THIS! this is what i asking!
Probably yes and no
If Sky was a trading kingdom a lot of trade will be disrupted
unless Sky built a Carthage equivalent outside the realms
And the fact that sky kingdom is literally governed by spawn of god itself
i had to look up what thalassocracy was apparently it's a fancy name for a Sea Kingdom
also, what does the wasteland elders mask symbolise? i know isle's mask symbolises the creation of boats, daylight symbolises the creation of light jars, and forest symbolises the creation of power crystals, while valley doesn't have any symbolism becuse they were athletes in the golden age. but what was the symbolisation of wasteland elder mask?
Yeah
About that- I think said god might have had something to do with it
The range of the impact I mean
Maybe there's different pantheons or something
It is possible that their god is just localized in one area
If it were limited to just the Kingdom of Sky, I can see the god themselves making sure that the destruction wasn't spread elsewhere
Ye
and I just realized that this has the same energy as 'are we alone in this universe'
Also, this could be a starting point for any fanfiction really
because plots like a semi-advanced magitek/normal tech race/kingdom accidentally finding sky
Maybe just that he was prepared for war? Though I did see one comparison of the masks to that of the whale/whurtle/whatever skull in Forest
could work
They just have to deal with a god, no biggie
and several million arsonist children
Which according to you shouldn't be a biggie either
Or, they establish trade relations, send a military force to deal with it, or censor and classify it to high heaven
Well, it is a biggie, since we can safely assume that the other race has morals
and you know, not the Orks
Remember that we don't win wars and seek to win, we win then go to war
There's always that margin of error where they assume that these children are barely more than constructs though
Yes
but quantity is quality
why bother when you're gonna get stopped by millions of children on the beachhead
Strange- I've been interpreting it as 'you're not fighting to win, you're fighting to make sure the other side loses'
Well yes, and winning doesn't mean actual victory
winning can mean having the support of your populace
Phyrric victories ahoy- I'm just surprised there aren't enough GW Elder fanfics on this exact thing
What if its something like ancient rome empire?
or preparing for drawn-out conflicts
Like you cant expect the whole world to worship zeus right-
watching this channel is very interesting 👀
Eh, my opinion of war is 'make the enemy lose harder than you'
check Ao3
because you can't really perfectly win in war
Pretty much- there's rubbing salt in the wound in that neither side really believes they're wrong
Ao3 got some good stuff

you will still end up with dead, injured, and crippled
i did all I found was E-rated stuff why are there so m a n y
And traumatized
as well as possible economic and societal setbacks
I'm aware, I'm aware
The most Elder-centric fanfics I found on there were of Forest Elder and her spirits though- thankfully not E-rated because why
Okay so theres 3 krill at the end of Golden Wasteland. Do we think they are different krill or the same krill from previous areas?
it's a possibility for them to be the same krill, but then again, more krill could be outside of the areas we are able to explore in
The mom's hair...looks familiar- 
Then again could've just been reused to save time
yeah it's the lightminer hair
I've always thought they were different krill...

wait, doesn't the other person in the miner's memory look a lot like the candlemaker?
yeah, same here
Imma just go with that haha.
Also does anyone have good photos of those 3 krill at the end of Wasteland? I cant never get a good photo
O o p
Can't believe it took me 4 minutes to understand what you meant 
i think that it's the same spirit 
nvm i forgot the dude in the miner's memory trapped in the darkness has no hair
or maybe he went bald for some reason? idk
Hmm
hey bald is a good hairstyle too ya know >:T
*Saitama is pleased
Where did you get that phrase?
Sup
well
it also can be direct translation from spanish version btw
either way its the same thing
That it would be a memorial.....maybe the statues are actually someone who died.
Wait-
I legit don't know where that is-
Its not....spoilers is it?
Idk-
A h
Ducks, hawks, eagles, owls, phoenixes, and quail all maybe exist. Chickens must be canon.
Probably
@mossy pine come on don't be shy! Let's hear what you gotta say abt this 😉

It's only 11:50 here.
12:50 PM
I say sneep.
Ruby was talking about the possible age of the Sky world! I found this topic very interesting so... We're over here now haha
Wait i think ruby was telling me to go sneep
Cuz i asked if it was better for me to go sneep or to tell theory lmao
Lolllll nvm 🤣🤣 oops
so should i sneep or tell my theory?
I meant to say Lucho should sneep.
Hmmm sneeping is important 🥺
I'd hate to think staying here made you lose sleep 🥺
At the end of the day your health is important

iTs mOre wOrth tO snEep oR tO eXplAin mY thEorY?
Lolllll I think u should sneep
theories can wait
that wasn't a request
sleep n o w
sleep is needed for the body to function well

Maybe one day I can be a real Skykid! 
oh, you don't want to be a skid Sk8terBot
Sleep now or I'll brutally attack you with a candle
Why have a candle
oh, I see there's some threats going on
when you can have a rock
SLEEP OR ELSE UHHH KRILLS
People are threatening me to smack me with candle if im not sneeping
It burns more 
YES
wood
Guess i have no other option
SLEEP OR ELSE K R I L L S
Wood doesn't melt onto your face though!
sleep or arsony
Well goodnight lads and remember to learn history to understand the shape and issues of the world around us

:>
pour a gallon of gasoline and smack him in the face with the container
Ah yes
I made it so close to the end of Eye of Eden today 🙃
Right.
WHO'S SCORE IS A WHOPPING LESS THAT 1 MINUTE
COOL
WHO CAN BEAT THEIR SCORE? FIND OUT NEXT TIME IN...
CHAT GOT KRILLED
Im not sleeping yet
cue ads
F for me
Who's up for talking about the possible age and dimensional position of the Sky world anyone up for discussions? 
Hmmm
my theory is centered around that
sky probably exists as either a planet or a self-contained dimension
I see sky as its own universe
Depends
Like with different laws and everything
If there are other planets
There are
or a different universe/dimension
When i mean universe
o r b i t
As Ruby explained to me, it's interesting how even tho everything seems so underdeveloped and relatively primitive, but at the same civilization has already fallen, primitive AND post apocalyptic
Yes!
Oh ur back 🤣🤣
my theory explains the downfall of the civilization
I thought you left I'm glad huhu I wanted you to explain it 😂
Ooo let's hear it Lucho!
Oh yes Lucho first.
Well, I think sky is just in its own planet or a self contained universe because..... Even if they had super-strong warriors, any civilization with competent and good ranged weapons can just reenact the Scramble of Africa with them
Ok please dont consider this canon cuz it has multiple flaws and stuff that needs to be corrected over time, if you want to criticize my theory then go ahead as long as ur constructive
Oke with that out of the way
oooo this is getting intense
Yes Sky is its own thing, not connected to earth or anything in my theory.
Lets go back
Yeah
Oooo, incoming text wall?
Millions and millions of years into the past
I agree
A civilization of supreme ligjt beings ruled all over the universe
That or they exist in a world where everyone is still in the early Iron Age
Filling it with light, life and prosperity
But as all things that exist in the universe the supreme rulers of light decayed
As darkness rose and took over the vast regions of the universe the rulers of light falled into their deaths or into weaker forms
Could these rulers of light be related to the Eden Elder, Megabird, or the Elders in general given that they were the leaders of the Sky world?
Some of them falled into a planet filled with beings of light which gave the planet the perfect spot for this species to survive
That, or they got Imperium'd.
Imperium'd...?
AKA exterminatused, hunted, and killed
Would this be where the sky kids come in?
As time passed on this new species of spirits began to develope societies and settlements
Yall are really into this lore
haha, you haven't seen Pyre yet (or did you?)
Not me, I am just watching the show. 
Lol yeah I'm crazy 🙃
All over the world of sky the spirits began to expand their influence and to grow their knowledge aspiring to once again rise as supreme rulers of the universe
Despite their progress they lacked something important a leader to follow
I see that
You mean a connected, centralized government
This caused the multiple societies to organize a series of trials which would define who would be crowned as their undoubted leader
OO
since how can you form a society without leadership
Ooh Prophecy... I love Prophecy lore.
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE KING AND THE SKY KIDS
Many aspired to take over as leaders of the spirit kind but only 1 mastered the 4 elements and ascended into a divine being
The kingdom of the ligjt was born with the goal of recovering their divine forms and rule the universe once again
Out of curiosity do we have any evidence that the king was divine?
lol
Well...
The SkyKid like form we see in Ushering Stargazer memory?
There's a theory that that was the king.
Originally a prince.
The kingdom settled its capital around the valley of triumph and from there ownwards the spirit kind grew in numbers and power
He fell out of the Sky so.. maybe he is divine, maybe not.
An army was formed, knowledge was storeged and cities were built
Not my theory, just something I read. 
The king/prince asigned its most loyal delegates to begin investigations to create enough power to make the kingdom able to reach the farthest stars
The time passed and no progress was made until
(Oof that sounds very interesting are we getting a story time)
Wait. It makes more sense if the societies merged and reorganized their armies, not create a new one from scratch
unless
they followed early assyrian army style
iirc
Because, it doesn't make sense to build an army from scratch if you already have those
Deep in the hidden forest a scientist managed to create an artifact which could storage energy and power massive machines
and you just need to merge and reorg
Yess sbfisbfeib- I was going back to see if there was anything on Star field memorial but then I get hit with story time, timelines are great
The diamond was created, an artifact which storaged light and canalized it into powerful bursts of energy
I don't trust those diamonds. 
With this the kingdom could power complex machinery
The golden age of the kingdom began
for anybody who needs help with elder names, here are some ideas from wattpad 
https://www.wattpad.com/956559599-sky-cotl-canon-lore-theories-and-observation-the
yeah im overwhelmed on how smart these people are that they will make books and books of lore for themselves
With machines making transportation easier and soon it may seemed to be possible to reach the stars soon
ay that's from my fic
Wait my friend called
Daleth. Weird.
The prince/king was amazed and ordered mass production of the diamonds
Golden wasteland became the industrial heartland of the kingdom
Us, getting crumbs of the lore and not even comprehending them : 
Yet the creation of diamond caused tons of pollution
Which soon killed the nearby oceand and lifeforms centered around the wasteland
depends on the type of production
Are they burning fuel?
just gonna translate these names to latin bc why not 
Oh that's the explanation for decay, all right.
Yeah, some people calls the elders with different names because of misinformation and mistranslation I think
But it doesn't matter, the names aren't used in the final game anymore
Mmmh, would that mean that Eden also might be a industrial place ?
Is it a byproduct of a chemical change?
Would red crystals be like, failures of the blue ones ?
I believe so. Eden has a bunch of big pipes
Probably rampant
Despite the pollution the king/prince was willing to kill certain areas of its kingdom to achieve its goal
wheeze Exactly
I believe that it's more of like a big city
with an industrial zone
That could be it too.
Ooh.
But not all of its kingdom supported this and many people were against this unrestricted pollution
rather than a full-blown industrial heartland like the Ruhr
me who just plays the game cause its pretty
Yeah I always found it wear that Eden had pipes, like what was the purpose(except to protect from krills)?
And when talks became futile the only solution is war
Civil war stroke against the kingdom with demands to stop the pollution
Like, if I remember the pipes absorb like in light butterflies, so are the crystals made out of them ??
Me trying to comprehend things sbfisbfie-
I think the pipes were used for water or smthng (perhaps water can also be used to uhh energize or smthng? Uh yknow, like the ones irl?)
The rebels had most of the popular support and quickly overrun the kingdom's forces at many realms
update: most the names didn't translate and the ones that did were nonsensical, thanks google 
In middle of this chaos the kingdom authorized operation eden
Question : if plant blues, are plants good-
The creation of the most powerful energy device
They will never call it that blatant, but carry on
The Eye of Eden...
"magic"
Ahshdshfeibfe
That we used to fight in older versions of the game.
Musta malfunctioned.
A massive diamond which could power the kingdom's forces back to victory
how did the krills get to gw and eden?? 
More like Project Ascendancy, or Operation Heaven's Light
"magic"
prolly since the abundance of darkness there, the krills formed or migrated there
Dude we are getting full story time I’m loving this thank you Lucho hefihse
since uhh, there's barely any light ig
Because naming your superweapon eden and making your operation with the same name is an Opsec breach
Yet with the rebels about to strike the king and its loyalists had to stop the rebels at the industrial regions of wasteland
Its canon now that the krills migrate like geese
I, ok
This lead to the tragic battle of golden wasteland
Makes sense
Krills about to migrate : I sense cold from valley’s direction, time to go make offsprings in Eden
Ah yes
That will lead to interesting theories
And all the temples were destroyed yeee..
The rebels at the offensive bombarded the kingdom's lines causing massive cassualties both civilian and military
Ⓜ️🅰️gℹ️c
since you know
This battle also saw the first deployment of krills
yep mAgIc
I literally do not know anyone here i wasn't even gone for that long
Automatized hunters with the sole purpose of killing any light lifeform at sight
This means that they evolved
how did krills get the ability to twist their necks without it falling off?
can we peel krill shells??
where did krills get their spikes???
The battle saw countless deaths but at the end the kingdom was forced to retreat into the vault of knowledge and transport the diamond to the last stronghold of the kingdom
They're hired contortionists from circe de soleil
Yep fits krills accurately. remembers moth days
Like shrimp 🦐
: O
I'm now imagining Krills having part-time jobs as contortionists
thank you Sup, for that mental image
A series of skirmishes started at the vault, between the kingdom at the run, the rebels at the offensive and the vault priests defending their knowledge no matter the cost
i actually snickered at this
Is it confirmed that Krills (in sky) are shrimps?
no
No.
Oh
looks alot like overburnt shrimp
They don't look like dragons to meee.
|| They're Flying burnt tempura ||
And also skykids are very hungry so, krills
I wanted to eat them 😭
At the end of this skirmishes the kingdom successfully entrenched itself at their last stronghold at the top of the highest mountain
Scbisfbsib-
TRUE NDJDJSHSHSHS
Kinda looks like corrupted chinese dragons
The top of the mountain...
ayyy im not the only one that calls them overburnt shimp/tempura
And with this the final battle started
hold on i wanna draw this
The king still had faith that its super diamond could save him from the rebels

Plot twist: the super diamond killed everyone (jk).
A h
plot twist: it's true
The few loyalists to the king held the line as long as they could
This gave enough time to the king to activate his machine causing massibe amounts of energy to the released to space
well, I mean a lot of people believes this theory
so perhaps
This is fascinating

I love how people imply in their theories that the king was a greedy machiavellianist while I'm just sitting here with my assumption the king is the prince in a mecha suit
can relate
I wish I could've fought the Eye of Eden... 
Asking just like that, would crystals be created off dead skykids ? I mean there’s crystals coming off them in Eden so I dunno shfisbfeib-
And with this activation the diamond started to cause gravitational anomalies and began to absorb all of the sorrounding light to power itself
Mostly all of the warriors in the battlefield died moments after the diamond was activated
And with so the once prosperous kingdom began to collapse under a massive storm of darkness
Plot twist: That's what the devs WANTED you to think and the real culprit was Oreo
This storm lasted decades destroying most of the kingdom's infrastructure
Killing milllions only leaving a few alive
Hmm
After decades of endless storm the winds calmed down and the diamond stabalized
Only a few?
Humans or whatever they are went extinct.
It doesn’t seem so that diamond be spouting rocks at me mAn jk
can krills krill whales/whale mantas?
looks at eden hmmm....sure did calmed down /j
Clouds began to sorround the once prosperous empire and the few that were left alive created a vessel that could lead its spirits back to the stars
Valley oob coloseum
Dont whales eat krills irl ?
At first it was a heartless machine which would absorb light and transform it into power to fly
We never see one do that tho
But as time passed this vessel evolved to have feelings and make their own choices
We call em Ancestors I believe
SKYKIDS?
The skykid was born
I mean maybe whales can’t live in Wasteland/Eden so we haven’t seen it yet sshdisb-
And with this from the ruins of a once prosperous and crowded empire
Hmm
A new species began to rise
skykid ref when
Ohh thank you!
But it seems like skids technically had a soul
Yep
Just my opinion
ye, me too
Which woule begin to populate the lands and fill them with live once again
That blue light that follow alive player in eye of eden
LUCHO THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL
O, it's good
L o v e l y 
AUYY 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm extremely fascinated
ur theory was nice :D
I wasn’t there since the start but you are so good at story telling Lucho sbfsibfie-
As i learn more lore my theory shall change
Reminds me of Phoenixes
...
*glances toward Megabirb
Very cool Lucho.
imagine waking up from your 6578294729th eden run and saying "..Ugghhhh.... how many times did I ||become an Ancestor|| again??"
I haven't had much time to theorize quite as much as you have (I'm relatively new) but our theories have a lot in common
Any questions or critics, i remember someone saying they wanted to say some things lmao
Lol I'm just fascinated rn
And thanks for praising my storytelling i do like narrating history this way
Right, inconsistencies
I'm gonna have to read over this a few times 
Shshshshs same
ah, I remember a fan made series made by one of the Lore vets here. It's about Sky's History (though it's mainly on some famous theories but it has canon lore in it) mind if I share it?
Now remember Nathan
@jade river, based on my discussion with pyre, only mangonels and staffers exist in sky
Welp. I will take my leave now because any theories I have pale in comparison.
Farewell, lore discussion.
Please tell them and i'll adress the more i can
So bombardment really isn't possible
From the ruins of old world, the sky children shall arise
Hell yeah
Im not aware what mangonels and staffers are
Make sure you don't come off as dissmisive or else you may share the same fate as a certain someone 
Mangonels are like the sad, little brother of the catapult
Oh like Pompeii ?
Due mainly to the panicking spirit at GW and the shipwreck
O h
Panick spirit runs and hides under the broken temple and hides, if you watch its cutscene you may apreciate how tje building crumbles with huge bangs on them
Interesting.
In shipwrech meanwhile, i noticed the existance of multiple craters which are heavily black toned, yet its lack dark water
Weird take : the things they bombarded was krills 
Remind you that I'm basing this off with lore docs, discussions with other lorers, and the few hours of gameplay I have. Please point out the inconsistencies in my posts, and thank you.
Meaning it can be the blast from bombs or artillery blasts
Well, if they have blasts it's either gunpowder or a special kind of light munition
Yes i will, thats why i love talking bout lore, u will always find a way to change your mind on a theory

Indeed
very unlikely, but possible, except for one thing-
If htey had gunpowder, where's the guns?
Nathan did you started playing
wait who are we talking about? 
Ye
They would at least have an example of a handgonne or a harquebus
Maybe were light blasts, i cant say its artillery or conventional gunpowder since i lack the evidence to back that
even as a novelty
Possible
Good but we had a outside perspective 
I mean I’m maybe dumb but wouldn’t they just use crystals for the wars ? Do they even need guns if they can produce new unimagined weapons with that kind of energy ?
Hope you enjoy the game
Yet considering the evidence of mass destruction that doesent seem caused by medieval weapons, the kingdom must have had weapons capeable of heavy bombardment
Next, minor inconsistency but it's possible that instead of building a new army, they merged all the civilization's armies and made a new organization
But if that happened, I would've expected cannon shot holes, light beam holes, or something similar
Yes i do believe multiple militias and tribes united to become a secular army and organized themselves
Such as warlord armies unifying into a structured army during the evolution of china
Yep, next: Depends of the size of the eden crystal, you can't move that
But the thing is,, light beam hole, crystals use fire/light as a way to light up, it would be possible they kinda, manipulated the power as they wished
unless you're talking about tons of skyboats just dragging it
Maybe the diamond was transported befor being finished and activated, also the kindgom manages to make things levitate meaning they could lift the diamond easily
Or, they assembled it in Eden itself
Activated its impossible to move but deactivated and unfinished it can be moved
Also, they have ridiculously horrible Opsec
You don't call a weapons project by its name or location for a reason
Just had a light of thought in my lil’ brain, but would they have created the giant diamond and it was what caused the canon holes and such-
True but i do believe GW's temple was the place were the diamond was begun to be assembled
Burst of light caused by the diamond, it can be true tbh
It's possible that they finished most of the diamond pieces, and just connected them in eden
Like 2 halves or something
Yes that's what i had in mind
This convo is legit interesting
The first war was faught against light creatures when they attacked the factories which were building darkstone diamonds. And most factories were in wasteland so they might've attacked there.
Then the king ordered wasteland elder to make fortress around the ark for people to take shelter in in case they attack a second time.
They were also defeated in the first war
and then just piecing it together like volatile, mass-destructive lego
Also i do want to adress the megabird
I do believe the megabird is not a living thing but a massive filament of galaxies and cosmical structures
Also, the disparity between the tech of the Kingdom and the weapons seen is staggering
The chaos in wasteland could be because of dark creatures, as wasteland was already a fortress the creatures might've destroyed everything and scattered war things
They have light crystals that can be used to fire a beam of light, but they have Spears and Shields?
Laniakea supercluster (real filament of galaxies) and the ending credits of sky
The rebels maybe relied on numbers and lacked the industrial power to mass produce advanced weapons
No, I meant the armies themselves
Aren't those lines paths of galaxies which will merge into a super cluster
If that happened the rebels will be steamrolled at the first battle
Supercluster are bassically a lot of galaxies which seem to form large structures
Based on the conversation I've had with pyre on another server about military tech, Pyre said:
see, sky
s military doctrine is all abt physical prowess enhancement and infantry tactics those things arent very useful in a naval battle skys artillery an ranged weapons lack both range and power a LOT (we literally only see mangonels and staffs (a whole crew of staffmen couldnt take down a single krill) not even a single trebutchet)
meanwhile, when it comes to close quater combat the ancestors are like space marines, minus the superiority complex, if u know what i mean
think of a legion of salamanders(yes the chapter not the animal)
with spears and shields
they also seem to embody the astra militarum ideals of self sacrifice
the uruk hai scimitars found in the battlefield would not be useful agains the phalanx formation the spearmen would have obviously taken
which means the swordsmens' only chance would have been to advance in masses under fire toward enemy trenches during a krill strike as this would have been the only opurtunity for them to effectively attack the spearmen
think ww1
Yes,and i'm talking about the lines of image
Granted, this may be wrong
Maybe the military doctrine of sky is centered around medieval combat yet having acess to multiple weaponry
Possible
If ash was here she could tell us where the inspiration for the wasteland things came from 
Though those phalanxes
Also the eden diamond absorbs ligjt possibly destroying all modern equipment and leaving medieval weapons behind
Interesting take as well
Also, phalanxes will get hurt by an attack on the weak flank, so it's possible that most battles aren't charges, but rather maneuvering battles
One phalanx locks with the enemy phalanx, light infantry attacks weak flank causing chaos
yall having fun talking about lore and here i am suffering with hemorragic case

Causing it to devolve the battle into pure chaos
then, the Light infantry may exploit this weakness and drive through the enemy formation, causing the phalanx to split into half and basically making it so that the front ranks won't have momentum
causing that to collapse
rip
Also just using modern weaponry could lead to exhaustion of ammunition very quickly leading to being outgunned and outnumbered
By phalanx ya mean fingers?
Then, main Phalanx uses the disorganization to link up with light inf and press the remaining half, crushing it via momentum
Military formation
Im terribly sorry i cant imagien them split someoen fingers
wheeze
Formations of infrastry in a determined shape to have more defense against singular enemies and light projectiles such as arrows
yes
Mainly used by the romans during their conquests
But it's horribly slow at turning lel
Goddang thats interesting 
Well, they used testudo, which is similar
Yes, slow and cant be sorrounded and outpowered easily
Yet its phsychological impact really caused the battles to end soon, seemingly unstopabble formations of men moving towards you must be terrifying
Like seeing tanks today
Yes
You alone really can do much (unless u have AT weapons) against them
But it can be shattered by a flank by dedicated skirmishers
Yes
The Art of Krills by Krill Tzu
And everyone left while us remain here discussing military doctrines
I'm slowly uploading the image of testudo
Testudo formation
The romans did this
But the phalanx was greek if I recall correctly
Phalanxes were macedonic then right,m
Yes used by alexander the great during its conquests
Ah yes, the macedonians and their long sarissas
Hoo thats looks like that one movie about sparta war
Alexander too OP the admins had to ban it
God : now lead your people
Alexander : literally doing his job and actually great in it
God : nvm come back here
If i was a persian during that time i would be like "nope, bye"
so they can hit enemy formations before clashing with the front ranks
Yes, since they had short spears
The convo quickly devolved into just standard history
Pyre also mentioned this when talking about the gw wasteland war
Hmm
So i would agree that the sky kingdom shares both medieval, somewhat roman and futuristic doctrine of warfare
Yes
Though it will be interesting what their naval doctrine looks like
Since they have skyboats
I mean the architecture does have roman feels in it, especially valley
And maybe due to the massive destruction caused by the eden diamond the most advanced equipment was lost or destroyed meanwhile the spears and stuff were left untouched
maybe galleys with mangonels?
Laser
Im sure a roman doctrine of warfare
Sky galleys with ramming tactics
Unless the powerful light cannons were used
Romans kinda suck at navy though
So that could lead a more 18 century warfare doctrine
Oh btw you guys see on the shipwreck tehre is a big king statue? Some speculated it was a laser or a cannon
Well, yes
It could be like they basically did a Lepanto
Lepanto?
Battle of lepanto
Yep
Reminds me of a spanish vessel during its civil war
Ohhh
Battle of Lepanto: Pretty chaotic
A h
And they used galleys
Whoaa
I want to throw in an idea that i had
So a battle of lepanto-style war for their naval battles could be possible
The holy league against the ottoman navy
yes
Indeed
What is your name again 
With both heavy ramming and light cannons firing against enemy ships
What if everything is a big bootstrap paradox. Which means everything that skids do leads to their birth.
Adios
Tell me your n a m e
But that also means that most of their naval battles have soldiers boarding ships as well
TGC seeing us writting lore of a game they dont even know the loee about: 👁👄👁
Ah yes
Indeed
Wait this got me interested
Yash..?
Hmm :< aight then
But yeah it is... like everything already programmed to them
Like fate
Uhh
Destiny
So we have established:
Their land doctrine is a mixture of roman, greek, medieval, and/or futuristic
Naval doctrine consists of galley warfare, with ramming and cannon fire, as well as boarding tactics being used
I do agree in that statement
Also the eden diamond may have/not been produced at first on GW and then Eden
Eye of Eden must be made from separate pieces, with them being completed in eden
Indeed
I would've stayed lol but i'm doing a last minute candle rush to get the duck hair
This! I think they kinda... like starting to made it from isle to vault and then placed it in eden
Like how vault elevator show it
However, this asks the question of why don't they have musketeer equivalents or at least a cannon regiment
maybe complexity?
I really dont have an answer of that, maybe destroyed on the eden storm's climax
Oh maybe the elders are those who participated in the creations of Eden and the meditations spots are where the pieces of the big crystal were
possible
True, too hard to make it work in such compact size
also possible that the survivors fled and took all arms that they can take
Probably
well, useful ones anyway
||maybe TGC not wanting to add guns so the game is family friendly||
Since you don't really need swords in a line battle unless you're charging
ah yes, the technical reason
Imagine if someone wrote a fanfiction using this discussion as ideas lel
So we can agree
The posibily of the lack of existance of firearms such as muskeets may be/not be:
Complexity of production
Loss over time due to the eden storm
Destroyed during the eden storm's climax
Yes
The lore: Literally in a post apocalyptic era
Since their loss might just be from scavenging survivors
who needs good weapons
And if there's survivors, that means there's possibly petty kingdoms outside the game world of Sky
aka outside the realms
Maybe they just didnt want guns so players wont mistake it with fortnite 
Jk jk
Or maybe groups of survivors fighting one against eachother and needed to have weapons
Maybe they treated the realms like post-fall Valyria in Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire
Well only time will tell if our theories are true
As i said my theory will suffer changes as the lore advances
yep
or maybe its like skyrim, technology simply became too hard to handle so it was destroyed to make older weapons like swords and shields?
Oof, gtg. Keep typing, I might be able to switch to my phone
possible
Bye
I will go sleep now nathan
Alright
So cya and thanks for spending time theorizing with me!
It looks like the Valley Oob
I am still new to sky lore but I have some of my own theories.
What if we all use to be stars/light then we fell to earth?
As in the prophecy, they would send us through it and we would collect each light from all four places?
Then we would be sent to go through eden? Idk
By 4 places, you mean the trials?
Oh, yeah
Thanks!♡

I can explain this to you
We basically talked about siege weaponry, their land and naval tactics and strategies, and how their battles are probably fought
the phalanx tactics were an example
Basically, think of it as like two swordsmen clashing with each other
they both have momentum, correct?
As well as equal skill
but then imagine an axe being thrown at the enemy's sword arm and hitting
that's the light infantry flank
now distracted, and probably losing the sword, the enemy swordsmen can and will be cut down as he has no armament whatsoever
or, to use more simpler terms, the light infantry split the phalanx like an axe would a tree
and then, since they are halved and can't keep the momentum they have
they can just get crushed
Depends onthe actions of the flanking infantry
There are guns
Projectile weapons that is.
I have a theory that the spears were able to shoot projectiles once charged with light

Sounds like something darkstone does;)
I believe by explanation, you meant summary that was still just as confusing as the original 
Jkjk
I think every thing is powered by light, You, me, butterflies, even them krills be hungry for ya light! 
A h y e s
Also, I'm not sure if this is the right chat room to put this but, I wouldn't mind if anyone wants to join me in sky looking at the art on the caves and walls figuring out the lore with me 
L o r e h u n t i n g 
Interesting
Hmm
It’s the only item of the elders that spits out a projectile.
Horrible quality but there’s a blast that comes from it like a bullet or pellet of light
Well they do that when it runs out of light I imagine
This is kinda unrelated, but the blue light zie points at reminds me of the blue light surrounding the white boi when we meet zem
So what are we talkinf about
I think it signifies the “state of mind’ that Xiaxuang was talking about or alternate reality
O h h h h
N o i c e
Btw
Zim, Zem or Zer ?
In terms of genderless pronouns
Who knows that the spear near the boat (that takes us to forgotten ark) is one of those spears that wasteland elder threw during his off time 
What have I walked in on Dragon? 
Check out this
the swords look so primitive compared with the spears
If Eden winds can blow rocks at high velocities, why can’t they blow away Skykids?
And if Skykids are heavier than ROCKS, how can they fly
2 words:
Game
Mechanics
Jkjk 
maybe light-based lifeforms stick to the eden soil?
It is possible that the eden soil is sucking light very slowly from the player, causing them to somewhat stick (Not really true technically, as far as I know
when I mean technically I meant in-game
And when I mean in-game, I meant that game mechanics doesn't really allow he soil to slowly suck your light, probably
I don't know
Ahhhhhh don't these look like the staffs should fit in them
Those diamond molds i mean
Ahhh lemme put together some pics
the last portal in sky is the one beyond eden
that's where we're trying to go and where our lights are supposed to be shipped
but we die before we reach
Where’d you get this image from ?
Oof can't find the pic i wanted but this gets the point across
or maybe eden winds can only affect non-living objects since krills don't seem to be affected
Here

Sky kids seem light like ice density
Is this this Kingdom during the ancestors’ time?
Before there was a war?
well, not sure
The wind is stronger up in the air than on the ground
Those are just concept arts. Some didn't made it into the game
Looks like it's how the prairie village was thought to be
At the ending credits we see that there is not only one reborn gate. There are like millions more situated in universe around planets and everywhere. It is interesting that this reborn thing is not a special thing for our planet but a common thing in whole universe. One way or another, living forms in planets created a way to reach to those reborn gates that is situated in space, In our world we have spaceships to reach space, but in sky world they found a way to give them unlimited wing power which is eden and they did reach space by flying with their wings. I wonder about the living forms on other planets and how they reached to space, did they cause a disaster like in sky planet or did they create wiser and healthier way to reach to space. It is somewhat cruel to say if you are not advanced enough you simply die, reaching to space requires great knowledge and technology and there must be thousands of empty planets out there which were previously full of life but ended up dying just because they couldn’t create a technology to go space and be reborn in those gates.

Another theory is that each world is for each tgc game. One for journey one for flower one for flow
One for sky 
Maybe after 5 years, if Tgc makes an update, we can reborn in other reborn gates and go to different planets and discover different planets
Sadly i read somewhere that they will shut down sky in 2022
What
My hard earned candles and hearts wasted?
Rubbish
Whats the reason
Wait lemme find the message
heavy breathinG
.
I already invets more that one million rupiah on this game, dont do this to meeeee
oh ok they wont shut it down as long as we play it and support it
😱😱
We are not going to just shut the game down one day in 2022.
wheeze

Man im just gonna back away now, im on car sjskdh
your on top of a car?
sick
concern
I think they will shut down this in 2022 considering they have to work on and release more games. Maybe we'll get a better game than sky also a year is a longg time we don't know what will happened


So where am i suppose to vibe now
in this discord server
But if the game gone then the dc server will gone too-
I will contribute as much as i can to keep sky alive 
ktjn literally said they won’t ?
Yes but that's my assumption
your assumption is just wrong lol
freezing channel 
not sure if this will be a lore but, this make me curious and sad :(
Does anyone have any idea that Vault is the only place where it doesn’t have any dark plants?
I’m curious if it’s an intentional detail by the devs that could somehow tie in to the lore
Forest Elder poem makes me feel maybe she was leading the Diamond side in the war... two shields theory
“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.”
She broke some precious light in vain, and the mention of the player as their true savior implies there was a false savior before. Perhaps this was the King/Prince, who would have been guarded by the Wasteland Elder and his soldiers.
I still think it's somehow related to old beta forest elder but

The poem is live on the sky shop website
She weeps over her broken stone
Do you mean the old cutscene? Or the old version of the character?
does the office npc have a fanon name
So there was a war discussion yesterday, interesting
The old cutscene when they didn't snatchh the diamond and the skid uhhhh comforts them
The first part of the poem feels like something the skid would say to forest elder during that cutscene and the second being the elder's reply
is there like a comprehensive general theory of what happened in the world of sky that is a bit more than "everything was fine until the darkness nation attacked"
hmm
and what does the cave of phropecies reveal about the role? i never really understood how that ties up with the lore that we already know from outside it
Hmm...
This symbol is everywhere. Why?
I think it might be because of the mountain
Any thoughts?
Skating
I know this is probably in the rules somewhere but is it necessary to mark spoilers in this channel, and if so, what is the proper way to do so?
This channel doesn't require spoiler tags since it's for lore discussion, so any and all game spoilers are allowed to be discussed freely here. You do need to tag in other channels though
Here are some ways you can spoiler tag your messages:
• Type /spoiler at the beginning of your message
• Highlight your text, right click or tap on it, and select “Mark as spoiler”
• Type || on both sides of your text ||like this||
Thank you for the response. Then my next question is, what is Star Field Memorial?
Ahhhhh yes the biggest question
If this is not the proper channel, would you please direct me
No this is the right channel lol
I see many pins of it, but I was just curious if there had been any more development, or what the true answer was
I understand that there is a WWII memorial of the same name irl, but I'm assuming, as many have said, that it is in fact either a place holder, left over, or foretelling of future element
I think that is kind of a bug for now. It's in the Valley stadium oob area, which the devs left open because players enjoy it a lot even though it's not like an official area. Since the most recent update, there is a sort of constellation there that says Star Field Memorial, but there's nothing to actually collect.
They don't really put things in oob areas intentionally, usually, so for now I think it's just a bug or something that got activated accidentally. But we'll see if anything comes out of it I guess
Thank you for this detailed response!
That’s okay, I also have a crazy looking picture to share when you are done
Okay, what if you can just view the winged light you ascend from the Valley oob?
Not in person but by looking at the sky sort of thing
As in, winged light you have not collected since ||Eden?|| Or each light that has been ascended from every ||Eden|| visit? Just to be safe lol
I have been scolded by mods before
Ascended every Eden visit
I think you can use the word Eden here casually hehehheh
You mean to say that each star in the sky then, would be a winged light that has been ascended?
Yeah something like that
Interesting, hmmm, I wonder if you could get a moth to check on this assumption
I know that the Valley Oob stadium is where you last see the Season of Rhythm Spirits so maybe there's a connection from that
Have you seen the second "Disney Land " oob area? after interacting with the Elder in the final temple, the area changes slightly
Though the Star Field Memorial is present in both areas
Hmmmmmmm that's interesting!
Ohhhh okay!
Yeah look at all those chickens
Star Memorial will remain a mystery for a bit. Next topic?
You said you got a crazy looking picture to share
Hahaha, pardon my loose language, but the chickens were the crazy picture
Also, did you know there is a colliseum oob in the Village of Dreams
I wonder if the Star Field Memorial is there too? 🤔
Also I am curious, Star Field Memorial could be what the second door is for in the regular Valley race ending
||there is an invisible boat that can be activated in a praire oob||
Then how did you manage to pull that off without spoilering it?
sk8terbot is a bot lol, of course he can do it
(they have too much power.....what if robots really take over earth
)
WhatifrobotswerethecauseoftheEdenStorm
and krills are robots!?

"I fear no man, but that thing...." points at your profile photo "it scares me"
(chuckles) I'm in danger
A h y e s
That boat is actually leftover from something in the early beta that was scrapped as well. It's not really there intentionally, it's just that they haven't completely removed it from the game so it can still be accessed. I meant that they don't tend to intentionally add new features in oob areas. I believe Ktjn has even made a statement about that at some point too, I could try to find the post
Oh there is also a boat in isle too, an oob as well 👀 good luck finding that one
This post and Ktjn's additional post a bit below explain pretty well, for anyone who's interested in the Valley oob thing (or their stance on oob in general)
Sad, I hope that Valley and Rainbow Bridge are never removed 😢
I doubt they will be, since those are two of the most popular oob areas. Their stance is basically that they're okay with it as long as it doesn't cause detriment to other aspects of the game or give some players an unfair advantage. Since those are just two places that are kind of fun to visit, it's not really hurting anything right now
where is that!?
Maybe we should look back at the enchantment ark and there are theories that’s unexplored yet

O h
That explains why there's a diamond on the forehead of most masks
"Mind light"
Jkjk
Never knew they were actually like living spirits in light form 
I don't know if they're watching tho...
hmmm
What's with the diamonds and stuff? I'm confused about all of it 
I think you're talking about the power diamonds that basically act as conduits and light storage, correct me if I'm wrong since I'm basing my knowledge off of canon lore docs and my few minutes of gameplay
Well, suffice to say your description was pretty on the nose
I find the void light VERY sus.
*looks at krill and red rocks

mind stone
jk
what's that rock thing? (the blueish grey one)
looks humanoid ngl
It is
There are those who theorise they were a previous generation of skids
Here ya go
ah yes
i always thought of it being other skykids who died and their soul ig got thrown out into one one the realms as wl that you collect and they give you wing power in return for you bringing them back to their body for a second chance
W o a h
Well, I believe all theories are welcome here. Yours is no exception! 
^-^
Btw, no need to spoilertag here 
so like the AI generator species thing \
Mhm it literally says Lore, Discussion spoilers
Yes
Chat got Krilled 
Finally got a relatively decent pic of the heart. Any lore?
Jkjk
diamond in the middle, cut out of the design 
crispy skykid
Definetely a completely deseased skykid or spirit
The blue diamonds mean that all of the light has been drained
No possible way to bring it back to life, its gone forever
interesting
00:02 AM its theory time
So
In the eye of eden you free trapped skykids by giving them 1 winged light
After that
The freed skids will fly to orbit and become stars
What i want to say about this
Is that 1 winged light is theoretically enough powerful to create a main secuence star (probably the size of our sun)
My theory is
1 winged light = enough mass and energy to create a full main secuence star
But how about multiple winged lights
150 winged lights?
So this will cause the star to be brighter and more powerful meaning that
Skykids can storage
A lot of power
A LOT OF POWAH
hmm... is orbit the 8th realm? or the 0th?
Its a crazy theory feel free to critize it lmao
Yeah 8th maybe
If we ofc took it in chronoligical order
wouldn't it technically be the ninth? if eden the eighth realm. unless we're considering eden and orbit two parts of the same realm, but I would disagree with that, they seem to be two separate locations
Eden is the seventh realm and orbit eighth
Homespace: Am I a joke to you- 
Well uh
Because mask
But yea
Like spirit too
Ye
Ok
Even noze they don't
Been directed to post this here instead: My friend and I were talking about this the other day. So we came upon this question. Krill senses- they use sight and touch only, they can't smell nor hear technically right? Since sky child honk, they won't turn their attention towards them.
They only see
They can't heard or smell
When you honk it make nothing
Just when you fly too close of them or when you are in their vision
Only 2 sense
Watching and feeling
Maybe they’re like cockroaches in that they’re sensitive to how wind hits their body
XD
Everyone can feel something behind their back like even me
