you know
some spirits were harvesting some kind of powerful recourse
in hidden forest
oh?
they were harvesting oranges i say
the stomp spirit’s memory
she holds an orange

throw tiny oranges
clementines? tangerines?
candle light? tiny oranges
hmm yes, its all coming together
🧠
you know the orange cape used to be the starting cape for sky. that's why it's in the starter pack now 👁️
Wait fr?
this is all a conspiracy
TGC gave us hints all along
yeah! you can see it in the old concept art and it was there at the beginning of softlaunch and beta

next season is season of oranges. Then we will truly learn the lore of the oranges
can confirm tgc just called me on speed dial and told me to stop spreading their true intentions /j
it all connects.... to orange
ive been summoned
the biggest orange of all is in the citadel. maybe the answers are there
Even the first season had orange as its color scheme...,
and now all seasons do.....
seasonal candles are orange
we've been looking at the diamond references for so long that we didnt notice all the orange references omg
we dont need to talk about lightseekers
lightseekers was the first season that had the floating light. only through lightseekers the orange light in forest was possible
its all connected
what about belonging
Mods? WHERE?! 
what about belonging, skybot?
I don't know if they're watching tho...
the oranges are watching? 👁️
Maybe one day I can be a real Skykid! 
are you... an orange? 👁️
I know, what is up with them? We're trying to figure it out 

the poor manta that gets krilled in wasteland.... does anyone think could this be the same manta that we see later on in vault? the manta bones which have candles surrounding it, and the option to bring it back to life?
i've always wondered about that! we see mantas in prairie, forest and valley, too. maybe that one follow us in our journey? 
aaaw and the little guy either got lost following us or sacrificed itself so we can sneak past the krill

To prevent being sad about the manta getting eaten I like to think that we also see the manta in eden and it gets reborn with us
Lunar new year maybe-
i just grew a beancell
there's this idea that valley represents sunset, as well as representing the peak of the sky civilisation before it fell
and what colour is a sunset? Orange 🍊
can we eat the sun
forbidden snack
The sun is just a large orange

Are we eating oranges in here
Yo there were a ton of sheps and elders in here
I feel threatened
it’s all oranges? always has been 
Fun fact: it has been scientifically proven looking at or smelling an orange can make you happy
Mega dark bird picture disappeared
This skid's face-
For one, it's meme worthy
Secondly, this seems to hint to why the skid's eyes are closed when they take off the mask
Jkjk
Is there an alphabet in sky?
Like are there any letters/characters that we see in the game or are stories only communicated through the murals
because I’m gonna work on a collage from the perspective of a skykid and I wasn’t sure if there was writing from the game that I could include
Oh
at the end of confetti cousin’s memory we ring a bell to them. what’s the bell for
its from season of belonging
the story of belonging was that grandma gave you a bell to get the rest of the family back home for dinner
and so at the end of each belonging spirit memory, you ring a bell ^^
aw that’s cute
Rip belonging
Are these mantas
wondering if skykids get ptsd from the eden thing
H m m m m
They look more like birds
Why do I not see any shadow for the cape-
But they could also be mantas since there are murals where mantas look like that
coding?
Gameplay-wise, so that your phone doesn't explode
Lore-wise, they're made of light
Mood
I uh
I'mma change mine lel
bro the firearm rule
Ksdnbd emilene
i honestly want to think that's a bug but that might be a interesting theory
so that the phone doesnt overheat even more than in already does
but lore wise fans have said that the cape is made of light, hence why there is no shadow
Capes being made of light is one of the dev's headcanons- and I think I can see that being the case with the other cosmetics somehow?
Because when we purchase cosmetics all we're doing with the spirits is exchanging light and like... candles
They kneel and they do the sparkly thing
blood cape
BLOOD CAPE?!
forgot who mentioned it in chat but the y said it
oh geez I'm reminded of that one novel my classmate showed
I pRomiSe tHis iS The lAst TimE jwjabsuisjabsj
No, this isn't the rebirth process, although that is part of the background. Its a stylized version of the old backstory timeline image where the Prince is granted the Flame by the Megabird and Creatures
~~catch me showing up almost an hour late to the convo
~~
It's been more than an hour bricky
What does this candle pattern represents it's by the shy spirit
I can’t believe blood cape made a return after all this time
I think candles are just... Put however the hell the game devs wanted it to
Like there's a heart shape in the prophecy cave, a smiley in Prairie temple, a target in Prairie, etc.
Yes, in my lore they can get flashbacks etc
And wow lore chat dead
Hmmm by what you mean "flashbacks" i just came up with a theory
So Megan is bad bad and she erased sky kid's memories from their "past lives" and forced them to go through the same cycle over and over again
Quick question how do you explain the wing buffs if they can't remember anything?
Sky kids who go through eden are reborn and mostly have the memories erased but the still can have little flashes like nightmares, events that trigger the memories, etc
And I dunno, its still a wip
woah
The first go around, a skid would have no knowledge of how to get stronger, or what the true purpose of a winged light even is
Hmm that's true
So when they unlock wing buffs and they're reborn, but their memories are erased, and they go on to collect the winged lights again, how do you explain the ones that they already carry?
Maybe part of it is instinctive, if that's their purpose ya know
So like, muscle memory?
But I don't know if there are a few selective memories they do keep
Or like that
Ah gtg
an impulsive need to kidnap static glowing children
Ues
Mmkie then, cya
Ok bye now gkgfhl
Well......the player might have already memorised all the areas?
That's if we consider the player and the skid as one and the same
Our consciousness and the skid's consciousness as one- but we're not the ones having our memories erased in this take?
Well congrats on finishing enchantment ark fam
The people with umbrellas and hats in the murals on the ark
They seem to be the lightseekers
Okay speaking of light orbs
Light orbs,, uhhh orbs of light (diff from the LS light orbs) seem to be dropped by birbs
From laughing lightcatcher's memories
This is lore related to Eden but it’s lore so I wanna ask it here. Also I spoilered everything just in case. ||Does anything happen if you touch the heart?? CAN you touch the heart?? I’ve gotten close but I need to go in full after getting the wax||
Also u don't have to spoiler eden stuff here hh
hmmm.... given that the red diamond is a highly unstable battery pack capable of decimating an entire realm, i would say it'd melt your hand off or blow it up....
maybe your hand would join the flying, charred remains of the ancestors and the king's mech...
yes....
i have a theory abt that...
Mind sharing? 👀
Swallows never land. They are born flying and die flying. They feed on small plants or seeds floating in the air to maintain their organic bodies by turning it into light. When swallows make excess light, it all snowballs together because of their formation when they fly, and makes a large orb of light. These orbs are used as fertilizers, or food for other light creatures.
^that
by swallows, i mean light swallows
(Pseudochelidon chartam)
A similar boat is seen in the Isle temple and Slumbering Shipwright's desk, it seems to be a boat style specifically made for miniatures as there's no style like that in the big boats we currently see in sky
T 

Heyy
want to ask something
Go on uvu
This is my friend, they post on instagram about “5 facts in vault of knowledge” and this is one of them. Is it okkay to not spoiler the office place?
U dont need to
The name of this chat already says theres gonna be spoilers here
So what exactly about office do u wish to ask about?
Eh- I wrote it wrongly
O
So that photo I just sent is one of my friend’s post on instagram. And they post “5 facts in vault of knowledge”, and one of them is office place, is it okkay?
Since office is a secret place(?)
Just an FYI that the office is in a limbo that most consider not integral to the story of sky as it’s a play on the office at thatgamecompany office and not really a part of the sky kingdom
It should be okayyy, i think
Eh
Okkay then just kinda worried about them since its a secret place
Wait- so..?
the office is an easter egg and it doesnt contribute to any of the lore
Exactly What Nicorange said
What’s qnh?
sorry im dragging the topic off, i just swear ive seen you before ^^;;; and yes questions and help
Should I tell my friend to not post it? Im kinda confused
I may have asked questions about how beta works several months ago
hmm? disney what do you mean?
the picture is allowed, it just that theres no lore in the actual place
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
Posting a picture on your Instagram is acceptable. If they have a fan base that’s new to sky a Spoiler tag would only be polite if they are posting about something that is in the testing/beta phases of development. Office in the live game is not in development. So I see no issues with your friend posting pictures about office and it’s “secrets” on their personal Instagram
i wanna know more about e d e n
First you must tell us what you already know so we know where to start from
Um hard to explain but I'll try
Sooo
UHm
How to explain dat-
Well I the fallen were stars ig? And u gotta give ur light to them-
And um
Also getting to the Light wasn't your actual goal from the start-
Aaaa okkayyyy got it now. But why does office need to be spoiler in looking-for-group-live?
And elder
The castle you broke was Eden's temple ig
Actually not only the spirits
not only-lemme remind u
All light creatures
Fallen Children
Child of Light
Spirits---
"Bring our lost stars home"
its a secret area
Because in looking for group there is a large majority of moths that you don’t want to spoiler the fun of finding office
Just get the stars-
Okay so you have a goo understand pretty much the basics of Eden. So.... what questions do you have for us?
Ohh light creatures, you were right
But its also the same with my friend’s instagram, probably there are some moths thats following my friend(?)
I wonder if we actually can burn the crabs to get light...
Could be. But they go there probably to find secrets and fun stuff. In looking for group your not looking for spoiler but for friends
I got a dream that a krill will drop crabs on us and when we burn it they will give us light-
Thats sounds neat tbh
They here reffering by burning crabs btw, not the krill
O.O kinda understand it now
I. Tried burning the crabs in the flames. Didn’t work 
We can get meat 🍖 if we burn them
It’s so unfair. He can and we cannot
@hushed steeple @compact olive @nova tiger @restive peak thankss yall😭 and sorry aswell, have a great day
Yum



Anywya
back to lore tho HSJDHSJ
This is lore
Burning eating crab
Not regular behavior
Another clue the spirits wandered from the path of light?
The spirit that chases the crabs in wl. It eats the crabs. Why?
Hunger. Duh. But we didn’t see them eating creatures before
Because they h u n g r y
Ksks
If you see closely, the dancing guy in dream village does drinking something
(O_O)
What if Megabird seeds ancestors, and puts elders in charge of them, on different planets to help guide creatures of light back to the beacon to harvest its light. And the reason they need the Ancestor help is because some planets have natural darkness growing on it and fire 🔥 is needed to burn darkness not regular light. That’s why ancestors make candles 🕯 to help creatures of light not get captured by darkness....
But this planet the ancestors messed up and tried harnessing darkness instead of destroying it ???????
Did they eat the manta before?
Manta is light so idk about that
Could just be water
What was their sustenance
Or did they not need any and crab eating guy did need it at the end of the history
I mean all that guy brought to GW is guitar and cape. You cant expect them to eat their guitar-
Jk jk
Well ye. But all spirit have barely anything to feed themselves
Crabs were not there in isle or prairie
What did they eat there?
Hmm 
i was told to post it here instead 
sorre imma delet rn :))
they were like plants
taaaste the sunlight
and crabs probably weren't healthy anyway
they dont look so good
maybe the guitar belonging dad was starving
hm... or maybe
what if they did eat crabs
crabs could be a common creature in forest and they would hunt for them there and ship it to other realms, just like they shipped butterflies to forest
thats why there arent many crabs left in forest and thats why there are so many in wasteland
I image that less peeps would go hunt crabs there, few could flee from the forest and make a big crab population there
well uh.. as im writing it im starting to notice that it doesnt make much sense but uh..
idk, might be a cool little theory just to kill the time and the chat
corrupted crabs would leave darkness inside you, consuming your light, meaning you gain no nutrition
Technically that's still poison
Too much junk food is bad for your health, kids- even if you're middle-aged
Maybe thats how the belonging family died they ate poisonous crabs?
They did have dinner in the ending
How did the season of sanctuary die? Seizures?
Because they take a picture at the end
I hope tahts not the case-
the grumpy spirit could be died from fall from the mountain- im sorry
jellyfish whisperer could died because crabs attack or fall from the jellyfish//or maybe got the venom thingy?
I DONT KNOOOOW
Jelly whisperer : died because of crabs
Crab dancer : haha newbie
maybe rallying thrillseeker died because drowned? the manta jumpsuit look like for swimming
timid died from the island
ok this is dark i must stop if this was too much
i want to think Jelly Whisperer died from getting yeeted into a wall
I think the sanctuary spirits died because of a tsunami
Tsunami implies there's been an earthquake of some sort elsewhere
Volcano
sure it might be underwater but
Tsunamis mostly form from earthquakes, not volcanoes
I have a feeling that after an eruption an tsunami happened
anything could be poisonous if you eat enough
Still I don't deny that there MIGHT be a volcano somewhere
Albeit underwater because we see little evidence of there being one above sea-level
That’s the whole entire island
geysers intensify
Then wouldn't the spirits have died from the explosion rather than the aftermath?
There's barely anywhere to escape to in Sanctuary
rallying thrillseeker could died cause geysers smh

I mean- if you're implying that Sanctuary itself was the volcano
the bug where the spirit was at the top of the geyser //or its was the spirit memory
he got a burn and died from infection because sanctuary is a tropical zone
Then it'd be pretty difficult to survive that initial explosion- especially on somewhere as isolated as Sanctuary
That was in the spirits memory
then geyser
Like- you can't hide underground in case lava spews or there's some sorta cave-in
the spirit playing with the geyser , but then the geyser activated and RT go we e e e died
The floating islands was the best option for survival
timid might died because fall from there
Then they'd be safe from a tsunami too, wouldn't they
If they'd all escaped to a floating island really the worst thing that would happen is that they'd starve
I can't imagine that a tsunami would reach that high up
how abt the chilling sunbather ?
i have no idea what whirlwinds are but what about whirlwinds
WHAT IS WHIRLWINDS
idk which whirlwinds ya'll are referring to like is this about the one in Wasteland or...?
Speaking of whirlwinds though maybe it was a typhoon of some kind that killed the Sanc people
this is a random theory but what if ||manta tuna king ate them||
that... Is terrifying-
nah nah keep going- if that thing has a mouth
cursed
It'd be scarily plausible-
its plausible, theyre sea animals right?
they remind me of whales... are you all know what whales do (TO EAT)
open their massive jaws and let you stare in the face of inevitability as you're helplessly swallowed whole
what if the spirits used the big manta for the way to that top thing part
but
they fell off
wonder if the surface tension could kill them if they fell off high enough
i feel like this is a really bad topic to discuss
it seems so disturbing SDHJDHSAJK
im totally fine with it, idk about the server rules tho
I think sanctuary spirts drowned
drowning is a plausible explanation
hikinh grouch had a realy difficult path... maybe.... ??????????????????? 
Maybe
Sad
oh my god it was a mistake to look it up
If they fell from high enough, the fall would very much kill them
And if they didn't die from the fall they'd be severely crippled
Welp uhm i just came here and saw this topic
All I know is that the belly rub spirit was crabbed way too much 
Crippled enough that they'd just drown because they're too injured to swim to a safe place
The rub spirt prolly ate crabs and got poisoned
mmm, rub spirit was really lazy wasnt it?
Sanc guide seemed like they wouldn't leave him alone to die in that cave but maybe his habits just got a little too unhealthy?
How would you eat it tho?

Don’t ask the belly rub spirit, ask this spirit 
Wasteland does indeed have a spitroast of crabs- it's where you find Belonging Dad
There's also a bonfire in Sanc somewhere
Yes
Yeah i think he got hungry so
forgot where this came from, but im pretty sure that spirit memories are like a memory they keep close, more than how they died except "faint" spirit, they probably showed us faint spirit dying and the skykids thought the spirit was playing dead or fainted or something

He bought crsbs for the family and they got poisonef
oh, also yawn too
Man

Fainting Warrior: writing his will in his mind
Skid: hehe body go floop
Man this hurts
if you dig through theories
So the spirts accidentally killed themself
theyre darn dark
oh very
Yes
It comes with the existential horror that is the rebirth cycle and the nature of sky children running around in a corpse of a kingdom
i mean
Ye
prairie is theorized to work the people to make transportations
Hn
mantas, birds, butterflies
those things gon get juiced to make even better transportation
"crying light miner"
that kind of works out with the theory of making the people mine diamonds for grinding the animals up for light/diamonds
.....i think
The plant on top of the cave.
Just like my orange pulp
trying to make my words into sentences
theory was that creatures of light were getting grinded to make the diamonds or something, i think
Yeah it was in the concept arts
Yeah we observed that, the grinder in forest temple and the first time we see a krill
Yep
wasteland has the broken down thing the same as foret
Lmao floshie there is lore
Yep
Yes

Yes lol you name
lots of people probably thought but im geussing the krills broke the temple down
Lol pyre
Ofc
im reffering to a mod statement dont worry too much lol-
Oki
NO I KNOW THEY ARE JUST JOKING I CANT HELP MYSELF OKAY-
When there was so much diamond tech that darkness came
Apparently they're as old as Prophecy, so it's unlikely they're mechanical
I think they are corrupted
reminds me of the plot of darling in franxx SJHDJ
Krills first apepared after the CoL claimed the elements, it seems
I still think sky kids can turn into krills
what was it? the magma? attracted the klaxosaurs
ill be back, need to take dog to vet
are you reffering to Seth from StarmyBunny 
Oh i watch that
***hey how did you know
***
Feels goes 
I wanna ask though- how can a skid turn into a krill?
Uhm idk
That depends on the death
The timeliness is unlikely to me-
we have ark murals right??
so do they just like- grow into an avatar of destruction
Lol
And what constitutes as corruption in this case?
Nop
could they have also been corrupted bc of the stuff
No light krill
When you only have golden paint
death by golden wasteland or eden stuff in general makes you a krill. Getting killed in the end part of eden no
interesting
The darkstone one that can sip light can maybe make light creatues corrupetx
wasnt there a theory on eden being a broken down factory too
you listen to bo en, great taste 
The crusher is a factory
ohh right
I dont think they would build factory near holy land-
i think of eden of another industrial city and source of power, (GONE WRONG NOT CLICKBAIT)
i havent checked up on this channel ever since lyst was gone so dont ask me HSJHDKJSSDS
i can only remember bits that jay and lyst were theorizing
Eden I think could still have been industrial to some extent
Like those buildings with the krill
Hmm indeed
Yes
They felt like they were a processing plant for smthn
Also those red crystals...
I think those are dark stone
Oh ye- about those red crystals
Do you think they made red crystal from darkness plants?
You know how they suck up light
Yes
Where did i get a ping fro-
And that one space had a lot of tiny red stones plastered on the walls
Something was inside and it's having its light extracted
You can see it in meantions
This!
at least that's what I think
E, k
Mentions heh
Yooo imagine if they actually trapped a manta inside-
DONT HURT THE MANTAS AGAIN AAAAA
several mantas
One off my theories is that they used to farm the crystals in the kingdom (when the were blue) then one day they turned red (just like a sign of rabies ( u die)) it went all wrong
Or really anything with light
so potentially if that building was active if you put a bunch of skids in it
several mantas are typing...
It'd be like a brazier they take the light and then you're with corpses
By inside you are reffering the tubes with smol red crystals right?
i felt like the generation of these individuals wanted to achieve and circle their whole power in eden, and just like valley of triumph, make it industrial for their modern accord. such as the beginning of the game expressing if only the elders have listened, i felt like the greed of storing and using the power from red crystals is what brought them to their downfall :v
kind of like journey but way more subtle
Interesting thought 
Journey =/= sky just remember
i know, but i can connect my theories about it
Tbh im impressed that most TGC games are about the aftermath of a civilization downfall
post-apocalypses are my favorite-
Yes it’s all about sending the message
Saaaaame
it's a pretty heavy subject that many games have tackled, some better and more bold than others
like the last guardian for example
but ye that's how i view eden
Lmao you too
O, bo en :0
i have returned
Welcome
lore
this is giving me serious star trek "the burn" flash backs
boom goes the dilithium
that theory is actually something similar i brewed up for my own little thing
huh...
u think a ||little kelpien living in a simulation|| caused the fall of the kingdom too?
lol
oh im talking about willow's theory
oh ok nvm
they took too much power and the energy that they were harvesting went "lol sike"
connects back to eden
i believe its all the same power ooOooOoOoOOOO spooky
The winged lights might be the souls of the statues in eden
yes
they are
i think
the winged light do BELONG to the statues according to what the devs say, but if they are souls... hmm idk...
so I have some theory's on rain
one that's a bit out there and one that's slightly reasonable
what y'all want to hear/read?
(reasonable)
assuming that sky's atmosphere isn't quite the same as ours it could have less air resistance meaning that the rain falls harder, faster and would probably hurt
me talking about rain
What if air resistant is high as we and giant creatures can fly but water isn't water
Or air isn't air
(not as reasonable)
this is assuming that all water we see not falling or toxic is salt water
since rain water is usually always fresh water and it falling hurts us/our capes while all other (clean) water doesn't
so my thinking is that the salt content of the water is what keeps us safe. since salt is a crystal like structure it could be reflecting our light back on to us keeping the light in the cape
since fresh water as you know doesn't have salt in it that could be a reason why we lose light to rain
thoughts?
I know I'm stretching on that second one but I kinda like it
it is kind of a stretch, especially considering the water in valley is likely fresh (result of a melting glacier, glaciers are rarely salt water iirc, and it was called "fresh" or "clean" in enchantment) and we're able to swim fine in it
well I guess we can't know unless we somehow can test the salinity of water in a game
lol i only thought of sunlight supporting the skykid's body, being able to withstand water, although it doesnt make sense
i dont worry about it much though
but I did say "assuming all water that isn't falling or toxic is salt water" since that's the only way the theory works
question: Do skids breathe???? Like, they can go underwater and in space no problem. So it brings up the question if they need oxygen. Wait no a better question is WHERE IS THE MOUTH?? HOW DO THEY MAKE SOUNDS??
well you see I think they have vocal chords like we do but they don't use air to make sounds with it
instead of air they use the light the hold in them to make sounds like that of the spirits
or it could be magic
who knows
I think skids are like golems. They don’t need to breathe and make sound the same way mantas and birds do, despite having no visible mouth.
What is the difference between Elders and Ancestors?
elders: the big guys we see in temple cutscenens
ancestors: spirits but a different name
I want to talk about Enchantment
Well it's a mask but if you're talking how when we put the no mask cosmetic on then i think it's bc developing faces into the game would make us look weird
Also we don't technically need to breathe because we are made of light and we are an embodiment of megan and i don't think creature of light and darkness are actual organisms with real matter it's just matter formed by light molecules combining and hardening
we are minians
Technically but.....eh? Technically we are an embodiment of light itself not actually minions
megabird is "megan" right or is that smth else
megabird has been nicknamed megan but its not canon
Skykids implies the existence of Groundkids
Also what do you call an adult sky kid? Skyman? Skykin? Big Bird?
Sky adult ig
Ooh what about ✨SkyLords✨
Sky kids don't grow up-

Sky kids just don't get taller, doesn't mean they are kids
Hell they could be one hundred year olds
And still resemble the appearance of s child
Well if you count the rebirths from going through eden, all my skids are on avg. 1 week old
I mean.. one week old on the kingdom of sky, not when they were also stars in space :p
well, I have talked about them breathing through their eye holes. Although the no mask amkes tge eyes closed, and they would probably have to breath through their skin, if it is porous
I want
@west hazel tell me all the reasons why
is not a whale
and the sanctuary one is one
here
- the whale has the same tail shape
- They are the same size
- They don't recharge your cape
might just be corrupted
's emoji is called whale
Thats what I believe
- They basically have the same shape
- same design
@steady tundra Mantas fly and spirit mantas fly. they are the same shape. However, the arowana has a vertically flat tail, while the sanctuary whale's is more skinny and whale-like. The arowana's body is more vertically flat, while the sanctuary whale's is more traditionally whale shaped. The sanctuary whale goes only in the water (it comes out for a bit) while the arowana is in the air. and they also just look different
Mantas also go in the water, but spirit mantas don't
there is no water near spirit mantas, so they couldn't
the whale has the same animations like the sanctuary whale
there is no water near whales, so they couldn't
the arowanas have very different body shapes than sanctuary whale
It isn't that different
they have the same desgin
*design
The only places they appear are eden, wasteland clouds, forest cave, which all don't have water
Scantuary one is not a whale it's a elder manta 
and mega bird doesn't really look like a bird right?
arowanas is more blocky and the tail doesn't get skinnier, while the whale's tail area is much more slender
mega bird does look like a stylized bird
Then how does a whale not look like a whale?
the giant mantas are mantas?
Krills look like burnt deepfried krills more than alive krill
Yeah, but they still look like krill relatively
The arowana has nothing in common with a whale except for size, however, the sanctuary whale looks exactly like a whale @steady tundra
I mean spirits mantas don't go into water therefore they are not mantas
whales don't go into water therefore they aren't whales
also I added that they have the same animation
They have the shape in common, so they get a pass
The ‘whales’ have a lot in common with arowanas
While having little to nothing in common with whales
Alright then, can't help you then
it's what you think is canon anyways
You ignored all my reasons
I can't explain
Your reasons don’t really make sense hah
Because you don't read them hah
I do, but the fact that they look more like arowanas than whales makes a lot of sense
Does looks matter?
Yep!
Alright then

But they do look like Arowanas
but they don't seem like them
I mean people call Krills centipedes which is fine too
Hah, they do also look a bit like centipedes
Also, whales move their tales up and down to move, while arowanas move them side to side, their game counterparts do the same
So aparently there has been water at the forrest? because there is that whale skeleton that gives you a call
you think a tsunami like wave or just higher water levels?
if sky kids dont grow up then what are spirits?
Aren’t they just the dead adults of the sky kid race?
I mean they dress the same, wear the same masks, and cloaks
thay're dead humans
I don’t think Skykids and Spirits are the same, Skykids just dress like them because how else should they dress
they'd have a core of light on the chest if they were skids
tho the cape thing is weird, how does it get flight properities?
were those spirits able to fly?
I don’t think so?
At least it’s hard for me to imagine that 
They seem to use boats for flying
I guess Skykid and Spirit capes are (or were) different despite looking similar
Oh, thinking about them and humans, the spirits don’t have faces (kinda), but the statues in Valley do. How?
Did the spirits have faces before (or do the Elders have faces?)
Or were they just like “You know what, let’s give them faces”? 
that may be because some details like faces fade over time? That'd be strange, can't they see themselves? Then again there are no mirrors in sky 
Maybe they had faces but they lost them when they died?
(...maybe you were trying to say that, idk
)
i don't really know what these spirits actually are
are they your regular spirits that are basically ethereal undead? Or "magic memory dumps"?
I think those are somewhat leftovers from people that lived.
Like, if an irl human attracts a negative spirit, the spirit could stay in their house even if they already left as some kind of leftover from their energy.
(The Elders are powerful spirits and can seem more alive than the other spirits if they desire... in my theory)
if they desire?
They don’t automatically create the illusion of a body when they have energy I guess
The santuary quest giver is a poacher
I said it
He kills mantas for their skin and then gives it to the sky kids as a reward
and they are baby mantas too bc the capes are small enough for us to wear 😦
sANC DAD I TRUSTED YOU-
okay less gruesome alternative uhhh
You know how sometimes people dress like the animal in order to get closer to them- seem less alien and more amiable
And if we go by a headcanon that says that capes are made of light technically it's possible that Sanc dad just made his cape to look like manta
Darn bro I thought that the cape is made out of cloth
Actually I think the spirit’s cape was out of some... fabric and when he didn’t have his body anymore his cape (the one we see now) turned to light like the rest of him.
Our capes are of light in my headcanon therefore our manta cape would be of light too I guess
Yeah that could be true
So I guess no mantas were harmed, if so, only one 
What in the Eden are we discussing!!?!
the front half looks like an arowana but it was officially inspired by the coleacanth so the tail part looks like that i think
that... we dont know
**In my headcanon, sorry
it might be light, it might be imagination according to some theories
I knew it was part coleacanth! Hah I doubted myself when I saw everyone calling it an arowana. Thanks!
(Wait actually I’m not sure what is headcanon what theory anymore
)
The shy monster?
The capes are made of light thing is a headcanon from the devs, that much is there I think
I used to think that was an arapaima
So i know i am late for this but here is proof that a sky childs diaomnd on its chest dissapears
Orange Themed Krill is canon,Reika did this.
krill can drink alcohol confirmed 

ah yes krill having the ability to get drunk, the deepest lore in sky
Remember the almighty M E G G I E
All ppl had diamond has chest
Well, more elder and you
It's like your heart
truly the most complex part of the lore
Have u heard of glass in sky tho?
Lol
The elders and all the dudes with diamonds on their chest don’t gotta glowy dot in it though. Sky kid decides to stuff candle heart in chest where its nice and safe.
Well
When we are grey with no light
The diamond stop glowing too
And we walk like if the chest pain too much and one of the legs hurt
Dunno if the Elders are ‘extinguished’ considering some glow more when getting light. I feel like they where always like that. But. Imagine each elder with a custom heart candle.

Well not sure
They can't make light like us
They had their own power and fact
they need us for to rebuild if I see
Sky kids seem like the only ones with a point of light inside their chest diamonds.
Yea
True. Sky babies can both spread and consume light.
Like between darkness and light
Are the elders part dark too?
No
Eh. I think the part that can use light is the same as the elders. Star power or whatever.
Blackish skin. White hair. Get charged up with light. Clothes get glowing patterns.
The only scene who interesting me the most is when the 2 spirit at Isle of dawn find a skykid
Wondering what they do with it
Some player said we are maybe the elder of eden
My heart says they raise it as their baby but my mind says it has to have something to do with the Prince.
The new big proof that pushed my conviction over the edge is that sky kids get the “crown” constellation.
But also. Dreadlock twins.
I didn't see any throne who is from the prince
Only the 5 elders from the 6
It could still be King without his mountain armor. Like how he presuming its him looks in the race results colosseum.
Despite having different concept names Prince and King are never ever depicted together, much less depicted in a way that would assume there is both of them existing at the same time.
Im on team “they are the same” because of the cool symbolism in the concept art finally.
What if one of them is from darkness and the other one is from light
Nice of the kingdom to let their mortal enemy be king
Lol
I said one of them
After all, only a scream from light creature is enough for to be full
So the idea of lighting up players to see what they really look like. Grey, lacking individuality. While in concept art king fight hes big ol mean n dark n stormy the entire time until you melt your way into his body, to find the Prince. You lit him up, to see his true appearance just as you would a player.
Maybe
granted who knew if the idea of liting up players was even considered then
Still need more teaser
Season of prophecy give us some
Even if my wall is empty about the child of light 
Wall?
I mean the paint
Need a season of all the elders and king in actual cutscenes doing stuff
Lol yea
But prophecy was the only one who we can see about elder
The rest is more in their own character story
....did Castle Eden have staff or servants? Bam they are the new spirits. Go play their memory of taking king tea or something woohoo.
Pppfft i didn't say that
Yeah...I doubt somethin like that would ever happen. No matter how I would love it.
Like season of dreams
I understand for now that we are trying to know about the memory of an old seasonal spirit
Wondering the end but still that for now
At least, yetis are canon now.
Normal day of heroism for good ol yetiman
I'm just stalking-
Golden wasteland and eden might be the same realm
And vault is just a tower to get up higher
maybe
isnt vault that one tower we see at the temple of gw?
i would think it is because its the only tower that goes up (and theres no bigger tower behind it)
Uuuuuh does the manta whisperer got changed too? They didn't have cutscene, but their quest to collect memories got changed
And also they will release big mantas that will fly around citadel after we completed their memories
that's not vault, its just a king statue on top of the temple
Silly theory: I am Oreo
I had this thought, and I need some evidence for this to be debunked.
The 7 realms are similous the days of the week, with Eden as sunday
Sbjskannsjsiajbabakak
O
Because Eden is a reset- smart
Oh
Eden is more enjoyable than a Sunday, tho
(Just an interpretation) Candles also have alot of connection to "the past"
They can light you and your cape back to it's previous, fully charged state
Lighting the darkstones in the forest (the temples towards the forest altar) brings the bridges back in a way it looks like you're rewinding time to before they were broken
When you candle a spirit, you relive it's memories (past)
Stranger skids can be like blurry memories, and candling them is like remembering who they were
Candling those realm altars lets you visit those elders, give them light, and help them restore their former glory
When candling darkplants, you see light particles moving inward alongside the actual plant, like time was turning back/ growing in reverse
Idk
Also since sky has alot going on about cycles, the days of the week is also a cycle
Ok
There is also a death and rebirth cycle
Wait just a sec
That would make the wasteland friday
Friday is considered unlucky 
Maybe Candles are a metaphor for memory? Or tradition?
Whenever I dream of other people, I thought they were also dreaming and we were like in the same dream server
WhAt iF sKY iS a DreAm aNd wE aRe juSt iN thE sAmE dReaM sErvEr
Jkjk
I have a theory on rain in hidden forest
It only affects skykids
Fire gives sky kids energy
The opposite of fire is water
However
What about the water in other areas?
?
Maybe the water in the rainforest and wasteland in particular is contaminated-
Same goes for you 
Ah yes
It seems that darkness dominated areas has dangerous waters
I just realized || the dog in the "yes" emoji is the one we summon in the prairie ||
I know this chat doesn't need spoiler tagging but-
It's the candle up emote
Speaking of candles 
OML I FORGOT TO CANDLE RUN
KSJSBSBSISJSHSJS
I just need 2 moar to get all the spirit hearts 
It was nice talking to you tho
It's also nice to talk to you
Perhaps they are trying to summon the dog
chants in dog summon
I mean... Devs stated that 'sky is the world of dream' with office as Real world
....i hate Grammarly sometimes
You're using the browser? >.>
Lmao
Im using the keyboard app
Oreo is a god it's canon
"Manta" is a kind of animal
But apparently, "Manta" also refers to:
The six other doors inside the GW temple - has it been discussed as to what they contain or lead to? 🤔
Idk mayt
alot of the architecture's arches also have the same sillhouette as the vases
17th colossus is behind it 
who knows
Hm, so far we seen krills near whurtle skeletons... what if krills are created from whurtles that died unnaturaly?

That discussion is as old as this chat search whurtles and enjoy 
im totally not asking this for the sake of my sky hc
I personally feel strongly about the Dark Dragons being elder creature’s corpses—twisted by the center of the Storm at Eden due to the mural art that closely resembles the concepts written about them.
Here’s a perfect example of what I’m talking about. You see this page from Tom Zhao concepts talks about Dark Stone and how it affects or “corrupts” things like the King, the descendants(Sky kids) and the Elder creatures.
Well we have literally seen descendants at the center of the Eden storm’s blast 💥 radius and they look very much like that frozen statue in the top right corner. (“The Fallen” that you return light to when you sacrifice yourself)
We’ve also seen dark stone that is jagged like the image on the lower left hand side in Eden storm’s blast 💥 radius. (The jagged red stones that hurt you if you get too close)
And we’ve also seen “Refined dark stone” like the diamond image in the top left hand corner. (The diamonds that power air ships and double doors)
The developers said “the 7th Elder is no longer around to be saved” so we can’t see the corrupted King, but we’ve definitely seen the King’s image in the top center (the king’s statues)
So the only thing on this concept that you have left to see is.... hmm 🤔
Now, Where have a I seen a giant one eye’d creature that looks like an aquatic creature, who sheds particles, before?

Since there is only one image on this concept that we haven’t seen (corrupted king) because the developers confirmed we can’t see it, then I firmly believe this is perfect evidence for the case that Elder Creatures who are corrupted by the Eden Storm are in fact Dark dragons we see roaming the areas in and around the Eden Storm

And red should be death
I beg your pardon? What do you mean?
Apparently they were originally going with an orange versus dark blue theme
Oh
Anyways there was also a theme of blue Vs. red
Really. Those are two definitely opposing colors on the spectrum
What do you think about the dark dragons?
Because of the blue and red eyes!
Here I’ll just explain it with a gif
Do you have a theory for these images ?
Can you elaborate what you mean by coated in light ?
Like the village is darkness and the darkness was then coated by light im not good in explaning things
I can’t tell if you’re pulling my leg or if you feel There’s lore related to the village being coated in light
Okay let’s explore your theory. I’ll try to help you articulate the thoughts your having by asking you certain clarifying questions.
Oki
So before we discuss the darkness... what source of light do you feel is “coating the village” ? (The sun, a supernatural light, etc.)
I think its megabirds light
Okay so that’s a good start. So you feel the village was coated in Mmegabird’s light
Do you feel her light coated the village before, during or after the village was built?
In your theory Do you think this source of light coated the village before or after darkness was upon the village ?
After
And since Megabird was the source of light, do you have an idea of what the source of darkness was that fell upon the village ?
Idk i think the village was already darkness
Since valley has alot of mantas the village doesnt have any
Do you feel the villagers built the village in the darkness ?
Nope they prolly found it
So who do you think built the village in the darkness ?
Ah it probably just spawned out of nowhere in valley
That’s an interesting theory. That darkness created a city....kind of like a trap?
Yeah and the spirts were like lets live in it
Idk but all I know is that the coat of light was made by Megan to protect sk8ter girl
Well i do think it spawnde out of nowhere
I personally subscribe to the idea that the ancestors built everything that wasn’t a natural structure in the sky kingdom. But I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a theory where darkness itself had the power and the agency to manifest “man-made” things to lure unsuspecting living things to it.
That’s pretty original
Anyone else who believes that sk8ter is a sky kid? Just me? Ok.
I can see how you could come to that conclusion. I feel that they refined darkness into the dark stones we see them using.
You don’t think she’s too big to be a sky kid?
Well skids can chage their height
No I think she was “a beta contestant”
Like a prototype
( finally I found the word )
Ah I see. I never entertained the idea because to me she wasn’t the color of a child of light. This could of course be an oversight on my part
I honestly think she was the sky kid in the ushering star gazers memory
And then during the pointing pilgrims story the girl appears again
Now that you mention it I think there’s merit to that theory. Because they did change those memories to include new images
Hm good point
Maybe it’s all her birth life and rebirth cycle we are seeing
makes sense
If that’s the case and she is really the child of light that’s sad for me.
I'm not convinced she's a child of light mostly because of the spirit orb that she has
Hey @queen locust we are talking about sk8ter girl
Oh heya- and here I am kinda having doubts I'm sorry :'DDD
I hope you’re right viridi
That’s because she’s dead and the corpse plant is forming
Yeah it makes sense
The child of light in my eyes was always the prince...and skater girl who also seems to be in the trials at isle of dawn is NOT a prince
I mean- idk there's another layer to my disagreement in that narrative-wise it's kind of... A strange choice
Ik she’s a girl
Depending on who we think the child of light is and what they've done, why would the child of light suddenly gain an affinity for skate-dancing?
I know!!! It’s so... non-prince like.
no really mostly I question this because of the CoL's status as the chosen one in Prophecy
Who knows maybe they rejected the design for her because she was tall
And how much time has passed between Prophecy and Dreams- idk it's extremely circumstantial
Them being the same girl in Candlemaker's memory I can kindof get tho
(O_O) .......
Maybe.....she’s Princess Bet!!!!!!!
Bet??
if I'm gonna be honest- yep
Princess Bet is the long time theory I’ve had that has a looooooong history but I can try to sum it up. Bricky knows all too well who Princess Bet is
Lay it on me I guess

Okay so the prince/CotL is crowned king. In concept art it is said he is crowned king after a great victory in battle. In Valley there are two opposing teams in the games (the twin elders are feminine and masculine) representing two sides of the battle that the prince/king won. The games were made to honor his victory... so who’s the opposing /losing team represent?
If the prince “Aleph” in concept art won then my theory is that “Princess Bet” lost and was scrapped from the history books.
Bet being the second Hebrew letter in their alphabet
Aleph Bet Chet etc.
AYYYY IT WORKED
I HAVE SUMMONED THE BESTIE
happy birthday lol
Ayyyyyy nice- enjoy your weekly trip to hell dude
One thing i noticed
anywho- Princess Bet- awesome concept
me, who named my eden elder character beit: 
Was that the last credits seems to be happening as we fall down from the sky as clouds appear near the last and it looks like we fell from megabird
It’s mainly something I jokingly advocate to Bricky to slowly drive him insane
poor dude fjsjcjkskdks
It’s so out there. And I’m always saying “have they found evidence for Princess Bet yet?”
Well technically- we never DID rule out the possibility of a third candidate for the Eden Elder
Idk if that counts for evidence but it DOES leave room
And guess what?! This skater girl is one bit of lore that actually might be used to continue the Princess Bet saga!!!
Imma just sit back and watch that unfold lmao
darnit Megabird stop throwing your fetuses down
(O_O) is the oval shaped door to rebirth in Orbit ....her.... canal?
oh my god it's Earthbound fetus theory but in reverse
Jk jk-
am I allowed to say those things actually or is there not enough people that are familiar with this-
Oh wow um
I’m never gonna see that door the same way ever again
😳
Me, an Earthbound fan: First time?
Vir what did you do
skxksmxmsmdks Oz started it lmao
First time !!!! Lay it on me!!!
No really it's basically the canal thing but uh- far more demonic
idk if I'm allowed to continue
So Imma leave it at that-
I would like to hear this demonic birthing canal theory
DMs hold on
But yes, anyways, I named my Eden Elder character as Beit, for second-in-command
And the one who is two concept as well
(Help I'm trying to change topics LOL)
So the Princess Bet theory intrigues me 
Well I mean the devs created a game about children and where they are born from....and reborn.... so I mean....
Don’t look away Cyan (holds Cyan in a hug that’s cheek to cheek, wide eyed staring at the orbit door way)
What door
You know that door you go through when you're about to be reborn
The door you run to in orbit to get reborn A.K.A. Splooshed back down to the sky world
The glowing one that looks like a candle kind of
