Ou oukay š

Today, Ms. Bloom smiles at you brightly, waving from the tree.
Have you ever wondered why it can turn red?
Ms. Bloom isn't what she seems.
I know, because I died at her hands.
On the last day, her true colours will show.
She's going to kill you all like she did so many years back.
It's too late for me.
Run.
Please.
Before it's too late.
[Ms. Bloom and the sounds her tree makes forms a great bit of horror lore]
lmao
I have tea with her 
the teaā¦is wasteland water
(I do not know, but it's possible)
Well the bloom tree is same as the tree in vault I call it the spirit tree so maybe the bloom tree is like a spirit tree but with blooms
bUt it can turn bloodred and that's slightly creepy
hehehehehe
what if Bloom tree is like actually from vault
and bloom lady was innocent
the scholars were not
and yknow, framed
For me I think all the scholars are evil and vault elder to E
Ye
THAT'S WHY YOU SHOULD LIKE KING THAN THOSE FLIMSY ELDERS
what if the elders are manipulating us into giving their pet gods candles
but in all honesty, they're all meanies
Hm
especially Mega birb
that one evil birb
Could be, exact same model is used in vault
NO
and that's why we all should make MFC (Mega birb fried chicken)
WHY
OH HI TSADI SI,, I MEAN FAN
the Birb, leaning over us, eyes shadowed, talons outstretched, clawing at the spirits' facesā¦
"make the children offer you their candles. and give them to me, if you don't want to die again."
Presumably š
okay :(
I return and yāall are indirectly trash talking my favorite elder š
this is a theory chat for a reason
lmao
but ye, there's lots of theories
I personally see GW elder just doing their job
same with the other elders
Doesnāt the Megabird mind control theory imply that the elders are against Megabird because evil anyway?
but either way, they're all meanies
especially teth
(aka, forest elder)
I mean, they just grabbed our candle
Lore-wise I always found it funny that the elder associated with the trial for patience is the only one who couldnāt WAIT .5 seconds for me to hand them the light
I'm going to pour all my theories at once after the season starts

and ngl I think they're that one extremely grumpy boss
What happened to you Teth and why are you so impatient with children š
Maybe in the concepts vault elder is evil ?
Forest mama hates children
Oh who's the water trial elderšļøššļø
Its forest elder
Forest was air iirc ohhh okie
I mean, it's like so windy in Valley
Ye
Ye
Well ngl the original timeline concept painted the elders in a pretty bad light overall, but I thought TGC said that oneās not canon anymore. I at least think they screwed up but arenāt outright malicious
Ye
I mean, there's lots of bones in Vault
I wonder what the murals in the cave tunnel mean. I think they are like the 4 elements that created everything theory. 
Wasteland elder was corrupted according to tom zhao's concepts
Theyāre giving the elements to tha prince
Fremc
I think he also died protecting us in that concept and if that happened I would cry
My faves are always the tragic ones huh ...
Now i remember lore moff doc


Heh
So is the generally accepted prophecy theory that itās about the price or king? Some people I know say itās just us
rip concept Tsadi
Itās about the prince
yep
it's about Prince/King
I always thought it was us. But most popular is the prince theory
šprince head
I always kinda thought they wouldnāt have given us the king pendant if he wasnāt at least vaguely involved
well, there's a theory of us being the descendants of Prince/King or fragments of them
Ye I like that theory
or Prince/King being the 1st skid
But then again belonging? I think? Had that bracketed diamond emblem on all the elders, so Iām not sure what that season had to do with that. š¤ Or maybe they just wanted to make that symbol a pendant
Devs must have a basic storyline but they may not reveal anything just to keep it more open ended
I mean, imo I think Prophecy is the origins of Sky Kingdom
The symbol for belonging is like a haert y know if you look at our clothes thereās tha symbol in our chest
Ash said diamond symbol could represent a lot of things in sky
Itās different
oh, I remember while searching in google about what does the diamond shape symbolize and I think it was ascension or smthng
wait, I'll check
True, itās on the elders (mostly when theyāre lit), the arches and gates, us, instruments... I always figured either a kingdom symbol or something with the elders/stars
The diamond symbolizes ascension, clarity and wisdom. The exact meaning can differ between cultures and religions. For example, Native Americans from Canada, Mexico and North America see the diamond as the butterfly and it signifies immortality.
(according to google)

OMG, thank you, that symbol has been driving me nuts for ages. Whether or. It thatās their intention, hc ACCEPTED
I wonder if TGC based it off any specific culture tho
Itās differnt from the other symbols
< ā >
yeah
That pendant looks more like the forest gates now that Iām thinking about it
Yes, The most interesting is the belonging symbol it has been there since the beginning on our chest and on different locations like valley.
I interpret it as a diamond shell that holds our flame or soul. It could also be the symbol for the kingdom like a flag since it's visible in valley a lot and valley was built in golden age

me too
Ye we can see the symbol in our chest clearly in light awaits
No, belonging spirits were scattered around realms. The underground area was added in belonging. Also the final cutscene was in sunny forest
Ye
Ye, pleading parent was PAIN, I remember that much. But they basically lived in forest, I meant
It's still there but it's inside our chest
Ye
Inside? Like hidden inside the graphics? Canāt say Iāve looked
in fact, there's a theory about diamonds being first found/made in Forest
On our clothing
Yeah, I think that was from the OG concepts with darkstone? I donāt remember... but it IS interesting thereās a diamond factory there when Wasteland clearly ended up being the industrial realm. Maybe thatās where they first started, I mean
ye, ig
Oh, Iād have to get rid of my cape to see it probably š
I'll send a screenshot of it
Nvm yash is getting one
Well not like the desert wouldāve been used for much else, probably. Thereās a ton of factory-looking buildings and whatever shipwreck has going on tho
What ARE those gold things? The forest temple has āem
thing
Was much visible in light awaits
Also i'm surprised they had a king statue in isle back then
why did they remove it
Wait, they had a what? š
Isle is that one realm that changed the most I think
Hopefully they bring him back in future š
Ye
wh At
Look in the background
The second pic aināt loading for me š
how dare Daleth (Isle's concept name) remove the beautiful, majestical
handsome
KING
STATUE
IN ISLE
But man, TGC takes all the statues from us... I heard somewhere that Wasteland Elder/Tsadi had a statue somewhere too
In the OG beta, I mean
The pic is from the beta memories albums linked in pins
F
Wasteland elder never had a statue his statue was outside the temple and the temple was part of the vault
Also his statue used to be broken after final cutscene that's why it's cracked in current version
No idea where my friend got this, tbh
Oh, their shrines? I remember his OG cutscene the whole thing was cracked in half, ye
I know! One of Tara's sky journey videos
I watch them myself
Thats the mission thing yeah?
That is from the quest shrine it used to give you quests and it gave you some wax after the quest
It was in home space then moved to Aviary
And the panels would go down as you did the mission the represented or somethn
Ye
I like home island better than aviary, more cute, more convenient. But I really would love that multi story building back, a-and maybe the nice view of all of sky kingdom.
Here's the beta memories playlist from tara
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKh97ggSLvdxTgYWBAUO7V_Zd4d0Yc1Ad
Sounds like Light Awaits had some neat stuff (want that statue back š)... but yeah, looked in the album and it had some neat lore
š saving that playlist! Thanks!
There's a walkthrough of late 2018 of light awaits there too, including winter season 
That it had that wild intro. More text, precious text! I think the part about ancestors shepherding light to temples might still be true? Who knows.
The concept of having a separate home space was good but i think tgc couldn't merge it into the gameplay. They played around a lot with when to introduce home space
Ofc it made sense to introduce home space before Aviary but then you stated in isle so you had to go back from isle to home space
That spirit place where you light all the friends was so beautiful......untill I realized it would mean you walk up to each alter to light your friends individually. Eep.
Gosh I love those original elder cutscenes... they all seem so much less sad
That was kind of a break from storyline so they removed it
Forest seemed MORE sad
One of the cutscenes for the valley elders had them spinning around and stuff, it was so cool
The twins where helicopters. Chaos chaos.
Yes, old forest cutscene matches the forest pin poem much well
Now they're just demanding
I like their rivalry now but that was a spectical
If open-world games werenāt massive and bad on mobile it wouldāve been neat to fly from realm to realm whenever. Just... explore freely. But who knows, maybe the specific path you have to take has a reason
And I like Forestās snappy-ness better too.
Wasteland politely offering to open the gate though 
Idk it seemed like a skip or a break from isle
Isle had that bird back then, I miss it even though I never met it
I like beta Wastelandās cutscene a LOT. Less depressed, I guess, and the music and the combat moves are PERFECT
... Then again, if even half the theories Iāve read here are true the new one fits better. š I wouldnāt be that energetic and alive after thousands of years in limbo, anyway
The way the screen shakes too
BRING BACK THE BIRD PLEASE CAN WE STILL HAVE THAT BIRD
There was also dead kids in isle in the very beginning of beta 
The 11 something hour long one I think lacked the corpses. They where might have been taken out then, or added in later?
Because nothing screams āoff to start a fun adventureā like a bunch of dead people....
Thanks to all the people that archived la
it's a lore gem now 
0 to 100 REAL quick š
Ah yes
I kinda thought maybe those ones are just waiting for flame. Not dead. Empty bodies yet to be filled that never lived before.
Which is why you where one of them
But also if sky kids where still miracle friendship hope star babies I donāt know why their bodies would be mass produced and washed up on the beach.
Daleth/Isle Elder casually growing skykids in the backyard... isle grandpa wth š
wait who are we talking about? 
But seriously good question
Shush skybot I specified š
Maybe in that original idea they were like... remnants? That we inhabit. Although us falling as lil stars is way less disturbing at first thought
Old elder names and Megan are trigger words because not all people know what they mean

Lol ye when I first came here I was confused who Megan is
It happens randomly 
Wait, skybot is here?
Yes
I have never not seen people using Megan tho... and what if my name were Megan? Thatād be awkward š
āWait, who are we talking about?ā
āME DANGITā š¤£
Skybot watches all chats at once 
Lmaoo
Its horribly, ironically tragic.
Also,,, thoughts on the voices heard from the blossom tree?
They're less melancholic like Eden, and seem to belong to children
I think its the same noises as in the office
Trapped souls
Office water
I know TGC said something about āwhispers of springā but they creeped me out tbh
It's not the same as office. I went and listened to all three portals
Well if you look at the pins seraph said to use the Megan minimum also the elder names
wait who are we talking about? 
Oh
Eden's is a low moaning and chanting. It's deep.
The blossom tree sounds like a muffled cafeteria full of children
The offices is more conversation, etc
This is an entirely new ambiance?
Woah 
YOU KNOW I WAS JUST THINKING IT SOUNDED CAFETERIA EARLIER.
But I do wonder a lot about the tree.
Yes the chanting
that's the only thing i'm scared of in eden
YEAH ITS LIKE A CAFETERIA
Also right before PNR it's a loud chanting, and voices are more discernible
I believe that's where they sampled the audio though
I wish it DIDNT have cafeteria clatter since Its nice to have your back to it but then your camera (and ears) are super close to it.
The spirits in the blossom tree seem pretty well off.
The fallen cry for your help and to be saved 
PNR has talking audio? I just hear the music that like āoooooomā
What if bloom guide has been committing rituals under the bloom tree 
I donāt like the noise in the cave either, after the last krill. Creepy, sounds like breathing or something
I saw someone describe it as āthe breathing of the mountainā once (saying it was the king) and I havenāt felt comfortable there since š
Yes, i'm talking about that
Yeah.and the closer you get to the door, the more you can hear a low moaning
Like a deep omnious ooooooohm
To trap you in Eden 

Maybe it was to seal off any possible explosion
Tragic
Yeah. Most likely. But has anyone ever condidere..
Has anyone gotten any ideas on why or how the fallen are in pnr in the first place?
I think they were doing the same thing we did
I mean, I always imagined they were some like fellow skykids. Why we get to ascend right away, and theyāre frozen waiting though... I dunno
The first ones prolly went because Vault told em to meet the prince. All after went to save the first ones (and get enough AC for more resize)
Then we give them wing light like we give light to spirits to free them
So we're just saving those skykids, purifying the spirits, and rebuilding the kingdom?
Maybe
What if after you die in Eden you actually become one too, and there is a space of time you donāt realize until someone else comes to free you?
Tho the cycle never ends 
Do it for the resize
My sky storyline ideas are quaking because of this channel
me who always imagined that š
That's what i believe our bodies turn into stone
Time loop
But you free more of them then the one you become. Eh. Some victory.
Hello
so, what's the topic?
Eden
cool
Eden as of rn
Oh-i remember i left a feedback to add more lore like prophecy in the survey

what about Eden :0
This all begs the question though of, if weāre here to free those trapped skykids, and someone comes to free US... what were the OG skykids sent to do? Something with the diamond maybe? Since we all seem to go towards it š¤
Vault shows you Kingās mural. She wants you to go see if hes still alive
What if it's all a bootstrap paradox we come to save the kingdom but what if we are the cause of destruction
Well he clearly isnāt
arson
._.
Vault elder: Okay I'm gonna send some children off to scary land
Other elders: But why
Vault elder: We gotta make sure the king is alive somehow
I mean, we see ourselves turn black and turn to stone
Whatever it is itās pretty heavy for a bunch of kids if ya ask me... Iām not sure what we CAN do to save anything (replayability, anyway, if you played once it makes sense)
It's an endless cycle. I think it might be to keep the king in Eden.
Also bow to them otherwise... 
Why would Megabird or anyone throw this at some KIDS š
Skykids seem like.....a long term solution.
We aren't saving him. We are sacrificing ourselves to.. keelhim there
anime
Kill???
Keep him, I mean. Also has anyone ever considered this
Structure in the back. What is it?
Wasteland ruins
Multiple unseen factories?
Oh
@hoary mountain That's something a krill would say....
Those? I always figured more factories
And how come you can see light, coming from it sometimes.
With the pipelines and all
THE FACTORY
ye, diamond factories
It's different to the large factories. But it does look sort of like forest temple.. but bigger.
Did the elders trap the King in Eden?
You can see like, shooting stars sometimes.
There's some mantas in wasteland...does that mean
MANTA JUICER IN WASTELAND?
Ye, in the broken ātempleā
perhaps, but imo most likely no
Yeah.. we see a wrecked manta juicer in the first krill location
The king seems corrupted.
He probably was
Yeah
They say the rocks come from a giant manta elder in the storm.
I think that's the old design for the obe krill area
I feel like the loss of the king is something the rest of the elders are kinda mourning over. Kinda like, they knew he was corrupt and it was going downhill.....but he was lil at one point.
Yeah
Maybe it's the machine that created eden diamond
So.. you know how every elder shrine has a diamond in the middle. And at the end of vault, you use a giant diamond to summon all the elders.
I've had a theory that the reason why the elders are different is the power of the crystal diamonds
Ye those are diamond factories
And the giant diamond at the end of vault, along with the bringing of all elder shrines together at the top, signified themlockimg the king away.
Or the king Uniting them before.. it all went wrong
You gotta wonder what broke all that... I mean, the Wasteland factory is HUGE. Was it the krill or a war or something š¤
Or could be just over time, but given the condition of Wasteland overall I want to say everything got broken
Ooo yes in the concept storyline the king gave them diamonds that gave all the elders powers like gods and made them immortal
Which is why after the cutscene at vault. The giant diamond, is broken.
O right. They where normy norm spirits picked out to become elders in that one.
Corrupted, you might say. And it loses the surreal, spacelike aura of vault.
You're in a room. The storms raging. The broken diamond on the platform.
True, although that one always confused me. Werenāt they not stars in that one? Iād figure being stars they were immortal to begin with, or close enough
I mean. It's shown that everything comes from megabird and is made of light.
Except krills and crabs.
Krills and crab seem almost
Solidified.
baaaaccckkkk
I think crabs are neutral animals
the one's that attacks are infested with darknesss
but that's just a theory
A SKY THEORY
99% of crab population is corrupt now
AND COPYRIGHT
Welp for me they are corrupted
yep
one's that ain't corrupted are the ones in sanc :(
Get mantaed
The corrupted crab theory (if not canon because of the sanctuary friends) makes the darkness sound almost like an infection tbh š¬
And on that note imma go to sleep... night, yāall!
night
Yes, but it could be a metaphor
Scout Wish and Kay scouted out Forgotten Ark today, curious to see what you do with this information...
wait what
where
All theories are valid 
Well, I was just popping in to see what youāre gonna do with this information... for me Iām most interested in the catapult in the water, but feel free to use these pictures to your liking 
Asking this in lore discussions because this where the veterans are at.
There is a small island that lies off the cost of Shipwreck, someone told me this island is home?
Eden never had an Elder change my mind 
Just a leftover
Eden had a elder in concepts. The king is still in sky but not like other elders
Noted. For a long time I thought it was some unreachable with a winged light there. I am still gonna try flying there thought.
There are no traces of its existence not even at the end where u can see all the statues of the elders theres no 7th statue and the fact that it was in a concept doesnt makes it canonical but thats for TGC to decide
Look harder king is in eden too, you cannot escape him in sky
You cannot pass windwalls now. It's impossible.
king is everywhere if u look hard enough
Give me a headstart of where should i start looking
It's not too hard to find wasteland is the easiest one
Look at the top of every tower.
Do you think Thatgamecompany will update the lore in the future?
I wish i could have played the story in the concepts
that is a possibility, yes, but each expansion a season brings to the realms can be taken as lore too
or rather, fuel for theories
Yes! I donāt think TGC is too focused on telling the Big Picture Story aside from some hints here and there at the moment, but every season is a smaller story that informs and is a part of the world of sky. And every spirit is their own little story as well! So I think the lore of Sky is constantly being updated. Who else has been š at the diamond on the desk in one of the treehouses?
those diamonds look like the ones in the gate activation thing in forest. They also have that in that tree house
Yeah!! I just think itās neat that, assumably, the kids themselves are putting together these power diamonds for their treehouse.
THEORY
I just wrote what I meant on the images, hopefully itās understandable. I personally think the glowing boi is the Prince. 
Let me know what you think!
This is probably kind of dumb but the game says we have to bring the lost stars home right?
Did we ever do that
or are they just very stubborn and want to stay all the time
Welcome to the "what spirits did for fun" season
that's how I interpret it at least
Lol new season and all the people break sky and general chat
Hey lorendiscussion
Anyone got some wild theories or questions
im here for the lore
mooncow i absolutely love and agree with your theory
Ye it changed last update
Omg thank you
after exam im planning on lore hunting, like searching every little details in sky and re-reliving all the spirits, not skipping cutscenes ||pain|| etc does anyone wanna join or something?
New season does give us a topic to ponder about!
Did these children work in the forest mines or not? 
Did they run away from the hard work? Or are these their spare moments of peace, outside the darkstone mines??? 
Oh the new season dropped?
i just realized something
so um. since enchantment spirits were delivering orbs to gw elders from vault elder (frmo what i heard ) to restore gws corruption
their boat got krilled > they get stranded > they try to plant crops etc to survive > ended up dying (if they are a spirit when they got stranded and died it wouldnt really make sense for them to die again)
this means gw got corrupted before eden explosion? does anyone know why? im not that much of a lore expert im pretty new so um-
and why did they go from vault to wasteland using a boat? atleast if the vault elder thing is true isnt the boat dock path thing for elites (based on concept art)
Maybe they had to use a boat to be able to transport all the load
I think wasteland was a sea or something once, then it dried up. I theorized that krill may have lived in water before. On the ark boat, it depicts a krill. There was also clouds and maybe lightning on the murals. Maybe a storm came or something. But darkness and light were on terms with each other before. Iām not sure if they still were, probs not cuz their boat died.In the cave, one of the murals show spirits releasing crabs from pots back into the water. Iām not sure if it was corrupted yet or maybe they just wanted to do something there? the murals depicting what seemed like praying acolytes creating orbs.(miners mined the light then went to acolytes) so definitely vault people for sure. But maybe forest too, idk. I think the boat was because wasteland had water so that was how they needed to get there. Of course, this was just me looking at the murals but idk, never looked at actual canon stuff(murals are canon but just theories In my head)
Also I may have not read everything you said before writing so uh-
So I made collages of the masks. These first two parallels are my favourite..
The piggyback mask looks like the two assembly masks merged kinda. So my head cannon is that piggyback could be their child.
And the vault parallel is awesome. Even the names and characters of the spirits are similar.
And here's the rest.. I don't have many theories. So I'll look into the new season more and theorize
Now that Season is out, I could talk about the spirits now!
It was stated that they're somehow related to spirits of the realms, but I realised each one is actually a representation of the theme of the spirits of the realm
For example, a lot of spirits in GW have scared spirits and survival spirits
Its the theme of the spirits from GW
Then there's the Scared Cadet, who may represent GW
So in other words, each one represents the realms we know in Sky
Chuckling Scout=Isle?
Baffled Botanist=Prairie
Daydream Forester=Forest
Marching Adventurer=Valley
Scared Cadet=Golden Wasteland
Scolding Student=Vault
Tell me if I got the names wrong-
QG is obviously... a representation of the Prince or something
I've been thinking about the fact that spirits' memories are often their 'strongest memories'
and the fact these ones are children
talking with a friend right now and pointing out that
though a generic model, the corpses are clearly not of children
might be overanalysis but
this makes it pretty unclear when they died...unless for the ones that we see do so (Light Miner and Warrior much?)
I honestly think that the chuckling scout has a crush on daydream forester 
BUT DAYDREAM FORESTER AND CHUCKLING SCOUTS ARE KIDS

thats illegal

I think chuckling scout and daydream forester arent siblings because their personalities and sizes are different
Oh no oh no oh. No no no no no
very big difference
Well, look above tho, they may be children of Isle Piggyback spirit
You are under arrest 
oo
Nice theory
Them being siblings would make sense, Chuckling Scout might be older than Daydream
That spirit does give "big bro" vibes to Daydream
or
He could be the oldest of the bunch
They can be best friend and chuckling scout kind of has a crush on daydream forester
Though, there would be other signs tho? Those two give a more "familial" vibe more than anything
That's just how it seems to me, idk
NEW THEORY
scolding student and daydream forester can be siblings
scolding student is the oldest
Well, Scolding Student does seem the older, responsible type
Chuckling Scout seems to be the oldest to me tho
But kids grow up?
True
Evidence
They could be siblings their masks are so similar
so dont make them have kids 
Noo don't send the crabs at me
guys why are you shipping sprits
Oh no you misunderstood me i never ship people
I was just making an observation
Of how related these spirits are.. Yall are attacking me for no reason rly
lmao
Isn't a pot a human item so how is in sky world the cups too maybe they think it's a hat ?
I mean, pretty sure the spirits in Assembly are kids
So they just be like
āHey, what if I wear this pot as a helmet lolā
Wow, very fashionable
A revolutionary design in uh fashion history
Beautiful
Stunning
Anyways
So uh, what was the topic
Ig
jellyfish or sad face?
the prince then choses the 4 elders who he gave the 4 sprits/elements to the elders,
The prince and elders explored in the forbidden forest, and they found a dark stone that could absorb the light of fire.
They mine dark stones in the forest to control and drive new technologies, and the ancestral civilisation is elevated to a whole new level. The black stone absorbed too much light and plundered the resources of the creatures, so the creatures began to attack the ancestors. But the creature failed.
In another creature's attack, the king ordered the ancestors to build fortresses and weapons. Some clues can be seen in the GW At the same time, the ancestors used the Dark Stone to build an Ark (the Forgotten Ark ). When the creature attacked again, the ancestors boarded the boat to seek shelter.
Under the attack of angry creatures, the Ark of the ancestors drove to the holy ground to avoid biological attacks. In the end, in this epic battle, the biological elders and army sacrificed themselves and detonated the Ark.
and bla bla bla lots of lore
btw theres also a giant light bird thingy that I don't know what to call
megabird?
could be
and after the war
the dark sprits cursed the prince
and eden is the leftover of the war/ poulution
krill crab and redstones are the creation of the detnotation stuff
this is the megabird
redstones?
the red things that kills you in eden'
me too
by another game
yea minecraft lol
i call them corrupted darkstone
The mega bird of light also fell asleep after the war The whole sky world was reduced to darkness...
and years after the mega bird woke up again
Creatures moved closer to the giant bird of light(cause thats their hope ), but this world was devastated.
to help this world
the giant bird of light blessed the sky kingdom, and a new descendant race was born.
and that us
sky kiddos
theres a whole different theory on how we were born
like
the 6 different maps are each in different time lines
but im not going to talk about that
I just explained how forgotten ark was made
remember you had to do tasks to rebuild the ark
yea ik
would you be interested in hearing about my...many spirit headcanons
would you be interested in hearing about my...many spirit headcanons
@lyric isle
O h. R e a l l y?
Im very interested
unsure where to start but
I call the main one the "Wandering Jew" theory
pretty much spirits are barred from the afterlife and forced to walk the earth (basically what that 'Wandering Jew' mythology is), but sort of coexist in multiple planes at the same time
reliving them and returning them to the constellations breaks this sort of barrier, only then they are free to wander between planes (considering, say, the kingdom itself and Orbit separate ones)
the memories are their strongest ones iirc - their bodies resemble themselves at that time, most fond vision of self?
šļøšļøā¼ļøā¼ļø
That sounds real interesting how spirits help each other that way!
thus why we can still see them by their graves then also Orbit
they're sort of...semi-sentient, I'd say
aware of surroundings but not really...there, if that makes sense
sort of like a complete loss of focus, but constant
semi-consciousness?
Like-- a dream?
Maybe that could explain how spirits were able to live before the elders fell
What if the spirits were always conscious, but the diamond explosion in eden partially erased their existence
lots of interesting stuff i missed 
Same 
tho ive never looked at isle's mural that much so i didnt notice that it might have connections with enchantment orbs
mooncow's theory is pre good
Assembly kids have chest lights like skids. Devs said that they were supposed to be "related" to each of the main elders or something?
Potentially, yes
all spirits have that, but oooo
Devs said ārelated to realm ancestorsā, not elders
the regular spirits
In another photo they have different coloured chest lights that's interesting
the Assembly troop are related to realm ancestors, not Elders
you know the horribly confusing way they rearranged the emotes?
That might as well be it, with each realm theyāre assigned to
Maybe the main kid is GW... Idono
Time to stare at the emote menu for 5 minutes straight
time to bring out realm ancestors jailshots
its kinda odd how theres only one kid in assembly that have a proper cape
i think capes do resemble some status
the way they only said 'realm ancestors' and not a specific realm for vagueness is just... 
and every spirit is an ancestor, wat ancestor do they mean??????
like, do they mean the seasons ancestors
bruuuuh
realm ancestors refer to basegame spirits I think
that also includes season spirits too tho
idk anymore
but the chuckling scout is definitely from wasteland
or very likely atleast
Why the emote rearrangement?
that imitation for a horned headwear and his role tells me hes from wasteland
Do people from certain realms have distinct personalities
Iām overthinking
but why rearrange emotes to not be in THE REALMS YOU SEE THE SPIRITS IN
lol
WOULDNāT THAT BE EASIER FOR US TO FIND
i just scrolled for like 2 minutes to find the clap emote again
I always thought that people from one realm act differently than those in another realm
-or add a feature that lets us rearrange our emotes for ourselves
yes
most of my most used emotes are down below the bar so thats not fun
Immediately puts my favorite emotes next to each other
i like the chuckling and facepalm emotes alot tho
Same
especially chuckling cus i have no business laughing like the laughing emote
me putting the spirits together where they should be
mhh yes, like how a lore hermit should do
BUT the assembly spirits are interesting
especially the qg
because he already remembers
and some spirit seems to be attached to certain furnitures
I'm so glad that we're able to interact with the spirits though
theyre different from the normal spirits
yes exactly
we can actually interact with em, or atleast the qg
i was pre startled when we high five'd the qg
I just went: Oh my god I love this can we please have more interaction tgc
my dream is to hug all the spirits
please
unless thereās an actual explained reason why not
Spirits are dead people
I want to hug them so bad 
you canāt hug ghosts
I wouldnāt mind āhuggingā them
that is, though going through them it being sort of one
Technically yes
Yes
please
Petition to have spirit hugging in-game
We are going to hug the Lone Scout (aka Assembly QG)
but I guess it would be hard to implement it for all the Spirits 
Yeees, the old Hide&Seek (or as I call her, Tall Lady)
She always look taller, because of her neck
Oh and in that chart there wasn't yet implemented the head-thing of Vault Scholars
That's an interesting one, even if I am not sure what if the first fallen star is the prince (I think I have a pic somewhere about seeing 3 trials of stars falling, in your case you zoomed just on one in Propechies Cave)
But I like it.
Side Note: I think we call them the 6 Realms, but ages ago probably Isle and Vault weren't realms, just the border/entrance of the kingdom and the core of the kingdom (the safe lybrary), the most outer and inner part, but not a Realm
That's why the 4 lights were divided to the 4 Realms and why this sculpture might be an hint
Dammit I don't have the picture anymor, the sculpture shown over this door
ok idk if someone else already pointed it out but each of the realms are like different stages of life.
office spoilers || plus in office on the idea wall thingie you can see this one picture with each of the realms and they're labeled like childhood, adulthood, etc||
like even the season events correspond with them. assembly is like childhood stuff, dreams was sort of about this girl growing up to become a skater?
Here it is :D
Technically, Sky is a post-post-apocalypse
I like this season more lore wise because before it seemed like the spirits were stuck in memory loops..this time you can high five them! So they're more "active" as it were?
Can we say ||eden|| spoilers here?
Of course
||Just some lore I made:||
||Chuckling Scout = Son of Laughing Lightcatcher||
||Baffled Botanist = Son of Pouty Porter||
||Scolding Student = Daughter of Confident Sightseer (or maybe sister)||
||Daydream Forester = Daughter of Sparkler Parent||
||Marching Adventurer = Son of Confident Sightseer||
||And Scaredy Cadet = Son of Frightened Refugee||
||My theory to support this? The emotes may have a different animation, but they have a familiar meaning all the same. It's possible that the spirits in assembly, are actually the sons and daughters of the other spirits we have met before.||
Sparkler parent has two kids, boogie kid and hairtousle teen
O h
Maybe, the confetti spirit then?
Season of belonging has spirits who are all related
I ' m n o t t h a t e x p e r i e n c e d
That's okay, don't worry about it
You can ask any non lore questions in #questions-and-help
Well, my points still stand about the chuckling scout being related to the laughing lightcatcher. The emotes just scream familiarity
Ok so the spirits... I know they're dead, and spirits, but do you think that on the spirit plane they reside in, they interact with each other every day like we do as players? And do you think they consciously help us along their memories, reliving them with us, bonding with us? Cause that would explain why it says to relive their memories to be their friend.
Hi lore chat how r yall today?
I havenāt read the lore of the hidden forest but i think people livin gin forest were, kind of merchats or sth. When you look at the walls of the first area, where has butterflys, you can see many boat drawings with pots. Also the are boats in that area with pots in it. I belive that area was uhhhh kinda used as a place where all pots are accepted. But why they were getting pots? Forest is the light mine of the kingdom, but they also made energy cristals too. But they needed more energy, so they bought butterflys from prairie. Yes, now we can ad prairie to our lore, since everything was all around valley, gw and eden. Their energy was coming from butterflys. AND valley was the source of light for gw! But they were giving more bigger creatures, like mantas. Becouse gw is the main cristal factory. And vault, vault was their tech place. They were trying to find stronger cristals. But that project didnt finished. Becouse king corrupted and storm has began. So that means, vault was tge most important place ever for them, it was their future. Gw was turned into caos and war, just sake of protecting the future, vault.
I swear my last homework text was shorter lol.
||i think that orbit is the āspirit dimencionā you are talking about. When you summon the spirits in orbit, you see them in their dimencion. You may question, the door of rebirth in bext to them, why they just dont go? Well, since their body destroyed (in my lore) when king has corrupted and storm has started, they dont have a ābodyā to get in. So they technically cant rebirth. But maybe the calls like manta or whale call, they may tried to rebirth by an animal. Or they are an animal, which means all creatures in sky can think or talk or sth, or maybe they randomy choose a body to rebirth each time they die and change bodiesšļøšļø
srry lol my brain no work at 1 am||
This is all interesting
Also you don't need to spoiler anything here
Ooooo
Meet the 6 Scouts (who are descendants of the Hidden Forest ancestors) and follow their past stories and experiences together.
So they all are from forest and not from each realm as we knew previously?
Yeah
No i meant way before
The season started
They said each spirit represents 1 realm iirc
Or something like that
Yeah
Lemme find it brb
no, they said each kid was connected to a realm ancestor
they said nothing about them being related to different realms 
Each spirit this season is individually related to the realm Ancestors of Sky ā with their theme and items a reflection of their personalities.
Apparently they were one group but they gone one by one and he is lonely now, so we r fixing there to bring them back
According to the emote menu it's
Isle - Student
Prairie - Scout
Forest - Cadet
Valley - Botanist
Wasteland - Adventurer
Vault - Forester
So each scout could be related to any of the spirits in those realms
seems congruent with them being descendants of forest ancestors, with "the realm ancestors" being forest ancestors
Oh ok so it was my misunderstanding
So to clarify each kid represents 1 spirit from the forest constellation?
each kid is a descendant of them it seems
Probably
Hmmmmmm
Imagine ||in season finale we see them together with their parents from forest and we discover who's who||
Imma go inspect the constellation and try to look for patterns

feel bad for whichever kids parent is the tearful lightminer
well, for adult spirits we got
Dismayed Hunter
Shivering Trailblazer
Tearful Light Miner (although imo they look like a teen, but tis debatable)
Apologetic Lumberjack
Whale Whisperer
Blushing Prospector
then the seasonal ones are
Provoking Performer
Laidback Pioneer
(not gonna include belonging bc theyre already a family)
Admiring Actor
and thats it i think ?
Ok so forest has 8 spirits
Minus hide n seek cuz they're a child themselves
Minus whalecall cyz they're nonexistent
hide n seek could be a sibling to one of them
Admiring Actor is blow kiss
She's literally called hidenseek pioneer so most likely
The lone scout is the Prince
debatable 

N o p e
blushing prospector's memories are related to them being on a date, and assuming all spirit memories take place at the same time, its debatable if BP is a parent to any of the scouts
But maybe
I abandoned my kingdom to go build a threehouse
prince: this royalty stuff is boring im going to harass children to make a treehouse with me
B r u h this would be my status if the present one wasnāt better
Spirit memories don't take place at the same time cuz we have seen the same spirits in different memories. For example the no spirit
not the exact same time, i mean about the same few years within each other
So minus blushing spirit
like if BP was only just going on a date with someone while the scouts were already around their tweens, its unlikely BP is one of their parents
What if they're divorced and looking forward to start a new lovelife
JCGSICSICG

yes, the likely spirits to be parents so far would probably be:
Dismayed Hunter
Shivering Trailblazer
Tearful Light Miner
Apologetic Lumberjack
Provoking Performer
Laidback Pioneer
although im unsure if AA would be a parent since theyre a travelling actor according to rhythm lore
Minus whale whisperer
why ?
They don't exist as a person
Their avatar is a placeholder
We get the emote from the bones
Yeah Actor is more unlikely to be one of their parents
We never see them anywhere in forest
Mystery solved? 
This is where the fun begins 
is a strict parent 100%%%%
Assembly Spirits
Assembly Guide
Baffled Botanist
Scolding Student
Scaredy Cadet
Marching Adventurer
Chuckling Scout
Daydream Forester
Possible Parents
Dismayed Hunter
Shivering Trailblazer
Tearful Light Miner
Apologetic Lumberjack
Provoking Performer
Laidback Pioneer
Matchmaking time
imo it seems Chuckle and Daydream are siblings
so i think they have the same parent
Yes that makes place for the 7th child
yeup
THEY'RE KIDS
Btw anyone noticing something familiar??
A chubby masculine character saves a feminine character from falling off a cliff
I'm looking at you season of dreams

most friends or even more than that dont sleep in the same room with their beds across the room from each other
their room looks like a sibling room, with beds across the room and two halves of the room for two kids
Do all the possible parents have their emotes emojis? Here
Let me check
What other possible parent has their memories in the forest entrance
trailblazer
thats the shivering one
wait you mean assembly kids ?
Huh
Face palm and scold are first
yeah and im saying trailblazer is at the forest entrance
whats the current topic
But why did you say that the spirit memories occured at the same period of a few years?
There are 3 main areas
FOREST ENTRANCE
this area has 2 kids and 2 possible parent figures
The facepalm
The scolding
Shimmering
Trailblazer
FOREST BROOK
marching
Eww
Kabuki
The angry spirit
And you get the memo
We got the pairs
Now we need to match them up in the pairs
laidback is also in forest brook
Oh wait yeah
What is the megabird?
its the possible god of the sky universe
Oh no dis does not help to narrow it down ((
often referred to using she/her
OUR GOD
isnt there only one spirit in forests entranee tho-
yeah
Huh.?
what seasonal spirit is at forest entrance ???
all the seasonal forest spirits are brook and onwards
aside from the assembly kids
@cold furnace this thing
thats an old concept of her, its not really accurate nowadays
Im so confused rn....
Which is the trailblazer
the shiver emote i think
trailblazer is the shivering emote
shush /lh
š
[screams]
Whoās Megabird?
Megabird is an elusive character. There is lots of conflicting theories and information from the concepts. Some believe they are like the god of the Sky world, others believe they are a personification of the universe/cycle of rebirth. Thereās other theories, but thereās no time to get into it. Reading the concepts would be useful to get an idea of Megabird, their development, and what they may be like in your theory.
Dismayed = baffled cuz their emoji looks to have the same meaning
i had an image of the in-game megabird but im having trouble sending it
Freezing traileblazer = scaredy cuz theyāre both very much afraid of water?
Ah thank you!
Ok possible parents
IMMA USE THEIR EMOTES CUZ IDK ABOUT THEIR NAMES
- COLD
- ANGRY
- KABUKI
- UMBRELLA
- SHOCKED
- DEEP BOW
- CRY
"emote"
"umbrella"
seems legit
ah yes my favorite emote umbrella
Don't come at me English is my 3rd
if you'd like a short introductory document to lore i can supply it
Here's the megabird that we see after credits in orbit
Pouty = scolding cuz both of them seems to inherit a family anger š
prety
oh thats what megabird is??- 
Kids
- Facepalm
- Scold
- Ew
- March
- Bubbles
- Chuckle
- Guide
thats commonly believed to be megabird, its TECHNICALLY not confirmed but theres little other possibility as to what else the big glowing bird-shaped thing made of stars could possibly be
Since when was the guide a descendant? Itās only the 6 scouts right?
Tc š§±
NOW MAKE A MATCH
- COLD - FACE-PALM
2.ANGRY - SCOLD - KABUKI - EW
- UMBRELLA - MARCH
- SHOCKED - BUBBLES
- DEEP BOW - CHUCKLE
- CRY - GUIDE
Dismayed Hunter = Facepalm
Pouty Porter = Scolding Student
Shivering = scaredy
I wrote this at random
So
Have you guys theorized anything about nick saying those seasonal spirits as skykids ?
Imagine this being actually correct
Saying W H A T
Watch the dev update video boy 
They can't be skykids because that's what we are
They're kids
Spirit kids
Imma rewatch it
That's probably unintentional
i think he meant spirit but ended up saying skykids
They are spirit kids
The gurl who appears in office is a skykid. But the half transparent beings are spirits. Even if they're kids
But again.... None of the spirit can do high-five with us except the quest giver and our fellow skykid friends
0:56 haha bouncy skykids
Not everything is canon and lore. Some things are just for gameplay
-ktjn
i mean i think its because its a scout themed teamwork season??
That's just for gameplay
Facepalm-cry
Scolding-Pouty
Shivering-Scaredy
maybe it has to do w the fact that theyre kids? smth like that idk 
But doesn't what the devs said just mean that the spirits follow the overall theme of forest ancestors? Because the forest is teenage angst and confusion but playfulness and joy too
As are our little scouts
Okay i understood but.. but umm I've something to say assuming if they're actually skykids not ancestors.
what if they're actually those who came before us and lived in sky.
What if there were another generation before us but they weren't able to make it through eden and died in eden.. we see some dead kids before eden cave (in the pic below) and they looks more like skykid's ded body not ancestor's .. probably they died there because darkness caught them.. ik those might be left over from old beta .. but who knows ...
Just a theory.
Children of light
Skykids
Spirits
These 3 are different types of humanoids in sky
children of the light are the wl children?
children of light is?
winged light
Wl are stars
i think theyre the wl-
winged light and children of light is separate i believe-
statues?
i dont think statues count
Children of light are the ones who came to save eden but failed. They are the winged lights and the statues in eden
Skykids are us
Spirits are the ancestors
Elders are the semigods
They do
The statues is skids to
what i thought children of lights are skykids?? what??
Ye
the only canon thing in beta is the diamond exploding
Yes its one of the theoryās
wait so wls are kinda their souls and we return it to them?? like??
yes actually
They are stars o
Fun fact
Kingdom of sky isn't our home
Neither is the orbit
then which is home?
We are in the sky
are we homeless-
We are called to sky by Megan to help save it
The game is about saving the kingdom

What if a skykid fell?
Like a fallen angel?
Mega bird just sent us
Skykids have been here we haven't been sent by anyone
i read that as megabird sus
We were just given the gift of light
Ye wait I
What if we got the gift of darkness 
P. S. Y'all ever wondered why our candles have heart shaped halo 
No imsismsjsānsksmsjsjskjsjsksmsmmsjs
Itās because our hearts are candles to
Smksjsi
*flame
Ye
We are candles 
No
The whole world is a candle
Yes
No actually
I guess
They show it in the end of eden
Reject humanity become candle
Well
šÆļø
so uh
elders (and spirits?) fell/got banished from orbit?
they built sky kingdom
powerstones give them knowledge power and stuffs
then uh some stuffs happened
eden explodes
everyone dies
the end
Yo wait what are the elders names
they have no name
They fell because of dakrnesss mega bird is weak lol
I have my interpretation of the doomsday if y'all would like i can share it with yall
their names are fanon
Yes
Oh
So tsadi isn't gws canon name then
Yes
But you should use the elder names and the name Megan minimum said in the pins
wait why did eden explode?
You say megan and all I think of is megan from drake n Josh
wait who are we talking about? 
YOOO
Hi
hide and seek spirit
So in the several spirits memories we see nighttime for places that are seemingly always in day for example the yawn spirt and the dreams finale.
Meaning that the planet rotated on a normal speed.
Y'all ever heard about white holes and quasars?
White hole - is impossible to reach to. Repels everything. The opposite of black hole.
Quasar. An intense concentration of energy and matter in a small place
And now sky
Power diamonds - concentrated light aka energy
Eden diamond. A GIGANTIC diamond with concentrated energy.
What happened is they tried to concentrate TOO mich energy which resulted firstly in explosion that destroyed the kingdom and killed its citizens.
Second it slowed down the rotation of the planet by creating a mega earthquake. Right now the planet moves at the same speed it rotates around its core. Meaning its always the same time in different places.
white hole = the opposite of white hole
what
Lmao w Megan I think is the short name for mega bird
I meant black sorry
Yeah megabird was referred to as megan, still kinda is
Forgot to add that quasars shine a beam of light.... Just like the eden
oh ok
Itās from brick tho
So what's the thing with our lord and savior the corrupt king
He dead
so eden exploded because the elders woke up and decided its time for power diamonds
Imo yes
is anyone going to pay attention to the fact that
Assembly spirits are CONFIRMED AS DESCENDANTS OF FOREST SP
I wonder which one is which
how badly did this interrupt
- COLD - FACE-PALM
2.ANGRY - SCOLD - KABUKI - EW
- UMBRELLA - MARCH
- SHOCKED - BUBBLES
- DEEP BOW - CHUCKLE
- CRY - GUIDE
"umbrella"
On left is the spirit with their most known and easiest name
