I don’t think it is bc the teaser horns are a bit thicker

restive peak
#

@severe rune i think its this one

woven perch
#

It’s the one from faint emote, here’s a pic for comparison with the same angle and hair as the TGC post

severe rune
#

okay, yeah! that looks right

#

thank you ;w;

lethal stump
#

the TGC one looks more angular and thick

severe rune
#

for a second i was like "!!?!?!!!?!!"

woven perch
#

np, and honestly that would have been a good theory, i'd love to see old masks return like that 😄

earnest vapor
#

I would love to see what lore y’all could come up with when I give u this one sentence: What if Skykids were robots?

pale kestrel
#

Honestly I'm just super hyped for the Prophecy

#

Can't wait to see what it really is

primal verge
#

Also we can go underwater

#

Without any damage

hushed steeple
#

it could be - but looking at the other masks in the teaser makes me think it's not, considering most look new...?
@severe rune bot all spirits need new masks tho, right?

tender trail
#

there is a "mask" that you can unlock which is nothing on your face

broken basin
#

Gotta pay 30 hearts Just to take off the mask pCry

gentle sparrow
tranquil thicket
#

truly unmasking oneself is the hardest thing of all

hushed steeple
#

:00

pastel brookBOT
#

Mods? WHERE?! SkyScared

uncut pier
gentle sparrow
#

I can see you out there my dear mods pSquint
I know how exactly this bot works GWcorsairAwoo

primal verge
#

What is a mod 👀

gritty aspen
#

So, do Sky Kids have facial features

#

I say not really, since if you take the mask off, you can’t see a mouth or nose

north fossil
#

Technically, no
Taking off the mask completely removes any features including eyes
Which is
Kinda creepy when you think about it

gritty aspen
#

Only features are eye sockets without eyes

#

Well thing is, that tells us that the dots on the mask aren’t their only sensory organs

#

And they seem to communicate similar to dolphins or whales, making vocalisations without a mouth.

north fossil
#

True
Sky kid biology is kinda sketchy, since sky kids are also technically stone/clay shells for the light to inhabit

wide knot
#

ive noticed that sometimes, rarely that when you sit down on a bench your ‘eyes’ blink

#

so they have eyelids then??

gritty aspen
#

Well those are the mask’s “eyes”

#

The children themselves don’t have eyes, at least not on their face like us

hushed steeple
#

When I run with chibi mask my kid "blinks" a lot, I think it's just the face glitching through the mask's eyes

north fossil
#

But then that would mean the mask in some way connects itself to the entire body to work with it as if it were its natural face

#

Ah yes, the old game of “lore, gameplay mechanic, or glitch”

gritty aspen
#

Perhaps it’s similar to human eye colour?

wide knot
#

also when you use sleepy emote your eyelids close

hushed steeple
#

I don't get that

gritty aspen
#

Eyelids on the mask?

light pier
#

You can see a nose and ears on skykids when you take the mask off in this pic so don’t skykids have facial features?

hushed steeple
#

they have shape but there are no nostrils

gritty aspen
#

That’s not a nose

hushed steeple
#

the ears also don't have any way for sound to enter

gritty aspen
#

That’s just the shape of the jaw

light pier
#

Well a nose bump I guess

north fossil
#

No, it kind of is actually
You can see a breathing animation on sky kids

hushed steeple
#

the face could be flat but yes, hint of a nose

gritty aspen
#

It’s not so much flat, but more like smooth

hushed steeple
#

some insects vibrate to heat up their wings after a long time without flying

north fossil
#

They breathe, so id say that is a nose

hushed steeple
#

perhaps the skykids are keeping themselves warm

gritty aspen
#

Well that indicates then that Sky kids have a respiratory system

hushed steeple
light pier
#

And when skykids call they can hear each other so doesn’t that mean they have ears?

hushed steeple
#

well it's light

ocean pasture
#

fire needs oxygen to burn right? maybe the light inside of them needs to pull in oxygen in order to keep functioning

hushed steeple
#

hmm

light pier
#

That does make sense

ocean pasture
#

and thats sort of why they appear to breathe

north fossil
#

Yes, it does
Sky kids dont have mouths because they dont eat, but they clearly have a nose and a breathing animation to prove it

hushed steeple
#

well light usually has a "wasted" energy, which is typically heat

#

so

#

there is definitely at least a connection between their light and heat

#

for sure

#

So how would them making sound recharge another kid?

light pier
#

It could always be a combination of light and sound?

hushed steeple
#

I mean, they use energy, so maybe just the heat, sound and light energy itself

north fossil
#

Well, you see that in game it emits a sort of light shockwave
Could just be a gameplay mechanic, but you see that if you’re within the shockwave, you get recharged. Not necessarily by the sound though, cause you can still hear the calls without getting charged

hushed steeple
#

A friend of mine proposed that the calls are literally made of light, but I don't know how that would work at all

#

It probably is the energy from the sound/light itself

light pier
#

So that would mean skykids can hear the energy from the shockwave

hushed steeple
#

or sense it in some way

gritty aspen
#

I do like the notion that they’re similar to whales

hushed steeple
#

their bodies also jolt a bit when they call, and deep calls always require a leap, so maybe they have to concentrate and convert their energy into sound from the light inside them

light pier
#

That makes sense

hushed steeple
#

then the "wasted" energy from making sound is the light "shockwave"

gritty aspen
#

Well I think the light that we see is just a visual representation of the sound shockwave

north fossil
#

Precisely, or at least that would be my theory
The calls are kind of the sky kids emitting a shockwave of light, and it creates a loud sort of sound that other kids can hear
You can see that its not just sound/light either, as the louder calls knock over crabs, which would indicate strong vibrations

gritty aspen
#

It’s clear though that the calls are echolocation, without a doubt

hushed steeple
#

yes, through the vibrations they send out they are able to feel or "see" where things are

#

and knock other things over, such as crabs

north fossil
#

That would also explain using a call to track your friends and other players

hushed steeple
#

as well as that, the calls allow them to communicate with other creatures of light, like birds, butterflies, fish and jellies

#

since they call back

#

I'm not sure why they call back, there may be a reason behind it

gritty aspen
#

Definitely, so they have the echolocation organ of whales (ik it’s the whale type and not the bat type because 1: it’s closed mouth, and 2: no big ears)

light pier
#

So that should mean sky kids can hear?

hushed steeple
#

They are also able to imitate the sounds of other creatures of light or darkness, any thoughts on that?

north fossil
#

Echolocation makes sense, since we very clearly see it used to track your friends locations

hushed steeple
#

Not hear as such, maybe feel

#

Maybe skykids are actually completely blind

north fossil
#

Oh, mimicry
With the creature calls, its never a perfect replica. Kind of like how people adopt habits or accents of things they like

hushed steeple
#

Yeah

ocean pasture
#

skykids being blind explains why mine jumps off the darkness plants every time im trying to burn them 🙄

light pier
#

Well I don’t think we would be able to feel the shock wave that far away because when we try to flip crabs we would probably use vibrations but when crabs are out of range of the shockwave they don’t flip over

hushed steeple
#

And the "breathing" could be the skykids vibrating to keep warm, explaining why it charges other kids

pale kestrel
#

Also my pfp :3

hushed steeple
#

Looks great, good guess at what it'd look like!

gritty aspen
#

I JUST REALIZED WHAT THE MASKS ARE FOR

pale kestrel
#

The eyes will probably be different though and the face shading I didn't change

lyric isle
#

Loving this skykid theory.

hushed steeple
#

Go on @gritty aspen

gritty aspen
#

It functions similarly to the melon in toothed cetaceans

#

The cape could also play a part.

hushed steeple
#

oh, hm

#

yeah

#

Makes sense

gritty aspen
#

Essentially, they act like the string in a tin can phone, conducting the vibrations outwards

lyric isle
#

The cape does seem kind of a lifeform in itself

hushed steeple
#

And the mimicry is true in whales and dolphins too, groups will all communicate with similar sound patterns

lyric isle
#

or at least specially made

hushed steeple
#

And yes, seems semi-sentient

gritty aspen
#

Wait, can you call without your cape?

hushed steeple
#

yes

#

but

#

your theory is still valid

#

when deep calling, skykids extend their arms and spin

gritty aspen
#

Isn’t it like extremely quiet without the cape?

hushed steeple
#

only when you have no charge

north fossil
#

I think the cape functions more like wings in a way
If you watch while you charge up, they appear to have a feathery pattern too

hushed steeple
#

but as I said, the skykid's arms could conduct the vibration outward

#

they do

gritty aspen
#

The cape doesn’t have just one purpose

hushed steeple
#

but it also looks a bit like cells in an animal

lyric isle
#

but as I said, the skykid's arms could conduct the vibration outward
That makes a lot of sense too

hushed steeple
#

such as.. striated muscle cells

gritty aspen
#

You can tell that it’s a wing of some sort by how the children flap it to fly

#

But it also flares out when you call

lyric isle
#

Maybe they sort of
manipulate it

north fossil
#

Sky kids really be going to the public outfit rooms to change the colour of their living wings huh

hushed steeple
#

yep, and when you level up, the skykid spins and throws out their arms, which in turn sends out those sparkles

gritty aspen
#

Well we don’t know if the wings are alive or not

lyric isle
#

Then why do some spirits have capes too? Do they function similarly, or...?

gritty aspen
#

Keep in mind the children came from the sea

north fossil
#

Imagine going to the closet you share with literally everyone to put on a different sentient muscle because you like the colour

gritty aspen
#

At least the elders did

hushed steeple
#

well actually, butterfly charmer has a yellow cape, and the memory whisperer has white

#

which matches the creature they correspond with, if that makes sense

lyric isle
#

Yep.

hushed steeple
#

Maybe it could have something to do with it

#

I'm unsure though

gritty aspen
#

Thing is, it seems like there’s two categories of whatever species this is: Normal, and Light

lyric isle
#

Bird Whisperer clearly went about...what they do differently to those two

gritty aspen
#

Since we can see that only the elders and the children can use light to fly and things

hushed steeple
#

Well, bird whisperer is the only call spirit with hair

#

and a proper memory sequence that isn't just fragments

lyric isle
#

Well, yes

hushed steeple
#

apart from crab or jelly

#

but those are seasonal

lyric isle
#

Possibly some sort of bird tamer/caretaker/general ornithologist

north fossil
#

It’s been confirmed that sky kids, spirits, and elders are all different species
They’re similar, but are all completely different

gritty aspen
#

Hmm

lyric isle
#

Distantly related species, perhaps

hushed steeple
#

he has several islands to himself and is the very first "whisperer"
maybe the bird whisperer is outcast?

#

since he seems different

gritty aspen
#

They have common traits that make me think that they’re the same species, just different types, almost like ants

lyric isle
#

Dr Doolittle

hushed steeple
#

he also has a different body type to all the other prarie spirits

#

they all have chonk or buff body types

north fossil
#

I wouldn’t say too distance though, cause we see quite a few similarities with how they use and interact with light
However, it appears that both spirits and elders can’t fly. We see that in how much boats were utilized for transportation

gritty aspen
#

That means that the one at home is from the prairies

lyric isle
#

I’m just wondering why that one has no cape as opposed to the Butterfly one

hushed steeple
#

well, the normal manta whisperer also doesn't have a cape

gritty aspen
#

Well, the boats were likely used by the commonfolk

hushed steeple
#

there are no boats in nest, but quite a few in the rest of prarie

gritty aspen
#

The elders don’t seem to have the same control of light as the children

lyric isle
#

I interpreted the ones that have capes as to have some sort of vocation/hobby that is best to have knowledge on how to fly

hushed steeple
#

I'm starting to believe Bird Whisperer really is an outcast

lyric isle
#

wait but why does Praying Acolyte of all people -

gritty aspen
#

Idk who these people areeeeee

lyric isle
#

I can’t wait for the update that will let us see the cutscenes again

#

So much to analyse

north fossil
#

Yeah, and the spirit in the nests doesn’t have a cape either (somewhere flight would be almost essential)

lyric isle
#

Yes, exactly.

hushed steeple
#

well you can ride manta so the manta whisperer doesn't need one, and memory whisperer has the white cape because it's a memory of alive manta?

lyric isle
#

Ah.

#

That’s onto something.

hushed steeple
#

the only way he can be close to the sky in nest is to climb, just like he does when you relive his memory

#

he stops at the top though, he can't fly

#

he is the only call spirit to have hair, and his hair sticks straight up maybe that's for a reason

#

Yeah, people are unfamiliar with the spirit names too

lyric isle
#

On the contrary, why are all the other call ones featureless?

north fossil
#

I honestly don’t believe that theres too much of a use for capes for the ancestors. Boats were used for travel because they have no way of utilizing flight like sky kids do (again, they are different species, so it’s likely they wouldn’t have the same ability)

hushed steeple
#

maybe they are the spirits of the actual creature

lyric isle
#

but why anthropomorphic then

hushed steeple
#

well, species evolve certain ways to adapt to their needs

#

and

thorn portal
#

Guys dying in sky menaing losing all wl? Or skykid can only die truly in eden? Idk definition of dying in sky sorry

lyric isle
#

@thorn portal I think either.

hushed steeple
#

Only in eden

#

it will force you into a scene where the only way out is to get a winged light

thorn portal
#

So meaning lights and wl is not the source of life of skykid

hushed steeple
#

unless you die in eden

lyric isle
#

It might be a lifeforce.

thorn portal
#

Meaning skykid is immortal in realms except in eden?

north fossil
#

Nope, you can die elsewhere
Going capeless requires death, sky kids are only able to live with a minimum of one winged light

#

Rebirth is what is exclusive to eden

sinful anvil
#

been thinking about the prophecy. i dont think it should be too revealing of serious things about the lore, bc that sounds like a finale, but its too early for a finale at this point. so i doubt whether it reveals anything about “if only they listened” but i rly want it to

lyric isle
#

I seriously can’t wait to be able to relive spirits without having to wait for moths

north fossil
#

You can die, but dying outside of eden wont grant you rebirth
You’ll basically start as a moth again without any wing buffs

thorn portal
#

So sky kid can die also when losing all wl thru krill toxic water or forest rain?

lyric isle
#

and being able to see the cutscenes

north fossil
#

Yes, sky kids can die via krill, toxic water, and crabs

hushed steeple
#

and
as I was saying, they are only represented like the other spirits because most of the whisperers only are fragments or an event, not real memories, they are represented in the anthropomorphic way because it is canon that light is the life source of all creatures including what spirits were but maybe when they die permanently they always look like spirits? I don't know, but birdman (as I call him) is the only whisperer with an actual memory sequence

thorn portal
#

But sky kid dying is when its spirit goes back to orbit?

#

Or we can consider skykid dies when all wl lost?

hushed steeple
#

I don't think so

sinful anvil
#

death is wonky here when ur designed to rebirth

hushed steeple
#

something forces them to live, and take another winged light, unless they warp to another skykid whose light can bring them to life without meaning

#

There is no absolute, all-consuming death without eden, but you are still brought out of that via rebirth

north fossil
#

Sky kids die when all wing light is lost. We can see that their light and flame is what fuels them, an example being how they become featureless and unable to fly when their flame runs out

#

Dying in eden can be viewed as a sort of heroic death, having accomplished your goal, your purpose, and being granted rebirth as a “reward”

thorn portal
#

The lights only charge the skykid cape not typically storing it in their body right?

hushed steeple
#

but what is heroic in being forced to die with no escape?

#

(':

thorn portal
#

I want to know the life source of sky kid 🤔🤭

north fossil
#

I think if we go off believing megan sent the sky kids on our quest, that it’s megan that forces us into taking the wing light when dying outside of eden
They wont allow us to die without fulfilling our role

thorn portal
#

This what i come up with earlier when watching elders cut scene

#

Elders need skykid light not just an ordinary light from candles, coz sky kid lights came from goodness of heart came great effort and sacrifice thats the key to activate all elders diamond thing, the vault elder cant stand she/he so weak and face sad too knowing the prophecy when eden gate is open. Vault elder sad face bec he/she knows sky kid gonna die and theres no escape from death in eden

hushed steeple
#

Purpose forces us to live

#

A skykid's only purpose is to return the light of the fallen

north fossil
#

It’s the mission we were sent on, and the only thing that grants us rebirth
We are forced to go on our mission, being revived forcefully if we die outside of eden

thorn portal
#

Elders lose light or someone or something sip the light from them, they need a light coming from sky kid coming from good heart coz all lights corrupted in realms, if theres a light remaining so why not elders use it to activate this diamond thing, u see how forest elder grab the light from sky kid coz he/she knows thats the key

hushed steeple
#

What even is winged light?

#

Skykids are the only creatures capable of using it, the krill attack only for the energy and disperse the winged light in doing so

north fossil
#

Its been said to be an imprint of light, some people see it as fractured parts of the prince, like a spirits memory fractures

hushed steeple
#

hmm

thorn portal
#

Now vault elders knows whats going to happened he/she looks so sad giving the diamond to skykid to activate and open eden gate, the prophecy is sky kid needs to sacrifice life for greater good

hushed steeple
#

then, those parts, when you get wing buffs from spirits, why do spirits have parts of the prince?

#

I mean, what you're saying does make sense @thorn portal

north fossil
#

I believe that to be more of a gameplay mechanic
Like how you get candles in eden, it wouldn’t make sense to recycle the people you save into currency

hushed steeple
#

very true, but they thank you, maybe it is a reward

#

rebirth isn't the reward, but ascended candles are what you are there to gain, so that you can get more winged light and continue to bring even more light back to eden

north fossil
#

Or you can interpret it differently, as the prince being a part of the sky kingdom as a whole
A kind prince who became a part of everything after death, a literal “he will live on in our hearts”

hushed steeple
#

indeed, since skykids need light for their diamond at their heart to glow

#

I see I see

#

And the diamond is a representation of him everywhere

thorn portal
#

This vault elder is not regretful or not guilty of anything he/she looks more than hidding something like he/she knows whats going to happen and really sad for that, elders are not the one who will fulfill the prophecy but the sky kid, and sky kid needs sacrife his or herself, i think elders becomes corrupted thats why they lose their light and strength, the prophecy forbids them to do anything but only to rely in what sky kid can do and fulfill

north fossil
#

Could be, as you see diamonds almost everywhere
If you look closely at the non seasonal outfits, even the sleeves on them have triangles
Angular shapes like diamonds and triangles are a constant throughout the sky kingdom

hushed steeple
#

I also thought the diamond placement on skykids could have to do with chakras but I'm not sure anymore

#

Yup

#

and on the shipwreck, the spires in valley, ruins in wasteland and orbit,

thorn portal
#

🤦‍♂️ and the prophecy is that im becoming crazy with this teaser and months from now will lose money coz of adv pass thats the true prophecy 😬🤭✌🏻

hushed steeple
#

and on the shipwreck, the spires in valley, ruins in wasteland and orbit,
the diamond/triangle really is a consistent motif in sky

#

which is nice, I love triangles haha

pine karma
#

was there a shield emote in early beta

#

im watching videos and they say "oh i lost my shield"

#

in eden

hushed steeple
#

Not sure about that one

#

maybe it was a joke of some kind

pine karma
#

and a shield icon appears

hushed steeple
#

oh?

pine karma
#

as well as several other emotes

hushed steeple
#

maybe there were

pale kestrel
#

Anybody have the concept stone mask pic?

hushed steeple
#

shield emotes

pine karma
#

since in the old version you used to lose emotes

hushed steeple
#

Hmm well, does anyone know about that spirit that was in the office during the anniversary celebration? It had a spear and long hair, you could relive it but not finish it

lethal stump
#

The spirits in office aren’t lore related, they’re self-inserts of the devs

thorn portal
#

Anybody have the concept stone mask pic?
@pale kestrelmight be because they know great battle will start so they need a much tougher mask 🤭 see some elders have stone mask like elder of isles

north fossil
#

Office doesn’t have any lore, its just an easter egg

hushed steeple
#

I assumed so

pine karma
#

or DOES IT

#

X FILES THEME

pale kestrel
#

No I'm looking for the picture

#

For reference

mild lark
#

or is it
VSAUCE MICHEAL HERE

hushed steeple
#

Thanks for confirming though

thorn portal
#

Yah someone should investigate in office maybe darkness and corruption starts there 😬🤭

pine karma
#

in the end it's all because of capitalism

hushed steeple
#

those "friendly" crabs

#

;w;

mild lark
#

One thing lore related at office it the size compared to our skykid

pine karma
#

sky kids are like the size of cats

mild lark
#

No

#

That's too small

lethal stump
#

Skykids are between 2’3 and 3’11

pine karma
#

aren't cats about 2 ft long

mild lark
#

That's a big cat

lethal stump
#

That’s a long cat

pine karma
#

is my cat enormous

mild lark
#

Yes

hushed steeple
#

that's a stretch

#

ahaha-

#

;w;

pine karma
#

skykids are dog sized

#

new take

mild lark
#

Yep dog sized is possible

hushed steeple
#

reminds me of vault elder?

lethal stump
#

Does anyone have any idea who this is?
Nope, it’s pretty debated here

thorn portal
hushed steeple
#

Maybe it’s like a priest to the Megabird or something

mild lark
#

Wow

hushed steeple
#

Hm yeah maybe

thorn portal
#

Can somone post photo of megabird in sky again pls

mild lark
#

Maybe an overpowered guard for the castle.. you know using the power diamond as a weapon

hushed steeple
#

Once I accidentally searched up mother bird instead of Megabird and I actually got some pretty interesting info

lethal stump
thorn portal
#

I wanna know the inspiration what bird is that

#

Hmm looks like phoenix

mild lark
#

That's is not a bird at all

#

More like buncha bird

thorn portal
#

Phoenix is immortal but must experience death inorder to rebirth again

uncut pier
#

hello! i am here to talk about the orrery in citadel and if they mean anything

junior crow
#

Why would valley people need an orrery

mild lark
#

What is orrery

primal ginkgo
#

Oh yeah, I'd be interested in Moon's topic, too! ^^

junior crow
#

Ain’t that more appropriate for vault

uncut pier
#

a clockwork model of the solar system, or of just the sun, earth, and moon

hushed steeple
#

the rings that rotate @mild lark

mild lark
#

Ooo

uncut pier
#

took that off google

thorn portal
#

Its a symbol of great civilization

#

Learning whats above us

mild lark
#

I thought that thing is called spinning mapless globe

primal ginkgo
#

Ooooh

uncut pier
#

so like could the orrery in citadel give a clue to how the sky universe works

thorn portal
#

The great knowledge and try interpreting the stars

hushed steeple
#

hmm

#

I thought that thing is called spinning mapless globe
@mild lark isn’t it an armillary sphere?

primal ginkgo
#

That is a good point!

hushed steeple
#

wait!

#

how many are there?

mild lark
#

@hushed steeple I don't know

thorn portal
#

Coz stars and constellation is how gods write

primal ginkgo
#

Rings, you mean? 0.0

uncut pier
#

@mild lark isn’t it an artillery sphere?
@hushed steeple armillary sphere

north fossil
#

Valley is seen as the height of the sky civilization, the most successful and lively time
It would make sense for a successful and thriving civilization to have some then

oak onyx
#

Aren't they almost biblically accurate angels

hushed steeple
#

maybe they correspond to the number of spirits in valley constellation, or the amount of realms

oak onyx
#

Just add some eyes and wings and put it on fire and Bam, biblically accurate angels heehoo

But anyway yes why would Valley have an Orrery

primal ginkgo
#

Oh heck, good point! I can go check, if we don't have it here somewhere ^^ @hushed steeple

hushed steeple
#

Thanks!

uncut pier
#

i say they are an orrery because their emote has orrery in name

primal ginkgo
#

Aww, you're very welcome!

thorn portal
#

Yes in valley u can see that great invention is well exposed

junior crow
#

Man and I thought valley was just some Olympic nutcase land

hushed steeple
#

Maybe the main larger one represents the ultimate gift and the others scattered represent each spirit? I wouldn't know

mild lark
#

Hmm weird because the structure is more of Asian inspired right?

#

I mean the temple

hushed steeple
#

hmm

lethal stump
#

It’s not an orrery, it’s an armillary sphere

uncut pier
#

is that so

#

oops

junior crow
#

Now I realize that valley is at the top of the mountain

mild lark
#

It changes the style of temple on valley until eden

hushed steeple
#

The emote is called :aorrery :

junior crow
#

Maybe citadel is an observatory

primal ginkgo
#

Oh, whoops!

#

Observatory, that'd be cool!

uncut pier
#

still do to with solar system

oak onyx
#

Inb4 we find the poop as one of the stickers here named poop

heady ember
#

I always imagined the citadel as a theater/observatory

mild lark
#

maybe it was spying at megabird

lethal stump
#

Orrery = mechanical construct of the solar system, spread out
Armillary sphere = measuring tool for the skies and land

thorn portal
#

But in all realms theres a statue representations of each elders right?

hushed steeple
#

They have the clearest view of Eden from the temple

lethal stump
#

The shrines at their temples ? yes

opal briar
#

What if sky is a island with Eden at its center?

junior crow
#

Orrery

mild lark
#

Confirmed .. king is spying at megabird this whole time

junior crow
#

Looks like an orrery to me

hushed steeple
uncut pier
#

maybe it is an orrery as its one big structure and not each sphere being its own

hushed steeple
#

I pictured the realms as circles surrounding Eden

And people will not build temple or shrine if god or elders still living among them is it right?

Arriving in Citadel now, I'm gonna count the rings and spheres ^^

As I said, the different parts might represent each realm

Thank you Jelly!!

You're very welcome~! ❤️ X3

The sphere in the centre is a 1:1 replica of an armillary sphere. Around it are 4 smaller versions with 2 rings each

I counted already

Yes

I mean I knew the amount of rings but not sure how many total

People before use shrine and statues to summon their gods to talk to them and ask guidance

I too counted something.. remember the gold thing at shipwreck ? Yeah there is 35 of them

The realms are supposed to represent stages of life so maybe that circle thing is related to that idea

Boats, they are everywhere

Oh wait

I've yet to count all the downed boats on sky tho

I was thinking about chakras earlier, and there are 7 chakras and including eden, 7 realms

#

It’s important to figure out if it’s a Coperinican (sun centred) armillary sphere or if it’s Ptolemaic (earth centred) as it would tell us more about the solar system and astronomy of sky

Oooooh @hushed steeple

why are valley butterfly blue not pink

There are butterflies in valley?

It's just the lighting effects

blue sun where

opal briar
#

Kinda wish the realms were big circles instead and of lines

lethal stump
#

I think the armillary sphere in the centre of citadel is Coperinican, it might be the centre of the solar system while the 4 other spheres are other planets

primal ginkgo
#

Is the amount of rings around the center sphere relevant or is it always the same number when it comes to armillary spheres?

hushed steeple
#

Have you not seen the blue sun?

no

Look in the valley flying race

Some rings have circles on them, planets?

its pretty yellow there

I'm not sure, I've never been there

if it's yellow the sun will look slightly different

okay so about the masks in the teaser art in #news

hushed steeple
#

like in the underground part of secret forest it's a magenta sun

#

It isn't lore-related I think

just lighting effects

This has been discussed before, Lizard

thats not a sun then we are in a cave

ohhhh that glitch

seen through clouds

thats a visual bug no?

hushed steeple

It is, as I said, but it is the sun being seen

uncut pier
#

not a sun?

rotund cipher
#

thats an android bug i think, i cant say

hushed steeple
#

No it is the sun, it is just showing through the clouds because of the lighting effects

lethal stump
#

the sun in that case would be the opposite colour, as the intended colour

rotund cipher
#

but skybox sun is yellow, assumingly if its projected through the clouds the color is just altered yeah

#

yup

lethal stump
#

that blue sun is a layering issue, it shifts the colours unnaturally

hushed steeple

it's odd, I see a majenta/red circle in the secret forest through the clouds too

#

i have question

primal ginkgo
#

Oh, ask away!

uncut pier
#

so like why does bricky know so much about armillary spheres

primal ginkgo
#

AH XD Good question!

#

Maybe Bricky built citadel

lethal stump
#

i read the wikipedia article

uncut pier
#

wikepedia is pretty handy

primal ginkgo
#

Ah, alrighty! Awesome, it's definitely coming in handy here! X3

#

About the armillary sphere in Citadel...
I wonder, would it be possible to determine which one of the spheres/smaller ring formations our planet (The one Sky takes part on) is represented by, based on the distance between the visible sun and our location?
I hope that makes sense ^^

lethal stump
#

Armillary spheres don’t represent planets

primal ginkgo
#

If Sky even takes place on one planet, what with the different realms

uncut pier
#

oh

primal ginkgo
#

Oh!

lethal stump
#

they represent measurements along the night sky for navigation

uncut pier
#

oh i thought people used stuff like polaris since it dont move

primal ginkgo
#

The four little ring formations around the main one, do they do that, too, then? 0.0

#

Like, the smaller "spheres" of rings

lethal stump
#

all of them measure something

#

go to the wiki article, i can’t explain it very well

primal ginkgo
#

AH No worries! ^^ You've already helped a lot, thank you very much!
I'll go do that~!

uncut pier
#

so you know how elders are stars that fell out the sky

lethal stump
#

yes

uncut pier
#

would there be more elders then

#

that we dont see

lethal stump
#

maybe

#

we only see 7 in the intro

uncut pier
#

i dont think this was in the intro doc but did elders and spirits exist at the same point in time

lethal stump
#

Yes

#

Skykids, however, did not exist alongside them

Bricky, you've counted the rings around the central citadel armillary sphere, right? ^^
Does it have the same amount as a typical armillary sphere?

delicate coral
#

I was thinking that for this season, maybe an interesting twist on the spirits is that they’re not aligned with the king like we first thought, but maybe they’re actually leading the opposition against him

#

That might explain why they’re facing away instead of towards us

cold steppe
#

one of the theories within the two shields theory is that the wasteland elder was originally for the king then turned against the king

delicate coral
#

Yeah, my current working theory is that the prophecy is the cause of that

willow shoal
#

prophecy?

lethal stump
#

Beware the prophecy...

delicate coral
#

I think prophecy predicted that the king would use his power and that a calamity would occur, causing the power diamond in eden to ‘splode

hushed steeple
#

how do you guys have working theories about the prophecy when it has not been released yet

delicate coral
#

And therefore the spirits who knew about the prophecy tried to oppose him

hushed steeple
#

did i miss something

lethal stump
#

guesswork !

delicate coral
#

No, I’m just predicting what the prophecy will be

#

Piecing it in with what we know of sky lore already

willow shoal
#

Season of Prophecy

delicate coral
#

For me it’s just a case of Occam’s razor, finding what seems to be the most simple and elegant solution with all the known facts

cold steppe
#

right now, it's just all speculation

hushed steeple
#

if ktjn posted beware the prophecy without the image teaser would it have the same effect? food for thought

delicate coral
#

Yes, I think it would

hushed steeple
#

but there is no evidence to base upon

cold steppe
#

we'll have more info that might confirm or deny the speculations when whatever the image/caption is referring to is released

delicate coral
#

The only solid lore information we have from the reveal is that there is a prophecy

#

The simple fact of there being a prophecy is enough to speculate on

hushed steeple
#

the image shows more

Please delete that, Johnny

Beware the Prophecy

delicate coral

Indeed I think there is

hushed steeple
#

two?

lethal stump
#

Yes, I definitely think there’s a connection, wren

#

Yeah, the 6th spirit and the quest giver

cold steppe
#

that is if there will be a 6th spirit

willow shoal
#

which is the next season guide?

sly kestrel
#

Lambdaw , there isn’t an answer for everything
The lore was made vague so we can make up our own story and our own lore without being told if we are right or wrong, there isn’t much of a concrete story in the first place so I don’t see what’s wrong with making theories even tho the new season isn’t out yet stickerHeart

cold steppe
#

I'm actually kind of interested in seeing if they'll continue the 6 spirit season. The 6 spirits used to correspond to the realms. One was hidden in each realm, and the questgiver stood at Home

willow shoal
#

yeah, i think so

cold steppe
#

now that TGC is trying different things, there's technically no reason to stick with 6 spirits other than tradition

lethal stump
#

Yeah, considering they’re having spirits in the same area most of the time

delicate coral
#

#lore-discussion-spoilers message that’s my current working theory, I didn’t get a whole lot of feedback on it when I posted it the other day since there was a lot of hype, anybody have thoughts on it?

lethal stump
#

Considering the 12–14 cosmetics we might get from the 5 spirits we see, maybe there won’t be a 6th spirit

cold steppe
#

could be possible

sly kestrel
#

Heyyy I read it when the hype was here
I thought it was interesting pWow

hushed steeple
#

that is the issue i had since i ever joined lore discussions, no theories are invalid, yet no theories require evidence. there is minimal objectivity, even then it is up for interpretations, when everything becomes relative there is no point anymore.

lethal stump
#

That’s the fun part

static spoke
#

But yes

cold steppe
#

we technically have evidence. We just might not be applying it "properly"

static spoke
#

Bricky has summed it up

willow shoal
#

so it’ll introduce a new place in a random realm, all of the constellation ancestors are here, just like the ark/sanc

lethal stump
#

You can say that megabird has a southern accent and no one can say you’re wrong

static spoke
#

Lore is fun

exotic shuttle
#

the main point is to have fun, first and foremost

sly kestrel
#

Plus the game was mainly towards the gaming experience and the fun of being with friends
Not much on the story

cold steppe
#

as a note, saying that megabird has a southern accent implies the existence of the American South in Sky

#

discuss

digital willow
#

I-

#

What?

cold steppe
#

in order for megabird to have a southern accent, there would have to be an origin for it

digital willow
#

How can we discuss such a blatent fact?

delicate coral
#

Accents don’t develop because of the physical location of their users

lethal stump
#

Accents can come about even if their earthling point of origin is not present, i’m just using « southern » for familiarity

lyric isle
#

@sly kestrel but to that, our lore brains said no

delicate coral
#

They develop due to the linguistics and speech styles in certain areas

cold steppe
#

yeah, I'm just saying that if it's called a southern accent, it technically implies the existence of the south

lethal stump
#

what else could i call it ?

willow shoal
#

megan was born in Los Angeles

cold steppe
#

like in fiction, can you call it a French braid if there's no France

delicate coral
#

Oh yeah ofc

digital willow
#

So this implies america exists in sky.

lethal stump
#

At that point the term has lost its attachment to its location, it’s become an adjective

cold steppe
#

we technically have the office

#

but that's also technically not lore

digital willow
#

This implies that the office is all the country's and states.

lethal stump
#

Office is technically in socal

digital willow
trail chasm
#

office is just Easter egg

lethal stump
#

i think it is anyways

sly kestrel

yes

digital willow
willow shoal
#

||office is a great party place for skykids||

hushed steeple
#

problem is when everything is undecidable or can not be proven or disproven, there is many stories. i like to believe you all here have a favored headcannon, thus there is one favored narrative, but all are equal in doubt, so lore becomes a battle of ideology rather than deciphering the truth/story of the game.

sly kestrel
#

They didn’t want that

cold steppe
#

the issue is that there really isn't any specific storyline

lethal stump
#

it was never meant to decipher the truth/story

lyric isle
#

How tall do you estimate descendants to be, ||based loosely off the office||?

hushed steeple
#

isnt that lore?

cold steppe
#

the devs left it purposely open for interpretation

lethal stump
#

it was meant to give us threads and let us tie them together !

hushed steeple
#

the backstory of the game

digital willow
#

Can we discuss the missing facepalm emote?

cold steppe
#

we can create the story for ourselves

sly kestrel
#

Lambdaw this chat was meant to discuss our crazy imaginations and theories, not uncover a hidden story tgc created

cold steppe
#

where's the skykid height chart

lethal stump
#

No need for spoilers
Skykids relative to office is canon, we’re between 2’3 and 3’11

lyric isle
#

Thought so
around a metre

lethal stump
#

hère you are, wren

hushed steeple
#

we can create the story for ourselves
so there is no backstory then

There’s a base story yes, of course
But our job is to fill in the gaps of the base story with our imagination

#

#

maybe the final season reward is the prince mask, which make your fire never end or corrupted.

Presumably spirits are something like average height

digital willow
#

The facepalm emote has been missing since the early days and hasn't come back for 2 years.

cold steppe
#

tbh, TGC probably took it out because it can be seen as rude by other players

trail chasm
#

but there is angry emote

facepalm?

cold steppe
#

moth doing literally anything? facepalm emote
there's already issues with players being rude to others

omg

sly kestrel

In my PERSONAL opinion I prolly would’ve enjoyed it if they stuck to making one single concrete story for us to figure out
BUT
I understand why they chose not to do it and I don’t have a problem with it at all stickerHeart

What did that spirit look like?

willow shoal
#

puberty psychology

hushed steeple
#

why do we discuss lore here then if it is not for collaboration because each presentation is equally valid. i thought accepting a headcanon as ones own meant that the viewer sees the author's interpretation as a likely representation of the grand narrative. but what makes such interpretation preferred or likely from the viewer's perspective when all of which said is undecidable, i think it is ironic that the audience of a orchestra in silence realizes that themselves is the conductor

#

am i going too deep?

sly kestrel
#

a lot of kids actually love the vagueness
They love the idea of making their story and letting the imagination run wild without being told their thoughts are wrong
Not everyone loves lore like us, and if it does seem pointless to you to do random theorizing that “iSNT cANoN” well.....u don’t rlly have to b here
It’s jus a fun channel

digital willow
#

The facepalm spirit look's like the quest giver but with less hair.

delicate coral
#

Personally I think that it’s good for theories to be subject to some level of scrutiny

#

In the end the theory will either end up being accepted as not really valid, or it will lead to changes forming a stronger theory

lethal stump
#

That’s what the canon is for

willow shoal
#

discuss the lore, explore the mysteries, then meet the memories

lethal stump
#

But, there’s just enough and less of canon that lots of varying theories have merit

#

there's a few theories compiled in one of the docs in the pins here

willow shoal
#

this channel needs more 📍textspFIRE

hushed steeple
#

so basically we abuse the search filters to only find theories. so like if anyone post a full theory instead of just discussion snippets, them would just append the theory with a line of salt, then you can just search in : #lore-discussion-spoilers <salt> to find all the full theories

mild lark
hushed steeple
#

the caveat for this method though is abuse of the salt

eternal hearth
#

A lot of salt

hushed steeple
#

We have to agree on a salt line though, something like "[A theory about sky]"

lethal stump
#

or just

#

salt

#

just put salt at the end

pure root
#

i come back to salt

You might need to add smthg like {salt} so it doesnt mix with other convos that include salt ?

I think it will be difficult to standardize

#

and it won't apply retroactively, which is where most of the theories are from

Are there possible cosmic manta subspecies?

cold steppe
#

it's a good idea! I'm just not sure how it would actually work

#

as a lot of people come here and slap theories and leave

lethal stump
#

Well, there’s the big multi-winged one and little baby multi-winged versions, then the two winged versions

hushed steeple
#

it could only work if

  1. a mod pins the format
  2. discord implements exact matching
  3. people actually read the pins before presenting their theory
    i dont know which is the most likely to happen if not impossible
#

i myself forget the pins 99% of the time

#

you can work around the issue of people coming and use a non-standard format by reformatting their post with credits

Considering valley is the sort of “downtown” of the sky kingdom, it would make sense to have housing of sorts

It’s the capital !

Im too distracted by how much i admire valley and its architecture to properly participate in theories right now, this is tragic

Forest seems to be very industrial focused, so perhaps it had something to do with there

My brain say It's from golden Wasteland
But I think It's not

what if it was isle?

mild lark

You need a furnace.. a heavy smelter and casting plate

i’m joking isle is pretty empty nothing but boats

Forest seems to have a mining industry, could be extracted there and processed in GW

@tawdry pawn /with terrible working conditions i mean they died and there were no insurances

in the concepts, forest has been mining-centric for a while development-wise

north fossil
#

Gold industry is basically environment destroying industry
Yup, and we see it happening
Progressing through forest you see it deteriorating more and becoming more industrial, and wasteland is a barren battlefield full of pipes and rubble

winter jacinth

i mean there could of been we dont know

@tawdry pawn /with terrible working conditions i mean they died and there were no insurances
@gilded fossil yeah when you take a deep look into the story of the crying spirit it’s actually a little sad

Thank god they can create diamond or else a bigger mine will be constructed

what bout the pirairy?

Prairie spirits we can see them collecting lights, the one in the quests and store them in jars

Prairie is almost like a butterfly breeding ground

/wait are you in the game broke whale? how bout checking the citadel if the buildings there has gold tops
@gilded fossil
yup , it has gold tops , three buildings are broken and doesn't have one though

north fossil

The power diamonds all seem to have been manufactured in forest
Prairie and isle seem to be the most “innocent” of all the places

gilded fossil
#

/and bells!

mild lark
#

And big temple

tawdry pawn
#

They got trapped in a cave and while trying to mine their way out, two miners were crushed. The other one was killed by plants and the crying spirit was left to slowly perish. The stones in the middle of the ground (I believe that’s where they are correct me if i’m wrong) are probably graves.

lyric isle
#

Yes, it

@winter jacinth /classs division

north fossil

The vault gets progressively more dream-like, it seems disconnected from the rest of the kingdom in a way
Protected maybe, as it is the vault of knowledge. It could have been barred from the outside commotion

mild lark
#

I seem like gold aren't as important as irl

cyan bobcat
#

Yeah, I mean if gold emitted light, then umm

mild lark
#

People go to war because of gold.. but in sky people go to war possibly because of energy

Common currency Wax candles?

Yeah Light

Wax is for skykid tbh

we don’t know what they used as currency

Game mechs

personally, since they had metal, i’d imagine they used coins like we do

Sky would receive lots of attention if game theory covered it

The game would absolutely explode with popularity
It’d be infested with moths

@cyan bobcat sky kingdom probably have trading from other territory as well

What is Isle? I feel like it’s when people first came to the sky kingdom but i’m not completely sure

gilded fossil
#

/isle feels like those sea communities

#

/small, didnt have currency

#

/they just fish and pray

cyan bobcat
#

@mild lark I guess they do, I'm curious to Valley, cause it seems like a place where they could earn alot for the experiments..

lyric isle
#

There is clearly pilgrimage to it.
Why, though? What significance might it have had?

lethal stump
#

Ohh I have a theory about pilgrimages in sky actually !

north fossil
#

The way the game is presented, each area works as a stage in the rise of civilization, isle being the first settlement
It has the least amount of spirits and is overall a pretty abandoned beach area

tawdry pawn
#

So Prairie is when civilization started rising , and Forest is when people started mining and stuff, while Valley is the peak of civilization

cyan bobcat
#

Hmm, They catch light in prairie/butterfly breeding grounds, store them in jars and send them away by boats

lyric isle
#

@lethal stump tell

lethal stump
#

So, the way my theory goes, when the elders fell with the flame, they went on a journey to reach the eden mountain. At the time, this trek took a while since the ancestors’ civilizations hadn’t developed to the point of roads and such.
Due to the significance of this journey from isle to eden (it’s considered the founding of the kingdom), every ten years, groups of people would take the same journey on more or less the same route, starting at isle and walking all the way to the summit of eden. considering the godlike worship of the elders, this was usually done by monks and priests rather than your average everyday ancestor

this is just a fun headcanon of mine tho

lyric isle
#

So the Pointing Pilgrim is probably some sort of devout
