Maybe that's where the purple GW sludge comes from
Wasn't the Forgotten Ark meant to be a like a sort of help? I think they were coming back after the disaster to restore the land and then crashed
I read about it, but the Ark was supposed to run away, but then the Dark creatures did a pro kamikazee move
Yes, the pipes are oozing those sludges
Really?? Woa
I think the ark was sabotaged by the krill in the forgotten ark..
Idk I thought the Ark was coming from somewhere else as help.
Shipwreck on the other hand
might have been a failed attempt at escaping
If they were there to restore the land, they would have come at a different time, a time where the dark creatures were gone or scattered
but it was by then that the warriors defended as best they could, but the darkness just yeeted themselves and Noah's Ark just went crashing down
The shipwreck is different though
Cause it isn't the same as the other boats
It has a smoke stack
The shipwreck might have been in the time of industrialization
It wasn't shipwrecked then.. I guess
It's filled with golden vases (those we see at Forest temple)
But for boats
@pale kestrel oooh okay thank you, I didn't know that
Hmmm I don't think winged light count as light creatures
Cause the wl is standing in the mouth of one of the jars
Though, even if they are not light creatures, I've noticed most winged light are close to a light source
They were supposed to be enchantments, the Jars
They could be trading those golden jars.
I don't think wl would exist back then
they might have contained spells
In Forest they're sheltered from the rain. So maybe the Winged Lights are trying to stay as close as possible to a light source (like the vases full of light energy)
especially the Forgotten ark, it might have been full of restoration spells
that kinda explains why they could restore a part of the land in the forgotten ark area
Also does anybody know what this is?
I'm pretty sure it was filled to the top with spells to restore a whole land but most of it got lost thanks to the crash
Makes me think if the floating lights are restoration spells
The distant factory thing
I'm pretty sure it was filled to the top with spells to restore a whole land but most of it got lost thanks to the crash
@heady sinew maybe that's why the lights are scattered throughout the land
Or maybe the lights were ingredients for the spells?
@heady sinew maybe that's why the lights are scattered throughout the land
@half ridge exactly, the orbs got carried away by the strong winds and fell on the places they're currently found
The distant factory thing
@pale kestrel I was also wondering that's that.. but might it be the temple? Idk
they collected the different lights and made restoration spells, but then got crashed so they asked a bunch of random skids
"hey you there, get that light and I'll give ya a heart, capishe?"
It's weird how one ended up in the area of the vault thoš¤
@pale kestrel I was also wondering that's that.. but might it be the temple? Idk
@half ridge yeah that's what my brother assumed
Did the lights go to places they're attracted to???
They were blessings
as far as I remember, they were gifts/blessings
ingredients
like the green light, and how it was a gift from the sky to the earth
šļø
Ohh... Yeah, the clues had those notes..
Took a while to find a pic, that faraway factory has a similar shape to the "diamond press" machine at the forest temple
Oh yeah,
It might be a 2.0 version lol
Forest was a level teaching about the consequences of innovation
It was at forest I think? where they found Dark stone
It's weird how one ended up in the area of the vault thoš¤
@half ridge my theory is that the scholars found it and stored it away to study it closely
@half ridge my theory is that the scholars found it and stored it away to study it closely
@heady sinew but then it was at a time where the war was raging...
It's all weird and complicated for me, I'm still a lore Moff
Also does anybody know what this is?
@pale kestrel I just realized it's not the shape of the temple... Hmmm
We need the veterans
Help~ it's hard to be a lore moff š
The pinned messages are the first
Someone that has played from the first version of sky....
To explain the lore I could understand from the Enchantment season:
Spirits (probably Season of Lightseekers spirits) find natural energy.
They find a way to store this energy to be used to their benefit.
They show this to (probably) Vault Scholars.
The war is damaging Wasteland so they both agree to build and Ark filled with Orbs filled with the energy to heal the damaged land.
The trip fails, either because the boat got caught in the storm, or got attacked by Krills attracted to fresh food, or both.
Ark gets buried under the sand with time.
Enchantment season happens, Skykids restore the small area
seems legit
but the ark was confirmed to be attacked by dark creatures
with an explosion
When???
I'm no veteran, but I think I was around this channel when they discussed that pic XD
It's what sparked the dark factory theory, no?
I wasn't there plz enlighten me with a screenshot or something 
I wasn't there plz enlighten me with a screenshot or something
@heady sinew there was a timeline presented
It was posted in this very discussion
People saw that exact structure in GW, noted the pipes and then speculated that it was some factory
This one?
I think the spirits lived despite the crash and tried to live there that's why there are farm and stuff..? But they died in the end anyway
The timeline I just sent is from the concepts. Stuff here was edited or removed from the Live-Version. I remember we used this to speculate and get inspired.
I don't remember anything about the Ark being attacked in the Live-Version of the app
This one?
@heady sinew There was another
Idk I didn't find the pic
but still OOooh lemme read
It kinda sparks a bit like the other timeline
Gtg, I gotta prepare for a quiz
ya'll stay frosty
Reused or is it another temple like the forest..š¤
Yow it soo good to read that@heady sinew
Read what? 
So itās true that the krills is from the light creature
But the krills come from the light creature that corrupted near to that storm place
Thatās mean it show us like Atlantean people legend...
They crave for more power
Then the creature that keep that Dark Stone become so angry until they attack again and again
Maybe Sky people want to make another temple that look same as hidden forest/(forbidden forest)in wasteland but then get attacked by krills because itās so near to the storm
Is this just a detail or something
Just detail I think
The edits from computer maybe
So that Dark Stone actually is forbidden
@pale kestrel that's another powered diamond factory in wasteland
Ooh, when I said "Krill that got attracted to fresh food" I meant it in a sort of predator-prey kind of way. I don't think the Krill are corrupted creatures (yet)
I see them as a different kind of species that is made out of darkness instead of light, they eat light out of instinct of survival, not greed
In the pic
I just read it in the pic
In wasteland there are many factories
The timeline is concept art, nothing is confirmed lore in there
Ooooo
And forest temple itself a factory
Really??
Ye
Details might have been changed, sorry if I caused a misunderstanding 
Jay, master theorist 
Or it just secret forest that hold ancient power as the live sky version said when we past from second gate
(Is the forest temple using mantas in the factory (((;źæ_źæ;)))
like zelda: botw?
You guys know that place where you first encounter the krill?
Yup
Broken factory
Krill boi eats the ray, y'all know it
y is a ray there in the first place,, , like howd it get ther , ,
y is a ray there in the first place,, , like howd it get ther , ,
I question this too
Is the forest temple also a factory?
The last ray in the factory...?
Ray: yey, finally escaped
Krill: 
Probably
Yeah, that's what I thought. Okee. So, I found a couple things. It's probably been spotted before, but a couple pictures are incoming.
I feel bad for that manta
(rip ray, will always be loved)
But, there's gold thingy that pulls up the elder statue in forest. And it's toppled over next to a space where a statue could be placed. Like it was towering above it.
Broken you know
I really want to learn more about the plants we burn. Such as why do they give us candle points when we burn them.
That's a reward for melting darkness i think
They're darkness plants and I think they take the light of the surrounding area, I'm assuming it tries to metabolize or conceal it.
But they are so beautiful
Which like, same. If someone turns on the light when I'm sleeping, I will eat the whole lamp.
Oohh. So we get the light it stores
It's an idea, and strictly conjecture on my behalf, but ya.
Ah kukubi i don't think that gold thingy was hanging that area shown in 3rd pic
It was hanging over the pres
Press
I wonder if they kill the butterflies when they harvest them
But yeah, back to the destroyed factory before the graveyard, it's pretty interesting. It's nearly completely buried under sand, and had that weird gold thing. Obvs its a factory, but I just wonder if there might have been a statue. Perhaps someone who supervised the factory, or a respected foreman.
Maybe not. It kinda looks like it though. Hold on.
It's the placement of everything that's just got my gears turning. Are videos allowed in here?
I wonder if they kill the butterflies when they harvest them
@winged topaz
It... Might be why we don't see butterflies except in hidden spaces when krill are present. ;-;
But like the butterflies automatically gives you light power . I think they just put them in the big vases and cover the mouth with wax. And that explains why we see vases all over the place
(the spirits put the butterflies in jars. Huhu those monsters)
You call them vases. Krill call them kinder eggs. Cromch.
-three times-
You're first introduced to the big ol boyo when you're flying from valley to wastes. It breaches through the clouds and if you pay attention, it's actually circling the little community area before you go in to the vortex.
It'll breach out from time to time and yell at you.
Oh okay
Well, not first introduced. It was the first time I was introduced because I didn't find the underground forest.
Theory.
The twins game ( valley elders) is a game of death. The light they play with is one of the players light . While one of them is trying to capture the light the other one is defending their light.
That cloudy area before you reach the wasteland community area is my favorite place to practice music tbh. There are a couple good spots.
That's a neat one. I kinda like that they're playing competatively in the end.
Yup šš»
Sharing the pics of whale boi again because it's cute haha
Honestly, I think lore channel has the biggest whaleboy fanclub.
We need a whaleboy fanclub role
Whaleboy is the cutest creature.
In ||office there's this board full of all realms and explaintions or concepts about them, but I can't see vault? Was vault added after them? Like did they add it after a while and they didn't plan to add it first?||
No need to spoiler tag here~
just to make sure-
The vault probably doesn't fit in with the themes..
Oh, but they probably just didn't put it there. Because in IG, the vault is the night stage.
Vault is just the knowledge of this game or Sky
It is added for us as we travelled more....kind of memories pieces realm
With more knowledge
Ahh ye
as said in the name 
KNOWLEDGE GAAANNNGSSS
I said that itās the memories realm because as we can see now, every spirit has name on it now...
And one of the spirit in the vault with white cape is Memory Whisperer

When mantas die do they turn into cosmic mantas or itās a different creature?
Sharing the pics of whale boi again because it's cute haha
@half ridge
god bless
I'm laughing @cosmic igloo profile picture 
@gusty hinge I just need someone to be crab-chan 
Guys guys! The third bell ||only released two mantas. What if theyāre mama and papa manta?!? š„ŗ! ||
third bell's live already, you don't have to spoiler that haha
This is the one thing thatās actually canon in office
The posters show that each realm represents a stage of life
This was confirmed by the devs a few different times
The posters show a variety of concept art pics for the realms, but one thing that for SURE stayed canon is the fact that each realm represents a stage of life
Isle, birth
Praire, childhood
Forest, teenage years and being adolescent
Valley, adulthood
Wasteland, midlife crisis
Vault, old age and enlightenment
Eden, death
Orbit, rebirth
Ye
Man I wish my friends discussed the lore more
Where do you get screenshots of the concept art?
Thereās a pinned website filled with it
O:
Is this possible that the gate is megabird's mouth?
Possibly
Comparing with this concept art
But, personally, I like the eye theory better.
š
Isle, birth
Praire, childhood
Forest, teenage years and being adolescent
Valley, adulthood
Wasteland, midlife crisis
Vault, old age and enlightenment
Eden, death
@sly kestrel
This would sort of fit with everything. In Forest, they made a mistake because they were too new to the area(they werenāt āadultsā and didnāt realize what they were doing wrong). And in Wasteland, they paid the price for their mistakes. As they got older (Vault-Hindsight: 20/20.) They realized what they did wrong. Eden-death
Actually um.....the life stage names werenāt for the actual story but the environment of the realm
Isle, where ur born into the world
Praire, ur childhood is fun and playful
Forest teenage years, ur emo and get into a depressing stage
Valley, ur an adult and ur competing with other adults while also being at ur lifeās peak and everything is jus wonderful and happy
Etc
BUT I GET WHAT U MEAN THO, nice observation
where did you folks find the backstory timeline thing???
there's no canon timeline made for the current version of the game
but there was a timeline in the concept art/tomcepts
whatās tomcepts
hello boop, yes the tomcepts can be found in tom zhao's website! link is in the channel's pins 
same it's usually alive when i'm busy 
I..I am still relatively new
So I rarely see this place alive?
It's alive when I'm sleeping
It's alive when I'm not here
thereās some times where itās very lively
others where nothing happens for hours !
Oh hi š§± y
hello amio
when we're active, it's 50% lore ans 50% cursed topics
This should jumpstart the topic.
wait, why is vault all the way over there when itās supposed to be at the base of the mountain ?
@lethal stump it's ordered from left-right i think, not based on its location from eden
i hope thatās the case
otherwise
- confusions *
Also, there's three streaks here
i wonder if there was a huge city at eden but the king sent it into orbit or something
Well, there's something similar to valley under eden.
Valley was where most people lived, it was the capital
hmm
Eden is more of a holy temple/castle
A Mayan temple
a holy temple where the king is worshipped
omg
I would like to argue this channel is closer to 25% lore, 80% cursed topics
true
maybe they sacrefuced people at eden
no
On a table!
no
That was a recent tradition. They almost ran out of sacrifices but then they made something that could be sacrificed repeatedly
Why perform sacrifices when your followers willingly sacrifice themselves to you?
Candol
I was thinking that people didnāt want to be a sacrifice and so, the dark creature escaped because they werenāt pleased
maybe thats the back swirly thing
in the top right corner
those are the people that were the people sacerficed and they want revenge
Yes
we are making progress
the bodies of Sky kids
We give old sacrifices flight to clean the altars.
lol
we are now solidly in the cursed territory
Cursed bodies
maybe the darkness was making the bodies spin around it binding then in a forever cyrcle sto look cool
Just a theory
They didnt have sacrifices in eden
Just.
A.
Theory.
But.
Not.
Lore
Channel's back to being dead again.
Too late!

@hushed steeple wait why is eden-

That's Eden elder
oh that swirly thing in the sky is umm the orbit thingy with all the birds
Prince?
Maybe
I thought it was an Eye
hmm
Was there ever an eden elder?
Hello
Meganās eye
yes there was an eden elder
eye of megan
Was there ever an eden elder?
@tender kelp Yes, the 'King'
Who fell

From grace
XD
He went "Mario world"

He went āpoofā
Or maybe

good morning my favorite bunch of braincells
Pssst. There are sacrifices in Eden.
Has anyone noticed the glowing lines in Isle temple walls looks like birds?
Sorry if this is offtopic, oof.
They're also in Forest, couldn't see in others tho.
Theyāre also in Parier
Hi krill
All birds lead to Eden. all roads lead to Rome
@static spoke wAIT WHAT?!
This is it overlayed with the prince/king's mask
Hm?
know what else it looks like?

gasp
Does anyone know how the king looks like 
the structure in the back of some eden statues
@tender kelp
brace for concept
Thanks Iām saving that
Krill do you have pics?
There's also these
I have the drawing I made
Share
and some bad pics from eden
It's hard to take pictures of those vanes, but trust me, it looks like the same symbol 
yup
Lol
I thinks there is one of these on the ground in eternal rain of death part
Should I go to eden? I havenāt gone there in a while
yeah, bring back souvenir photos
yeah
XD
I would go too but I just finished wl run so...
@static spoke this will work?
Mmm
What is that 

@static spoke topview of eden from the orbit cutscene
it has been said before but we should really all go to disneyland together for a lore hunting excursion trip 
yeah, the architecture of eden is very reminiscent of valley
king, king everywhere
Let's go together ,next weekend
This os from my last eden run
I could go to eden today 
You can see eden palace in the second pic, hidden by the fog
Pieces of dead Sky children
I noticed there's a mask on that trophy room(?)...
Could be a mask or a sculpted diamond
Diamond shape
that reminds me of forest elder or vault elder
The king is small?
The prince is smol
When the prince has his mech suit?
Yeah it's a decorative diamond
Decorative diamond then
The same as the one on top of the building
Hmm..
It's decorative I think so
The kind chose diamonds to show his accomplishment of having made power diamonds?
btw goob
the comparison between the star and the king crown is very very very interesting
hmmm maybe it's something like that oliver? it coupd have something to do with his probably over-inflated ego and pride
All hail oreo
Says the King
@static spoke to wasteland, filling it with his statues and turrets shaped like him
Hmm maybe the things from praire tunnel were things the elders put to guide new players if they didn't know where to go???

The corrupt power diamond
@static spoke to wasteland, filling it with his statues and turrets shaped like him
i made another king meme kinda based on this in #sky-memes
hmmm
yes, that's the farting power diamond
i think the blast from it caused the storm and killed the whole of sky civilisation
hmm
Yes
Res I love your work
I wondered
why did you delete all that 
Yes you can res
yayay
Channel is š
Me wanting to type in this channel but knowing nothing out about the lore so I'm too afraid to ask 
Donāt afraid just say something you want to say we all can accept it and discuss about it
a moff ! hello !
Right?
lol same im crappy at analyzing
welcome to lore chat !
Thank you qwq
Or no?...š
Guys is there a Detailed Analysis Of Lore in any PDF format..Like a Novel or something...With description of Spirits....even seasonal ones....
š§±!
check the pins, they have everything you need to start
no sadly we don't have videos/docs on the lore of the spirits
Lore is basically a bunch of people discussing the history of Sky by sharing their ideas and agreeing on a common idea.
Hmm I think the story behind this is. So first sky kids prayed to get freedom from dark they were forced to give power to dark then darkness (krills,crabs,darkness,eden) spread through all the levels and formed krills,crabs,darkness sky kids had to save the day and elders helped?
we're supposed make our own theories of the lore haha, so much of what we say is not canon lore but is what we think about it
oooo
This lore discussion is more crazy than Star wars lore discussion LOL
Okay canon is the confirm idea from developers
Other thing is fanon,that mean is fake ideas or just for fun
We are all CrAzY
thatās a cool theory, Avacado, however Imma point out that skykids didnāt exist back then. those are ancestors, like the spirits we relive
This is my first time talking in lore š¬
I love crazy lore like we are crazy scientists for Sky
thatās ok !
Oh that makes sense!
But Iām newbie here
What if it's less to do with power and more to do with ascension?
@golden cave I have a lab theory
???
A lab experiment gone wrong and turned the krill into what they are today
There
Scientists incorporated
Lololol
ššš¤Ŗ
Because you said, āI love crazy lore like we are crazy scientists for Skyā
when, though ?
probably they ate the Black Liquid 
When the king was around
[Alien reference]
Then ancestors needed our help then we did levels we basically kinda are like a hero??
well...thereās a lot to get into in that sentence, Ava

itāll take some time of being here
But we might be the king, so we would technically not be the hero
Anybody has a theory how ||office|| came into existence??....Like Devs accidentally Made a portal in Real world to the sky world...They saw this 7 realms And Came back to our world and Made the gameš
office isn't canon
Office isnt lore
Lul
We donāt need to use spoilers here!
Oohh...newbie to lore hereš
i feel like skykids have inner haughty energy, enough that when they see king statues in gw they would hurl stones like āi have enough of this dudeā
Yep
and then they find out they re the king
PLOT TWIST!
office isn't canon
@gray bridge that's what the devs wants you to believe.....š š




ok anyway-
okay, too much of the emojis
So much
OREO
Ehh I donāt remember how to make the word turn to spoiler
(been thinking about gw aesthetic and hallownest aesthetic and how they both have king sigils to perpetuate the ⦠propaganda)

||thank you||
we donāt need to spoiler here
Wow
I already said that
Okayy
the « spoilersĀ Ā» at the end of the channel name means you donāt need to spoiler
Okay we just trying
@nova tiger yes why
the subtitle's got a change
?
It comes everytime you enter ark
oh crap this isn't QnA
my apologies
ipad on QnA rn, and i didnt notice the name change
Is that a joke? The subtitle?
And u don't need to spoiler anything here
comparison literature on Eden and Pale King: both are kings with godly connections; both installed architectures with their sigils to perpetuate their legacy and presence even after ādeathā; their ādeathsā are also mysterious and subject to interpetation; most of all, their legacies are still extant in some way that are visible to their slightly related descendants, when said descendants stumble upon their ruins and slightly sense the little life the ruins leave
Fair warning: some topics get weird. Like unreliable narrator.
Maybe winged lights are sky children who failed to fight the storm and their memories were put in levels to make the new sky children more powerful and strong enough to fright the
storm?
Is sky inspired from Lot of religions?? I see a lot of myths from different religions tbh
@velvet garnet maybe itās true for fanon?
Ouh yeah @digital knoll itās like they like to take something from our real life things
But for only some culture only
Not all of them
In App Store they like to said that itās from Tibet culture and so ever
The most commonly accepted theory, Ava, is that the Imprints of the Child of Light (iāll call them ICLs for now) are imprints of the Prince/King travelling through the kingdom towards Eden, since many believe that the Prince is the Child of Light
I donāt remember much
however that doesnāt stop you from making your own theories !
Yeah that is the common theory that we believe for now
But I thought Prince is the child of that King?
šš
The concept of Rebirth is from Hinduism...Hindus Believe about infinite life times Born in the dawn to die in twilight.....The Season of Gratitude was closely related to Bhutan I think...My friend mentioned. The Concept of Light gives power is from one.....It goes on
yes, sky is inspired by different religions, though that doesn't make sky a religious game
May I ask? Does Hinduism also believe in pheonix theory?
And some from fairiesš
Because I can relate in my mind that Megabird actually is the Big Pheonix
Phoenix theory??
Pheonix is from Greek right?
Yeah Exactly
Megan
Not from Hinduism
Yeah that infinity life....Pheonix also bring the meaning of infinity life right?
I'm confused here lol
Yeah...I guess....reborn from the ashes
Ava, I suggest reading the pins to get caught up !
Yeah
Sure!
Then you can say anything that can relate to this Sky lore
Hey, reading about what is confirmed/canon lore, what's darkstone? Is it the red glowy bois??
Ohhhhh
Maybe now they turn that stone to that red glory stones
darkstone hasnāt been confirmed to be in game, weāre still speculating
Got it
yes in canon lore doc in the pins
Yeah I saw the video of travellers guide....Jenova chen said...Sky is one of the stories .
š³.....we barely scratched the surface š
ash confirmed here that the king exists in the lore and that the crabs walk cycle mimic something

Hey what does the megabird thing look like? It says it's appeared twice but I don't know what they're talking about
top right corner
Is this off topic
Isle elder - tells u to go to the storm
Praire elder- butterflies!
Forest elder- tries to smash ur light
Valley twins- fights for your light
Wasteland- needs ur light to fight
Vault- it's time for u to go to storm kiddo
Yep
you can see it when you look up in orbit (in the area before going home), and at the end of the credits scene
I'm kinda just...in awe at that thing
I mean, in the concept art stuff, Isle is a transition from real world to Sky
(talking about bottom one)
That's an entity, there's a name for it
What's that indifferent species @lethal stump
Megan!
Megan?
Megabird
Lol

Oh lolol
indifferents are fully dark/corrupt skykids
I'd hug a corrupt/dark skykid
They look like they're made of stone
LOL
lol
Im still trying to reach that isle
Now i know how clothes in washing machines feel like
Anyone got a video?
how far have you gotten ?
Reach the isle???
the one in home?
Yeah
warp ? wdym ?
Its so windy my friend let go holding me
damn
Super windy
There's a....there's an isle in home?
We'll keep trying
How
someday, someone will reach it
Iāve never known about these tricks
With whatever method
oobing with the table
Hip rocket/table glitch next on plan
imagine being close to the island and then getting a reload screen
back then, you were also able to move the table while you were still on it. now you cant lol
you can
Really?!!!
Yeah its possible
i sound old 
I dont have a table but my friend said it works
Iāve seen people do that table warping before island of sanctuary open
Thats why we kinda moved a bit
How?
But they flew away while i kept smaking the tableš š š
Yeahhhh itās so funny
I need to know
just check Butter Hoarderās vidĆ©os on his channel, it explains it
See some memes in yt
Easiest way I can think of is a dual table maneuver. One moves the other, getting both closer
I wanna see his vids
go watch
heās a table master
Wewuwwewuwewu
iām saving up for table rn
I wanna keep my hearts because im saving up for teth's hair (at 90%)
d a m n
So i cant get table rn
im trying to complete vault anyways
lore? 
I have the table
Yes please
So close to completing Samekh
right
lore
Lore went out the window
Sryš
Haha lol
Today I get second to last obj
LORE
Let's gentle put lore back inside
See ya
Donāt know what lore to say
well, that island is where the opening cutscene takes place, weāre trying to get there to see the whole mural
I remember being at wasteland and you know the gate? isnāt the tower one of top of the gate looks a lot like the king
yes, itās all the king
yep it does
Don't we see the whole mural in the starting!???
it's all propaganda
thereās parts of the mural that may or may not be there...
that we see/donāt see
I just realised since i only started looking around the environment
There are alot of king statues in gw...A LOT
Ikr
king propaganda
They're everywhere
But itās confirmly not the King for now
Ye
Yeah
m e c h
Ok
I mean they not King because they just a statue
But its like what the king looks like right
Or as I belive, it's the price in something
The real king still trapped in Eden or what I donāt remember
thatās the kingās likeness
itās the most obvious reference we have to him in-game
yeah
Prince = king
I'm pretty sure that's canon...
ah yes i have a theory on the king being stuck in eden but i'm lazy to type it out 
wait how come
Ouh I thought Prince is the child of King
Yeah I've read it I guess.
Royalty = royalty
I can get behind that
the prince is not confirmed
the king is
Yeah i never seen the prince
and also how come you think the king is in eden? im curious

King died, no prince :c
I thought the Prince is that boy that we hug in orbit
Lol
The king was put in the diamond and it shattered , right?
And the place where we hug that shiny boi is the inside of the diamond the that hug wanting guy is the price/king
that, or weāre the Prince/King
It's like 9, we're all pieces of the king!
i see us as reincarnations, yeah
thatās a possibility too
Yeah since the megabird bought us down to fix the problems with the worlds
Or we dropped down
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A18DF1-WghvmfMqFX6p0RUIaXbAuZ2PWlOKWCNqc_y4/edit i found the link to the theory i made about the king being us/child of light/eden elder/etc. but it's still in the works 
Personally I think we are the prince's prison
prison?
Ye. The prince waits for us when we die because he's in us. We use his light to come back, but he's just kinda stuck there
Yep. And we go and clean up the mess of his mistake repeatedly while he watches.
Oooh, I did come up with something similar to this! Mind if I share a screenshot?
sƻre !
Sure
Tbh in the intro when the elders had dropped down to the clouds there had been a thunder lightning maybe from the diamond being out of control. Thatās when things went out of control and we had to bring back the life.
I thought of it like that
But idk
Dude what if the king sacrificed his son then to be all of us? That's so metal
we donāt know
idk
we donāt even know if the prince exists
anything related to the prince is purely speculation and fan theories
Second thought from last thought I should say that I thought again that Prince is the same person as King
thatās also a possibility
almost anything is a possibility
personally, i believe the prince was crowned king, but thatās my headcanon
the lore currently is intentionally presented as vague so we can gladly burn our brain cells and express our findings how we see em
And then, Sky devs just ruin our countless hours spent theorizing
Hahahahaha thatās so true
morning skiddos
that of works into our theories 
I mean, isn't that like real historians when they find something new? :^)
i mean, it's great that we even get lore at all because we have so little firm substance to work with so it's a blessing to get some sort of confirmation 
something is better than nothing-
A confirmation that is not confirm yetš
exactly
Wonder if the devs ever read the things in here and yoink ideas 
probably, Jae
But it is obviously that they cannot enter this channel
yes, Reika, Ash, and Ktjn join us every now and then
i think one of the staff came in here and said they already established the lore but we just have to wait i guess
they talk and occasionally give us hints/clues
Because probably maybe they will just give us the right theory and then thereās no anymore lore discussion
nah the devs are good at barely spilling the beans
they leave a single bean eachtime
or was it last week? idek what time is anymore
Ouhh really š„ŗ
Stellify dropped in once
Miss the chance
One (1) bean for you -Devs probably
slowly being fed beans by the devs.........
i've never tried irl beans before anyway
Lmaoooo
Then we growing a beanstalk in this channel š
ive seen reika...she called me bricky 
Ouwwwuhhh
My heart....
A lore for sanctuary please
It isnāt done yet
But itās hard to confirming about that season
itās best to wait until the season finishes, honestly
Well it just a new seasonš
I wanna see what happens when you finish finding all the bells before I ask about it lolol
I think it's possible that Sanctuary is just meant to be for fun. Of course people can still come up with theories! But I do remember seeing Ktjn say something about how not all of the seasons/items they do are necessarily connected to the canon lore of the main story in the world of Sky. Some things they just do for fun or because it seemed like something cool to do or something fun for the players to enjoy. So not everything needs to be evaluated so seriously, I guess. although I know this is the lore channel and it's what you guys do, but it seems like not everything will have a canon explanation
So weāll only creating canonhead for fanon for this āfor fun seasonā
there might be parts that are important, so stay alert 
And I mean, thinking of lore theories and such is fun so I think as long as none of the fan theories are taken as gospel, it's good!
This season maybe for calling back the ancient species or new species of Mantas
Or it just for sightseeing coz itās name is sanctuary
So...we can rest for now
It can also can be taken as that the crabs are okay with the mantas and other light creatures other than us
So butterflies can be made by the sky people using light. So are the butterflies man made or from nature?
wait- made ? when was it said butterflies were made by the ancestors ?
the daylight prairie elder does something that looks like that in his cutscene
he takes the fire that your sky kid offered, holds it in his hands and it seemingly becomes a butterfly
Yup
true, but heās an elder, they might not have the same powers as the ancestors and vice versa
and we also see characters « catching » light, which implies they might not make it themselves
He might be an elder but butterflies can be made
I know but the Elder turned the light in to a butterfly. A living thing
It makes me question if the other creatures were made too
And more interesting is that the butterfly seemed like it understood the Elder. When the Elder signaled it to go in the vase it did.
why not just...immediately put the light into power diamonds then ? why do the middleman of catch light then turn it into a living being then kill it ?
What if the light needed a thing to sustain its form
We only get light from either candles or plants
If you think about it it gives light kinda a physical place to be
And maybe the elders were helping the light to survive by making it into a butterfly then to a power diamond ?
But
Itās just a theory
A game theory
a g a m e t h e o r y
Also, there's three streaks here
@kind bobcat 4, youāre the 4th streak. All concept art point to 4 sky kids and even the translation of the story written in the Chinese exhibit says that āthe decedents sacrifice and give the strongest descendent all of their light....to face the kingā
I mean, TGC made English, Japanese and Chinese translations right? @compact olive
So, there might be a chance
Any explanation why we can't use
emote in orbit?
I have noticed that if you can't use your flame,
is also disabled
Can you summoned inner candlem
I need to die again then
Also buterflies might be tools. When dealing with farms, having a species that just kinda takes care of itself can be more useful than one that does exactly as expected. If you need something to slowly release light around your crops, you might prefer a butterfly that flaps around and does whatever so you can focus on other things
I think we're capeless at that moment that's why we can't use that emote
Tho i don't know if that enables after getting wing
On that time my mobile had 3% charge so i finished that as soon as possible..
So, there might be a chance
@prime pasture a chance for what exactly? At work not really able to read everything properly
The descanted thing, in chinese translation you mentioned
Do know that anything from the chinese version of the game is subject to being noncannon for the rest of us
Yes. I have an English transcript of it
is that excerpt from the opening cutscene, or something else ?
is that excerpt from the opening cutscene, or something else ?
@lethal stump is this in reference to something I said?
yes
the descendants sacrifice and give the strongest descendant all of their light to face the king
im wondering where thatās from
Oh yes, itās something else. Itās a transcribing of the back story for the concept art. Let me post the exact quote
07 | STORM
acceptance, wisdom, sacrifice, loss
Descendants learn their meaning of existence from reading ancient paintings in vault. They walk through the storm to meet the king. The storm is fierce and cruel, wearing them down, making them weak. In the end, they decide to sacrifice themselves and give all their inner light to one strongest descendant. The last one standing then faces the prince.
oh yeah, we're not sure if that's really canon anymore or not. It doesn't seem canon
itās
ehhh
like most concept art
this is one where king ā prince
I think prince is evil and king is good
in this one
wh
isnāt it the other way around, usually ?
let me check
cause in the old storm idea, we would go into the king and the prince would wake up, as the « good part » of him
yeah, I got it mixed up
oh yeah, we're not sure if that's really canon anymore or not. It doesn't seem canon
@cold steppe not making a point of considering it canon. The comment I was using it as a reference to was that there was, in concept art, more than 1 descendant / Sky kid, adding to Amioās noticing 3 streaks, and then a delayed 4th streak in the sky that ultimately becomes your Sky kid
ah, cool
Canon or not, Iām glad u translated that
Itās always cool to read concepts
that could also be why there's 3 skykids in the constellation in orbit
it's in the pinned links too
thats....a beta thing btw
But I do hope that MAYBE itās being used for a different meaning in the current story
oh, thats Light Awaits ?
the orbit concept was also really cool. Seems like only one actually made it up there
or survived
In that concept art I believe they were referencing that the king was the outer shell /#mecha of the prince, and that the prince was good. (As @cold steppe just posted in 08 orbit
and the rest ascended as spirits
Thatās actually pretty close to the current story...
And that the king was the embodiment of the princeās āsinsā
this timeline
Which is why he needs light, because heās devoid of it when you āhugā him (take his hand)
are you referring to the concepts or in-game, Oz ?
Iām a bit sad this never happened
āAll spirits fuse together to release the memories of the entire kingdomā
it's kind of interesting that the concept art was far more focused on the sacrifice of others than the current game
the only kind of parallel we have in-game is krill bait
and even then that's kind of iffy
back to the human world, giving them a new life
And after reading the translated concepts, I believe we interpreted the pic wrong before
the current game focuses more on self-sacrifice
We used to think the bird of light was referring to the megabird
Stupid question but I canāt seem to find a pin of the mural under the stone floor in hidden forest. Itās the one that has no special items collectibles in it but has a ton of cave paintings about the boats and the structure ?
I think I have some pics of it
Could anyone be so kind as to post it for me? I canāt get on the game for another 7 hours (at work)
May I use it in my time line? (Also @mortal viper I used one of your screenshots because it was better than mine. Itās on #2 of my time line, can I use it or should I replace it with mine?)
Sure, no problem
@cold steppe wren @lethal stump May I use your screenshots as well?
sure, with credit
sure
I tried to reach that intro cutscene island today
It took 30 minutes but we didn't even get 1 inch closer to the island
i donāt really mind if people use my screenshots
but if you want to use my rune work, thatās when i would like you to ask
some places are windwalled pretty strictly
I'm kind of disappointed that Sanctuary didn't really give too much lore
- sweats in beta *
it's not over yet, of course, but I don't know how much more we'll be given
we don't even get murals this time
oh brick, are the runes on the bells at Sanctuary the same as the other bells in-game?
sad
lƶng
The 1st quest has a mysterious line
but if you want to use my rune work, thatās when i would like you to ask
@lethal stump has anyone gotten good looks at the writing on Vault elderās headdress (I know itās vastly different than the one you get to wear as a Sky kid)
brick has done amazing rune work
aww 
"Perished with time,the spirit watches the ruins with for forgotten hope and promise"
For a second there when loooking at the bottom row of her headdress I thought it was the old Contra Code āup down, up down, right left, right left, A+Bā ....Iām slowly going insane
the dedication

@hushed steeple seems like ash is a major table expert
that or they did it when the table was OP
Why canāt you rocket over the āwind barrierā?
No
I used butter's table Travelling glitch
And I was spinning round and round after some time
aksjshdgf
what other table glitches might be useable ?
or maybe
hear me out
what if we fell under the map and travelled below it ?
using chibi fall or something
(O_O) can you Chibi sink under the ground and by pass the wind barrier that way?
There'll be wind as well
using chibi fall or something
@lethal stump āgreat minds...ā
There's another way ... Try to hug your friend while standing/swimming on water

You'll be in underwater
Why canāt you rocket over the āwind barrierā?
@compact olive rocket only makes you go up š
What amio needs to do is go forward, but the trick is that thereās an enormous wind wall dividing the rock mural and homespace
we could try going over the wind wall tho
No matter how high you go up, the wind barrier will be there
So u canāt fly over it
I know that from experience, I basically touched the stars
And still a wind barrier
mhm
i think windwalls are a global thing, like they choose to add a windwall somewhere and it just adds a wall; they dont have to modify it to fit the environment
oof
sometimes though, thereās cracks
like that valley oob where you slip by the window
maybe we can try and find it
āitā as in, a crack or hole of sorts
@compact olive rocket only makes you go up š
What amio needs to do is go forward, but the trick is that thereās an enormous wind wall dividing the rock mural and homespace
@sly kestrel i was thinking more along the lines of flying to high up you reach a point where there is no wind wall, higher than the wind wall
doesnāt seem like thatās possible, unfortunately
Stupid question... the fox demon looking things on the Hidden forest temple archway? Is that...defined yet?
I know the forest elder was originally supposed to be a fox furry thingie, but... was that left over from
thatās forest momās old concept mask !
Concept or is it in game significant ?
