Tencent and Netease are chinese giants that basically proxy external services, I don't know how to explain it, you can think of them as publishers yeah

#

that said, they basically can control the majority of features of the proxied service within mainland

#

~~MC in mainland is quite different than International~~

#

anyways this is getting off topic

solar relic Oct 16, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

this server is targeted at the global version so it may be confusing to bring in netease server content

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

I think Netease wouldn't bother to change the story, rather I think they do not took the "ambiguious storyline that faciliate projections of intepretation" idea as seriously because they are in it for the ||money||, so you get to see major details revealed in notes tlike this

||With Sky, we are looking to make an intriguing, ever-expanding world above the clouds, that is filled with light and darkness. As a ‘Descendant,’ your goal is to collaborate with other players to unearth the buried mysteries in the kingdom. Only by working together can you progress in the world. Using the power of light and candles, you and others need to spread light across the kingdom as you encounter a cast of characters and creatures who may be able to help you along the way.|| ——thatgamecompany November 16, 2017

To move on with the scientific name thijg we need to decide a few things.....

bitter shale Oct 16, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

sorry pyre-

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

Its ok

#

Now comes the important part

#

We need to do a series of votes to decide the class of the species

#

Ok so mammals r A, birds r B, fish r C, reptiles r D, invertebrates r E, and amphibians r F

#

Mantas

#

Crabs

#

Krill

#

Whales

#

Jellies

#

Butterflies

#

Vote plz

bitter shale Oct 16, 2020, 4:20 PM

idk what species jellies are

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:25 PM

Okokok imma fix stuff

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:25 PM

i dont think we can necessarily categorize these creatures the way we do earth ones

undone harbor Oct 16, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

crabs are uhhh
Crustacean

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

My plan is to leave everything as it is from kingdom to family

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

let’s start by identifying commonalities and differences among the life forms we see, and from there we can categorize

inland narwhal Oct 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

The jellyfish, whales and mantas fly in Sky

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

Wait so we ditch the taxonomical thingies?

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

well like blue said
let’s start from scratch

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

Ok then

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

i think there are some basic yes/no questions we can create already to make some categories

#

can it fly ?

does it attack ?

is it light ?

is it dark ?

is it neutral ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Fly and attack r prob not.... u know.... good ideas

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

elaborate ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:31 PM

#

Like insects and birds both fly but they r in very different categories.... i was thinking making our biggest category brightness

#

Light neurtal dark

spring blaze Oct 16, 2020, 4:31 PM

#

i think fly and attack are eligible traits

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

Then we would go pure and symbiosis for the light and pure and corrupted for the dark

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

these are the broad strokes rn, pyre

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

Yes

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

we’re making big categories, from which we’ll make smaller and smaller ones later

#

and as a broad stroke, clarifying if something can/can’t fly is a good idea

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

Oh right srry overextended

#

Ok then

#

Now that we have answered those...

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

we will get to your analogy, the difference between birds and butterflies for example, as we categorize further

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

Ok then

#

Wut will be the largest category? The sky equivalent of a kingdom?

#

Ish

#

I say brightness

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

hm
considering the systems in sky, maybe Light, Dark, and Neutral

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

Yes

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

A quick run-down would be

Light
Mantas (all types), Butterflies, Jellies, Mushrooms

Dark
Dark Dragons, Crabs, Darkness

Neutral
Whale, Skykids (maybe Elders and Ancestors too ?)

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

Yes

#

Now lets divide them more

#

Wait the whale is light

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:39 PM

#

but it harms us

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:40 PM

#

I can not believe i am saying this but game mech prob look at its color scheme

#

Plus it ascends with us in eden

#

Bricky u there?

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:42 PM

#

im confused, elaborate ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:43 PM

#

In eden only light creatures ascend to orbit and the whale comes too...

#

Ok so there r 2 types of light creatures

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

but yet we’re made of both darkness and light and we ascend

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

The ones that r transparent and the ones that r not

#

but yet we’re made of both darkness and light and we ascend
@lethal stump oh...

#

Hmmm

#

But brick the color scheme

#

Plus we prob only ascend cuz we r the trigger for Ascension

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

the whale isn’t white & yellow

#

it’s like a greyish blue and white colour

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

Ok then the whale is neutral

#

Ok then

#

does the whale harm crabs?

#

There r 2 types ofight creatures, the translucent type and the opaque type

#

there is actually only one way to test it

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

we don’t see the whale interact with other beings, really

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

but we can make it interact

livid valley Oct 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

good luck

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

Grab a crab and stick it in front of a whale? It isnt possible... its too far

livid valley Oct 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

yep too far

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

Guys.........

#

Bacc to naming

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

this is important to naming too, pyre

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

So opaque and translucent creatures

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

one can never be too thorough with science

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

But... like we agreed that whales r neutral.... and there is no way to test it on crabs...

#

Sooooo

#

opaque and translucent creatures do we agree

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

maybe later on

#

but not yet

#

i think flight and hostility are above translucency

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

Ok wut now?

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

lemme outline how i see it

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

you can do it, you need a friend with piggyback

#

can*

#

Wut?

#

Oh.

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

[Brightness]
[Flight]
[Hostility]
[Translucency]
[Other, such as number of appendages & such]

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

you can do it, you need a friend with piggyback
@hushed steeple plz test it out then vid plz

#

if you hold a crab while being on a piggyback ride, you won't drop the crab unless you go through a portal

#

[Brightness]
[Flight]
[Hostility]
[Translucency]
[Other, such as number of appendages & such]
@lethal stump ok..... but hostility is almost the same as brightness

#

ideally you would do this at the end of valley

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

dark plants don’t attack you

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

They do...

#

and have your friend fly fast enough and you drop the crab on the whale

sturdy moon Oct 16, 2020, 4:53 PM

Ok try it and then come back plz

#

Lambda

#

~~I have no friends, also I took a break from the game~~

#

Well dark animals attack light animals or neutral animals and thats canon

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:54 PM

this isn’t only for animals

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

No im sorry dark creatures

#

[Brightness]
[Flight]
[Hostility]
[Translucency]
[Other, such as number of appendages & such]
what is this for brick?

#

We r revolutionizing sky creature classification

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

increasingly precise categories for organizing sky creatures

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

Yes

#

Dark creatures try to take light we r just too smart for plants

#

Spirits and light creatures all die from dark plants

#

hostility is kind of subjective but ok

#

And its like the same as brightness almost

#

Lets take out hostility...

#

That leaves flying

#

I mean brightness is ok because it can be an absolute measure, eg. luminosity
but I don't know about hostility

#

Yesyes

#

Plus if its light its safe and if its dark it isnt

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

[Brightness]
[Sentience]
[Flight]
[Translucency]
[Other, such as number of appendages & such]

#

how about this

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

No not sentience

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

how else are we gonna separate animals from plants ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

We r closer to chimpanzees than we r to dolphins sentience just isnt right

#

Most animals arent sentient

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

they can’t think ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

That isnt sentience

#

Only humans r sentiment on earth i think

#

I think you mean sapience, sentient is just the ability or rather capability to sense/respond to its world

#

So the plant thing, i was thinking before we get to brightness we do animals,plants and fungi

#

we are self-conscious but all creatures are to a degree conscious

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

In dictionary definitions, sentience is defined as “able to experience feelings,” “responsive to or conscious of sense impressions,” and “capable of feeling things through physical senses.” Sentient beings experience wanted emotions like happiness, joy, and gratitude, and unwanted emotions in the form of pain
many animals are sentient

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

Ok folks

#

So kingdom, brightness, then other stuff

#

I think you can categorize plants in its own kingdom

#

and fungi has to have its own kingdom

#

Yes... there r 3 kingdoms in sky animals plants and fungi

#

Thats why they r kingdoms

#

After this we devide light into transparent and opaque and darkness into dark and corrupted

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

~~it all in the vault, probably. what if the scholars in the vault actually reanimated the spirits of the mantas, then something terrible happened when they tried it on the dark creatures~~

#

But more on topic, animals and plants are divided by kingdom in real life. I believe the technical definition involves plants usually photosynthesizing and animals usually being able to move on their own but science is weird and coral is an animal so

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

the human capability to categorize is shaky at best

#

i mean, we can assume that the grass and such is a human’s definition of a plant considering it’s green, implying chlorophyll

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Red pandas are an excellent example of this. When you don’t have DNA samples to work from (and in red pandas’ case, even when you do) it’s really easy to get a classification wrong

#

then you have the portuguese man o' war.. how do you even..

#

I wonder what dark plants feed off of, since they clearly don’t photosynthesize. I might go look into moss and cave plants in a minute to get a vague idea

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

let’s do our best
as i say, this is a game with flying pyromaniac children in the clouds reviving ancient gods
we’ll make as much sense as possible from a game like that SkyDance

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

we have to look at it from the perspective of sky, I mean one of the most definite category is flight, it is either you fly or you don't, there is nothing in-between

#

Gliding w/o flapping wings is kind of in between but isn’t really a thing in Sky so I digress

#

Re: flying squirrels do not fly

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

we do flap

#

just not like regular flying creatures

#

heck we don’t even have wings per se, we have capes

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

I know, that’s why I’m saying it’s not really relevant in the world of Sky

short owl Oct 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

I would argue we are inbetween. Birds fly indeffinately. Krill float indefinitely. Kids do not. And then the twins just jump big.

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

Skids are strange beings with their flight physics

#

Back onto dark plants’ food: the size and shape of the plants implies photosynthesis, or at least genetic roots in such a thing, though the shape of the leaves could be used nowadays in order to collect carbon (which is used to ‘build’ the plant). Basically what I’m saying is dark plants probably used to photosynthesize, but they adapted to live in the dark and probably get most of their nutrients from water now.

#

but how do they grow in the prescence of perpertual sunlight with no water around?

#

like the prairies bells

#

I don’t know man I just work here

But actually, that isn’t something I considered. The sunlight probably hinders their growth but isn’t deadly (I say based on my real life plants that do not like sunlight). I don’t know as far as water, though…

#

I mean techncally since sky is literally in the clouds they can catch water vapor from the atmosphere likke fog nets/harps

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

a thonk: what if they do eat light, and in the dark places we see them in they’ve already eaten all the light around them ?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

yeah I am just going to go with that

short owl Oct 16, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

What if the shape serves a completely different purpose from gathering sunlight? For example, if the plants have a symbiotic relationship with something that likes to hide, maybe the leaves act as shelter for an animal known to bury light

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

That sounds very Sky-science-y by which I mean makes complete sense in the game. Though, how would they continue to get nutrients?

#

pThink

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

OOO I JUST GOT A BRAINCELL MOMENT

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

And Null, the shape would probably evolve before a symbiotic relationship, but that’s definitely possible

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

they suck it from the ground !
we even see in dark plants that there’s bits of light travelling from the base to the tips, meaning their root system goes deep enough to suck light from the ground
speaking of roots, they might be so prolific that it can explain why plants regrow so quickly

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

That sounds very Sky-science-y by which I mean makes complete sense in the game. Though, how would they continue to get nutrients?
I assume their nutrient is light, so they siphon it up through the stems, maybe this is why the prairies prayer bells were drained of coloration?

#

wait brick just said what i said

#

That makes sense, especially since Sky is a bunch of floating islands and so if their roots reach down below then boom, infinite light food

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:38 PM

Also weird thing: we know that mantas can get stuck in the plants. What if plants don't eat manta, but rather hide them from Krill and rain? The only reason mantas got stuck in the forest was the stress they were under when they last slipped under to hide (blame ancestors)

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

and it could also explain why the manta we free isn’t dead yet, the roots haven’t properly gotten to it so we’re just burning the leaves/mouth that holds it there

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

I definitely don’t think the plants eat the mantas. If they did, like the Venus fly trap, the plants would literally commit self die every time we landed on them. It makes sense if the mantas are looking for shelter and just get stuck

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

RIP lambda

#

arguably we aren’t creatures of light, so we might not trigger the plants to commit self die

short owl Oct 16, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

And if the plants ate light, why would they move away from our candles?

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

can you elaborate?

lethal stump Oct 16, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

because light ≠ fire

#

irl plants eat light, they still burn

short owl Oct 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

I wonder if they could also be turning off, like carnivorous plants often do

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

Venus fly traps commit self die if anything touches them

#

what is self die?

#

You die, but you do it by your own hand, because I won’t say the actual word because ✨trauma✨

short owl Oct 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Carnivorous plants often grow feeding heads or tubes or whatever and consume whatever goes in... To a point. Once they eat enough, their once deadly feeding body kinda stops

broken basin Oct 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

I think they're plants that feed on light?

#

~~Like irl plants~~
But much more brutally

hushed steeple Oct 16, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

perhaps they feed on light on small quantities, but, when exposed to a higher amount of light than what they can handle (like us shoving a candle on them), they wilt

#

do you think the leaves of dark plants secrete a liquid that is adhesive to light, but the secreted liquid is non-adhesive and partially low viscosity for anything else? this would be useful from an evolutionary standpoint to filter their food?

#

hence mantas get stuck

Imprints of light are remnants or possibly memory fragments from the child of light who is possibly the prince of the kingdom of sky.
Taking the imprints into orbit serves a specific purpose we aren't quite aware of yet

alright. if you give imprints to the statues, they become shiny children who join the stars at the end. so thats what i get the impression of

yes, but I would like to know how it get there in terms of lore, it is not like it just magically teleports to its original position, I mean it does but like I want to believe in an interpretation that ties it together

#

mainly because I have to consider this due to underlying theories that include game mechanics

hushed steeple Oct 17, 2020, 12:10 AM

Oh my theory is the wl is dead and gone and the shiny boi, sensing that it's creation is gone, makes a new one for u to collect

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 12:41 AM

a) no need to ping

Ok i get c and lets go with b then

#

Brightness, kingdom, here is prob where class comes in...

#

so if I am understanding correctly, the hierarchy is in the order of common attribute/characteristics

#

Oh wait

#

Flight is prob unnecessary too cuz all light creatures fly and krill can prob only fly cuz they consume light

oh, I thought we are classifying all fauna/flora in sky, not just those pertaining to light?

#

Oh yes we r thinking abt wut comes after hrighness and kingdom and bricky said flight

#

We r classifying all organisms

#

I think flight is a good indicator, because it separates at the genus level, then succeeding classification would be interspecies differences like manta appendages and variations

No but that kinda flight comes after transparency

the difference in phylogeny between plants and animals comes down basically to plants developing chloroplasts and sustaining photosynthesis meant they had no need to be mobile as they make their own food and retrieve energy/nutrients I think, don't quote me on that, i have absolutely no knwoledge in biology

#

I rlly dont think flight is a thing...

@cobalt garnet sorry for the ping, but i thought this was really interesting. What if the elders were each harnessing different light sources? Since either light or darkness seem to power everything in Sky, they must have been utilizing this. (Unless they’re evil/prefer darkness) there’s also (im not sure if this is canon) stories about how the krill used to be trapped/chained, but they broke free and escaped, why else would they be hostile? Because they are bitter about something but w h a t exactly

that krill story is indeed fandom

it’s not canonical

yes, @clear lynx it’s the king

mortal viper Oct 17, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

well, if we go by earth rules:

plants make photosynthesis (meaning they usualy don't need to eat other beings for nutrients) and cannot move on their own, they have a cellular wall made of lignin and that's mostly it
fungi DO NOT make photosynthesis, they actualy secrete substances outside of their cells that digest what's around them (hence they being mostly decompositors), they also have cellular wall, but theirs is made of quitine (same substance you find in insects that make them crunchy), and they also can't move on their own
animals DO NOT make photosynthesis (let's ignore the weird sea slug that steal it's abilities from plants and algae) so they need to eat and their cells do not have cellular walls. animals are usualy able to move on their own, but not aways.

yes, @clear lynx it’s the king
@lethal stump far as I was investigating, he’s name it’s alef

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

the king’s name is either alef or resh

#

depending on your interpretation

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

And... why the statues are only on GW and Eden?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:32 AM

Is king dead?

Or he’s kinda like a god?

god is megabird

the king is beyond saving

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:34 AM

megabird is a more godlike figure

Whos the corrupted elder?

eden elder

#

megan isn’t an elder

#

The lore says there’s a elder whom was once corrupted

#

Megan?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

Megabird is not an elder

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

I thought king was the corrupted one

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:35 AM

it doesn’t specify corrupted, only beyond saving

#

Hm...

#

also

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

Are we sons of alef?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

the king plays an active role in the story of sky but maybe not in the way you may think
he's not there in the same way as the elders you see in the cutscenes
he is an important figure in the current lore of sky
he's just not there the same way as the spirits you see in the individual realms are
there are also subtle designs and motifs referencing the king in the world too. iirc some of the latticework in valley/dusk temple has a design pattern reminiscent of the kings head
could be worth discussing some of the meanings the diamond shapes may have and maybe what connections that symbolizes

#

we could be, up to you

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

Ay the very start of SKY

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:37 AM

And in that story

#

It says “return the stars back home my son”

#

Or

#

Something like that

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:38 AM

#

But darkness came, and the stars fell...
Together, the fallen stars made a new home in the clouds.
If only they had listened...

Sorry my English it’s not the best, m tryin my best

Krills eat and consumes light

mortal viper Oct 17, 2020, 1:44 AM

#

it's ok dear
and yes it apears to be so

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:44 AM

#

Ok

#

Then

#

Darkness it’s not actually coming from krills

#

Darkness consumes light and whit that produces krill

#

Kinda like “light doesn’t exist whit out darkness” and the same for darkness

#

There’s a elder temple destroyed at the second place in GW

#

That’s makes me think

#

It’s the actual elder of GW the same as wen darkness was no there?

#

Because at GW there’s a TON of statues of king

#

And as I been seein in the murals, GW did built 5 boats or arks to scape from the darkness

#

3 of them were citadels and 2 where militar boats

#

Were*

#

There’s a statue of king in forgotten ark

#

Same as the militar boat in the shipyard at GW

#

There’s a destroyed ark at eye of Eden.

#

And little boats, (kinda the emergency evac ones) at the entrance of Eden.

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:51 AM

#

what murals ?

thin dirge Oct 17, 2020, 1:51 AM

Well, an important hint is probably at the orange light mural in Cave of Prophecies

That's concepts

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

It can just be an idea btw

#

I know

#

But I like the concept

#

All murals have 3 huge citadel arks feein away from GW

#

So, at the beginning of the game

#

Says that all 6 realms found the Eden no?

#

Im I wrong?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:54 AM

#

found the eden ? i don’t believe so

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

They made Eden

#

Or something like that

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

it doesn’t say anything like that

#

But darkness came, and the stars fell...
Together, the fallen stars made a new home in the clouds.
If only they had listened...
A long time has passed. Now, I call to you. 
Wake up, child.  Bring our lost stars home.```

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

The fallen stars made a new home in the clouds

#

That’s a meaning for eden

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

as that line is said, the temples appear, not only eden

#

they founded the whole kingdom not merely eden

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

They made Eden as kind of a safe place from darkness no?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

maybe
i cant confirm nor deny that

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:57 AM

If that’s a yes

it’s not

there’s no yes or no’s in sky lore

Can we talk about how the skykids have heartbeats?

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

Did the fallen stars tried to return Eden whit the arks?

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

perhaps

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

And failed in the atemp

lethal stump Oct 17, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

although we do see a star fall to eden

#

which to me says that they could access it easily

#

and also considering the eden castle, i think it’s where the eden elder (prince/king) lived

clear lynx Oct 17, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

MAy be the eye of Eden was the entrance to that sanctuary

#

But darkness did corrupt the eye.

#

Cuz darkness is all around vault. But not inside of it thanks to the warrior elder.

And get to go Eden

#

But if not being at Eden, no reborn at all

#

I thing there’s something werid we all missing about eye of Eden.

#

And I still can’t figúrate what it is.

#

Cuz if the eye take us to a sanctuary in the clouds

#

The eye isn’t darkness at all.

#

Can we talk about how the skykids have heartbeats?

It might be the little blue spirit thing inside of us.

When the spirits all died in the trials shiny boi came along and did it all that much we know.... so i was thinking shinyboi is prob got past the trials and has all the wisdoms and now has emense power, and he is like king arthur and the prophets believe he is fit to rule the kingdom... so he travels the realms and leaves imprints
everywhere like mini landmarks... which r the wl things so... then he gets coronated and becomes the king and then gets corrupted... the king is now a monster but there still is a part of him that is kind and he destroys himself and that kills him and destroyed eden... now the prince or king is huddled up in orbit and in self exile regretting everything he did... he is the shinyboi that we hug and he opens up the road to Ascension for the brave souls that have died saving the statues in eden

#

I have a theory of the king killing the prophets after they give the prophecy since in the beginning when you first get the game it talks about a prophecy and how they didn’t listen to it so that’s why their demise happened. It’s just speculation but it could be possible I’ll have to look for more context clues later if I can

#

I’m sure it’ll be fine! ..... Right?

hushed steeple Oct 17, 2020, 3:38 AM

#

Ooooh maybe the prophets stopped giving trial passers powers outside the trials after the shinyboi messed everything up and now they think its too dangerous

earnest steeple Oct 17, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

Maybe they stopped giving the power because they knew the king would most likely abuse the power or had abused the power of the trials

hushed steeple Oct 17, 2020, 3:45 AM

Prob had abused cuz the king is in the past cuz we dont see him alive in sky only propaganda

@dull fox spider god? U sure it isnt the scarab god?

There is no turtle god

There is a lion god but sop's lion is from asia

My take is connection to megan and mimicking the real halos around spirits n stuff

solar relic Oct 17, 2020, 6:32 AM

#

yeah that's why i'm not saying it

#

hmmm

#

yeah it might signify a blessing on the guide given by megan

hushed steeple Oct 17, 2020, 6:35 AM

#

See... the qg is not one of the original teachers at the prophecy school so most likely he joined when the prophets were reopening the school for skids, so maybe this second generation of spirits thought that a halo was a sign of holiness.... like the cross

The prophets I think are trying to train them to help with the stuff they’ll have to do on the island. I think the prophets heard about what happened to the previous inhabitants (the elders, a much larger group of people in stature than the spirits who inhabit it) and were trying to prepare the colonists for the things that are going on there

@dull fox prob not.... its prob like an agent academy/sunday school..... after all, ppl die in the trials to prepare for wut? Yawning and hide and seek? No... they had a harder mission

Idk wut the harder mission was tho... my guess is the trials were like the sword of arthur and the guy to do the trials became the king...

U could be right too

dull fox Oct 17, 2020, 7:31 AM

#

I don’t think that the villagers themselves died doing the trials because skykids are different then the villagers. We can fly. We are powered by flames. The water trial kills us because the water puts out our flames. Villagers probably just get a little bit of hypothermia when they fell into the water which would’ve been the reason you don’t want to do that.

inland zenith Oct 17, 2020, 7:34 AM

#

Who are the elders?

dull fox Oct 17, 2020, 7:37 AM

#

I believe that the elders are the original inhabitants of the world of Sky. Others will probably disagree, but I think that there were two different peoples who populated the world of sky. The elders and their species, a group of very large, very powerful people who harnessed light energy and fought a war which eradicated themselves, and the spirits we encounter regularly, who are a group of colonists who came after the elders species had destroyed itself. They populated the world of sky until some unknown catastrophe caused them to die out too.

hardy vector Oct 17, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

Krill are actually whales

#

Actually

#

No

#

I said what I said

#

Krill are found in Wasteland and Eden

#

Whales have 2 varieties: the light whales; found in Forest’s Secret Area, Sanctuary, and Orbit, where as there is a single dark whale found in the area prior to Wasteland

#

Now in sanctuary is there is a progression with completing the quest

#

Babi Mantas->Big Boi Mantas-> Super Manta->WHITE WHALE CALL ME AHAB

#

This could indicate that a whale is a rare progression of the manta

#

Hence why there aren’t too many in the world of sky

#

~~Actually there’s about 4 many but I’m not counting :3c~~

#

dark whale in a corrupted zone? Heading further into the golden wasteland? Maybe it’s going there to BECOME A KRILL

#

White Whales ONLY appear in places of high natural light energy like orbit or Sanctuary an area that is “An Escape From Civilisation”

#

The only dark whale is EVIL AND GONNA BECOME A KRILL TO EAT OUR LIIIIGHT OoooOooOooo

ah so what you're saying is that the whales are "defected" manta evolutions while krill are corrupted whales, so dark whales?

hardy vector Oct 17, 2020, 9:20 AM

#

Exactly!

#

Would explain the ratio of the papa mantas to whales

#

Also mantas like the light right?

#

Would pre cataclysm Eden have been light central

?

solar relic Oct 17, 2020, 9:24 AM

for now i've thought of eden as where many light creatures were sent to die in order to power the big eden diamond

don’t light deficient creatures in sky seek other sources of light - skykid or otherwise?

What if the krill are light drained Whales/Papa Mantas

If they have any sort of similar bone structure to krill then that would be a pretty solid indicator

But that’s just a theory

solar relic Oct 17, 2020, 9:31 AM

which bones are you talking about?

#

my friend blue has some krill anatomy analysis here but the thing is, krill are intangible since they can pass through walls and the ground so they probably don't have bones

krills and dark whales? or are they the same to you

hardy vector Oct 17, 2020, 9:42 AM

Hard to brain but yes. I think that whales are definitely a defector of the elder mantas

solar relic Oct 17, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

so the other realms aren't affected by the 'event'? (whatever it is)

hardy vector Oct 17, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

And the krills miiiight be an even more corrupted whale that has no light and that is why whales can drain your light but krills will actively search for light to eat

#

Obviously all of sky civilization was effected by the cataclysm but Eden GW Forest are like

#

Ground zero?

It be like the sky equivalent of Chernobyl’s radiation
