animal

hushed steeple
#

What if those skeletons are ender dragon's

mortal viper
#

XDDDDD

lethal stump
#

this isn’t about skeletons, but i have a question

hushed steeple
#

What?

lethal stump
#

why do the elder graves/thrones have diamond-shaped holes in them ? any theories ?

hushed steeple
#

Maybe They've that hole on their body

mortal viper
#

all of them have diamond on their front, no?

#

the actual elders

lethal stump
#

yeah, they do

mortal viper
#

I think it is like the one in the kids

#

where they keep their light

hushed steeple
#

Hm

digital willow
#

Yeah, sky kids have a small thing in their stomach with two things surrounding it making it into a diamond shape.

cold steppe
#

brick, you have finally accepted the truth

digital willow
#

Nvm it's too blurry to see it.

cold steppe
#

you can see the one diamond

lethal stump
#

all of the elders have a diamond on their chest, with two brackets around them like ours

modern smelt
#

I have vault angst

lethal stump
#

GIVE US THE VAULT VAULT ANGST

modern smelt
#

The vault is so empty. It’s cold and alone and quiet. There are graves scattered through the vault, knowledge is hidden away. We can’t access it, we don’t know what they knew, what they learned. We can’t read their writings, we can’t access their technology. We wander through, small and fragile, through a place that echoes the end of a civilization

digital willow
#

Jeez that's sad.

modern smelt
#

On a related note, the horn is a good instrument to play through there

#

It’s slower, more solemn

digital willow
#

The cosmic mantas are majestic.

modern smelt
#

They are reminiscent of a better time

#

They are there to warm you before you face eden again

digital willow
#

On an even more deppressing note, in wasteland we watched a spirit die and in forest we also saw a spirits friends get crushed by boulders.

modern smelt
#

You right

digital willow
#

The sky kids have no concept of death so they saw that spirits death as fainting.

modern smelt
#

You right

#

Perhaps some of the older sky kids realize that it’s not fainting

digital willow
#

Yeah. Also the crying spirit is called a 'light miner'? What do you think that could mean?

modern smelt
#

Harvesting light from something

digital willow
#

Is that what the the doors are made of?

modern smelt
#

Perhaps?

#

The elders don’t realize that some of these spirits have died in horrendous ways

digital willow
#

It would make sense seeing as how we need light to open them.

modern smelt
#

Yeah

digital willow
#

I wonder what happened to the isle spirits to cause them to die?

#

Or praries.

modern smelt
#

Perhaps they died peacefully

#

These are just some of the most defining aspects of their lives

#

Perhaps the spirits are just a handful of spirits and we watch as they go through the different lands in hoping to achieve a better life

digital willow
#

I think seince isle of dawn is a desert it would make sense that they left at somepoint.

modern smelt
#

Yeah

gleaming flicker
#

I just realized that the elders represent different types of animals..

modern smelt
#

They explore and explore, curious and wanting to grow and improve their lives. Perhaps there were wars for resources

digital willow
#

Isle of dawns elder can make birds, praries elder can make butterflies out of light, i have no clue about the others.

modern smelt
#

Oooo

digital willow
#

Maybe the vault elder made the cosmic mantas?

modern smelt
#

Yeah

#

Perhaps it isn’t making them, but they are favored animals?

lethal stump
#

wasteland’s favoured animals are krill then pThink pSquint ?

modern smelt
#

Perhaps krill used to be a different creature

#

Or perhaps his creatures are mantas

#

But mantas are hunted by krill

#

Perhaps his are whales, or some other creature that died ages ago

analog sable
#

Krill kinda look like skeletal or undead remains

gleaming flicker
#

The valley elders used to be the birds-

#

Birds of a feather flock together deal.

analog sable
#

Maybe forest is jellyfish?

#

They turn up a lot

gleaming flicker
#

The hidden forest elder represents jellyfish, as she used to move like one in her old cutscenes.

modern smelt
#

Isle would be butterflies, prairie would be birds, forest are jellyfish, valley is possibly mantas? Wasteland is something long dead or whales, and then the vault is cosmos mantas

sly kestrel
#

I just realized that the elders represent different types of animals..
@gleaming flicker May I ask where u got that

analog sable
#

Her hair looks like jellies too!

sly kestrel
#

Or is that jus a theory

hollow tartan
#

Maybe wasteland is that giant eel thing that swims through the clouds

modern smelt
#

The whale

sly kestrel
#

It’s not actually a whale btw

modern smelt
#

Fair

sly kestrel
#

But yeah I get what u mean

gleaming flicker
#

Old cutscenes show that the valley elders represent birds and the hidden forest elder used to move like a jellyfish in her cutscenes. Prarie elder represents butterflies, especially with his hair and his butterfly pot.

sly kestrel
#

Old cutscenes are no longer canon tho

hollow tartan
#

Eels would make sense for wasteland as what else would make bones that big

sly kestrel
#

I mean u can head canon it but, keep in mind the old cutscenes are scrapped from a different version of the game that had a different storyline

gleaming flicker
#

It didn’t though??? The light and civilization fell and the children are supposed to return the stars(elders) back???

sly kestrel
#

Some of their old concepts actually show that they were supposed to be animals
Isle elder being a vulture, forest being a lynx etc
But if ur basing ur theory on old cutscenes, I jus thought u should kno they aren’t canon anymore

#

Also varieties of those creatures are found in all the realms, valley has more mantas then birds btw

analog sable
#

I may be wrong, but I'm not sure if that's what this stemmed from in particular

#

Not sure though

#

This is a good point, but maybe the creatures intermixed among realms, like the sky children do

sly kestrel
#

Before u say anything
I jus wanted to say real quick that all theories are welcome and sorry if it seemed like I turned it down

analog sable
#

Nono, it's okay

#

At least I'm good

gleaming flicker
#

I’m good too

sly kestrel
#

Was talking to ayin but okay

analog sable
#

Sorry, haha

hushed steeple
#

Ayin is prairie uncle tho

sly kestrel
gleaming flicker
#

But the cutscenes are more developed than the concepts, and actually played into the next cutscenes after interacting with the elders. The birds used to be the staple creature of valley, so it made sense back then.

hushed steeple
#

He's uncle or dad?pThink

sly kestrel
#

The only scrapped cutscenes are from Sky Light Awaits, and everything from there is non canon bc the story and the entire game rlly was completely different and doesn’t relate to the current Sky Children of The Light

#

Also amio, the most common family elder nickname was Praire uncle

hushed steeple
#

He's friendly🙃

sly kestrel
#

It’s Isle grandpa, praire uncle, forest auntie, valley actually doesn’t have a common used nickname, wasteland dad and Vault mom

#

But of course

#

There’s Vault vault too

hushed steeple
#

Vault mom?pEyes

static spoke
#

🤦‍♂️ Vault Vault? Again?

lethal stump
#

vault mom ? ive never heard that

#

only forest mom

sly kestrel
#

Ur new

#

And everyone refers her to forest auntie lol
But idk, ig some call her forest mom

#

I’m jus sayin what was most common

lethal stump
#

i call her forest mom pWow

gleaming flicker
#

Isle-Birds
Prairie-Butterflies
Forest-Jellyfish
Valley-Manta
Wasteland-Dragon
Vault-Whale

sly kestrel
#

Theory time

static spoke
#

Yay!

sly kestrel
#

No more nickname talk

hushed steeple
#

Kkkk

gleaming flicker
#

Based off of how they look, I have attributed those animals to the elders.

hushed steeple
#

*Vault one is *ghost mantA?

gleaming flicker
#

Isle and Prairie are obvious, but the others are if you look into the details of their realm-

static spoke
#

Yeah

gleaming flicker
#

Ghost mantas memories.

#

Are*
And there are different memory animals in there.

#

So, attributing a whale to her is more better, as the whale is a physical animal.
Though I could see the memory elder manta being attributed because of the text on her mask.

What's the lore of the game?

And we kinda lost

@modern smelt
Please please!

modern smelt
#

I have fans :D

The wastelands are a desolate place. It is harsh and dark and cruel. Creatures made of darkness lurk and scour, violently attacking anyone who walks past. We walk in empty hulls of ships. Spirits of soldiers give a salute to someone we can’t see, it is their last salute and they do not know it. Giant ships are strewn about, sand filling them as ages pass. They serve us as protection.for others, they were weapons, or prisons. The sands serve as mass graveyards, their ships serve as a timeless reminder of the horrors of war. Spirits of refugees face the dangers of soldiers and battles. They’re often alone. A frightened refugee holds an instrument, an item from a happier time. Perhaps we are the lucky ones, really. The angered eye of the krill is easy to avoid. They cannot hear, we have our music and our friends. The spirits faced armies alone in silence. Perhaps the spirits hear our music as we wander through. Perhaps they feel joy upon seeing we are not alone. Perhaps they feel remorse, wishing they could do something to protect us from the armies we can’t see.

Ooh that’s really good

@modern smelt
So the spirits are happing right now but I'm another dimensions of sort?

lost hull
#

I still have no idea what exactly happened but it’s so tragic and terrifying

modern smelt
#

I think the spirits are from a previous civilization

#

But if you’re dead, and so are entire armies, you are forced to deal with that all the time

red grove
#

That's so sad

jovial rivet
#

Bro.. you didn't make me almost cry for fictional characters..pCry pCry

short owl
#

I full cry for fictional characters regularly

modern smelt
#

Hey have y’all heard my compassion thoughts

red grove
#

I thought we were in the post apocalyptic world of sky, an age in which our golder years have long been gone. But so it is for our enemies. The krill, despite their looks, are now deaf and blind, barely being able to see a small scope of the world. Perhaps they were more dangerous before, but now they roam the earth in anger, the only emotion they are allowed to express, decaying as slowly as everything else. Poor things, for they do not know our race is back with a second chance, a second golden era, while they can only see anger and death for beings that are no longer here

modern smelt
#

Ooo

#

One of my theories of the creation of krill are skykids who are angry and it slowly consumes them

short owl
#

Don't you dare make me feel bad for krill. I will cry on you if you do. read as: I dare you to make me cry over krill

modern smelt
#

Alright, but I’m going to start at the beginning

jovial rivet
#

My idea of krill are that they were created to protect the skykids, but after the fall of civilization. There was a big war and they were used as weapons. Afterwards, they become confused and angry and tried to kill anything on sight

short owl
#

@modern smelt i remember you bringing up that one

agile galleon
#

@sly kestrel sorry for the ping, but some time has passed and I wanted to make sure you saw this. Please keep your comments respectful of others' theories. There's no reason to shoot ideas down because they aren't canon, the most popular/accepted idea, or fit your personal narrative. All ideas are welcome here. There is no harm to let imaginations run wild, so long as things are kept appropriate/abide by the rules of the server.

short owl
#

Cause the bodies never stop :(

#

Speaking of imaginations running wild, have you seen my Mind Control Megabird theory? It was supposed to be crack but it refuses to be.

red grove
#

I like to think the krill are sky kids but they lost all of their wings because of the red cristals. So, because they couldn't retake their wings (We have the privilege of having wings all over the world, but the past every single wings was a sky kid) they became so desperate they took some cristals and put them into their bodies. The corruption slowly but surely changed them

sinful anvil
#

im confused, so why do some interpet forest elder snatching the light away as a trauma response? i thought snatching something away from a beckoning hand shows greed or impatience.

hushed steeple
#

Wait wait what's the Mind Controle Megabird theory???

red grove
#

It's not that their mad or insane, they have conciousnes. But the cristals, much like they do to us, hurt them. It hurt them so bad they can only see a small scope of the world, using their last light to look for others light to steel.

short owl
#

@sinful anvil by the mind control theory, snatching the light away was done because of the sheer danger of the thing we brought.

lethal stump

sinful anvil
#

so its an instant reaction of “What are you holding?! that looks dangerous & not for you!!”

More like "NOPE NOPE NOPE KILL IT WITH HAMMER AND THROW IT OUTSIDE"

is it me or the skykid kinda recoils before she grabbed it

When you are first created, you are alone. You are bright and warm in a sort of cold place. You are shown beauties in the world. You are free and you can fly and you are beautiful. You explore and you discover more stories. You’re horrified at the light miner’s story, you are happy to help the elders. The golden wasteland is terrifying. The vault is calming. There are horrors you see and you are horrified by them and rightfully so. You finally make it to eden. It’s name is barely a whisper, people are scared to say it’s name, they won’t tell you what’s going to happen, just that it’ll be okay.

You watch as your friends turn to stone for the first time. You watch as their light dies. You watch as they sacrifice themselves for countless other nameless faces. It’s awful, to put it lightly, and then you die, eventually. You come back, of course, but then you realize that there are others who are still frozen.

You’re now trapped in an endless cycle of self sacrifice. You are saved, too, though. Someone else will come and try to help you. It is a curse and a blessing. Your compassion will be your savior and your demise.

You watch as more kids are created. There are two paths you can take here, so this time, anger is how we’ll go.

hushed steeple

I will cry

#

How dare you say something so beautiful yet so melancholy

Is there a way to save everyone in the Eden?

If you were to manage to reach the end and run backwards, coordinating with everyone else to reduce the number in the storm, you can reduce the numbers, but until you get to the point of returning from the point of no return...

Ohh yes! Let me do it right now!

hushed steeple
#

It looks so good what

lethal stump
#

aw thank you stickerHeart

modern smelt
#

You grow angry as you watch the elders do nothing to protect us. You watch as older kids grow desensitized to the horrors of the battlefield and the neglect of the elders. You grow bitter, and you try to protect the new kids. You scare them, trying to get them to stay away. In the forest, you leave them for a little too long in the rain. In the valley, you run into walls a little too hard.

If that doesn’t stop them, then the crimson wastes is your last chance. You lead them through, pretending to be kind and helpful, only to drop them where the krill can see them. You drop them in the oil and watch as the krill attack relentlessly.

Your light slowly dims. Your heart is no longer warm and bright and hopeful. Your physical form starts to deform as you try to protect the new kids through fear. You tune out the worries of your friends, slowly going deaf to the world around you.

You pretend to be calm with a nice blue light. The sight of a kid fills you with rage as it reminds you of the endless cycle you were once a part of, and your light turns red.

hushed steeple
#

Oh ma god

#

What the what that's amazing

modern smelt
#

As for the statues, there will never be no statues. There will always be one, for there will always be someone who cares enough to save you. There will always be a handful of people who are filled with such compassion and will try to save you.

also ive already gone through eden and everything so yea ill take all the spoilers

storyline of sky? it's very vague because it was intentionally put that way to make us create our own theories and discuss them here :') but you can ask about anything and you'll get some responses of theories here

the king is confirmed to be in-game, he's important to current lore according to ash but he's just not appearing like the elders or spirits

The king is dead.

But most of us agrees that he's dead.

wait so who is the king?

the king is the leader of the elders

is that a theory o: i saw king as a separate entity from eden elder

from the discussion last night, it could have been both a powerplant (from all the pipes) and where the king resided

Hey hey, so question for the community here (I don't wanna distract from the current topic for too long ^~^)/)

Is there a "base lore" master that I can refer to that might give me the bases agreed upon theories? While I've searched the internet, it seems the sky lore community here relegated here, but beyond that, I haven't found much else. Also, if you have any links or sources I can take a look at on hand, I'd love that too. I'm just very interested in engaging with this community and scouring the world for clues, but knowing what people already agree on would be a good start.

Thank you thank you ahead of time.

Well, there is no base lore

But there's a document of canon lore confirmed by tgc

Eden was a sort of pilgrimage or something, i forgot.

Oh I see. It hasn't happened to me yet, but what happens if you die outside of edan in game?

You get transported to a dark room with a star

If I'm being unclear with my questions, please let me know ^~^)/ these chats fly by fast and I'll prioritize speed over clarity.

#

also, in all technicality, megabird isn't confirmed to be in game

#

we think it's there, but there's not really enough solid evidence from the game or the devs to be able to definitely say that it's in game

kind bobcat
#

it was in-game but they scrapped it because she took too much cpu

cold steppe
#

my personal theory is that when we go through the portal, we are heading into the megabird

#

and then megabird yeets us back to Home

winged gazelle
#

Pitches children like a... fowl ball

#

I'm sorry

sweet dirge
#

Lmao

cold steppe
#

this was from about 6 months ago, so not sure if it's really a current theory or not

winged gazelle
#

Okay, so if ya'll don't mind me asking a few more questions. The children that you find in Edan, what are they about? (I understand most of this is just conjecture and theory)

cold steppe
#

there's a couple different theories

#

some theorized that they were a pre-skykid race that failed

sweet dirge
#

Ay the reactions SkyLOL

cold steppe
#

I think there's a theory that they're other skykids

#

that theory may be based on the fact that at one point in pre-launch beta, the statues that we save had friends' names on them

sweet dirge
#

Oh my

winged gazelle
#

Okay, that makes sense.

And, a weird thing, what are the bones? Obviously, in the graveyard there are a lot of massive bones and such, but you can also find similar bones in the Vault. I'm a little obsessed with them. Are they the sky fish things?

kind bobcat
#

the fact that in the third zone of eden there's a few statues that fall apart means that skykids can actually die permanently

winged gazelle
#

;-;

sweet dirge
#

I like to believe the bones are of another species that went extinct in sky

winged gazelle
#

I'd like to think so too.

cold steppe
#

I believe the devs have confirmed that at the very least, the bones below the cosmic manta call manta are not manta bones

there's a relatively new theory that the megabird may not be as good as we thought they were

kind bobcat
#

six adults practice child labour and get away with it

hushed steeple
#

It would be intriguing if they were canonically evil

cold steppe
#

can't speak for everyone, but I think the general consensus before this theory was proposed is that the megabird was good and/or neutral

hushed steeple
#

Do you think once the 2 years is up we get canon lore

kind bobcat
#

maybe

lethal stump
#

not really

cold steppe
#

once again, this also technically hinges on the fact that there is a megabird in-game

#

and that the megabird plays/played the same role as in the concepts

hushed steeple
#

True, megabird could not even exist and the devs just put a bird

but it's all very interesting to think about pPopcorn

Hello!

#

I crave angst

cold steppe
#

are skykids orphans or do they just not have "parents"

hushed steeple
#

I want to know people's theories so here's a question:
Why did the Valley elders throw what you held into the sky?

cold steppe
#

because fun

winged gazelle
#

So, question and back to the bones.

The only real fauna you see in sky are ones that are essential to the Sky world. Birds help you recharge, butterflies recharge and boost, rays carry you, and the big fish boy who bonks.

But, I have to ask, what happens when these animals die? Do we see birds in orbit? We def see translucent rays, but I don't remember birds and butterflies except in the ruined city in the sky.

So, do they die? And if they die, do they reincarnate?

The bones implies that something decayed. Was there something on the world before the stars fell, or are these bones the remains of things that are associated with sky. And if so, why collect them in the vault of knowledge, unless there was something to be learned?. Idk, just a lot of interesting things to think about with that.

modern smelt
#

They are technically orphans due to their parents, whoever they are, abandoning them

winged gazelle
#

And what's with the dead bird in the races?

hushed steeple
#

How are sky kids created if they dont have parents

#

Wait what do you mean dead bird???

modern smelt
#

I want to know people's theories so here's a question:
Why did the Valley elders throw what you held into the sky?
We can go fluff or angst, fluff is so that they can share things with others. Angst is so that they can show off their power and hold the resources to themselves/their areas instead of using it to help the players

winged gazelle
#

At the entrance of the big... Observatory? Is that what it's called?

There's a statue of a dead bird.

There are pipes which run through the lands. Oil infects the water, harming all who pass through it, mistaking it for the crystal waters of previous lands. Smog blocks out the sun’s light, instead leaving you to bear this awful, relentless heat. Breathing hurts, almost as if the air is trying to suck the life out of you.

Life cannot thrive there, rotting carcasses’ smells are blocked by oil and smog. Oil chokes out those who try to pass through. The sight of plant life is missing, leaving you to hope desperately for some sort of reprieve. There is a hidden oasis, trying to grow. Your nurturing hands help the oil cleanse itself. The smog clears and the moon shows it’s face. Life flocks there, should it survive long enough.

The krill survive only through not needing food. It hunts patiently, waiting for some young, naive sky child to pass by. Darkness is common in these lands. Cold hearts solidify here, turning angered kids into creatures of devastation.

The crimson wastes used to be a gorgeous, quiet, desert, now it is a screaming reminder of all the death which haunts these lands.

Why did the Valley elders throw what you held into the sky?
@hushed steeple cause mind control light is dangerous and you wanna get rid of it. Also because SkyElderValley1 was too busy showing off to think straight.

hushed steeple
#

Can you explain the whole mind control light for me, if you can.

As someone that spends a lot of time with their sister I can assume Anime Hair was also being whiny and didn't want their twin to get the light

Also the entire Eden king being reborn as the Sky kid is brutal and I'm in love with it

digital willow
#

I did a more comprehensive look at the vault mask.

short owl
#

So the theory goes that the megabird, being of light. Is a collective conciousness capable of exerting their will on others.

While it's difficult to tell, this would be deffinately supported by say, megabird being a collectice conciousness made of many beings

hushed steeple
#

what if the eden king is the sky kids just reincarnated a bunch of time

I think about this part of the Beginning Cutscene a lot.
The kid seems like a normal spirit child.
I came up with the theory the Skykid was born using a dead spirit as a vessel, to fill it with a piece of Megabird's light.
Now pEyes I'm starting to think the dead child used as a vessel is either the King or a fragment of what's left of the king

My theories are usually way more lighthearted but you gotta get angsty when it comes to Eden and King lore

Only krill legs? I gotta up my game

NO

Lmao

Ok so the devs said that the skykids capes were made of light, and their masks were made of stone (was it darkstone or regular stone?), so what are their bodies made of??

hushed steeple
#

DO IT

#

Stoneeee

You guys need to spend a month in prairie and sanctuary

You guys need to spend a month in prairie and sanctuary
@mortal viper jokes on you I already spend a lot of time there

rugged needle
#

Ok masks are regular stone

mortal viper
#

Wax bodies

rugged needle
#

Wax???

digital willow
#

They would melt though.

mortal viper
#

@heady sinew, then you are an evil crab already

hushed steeple
#

When you run out if winged lights you turn into a statue. So sky kids can just be statues brought to life by the elders, like how there are story's of gods making humans and bringing them to life

mortal viper
#

Charcoal then

digital willow
#

Bur then they would burn when set on fire.

heady sinew
#

bump have this angsty headcanon I just came up with

hushed steeple
#

And it seems fire or whatever could be their most valuable resource, like the stories of ancient humans

#

Idk that's just what I thought of

rugged needle
#

Oh so maybe when you're gray, you're like cold wax and normally you're hot wax?

@mortal viper your right Sanctuary is the best place to let my mind go wild about how the very beings that let the world turn are the ones that make the world burn

mortal viper
#

It is a magical world people, stone boats can fly

digital willow
#

True.

hushed steeple
#

magic

#

everything is magic

digital willow
#

Maybe they are wax and I'm just being too logical.

hushed steeple
#

the toilets in the office are magic

rugged needle

Logic is good tho

short owl
#

And thousands of the same sky kid can be held in a time loop, yes

rugged needle
#

They also ding when you crash

digital willow
#

Maybe they're the embodiment of creativeness.

heady sinew
#

The story of Popol Vuh (k'iche mythology, Mayan) narrates how the gods wanted to make a world to fill up the empty void.
And how they went through many types of materials to create humans, mud, corn, wood, clay.

hushed steeple
#

You have a bell in your head

rugged needle
#

HAIR IS MADE OF CLOUDS or marshmallows

#

Bells for brains

hushed steeple
#

wheeze

digital willow
#

Hair would make sense as light though I think.

heady sinew
#

It disappears when you run out of light so yeah

digital willow
#

It is very glowy sometimes.

heady sinew
#

Also, many light creatures just show up from the clouds

Fluffy light

Oh neat

It is a diamond factory

Bells for brains is my new favorite hc, and I won't take any other excuse for the dinging crashes (unless it's really good)

digital willow
#

Same.

#

The yellow diamond's in the picture above is coming from pots.

#

/i mean how else can we honk

digital willow
#

We have horns for vocal cords?

rugged needle
#

OH WAIT

#

Oh yeah nvm thats sounds better

digital willow
#

?

rugged needle
#

I was gonna say like those bike horns, but there's a bell in the squeezey part

digital willow
#

I could just imagine a sky kid going around sounding like a jeep.

heady sinew
#

The yellow diamond's in the picture above is coming from pots.
@digital willow Omggg you're right, and the blue ones come form "underneath" the surface. So power diamonds need both light and a solid structure

#

Devs said this symbol is important,,,, I can think of it as an uncomplete power diamond (missing the bottom part) but idk how would that affect the plot

gray bridge
#

i think that's a king symbol

digital willow
#

Maybe the light that was collected in prarie is used in the creation of the power diamonds.

heady sinew
#

Also shown in these two places (maybe there's more but I got lazy)

gray bridge
#

oo yesyes

digital willow
#

There's more.

#

Alot more I think.

heady sinew
#

Maybe the light that was collected in prarie is used in the creation of the power diamonds.
@digital willow it probably is, we discussed this theory before and we assume Prairie was the place where the light is obtained, while forest gets the rocks

#

Alot more I think.
@digital willow of course, but I just didn't wanna look for them lol

digital willow
#

There was also light in the caves because one of the forest spirits is called a 'light miner' and they had a pickaxe.

#

It's the crying emote.

gray bridge
#

yeah that's what we discussed

#

the forest stuff is the light rock caves

digital willow
#

I wonder if the rocks are related to to the red eden rocks.

#

Or they're a similar type of sediment.

gray bridge
#

the red eden rocks are from the eden diamond i think

#

could be true, the eden diamond might be a huge power diamond gone wrong? i forgot the theory about that one

kind bobcat
#

i am

#

In a pickle

#

The first row of the runes has 13 letters and is shifted to the left by one letter

#

Which means the main cluster of letters' top row has 12 letters

#

While the rest only has 11

I'm transcribing brick's transcription

Well 🧱 @lethal stump I think the 8th letter of 2nd row (from left) is the sky form of "E" not the "F"
And there's no missing letter I think after seeing the clear image

I’d also call you a true Sky Scholar tbh

unfortunately, Hage's amazing megabird album is no longer accessible pCry
@cold steppe it is unfortunate ! It used to be an album of literally everything lore related screenshotted and captioned (mostly captioned) including concept art ; it would have been a true lore primer if it still existed but then again maybe it’s cached in google?

hage, megabird stuff and everything lore-related was inside? o:

hollow pier
#

It had everything including captioned descriptions, but only 80% of it was captioned so it wasn’t ready for release yet

#

Megabird, king, murals, spirits, mantas, beta, eden, bones, literally everything except a darkstone/power diamond section I realise now

#

Lost to the winds of the internet, it got krilled

if only we could get everyone here to make like

a google drive of all that stuff

yes true

sly kestrel
#

I actually have quite a few notes on the sky glyphs and symbols. I also found a ton of writing irl that looks suspiciously familiar to the sky symbols. The meanings I found to them were interesting too, especially regarding the fact that they were on the bells. Lemme send it real quick

hushed steeple
toxic delta
#

Someone probably pointed it out already lol I'll delete it if so the eden door reminds me of the king

#

Cause every door its inspired by the elder image

spring blaze
#

amio i feel like thats an old model of the bell

toxic delta
#

And then we got this hunk

#

With elders at the bottom and that on top reminds me of the prince on their mecha suit

hushed steeple
#

Hm
But it needs to change now ginsy?

gray bridge
#

seems like if it's included and affects in the spirit memories, it will turn a very pale blue/white

tender dune
#

Yeah every door has a smol elder like face to them

toxic delta
#

I know

gray bridge
#

roughly, it kind of looks like the gates are very rough outlines of figures of the elders to the extent a portal can manage?

toxic delta
#

So m like what if the king is on the door the eden door

hushed steeple
#

He's there

toxic delta
#

Since it looks kinda like the mecha suit sort of

hushed steeple
#

That's a king propaganda

toxic delta
#

He has the biggest door what an ego

gray bridge
#

hold on, eden gate looks like a mountain pEyes

tardy spire
#

I feel like the Eden door/gate/thing is repressing the king on the mountain like it was supposed to be in the concept art, he was on the mountain, and you would go up to him and free him sort of, so maybe that’s the meaning behind it ish, and if you looked at the old concept art, you would free the king (or light it kinda) with a light, and that action probably representing the bell

I’m really new to this kind of stuff so I probably have said something someone else has said

gray bridge
#

like the mountain we see from realms

hushed steeple
#

I'm literally bored to use this word now "king propaganda"pFIRE

toxic delta
#

Oooo

#

Noice

tender dune
#

Anyways seeya stickerWave

spring blaze
#

amio, one can theorize that the bell model the clap spirit shows is an old model of the bell back in their days, and the model we have in life was an updated, newer model

#

assuming spirits change the bells over periods of time

hushed steeple
#

Oh

#

Ok

#

But

#

*live (I think)

spring blaze
gray bridge
#

idk if i understood that correctly, so it's like the white bell model was the bell the spirit had back in their memories that we relive?

spring blaze
#

tes

#

yes

#

like uh, replacing the model with a better model or something

#

like upgrading from an iphone 4 to an iphone 6

toxic delta
#

Wait so how did the spirits die again

#

I assumed they all died in the same era

hushed steeple
#

Oreo killed them

toxic delta
#

Then who would update the bell

sinful gull
#

well something happened with eden and then hundreds of years passed as you see in the very beginning story intro

spring blaze
#

probably another spirit we dont see

#

its a theory tho

#

chances are the white bell model was simply an old model that hasnt been updated

toxic delta
#

New bell better resonance

#

In a rush to travel

#

Wait no more

#

Assuming the bells job is to summon mantas

#

Since that seems to be its function in game we can see

sly kestrel
#

Anyone else has noticed this?
In SkyClap spirit cutscene the bell is different...
@hushed steeple the reason why it looks like that is bc it’s showing that it’s involved in the spirit memory, and that’s why it’s blue. To make it simpler, it’s a spirit bell

hushed steeple
#

Ghhhooossst bell?👀

#

👻

sly kestrel
#

Yep, it’s jus saying it’s part of the memory

#

Like the rocks in the cry spirits memory

gray bridge
#

and that tree from the lumberjack one in forest right?

i am bad at remembering names stickerGloomy
