[tender dune]

[golden cave]

Coz in concept there is romanticism

I thought they are couple

[open hill]

oh

[sweet dirge]

@tender dune

[tender dune]

[golden cave]

In second thought*

[tender dune]

they are one

[gray bridge]

huh-

[tender dune]

if you notice

[sweet dirge]

Did the people of sky have battles for entertainment

[tender dune]

they have 1 eye

not 2

so together they make one

[gray bridge]

that might just be their mask tho

[golden cave]

Like pharsa and verri

[tender dune]

even at the temple both twins make 1 whole statue

they dont make 2 different statues

[golden cave]

Hahaha MLBB

[tender dune]

my theory to that is they needed to compensate for yeeting isle elder off the leadership

[compact olive]

Explain, have image for half statues?

[golden cave]

??

Whyy@tender dune

[tender dune]

Explain, have image for half statues?
@compact olive no..

let me look

[sweet dirge]

It's at the temple

[compact olive]

You mean the 2 triangles ?

[sweet dirge]

[hushed steeple]

This one?

[tender dune]

i mean the statue of the elder, where u pray (the one with yummy candles)

[sweet dirge]

Yes yes

[tender dune]

yes that

[sweet dirge]

Yummy candles lmao

[tender dune]

they make 1 person

[compact olive]

Yeah that..2 triangles

[tender dune]

they dont look like 2 different ppl

[golden cave]

They should be one person but they are separated in two body?
Like that?

[tender dune]

but ginko they be twinss

[compact olive]

They do call it the “valley elder” and not elders

[golden cave]

To put one in sliding and one more for flying race

Or one for flying citizens and one more for non flying citizens

[sweet dirge]

I remember someone here saying one elder was more desired than the other one

[golden cave]

Or they are controlled by one force??!!!

[tender dune]

Or one for flying citizens and one more for non flying citizens
actuallyyy i was thinking of something

[compact olive]

But odette, I was to,d devs confirmed Ancestors couldn’t fly

[tender dune]

the races arent supposed to be races

they became races after the snowpile

[sweet dirge]

They're highways right?

[tender dune]

yeah

[compact olive]

Giant hockey games

[sweet dirge]

For böæts

[tender dune]

metropolis/highway that leads all the way to the arena

[golden cave]

I didn’t mean that she or he should fly...just to watch or to judge or to take care of it...

[tender dune]

🏒

xD

[sweet dirge]

:O

[golden cave]

[compact olive]

🎳

[golden cave]

[tender dune]

if u notice at the flying race, when the door opens you can see the same structure as the ski race (the statues with the horn), which shows that the place wasnt covered in clouds

[golden cave]

So??

[compact olive]

Female statues

[tender dune]

dont have pics cuz i got competitve and forgot to take a pic

[golden cave]

It’s look like another place like isle?

[tender dune]

more like a city

[golden cave]

Ouh

[tender dune]

but since there are no ppl = no care and cleanup for the city = snow will pile up = we got a race now :3

yippee

[sweet dirge]

Wait so there was a time when there weren't clouds

[tender dune]

ye

in valley flying race i mean

[golden cave]

[sweet dirge]

[compact olive]

If you look at the intro mural, the kingdom gets swallowed up in clouds

[tender dune]

i finished farming valley to i wont go back there, gotta study mantas and abuse the peaceful crab

[sweet dirge]

[golden cave]

Or maybe that valley at first must be built on the clouds not around the clouds...

[compact olive]

And it’s sinking?

[golden cave]

Yeah after that all incident that shred all the Sky kingdom...

Everyone missing

But to where?????

[tender dune]

ded

[golden cave]

Hmmmm

Poor citizens

[compact olive]

The ancestors? Loooong dead

[sweet dirge]

I wonder why there's only a handful of spirits

[tender dune]

i guess to show us more of the story

[sinful anvil]

Giant hockey games
all hail Canada

[compact olive]

Some theories say there’s only a handful of spirits because they were chosen to teach the sKids

[tender dune]

i mean, if they gave us a random spirit doing nothing then we wont learn what happened in the game 😂

[golden cave]

They bring the most effective emotions in their life??
Maybe?@sweet dirge

[sweet dirge]

Yes but if there was a whole civilization shouldn't we be living through thousands of memories

[sinful anvil]

how are they chosen for something that happens only bc ... the prince basically went rogue

[golden cave]

Or mostly great moment in their life?

[sweet dirge]

Some theories say there’s only a handful of spirits because they were chosen to teach the sKids
Interesting

[compact olive]

It’s not my theory Pale. I can’t really give it credence

[golden cave]

Just like animes

[sinful anvil]

i hc bc these are only ancestor spirits. i tend to take things literally but they may be ancestors of citizens

[golden cave]

@sinful anvil ancestors of citizens...??

Hmmm tooooo looooongg agoo

[compact olive]

There are no ancestor spirits passed the gates of Eden

[sinful anvil]

like, they are the first ones who lived in the civilization & grew population

like ancestors

[golden cave]

@sinful anvil I don’t think so?

[compact olive]

Maybe... Eden crystal sucked the majority of the ancestors memories/spirits up? (I also have a crackpot theory that the vault elders kept each spirit in the archives )

[golden cave]

Coz in every spirit that we bring back their memories...just like the Afro one, there also some of their friends

[sweet dirge]

Vault elder keeping spirits in the archives

[golden cave]

Yeah and release that suitable for us.....

Where there’s no any negative moment in the way of their memories at that moment...

[compact olive]

Breadcrumbs for sKids to follow

[golden cave]

😓ouh my English

[compact olive]

Your english is superb

[golden cave]

Nope..
Not at all😅

[compact olive]

What if the king is inside of the crystal at Eden?

[golden cave]

I want to think about the triangle banner beside the prairie big temple...
Why it stay there...?

[hushed steeple]

what if the spirits from season are the rest of the civilization

[compact olive]

Odette, which banner?

[hushed steeple]

I dont really understand the valley elder cutscene

[golden cave]

@compact olive I’ve been thinking about it for along time....
I think that is the king’s good heart memory kid or as a prince...

@compact olive that lined banner above the clouds

[tender dune]

?

[golden cave]

That big temple in the end of prairie

[compact olive]

I’m not sure Odette. I can’t remember what it looks like.

Lambdaw, what confuses you about the cutscene?

[sweet dirge]

It looks like those party decor

Right?

[golden cave]

@sweet dirge yeahhhh

[compact olive]

Anyone have a pic of the banner?

[tender dune]

[golden cave]

Hmmm brb

[sweet dirge]

I think it's just to complement the happy atmosphere of prairie

[hushed steeple]

I am confused by their seemingly hostility and their purpose

like this stuff?

[compact olive]

I found out that the mini doors at birds nest in prairie are actually normal sized doors

Ahhhh... the party flags

[topaz girder]

uHh what if when we go to orbit, there's these falling buildings and rocks and thunders right? what if those are the "last moments" before the extinction wjwjj

[sweet dirge]

You also see a similar banner in forgotten ark

[tender dune]

i mean, if u go by the cutscene of valley with the tomcept then yes, they elders are basically showing u their mock battle (back when they used to do mock battles)

[topaz girder]

I found out that the mini doors at birds nest in prairie are actually normal sized doors
@compact olive
there's doors in bird nest?

[hushed steeple]

Oh

[sweet dirge]

From the buildings I think

[compact olive]

My wife has screenshots I will have her send me later. But I basically put her on my table and glitched her under the grass and saw the full door

[golden cave]

This one guys

[compact olive]

Which means the buildings sank or the ground grew around it.

[topaz girder]

ah, what is the spirit on bird nest doing lol

[tender dune]

bird calling

[compact olive]

There are doors, this used to be a functioning building. Maybe a temple of some sort

[golden cave]

Bird nest that one on the highest?

[topaz girder]

[golden cave]

That girl actually playing with birds

[topaz girder]

oooh

[golden cave]

Just like Cinderella

[compact olive]

Odette maybe it was someone’s birthday ?
And they forgot to take the decoration down?

[topaz girder]

[tender dune]

my game crashed while normally walking in forest..

[golden cave]

Or any princess that do that like Odette

[topaz girder]

what if it was a house

[golden cave]

@compact olive that is hilarious 😂
In second thought, I think that thing is the most important think in prairie!

[tender dune]

the irony

[hushed steeple]

Are the bordering islands in sanctuary islands actually on the ocean?

[golden cave]

That party banner maybe show us we are in the kindergarten ages!

[topaz girder]

ooh, so pushing the theme of innocence and childhood

[golden cave]

Yeahhhhhh

[compact olive]

The reason I say a temple instead of a house is that they’re located near constellation markers and they have really tiny quarters. Doesn’t seem good for living in. But I mean hey, who knows. Could be that they liked to live tight.

[golden cave]

@hushed steeple yuup

Yeah they squish themselves

Or using the chibi and small potions

[sinful anvil]

i like small spaces too, like huts

[golden cave]

Then when that potion already out of stock, they can’t stay in anymore....

[compact olive]

Oh my goodness no.....
(O_O)

[golden cave]

Or it is the bird nest

[tender dune]

[golden cave]

Where the birds live

[compact olive]

Not “live” odette.... captured!

It’s most likely a storage unit !! Nooooooo!!

[golden cave]

????

😅

[sweet dirge]

Oh my

[compact olive]

You learn the butterfly call, and the bells are bigger animal calls. And those buildings had one human/ancestor sized door and inside had paintings of manta flying up inside of the walls. There were no windows. It was sealed up!

[topaz girder]

maybe its like a bird nest, and that lady is the caretaker (ignore my crack theory)

[compact olive]

It was probably a storage unit they used to store mantas and butterflies for stuffing in pots

[topaz girder]

ooh make sense

[golden cave]

How to stores mantas??

[tender dune]

trap

[compact olive]

The pots are at the bottom and around it...

[golden cave]

[tender dune]

in ma territory

xD

[golden cave]

Mantas were tooooo big

[sweet dirge]

Why do they need light creatures again??

[topaz girder]

maybe it is a nest lmao

to farm light creatures maybe?

[golden cave]

It is just a nest

[hushed steeple]

Wait wait wait, those flags are prayer flags

[compact olive]

To use their light to power stones

[hushed steeple]

Oops my internet is bad

[half drum]

I think it’s a tower just like Rapunzel’z tower

[topaz girder]

yea for stones

[sweet dirge]

To use their light to power stones
@compact olive in a good and ethical way right? 👁👁

[topaz girder]

[golden cave]

That girl is Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella call the mantas to lift her up to that hanging island

[compact olive]

They have bigger pots inside Elder temple at prairie Odette. And also baby mantas could fit inside regular pot

[golden cave]

Ouh yeah I don’t remember that one

[half drum]

Baby mantas awwww

[tender dune]

permission to put manta in pots plz

[sweet dirge]

[topaz girder]

maybe its a light creature farm

i was joking

[sweet dirge]

It's plausible

[tender dune]

praire is a farm

basically

[sweet dirge]

Yea if you think about it

[tender dune]

they are the hotspot of light creatures esp butterflies

[sweet dirge]

The bells call light creatures

And bird nest

[golden cave]

Yeah all the production starts

[topaz girder]

mmm tasty

[tender dune]

the left side of praire shows that they have boats and lots lotsss of pots

and the same boats are probably seen in forest too

with those pots

[golden cave]

The foods , storages, even child 😂

[topaz girder]

the boats are for transporting pots, right?

[tender dune]

yeah

and probs transporting ppl too

[golden cave]

I’ve read in YT someone said at first isle is the place that we call harbour?

Then it can’t stand the disasters, Prairie take care of it...

[topaz girder]

also is there king propaganda in isle

show ?

[golden cave]

It’s not the king, obviously...

[tender dune]

yes

[compact olive]

It’s maybe prince propaganda?

[golden cave]

It is the isle guider

[topaz girder]

[lethal stump]

Hey yall, whats up ?

[golden cave]

Or a man that show us the way to go where and where

Hey bricky!!

[tender dune]

Boat and pots

BRICKYYY

[compact olive]

Bricky!

[lethal stump]

I see y’all are talking about King propaganda

[sweet dirge]

Hey brriicklyy

[tender dune]

we talked about a lotta stuff

lel

[compact olive]

And prince propaganda

[lethal stump]

Oh, have you mentioned the princes in prairie ?

[compact olive]

And Bricky the birds nest is a trap!

[golden cave]

And the pots that stores the baby mantas😂😂😂

Ahahahahahahahah

[lethal stump]

prince-looking statues in the prairie cloud tunnel

[sweet dirge]

Oooo

[compact olive]

All hail the king!

[lethal stump]

also, the small bells look like the prince

[golden cave]

That show the way that prince become to king

[lethal stump]

like the ones on the centre island

[golden cave]

And then turn to corrupted king

Don’t you think??

[lethal stump]

Yes !

That’s one of the theories i’ve been working on

[golden cave]

At first they look like kind statues

[topaz girder]

what is this

[golden cave]

Until,the last statues it show us their statues become more epic( more emotions)

Ouh that head???

The head that fall from the scholar statues?

[compact olive]

That statue looks like it’s seen some hard days

[topaz girder]

[compact olive]

It’s a broken face of the statues at Eden

[topaz girder]

ooh

[compact olive]

Some call them “scholar statues”

[golden cave]

Yeah

What kind of scholar I don’t know?

[lethal stump]

my theory goes somewhat like...

Prairie, childhood: we see the prince who is, well, a child
Forest, teenage years: we see a bigger, likely « older » prince/king on the doorways
Valley, young adulthood: odd lack of king
Wasteland, midlife crisis: large statues of an obviously adult king
Vault, old age: not obviously there, but in the patterns and shapes, he’s there. Possibly to represent him fading as he gets « older »
Eden, death: we see him when we die :>

[compact olive]

Bricky, did you know that the birds nest could have been a storage unit for baby mantas?!

Were you hiding these secrets from us to shield us from the hurtful truth?

[lethal stump]

I thought as much for a while

No, when i brought it up it was ignored

[golden cave]

What?!😂

[topaz girder]

falling king statue at eden?

[compact olive]

Man, wish I was there. I would have backed you up 220%

[golden cave]

I’ll take 3000% ♥️♥️

Hahahahahah

I miss him

[lethal stump]

I mentioned that it could have been a breeding facility, since prairie was for agriculture and working with animals, so it would make sense to be an animal farm of sorts

[golden cave]

Hope his daughter can replace his place in future

@lethal stump totally

[lethal stump]

which is also why we see so many birds and mantas flying around, that’s where they were raised

Daughter ? Who’s daughter ?

[golden cave]

No no

[tender dune]

OH OH OH YE

I FORGOT

uh

wait

[golden cave]

Ignore that Ironman story

[compact olive]

And stuffed into pots

[hushed steeple]

Ohh I really need to study the game before starting to write here

[lethal stump]

Read the pins, Vrangr !

[golden cave]

Ouh you can read it in pins

It is a lot of informations

[tender dune]

bricky you think the pic of the mystery body u found is the pic of the person in this?

https://discordapp.com/channels/575762611111592007/632004389137154048/740558705355128934

[lethal stump]

Oo, thé pose is very similar

[golden cave]

The pose???

[compact olive]

Teth....

[lethal stump]

I do believe the body has something to do with the prince/king, that’s for sure

[compact olive]

Bricky...

[golden cave]

Yeah sure but what about pose?

Yeah oz?

[compact olive]

No freakin way!

[lethal stump]

The pose of the mystery body

[tender dune]

xD

[compact olive]

You guys found the king!!!

[golden cave]

Ouh

[tender dune]

you should thank infinity tbh

[golden cave]

Ooooooooo

[tender dune]

and esp bricky for finding it

[lethal stump]

mystery body

[tender dune]

[golden cave]

I’ve taken the picture but it’s weird angle

[compact olive]

The only body to survive (well I mean is it really “surviving” ? Not so much) the blast of Eden storm!?

[golden cave]

O m g there is a mystery body??!!!!!!

[topaz girder]

yall r going nuts on the lore, keep doing that

[golden cave]

Hahahahaha yuup

[compact olive]

You found gold!

[golden cave]

The only one precious gold

[tender dune]

[lethal stump]

reminds me of in pre-launch beta, the elders’ bodies could be found around the eden diamond

[golden cave]

But how can you manage to find it??

Find that mystery pose

[topaz girder]

[lethal stump]

i did immortal glitch to look around eden without threat of death

[golden cave]

No I mean....it’s a huge place

[lethal stump]

not really

stormlock is tiny imo

[tender dune]

he took his time and without rocks you can see better

[lethal stump]

and i did spend like an hour and a half just looking around sooooo

[tender dune]

at like, 4am

😂

[golden cave]

So you’ve search or just strolls around

[tender dune]

[golden cave]

Omg

[normal berry]

hhhow do you do the immortal glitch

[golden cave]

Go hug that boy

Warp to friend in Eden

[normal berry]

ah

[golden cave]

But is it the friend that still fighting for stones kids?

[sweet dirge]

MYSTERY BODY WHOT

[compact olive]

It must be acknowledged!!

All hail the potential body of the king has been found by this brave soul

It must be acknowledged!!

All hail the potential body of the king has been found by this brave soul

[normal berry]

and when the friend dies they can hug the boi and warp to me?

[sweet dirge]

[normal berry]

it would be the prince if anything

[golden cave]

Just sooooo mystery you can find that mystery pose in that big or small place

[normal berry]

since it seems to be closer to our size

[lethal stump]

same person

[topaz girder]

goo neigh everyone!!

remember to sleep

[normal berry]

ye but it aint big

[golden cave]

Yeah I’ve think it is the same person now

[normal berry]

so im just being more specific

[topaz girder]

the prince aint big

[golden cave]

Yeahhh

[topaz girder]

its smol

[sweet dirge]

remember to sleep
@topaz girder I can't sleep after I found out about this

[topaz girder]

like our size

[compact olive]

A body you can’t put a Star into, that you can’t light with your fire like the ancestor spirts... that “can’t be saved anymore”
Come on!,

[golden cave]

Then he grows moreee biiiggg after consumed that dark stone!!!!!???

[lethal stump]

ehh

some people think it’s a mech

[golden cave]

Ahh???

Mech?

[normal berry]

mech

[tender dune]

🤖

[sweet dirge]

Should I pull up the concept art again?

[normal berry]

ye

[sweet dirge]

Nvm

[golden cave]

What about that moral with that mystery pose and something circle on his hand?????

[normal berry]

huh?

[sweet dirge]

He can come out of it you know

[compact olive]

Teth, Bricky, what’s the location on the Eden map for that body?

[normal berry]

when the king becomes corrupted he is trapped

[hushed steeple]

The flags may be reference to Tibetan prayer flags which are hanged along high altitude areas which would carry the prayers and mantras inscribed through wind, bringing peace and harmony to the land and healing the environment. The five colors of the flags correspond to five elements, yellow-earth, red-fire, green-water,white-air,blue-space. Colored flags often have inscriptions on them of different prayers that are hanged up in the event of a cataclysmic event or natural disaster to calm the natural spirits and invoke the blessings of deities. The directions and inscriptions have many bearings on the message of the flags and hanging them at critical auspicious dates can provoke negativity and harm. The flags shown hanging from the temples in daylight prairies have the color pattern yellow and white, signifying both air and earth, this aligns with the description of green light that it is the gift to earth from the sky.

[sweet dirge]

Interestiikngg

[golden cave]

@normal berry I mean the one in the moral in Vault end scene

[lethal stump]

mural ?

[normal berry]

the mural?

[golden cave]

Yeahhhh hahahah mural

[normal berry]

yeah he is prolly portrayed big there because... king propaganda

[compact olive]

Um...the king got blasted super far away from the center

[hushed steeple]

I dont see any bodies in the images, am i blind?

Body*

[lethal stump]

i legit traced it in purple..

[normal berry]

smh my guy got yeeted

[sweet dirge]

Reference

[compact olive]

Is it just me or does anyone else imagine him sliding backwards on his knees as he’s turned to Pompeii ash statue?

[lethal stump]

slicing ?

[golden cave]

I mean why it is not when I said that...

That prince consumed that dark stone( ball thing in mural)become a big king....
Then when he become a biggg King, he is slowly corrupted

[normal berry]

i mean sure, nothing is really cannon so that could be true too

[compact olive]

I meant sliding

[normal berry]

also, brick, how tall is your character?

[lethal stump]

size 1 on the old chart

[normal berry]

ah

so tallest

[sweet dirge]

Size 1!?

[lethal stump]

ill check today again

[sweet dirge]

Brick is the king

[lethal stump]

1 or 2

[golden cave]

How to check tall????

[lethal stump]

#questions-and-help

[normal berry]

still pretty tall

[compact olive]

Could be one of the lower people at the bottom also kneeling in this picture?

[normal berry]

any you are about the same height as that body kneeling down

so if that was the prince

[tender dune]

yeah oz we mean that the body we found could be that kneeling pic of the dude eating the orb

[lethal stump]

my friend and i think that straight up, the body would be about the size of Thrillseeker/Jelly call spirit

[sweet dirge]

No the people under

There is also people kneeling

[tender dune]

ah those

possible

but why would there only be one and not many surviving tho?

[sweet dirge]

Maybe there's more inprints hiding

[lethal stump]

nope, most of my 1hr30 was spent looking for more bodies
that’s the only one

[sweet dirge]

1.5hour!?

[tender dune]

trust in 🧱 for he is

[sweet dirge]

[compact olive]

Ash remains... maybe the others blew away?

[lethal stump]

maybe

but the physical evidence we have rn is 1 body

[compact olive]

It’s juts ...reeeeeealy far from the center

But... it could be as close as anyone got to the crystal before the the kaboom...

I want it to be the king.

[tender dune]

u think the stone statues we save are the kneeling ppl?

[lethal stump]

view of crystal from body

[compact olive]

Maybe... oh check this out... maybe just maybe!!

[tender dune]

bricky if ur going there again look for something like an orb like the doodle

[sweet dirge]

Ooo it's pretty close

[tender dune]

🍀

[compact olive]

He was in the mecha... and the people got obliterated and the mecha was disintegrated and that’s why his ash body is left ???.

[tender dune]

possible

[lethal stump]

why would the organic material survive but the inorganic not ? usually it’s the other way around...

[tender dune]

cough 🦕 ?

[normal berry]

what organic material survived? i always assumed the plant life we see now was just the product of eons of regrowing

[compact olive]

The protection of the mecha was... maybe the mecha was made of flesh? I dunno lol

[normal berry]

and we do see other organic material as stone

[lethal stump]

i like the pompeii ash body theory
the body itself likely isn’t there anymore, only the shell of debris/corruption

[tender dune]

in sanc rn

[lethal stump]

we’re the new body

[compact olive]

I have a question...

[normal berry]

My theory is that the eden blast turned most organic material to stone... like a medusa pompeii

[wispy canopy]

Hey giys

[tender dune]

oh lord the lag

[compact olive]

Why... is there water on the ground at Eden ?

Wb iKing

[lethal stump]

that ain’t water

[dull fox]

It’s oil

[lethal stump]

it’s polluted, like the stuff in wasteland

[dull fox]

I always thought it was oil

[normal berry]

dark sludge i like to call it

I thought of it as liquified darkstone

[compact olive]

(O_O).... || blood? ||

[dull fox]

I know what it is. Hold on

[wispy canopy]

It's toxic water

Same visual property of dark flowers

[dull fox]

This

[tender dune]

😭 the plants are gone again i was gonna go get the crab

[dull fox]

Is what it is

[compact olive]

Or..... liquified || people ?||

[wispy canopy]

As messed up as that sounds, I don't think so

[golden cave]

Soooo messed up

[normal berry]

makin me queasy 🤢

[wispy canopy]

Because its like liquified darkness or highly polluted water

[tender dune]

yeah unfortunately they'd dry up and evaporate eventually (dinsintegrate)

[golden cave]

😭😭

[wispy canopy]

The rain in forest is lightly polluted

[golden cave]

Maybeee

[wispy canopy]

This one is directly involved with darkness

The ones in wasteland

[normal berry]

actually

that makes sense

[dull fox]

When a nuclear explosion goes off it’ll often rain after the blast and the water of the rain will be highly contaminated with fallout. I think it’s probably something like that

[golden cave]

I think because our child actually feel so cold in that place fire can’t stand of rain

[dull fox]

That’s also possible

But the Eden and wasteland water could be highly contaminated fallout water

[normal berry]

or some darkness evaporated and then the 𝓌𝒶𝓉𝑒𝓇 𝒸𝓎𝒸𝓁𝑒

[tender dune]

When a nuclear explosion goes off it’ll often rain after the blast and the water of the rain will be highly contaminated with fallout. I think it’s probably something like that
except the only downpart to that is that the factory at wasteland exploded but there is no rain while forest temple is intact but with rain

[golden cave]

But that explosion maybe also

But I still think about cold

[tender dune]

sry im like chasing mantas while typing

[compact olive]

There’s still water in wasteland Teth

[tender dune]

tru oz

[dull fox]

But have you noticed that the liquid in the wasteland visually sucks the light from you? It’s not like the rain where it just gets put out, you can visibly see particles getting sucked from you if you stand in it

[golden cave]

Yeah that a polluted water

[compact olive]

Dark matter water

[tender dune]

so its possible that forest will end up like wasteland eventually

[golden cave]

Nani??!!!

[normal berry]

probably because your standing in pure darkness water, while rain contains a mix

[tender dune]

[normal berry]

a little bit diluted

[golden cave]

Dark Matter.........

[dull fox]

Well the rain in the forest is just a cold rain. I don’t think there’s any darkness involved or the puddles and pools would suck your light too

[golden cave]

Yeahhh

[dull fox]

But once the rain stops you can stand in the water as much as you like with no consequences.

[golden cave]

Coz in the teen age we are not polluted yet

[lethal stump]

If it’s the cold, then standing in valley would make us lose light

[dull fox]

Also the forest is right before the snowy mountain tops

Which is why it would be colder

[golden cave]

Maybe not cold but it’s water

[tender dune]

😭 the lag is yeeting me from manta riding

[golden cave]

Oufff

[normal berry]

true, but if temperature was involved in draining light, wouldn't valley always be draining us?

[lethal stump]

why would it be colder at sea level ?

[golden cave]

Turn off notifications

[tender dune]

notifications off

im using pc discord rn

[dull fox]

I have no idea @normal berry

[golden cave]

So in the rain it’s not cold...but only water that trying to turn off the lights...

[dull fox]

It could also have something to do with that it’s rain...

Something about it falling could put out our candle better than swimming in it does

I dunno

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[golden cave]

Ouh yeahh😥

[normal berry]

Its possible that that body of water in the final area of the forest is large enough, that the concentration of pollution wasn't enough to do any severe damage

[golden cave]

Why we can swim??

[dull fox]

It’s bizzare

[golden cave]

Why are you gaaaayy

[dull fox]

Has anyone realized that skykids must produce a lot of heat? We carry candles in us

[golden cave]

😂

[normal berry]

what?

[golden cave]

Why we can swim???

[dreamy ember]

Probably as hot as the sun itself

[dull fox]

Imagine how hot ||the office|| must have been when the party was going on

[dreamy ember]

Just very few reach

[golden cave]

Ouh ma gad

[dull fox]

Because we stand in campfires and it recharges us almost instantly

So we are immune to fire

[dreamy ember]

To be honest a sky kid in real life would provide infinite energy to sustain human civilisation

[golden cave]

How the water can be as hot as sun why not turn it to lavas

[dreamy ember]

Just ask them to light up a city

And they can somehow

[normal berry]

imagine being in the sun

water... doesn't turn into lava

[golden cave]

Why we can swim???

[dull fox]

what if there is no lore to the game and the devs are just watching this to pick and choose good ideas to make into the lore

[dreamy ember]

what if there is no lore to the game and the devs are just watching this to pick and choose good ideas to make into the lore
@dull fox

Bruh opening cutscene is official lore tho

We all fell from heaven

[dull fox]

XD

[dreamy ember]

||Orbit ||

[normal berry]

there will never be any direct lore other than a couple instances possibly, they said they want us to make up our own

[dull fox]

It has been said that a good way to make lore is to create a tiny tidbit of stuff and let everyone else try to figure the rest out

[golden cave]

Why we can swim???

[lethal stump]

devs have said there is a story. we just might never find out what it is

[dull fox]

Oof

[golden cave]

Ahhh I’ll stop now

[lethal stump]

#screenshots-and-videos please, Ultra

[golden cave]

Or memes

[dull fox]

Why can we swim? I think skykids are some kind of vessel meant for carrying light so we put the light inside us when we swim

That picture doesn’t belong in memes don’t put it there please

[lethal stump]

i think skids are hollow and made of clay, of course we can swim/float

[golden cave]

Why we losing light when raining

Is it the cape is our flesh???

[lethal stump]

capes are made of light

[normal berry]

because its polluted, read the earlier conversation

[dull fox]

The cape is made of light

[normal berry]

the cape is made of light

[golden cave]

Ouh

[dreamy ember]

We aren’t clay

Remember when we lose our light

[golden cave]

Cape is from light

[dreamy ember]

Some liquid pours out

Black liquid

It’s either blood

Or darkness

[dull fox]

I don’t think it’s liquid. I think the stuff is light getting sucked out of us

[lethal stump]

skid sound effects were made with clay...

[golden cave]

Ktuuukkk

Kddukkkkkk

Kttiiinngggggg

[lethal stump]

i think of us similar to golems from jewish mythology
we’re meant to protect and save

Odette please stop spamming random letters

[dreamy ember]

To be fair that’s kind of correct

[golden cave]

No that is the sound effect for clay

[normal berry]

A. clay is not really confirmed cannon, but a popular headcannon B. when do we pour out liquid? ive never seen that

[dreamy ember]

Since golems in Jewish mythology are angels from heaven taking form of objects

They serve to do God’s will

[lethal stump]

God in this case being Megabird

[normal berry]

thats... interesting...

[dreamy ember]

A. clay is not really confirmed cannon, but a popular headcannon B. when do we pour out liquid? ive never seen that
@normal berry

When losing light

[lethal stump]

do you mean the black stuff that covers you when you die ?

[hushed steeple]

@mild lark the EULA explicitly says
"In addition, you may not hack, emulate, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Game. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by us. You agree that you have no interest, monetary or otherwise, in any feature, content, or Intellectual Property contained in the Game;"
So much for decompiling and reverse engineering

[golden cave]

We also do the Light God will.... the Megabird ask us

[dull fox]

It’s also possible that (in a weird Stephen universe type of way) that our bodies are just a vessel that can change shape freely and is just made to hold the light and take it to Eden

[normal berry]

thats my favorite theory^

[dreamy ember]

Interestingly enough if we are the golems from that belief then we are technically angels since we have wings and are made out of the same golem-angel state

[dull fox]

Like not necessarily clay but a hologram of sorts

[normal berry]

like we are an illusion

[golden cave]

Who smiley face?

[dreamy ember]

Hologram

Nanj

Bruh how are we holograms?

[dull fox]

Because we can change our height, shape, and looks freely

[golden cave]

What is that for@hushed steeple

[dreamy ember]

If we are holograms now can the krill see us?

[dull fox]

We can see holograms

[lethal stump]

but we can interact with the world physically

[golden cave]

Holos vs holos

[dull fox]

I’m talking in a Stephen universe type of way where our bodies aren’t necessarily real but are physical

[golden cave]

No holos then

[dreamy ember]

Because we can change our height, shape, and looks freely
@dull fox

With magic spells and social space

I’m talking in a Stephen universe type of way where our bodies aren’t necessarily real but are physical
@dull fox

IS THAT A JOJO REFERENCE?

[golden cave]

Like shapeshifters

[dreamy ember]

Play Stardust crusaders

[golden cave]

Nani??

[normal berry]

sigh

[dull fox]

we are all stands

[lethal stump]

[normal berry]

ok back to lore shall we?

[lethal stump]

yes please

[dull fox]

There is a sentient light being inside us that is being moved by a body of its creation

[lethal stump]

im still wondering what was meant by « Black liquid »

[dull fox]

The stuff in the wasteland

[dreamy ember]

No like when you die

Or lose wl

[golden cave]

Not from our body?

[dreamy ember]

It has some black stuff

[lethal stump]

no, Ultra said that black liquid comes out of us when we die and i’m wondering what they mean from that

[dreamy ember]

Moving out from our body

[hushed steeple]

@dull fox

IS THAT A JOJO REFERENCE?
@dreamy ember
😳

[lethal stump]

that doesn’t come out it just collects on our skin
it’s darkness

[dreamy ember]

I see

[dull fox]

Darkness growing on us

[frigid leaf]

i saw from somewhere that sky sort of represents life: isle is birth, prairie is childhood, the hidden forest is like teenage years, valley is early adulthood, wasteland is sort of like your mid-life crisis (lol), and vault is when you're old hence the knowledge theme. oh and eden is basically death rebirth so the cycle goes on and on and on

[golden cave]

@lethal stump yeah I’ve read that he said that it’s maybe a blood?

[dull fox]

The crabs have it too

[dreamy ember]

@frigid leaf

It says that in office

[normal berry]

we probably dont have blood

[golden cave]

So it’s just a darkness

[dreamy ember]

Posters beside the fridge

[lethal stump]

yes, the devs intended that

[frigid leaf]

i haven't been to the place that says that so i only learned from some random posts

@frigid leaf

I can see why the forest elder represents the teenage year

[tender dune]

Sanctuary manta:

• big manta is 4 winged, 3 pairs of horns along its body (appears to be the adult version of the medium mantas)
• medium mantas 4 wings (2 smol wings which indicate its juvenile)
• small manta (no wings) + unride-able (babeh)

[normal berry]

babeh kjsadjds

[dreamy ember]

Forest elder is.... I just really have to say

Is not

isn’t it

The best

[golden cave]

A women?

[dreamy ember]

Thing

[tender dune]

🔪

[normal berry]

heh

[dreamy ember]

Welp I’m not scared to say that forest elder is pretty hot ngl

[golden cave]

Why it should be a woman to be an elder?

[lethal stump]

the elders don’t have genders

[tender dune]

elders technically dont have a gender

[golden cave]

Ahh

[dreamy ember]

Hmm

[normal berry]

no gender

[golden cave]

Just the hair then

[tender dune]

she do got dem heels tho

[golden cave]

I love GW heels

[dreamy ember]

Okay that’s enough

Back to lore

[lethal stump]

Ultra, please keep those comments to yourself

this isn’t the place the fawn over elders being attractive

[dreamy ember]

Aight sorry

[lethal stump]

thank you

[hushed steeple]

We can't explore the game file on Android or even pc
So why not activated that risky root and actually gain access to explore to game file
It high risk high reward kinda idea

@golden cave

You have to scroll back alot to see it, i was responding to this

[golden cave]

????

Hmmmm

[hushed steeple]

Smilyface suggested someone dump the source apk and decompile it, but it is against the TOS/EULA

[gray bridge]

yes it is

[maiden cargo]

Guys, are the 2 valley’s elder both males?

[gray bridge]

so let's not talk about that anymore

elders have no gender, up to you how you want to interpret them tho

[dreamy ember]

I wish there were more elder gifts

Not just their hair

[golden cave]

Ouh

[normal berry]

I with there were more elders

[lethal stump]

#wishlist-and-ideas-archived

[golden cave]

Anyway I’ll offline now

[hushed steeple]

I dont think sky is a world with gender, its just a preference wether the sky people like long hair or not and such

It’s like if u like long sleeve shirts or short sleeve shirts

[normal berry]

brick, so i just thought, if you do the immortal glitch does that mean you are stuck in eden?

[lethal stump]

i just had to reload the game, it’s fine

[normal berry]

ah

[dreamy ember]

Valley is probably like Rome or soemtjing

I mean the designs are kind of Roman

The vibe the elders give is as if they were emperors or some kings etc

[lethal stump]

yes, it’s based on rome and greece

[dreamy ember]

They also really love sports

Valley is like competition is everything

[hushed steeple]

Is prairies based on tibet

[lethal stump]

yes

[dreamy ember]

Wuuuuut

How is it chinese?

Definitely Doesent give a chinese aura to me

[lethal stump]

tibet isn’t chinese...

[hushed steeple]

...

[normal berry]

b r u h

[dreamy ember]

Welp I guess it’s kind of close to China so it’s culture can’t be that different

But still

It Doesent seem like to me

[lethal stump]

???

[gray bridge]

what

[normal berry]

b r u h

[lethal stump]

They have very different cultures...China has very different cultures, it’s a huge country !

[orchid crypt]

how is it Chinese?
it's not, actually -- Tibetian architecture was specifically quoted as feeling exotic to most Chinese people

“And so, as we create visuals, I wanted to have something that nobody had seen, but yet still feels familiar. And so the majority of the architecture from Journey had Middle Eastern influences. Because that still felt exotic. For Sky most of the architecture we took was from Burma, Bhutan and Tibet, which is exotic to Chinese and Japanese people.”

[dreamy ember]

I must be misinformed. Thanks to those who correcting me tho

[lethal stump]

Can i ask, have you read the pins, Ultra ?

[hushed steeple]

Prayer wheels, prayer flags, the prairies temple is modeled after Tibetan monasteries i believe

[lethal stump]

The canon lore doc specifically

[hushed steeple]

What does oreeye mean

[sly kestrel]

Huh

[hushed steeple]

I mean oreoyes

[lethal stump]

oreo ?

[normal berry]

oh its an emoji

[lethal stump]

it just means « yes »

[sly kestrel]

It’s oreo saying yes

[orchid crypt]

that's just a "yes" icon

[hushed steeple]

Like this emote oh

[sly kestrel]

In the sky server it means the ppl who reacted it are agreeing to what ur saying

[orchid crypt]

it's just a quick emote shorthand for saying "that's correct", while its "no" equivalent is commonly used to answer "no" to a question without needing to use a full message

[lethal stump]

it’s a japanese term meaning « pretty boy »

[hushed steeple]

I think I need a sky jargon file

[dreamy ember]

Oh okay, thanks

[sly kestrel]

It’s also a nickname for this hair I believe

[proven sigil]

Tbh sky jargon is easy to learn

[orchid crypt]

unrelated to sky in general, and i think the mods have deemed it sorta inappropriate for the server now due to its usage and implications

[lethal stump]

that’s why it’s censored

[normal berry]

mostly identified by tall players wearing the undercut, the , or that other season of sanctuary short haircut

and yeah skykids are/ appear as children so that is not appropriate

[hushed steeple]

What is the topic now?

[normal berry]

l o r e

[lethal stump]

we got off topic

[dreamy ember]

Hmm can we talk about the anatomy of a krill?

All of us got topic

[normal berry]

heh, saw that

[tender dune]

Sorry for the interruption but here are the 3 mantas in sanctuary. ( sry for being late in sending pics, someone wanted me to uber them)

[dreamy ember]

Makes you think that they are loud and they are like planting some weird darkness seeds

Must be robotic

Metal

You can hear clanking sounds

[lethal stump]

@/bluespirit#8811 made this

[hushed steeple]

Uber?

[dreamy ember]

And they have lights XD

[tender dune]

The 3 pair of horns in the big one

[normal berry]

krill are natural i believe

[mortal viper]

And I have been summoned

[hushed steeple]

What is uber

[lethal stump]

if you guys have questions about sky terms please ask in #questions-and-help

[hushed steeple]

Ok

[normal berry]

lore related questions belong here tho

[dreamy ember]

Woah

[sly kestrel]

Uber not lore tho

[dreamy ember]

Krill do have spikes

[normal berry]

yes

[hushed steeple]

I exclusively live in #lore-discussion-spoilers though, i am bounded to this dimension only

[proven sigil]

Maybe krill used to be a light species but got corrupted and became extinct

[dreamy ember]

What could be more predator than a krill

That very cool to think about

[proven sigil]

Whales

[hushed steeple]

Ok i got the definition from the wiki

[proven sigil]

Whales eat krill irl

[sly kestrel]

Well they aren’t aiming towards us but it’s very possible they can hunt down krill

[normal berry]

@hushed steeple sorry, rules are rules, gotta take a visit to #questions-and-help it seems

[dreamy ember]

Maybe those big fish that you see in underground forest and ||orbit||

[lethal stump]

@mortal viper take it away, oh biology man

no need to spoiler here

[sly kestrel]

Maybe those big fish that you see in underground forest and ||orbit||
@dreamy ember that is the whale

[dreamy ember]

Hmm interesting

So that’s why they appear in golden wasteland too

[sly kestrel]

It’s actually a fan name from us, not actually a whale

[lethal stump]

it’s not, it’s a big fish

[proven sigil]

Its a coleacanth

[normal berry]

looks more like a fish imo

[proven sigil]

Isnt it?

[sly kestrel]

It’s based on 2 irl fish

[orchid crypt]

wasn't it referred to as the "tuna king" by the devs at some point, or am i misinformed on that?

[mortal viper]

sort of, Anita

[lethal stump]

the bones in wasteland are ACTUAL-ish whale bones

[sly kestrel]

But we jus called it a whale as a nickname since there’s no exact name for it

[lethal stump]

blue, show them your Whale Turtle sketch

[sly kestrel]

Coelacanth is one of the fish references in making the whale, I forgot the other fish they used

[mortal viper]

Tuna king is more apropriate imo

[dreamy ember]

Definitely Doesent look like tuna

[mortal viper]

blue, show them your Whale Turtle sketch
@lethal stump wait a moment

[lethal stump]

[sly kestrel]

It’s jus a dev nickname

[dreamy ember]

It’s a thicker and more round

Fish

[orchid crypt]

it kinda does look a bit whale-ish though in terms of body proportions -- most fish i'm used to seeing aren't really that...wide

[tender dune]

whale sketch

[hushed steeple]

Does the whale have one eye or two eyes

[sly kestrel]

2

[hushed steeple]

My theory is shattered

[sly kestrel]

Okokokok
The whale is a fan name since there is no actual name given for this creature, but if u call it the whale, a lot of ppl will understand you and know what ur talking about, BUT
It’s actually jus a creature that is a hybrid of 2 irl fish

[lethal stump]

we should make scientific names for the animals in sky

[primal crystal]

the mantas is Vault, they're spirit mantas, right?

[tender dune]

I mean. Aren't all cartoon/game creatures are based on irl animals?

[dreamy ember]

we should make scientific names for the animals in sky
@lethal stump

I agree

[lethal stump]

they’re also known as memories, Masq

[sly kestrel]

W H A L E

[primal crystal]

ohhhh

[tender dune]

and cosmic manta based on this sticker

[dreamy ember]

Let’s just call it Big Fish

[primal crystal]

XD ahshahahahah big boi fish

[hushed steeple]

In sanctuary islands, the mantas come out from the ocean?

[sly kestrel]

Special mantas

[snow remnant]

Moist manta

[dreamy ember]

Wait so here’s the food Chain in sky..(greater than means left eats right)

big fish > krill >

[mortal viper]

As requested by @lethal stump, this is my interpretation of the creature whose bones are spread across wasteland’s graveyard. I am making a second version, that is more whale-like.

[dreamy ember]

What u think is next?

Sky food chain

[primal crystal]

Ah! going back to the types of mantas, Elder mantas are massive right?

[orchid crypt]

i see a seal

[primal crystal]

how come there are smaller ones too?

[crimson grove]

@dreamy ember sorry for the late ping, but please don't bypass our language filter (if your message gets immediately deleted it means it has been censored). if you have any questions about moderation, feel free to DM any of us mods and ask us about it, but we don't take lightly people circumventing the filter even if it's to ask questions

It looks like one, yes, spearmonkey

[tender dune]

I mean. If they're based on irl manta rays then i guess they do exist in oceans

[lethal stump]

the bones seen look like 2 adults and a baby....

[sly kestrel]

Reika used turtles and whale bones as a reference to make the creatures at the graveyard
Looks like that’s exactly what u did blue spirit

[tender dune]

Ah! going back to the types of mantas, Elder mantas are massive right?
@primal crystal i mean just like how animals grow up. They also do

[lethal stump]

in gravy yard, that is

[normal berry]

aww a babey

[sly kestrel]

Elder mantas were jus an old concept originally

[hushed steeple]

Whale call exist ingame though, what is whale referring to

[sly kestrel]

This

[tender dune]

refsr to this

[mortal viper]

Fusing Green sea Turtles and Blue Whale, Jay

@crimson grove

I understand.

[hushed steeple]

But then why is whale a fan name if it is official

[lethal stump]

the « whale » in forest ain’t really a whale
blue can explain better

[sly kestrel]

Wait nvm nvm it’s actually called whale in sky I remember now

[tender dune]

Y'all making me wanna itch to redraw the landscape and ded animals now...

[mortal viper]

Do it teth

[snow remnant]

As requested by @lethal stump, this is my interpretation of the creature whose bones are spread across wasteland’s graveyard. I am making a second version, that is more whale-like.
@mortal viper it kinda reminds me of dugong, except they dont have the back fin(?)

[tender dune]

I've been in artblock for almost a year dunno if i have time rn tbh but ill try

[hushed steeple]

I mean the one in forest has to be a whale, otherwise there is no reference to begin classifying other creatures

[sly kestrel]

Jus don’t compare it to actual whales bc they aren’t related in any way, it’s jus 2 fish designs merged into one

[mortal viper]

the « whale » in forest ain’t really a whale
blue can explain better
@lethal stump yeah, it is a fish. Probably a Tuna king skeleton

[sly kestrel]

The name is the whale but....it’s not a whale

If that makes sense

[lethal stump]

it’s colloquially referred to as a whale, but it is not scientifically a whale

[sly kestrel]

The one at forest, it’s the whale

[dreamy ember]

So whales eat krill.
-Krill eat skids and smaller light creatures like manta.
-Crabs probably eat smaller light creatures by knocking them out and slowly eating etc.
-Butterflies act like normal butterflies except light (prob consume light)
-Jellyfish probably eat light too and some other Chems in water

[lethal stump]

and looking at the science of sky, we end up disproving colloquialisms

[sly kestrel]

It’s jus a theory that they eat krill in sky

[mortal viper]

The one at forest, it’s the whale
@sly kestrel it is a fish skeleton tho

[tender dune]

Colloquialisms..?

[sly kestrel]

But the name is a whale

Yes it’s a creature based on 2 fish but it’s called the whale

[lethal stump]

slang, popular culture, terms that may or may not be accurate

[tender dune]

Possible that its a baby whale

[mortal viper]

why they make it so confusing?!

[dreamy ember]

Getting a fish call Doesent mean it came from a fish it could come from a whale

[sly kestrel]

Yes bc it’s smaller then the one we see

[hushed steeple]

Yes i get that, but i feel like when you guys are referring to whale, you are not referring to an alive version of the whale in forest

[sly kestrel]

We are

[tender dune]

We do mean the whale in forest

Thats the only whale

[hushed steeple]

Blue says it is the tuna king skeleton

[sly kestrel]

The dead corpse at forest is the same one as the living one we see flying around in some areas

[lethal stump]

the only whales are in graveyard

[dreamy ember]

Since things turn into skeletons that means bacteria and decomposition is a thing in sky

[lethal stump]

scientifically

[mortal viper]

What are the two species of fish, Jay? One is the coelacanth, right?

[sly kestrel]

Tuna king is jus a silly name the devs called them

[dreamy ember]

So we can confirm the existence of microscopic creatures

[tender dune]

The ones at graveyard have whale and turtle shells so we'll refer to them as "the bones at the graveyard"

[dreamy ember]

Which makes me wonder since sanctuary is literally an island in the sea or ocean that means smaller krill could be there?

Like imagine baby krill

And big normal size krill

[sly kestrel]

U can theorize it

[lethal stump]

Graveyard: Whaleturtle (WT for short)
Forest: Tuna Baby
Big alive lad: Tuna King

[tender dune]

[dreamy ember]

Though it’s out of topic I thinking about fish wants me to think that next season could be underwater

[tender dune]

I mean. Sanctuary is basically beach themed

[hushed steeple]

Not necessarily, the creatures of light are materializations of light, it could be the light perished on death, leaving behind what we see

[dreamy ember]

Not necessarily, the creatures of light are materializations of light, it could be the light perished on death, leaving behind what we see
@hushed steeple

Interesting. But we sky kids don’t leave bones

So skids

Aren’t biological...?

[sly kestrel]

We don’t rlly have natural bodies

[proven sigil]

I think crabs are more scavengers

[snow remnant]

We're spirits

[lethal stump]

it seems skids are made of something, like stone or clay

[dreamy ember]

I think crabs are more scavengers
@proven sigil

Fair point. We don’t really see them eating us they just knock us out

[tender dune]

So many topics my headache

[proven sigil]

Like, they'll be able to knock you out and stuff but they'll eat anything thats there

[snow remnant]

I was thinking of metal, and that we're warm, that's why we need fire

[hushed steeple]

I mean mantas are vertebrates but in game they dont have bones..., i dont even know anymore

[lethal stump]

Skykids, Ancestors, and Elders are all different species

[languid patrol]

skykids are special weird demigod children

[dreamy ember]

We're spirits
@snow remnant

This is very very very accurate. Noice

[sly kestrel]

Real life physics was made very different for sky physics, especially the creature they referenced

[hushed steeple]

If we are spirits, why can the physical world affect us

[dreamy ember]

If you think of it crabs 🦀 in sky have stones for shells

[sly kestrel]

We aren’t....spirits

[lethal stump]

or just, hard exoskeletons like actual crabs

[hushed steeple]

I was replying to ultra

[tender dune]

I mean mantas are vertebrates but in game they dont have bones..., i dont even know anymore
Think about it in game mechanics. Are you gonna make tiny vertebrae and bones for the creature to look more "physical" but ruin the whole game load?
From the look they do have bones

CRAB PICS I SENT BEFORE I CAN'T RELINK

They're made of 2 parts

[elfin vessel]

There are manta bones in vault

[lethal stump]

meat and shell

[snow remnant]

We're spirits, given a body, like metal that's why we need heat and fire and wax, and our body stays in eden until other kid give us their light

[lethal stump]

but our body breaks when we die

[tender dune]

Should I resend crab pics? I dont like resending pictures...

[mortal viper]

I mean mantas are vertebrates but in game they dont have bones..., i dont even know anymore
@hushed steeple we have 2 types of creatures in sky: the ones made out of light (mantas, birds) and the ones made out of flesh (tuna king, whartle, crabs)
Then there is the krill

[languid patrol]

so we're robots

[sly kestrel]

I’m actually confused about those
The skeleton that the spirit manta comes out of doesn’t look like the manta at all
They don’t have skulls and rib cages

[tender dune]

It do

[languid patrol]

lol

[dreamy ember]

I mean let’s just think about how a stand works. A form of your personality in spirit form but can also interact with the real world.
Other stand users can see other stand so our skids might have physical properties like a stand from Jojo
(Not our of topic I’m comparing and deciphering lore with it)

[hushed steeple]

Ok i see, sorry for upsetting you teth

[tender dune]

Nah it cool im not upset xD

[snow remnant]

but our body breaks when we die
@lethal stump from what i remember, they dont break. Just staying still in eden, similar with the kids we need to save

[sly kestrel]

It does...break actually

The kids at eden are different from us

[dreamy ember]

@lethal stump from what i remember, they dont break. Just staying still in eden, similar with the kids we need to save
@snow remnant

Sounds like King Arthur where Pendragon stabs himself with Excalibur

[lethal stump]

i went to eden yesterday. my body broke when i died and my soul came out

[tender dune]

We do break when we die

[dreamy ember]

The kids at eden are different from us
@sly kestrel

I have to disagree

But we do break yes

[sly kestrel]

They are bigger, they ascend as stars, and were sent long before us

[dreamy ember]

But I think the kids aren’t different

[snow remnant]

The kids at eden are different from us
@sly kestrel i have to disagree too

[sly kestrel]

Plz don’t ping me when I’m literally right here

[snow remnant]

Then what do we save lmao, it's clearly a sky kid

[lethal stump]

I agree with Jay, they are different than us for the reasons he mentioned

[dreamy ember]

Plz don’t ping me when I’m literally right here
@sly kestrel
Okay sorry for that Jay

[mortal viper]

Sky kids 1.0

[hushed steeple]

We are spirits confined in a vessel, i believe the stone statues are the lost stars referenced by the intro poem/message. HK theory

[sly kestrel]

They are skykids but not the same skykids as us

[mortal viper]

We are Sky kids 2.0

[lethal stump]

subspecies !

[tender dune]

Pic of my friend infront of me still living but me as a soul (my body broke)

[sly kestrel]

The stars referenced in the intro were the elders

[lethal stump]

god we need a sky biology book

[snow remnant]

I just remember that we do break but i think it'll be just so the game functions best. It'll be troublesome if our real body stays

[tender dune]

Well yes but no

[dreamy ember]

I just remember that we do break but i think it'll be just so the game functions best. It'll be troublesome if our real body stays
@snow remnant

Imagine seeing piles of dead skids in stormlock

[sly kestrel]

We technically do already

[mortal viper]

@lethal stump, I am in

[lethal stump]

have you guys read the pins ? please do so

[sly kestrel]

Every last word

[dreamy ember]

How to read pin?

Sorry kinda new to disc

[tender dune]

^what brikson said

[orchid crypt]

our own sky kid's body breaking is probably also because it works better as a visual narrative: it's not as clear that we've perished if the body just stops moving and we fade to the dark room

[sly kestrel]

Although butter’s doc may be outdated

[lethal stump]

@orchid crypt aGREE

It's for game purposes

[sly kestrel]

All theories are welcome

[lethal stump]

if you don’t know how to read pins on discord just search it up online, please

[tender dune]

For me i believe that the indifferent part of us (the physical clay one) is the part that breaks down

[orchid crypt]

if we just freeze as a statue, and then we break out of the statue as a glowing sky kid later, it can potentially read like a shonen-style "break through your limits" kinda thing rather than it being clear that we've passed on and are ascending

[lethal stump]

but we don’t break out as a glowing skid

we break out as a soul

[tender dune]

[snow remnant]

We don't see that but we do fly with them before reborn

[orchid crypt]

the scene just before we transition to ascent though: it's the shape of glowing sky children coming out of the statues

[lethal stump]

those aren’t us, though

[orchid crypt]

rather than a blue orb soul

[snow remnant]

So we're just like the kids we save, we're glowing before the orbit, and fly as well

[lethal stump]

they become stars
we’re reborn

[orchid crypt]

ah, that's where i might suggest that it doesn't read entirely clearly -- i thought one of those would've been us, since we take control of a character that looks like that

your suggestion that it's not us may also be entirely valid, i'm not sure which way to read it

[sly kestrel]

Personally I believe we are different from them, but if it makes more sense to you that they are the same as us and we are jus like their statues, then there’s ur answer silver compass

[wispy canopy]

Hey guys, what's the topic

Hey Jay, teth, bricky how've u been

[tender dune]

still good, hbu? man

[slow cipher]

Hey guys, what's the topic
@wispy canopy mood lol

[wispy canopy]

I'm doin alrite bud

[tender dune]

too mamy topics infinity

[hushed steeple]

They are lost souls trapped in a vessel

[wispy canopy]

Hahah

[sly kestrel]

......do I...kno you
I’m alright btw

[slow cipher]

I'm new to exploring this chat

[lethal stump]

hm
now i’m thinking
the stars in the intro are the elders, and we’re told to « bring our lost stars home » but then...we bring skykids who turn into stars into orbit instead ?

[wispy canopy]

They must be the stars

[lethal stump]

read the pins, Jlb ! all the info you need is there

[wispy canopy]

Our prime directive
