#

I actually had this idea (theory? Idk) that the elders all tried to protect their respective realms when the Eden diamond exploded

Vault being destroyed since its right next to Eden but luckily they have the projectors which they (or the elder, what I've heard somehow survived) activated to make the dream like realm we have now

Wasteland I imagined they were having a war/battle during the explosion and it took out most/all of the troops and left the elder weak

Valley possibly less destruction but I like to think the explosion chased the buildings to crumble and fall as well as the valley elders losing their arms (thus the prosthetics they use now)

The whales in forest could also have gone haywire/scared when the explosion hit and ran into buildings and such (like the last area before temple, with the huge bones in what I assume was a home)

Isle and prairie having the least affect. Isle I think was long abandoned before the explosion. Prairie I dunno. Apologies for the wall of text!

icy spruce
#

Orrrr, they made Vault a...What do you call this? A stimulation, since at the end of Vault. The elevator is heavily damaged and there is a first floor and there is rubble everywhere unlike when we entered Vault. Maybe since prarie is the one that is mostly uhh exposed to light? Aka, the sun?

#

But prarie has quite a lot of darkness plants

sly kestrel
#

Technically, vault was mainly destroyed bc of the ruin
Vault may be next to eden but that’s because vault is INSIDE the mountain
The eden castle is somewhere on top of the whole mountain while the tip of vault is somewhere around the top but not the summit

undone harbor
#

Darkness plants can be brought from places to prairie,I think

icy spruce
#

Unlike Valley (only found in Valley's maze) and Isle (2 spirits barrier) which has few darkness plants

#

Perhaps

neat fractal
#

I dunno honestly, it's midnight and my smooth brain is spewing out nonsense

undone harbor
#

Maybe because prairie is the "full of life" land so they wanted to bring all life forms to it?

#

Also Dang I had a lot of typos and auto corrects in that text wall

It's also midnight for me and my brain is also on crabs

Guys this is about the intro difference.

I am not sure which intro came first.

Intro 1: with the stars, our light was infinite. But darkness came, and the stars fell.

Intro 2: with the stars, our light was infinite. But darkness blinds, so I cast them away.

I find this interesting as to who the “I” is. The other intro gives the person talking to us a lot more power no?

Hrng

#

King?

little island
#

It’s what I thought too

near moss
#

But Darkness came and the Stars fell

#

Hmmm

#

mmm

#

hmm

#

The new intro suggests that the King pushed them away because of his own corruption

#

its midnight for me too stickerGloomy

#

It’s like, he gave the people a warning and they didn’t listen. So he went all the great flood and Noah’s arc on everyone ?

#

new intro?

near moss
#

The old one suggests that they fell due to it

#

I think perhapsv

#

It makes a lil sense but the King fell to the clouds too right

#

Like

#

There are 6 stars

#

Wait nvm

#

yep

uh

There’s such a thing as an Eden elder afaik?

Quick question did anyone take matter into their own hands and took a screenshot of every mural in the game? If not I can do it (it will take time) but I don’t want to if someone else already did it

I wonder what the names of 4 Prophets in Japanese version are

#

does anyone know?

neat fractal
#

What's the difference if it was in Japanese?

willow shoal
#

Well, its meaning sometimes changes

undone harbor
#

I have a theory:
What if krills are supposed to ascend long ago,but couldn't and got stuck in that rocky cover?

#

Ok so

#

We see their light from their eyes

#

It's blue

#

And when we die and the rocks covering us fall over we are blue as well

#

So maybe the krills were in this part of the process

#

But the explosion did something,I don't know,maybe mess up the reborn cycle

#

And they were stuck in that part(soul coming out of rock shell but they didn't come out)

#

Whenever they see light creatures (including us skykids)they think they are in orbit with other creatures so they just head straight to them

#

Not knowing they're hurting others

little island
#

@neat fractal in japanese sometimes the names have different meanings, so it takes us closer to what’s it’s originally supposed to be

#

To add to the ark project theory, we can see that in the intro, there is an “explosion” starting from Eden and expending to other kingdoms, making the 7 castles and 7 stars disappear.

#

What I wonder however, is this

#

Are they the elders? But in the intro they all disappeared

#

Or maybe it’s the elders and representing how they have lost their light, which is why our character gives back light to every elder throughout the game ?

#

Guys i just realised something

#

It goes from primitive to more and more advanced. At first I thought it meant the 7 realms didn’t coexist but actually succeeded each other but that makes no sense with everything else we know about the game

#

But every realm gets more and more advanced

wait sorry for spamming concept art but? Is this supposed to be eden??

no

#

It’s night (Early Vault)

oh is that so?

#

has it ever been implemented in the game?

nope

The story of sky started in the human world...pSkyPeek
@willow shoal I belive next season will be about it, and it will be placed in Valley i assume

willow shoal
#

Valley‽

#

omg

#

sounds interesting and encouraging

rose gorge
#

that would b cool

heady sinew
#

I think they initially planned Isle and Prairie to be more like our real world, with benches and buildings and then slowly transition into a fantasy land. But then the idea changed

little island
#

@willow shoal i'm sure many of you have. However there are new people here everyday, and looking at this discord, including me. It never hurts to share! 🙂

#

but by the way, what makes you say the story of Sky began in the human world?

willow pumice
#

Valley is the only place which doesn’t have a new seasonal place, so most probably it will take place in valley and i guess we will see the pre explosion era of sky

heady sinew
#

The concept art! I'm not saying it actually is the human world. I'm just mentioning it since some people have been sending concept art which features human buildings and such

little island
#

oh i see... i didn't see it this way. I think the game clearly shows strong sentiment against human endless greed, and therefore they originally planned out the game to be much more "human looking", since the message of the game is meant to be aimed toward us. but then they changed and made it more subtle

heady sinew
#

Exactly!

little island
#

i also think about two concept arts again, one where they say that the color orange is sacred in the game because it symbolises connection, and the one with visual relationships

heady sinew
#

While the idea to portray real world structures and such was discarded, they still built a narrative and world that reflects ours

little island
#

two worlds oppose each other, the greed, isolated, cold technological world led by the ancestors, and the more natural, pure world where we find the "children of light", and we are meant to connect both by using our light. It's why we collect light from each realm and then hand it to the elder?

#

i didn't mean to spoiler it

#

but i'm not sure what the megabird is or mean

#

means*

heady sinew
#

Yeah! I think they changed orange for yellow. But the colors do have meaning in the finished/live version! If I remember correctly, yellow colors mean life and energy, positive things. And the blue was meant to represent the dark, lack of life and energy and such

#

Megabird (Usually called Megan as an inside joke in this chat) is supposed to be the "God/Goddess" of the Sky world!

little island
#

yes, and those are meanings that resonate to us well too.

heady sinew
#

We have no solid proof Megabird is canon tho

little island
#

is the megabird different than the king then?

heady sinew
#

Yes, they are two different beings

little island
#

another question sorry, i don't understand where the idea of the "king" came from? I'm reading the google drive doc and everyone assumes it's here but i don't understand how anyone thought about it in the first place

#

ah i guess the megabird was canon at some point otherwise there would be no concept art about it?

heady sinew
#

All questions are welcome, don't worry about it! We all love discussing lore here. We first started talking about the king when we got our hands on some concept art, which said he was removed from the game eventually

#

Later on the devs confirmed the King is inside the game, and it's a canon character, but it's not present in the way we expect

little island
#

ohh that's so interesting. Where can i find the other concept art websites like tom zhao's? is it in one of the pinned messages?

#

thank you for answering everything so clearly to me

heady sinew
#

If you check further up in #news you can find the links to the official Sky account Twitter with some concept art of each of the realms! Or you can directly go into https://twitter.com/thatskygame to find it

#

thank you for answering everything so clearly to me

gloomy stag
#

What does this star symbolize?

little island
#

oh that's the same as on the concept art i posted aboce

#

above

#

i assumed it was just a military symbol?

#

like, indicating what the building was

gloomy stag
#

This is atop the wastelands temple

heady sinew
#

These stars are very present, both in Valley and Wasteland! My theory is that they are meant to represent the King we mentioned earlier!

#

Since the King was basically, well, a king, my main theory is that the people who used to live in the world tried to represent him in some structures

little island
#

like a christian cross?

heady sinew
#

Yeah!

willow shoal
#

but by the way, what makes you say the story of Sky began in the human world?
@little island
**🎨 "At one point we imagined Isle of Dawn to be the transition from the real world into the world of Sky."
**

little island
#

that's very plausible

#

@willow shoal ah did devs say this?

heady sinew
#

If you place concept art of the King next to the big star structures, the shape of his head and the star are very similar

willow shoal
#

Please have a look at the 7 Days of Sky in twitter, NiniSkyPoint

#

The real world=The human world

#

but we don’t know why they add this to the further beginning of the skykids

fast jasper
#

that star is basically king propaganda

broken basin
#

Focus at the line "At one point" , it doesn't mean that in the end, the Motive of isle was the transition from the real world
Tbh, i don't even think sky world is in any way connected with the human world, but there are opposing fan theories and old concepts

#

I think it is canon

#

we dont know if the elders have names, age, or gender

#

its said in the lore doc

#

the elders don’t have name names but they have titles

#

« Elder of the [Realm] »

plain flume
#

Oh it seems that its just canon that we cant really know

lethal stump
#

those aren’t canon names

#

the current elders don’t have canon names aside from their titles

Oh ok lol

#

Whats the graveyard?

hushed steeple
#

LAMED AHAHAH

#

I'M DEAD I'M DEAD

#

Vault elder is secretly Blue Diamond and you can't prove me wrong

#

By the way, I really can't understand the concept of Megabird (is it that thing in Eden?) and especially King. Where can one read about them?..

lethal stump
#

they’re rather prominent in the concepts too if you wanna check those out, @hushed steeple 

hushed steeple
#

Oh...

hushed steeple
#

Megabird is really interesting by their uncertanity.
If the King and Prince are "very corrupted and not to be saved anymore", it means they can have... no typically elderian body? The exploding thing in Eden scares me somehow and makes me think about it as a something alive, dark and dangerous-

So the sence of sky child's living is to bring back their fallen comrades... I thought about it really a lot when I was playing Eden. Some kind of earlier versions of sky children who were fallen somehow, or maybe they are the winged lights-
By the way why the winged lights have so human-like appearance, are they alive?

Why Golden Wasteland is golden wasteland? First impression often is that the area has a golden green tinge. Whist it may have been desert before times, and named before that, the theme if oil being present struck me today. Oil is often reffered to as "black gold". I like to believe that this was intentional, and that unmistakeably, before and after whatever happened to the world, Golden Wasteland has always been a Golden Wasteland. aSkyRolllll

Some time ago I started to think about sky kids and stars, what is their meaning? I remember the theory about us - sky kids being made out of clay, we are dolls made by spirits who live in sky world. Our body carries the light, we find it - then we are able to move and fly - to be alive.

** ** ** **- The stars are fragments of light that fell from sky, we gather them and carry them until we are ready to return them to the sky. While we carry them they give us power and they strengthen us to face everything.

** ** ** ** This all made me think about; what if when we go to eden to give all our light away to the statues, and then lose all of our light and freeze in same way like the statues - and the small blue spirit comes from us - thats when our soul ascends and our body is left to the storm

** ** ** ** The sky kids body doesn't get to reborn, they are left to the next ones that carry the light- sky kid body was made to carry light back to the sky - our body (that could have been made from clay) is meant to be vessel

#

oof thats long how do you even add big space??

keen kettle
#

I think it goes hand in hand with the life concept, throughout the levels, wingled light can be obtained, and it helps to progress, in essence, it acts as expetience. Perhaps at the eden, the light is given as the last moments are counted to the new souls to be born, possibly interpreted as passing your knowledge to younger generations to help them. Which may be why the targert is to give away as much of the light as possible.

As for the remaining body. Maybe when we reborn, we become entirely something else, that had been saved by someone else, whilst our true being remains after death in eden. However, it is contradicted with the animation that the statue actialy cracks and splits open. I don't know about the clay theory, as spirits too have turned to stone, and can be cracked open. Maybe fosilisation of sorts would be a closer answer, since it again goes hand in hand with the aging premise.

You turn in stone, yes, but as an idea, you become ancient. Times pass, and you turn into a memory for someone in the future to discover.

That does raise an interesting question. What if Sky time flow is not as we understand it. Perhaps non linear, or not constant, speeding and slowing as it progresses.

I mean... i sure HOPE it isn't linear-

#

Otherwise Prairie and Valley are kinda screwed

Is there a reason we're given 7 flaps when flying through the ruins after dying?
||it's because the total number of statues in eden can only give you max 7 flaps||

63?

#

Or was it 64?

vital jasper
#

yea

stark marten
#

It always gives you 7 flaps for the part when you fly up to Orbit after dying, it doesn't matter how many you had before or how many wing buffs you have. You don't even get your wing buffs in your cape until you are actually in Orbit, it just gives you some flaps for the cape in that section so that you can fly, but I don't think it's really affected by anything

and that bit

The notion that technology is a steady upward climb of “progress” is, itself, part of a Eurocentric historical narrative revolving around the tacit teleological assertion that Western European civilisation represents the culmination and endpoint of history.

time to rethink sky’s entire thesis on technology and progress now that i know technology going up couldnt possibly equal progress going up

#

but like, the realms going from the mined forest to the thriving valley of triumph to the war-torn wasteland and excluding vault (which is literally a storage for future generation to learn, mistakes being one) everything goes downhill from there... hmm

#

“so the techcnology from the diamond nerfed the civilization rather than advancing it?” maybe … but gotta tweak it

pseudo heart
#

Okay so

#

What if the fallen stars are the winged lights

sly kestrel
#

If ur talking about the stars from the intro cutscene, those are not winged lights
It was referring to the elders

pseudo heart
#

Other than the elders

#

I just remembered that WL were once literally called stars

near moss
#

Tink they still are somewhat

#

But nah

#

It’s been pretty much distinguished that there is a difference between skykids and elders (so much so I doubt there’s much of a genealogical connection)

#

And the winged lights are very connected to the skykids in some way

#

If WLs are the bridge between then I can’t really see why

#

And if the WLs were designated as stars in the same way Elders are I bet that’s what it would communicate

sinful anvil

the lore doc said WLs are imprints?

#

maybe the wls are memories. and the statues are the prince. the prince shattered into past skykids who go to eden over and over to fix this mess but repeatedly fail, so their souls break away and became wls.

bc we’re variation of these skykids we’re compatible with containing these wls, but in the end we have to give it back to the past skykids

“return light of the fallen” the prince has fallen

“wake up my child and bring these lost stars home” in a sense skykids are the prince’s children, more like reincarnation

keen kettle
#

'Fallen' may just be a fancy way to name the dead however. Perhaos those to whom we return the light are simply failed to be reborn, and essentially it is our task to solve it.

ashen bloom
#

they could be pure light or memories or smthn since we absorb them for flappy things

or we just kidnap them and they’re constantly trying to run away from us and the krills help them escape

#

or we just kidnap them and they’re constantly trying to run away from us and the krills help them escape
all they doing is standing on one place, no matter how many times we kidnap them

broken basin
#

What i belive that winged lights are just the imprints/memories of the Prince as he himself explored the whole Kingdom. That's why they are the same height as a skid since some say that we are the reincarnation of the Prince and that he was the same size as us

bitter shale
#

what if the prince was the first child of light before us?

broken basin
#

Isn't there a theory saying that the Prince is The child of light?

bitter shale
#

also iirc the eye of eden is written as 'give the lights to the fallen'

which mwan wls are the fallen's?

#

Isn't there a theory saying that the Prince is The child of light?
there is SkyLOL

broken basin
#

But we aren't sure that those statues in eden and winged light are connected in some way?
Maybe we just give them our winged light as a source of light which frees them from darkness and sets then free

rapid juniper
#

Hm they can be stars

broken basin
#

Also, pay attention that , us skykids are also fallen from the sky, right?
And the text says "return the light to the fallen"

rapid juniper
#

Or maybe somthing different

bitter shale
#

i kinda believed those statues are former generation of skids-

broken basin
#

Yep, me too

rapid juniper
#

No we are sent down to save our ancestors

broken basin
#

Sort of , a failed generation

bitter shale
#

there are 3 kind of statues in eden

hang on lemme quote my thesis of it from former chat SkyLOL SkyLOL SkyLOL

broken basin
#

Sent down from the sky is pretty much similar to fallen from the sky ig

No we are sent down to save our ancestors
@rapid juniper

rapid juniper
#

Hm they are sky kids maybe they failed to bring the light back

broken basin
#

Yeah, and then another generation, i.e. , us was sent down

rapid juniper
#

Cool

broken basin
#

can't wait for tommorow

broken basin
#

So youre saying that We are the 4th and the 1st successful generation. Great observation, sounds interesting:)

#

But why would they fail to create the right creature 3 times

#

When they knew eden is a mess

neat fractal
#

The failing part is actually accurate enough
Cuz you can't make sth perfect immediately
You need to create prototypes and test them out, in this case sending them straight to Eden

bitter shale
#

indeed

#

prototypes

neat fractal
#

Children prototypes oof

bitter shale
#

megan pSquint

broken basin
#

Yeah, we are sort of machines anyways, we were "designed" by the megabird

#

Conclusion, megabird was a bad designer

bitter shale
#

i have been thinkin or some add ons :

1st generation (bare-shattered statues) : they might be succesful on ascend (their spirit already gone) but they cant be reborn again
2nd generation (blue crystal statues) : their spirit somehow stuck on their stone body, unabling them to ascend
3rd generation (blue line statues) : this generation are more durable than former generations, proofed by their location after pnr. They cant find way to ascend by themselves, but they are not forever stuck like the 2nd generation

#

so basically
first can ascend but cant be reborn, 2nd cant even ascend, 3rd can ascend but need outer help

#

4th can ascend and can be reborn

teal orbit
#

As i keep saying,

#

When i say summin, most ppl say no

#

2 weeks later, they say

#

Oh... u were right

#

Anyways, more skids

#

Means more scientific names...

#

Huh...

#

Thats new

#

Ok first we make the name for the round darkness plant

#

Then we make the names for skids 1,2,and 3

#

Yes

#

How abt catydas cascus

#

Genus of an existing species goes first, then the latin of an adjective that describes it

#

Idk i think i got it wrong

#

Its supposed to be a parasitic plant...

#

Its in the scientific name doc

#

Cascus seem cool?

#

Old, ancient, stuff like that

#

Cuz it resembles concept art darkness plants

#

Ok gtg

#

Plz dm me with adjectives to describe skids ver. 1,2 and3

#

Remember...

#

Dm plz

#

@hushed steeple

broken basin
#

Why do we need such fancy names tho

neat fractal
#

Ikr just call it funny rememberable names

lethal stump
#

i believe the script is that they shatter when we approach

broken basin

Ikr just call it funny rememberable names
"Round darkness" is easier to remeber than "catydas cascus" imo , 😂🤡, but it's okay, a fun little thing 👍

I still think the krill were built

Mostly because of the noises they make

#

yall aint Vault inside the big mountain we see in every realm during our journey ?!?

lethal stump
#

possibly, Lilla

gilded fossil
#

/yess very possible

neat fractal
#

The wall of text I sent yesterday(?), I said vault was next Eden and that was a mistake SkyLOL
But even if so, it would definitely be destroyed/collapsed if it was inside the mountain/below Eden
So someone must have activated the holograms and such before that? Possibly?

past mountain
#

ehm that is eden I think and the palace is on top

hushed steeple
#

yes, it is very much true

past mountain
#

because essentially we climb in eden, it's quite rocky as the main area itself

hushed steeple
#

since i oob a lot i know (as many others) that the mountain is closest in the GW starting area its has ever been during our journey to storm

past mountain
#

we only enter the palace after the krills and the corruption, revealing the beauty that was preserved inside

#

the mountain is visible in the realms above the clouds

#

prairie and valley I think

#

correct me if I'm wrong

hushed steeple
#

The golden wastelands castle in the end- is the door into the vault- the enterance to the magical mountain

past mountain
#

they shielded it so that the vault would remain clean of any darkness

hushed steeple
#

yes but if you have ever oobed above clouds in GW the mountain and storm is closest it has ever been

past mountain
#

well yes, since it's above the clouds that's the point

#

you can't discern it below them

gilded fossil
#

/hmmm maybe the oob is something that's put there, and not nesscarily canon

hushed steeple
#

what do you mean?

neat fractal
#

Idk I just feel like vault was destroyed when Eden exploded
Cute it's so dream like and everything the higher you go

past mountain
#

the mountain isn't visible below the clouds in any point

#

if you oob above them you can see it

hushed steeple
#

... i- go look yourself, the mountain is just there - very much close to us

past mountain
#

we're not disagreeing on this

#

the mountain is there

hushed steeple
#

yes?

past mountain
#

can you see it from the first area of wasteland WITHOUT oobing?

gilded fossil
#

/yea i think

hushed steeple
#

i m just saying that we are closer the mountain than in the prairie

#

the mountain is visible in the realms above the clouds
@past mountain replying to this

neat fractal
#

Also someone said they OOB in vault and could see a moon in there

past mountain
#

yes we are that is true

#

@gilded fossil we can't

#

that's what I'm saying

lethal stump
#

when we leave Valley and head on our way to Wasteland social, we can see the Eden mountain in the distance

past mountain
#

it's there but we can't see it if we're below the clouds

#

because the mountain itself is above them

lethal stump
#

and when you oob in wasteland social, you see the mountain above the clouds

hushed steeple
#

i always thought that the light in the vault oob could be the light from the top

past mountain
#

I mean the first area of the wasteland, where you can head to the ark

#

can you see it there?

lethal stump
#

Broken Temple ?

past mountain
#

exactly

hushed steeple
#

im not sure - there must be reset barrier

#

ive tried

past mountain
#

I mean from the ground not the oob

lethal stump
#

i don’t believe so
but there’s not exactly a point to putting it there

#

thé cloud cover is such that you wouldn’t even be able to see it

past mountain
#

yes that's what I'm trying to explain all this time

hushed steeple
#

you cannot go above the broken temple clouds

past mountain
#

agreed

#

that is why you can't see it from there

hushed steeple
#

the starting area = social space

past mountain
#

I thought the social space is taken for granted

hushed steeple
#

thats where you can

#

what?

#

i do not get your point in this convo?

past mountain
#

the point is

hushed steeple
#

okay i found proof it is cannon

#

in tgc consept art

lethal stump
#

concepts aren’t canon

past mountain
#

can you see the mountain from the broken temple area?

lethal stump
#

no, acorn

#

you can’t

past mountain
#

that's what I'm trying to say all this time

neat fractal
#

Basically, if the devs put that detail in even though we can't see it from a normal gameplay, I believe it has a chance of being canon

Because why'd you put effort for sth no one sees?

Except like, the old prairie oob, idk why it's still in game but yknow

past mountain
#

what exactly isn't understandable here

lethal stump
#

at most you can see the wasteland temple and after that it’s fog

past mountain
#

well I think the old prairie is just a file remnant

hushed steeple
#

@past mountain i meant the oob, not what you can see from "normal gameplay" - in the social space NOT broken temple

neat fractal
#

Ya get whay I'm tryna say tho right?

lethal stump
#

sometimes things just
cant be removed from a game
because everything breaks

past mountain
#

it's not always a lore matter

#

it could be technical

lethal stump
#

and i’m betting that’s why beta prairie is still there SkyLOL

past mountain
#

okay lilla relax

#

we're not arguing

hushed steeple
#

im just trying to explain

neat fractal
#

I believe it has a chance of being canon

hushed steeple
#

im not

past mountain
#

and I specified the fact that I'm talking abt the broken temple many times

#

we're on the same page

hushed steeple
#

i told you before you even commented about broken temple that i was talking about starting area

#

and told you i meant social space with that one

past mountain
#

I was providing an example that the mountain is not visible from beneath the clouds

hushed steeple
#

i wasnt talking about that but go off ig

past mountain
#

you started the conversation asking if the mountain essentially the vault

#

and I attached some info to that

gilded fossil

just a style to comment i think

past mountain
#

ohh that's cool

#

I'm quite new to this chat even though I'm generally interested in lore, so SkyShrug

gilded fossil
#

/so

#

/i was thinking

#

/part of vault was chopped of

#

/the summit was chopped of

hushed steeple
#

im intrigued to try and oob in GW more

#

i think the vault is the mountain we go up and storm is on the top

past mountain
#

so only the summit was chopped off?

#

or some other floors as well?

#

that would explain why we see the vault elder space/summit right before orbit

#

but in a different state...

#

I was thinking maybe in eden we see how the vault evolved with the passage of time

#

and we travel in time rather than in space

#

it's too extended though

#

not quite a valid theory

hushed steeple
#

Or maybe vault is a part of the eden?

past mountain
hushed steeple
#

Interesting

#

kinda like this i guess

past mountain
#

yeah because I can't find any other explanation for why the elder space is visible from the top of the palace

#

but in a different state and so close

#

the summit in vault seems endless

hushed steeple
#

also oobing from the ending space with doors to eden/storm and home space - we can see the lightning and rocks are indeed there

neat fractal
#

Off topic but why does the point of no return cave disappear after going through?

past mountain
#

and we can also see the home space from there

#

if you fly quite high

hushed steeple
#

also the elder cutscene vault oob is below the door place - under the space

past mountain
#

so that would suggest it's very very high in the summit?

#

@neat fractal oh my that question-

hushed steeple
#

yes i think the vaults top is also the mountain top and we exit the mountain to the stairs that take you to storm

past mountain
#

yes that could be so

#

but the question remains... why can we see the vault elder space with all the statues from the top of eden, but in a different state? why does it appear so close, yet the top of eden itself isn't visible from the vault summit?

lethal stump
#

they’re different statues entirely, probably

#

they’re much much larger than the vault summit ones

past mountain
#

that could also be yes

lethal stump
#

i see it as a throne room

#

considering how big they are, the elders could probably sit comfortably on them

past mountain
#

so the top of eden, essentially the throne room (my interpretation) was also where the elders would meet?

#

oh hehe we have the same theory

#

didn't see it while typing

#

so uh maybe in the vault, they tried to replicate the throne room

#

so as to remind them of eden's forsaken glory?

hushed steeple
#

vault all eders oob is so cute

past mountain
#

or it would serve as the council of elders after the prince/king became corrupted

lethal stump
#

imo the shrines we see around the game aren’t actually there
the « true shrines » are the ones in eden

past mountain
#

yes maybe the elders themselves didn't actually reside in the temples

lethal stump
#

they didn’t, thats canon

gilded fossil
#

/so did it like, connected us to the eden one?

past mountain
#

but the temples where created to worship them

#

oh that's canon

#

cool

lethal stump
#

the temples are just places that were important to them

hushed steeple
#

i think that elder cutscenes dont actually happend in the realms end - its like completely different place from that

past mountain
#

yeah perhaps the epicenter of each realm's civilization

#

I think that's also canon

neat fractal
#

@neat fractal oh my that question-
@past mountain interesting question yet no answers SkyLOL

lethal stump
#

have either of you read the canon doc ?

hushed steeple
#

yes

past mountain
#

yes

lethal stump
#

maybe it’d help to review it

past mountain
#

that's where my theory came from I just forgot it was actually in the doc

#

this matter is imo the most vague one

#

abt vault and eden

gilded fossil
#

/sooo i have been playing in spanish and i know 0 spanish so everything in game has been gibberish to me

Race down the ridge, and the city gates will open to honor you

/honor???

rose gorge
#

they open once you finish the race to celebrate you?? words hard

neat fractal
#

Jen you've been playing in Spanish the whole time? SkyLOL
That sentence was always there, and I think since it used to be a race, it honors that you participated/competed in the race since valley is all about the races and sports iirc

past mountain
#

yeah it has been there from the old beta I think

#

/why honor if it's just a regular race?

/or as some say, a regular high way

Do you guys think that we will get a mindblowing trial tomorrow

So is there like a whole story to how the ark crashed and how the people on it died?

rancid juniper
#

No? I don't think so-

lethal stump
#

there is a bit of one

#

the trailer & teaser explain that the spirits were « searching for prosperity » but crashed in a storm iirc

was a krill involved?

rancid juniper

Ohh, im gonna go check it out thanks

lethal stump

it’s unconfirmed, Rei

if you want that to be the case, go ahead SkyDance

yes, there is

sadly i am not a theory encyclopedia

personally i haven’t really gotten to enchantment yet, my theories are still in development regarding...
other things

#

oki, well thanks anyway!

short owl
#

Maybe the gates are opening to honor us because we're the only ones who bring any sort of life to the city in the past long time

rancid juniper
#

Possibly,

We bring the spirit of competition, the joy of wooshing, and the thrill of victory with us

im still loving valley for taht dw

teal orbit
#

Prob the magic in valley thinks we r competitors...

#

The magic doors

#

Gates

#

Or...

#

The gates could be recognizing a piece of alef as it comes at them

#

And they open in our honor

neat fractal
#

Well technically we activated them by lighting the white candles and then sitting down in front of the doors

broken basin
#

But what do they mean that if we race down, the city gates will open?

neat fractal
#

Oh wait I'm dumb they meant the other door-

#

Yeah actually, the last door where it pumps out fireworks everyday as the gold doors open
This open automatically, like the doors in earth trial with the green diamond (not counting the first big door where it floats up)

broken basin
#

But, if those are the city gates, they actually are opening Before we race down.
But the text says that "race down and the city gates will open to honor you"

#

But that's not a city door

#

I think that the main colonies in valley are ones we see in both the races

neat fractal
#

But, if those are the city gates, they actually are opening Before we race down.
Wdym? Which gates?

broken basin
#

I mean the gates of the before-race room

neat fractal
#

Ooh oki

#

I think the "city doors" are just another way of saying the doors to the temple(?) where the fireworks go off

#

Since that's exactly what it does, opening in honor of you racing down

broken basin
#

So the city gate is actually the temple gate?

neat fractal
#

Possibly yeah

#

At least that's what I think

teal orbit
#

Or maybe the city gates open when u start the race...
Cuz the place is magic
And if u start the race the stadium knows...
Maybe...

#

Anyways

#

Guys... the skid versions..

neat fractal
#

If they start before we even race the sentence/statement doesn't make sense

The first skids: lutum pulvis
Second skids: lutum pessima
Third skids: lutum ignis
Us: lutum spiritus

#

Do u guyd like these?

Imma be honest with ya Pyre
Giving everything scientific names just makes everything much more harder and is there a purpose to giving them these names?

teal orbit
#

If they start before we even race the sentence/statement doesn't make sense
@neat fractal
So when the first gates open to let u start the race... u know that super long cutscene right? When that happens, the city gates open to honor u... when u come

#

And the scientific names r for fun

If u dont like it, dont talk abt it

And the sentence was "Race down the ridge, and the city gates will open to honor you" after the 2 doors at the beginning open before you go down

#

Huh...

That's why it doesn't make sense if those 2 doors were the city gates, since it told us that after those opened

Hey, so near that cave at the forgotten ark (with the wl) there’s these rows of dirt that look like theyve been dug up before. Are those the graves of the enchantment spirits? Or perhaps an unsuccessful attempt at growing fruits or vegetables?

Likely the last one

It looks liek some kind of farm ground

But there’s no water...

#

Except inside the cave nearby

And there’s no way to get the water to the beds

near moss

Could be that there used to be water there

But I think they’re too big to be dug graves

The murals showed ancestors with pots

So likely that is how water was delivered

So I agree with this theory they got corrupted

#

This boat has really interesting paintings. I said previously the game separated golden light creatures, that still communicated with nature and were overall good, and dark, corrupted beings. And we somehow are a combination of that. (It’s odd that the concept art placed the elders on the corrupted side though. They probably played a huge role in Sky’s downfall)

#

In the Isle of Dawn, we see people who are kneeling, most likely praying

#

Eventually (maybe their prayers were answered, even by the megabird who knows?) stars fell from the sky. They seemed surprised but please

#

On the ship, we can see that people, with a higher rank possibly due to them wearing masks, have the ability to transform stars in something else, most likely energy or a precious resource

#

This one is interesting too, the “balls” they made out of the stars seem to be able to open and liberate something. We can see the air symbol. Maybe they used the power of those stars to control the weather etc ?

#

Then we can see them, bringing those newfound powers/stars to Eden in the cave of prophecy. The color of the star is the one of air in the trials, which further confirms that they could control elements with those powers. Now why they brought them to Eden, I don’t know? But it looks like a volcano, were they planning to drop them inside?

#

The one leading has a mask, and so do the ones holding the star, so it must be an important ritual.

#

I think that what’s depicted on the last picture never happened; it was what was supposed to happen. Hence why it’s depicted in the “cave of prophecies”

#

Instead, the ship fell due to a violent storm. What I find interesting is that the contents of the ship don’t appear to be falling, they may be still in there somewhere.

#

This is the one part I can’t explain. They opened the “balls” and fireworks came out? They couldn’t have sacrificed their entire civilisation and kingdom to learn how to make kingdom. Maybe it’s just a way to show that these round things was a form of technology to them

tough path
#

may i say my theory about the mural on the ark?

little island
#

Of course!

tough path
#

So i think it actually tells the story of how the enchantment spirits. people found out how to make spells and contain them, then sent some people to go to another land and possibly sell these, until they were intercepted by a storm or a krill, and were stranded in the wasteland. so basically the story of how the ark and spirits got into the state they are in now

little island
#

I agree with the spell part. After all, spirits are the ones selling us spells such as fireworks, that would explain why they are using firework on the ark murals. Spirits could make a lot of things (hence the spells we use), but do you think they sell them? It doesn’t really explain why they’d go to Eden with those

tough path
#

what exactly makes you think they went to eden?

little island
#

There is the same “mountain” in the intro that is used to represent Eden

#

Eden also has a “volcano” light erupts from that you can see from every realm, I just assumed that was it

tough path
#

quite possibly, but the two seasons dont seem all that connected to me. These could be entirely different people, and i think the colored lights represent the elements that the prophets use

#

although they do both use elements

little island
#

I agree, I think we should assume all symbols are different

#

I mean that if they’re drawn differently we shouldn’t assume they’re the same. It’s probably something else, I wonder what

tough path
#

perhaps we’ll find out some more lore once we get to the trial of fire tomorrow!

little island
#

Yep!

short owl
#

I have a thought. Ancestors were temporary, but they left a lasting imact. We seem to be perminant, but the work we do is erased (plants grow back). The only lasting impact we have is when we work with ancestors.

sacred rapids
#

oh wait there's the fire trial tomorrow

little island
#

@short owl when do we work with ancestors?

short owl
#

Fulfilling the wishes of seasonal spirits

#

Restoring the arc

little island
#

Ah i see, I’ve never fulfilled all of their wishes so I never saw what it ended up doing

short owl
#

Bringing the memory of ringing bells to sanc

#

Ok so I was in the cave but I noticed two murals that are the same now I don’t know if someone already said this but I believe some people asked some sort of wish from the elders as they’re usually high up and that’s what we see here

#

And then those people get their wish and the elders reveal to them about what kind of lands these new elements are in

#

But I don’t know more from there

#

But we do know that these two are the same judging from that mountain structure which is actually found before you get to the caves

#

i read from the canon sky lore that in "There’s what appear (may be something else entirely) to be two krill horns from an oversized krill (megakrill if you will) embedded right where the shipwreck is snapped in half (note: krill horns appear to be spiky all around but these things zigzag instead)"

#

I went to look for it but i didnt find anything that could remind me of krill horns?

lime gull
#

So maybe there is/will be a new krill !!!

hushed steeple
#

New krill?

#

Ooh! Interesting

ashen bloom
#

oh no fear

#

tho theres a king manta thing and a king jellyfish thing so all we need is a king crab and king krill

fast jasper
#

elder krill pFIRE

AHHHH

teal prairie
#

Does anyone has the pic of Eden Elder? pWow

civic wave
#

Eden elder???

near moss
#

Nah dude I doubt there's a pic of it

stark marten
#

If you consider the King to be the Eden elder, then there are some pics from the concept art, but that character is not directly seen in the game, except for maybe in the mural for Eden that we see in the Vault ending cutscene

civic wave
#

Got an idea while going to eden that maybe the light childs we encounter are the spirit of the childs that failed the ascension to the eden's peak and in the point that we as players are reborn, an actual light child would go into one of the relams to give strength to other childs in their journey at the start middle or the last bit of strength at the no return point.
And the real question is what lies beyond the Eden's peak

near moss
#

what?

#

Okay so

civic wave
#

side note got oof in the pic xd

near moss
#

so lemme get this straight

#

The WL we encounter in Eden are skykids that have failed the ascension past Eden into Orbit, and that the goal of skykids is to give WL to the darkened skykids (statues) to continue their journey?

#

hmmmm

#

And then the lil part after that when you reunite with the light could be like another Skykid giving your statue a WL

civic wave
#

Kinda yeah like orbit would be failing the ascension so u become a statue in eden and a light child that helps another child to be stronger and return yourself kinda to your statue so u can finish the trip

#

The credits could be like maybe the real ascension we reborn before the end

near moss
#

Mhm

#

I like that!

vocal edge
#

I always kind of got the impression from the game that there is currently a great war raging (rather than the war being a thing of the past), and that we are warriors.
The story to me is pretty straight forward, if not difficult to put into words, if you take reincarnation theory into consideration. The fire inside of my skykid is the same fire inside of yours, we heal each other, we share it, we pass it on and we keep it alive, but it must've been forged somewhere..

The Darkness sort of, to me, looks like ash. It's absolutely congruent with destruction, and we see corrupting everything from the water to the ferocity of the wind to the hostility of the creatures, such as the krill. Burning fire leaves ash behind...

near moss
#

I always thought our goal in Eden was to give light to the darkened skykids who have died in Eden before us

#

Hurg?

#

Incheresting...

#

The war would be very passive and immaterial then

vocal edge
#

Immaterial to us, but perhaps in another plane, or realm, it rages.
This idea is given to me by one of the spirits (I forget which one!!) who is brought light, but not before taking a manic stab at the space in front of him and collapsing.

near moss
#

hurg?

vocal edge
#

When they die, they don't die, they're sent back to the physical realm, which is a descent.. there are probably a few different levels to ascend to, that we'll never experience because we aren't natural denizens there.

near moss
#

Hmmmm

vocal edge
#

(Elders?)

near moss
#

Yeah I thought you were talking about Dusk Elder rn

#

When they, the elders, die? They're sent to the physical realm?

#

So the physical realm is what they mean by above the clouds?

vocal edge
#

Hmm. Okay, so it's like (in my head, not claiming canon or anything)

#

There's the actual physical realm, our realm.
There's the Sky Kingdom, where our skykids are, which I'll call the corporeal realm, because our realm doesn't seem to really matter to them at all ||aside from the office, but that's just a really cool easter egg.||
Then there's Orbit, which I feel is a sort of in-between area for the realm the War is taking place in, which is spilling out into Eden due to forces of darkness trying to corrupt the corporeal realm.

#

There are tiers of ascension, and we're like the medics bringing light through to Orbit so that the elders and other spirits partaking in the fight can be healed. Their spirits are tied to something in the corporeal realm that helps them return to the kingdom if they are completely devastated,

#

which is why/how we can revive them via statues. But their main battlestations are just above Orbit.

Imma be suffering trying to avoid spoilers

I’ll talk with you all once I’ve done Fire Trial

no need to spoiler tag things here SkyDance

teal orbit
#

Wuts a hurg?

#

And isnt orbit just space?

#

And sky lore is like rlly rlly similar to wh40k canon... prob the darkest and most violent fictional universe ever to be created...

#

Im not gonna go into specifics to not get off topic and cuz this server is child friendly

#

Dm me for more on this

lapis notch
#

I want to ask though

#

Remember how there is a mural in sanctuary depicting Wasteland Elder (?) yeeting the king

teal orbit
#

Yea~~~ its tsadi not daleth

lapis notch
#

I was wondering if all Elders lived in the castle that we see in Orbit

teal orbit
#

Hmmm

lapis notch
#

And since my headcanon is that the King and the Star are like... connected

teal orbit
#

Wuts the star?

lapis notch
#

The Star destabilized itself when the King suffered great injury and well... the hurricane in the Eden realm happens

teal orbit
#

So the star is eden?

lapis notch
#

The big glowy pulsating thing we see in Eden as we give wings to fallen kids

#

IIRC

teal orbit
#

Ohhhh the siper doamond...

lapis notch
#

I mean again, that is my headcanon

teal orbit
#

Super siamond

#

Aaaaaaa typo

lapis notch
#

that the King and the Diamond of Death are bound

#

w h y

teal orbit
#

Ok.... cozy chat plz

#

Oh.

lapis notch
#

Well you gain only becoming a child without light

#

???

#

why were the messages deleted fghjk

teal orbit
#

Ok orion, my head canon is the same, but the king intentionally blew the diamond up to destroy eden, his seat of power, and his mech cuz a smol part of him was still good and alef not resh... so when it took control, it was like what have i done? So like our headcanons r the same... kinda...

lapis notch
#

But why would he intentionally blow up his own creation

#

Wasn't the king like... obsessed with giving sustenance to Mama Bird

teal orbit
#

Cuz he grew a conscience and alef took over... and he wanted his reign of terror to stop

#

Like vader

lapis notch
#

Huh

teal orbit
#

But palpatine

#

If palpatine did a vader, that would be resh

queen locust
#

Guys we're gonna have to refrain from using the fanon names of the Elders- to avoid confusion, we'll have to use <realm> Elder name in place of it

short owl
#

Why Viridi?

desert sun
#

yeah fanon names always confused me

queen locust
#

Krill came in the other week to tell us that iirc

short owl
#

Krill? Right KTJN set their nick to Krilltjn for the holiday

queen locust
#

Yeye

teal orbit
#

Rlly? We r not allowed to used fanon names any more?@queen locust

#

I memorized them...

#

Noooooooooooo

lethal stump
#

thé devs can tear the fanon names out of my cold dead hands

rose gorge
#

the names are very cool but somehow them having no names but Elder of the ____ feels more godly idk why

queen locust
#

It's not like we're not allowed I think- just that it confuses a lot of newcomers, idk if that was it- it's been weeks and I don't even remember if I ate last night

#

Just thought I'd put the reminder up there

teal orbit
#

cant someone putthe fanon names in the pins?

lethal stump
#

technically they’re there, in the theory vault
