"Deep call me one more time, I'm gonna lose it."
lmaoo
I hate the crabs more than I hate the krill
Playing as krill... the deadliest game of hide and seek a sKid will ever play.
I hate the crabs more than I hate the krill
@umbral fossil Krebs are for rituals, Dorime
@lethal stump is that your hand writing or a typed font?
the interesting thing that krill are explicitly named dark dragons so it's likely there were light dragons
hand writing
perhaps when the balance is off a light dragon becomes dark
What’s with all of this “imprinting” business? Isn’t imprinting what happened to the baby and the wolf boy from twilight ?
i want to point out imprinting isnt only limited to werewolves and fiction. it is also used in biology.
the interesting thing that krill are explicitly named dark dragons so it's likely there were light dragons
@still sage There were big mantas, maybe they were the counterparts
I can the krill Killer Jumbo Shrimp because otherwise I keep calling them Skrill which are from how to train your dragon
*call
ya i personally hc krills come from mantas
one eye
diamond shaped

"vaguely diamond shaped"
i dont get it why did that manta disappear when the krill attacked but the krill only yeets us and make us chase the light children we dropped while yelling go skykid go
And it's hard to imagine that the krill is the smallest animal when it's the real life size.
but it poofed O.O
we would never see
@still sage I would find that manta and deep call it back to life
@lethal stump I envy your penmanship. I would slice off your hand and attach it to mine were it a reasonably allowable thing for handwriting transferring....and not as violent
Me, slapping life into the manta: "get up, you need to get bonked again for later."

yo if i follow my hc, if krills are mantas who lost light
oh no
yo if i follow my hc, if krills are mantas who lost light
oh no
@sinful anvil * Proceeds to ride Krill *
megabird, getting the manta's soul back into its body in time for the next skykid to come along: Get Up Time To Work
I love the idea of baby krill... I now need a plush of Spot
the tgc shop has manta pins
Leave it to the merch department to do more for lore than game devs 🤣
I'd stab for a krill pin
If I ever got a krill plushie...
or a krill plushie
I'd stare at it for 5 seconds then charge at it with all my might
Naruto run at s krill plush
Wait 5 seconds, then throw it at someone
What did I just walk into
But also I just wanted to drop a picture of the Eden castle
I feel like it could be used for reference or something
pretty 
looking back at 3 krills hc, i had a mental image of prince sitting in his throne stroking one of the krills, 2 of them dawdling near him, while he asks the camera, You called. What’s your business?
when the krills are grown definitely
but he had krill wyrms stuck to his back for about 6 months which was not very dignified
Prince, filming 3 krill wyrms running to him: So see, I was walking here and I met these wyrms, and now they’ve imprinted on me. Look! [wyrms run to him as he walks] Aw man, I’m not ready for kids. (it’s that vid im referring to, yknow the one)
Hahaha
ajahsgsf
Hey if the prince were fallen star won't they take light out of the prince too
it's- it's like I'm their dad or somethin
my version became dark, which is why they imprinted on him
krill wyrm: who are you?
pale king back when he was a wyrm: and who are you?
krill wyrm: i asked u first
pale wyrm: i asked u second
Ah
i cant make sense of that. the idea of a creature influencing a human, not my taste haha
wdym ?
krill influencing prince to be dark is unusual to me
that’s not what happened
Prince IS the darkness.
exactly
he became a creature of darkness when he was cast from orbit
and so when the krill wyrms hatched and saw him, they imprinted on him and latched onto his back cause they thought he was their « mom »
does it hurt tho
it doesn’t hurt a krill, but it would hurt him
krill tusks are sharp and tough bc usually they need to dig into an exoskeleton
Oh, krill topic!
Itty bitty baby krill Blue
Where did your 40 wl go?
I was running around the graveyard, hunting crabs and studying bones
@kind bobcat nowhere, I always use ||The Glitch||
i'm gonna get krilled to go back to 2 wedges for the authentic moff experience
be evil to the kid
he deserves it
Bricky, should you talk about yourself like that?
yes
We all know you are the king, no use pretending otherwise
:3
Anyway! As I said, I was studying the bones in the graveyard when I was not being krilled, and using my 4 years of biology graduation, i believe the vertebrae and ribcage bones are from a quadruped animal with the head of a tortoise or turtle
toitle
Now, we have a professional in our vicinity
oh also I'm back
just took a quiz,
I got a 15! out of 20
Blue do you approve of my pseudo-biology with the krill—
I also study at the graveyard
In another note, thanks to a new friend, I now know the catapults were used to throw kids holding angry crabs over to the enemy lines and bring caos from above with a lot of screaming and angry crab bumps
I study how hard krills hit you when you're charging towards them
XD
man,
I just got to experience the wind barrier around them
Let me edit the video so I san send it here
@lethal stump I still have to read it
I got an average range of
-
in the pain scale
oki
tell me if i can improve, i really wanna design an ecology for sky
well- i know i can improve
just tell me on what
Brick's Book of Sky Creatures.
Brick’s Book of Sky Runes
Brick’s Book of Sky Creatures
Brick’s Book of Sky Architecture
a trilogy
Oohhh
You sure about the Sky Architecture one 
Brick’s Book of Sky Bricks
Bricky: Everything about Sky
there would be a whole chapter for King Propaganda
would be cool if you drew a cross section of skykids and ancestors
I'd like a Bricky's Book of Krills
would be cool if you drew a cross section of skykids and ancestors
wdym ?
when krills got in that psychdelic glitch something tells me their sound gives away they’re half machines
i just think krills have really bad joints 
IDK why but the moment I joined this discussion, I got sucked into the drive to figure out what the world of Sky has gone through
Have you read it yet Blue?
I still have unanswered questions!
The biology?
he became a creature of darkness when he was cast from orbit
and so when the krill wyrms hatched and saw him, they imprinted on him and latched onto his back cause they thought he was their « mom »
@lethal stump I wonder... In your hc did the elders know he turned dark from the begginig or did he pretend he was still Filled-with-light l-Aleph and not Corrupted-to-the-core-Resh?
@compact olive just did
Have you read it yet Blue?
@compact olive I'd take this charge with open arms
so cute
The elders didn’t know. However Lamed (Vault Vault) found out when the krills imprinted on him, but due to their personality didn’t say anything about it until it was too late.
angst 
Did spot smash Isle elder’s face?
nah
Did spot smash Isle elder’s face?
@compact olive Nah, forest mom did
wdym, Mavie ?
isle of dawn elder is kinda crooked, right? with a walking staff and all
Goob...
please elaborate
you could say so, Maviee
Forest mom.
Hammer
Isle elder.
hmm, so... we need to stretch our backs and our arms outwards to fly
also this is how big the krills would be at full length compared to alef
how does he do it? XD
also this is how big the krills would be at full length compared to alef
@lethal stump w o a h
also this is how big the krills would be at full length compared to alef
@lethal stump ...
Krill: 68 ft
Alef: 3’2 ft
Home button wouldn’t even work on that Krill
So basically the king could use a krill as a scarf
@kind bobcat imagine the krill taking aim and about to charge while the king's wearing it
- king gets dragged around *
Home button wouldn’t even work on that Krill
@compact olive No use spamming play dead, we be dead for sure
that’s the height of actual in-game krill, though
skids are about alef’s height at starting height
Oh, that kinda tones it down.
Alef's mask looks heavier than him
he must be one stronk kid
darkstones
the fanfic is coming soon for the lore hcs brick and i share i swear i’m working on it 

ooohh
Oof...
I was at GW just now, and I kinda accidentally activated the catapult while a moff was riding on it
oh god
let's just say that he didn't know about the glitches yet
I'm trying to draw something with the elder color palette
I felt bad, I left the game
This confirms diamonds aren't always related to darkstone 
Ancestors
don’t wanna rain on your parade but...
Diamond shapes on the walls are just part of their culture 
They just really like triangles
The fact that Alef had dark creature pets suggests that he was not unsalvagable even once cast out. He still had it in him to love and care for other beings... He probably just had a problem with Megan for some reason
he treated them like absolute babies
like how we treat dogs and cats
" MOM I'M PLAYING SKY "
He didn't need to wind up how he did, he could have been living harmoniously with the others
And he got yeeted from the heavens because he let megabirb count to zero
megabirb count to zero
Trying to decipher the lore channel is just as difficult as the in game lore.
yes

HES SO TINY

HES US SIZED
Sorry Osirus, we regulars are many layers deep in both nonsense and extrapolation
Krill Wirm, upon seeing Alef: "I'm gonna ride it"
I haven't even gone through all the pinned messages yet
and I'm already puking with information
Not exactly lore, but here's another image to support that alef can still care for others 
Alef: uppon being chosen: I better get some armor
is that fanart or concept art?
THATS ADORABLE
WHO DREW IT
i did
cute!
Not exactly lore, but here's another image to support that alef can still care for others
@kind bobcat "no use getting wet, kreb. we still need you for our rituals."
I LOVE YOUR ART
AWW THANK YOU BRICC
Although me drawing that contradicts my beliefs that Alef IS darkness
should've drawn crab go cronch
nnooOOOO
Is concept Alef's head Darkstone?
Could be 
poor us sized king
Taken from bricc's meme
his head looks too heavy
Corrupt king mask is different than alef mask
Idk if 10 wedges can lift that up
What if it's not a mask? What if it's literally growing?
that’s what i was thinking, Null
alef the darkstone head
When it is smaller, it is easier to feed. This allows it to be blue and shiny. As it gets bigger it gains power, but becomes difficult to feed. If hard times came, it would be baaaaaad for him.

He would also have to start relying on it for things he used to do in other ways - for example, it would become first difficult, then impossible to walk
As he relies on it more, it needs to feed more
wait is this image like canonically drawn by a concept artist?
no thats just Goob being godly
I LOVE IT.....
It also makes me wonder if Aleph found the darkstone... Or chipped pieces off of himself
Maybe he encased it in regular stone to give to the elders so they did not meet his fate
I'm trying to draw something with the elder color palette
probs its bc light kids arent same as ancestors but im still wondering why they stood at that heckin roof at daylight prairies making me waste my winglight
I think the wrong thing got quoted there
ya i mean the pic associated w the quote
@lethal stump , here is my feedback: (part 1)
It is resonable, though there is few artropods (group that includes insects, arachnids and crustaceans such as shrimps and krills) in general that exhibit parental care, specialy in the ocean.
But if there is a thing in Biology that we learn pretty fast is that EVERYTHING HAS AN EXCEPTION. It is the science of life, and life is pretty much a big mess. So yeah, it is possible for the Krills to take care of their youngs, though I believe you will not find a correspondence to this behaviour in Earth krills.
The growing part is correct when talking about arthropods in general, though they are not constantly growing. They only do so when they "shed" their old exoskelleton, which makes their growth rate looks like a never ending ladder when put on a graphic. Right after the shed, they are quite soft and squishy, but it does not take long for it's exoskelleton to harden again, so they grow during this short period.
The soft shells in the larval (wyrm) fase is also ok, but at least in insects, legs are always present (I don't remember about crustaceans though). But if we make a correspondence between krill's legs = insects wings, then they can show up later in life.
As for them all being "girls": being able to lay eggs not necessarely means you are exclusively a female animal. We have animals with both male and female reproductive systems, called hermaphrodites. BUT, since nature is hella weird, we also have females capable of reproducing on their own without the need for a male partner, which is called parthenogenesis. Some species of sharks and lizards are among those with this capability. So you can choose if krills are really all female, with no male around, or if they have both reproductive sistems on them.
@lethal stump part 2
I think the only thing I would change is the part of only laying eggs once in life. They are farly longevous for arthropods (3 years to reach maturity is a long time grabing mommas backs) which usualy implies that they can reproduce more than once in life. So yeah, I would let them have more babies and I would have most of them die because natural selection is evil and cruel.
A correction: In animal life adulthood = sexual maturity.
All of this said, I still have a few questions:
- Do krills go through metamorphosis, aka build a cocoon to stuff themselves in and come out a few weeks later as a beautiful evil butterfly?
- How many eggs do they lay? Do they guard the eggs?
- What do they eat? How they feed the babies?
- Do they have natural predators?
forgive me all for the ginormous texts
I get carried away when talking about biology 
no it’s perfect thank you
@mortal viper krills lay egg?
reading this reminds me i shouldve studied biology tbhh
i remember little me was hungry on those encyclopedias
@mild lark , it's bricky's theory
honestly this is so fascinating
Honestly or
also do krills eat their siblings? i never know
cough its like how we came out, out of nothin*
i mean tbh its so fascinating like how other animal life forms work. i wish i can focus on them
- No. As time goes on and they grow from the wyrm to pup stage their exoskeleton becomes harder and stronger as they shed and grow new ones
- a clutch is between 1–3. Mama krills can’t guard the eggs (she has to hunt for herself), so they’re designed to look like rocks for camouflage and safety, however she will return to the nest to sleep
- Im still working on this, likely mantas. Wyrms might be confined to butterflies until they become large enough to eat mantas. but this is still a wip, i’m working on how they relate to the larger ecosystem
- Probably them turtle things. And/or Ancestors and Elders
come to biology side, we have cookies
i wanna
but i get there might be memorizations 
a bit, but not all
microbiology was my hyperfixation as a child so i don’t feel entirely confused
yay
i tried to mato the text as simple as possible not to cofuse anyone
because weird names os another thing biologists love
you’re also welcome to DM me about this stuff to go more in-depth
would krills eat their siblings? is this a case like “eat other eggs to prove ur the strongest child”?
okok
(dont act surprised haha. someone else hced the same thing to some creatures in hollow knight. also tiger sharks(?) do this too)
I was going to put a question about canibalism but I thought it was too dark
some shaks species do, yes
would krills eat their siblings? is it plausible to hc so?
fishes some times eat their babies as well
We shouldn't look at animal behaviour on human standard tho.. even if it was cannibalism
so it can be hc’d krills eat their siblings
canibalism =/= antropophagy
akhat, shtayim, and spot: trying to devour each other
alef: N O—
and i dont mean in a cannibalizing way … its like “develops teeth as a fetus to eat other eggs before being birthed” sort of thing, so i dont imagine this as “eating your own kin” or cannibalism
WAIT ALEF HAS PETS.
in my HC
and i do imagine the 3 krills being competitive … if krills are solitary species (but the krill graveyard shows they can work together)
canibalism = consuming someone from the same species as your own
antropophagy = a ritualistic event where humans consume other humans with the belief they will aquire the victms abilities/characteristics
@sinful anvil they achieve communism... No? Ok
is krills solitary? sometimes solitary animals can gather on conditions like mating seasons but gw is a wasteland now; civilization is long gone. those krills arent interested in mating & have no reason to seek mutual benefit. soo my guess is krills dont care if they huddle?
and i dont mean in a cannibalizing way … its like “develops teeth as a fetus to eat other eggs before being birthed” sort of thing, so i dont imagine this as “eating your own kin” or cannibalism
@sinful anvil still called canibalism if I am not wrong. Probably has a more fancy name like intrauterine fetal canibalism or wtv
They seem content to float alongside each other. Maybe they’re pack animals
they sure don't act as pack animals
true
imagining a giant pack or swarm of krill is horrifying, thank you
imagining an alpha krill
your welcome
if they did, instead of being krilled by one krill, we would have all four attacking us
Battlefield
But when we open the gate at battlefield they all rushed together?
‘alpha’
aint a thing, chief
if you’re referring to the study done on wolves, it was disproven by the dude who wrote it
they are turning their heads as they rush tho seems like no hurry
they are rushing for the prize
@mortal viper oh no
you are the prize
what if krills are territorial, but in a communal way? if a krill has its own place it would be ticked at anyone invading it, but if a group of krills are “friends” together they are happy with sharing territories but reject outsider krills
o
so like a really loose pack or something?
what if krills are territorial, but in a communal way? if a krill has its own place it would be ticked at anyone invading it, but if a group of krills are “friends” together they are happy with sharing territories but reject outsider krills
could be why they keep to « routes »
that’s their hunting grounds
@sinful anvil, I don't think they share routes in graveyard
no their routes dont overlap, according to the map on wiki
their spotlights do occasionally
but they almost have no borders, i can see those guys bumping
or mb bc i dont see any boundaries, i see graveyard as a whole
in battlefield they are actively hunting, but in all the other places they show up (broken temple, graveyard and ark) they are just patrolling
I do think that is for gameplay stuff
come to think of it, what if those krills patrolling are actually guarding it as a territory, and the reason they charge at us is we’re intruders
but that doesnt explain why they went away after losing wl
in battlefield they are actively hunting, but in all the other places they show up (broken temple, graveyard and ark) they are just patrolling
this is why i think the three in battlefield are domesticated or something. compared to the casual patrolling of the others, they are actively looking for a target which they might’ve been trained to catch
I think all os them were trained or programed to patrol and attack
14 krill pets
?
war beasts
no i think they raced straight to the source. dumby krills looking for light
they are moths
Wait a minute.. didn't krill can withstand the storm on eden? If so why krill don't go over the cloud and invade other realms?
they could, but i think there's a reason why krills are fixated on specific areas
maybe krill need a certain amount of darkness in the environment to thrive
for dead old dad
Imagine krill flying around in prairie bruh
Boi i wish TGC make a horror game.. they really good at making people scared on Sky where everything supposed to be happy..
if prairie = childhood & krill = hardship, then the implication of krill in prairie is def very very plausible
a horror game would be cool but i think it'd be hard since horror games usually include elements of violence, and tgc games don't encourage you to be violent
- glances at old elder and creature designs *
you don’t need violence to be scary
Maybe a new season like Season of horror?
true, but the slow buildup of dread is major in good horror games, i think tgc could pull that off and have the lose cutscene be very ambiguous for a potential horror game
a shocking or grueling hardship in the game that scares people does not make it horror. thats life. tgc surely knows how to make something carthartic tho.
And ofc the seasonal place is going to be a dark forest w
yes, with the perfect dose of emotion tgc can
i think we’re getting off lore
what if the storm spread throughout the realms and brought along krills everywhere for a final season/"ending" of cotl that would carry on to the next chapter
i just wondered why are cotls smaller than us
That would be fun actually
me looking at chibi: thats small
me looking wl: damn i still have to lower my head at u?
the eden diamond hasn't stopped farting exploding
that's still unresolved
Finally, the video
krills just smell really bad
Krill’s portable windwall
this is why i dislike krills
krill smell like rotten fish
respecting krill's personal space
social distancing yall, dont know what kind of darkness germs krill carry
That’s why we burn it
well, tell that to them, running me over every chance they get
Burn it with F I R E

Can krill physically walk tho? I really wonder
The legs are too skinny and spread out
legs seem kinda flimsy ngl, id say probably not
i think they're like sharks, if they stop flying they die
I did not manage to take a pic because I was to busy running for my life, but I triggered a krill on that same spot and his head was like, two kids away from my face. That was scary as hell
And probs doesn’t have enough time exercising their legs to hold of their ton of weight
Yay.. so that's a no
Thank god imagine a walking krill
(Excuse the terrible grammar pls, it’s been a long day)
if we're taking hints from irl krill i think that the legs are used for steering in the air, not actually walking
they filter the air for light
i think they're like sharks, if they stop flying they die
@gray bridge they stop flying after krilling someone, but unfortunately, they don’t drop dead
how the do they fly
Same way mantas do
magic
@sinful anvil magic
Magic
ooooo i've never seen a krill stop actually, then again it's been a while since i got krilled
darkness magic 
They eat two darkstones a day 
no they glide over to you to bump you in the head, so that technically counts as flying. then they go back minding their business
Krill will stop when they lost sight of their target tho
oh yeah
ooooo i've never seen a krill stop actually, then again it's been a while since i got krilled
@gray bridge lucky you I have that recorded on video
they just stood upright. reminds me of meerkats lmao
let me just crop it again
i'm on data rn, i'll watch it later 
ok
Krill will stop when they lost sight of their target tho
@mild lark and also when they are preparing to krill you
I stared into the red eye of death today
so close I can still feel it burn me with hate and hunger


when you get the red light: (chuckles) i'm in danger
Krill be like : finally some good freaking food
when i see a krill: helphelphelp im scared
when a krill sees me: … this is fine just let me die and lose light whatever
when a krill attacks me: helphelphelp
(anyway i lowkey want more alef & krill hcs)
i'm seriously doubting the blue and red lights of krill are natural
@sinful anvil oh im working on them
It's b i o l u m i n e s c e n c e
let's play: game mechanics or lore??
dumb question: can krill eat dark plants? i imagine itd be a last resort tho
can i dm you, palechild ?
funny thing is they dont eat us. come to think of it being krilled isnt the worst thing
yes u can dm
thats why i labeled it as dumb question ahaha
Krill chilling on the background after krilling my friend
maybe they are like cheetahs and have to cool down after attacking
@sinful anvil come to think of it.. where did they get their energy source for flying non stop everyday
eating us probably
hey. say the theory that we are alef reincarnated is true, what if those elders that snatch our light or treat us not seriously do so bc they dont like us?
teth is like “give it to me, stupid prince”
^ lmao i tried to relieve one
that one doesnt do anything, but its satisfying to burn. please direct future questions to #questions-and-help
@nimble siren but they don't suck our wl right?
They take it and spit it
our wl isnt good enough for them, gordon ramsay krills
Or maybe we just loose them because of the impact. Like we loose wedges when hitting walls. They basically blow us out of light and the impact tosses 4 wl straight out of our chest
Ooo yeah that could be possible
that makes a lot of sense actually
then why do they attack us? because programming?
To give hugs
yeah that makes sense, krills must be really so speedy that they knock you down that hard
which strengthens the theory that they are guarding/patrolling the area and just hate intruders
So they get energy from eating mantas only? I don't think there alot of mantas on gw
They filter light from air
From the ark murals, it looks like there were far more mantas there at one point
Really?
There’s a lot of mantas in the cave murals
If we are honest, aside from the krill attacking the manta, we don’t actually see any animal feeding
Maybe they just chill their way through existence
Also that’s assuming that the krill was eating the manta
No food required
They survive on spite alone
are we sure alef isn’t a krill ?
Mantas are literally made of light. The krill attack might just have dissipated them
maybe the krill ate all the mantas, makes them more desperate and causing them to answer any call, which is why they all go hunting when u activate the battlefield krill button
i think krills just attack any being that has light
@nimble siren tho I do wonder why they don't invade other realm for food if they were that desperate..
maybe they need a certan amount of darkness to survive
maybe its just for the aesthetic but i do think that krills only living in dark areas is something that shouldnt be overlooked. do they pollute the land? require darkness?
Maybe krill do live in other areas, but when they do their form is different?
are we sure alef isn’t a krill ?
Alef is secretly three krill wyrms stacked on top of eachother
Sort of like an environmental adaptation
They dont produce harmful gasess
My theory: krills don’t feed. They are guard dogs of the wasteland, sent there by the king to hunt down the few survivors of the rebellion and that stayed there after Eden went kabum. Since they did not received any new orders, they follow what they were ordered before: stay there, patrol the area, don’t let people through and kill on sight
Problem is, kids can’t really die. We just loose light with an impact that to ancestors would have brought immediate death (goodbye sternum and ribcages! Hart goes bum alongside lungs and liver. You pretty much organ juice after being krilled)
they do leave krill debris in the air
Krill are just organic guardians.
that makes a lot of sense bluespirit
i like that theory Blue
Yeah that makes sense
i do wonder what spirits looked like before they were... spirits
I've been drawing for a while with the air conditioner on
And my fingers feel like they're frozen
howdy
I just came to ask a question
This chat is so chill
Hi amio!
Clouds do move in sky world?
This chat is so chill
@runic shell it comes with angst, burnt braincells and insomnia
occasional big brain moments too
Haha lol I like it here
I thought those don't....
sort of?? they kinda vibe in place and dont move a lot, not sure abt the ones in the sky (if there are any?? ironic that i dont pay attention to the sky in a game called sky)
Watching those holes in wasteland
The clouds on the ground move
They move around in some realms and just sorta wiggle in place in others
The death blanket over wasteland does not
the only time its moving is when you drop into wasteland
I'm making a theory on those holes
Soon it'll be ready
And I'll share here

Just wondering, has anyone ever been to that little island where the boats are going??
Wind wall does not let me go there
I tried
i can feel the chaotic washing machine energy in that pic
2 time game crashed.... spinning like hell
someone the skids into a washing machine
We have a catagory three skid
the wasteland whirlpool cloud is held together by skykids doing this
I feel like the cloud death blanket in wasteland has a resemblance to the ‘scorched’ sky in the matrix (idk I just rewatched the movie), maybe some of the sky ppl wanted to cloud the sky in the hopes that it would drive away their attackers but then the attackers just worked around it and learned to attack in the dark by sending kills <— idk if this is already a theory tho
But in that case idk why the entirety of sky isn’t/wasn’t clouded
Maybe it’s wearing off, explaining the holes?
i mean to be fair its the only location with a huge battlefield
I think it is the result of pollution from diamond production mixed with king deathbeaming wasteland to ashes
its been a while since ive looked up in the battlefield but are there holes in the clouds there?
feel like it was used in a way chemical weapons were used during wars. very effective, but hurt everybody involved and almost always got out of control
its been a while since ive looked up in the battlefield but are there holes in the clouds there?
@brave parcel no
Thank you
The holes are krill entry points
I do wonder.. when krill is charging at you.. it hits us so hard that it make us loose our wl.. but how hard is it? Like I literally go full speed and hit a wall ... And I have half of my wing power left. the speed of krill charging at you isnt the one that do the damage. Maybe because of how heavy krill is? I don't know.. it just a theory.. a game theo-
time to do krill physics
weight and velocity.
Hard enough to kill someone
Is it possible for them to somehow hit twice with one charge?
the darkness would certainly help, instant poisoning maybe? thats a bit of a stretch tho haha
you have some heavy krill hitting you at a super fast speed
And turn their organs into a tasty bloody soup
Wassup lore chat, what’s the current topic
yum
krills can move through the ground and through walls iirc, so it might be their speed and the strength of the force/windwall that knocks you down
Krills
krill physics i think
why krill make u lose light but dont eat the light
How hard krill will hit you@sturdy condor
is it canon that krills can go through things, or is that just game mechs ?
i think its game mechs??
... let's have another round of game mechanics vs lore
Game mechs
Ive been thinking that the reason why there's a blanket of clouds in wasteland is because we are just at the lowest part of the world.. prairie and the other realms are on a higher place..? Idk if I'm just stating the obvious
crack theory: krill hunt for sport and are SUPER bored, thats why they respond to the battlefield krill button
"owo? who's this?"
@half ridge there
Ooohh thank you!
@mild lark your profile pic is... mildly, just slightly, a tiny bit disturbing XD
@runic shell why it just smiling at you :)
Isn’t there a map of Sky somewhere as a whole?
somewheres in here
At the pins@sturdy condor
I remember seeing it somewhere
Maybe the Krill take out your lights because they're trying to eat it
Ah ty
But they ignore the wl that goes out of you 🤔
krill knock the lights out of you but the wl is too small to pick up before it breaks :(
Gameplay mechanics I guess, can't have a Krill trying to take tiny pieces out of you
I don't think krill want some WL.. they trying to eliminate you because you're a intruder
Imagine if we do get bits out whenever we get krilled 
they go in for the k(r)ill.
The Home welcome message sometimes says Dark Dragons (aka beloved Krill) are hungry for light
Also that one poor manta that gets obliterated at the Wasteland
Pretty sure they are used to it after an entire year of being beat up
slightly off topic but what happened to the birds in the beginning of wl? you see them when you jump in but where do they go after?
They dissolve into the clouds
where are they going?
Eden prob, there's birds going into a pipe
Light to light, cloud to cloud
Yeah
Maybe WL are the wrong form of light for krills. They can eat raw light that comes out of us, and could say, grase on the light of a butterfly (the way we do), but they don't know how to consume the big bois
To tha tuuuuuuube 
Also what if all those birds are just the Isle Elder's birdies guiding you
Grandpa wants you to have safe travels
From cloud thy came, to cloud thy shall return
Via a fun birdy log flume ride 
Maybe WL are the wrong form of light for krills. They can eat raw light that comes out of us, and could say, grase on the light of a butterfly (the way we do), but they don't know how to consume the big bois
@short owl they are babies they don't know how to chew yet
gramps still loves us, even four realms away 
Oh god what if the Krill we see are just juveniles 
i do not like the idea that the krill we know are babies
i dont like it either
Me too
I love it
Then why haven't we seen any adults
Perhaps krill don’t grow, they only mature?
(in the best way possible, krill are scary)
"Mom said it's my turn in tormenting the skykid"
MAYBE THE RED ROCKS IN EDEN ARE ADULT KRILLS
actually im interested in seeing potential grown krill
Huge krills don't prey for small light being do they...
Raining furious solid red light upon the tiny children
CRACK THEORY: krill are teenage whales in edgy phase
they should be in forest too then
Are crabs the only creature in Sky who can't fly?
they are hiding underground
They really like to stay at their parents skeleton if that the case..
Is that why they attack people who can?
other than fish yes
I mean, technically yeah
Crabs cannot be catapulted
Carry them high up and drop
Poor crabs
Although, seeing a crab flying at you from a cloud would be pretty terrifying
Crab bombardment over enemy lines
ATAAAACK
Not to mention crab was getting barbecued on graveyard :(
HUGE crabs
food is food
Those poor krebs
wait if we are skykids, where are the skyadults? no adult supervision?
Nah we don't need 'em
And where are the Skygrandparents
Megan is mom
Megabird can't smite us if we run fast enough
In another note, thanks to a new friend, I now know the catapults were used to throw kids holding angry crabs over to the enemy lines and bring caos from above with a lot of screaming and angry crab bumps
Picture this now
I'd say that megan should burn but honestly... Sky makes that not work.
Megan should stand in the rain
skykids: are eternally children in mind and body
elders: how is this society not in ruin
... SOCIETY IS IN RUIN
oh wait
WE'RE CLEANING IT UP
GSGDGSGAGGAGAHAHAHAHA
you cant ruin something already in ruin
@mortal viper hmm don't you think they can just deep call and make them flips?
YALL DIDNT LET ME FINISH
Ahahahahah
HAHAHAHAHHAHGSAHGSGA
alef: is eternally a child in mind and body
elders: ah, that’s why society is in ruins
its like trying to rinse off a submarine
@mild lark wdym?
Wait what-
Alef: Can't escape the feeding of dark crystals
Megan: No harm could possibly come from abandoning this child
@mortal viper nvm I figured it out
Alef is smol bby
Who’s... alef? ...and Megan?
Alef is king
Megan idk
alef is the king and megan is megabird
Megan is the megabird. We see them after the end credits.
alef is prince, megan is megabird
alef is the prince/not corrupted king, megan is megabird
Ah ok
Ahhh ok ok
@short owl what is this theory now?
alef is the bratty cousin who wants everything but instead is in charge of a kingdom
is valley covered in sand or snow? 
Alef: I guess I'll try to take care of people down here
Elders: use darkstone to help
Alef: becomes unstable
Both
alef is if you gave a magpie control of an entire kingdom
Glass shards
Blue, the theory is that Aleph's crystal head is actually darkstone. The king is what happened when the darkstone continued to grow
how did alef even come into power????
alef is if you gave a magpie control of an entire kingdom
@lethal stump which is why kids = crows im my hc
we don’t know, that’s for you to figure out
screamed i am the king really loudly until everyone agreed
personally, in Lucifer theory, he was the one who stole the light and brought it down to the ancestors and thus they worshipped him as some kind of saviour
deception?
@short owl tnks. Darkstone is the thing people use to make power diamonds?
The darkstone feeds off Aleph's energy which allows Aleph to use a ton of power, but uh... having something feed off your energy and grow beyond you is actually super bad and dangerous, so Aleph wound up being in a lot of pain as the stones grew too big and powerful, and he had to increasingly rely on the stones for even simple tasks
which means more pain
like prometheus or something except alef has no braincells
alef has 1 braincell and he split it among his pet krills
alef has spoiled brat braincells and shiny hunting braincells and that’s it
omg i havent been in this chat for a month is alef the king?
and krill braincells
Yep
yup the prince/uncorrupted king
yes, alef is the prince. technically the name is advanced fanon tho
Aleph has 3 braincells: his pet krill
resh is the name of the corrupted king
This lead to him becoming agressive in the orriginal storyline, and why saving him is important. Giving him the energy he needs to have the darkstone not consume him allows him to finally think hard enough to escape what he's going through and save the people he hurt before they perish. He then goes ahead and gets a bird because after everything he be tired
alef: it’s not a phase mom, my name is resh
gonna cry i can never leave this chat again
Gets a... bird? What?
ill try to backread later
good luck 
the only reason i caught up was because of brick ngl
e h e
What if there were children of darkness
ground: adults of darkness
Krill fetuses 👀
i think that was a concept art
We'd be able to ride krills
ground: adults of darkness
@nimble siren earthbenders
I think in the original beta of the game, you started of as a child of darkness
ground: adults of darkness
@nimble siren reality, you mean
reality is often disappointing
but reality also gave us sky
Hmm
tbh... I think we still are made of darkness
aren't we technically neutral?
I made fan art thing of it
We have light, specifically a light that we cary in us and use, and is actually very very important to us, but our limbs and heads are all dark
I’ll put it in da art in a few mins
We are walking honking candles
Wax is a neutral material so it's useful for areas where light and dark need to meet.
wax freezes and cracks in the dark but melts in the light
Off topic, but are new players known as moths? Or...?
imagine if wax irl floated above candle flames in little balls
Yes
also yes
Ok 🙂 thx
is there a skybot command for that?
I bet what is a moth still works here
A "moth" is a new player. They have brown wings, they flap around uncontrollably, and they are drawn to flame!
Ahh ok ok lmao now I get it
they also bonk into walls alot lol
imagine if wax irl floated above candle flames in little balls
@hollow orbit in portuguese, the floating things are called light fragments. I don’t know if it stands for all other lenguages.
they’re officially called pieces of light here
Oh, ok then
i just tend to call them wax
But we get them from candles and turn them into candles so people call them wax
yup
part of me wonders if the only reason they aren’t officially called wax is due to the aesthetic, or maybe it’s a dark dragon/krill situation
So it is burning wax
Possibly aesthetics
Well, it is almost 1 am here. Have to sneep. See you all tomorrow!
gn!
gn blue !
Lol it’s getting pretty late here too, imma go sleep as well
gn!!
Bye guys!
What if krill safe just sky children corrupted by darkness
I think one of the twins died in war
coughs @hollow orbit
Which one stands on the right?
uhhh kakashi hair
Spiky? Or hill?
spike
Then he died in war then I think...
Which if I remember right from last night when we talked about oz’s theory and the mention of there only being 6 elders when 7 appeared, it would make sense
the twins count as one elder
coughs @hollow orbit
@lethal stump![]()
![]()

the twins count as one elder
@lethal stump yee this supports that too
yeet
the devs said it after all
Two halves of one whole
What if our character forgets their past life everytime we are reborn after Eden
And so they continue doing this journey
Forever
That's sad tho
Well it’s not sad if they like the journey haha
It explains why they keep doing the same journey over and over
Just like in the game journey
Not if they don’t remember
Yeah yeah that make sense
They don’t know how many times they’ve died 😳
Or how many time they got krilled
Lol the krill
What if the sky child just said no to rebirth and stayed in the orbit
Wait is that mean they forgot their friends too
Yeah
Ooo
It would be kinda creepy haha
In that voice
hey, this is a family friendly server. that’s not exactly pg, Smiley
Nah it’d be * LOUD DRAGING NOISE OF CHAIR ACROSS TILE FLOOR*
Im sorry
i suggest taking that comment down before mods do
Ok gucci

Geez now I can only imagine hearing someone sparing the sound of a dragged chair
Oof
Spamming *
It’s almost as bad as the mosquito voice or whatever it actually is
kshfhdjsjsjdjjdjd
krill would be like “sksksksksk and I oop”
Hey guys I just noticed something in wasteland
What
oh
The entrance to the next level is thru a broken part of a wall
Yeah it is
Oh that’s really cool
Wastelands area is a barrack, and its elder a warrior, so something broke down their walls to enter
The last level happens to have 3 to 4 krill when you gonna leace
More like a defense for the vault
They must be remnants of the battle/siege
More like a defense for the vault
@mild lark
Yea its quite possible
How've e I have a few questions on all of this
Wanna hear?
Yeah
Are you new to lore?
Oof
I just enjoy in giving close related theoris that makes sense and discuss em
Dark plant really don't like bright places.. but that was disproven on daylight prairie itself on the temple.
Exactly
Thing is those are dark plants, they grow everywhere
I have a theory that the reason why valley of triumph and Isle of dawn can't be infected is because there is light and its void of having and base for life
If you interested in lore.. I suggest you check the pins
There alot of interesting stuff in there. But nothing is canon.
Valley is rock and ice not forgetting light, plants and creatures of the dark can't spawn there
Isle of dawn has light and is the furthest from Eden so probably has no 8nterest in going that far,
I was wondering, since we're the descendants (hybrids). We've never seen anyone in game thats our size [the indifferent]. so i was thinking if maybe we're the prince's child
Because he's the only person who looked like our size
😳
Where did u get that
One of the concepts i think? Its been a while heheh.
Maybe
Or were the incarnation of him
All of us as a collective as incarnation of the prince, everyone trying to get to eden, to save the kingdom, to save the fallen
We are an imprint of the children of light, thats what tgc called us, but wiki just shortened it to the clidren of the light
So basically we're the imprint of the connected?
We're a soul of the connected jumping bodies to save others?
Mhm
We're basically fancy clay pots that can carry light to save the others
But like. Who mixed the connected with the indifferent
When we're in the star area to receive the ascended candles, we look like the connected, when we fall back to sky, we're normal
I wonder if anyone has ever tried to go directly to eden itself with all the wings and ignore the fallen Skids
I did
It’s what 150 max?
I only went with a hundred plus
Did you make it
It stops you with a big wall of flying rock, like it gets harder to a point that moving is pointless
Hm
It sometimes faces your character backwards
When ur pushing ahead
What a megabird?
Concept that transports you to the heavens
But I've never seen it
( it kind circles the world like the fox does in Fire Fox)
We fly on our own to the heavens
It was just a concept
I see so it's our jorgmugunder
Megabird is basically the creature (god) that rebirths you and the whole Sky creatures life cycle pass thru it
You can see megabird in the end of the credits
It's so big and made of light. So its basically everywhere
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen those
Oh you mean that cluster lines of lite at the end is the mega bird where its all like one flame?!
In the end credits, yeah. I think someone posted it here before
I just realised something
Wut
In wasteland, the forgotten ark, there is an inscription like waves 9f light, I thought it was the norther lights, but it could be the megabird
When we're in the star area to receive the ascended candles, we look like the connected, when we fall back to sky, we're normal
@wispy canopy i feel like that makes sense because when you go to heaven or rebirth you wouldn't go with your physical body, so basically your connected body will go up but your physical (the indifferent body) will stay
In wasteland, the forgotten ark, there is an inscription like waves 9f light, I thought it was the norther lights, but it could be the megabird
@wispy canopy ooo u got a pic?
Is it the ones on the ark
Goin there now bud to show
👌
Brick posted a collage of pictures from the ark murals earlier
Is it this one? (I didn't take pics of the other side of the ark)
I’m pretty sure that’s just like a falling star
Or if following the theory of light seekers, that’s a fallen orb of light
My theory is they mined the megabirds embers there (if u follow the concept life-stage of megabird)
Imma head to bed it’s getting late/ early
Night
@ me when you find the pic infinity king. Imma play sky
Here it is
I'm back
@tender dune hey bud I'm back
Who are the people with the umbrellas
Do u know who
I haven't been there for it but people think it's Season of Lightseekers spirits
would definitely make sense, can even see the one with the wide hat
yeah thats it! the enchantment season is definitely connected with the lightseekers season
because they seek the li- ill see myself out now
Hahahha
Hey um, I've stumbled upon these recently and
Any ideas/clues?
Maybe an Easter egg? 👀
Literal Easter eggs, no apparent lore purpose
they're literal easter eggs yea 
used to have a purpose apparently but its no more
its a shame because the eggs are so pretty
and have a similar color and pattern to the blue prairie towers at BIRD nest
thats my personal headcanon that has nothing to do with actual lore though haha
Cool cool
Hm, idk of I can ask this here, but do you guys know if there's a fly limit?
My friends and I table glitched in home space for over an hour simply up and haven't reached the top..
The fall down took AT LEAST 3 minutes at max velocity
Ok, ty
@tender dune hey bud I'm back
@wispy canopy heyo sry im late
I dont think those are umbrellas
They look more like pickaxes
Nah its cool bud
They do
But that doesn't make sense why they would hold it that way and bring it to a celebration
The whole picture from left to right shows basically the summary of what happened to the ppl in ark
I posted it before here
Theres a umbrella in the game from a spirit, from season Al or travelling
The whole picture from left to right shows basically the summary of what happened to the ppl in ark
@tender dune
Yea the thing is I don't know what the symbols stand for
This one
Then they got struck by lightning and fell there (hence forgotten ark)
Yea, I discussed this with a grp here last night

ö
Do u guys believe there is a light krill
If so
I think the body of that krill is in hidden forest
This krill crash landed in a house
that's a whale
Don't forget babies exist.
could be just the skull
I got questions about this bit
Definetly looks like the spinning bits everywhere else in the citadel, but of course... not moving.
But the bird is the most confusing thing. When you walk on it, it seems to be made of snow, and bigger than the usual.
I've heard talk if the megabird... maybe a tribute to it? But the snow is so held together...
(Pls tag me if responding I get so lost)
Can I see how darkstone look like?
i think power diamonds/basically anything that can hold light would be made out of darkstone
and also im pretty sure the crystals in eden are volatile darkstone/power diamond shards if you go with the eden diamond theory
That makes sense
excuse the fact that i have to screenshot these lol but here are some more instances @mild lark
tom zhao's concept art!
not everything made it to the final game but most of it holds up with the current lore and setting
So it just the stone on eden?@hybrid void
that's just a possibility, but the stone in the images is definitely darkstone
Alright thank you
no problem :D
Is the dark stone the red stone?
@azure onyx that's from beta for an old quest, sadly not lore related :^(
Aw
@wispy canopy darkstone from concept art was made differently but i guess you could say they're of a similar concept to the power diamonds we have for the game's current version
if you're talking about the red stones in eden from the eden diamond, i think you can call it dark stone since general consensus here (iirc, correct me if i'm wrong) is that power diamond is equal/similar to darkstone and the eden diamond is basically a large power diamond
Why did the power diamond on eden is shooting beam?
i gotta ask, do the valley twins share the same name
Maybe
In concept art, no
In some concept art, they were identified as one being male and the other female. As a note, concept art may or may not be canon
We don’t know if their names and distinctions are still true
:O
i gotta ask, do the valley twins share the same name
@mighty glacier they're called samekh
so yeh they do share a name
but the concept is old and the names arent official
I thought they had different names
wasnt it samekh? or did i confuse the elders again..
that is going to be so confusing for each other and for fanfic writers 
Isle: Daleth (ד)
Prairie: Aylin (ע)
Forest: Teth (ט)
Valley: Samekh (ס)
Wasteland: Tsadi (צ)
Vault: Lamed (ל)
Prince/Not Corrupt King: Alef (א)
Corrupt King: Resh (ר)
^from brick
Lemme go look real quick. I may have mixed up concept arts. I know there was one where one was male and one was female
yeah i think they did mention that one is female and one is male, but both share one name
It was probably marked Samekh (male) and Samekh (female) in hindsight
Let’s see if I can find it
probs lol
so much to go through
i havent touched the pins lol
Haven’t yet found the picture I was looking for but thought this was interesting
It’s a post from Nagati with a concept art picture with a caption and Hebrew names after
From this, I wonder if the names are the names of the realms and not the elders (or the names of both)
oh yeh, brick sent that before too (i dunno how to discord link like u do 😅 )
Press on the message then the menu pops up and select copy message link
hmm for me i believe its the elders name because it does resemble what they do and their theme
Interesting that prosperity has two elders that are one
If you’re interested in the meanings:
Dalet(h): a door, a path, a way of life, movement (into or out of)
Ayin: the eye, look, appearance, to see, understand, experience, to be seen, a fountain
Tet(h): a snake, to surround, to twist, a twisting or a coiling
Samech/Samekh: a prop, to support, prop, aid, assist, a slow twisting or turning aside (like a propped up plant)
Tsadhe/Tsadeh/Tsadi: a fish hook, to pull toward, something inescapable, desire, trouble, a harvest, righteous, to hunt
Lamed(h): a staff, cattle goad, rod, to control, prod, urge forward, go toward or forward, teach, learn, tongue
Alef/Aleph: ox, bull, gentle, tame, the leader, strength, what is first, Adonai, thousand, teach
Resh/Reysh: a head, a person, what is the most highest, most important, chief

Huh, I just noticed the king's design is used as pillars at the very end of gw
is king propaganda
There is no escape
Gah why are the other images in the trillogy hard to find
This is what I wanted to respond with
Hey Lore fam.... ‘did I miss anything good?
?
hey now thats interesting
