cool

#

Think about it, since we are inside the megabird, or we shape the megabird.

#

Let's think ourselves as blood cells.

#

We, our job is to make the megabird live.

#

HOWEVER

#

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

#

The Megabird is already dead.

#

It's HEADLESS

oh

gosh it freezes again

teal orbit
#

If golems can be made out of light, sure...
But u sure abt skids being light creatures? U reference concepts a lot and the concepts say we r neutral...

#

But think abt it... if we are INSIDE the megabird, how do we know what it looks like aside from that concept?
We DO have that pic from the cutscene remember?

#

No need to read any docs to share your theories. We should stop sharing lore moth docs

bitter shale
#

i mean

#

we can just reccomen lore moff to read the doc if they want to

#

only reccomend tho

#

no matter if they gonna read it or not

sly kestrel
#

I recommend they do read it bc they need to understand that there rlly is no concrete written story that everyone expects there is and the lore moff doc explains a lot about what actually happens with the lore and the tiny details most players want stickerCelebrate

teal orbit
# true grove No need to read any docs to share your theories. We should stop sharing lore mot...

i never understood that one.... if they dont read our "introduction to lore" doc, how will they ever know what we are talking abt?
even without the fanon names, there are dozens of concepts that dont show up in the game, like the prince and the king...
tbh, i was looking for more docs to read when i started and i was so confused... im thankful someone showed me the lore moff doc to this day

true grove
teal orbit
#

sure sure

true grove
#

I agree with you docs are interesting pPopcorn
But we can make a welcoming environment by answering the questions instead of sending them to docs. After that we can recommend them stickerLove

teal orbit
#

sure sure

true grove
#

So what are we discussing today pPopcorn

teal orbit
#

the sky shop poems

#

im thinking we can squeeze out a few canonically backed theories outta those

#

im not saying all theories should adhere to canon

true grove
#

Yeah they sound lore like pPopcorn

#

So do we have a compilation of them

teal orbit
#

i dont think so

#

i wanna write smth that gets pinned here

#

so imma compile them now lol

#

Don’t weep, dear Elder, we heed your heart,
Tomorrow is a new day.
The scattered light, you broke in vain,
No longer falls apart.
“Dear Child, we waited your return,
Our true savior of the sky.”
Let love and compassion deeply in,
With you, we too will heal.

#

Hear the Mantas call to us,
Drizzle mutes our way.
Rest with us under shelter,
Stay warm from cold, we lay.

#

Follow the light, sweet Manta.
For we will fly with you.
Side by side, up on migration.
To home once more.

#

Chibi, do you remember when we first met?
Chibi, the times we watched sundown?
Chibi, how I nursed you well?
Chibi, seeking me this lifetime?
Thank you, Chibi.
With you, I am not afraid.

#

A kiss to share in highest highs,
A kiss to bear in lowest lows.
You inspire me everyday.
You encourage me every way.
You are my superstar, my best performance,
My stardust, my northern light.

#

Save all your whispers,
Your soothing words.
Descend to friends, soar up to birds,
Through even a long day, they wait alone,
Your crabs, they huddle, as you come home.

#

The show must go on!
Won’t wait a season longer.
The troupe moves to rhythm.
Your ship steers onwards.
Before then, you slowly ponder...
What a crowd, what an act, what a stage,
What a thought it would be to meet you here again!

#

some of these are pretty useless

#

but who knows...

teal orbit
#

dang

queen locust
#

Links to both Skyshop poem docs

teal orbit
#

pin pin pin

#

oh i bet we can make a "things we can now confirm as canon based on the poems" doc

#

what say you, @queen locust

queen locust
#

huh what- I'm actually not even sure these are that canon

teal orbit
#

they.... arent???

queen locust
#

much less do I want to have to try and dissect these

teal orbit
#

well... if i dissect and dm them to u, can u make the doc?

queen locust
#

Bruh if you write those on a google doc of your own that'd be easier

teal orbit
#

i dont wanna....

#

ik im lazy

icy spruce
#

why

teal orbit
#

but plz

#

dividing work always makes it easier

queen locust
#

wh- just write the dissection on a blank google doc- that is literally less work than sending them to me and having me make the doc

teal orbit
# icy spruce why

there is so much thats in those poems that could refine canon A LOT

icy spruce
#

bruh

queen locust
#

and I write everything in Arial and Calibri

teal orbit
#

its ok

icy spruce
teal orbit
#

i have my reasons...

#

plz?

icy spruce
#

You can just write it later

#

#

You don't have to ask someone

queen locust
#

Tell you what- a microsoft word document works just as well

#

Just make a copy into your own drive.

#

edit from there

teal orbit
#

okokok i`ll do it on my own then...

teal orbit
icy spruce
#

So, lore

hidden scaffold
#

tom zhao's concept art (fanon btw) has some ideas about the division of working class

we see it reflected on the world design, especially in valley and wasteland. my theory is... maybe there's a way to examine the clothes that the ancestor spirits wear, to tell what kind of position they have in the kingdom

#

so that way when we identify spirits, we can see which realm they actually came from and what sorta life background they had. instead of linking them exclusively to the region they're in :v

all the pieces of canon clearly stated by the poems

Soooo? What dya think, yashl?

U r my beta tester rn

true grove
#

Elder is responsible for flight
And together again, we fly.

I think this refers to past beta versions in which elders used to give us wings

teal orbit
#

But those poems are abt live, and they are for sky merch that only work on the live version of the game...

#

Plus, those poems were made pretty recently

#

So they are prob not based on beta

#

At least not exclusively

true grove
#

Maybe elders giving us wings was the original concept. Stars were pretty late addition to sky.
They could've just put in poem as it isn't necessary to use pins :pPopcorn:

willow shoal
teal orbit
#

Poems are descriptions of the live version of the game by the devs...

#

So i think its canon..

#

Lore discussion here I come again 😭😂😂😂 what’s the chat about today?

teal orbit
#

today is a new day for canon

willow shoal
#

guys there’s a video introducing Jenova Chen about the ideas of eden

#

However it is fully in Chinese

compact olive
#

@wind bone “please keep the inside jokes and fanon names to a minimum. To be clear, please stop referring to Sky elders with their old concept Hebrew names and referring to the megabird as "Megan". These things often mentioned here are either fan-based or scrapped long ago during development”

Does this include the word Krill or Skid / Sky Kid? Because I think these are Fan-based names as well.

here’s the video

#

thatskyshop Poem doc?

teal orbit
#

ye

willow shoal
#

👍

#

I made this before

teal orbit
#

i.. cant read it

willow shoal
#

I suggest that the doc could be added more languages versions

teal orbit
#

this is an english only server tho...

#

if u cant read english u should be in another community iirc

willow shoal
#

well, I mix English/Chinese/Japanese together

teal orbit
#

u dont see me writing stuff in korean do you?

willow shoal
#

I forgot the koreanpFIRE

#

if tgc offers more language versions of poem, i’ll add it

teal orbit

great

Elder of The Forest Pin
"Don’t weep, dear Elder, we heed your heart, Tomorrow is a new day.
The scattered light, you broke in vain,
No longer falls apart,
“Dear Child, we waited your return,
Our true savior of the sky.
Let love and compassion deeply in,
With you, we too will heal."

teal orbit
#

yes?

#

what abt it?

#

oz?

hazy cliff

#

yea

#

oz just deleted it

ig we will see why in a moment

#

meanwhile, ppl, plz read this thru and check for any errors plz

#

if u wanna that is

compact olive
#

She, The Forest Elder (who in concept art had the name Teth ) is implied to have broken the light intentionally “in vain”

#

“The scattered light, you broke in vain”

#

She tried to break the light... why?

#

Perhaps the people, the fallen stars (who were also called ancestors in concept art) might have been the ones to abuse the diamonds (also called power diamonds in concept art) ?

teal orbit
#

she was trying to make diamonds

#

the sledge hammer

compact olive
#

To do something in vain is to do it intentionally... but to no avail or with no positive result

bitter shale
#

teth use it to made diamonds

compact olive
#

So this poem (from that game company’s pin shop) implies that the forest elder (who’s name was to be Teth in concept art) did this act of breaking the diamond on purpose

bitter shale
#

....there is a reason why their temple have manta juicer-

bitter shale
#

they break the light to made diamond

#

and the light here might reffering to light creatures

compact olive
#

Ahhh then nothings changed and it’s exactly the same as when we original theorized she used mantas for manta. Juice . Okay .

bitter shale
#

like idk people maybe idk lol

compact olive
#

I thought the “scattered” and “broke” in the poem (located in the game company pin shop) was about the shattered and broken diamond (which was called a power diamond in concept art)

bitter shale
#

you see my pfp? its a picture of reborn cycle. notice that light creatures are sourced from a bigger light deity...

this lead to speculation that light creatures are scattered light of Megabird

slender raptor
#

I think the poem is talking about how teth broke the light in vain, making it scattered. But when we enter the cutscene we glue the stuff together with our light so it no longer falls apart

compact olive
#

Scattered light of The megabird (who is named in concept art depicted as the bird shape of light in space/orbit) hmmmm I see

compact olive
#

Yes I can see how the forest elder (named Teth in concept art) was break the “light” in the poem and not the diamond (also called power diamonds in concept art)

bitter shale
#

while i myself intrepeted the scattered light here as light creatures, its nice to see others repretetations hehe

slender raptor
#

When you.. juice light creatures, how does their light scatter? Im trying to grasp the idea theyre like glass..

bitter shale
#

tbh i see megabird like megakaryocyte... a big cell in bone marrow that producing platelets that will help on wound recovery.

basically, platelets are reproduced from megakaryocyte by fragmentation. These fragments will enter blood stream and called as platelets.

This how i see the connection of megabird and light creatures : megabirds from some concept arts are depicted as a massive light creature that will release smaller light creatures. it can be saif that these smaller light creatures are fragments of megabird, or scattered light from the Light

past mountain
#

perhaps she intended to create diamonds using the light she acquired from the light creatures, in vain, since she did not succeed (the cutscene depicted her being unable to forge the diamond before we arrive)

bitter shale
#

my take is they cannot forge the diamond since they didnt have any light left pThink

bitter shale
past mountain
#

hmm, how would "break" translate in that context tho... I'm searching for something else since she (logically) wouldn't break the diamond

#

but breaking the light creatures, to reach for their light

#

perhaps

#

I'm not sure ofc, just some theories owo

bitter shale
#

breaking, squishing, juicing, extracting

past mountain
#

feel free to enrich/debunk this theory owowo

bitter shale
#

imagine light creature as a wet sponge. imagine squishing that wet sponge until there is no water left

past mountain
#

i feel very bad for the mantas

bitter shale
slender raptor
past mountain
#

if that's the case, then we also aid her in creating diamonds, the same diamonds she attempted to create using the light of the creatures PES_SweatWhat

bitter shale
#

tbh same, i love sky mantas ;-; i cant help but to feel sad whenever i imagine manta squisher-

bitter shale
past mountain
#

yeah... that makes me think that the elders' intentions might not be so pure... but anyway, theories theories theories (most of them untrue)

#

so how is "break" used here? what else, that is considered light, could she have broken, and in vain?

#

first of all, let's analyse this: "the scattered light, you broke in vain, no longer falls apart"

#

I perceive the scattered light as light creatures, uncontrolled, free in the "wild"

#

which also reminds me that we shouldn't compare our own world to sky - the "juicing" or "extracting" might also not have been something cruel

slender raptor
#

"The scattered light, you broke in vain,
No longer falls apart" teth either broke the light, or the scattered light. for the former- it could refer to megabird. but how does converting lightjuice into diamonds scatter the light? the latter- it could refer to the light creatures. but why do they no longer fall apart?

#

and why "in vain"?

past mountain
#

the "in vain" I think refers to her broken diamond in the cutscene

#

she attempted to create diamonds using the light, but failed

#

the diamond could've also been destroyed by something else tho owo

#

but that's the most accurate explanation I can provide for the phrase "in vain"

bitter shale
past mountain
#

so that means that the light became scattered after the breaking, and it was not scattered before

#

nice theory owo

#

I really like this

bitter shale
#

the forest temple door implied taht to create a diamond need a balanced amount of darkness and light

past mountain
#

I interpreted as scattered in the first place, leading to the conclusion that it originated from light creatures; but now that you say this, I think your theory is better owo

#

and the "in vain" could refer to the fact that even though teth broke it, it could not avert the crisis

bitter shale
#

if the scattered light here reffering to light creatures... Teth might intentionally 'break' these light creatures in order to make diamonds... but the diamond producing is, while very useful it also bring a terrible consecuences... they might didnt realize the danger at first, too blinded by greed, but when the danger become too big to ignore they are trying to prevent it, but it is already too late...

past mountain
#

oof I need to go, will come back later Heart owo

bitter shale
#

here is the thing, light creatures that died because of unnatural cause will leave bone or carcass... manta does have bones (can be seen from vault), but if the production of diamonds requiring the 'juicing' or 'squishing' the mantas...

neat flint
#

:0 hi

bitter shale
#

they might didnt leave intact bones. they might leave sludges

#

hi math!

#

im assuming the light creature carcasses are the one who formed the sludges in GW

willow shoal
#

previous skykids pSquint

compact olive
#

#

what if there are more than one megbird like creatures pEyes

teal orbit
#

how does aqua johnny have all those super cool pics?

willow shoal
#

from internet pSquint

teal orbit
# compact olive So this poem (from that game company’s pin shop) implies that the forest elder (...

not the diamond... teth broke the candle, and back in the day, teth broke the mantas and birds...
see...
let me spell it out for u:
The scattered light, you broke in vain > thats the light she smashes with here sledge hammer, be it candle, manta, or bird
No longer falls apart. y'know how at the start of teth's cutscene, teth has all those small diamond shards and teth is sad and frustrated?
thats the failed version... the ones that fell apart... get it now?

teal orbit
#

ofc it was the internet

willow shoal
#

some are from Tom Zhao’s Site and others are found in game or in google

teal orbit
#

ohhhhh

#

right tom zhao`s site

#

how did i forget that lol

willow shoal
teal orbit
#

sooo

#

what do u have to say abt the poem canon doc?

willow shoal
#

well, hmmm I don’t think highly of the poem

teal orbit
#

but the canon derived from them will prove useful

#

but for it to be recognizable as canon, it should not have any logical flaws

#

so thats why im asking

#

another link

#

cuz the old one was buried far beneath chat

willow shoal
#

here’s my collections of lore

uneven moth
#

guys is some german people here? i am done with my first part with my german fanfiction about the eden eldar. and would like if someone from the lore could read it and help me if i did sth wrong 😅

willow shoal
#

i’m lazy and i didn’t have completed the doc

#

oh gosh, the channel freezes AGAIN

lone wigeon
#

General is a mess so I came here

true grove
#

This is a mess too, but slow

lone wigeon
#

Well, then uh, I got a question

#

You know the well known 2 player doors

livid valley
#

Mhm

lone wigeon
#

They require a candle. Does this mean that spirits also carry candles? Have we ever seen one doing so?
And again, they seem rather not practical to use
For example the workshop in praire village. Why would spirit working there need a second person to acces it. Its not that important, is it

#

And yeah, did the spirits carry candles

livid valley
true grove
#

I think it's an in game thing the diamonds could've been there but the way to open might be different SkyShrug

livid valley
#

It could be just trying to make people cooperative but to lore it can be security. And they could be using a object of kind to open the doors without candles specifically

true grove
#

Also as we see in forest elder cutscene it might be that way to tell us that diamonds were made to store light

pure leaf
#

Well maybe it's the light, not the candles.

#

The Elders each had a way to use light right?

lone wigeon
#

Maybe
That would be soo cool if they could just touch it and boom

livid valley
lone wigeon
#

Thats kinda ood since only red candles work, right?

livid valley
#

I'f i's light and the diamond need slot just to function it's something that seems like a bad power function

#

true grove
lone wigeon
#

And that its dead end

#

Wha

teal orbit
#

the white candle is a candle in your inventory... its not smth u have with u all the time and it burns out.... unlike the red candle

true grove
#

They burn darkness plants faster

livid valley
#

The white candle I believe is the small light burning during the starting of the game keeping you alive

pure leaf
#

The fireplace is fire, not a candle and white candles are like currency... If you put a fireplace on a diamond does it open? I've never tried it...

teal orbit

#

Or does it...

true grove
#

I saw some original concept art and in that skids had fire instead of a candle

livid valley
#

Hmm.

lone wigeon
#

I was thinking about the capes... and the spirits wearing them.
We know that our capes and we are connected, but did spirits know about this?
And the fact that they could actually fly?
Were there any winged light back then?

#

Their capes Have no stars do they couldnt Have fly

But what the hell are these things

Hmmmm I don’t really like the Imperium a lot. (Sheeesh don’t burn me because of my heresie)

nope not the dark eldar too spiky... i like the gentle streamlined flow of asuryani weapons

hello

#

more than one megabird lol

#

umm light creature migration

#

As you can see there are birds and mantas coming from all directions, it suggests that light creatures live everywhere, and that there might be more kingdoms/realms to explore

pseudo heart
#

Okay so

#

I would like to add

graceful osprey
#

add what?

pseudo heart
#

Uhm

#

Some of the poem may be referring to past elder concepts I mean

#

Especially Forest's

#

I mentioned this before

#

The poem would fit beta Forest Elder more

hoary violet
#

has anyone made an encyclopedia of sky creatures

#

id like to make a book of the manta variants and jellies and stuff

#

Ah,, I've made a chart for manta variants with Chrome spice, would you like to see??

yes please

i think mantas taste like pasta

willow shoal
#

pasta?...

hoary violet
#

with butter

#

no sauce

#

now i want manta shaped ravioli or something

#

are spirit mantas and jelly mushrooms made of the same material

lone wigeon
#

why would you ever imagine that

#

why would anyone ever

#

w..why

tawdry dune
#

Manta pasta with a side of crab?

fading peak
#

TGC start making manta ravioli and jelly mushroom marshmallows

lone wigeon
#

what is wrong with you ppl, mushroom marshmallows, eating our friendly mantas, what

fading peak
#

Okay but if the ancestors and elders didn’t eat mantas or jellyfish.. what did they eat? Did they eat crabs and only crabs? Because if that’s the case, that would imply they either hunted them to near extinction or they farmed them

hoary violet
#

WELL

#

In the ark there’s a farm

#

So they might’ve been omnivores

#

Unless the crops were used for making fabric or something

fading peak
#

Why not both?

hoary violet

hoary violet

i wanna make a collage/scrapbook about the creatures but from a skykids perspective

yoooo theres so many concepts that didnt get into the game that im gonna steal for fanart

hoary violet
#

these are beautiful pWow

#

sorry, im getting off topic lol

#

I’d love to play a game that takes place in that flooded city

#

the vibe is so different

#

ok one last thing

#

has anyone discussed this yet

graceful osprey
#

HUMANS?

#

so...

#

THEY ARE ON EARTH?

#

i found something linking whales to krill

#

looks like the whale dies and it light decides to go adios an there are some bones left. In the absence of light darkstone grows on it

#

concept arts conflict so much sometimes

#

where did your message go?

graceful osprey
hoary violet
#

That’s what shocked me about this lore channel

graceful osprey
#

thats why its flooded

hoary violet
#

I always thought of this game as more of a metaphor for life and death but people here always talk about the sky world as if it’s an actual place

#

But I think of it as more of a concept

graceful osprey
#

life benefitting from the death of others maybe

hoary violet
hushed steeple
#

I think Sky has like a deeper meaning as in life in endless and so are the possibilities and Sky has become like an actual home to others

graceful osprey
#

like the kingdom of sky benefitted from the extinction of humans

It appears that the elders and stuff were originally neutral

#

not good or bad

#

They did some bad stuff but weren’t bad guys

graceful osprey
#

if the concept arts are true, then why don't we see ourselves in the human workd after being reborn?

hoary violet
#

Maybe we are in the human world

hushed steeple
hoary violet
#

and the realms are just what our souls see

wind bone
#

Remember that concepts are just concepts! This doesn’t mean that what they are showing aren’t in game or scrapped per say, it could just be in a different format now

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

or maybe we don't experience anything in the human world. everything except our personalities get erased when we go to the world of sky.

wind bone
#

Yeah that’s fine, just try not to get into the mindset of things being 100% right or wrong

hoary violet
#

I’m not

#

Maybe that’s what the vault is for

wind bone
#

I don’t mean you specifically 😅

graceful osprey
#

i haven't

hoary violet
#

archiving our human experiences n stuff

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

note how it says "empty souls"

#

very well could be

#

do you think isle of dawn counts as the kingdom of sky?

hoary violet
#

hmmmmm

graceful osprey
#

because it only says sky when we are between isle and prairie

hoary violet
#

the human world is where our bodies are but our hearts are in the spirit world pEyes

#

Morning guys! What’s the topic 👀

lethal stump
#

watching lore moffs discover the concept arts is cute

graceful osprey
hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

maybe humans are the same as skykids

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

im not a moff :(

#

humans have evolved to adapt to their post-apocolypse situation

#

i've been here since about June 2020, you're babies, its adorable stickerShiny
now continue, im intrigued with what you come up with

hoary violet
#

ive been here since august 2019 pHelloKrill

pulsar iris
#

I-

hoary violet
#

but I only joined the discord recently

graceful osprey
#

i only found out about this server recently

lethal stump
#

im speaking in terms of the server, yeah

graceful osprey
#

i've been here since around march 2020

lethal stump
#

anyways back to lore uwu

graceful osprey
#

yes

spring blaze
#

why did i think march 2020 was 3 months ago 🧍

hoary violet
pulsar iris
graceful osprey
#

I think megabird is a selfish cosmic entity which benefits from absorbing skykids

pulsar iris
#

So who are the skykids and how does it connect to the human world

hoary violet
#

we’re the embodiments of human souls

graceful osprey
#

it sucks the soul out of the ascended skykids and yeets them back onto earth

hoary violet
#

Megan really just went and regurgitated a child back onto earth but kept their soul

lethal stump
#

only thing i wonder, is if the sky and human worlds were connected, dont you reckon the sky world would show signs of human intervention ? it looks rather alien imo

graceful osprey
#

ded

hoary violet
#

We’re mostly discussing concept art

#

which does have human stuff in it

lethal stump
#

the old concepts, yes

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

in the isle of dawn concept arts there were what seemed like some modern buildings

lethal stump
#

although as time went on, it was solidified by the devs that the sky and human worlds are separate

graceful osprey
#

WHAT

hoary violet
#

I’m hiring myself to be a sky dev and changing the rules

#

You can’t stop me

graceful osprey
#

crumch i was just describing that city

#

i still beleive that the sky kingdom is in the same universe as Earth (note how i said the same universe but not planet or solar system)

lethal stump
#

although there is s o m e possibility that the human and sky worlds will be revealed to be connected, specifically based on this interaction reika had with someone in the chat:

q: can skykids travel outside the world of sky?
a: douzen thats gonna be a spoiler so i cant say

hoary violet
#

bricky joining this is like an Olympic wrestler joining some kids play fighting sqwarlockDed

graceful osprey
#

VERY INTERESTING

hoary violet
#

if the universe is infinite then that means that the sky world could be out there

graceful osprey
hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

why did you say no to the laws of physics?

wind bone
#

If u think about it

hoary violet
#

because physics are overrated

graceful osprey
#

I mean tho it is possible

wind bone
#

Isle elder is kind of like Charon and the river Styx

graceful osprey
#

It would be more like a simulation than a natural kingdom

wind bone
#

I wouldn’t worry about physics too much since like every video game doesn’t have 1:1 real world physics

#

Unless it’s the point of the game

graceful osprey
#

but we are literally F L Y I N G

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

i'm scared

hoary violet
wind bone
#

sky kids are just built different

hoary violet
#

we’re quirky

graceful osprey
#

don't drag me on a boat and take me across a river to the underworld

wind bone
#

Instead of a river to the underworld it’s across the clouds to a “paradise”

graceful osprey
wind bone
#

That’s evil

#

But what if 🤔

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

pain

hoary violet
#

thank y’all for humoring my crazy theories lol

wind bone
#

Wait if sky kids breathe through their eyes what happens when they aren’t wearing a mask

#

Since they keep their eyes closed

hoary violet
#

uh

woven perch
#

this is all terrifying

graceful osprey
#

they just blow air out in all directions

wind bone
#

Wow kind of like how frogs drink through their skin....

hoary violet
#

you just show up in the pity room if you spend too much time maskless

graceful osprey
#

or their head explodes or they have porous skin

hoary violet
#

POROUS SKYKIDS

lethal stump
#

skykids do have nose-like protrusions if you look at their model from the side, i think they have noses but it'd be too graphics-intensive to model the nostrils and details

wind bone
#

Yeah but who wants logic here

hoary violet
#

I personally like that skykids don’t have too many details, they’d fall into the uncanny valley if we had all the weird details like nostrils

graceful osprey
#

this is lore chat

lethal stump
woven perch
#

i wouldnt be opposed to the idea of skykids not really having the ability to breath and stuff, but rather imitating the spirits for the sake of it because its cute

true grove
#

What- what are yall taking about pEyes

wind bone
#

Art of sky kids with fingers still freaks me out even tho I know logically they do have fingers

graceful osprey
#

I think the "nose" shape is just to make sky kids look better to each other

pulsar iris
wind bone
#

Well the game is centered around death and rebirth

hoary violet
#

Coming in here after playing too much Spiritfarer was probably a bad idea

wind bone
#

Did you know in pre launch beta instead of waking up in home you’d wake up on the isle shores!

#

Even after finishing eden you’d end up in isle

true grove
#

And that made much more sense

pulsar iris
#

So are we just Stella then? ||Wandering around till we feel like dying again?||

#

I put spoilers just in case some of you didn’t finish

lethal stump
#

similar, giccix
imo i like to imagine skykids dont need to eat, breathe, sleep, etc., but they do it to mimic the spirits (although this is mostly for fanfic sdfng)

hoary violet
#

home should be part of isle

graceful osprey
#

because skykids are "born" on isle of dawn. But spawning at home would be a lot easier

true grove
#

Why do we have nose if we don't breathe pEyes

hoary violet
#

A headcanon I have is that skykids don’t really have feelings but they learn them from spirits

pulsar iris
#

So we- the dead children, are tasked with visiting a dead world, to save long dead spirits ? So we can all die together ?? In eden??

hoary violet
#

and maybe take the things they learn back to the human world

woven perch
#

thats like saying why do we have eyes if skykids dont even need to open them to walk

lethal stump
#

take a water shot every time we say "die" "dead" or "death"

pulsar iris
#

... what if when the game is shut down there’s one final cutscene

wind bone
pulsar iris
#

And we all wake up, with hands and fingers and human faces, to our parents

graceful osprey
wind bone
#

You can tell it’s old bc cookie pendant agony

pulsar iris
#

The game will die one day ..

hoary violet
#

That would be a great ending

graceful osprey
#

i know

#

every game will

pulsar iris
hoary violet
#

I regularly think about sky’s connection to cloud

#

one of tgc’s early games

graceful osprey
#

humanity will annihilate itselfpFIRE

wind bone
#

Crumch you know abt sky originally being a cloud sequel right?

hoary violet
wind bone
#

Yeah jenova talked about it in an edge article

true grove
#

I want to fully restore eden at the end. End could be like we all gathered enough light to restore eden pWow

graceful osprey
#

we die twice

pulsar iris
graceful osprey
#

in sky, you only live trillions of times

wind bone
lethal stump
#

....[sighs] eden crown SkyDontGo

pulsar iris
#

So sky is basically the culmination of everything tgc has ever created

#

The love child of the company, the final masterpiece

lethal stump
#

except flow

woven perch
#

the early prototypes do look a bit like cloud dont they

lethal stump
#

flow is the weird redheaded cousin

graceful osprey
#

flow is irrelevant

hoary violet
#

I should do art of a human looking out to see a city with one manta flying around

graceful osprey
#

its just a nice fancy arcade game

pulsar iris
# lethal stump except flow

I feel like orbit has a lot of flow references, I feel like if we look hard enough we’ll find the worm haha

lethal stump
#

i think the reason flow is so divorced from the rest of the "TGC Canon" if you will, is because its just so fundementally different than the others in the roster
like

Cloud - Help clean the planet
Flower - Bring life back to a dying ecosystem
Journey and Sky - bring back light and life to a destroyed kingdom while making friends
Flow - devour your enemies

it just kinda sticks out, yanno ?

hoary violet
#

I mean

#

flow could be what happens in the wasteland water

wind bone
#

Did u know while you’re in the light (the part where you get reborn) you can tap the glowy bits floating and they do a little explosion away from the tap

wind bone
#

I think of eden as storm > orbit > the light

#

Because that’s the name of the constellation

lethal stump
#

ah The Big Orb

woven perch
#

thats a thing? :O

graceful osprey
#

there aren't many aquatic creatures in sky

wind bone
#

Besides the birds and butterflies there are only aquatic creatures

hoary violet
graceful osprey
#

but they don't live in water

pulsar iris
#

...what if we’re all in a coma

graceful osprey
#

WHAT CRICKET

wind bone
#

Oh ya the crickets

#

The sfx you hear at home at night

hoary violet
#

The crickets in home

woven perch
#

you can hear them

graceful osprey
#

oh...

hoary violet
#

You can’t see them, but I doubt they’re underwater

lament crater
#

Where are the crickets hiding

pulsar iris
#

👀

hoary violet
#

then we’d see cricket flavored bubbles

wind bone
#

What if we were the crickets all along...

woven perch
#

theyre very very tiny

#

or that...

graceful osprey
#

do you think some of the things in sky aren't actually there

#

for example the crickets

lament crater
#

A skykid chirping cricket noises is sort of endearing to me now haha

pulsar iris
graceful osprey
#

yes

hoary violet
#

Wait, it’s all crickets? Always has been.

graceful osprey
#

or it could be a dream

#

so we are just imagining everything

hoary violet
#

What if we’re in a coma and Eden is us dying in our sleep

pulsar iris
#

Collective imaginings by kids

graceful osprey
#

evrything is not real :(

woven perch
#

i mean,,its not impossible,,,,

#

we are in some sort of loop

hoary violet
#

this is giving me the same vibes as the shelter music video

pulsar iris
#

I think the world of sky is real, but us existing in it isn’t

graceful osprey
#

after dying, we are stuck in a land made of literal dreams

hoary violet
#

I knew a dude that was in a coma for a little over a week and he saw all sorts of weird stuff while he was gone, so I wouldn’t be shocked if that was what skykids are

pulsar iris
hoary violet
#

INTERESTING

pulsar iris
#

The mega bird needs us by putting us into comas

#

Our bodies are not real

#

We are not real

graceful osprey
pulsar iris
#

we can’t feel pain, or anything. We don’t even show the 7 signs of life

lament crater
#

Way to give skykids an existential crisis--

pulsar iris
#

That’s why I think we’re all trapped in some collective dream

graceful osprey
#

maybe my friend was not close to the other side enough

hoary violet
#

What if we’re all in some kind of matrix type thing and we’re all hooked up to one shared dream

graceful osprey
#

i was thinking

hoary violet
#

and sky is just a substitute for a real world so our brains don’t rot

pulsar iris
#

I mean we can pop in and out of existence with a simple tap of the home button

#

No one will know were we’ve gone

#

Mega bird is the one that is connecting us

lament crater
#

Oh I read back and saw that Isle Elder might also be referenced as Charon? Would that mean that the skykids' journey is just them reliving their past, albeit in a symbolic way? I'm pulling on ends here lol

wind bone
#

🤔

pulsar iris
#

Spirit fear more like it

wind bone
#

I talked about this yesterday a little but it wasn’t centered around that

#

So basically my thoughts were that we as sky children are a fragmented version of the eden elder (and is why we don’t see them in game in person at all)

#

And us going through the game is us regaining our memories of our past life and fixing things

hoary violet
#

Broken children running around trying to fix the mess they made

#

That’s so sad pCry

graceful osprey
#

i'm tired i'm not gonna type unless if I see aomething really interesting

lament crater
#

I always imagined that when skykids basically die, their light goes to build the Eden Elder back up, but of course is torn away for rebirth once more
Idk what myth I referenced for that, I used this concept for my Eden Elder fanfiction

graceful osprey
#

its only 7 pm for me

hoary violet
#

Brb

I’m gonna log off now, I hope I contributed to this channel

these were some cool theories

Anyone up for some speculation on how the Season of Dreams affects the "life's journey" in the levels of Sky?

#

Apologies for the wall of text in advance, but here goes...

#

Of all the things in the Season of Dreams, there is one thing I keep coming back to, both ingame, and in thought, which is this new gate in the coliseum at the end of the valley races.

I love how we can make valley into a circuit in game, but what brings me back to it in thought is how it affects the linear "life's journey" throughout the realms in Sky.

Without dreams, after the races finish, we plunge into the wasteland.
However, with dreams there is an opportunity to revisit another of Sky's and lifes paths.

The name Dreams fits too, after one path in life ends, we can choose to dwell on how great that time was and pass into difficult times. But, with a dream, you can choose another path and though different, we can spend more time in the clouds, or citadel, it may be different, but it is more rewarding.

What is more, is that to follow your dreams is not simple or easy, you must have faced some adversity, represented by the wasteland spirit requirement in the constellation gate, and additionally you need to make our way up a long hill and through dark tunnels before you can get back to where you started, like when following your dreams in life.

Valley is the height of civilization for the ancestor spirits in Sky, but it is through the lowest levels of that civilization where some of the greatest opportunities and powerful dreams happen.

The more I think about the area, themes and season in general, the more I discover.

Thanks for reading this wild speculation, and keep Dreaming 💤💭

Wich other door?...

wise cloak
#

On the other side

rigid ember
#

In the left?

supple sluice
#

Well, the Hermit valley has yet to be opened...

#

So maybe it leads there

#

I doubt there's... 2 villages...

#

Or maybe that's for the Rich?

rigid ember
willow shoal
#

what?

rigid ember
#

Uhhh

#

If it's in the left it leads to inside,where you go meet the elders

supple sluice
#

Ah.

rigid ember
livid valley
#

The temples

rigid ember
#

Yeah,okay.

#

But

#

Why are there boats?

livid valley
#

I can't remember..damn

supple sluice
#

There's boats to probably get into the temple

rigid ember
#

And jellyfish all over the place?

supple sluice
#

And also boats are general transports

rigid ember
#

Maybe it was before eden?

#

They're flying boats

wise cloak
supple sluice
#

Yeah, they're a thing in this game

livid valley
#

Boats fly

rigid ember
#

Most likely to ship something,because they have something in there

supple sluice
#

Yep

rigid ember
#

Also,they go all alone?

supple sluice
#

Well

#

I think they have crews

#

My memory on the cutscene for the waving Bellmaker is off

rigid ember
#

We can tell that for the boat in Wasteland

supple sluice
#

Yeah...

livid valley
#

The wasteland boat seems to be not transporting anything

#

The small one

rigid ember
#

Yes

supple sluice
#

To me that just tells me the wasteland boat might be carried by us

rigid ember
#

There are boats all over the realms tho

supple sluice
#

Or enchanted to follow a strict course idk

#

Yep

rigid ember
#

And

livid valley
#

Boats must be a common transport

rigid ember
#

Do you guys remember the no no emote?

supple sluice
#

There's no other transportation system XD

rigid ember
#

From Isle?

supple sluice
#

Denying guy?

#

Yeah

livid valley
#

Ok

rigid ember
#

It has that vase thing in the back

supple sluice
#

We don't know what they're rejecting

#

Oh!

#

Yeah!

rigid ember
#

That appears in the drawings in the boats

supple sluice
#

Yep

rigid ember
#

I'm not sure why it has that there

livid valley
#

Could be a sign that it needed to be transported

rigid ember
#

Maybe

supple sluice
#

Yeah

rigid ember
#

Question

supple sluice
#

I think the Prairie people shipped light in jars to the forest to be turned into diamonds

hidden scaffold
livid valley
#

You mean butterflies

rigid ember
supple sluice
#

Well-

#

Light and butterflies yes

rigid ember
livid valley
#

Well is most likely to be butterflies

rigid ember
#

For sure

supple sluice
#

Which means animal mistreatment is... Sadly a pert of the theorized lore.

livid valley
#

They used creatures to create powrr source

hidden scaffold
#

hey good idea

i think they did the same to mantas as well

livid valley
#

Yep mantas too

supple sluice
#

Yeah

#

That's the theory

livid valley
#

Manta juicer

rigid ember
#

Tree's leafs are made out of clouds

supple sluice
#

But i don't exactly like the idea of forest being a factory area cus to me it doesn't explain anything in the rest of forest

rigid ember
#

Makes sense for the raining in forest

#

...because it's a forest full of trees.

supple sluice
#

You'd think the forest would have more factories and mines...

rigid ember
#

Yeah

supple sluice
#

So idk

rigid ember
#

But the crying emote does do mining

supple sluice
#

Yep

livid valley
#

Light miner

supple sluice
#

.... And some caves and such might be mines too idk

rigid ember
#

Now that I think of it

livid valley
#

Forest is a good area for resources

rigid ember
#

The shivering emote is close to a grave like thing

#

Why would it be?

supple sluice
#

Yeah

#

.... WAIT WHY IS THERE A TOMBSTONE IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR ENTRANCE

rigid ember
supple sluice
#

I-

#

FOREST??? YOU GOOD???

rigid ember
#

how does mama forest has so much power over a hammer and light

livid valley

#

Mama forest and forest elder are the same

#

I just like calling it mama forest hehe pEyes

livid valley
#

No no I mean the power

Pfff

rigid ember
#

o h

#

i know what u mean now

livid valley

I see elders as the minor God's

supple sluice

Being send down by Megan- wait I mean megabird

rigid ember

welp

supple sluice

And the Megabird is -

#

HHHHH

rigid ember
#

Makes sense?

supple sluice
#

It's so much easier to say Megannnnn

rigid ember
#

back to the topic pOhReally

livid valley
#

Megabird the the Major God only one mind you is the one who creates

rigid ember
#

where was there more writing?

livid valley
#

A irresponsible God at least

rigid ember
#

Sanctuary,Prarie,Forest,Isle,Cave of prophecies...

#

A lot of places

#

Is there any writing in Valley?

#

Writing like drawings

livid valley
#

There is almost no writungs about megabird

#

Writings

rigid ember
livid valley
#

You can only see her at orbit

#

k

livid valley
#

The end credits too

rigid ember
#

Is there in Wasteland?...

#

Or in Vault

#

Eden?

livid valley
#

Eden no

rigid ember
#

I don't think there is in the village of dreams?

livid valley
#

Nah

#

Only in the sky of orbit

rigid ember
#

So eden and village of dreams nlt

livid valley

Still a non appearance character still a very important one

"Dear Children, no hope was lost,
We saw of your return to us."
and then
Children of light are of new generation
the first quote seems to say skids used to exist before the fall
but the second quote says that skids are new to the world...
which can only mean one thing.... skids are pieces of smth or someone that had a lot of power and influence...
influence enough to know the rhythm troupe (knowing ppl from outside the kingdom)
influence enough to make the elders wait for your return...
you know where im going with this...
