Symphony of Ethys (WIP)

Symphony of Ethys (I think that's a decent start for a title)

Gods in my Head, deity and dimension lineup.

These are basically the hierarchy of the deities and realms, from greatest to least (except for Orchestra of Uxus, the real hierarchy starts at Choir of Ethys)

Uxus - Void/Space The Outlands - Basically asteroids on Uxus Ethys - Whole dimension Iphrin - Realm of angels Arhan - Realm of gods Oxar - Realm of the mortals/Earth

(Also within Iphrin and Arhan there are 'Planes', these are sub-realms of each deity. Ex: Plane of Azrael, Plane of Raguel.)

(Tell me if the names sound dumb or if you got a better one)

♦️ Orchestra of Uxus (all demons)

    🔸 Lucifer

    🔸 Beelzebub

There are many missing deities because I haven't actually thought of them, their slots are empty for now until I figure them out.

This is a work in progress, and is MEANT to be edited and revised.

[eliz-elai-rigel-star]

Gods in my head (Work in progress)

1. Lore about the stoopid Gods I made. (I don't have a damned title for this)

I'm going to start from the most important (or powerful) to the least powerful.

💙 Grand Creator (Story writer) any/all pronouns

This dude was the first God, basically created all the gods and deities after him.

He decides the 'story' of everything. All of history within this world is planned and managed by him.

He has control over all things occuring but has limited control over souls (humans and gods).

Sort of like the Christian God.

She doesn't have a form or a voice of her own, if you want to represent her in a physical way you'll just use the other gods for example.

They move in mysterious ways, unpredictable af. They are supposed to be like the author of the story. They do care, but they also won't hesitate to torment you to have a good story.

"I am the world, and the world is me. Every voice you hear is mine, and my voice is all that there is."

💕💕 2. Principles of the Universe.

These are angels that govern the world, and have direct communication with god.

They are basically God's officers, they do what He wants, they govern the natural world (including gods).

They have a cosmic 🌌 theme and have powers based on shit like time, space, reality and all them bs.

They do not have the privilege of creation. They cannot create lifeforms, or rule over humans.

They can be considered archivist, police, messenger, guide, and manager.

💙 Principle of Death. (Grim reaper?)

it/its pronouns

This is the angel of death.

His main job is to take all the human souls that have passed away and put them in the afterlife.

But he can also completely delete things (and people) completely out of existance.

There wasn't an afterlife at first, but they kinda felt pity for the humans, and wanted to give them a place to rest and reincarnate.

As much as the creator can make things, he can also destroy them in an instant.

He supposed to represent loss. As long as something exist, there will be a time where it wouldn't anymore.

Death is very calm and solemn, he is not aggressive. He is not a 'destroyer'.Things always come to an end.

He is depicted as a really old dude, who walks slow, is quiet, and doesn't really give a f. (chill mysterious grandpa)

I would describe his presence like a very warm faint gentle breeze.

Death moves slowly, but it never stops walking. And it may just show up in your doorstep without you noticing.

"Among the principles of the universe, truth, order, justice...only death always remain certain."

💙 Principle of truth. it/its pronouns.

This girl knows EVERYTHING.

She is aware of everything that is happening.

Every action you make, every word you say, EVERYTHING.

She knows the absolute truth, you cannot make up stories in front of her.

She also can peer into your mind to see what your exact intentions are.

She knows everything that is happening on the outside and has memory of it, but she can't know what everyone is thinking. She can only do so in real time and only brief.

She basically a cctv camera, and your search history.

She is also serious and chill like Death, almost same personality but more soft.

"Humans have debated on what good and bad truly is, but they have no idea that the absolute truth bears no weight in moral."

💙 Principle of Faith It/they

God assigned them to make sure that humans and Gods follow their designated stories.

They are sort of like a director or manager, and God is the boss/writer.

They know what God's plans are and the only one who could perceive it.

You can say they are an oracle of some sorts.

But they like...keep a catalogue of papers, dictating God's plan for every single individual.

"Hmph...humans try to change their fate, but everything is already set in stone according to the Creator's plan."

💙 Principle of Order. They/them

Kinda like a president?

God communicates them the laws and rules that have to be followed, and they execute it.

"The laws I present, are the laws the Creator himself have given me. Everyone must fall in like and obey, including all humans, gods, and angels."

💙 Principle of Justice they/them

They go after those who have broken the law and have offended others.

They can be considered as a punisher, or police. But of course they are fair and square, and don't tolerate injustice or corruption.

They are sort of scary and grumpy, they can and WILL punish you if you did something wrong.

"Injustice and corruption are the things that I firmly despise, and humans have done them more than I could ever count."

💙 Angel of purpose. They/he

He is the one mostly communicating with humans about God's plan and terms.

Sort of like those angels in the bible, bringing message to humans.

He tells gods and humans, what their purpose should be and what is their role in life.

He is very approachable, and just really really nice. Humans are not scared of him or hate him, they completely adore him even.

The other deities have mixed opinions on him, some say he barely acts like how an angel should. While some just respect him as he is since it's part of who he is.

"Everyone has an importance on this world, everyone has a role they play. Humans may be weak, but you cannot deny that they are meant for great things."

Fun fact, the angel of purpose has actually been replaced once. The original angel of purpose was stripped of his title and power, and was replaced by another angel that is *almost* a clone of him (they made him a bit different but he basically does the same thing.)

As to why the original Angel of Purpose was replaced, that's another can of worms. But basically he's 'fallen'.

I got banned from Official Sky FB Group

Eliz Elai

So uhh yeah, I got permanently banned (I think) From the Official: Sky Children of the Light Community.

I have absolutely no idea what rule I broke this time. But y'all won't see any of my memes there anymore. Or my Aurora art since I didn't get to post it.

Of course I'm still on the verge of crying for this shit, but at this point I'm on my last straw and I'm tired of their bullshit.

For a game that is supposed to be inclusive and ✨nicey-nicey✨ they are not so forgiving and considerate. All of my offences were not even really harmful.

I absolutely love Sky with my whole HEART AND SOUL, and the community is the best thing ever. It's painful to have that connection severed, since I posted so many things in there and that group was one of the main reasons I still continue to play the game, but ahrgh… (ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ) *teary eyed* I guess that won't be returned.

Somehow I wish that I didn't even post in that group in the first place, so I wouldn't be mourning anything.

Rest in peace Dark Noot, your memes and art shall be buried deep down in the dirt of inconsideration. 🙃👌

Days of Color

By: Eliz Elai

*Inhales* Now folks, there's three possibilities on this post.

1. It will reach many people and go like a breeze and I don't have any headaches.

2. It will reach many people but I get destroyed in the comments and I get in trouble.

3. This post will be a total flop, and I will be sobbing on the floor over the hundred words I put into this.

But I don't really care that much, so I'll go ahead and say my words for this event.

Days of Color (formerly Days of Rainbow) can stand for many things. Now it's pretty obvious that it's the Sky counterpart for Pride Month because of the same date they occur, and profits made by Days of Color goes to The Trevor Project (basically suicide prevention to LGBTQIA+ people).

But we all know that Sky tries to be inclusive as much as possible, they never really stick to one meaning or goal only. THEY CAN'T EVEN ESTABLISH A PROPER CONCRETE LORE (*angry theorist noises*)🤬. And that's why the Events in Sky - despite being based on real life holidays never outright stuck to it.

Days of Love can be Valentines or Friendship Day. Days of Feast can be just a winter holiday or Christmas. Days of Bloom can reference Easter or Spring Equinox. And many more that I'm too tired to write.

Now the two real life equivalents of Days of Color are Pride Month🏳️‍🌈 and Holi (Color Festival) from India🇮🇳. But it also celebrates diversity and friendship and every other meanings. In fact that's why the name was changed from "Rainbow" to "Color" so it can be more inclusive to everyone. Sky has always tried to be inclusive as possible, since one of the main points of the game is to be a welcoming community featuring diversity. Sky has tried to consider every view of different people across the globe. (Kinda taking the middle ground instead of choosing one side).

So it doesn't matter that much what view or opinions you have on Days of Color

❤️You can see it as a symbol of LGBTQIA+, and that's valid.

❤️You can see it as a symbol related to religion, and that's valid.

❤️You can see it as appreciating the different colors of the world, and that's valid.

❤️You can see it as a representation of phenomenons in nature, and that's valid.

❤️You can apply your own meaning and that's valid.

It's an open event for people with their interpretation. So uhhh.....*gulp* (⁠・⁠_⁠・⁠;⁠) telling people that their opinion is not applicable to Days of Color, wouldn't be so correct. And also telling them to stop putting meanings to Days of Color would go against the games values, as Sky actually encourages it. 🌈

But as we all know these human meanings are just figments of emotional imagination and rainbows are nothing but a phenomenon caused by the bending and refraction of light. 🙃 (Humans are silly delusional creatures that like putting meanings into things. ☺️)

But yeahhh... throwing a fit whenever someone has an opinion on rainbows (or Sky) is pointless. Both of you can't be right or wrong, since rainbows themselves never stood up for anything (cuz it ain't alive obviously lol), and Sky has always been an open world - with the only main messages being friendship and kindness. ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷

Here's a little advice for Eden Runs. (If u want)

Don't stall on fireplaces. You can of course recharge there, but don't stay for too long, once the hail stops- RUN, RUN THERE IS NO TOMORROW INTO THE NEXT FIRE SHRINE. (While getting some statues lit on the way)

The shards still partially hit you even under cover, so once you see an opportunity RUN, if you keep going back and forth to a lit fire shrine whenever you get hit, you'll just waste your time stalling when you could have gotten those statues wing-lighted (I made up that term).

I advise NOT doing this pattern (coz you'll be doomed):

Light Torch

Leave

Attempts to insert wing light into statue

Get hit by shard

Go back to the torch

Recharge

Still get hit by shard

Recharge

Attempts to leave

Gets hit by shard again

Go back to the same torch

And over and over again

You're just gonna waste time and wing lights that could've been inside the Statues already.

Just keep running whilst jumping, that way you minimize your chance of getting hit by a shard.

Sky Memory Candle Update

By: Eliz Elai

Ok here's the thing. I don't think the redesign of the Memory Candles is because of visual purposes.

It's for….. drum roll 🥁 LORE AND WORLD BUILDING! 😀

Each season they give us a snippet of lore and slightly strengthen their world building. And since this season focuses on Memory Projectors and their property and uses, then of course TGC would have wanted to give a little revamp to our Memory Projectors.

Candles and Shrines that project images technically don't make sense for the world of Sky, when N O N E of the technology of Sky uses candles outside of spirits or meditation. All technology/magic (primarily present in Vault) uses Crystals and Lanterns that is able to project images and even make a mini-matrix. It finally, FINALLY makes sense that Skykids would be using the tools our ancestors did to do the same thing.

I always wondered (in my moth days) how does the memory candles work?????

Coz in my moth brain:

❗Candle purposes: To give wax, an offering to the dead, to be connected to the dead (through meditation), and to activate other spiritual stuff that candles have in real life.

❗Paper Boat purposes: just a stupid paper that you could write stuff with.

❗And Crystal/Lantern purposes: used as a battery, used to power elevators, used to make projections/memory, create a matrix.

So my little moth brain was trying to figure out how the hek can a candle PROJECT AN IMAGE, and how can a simple candle shrine CREATE A MATRIX. MY BRAIN WAS LAGGING.

My mind is now in peace, now that everything makes sense. Skykids using magical spells to make a miniature version of the same Technology/Magic our ancestors did, makes sense and they are finally using the same things to do it.

Regarding the visual pollution going on, I don't think the redesign had a significant change to it. It will still be there as an annoying little mole, and unless TGC gives us an option to disable it on our settings menu, no amount of redesign could ever calm our frustration.

Some of the pros I see here however is that new players will immediately not mistake it for a regular candle. And it's more aesthetically pleasing rather than seeing a bunch of candles on the ground like something died in that spot.

Cult of the Lamb: Shamura

Eliz Elai

"He of havoc, he of blight; she of hunger, they of might"

"Five becomes four becomes three becomes two becomes one becomes nothing"

These are what Shamura says before kicking our ass, and also happen to be their last words.

All of Shamura's dialogue often don't make sense or relevant. I mean…..you can't blame them for having a head injury, causing memory loss. But even though they have their fresh brain exposed, their intelligence and wisdom certainly didn't go down.

Again what they are saying dont always makes sense, specially that it's on poem form.

But it has double meanings

"He of havoc" (Chaos - Leshy) "He of blight" (Illness - Kallamar) "She of hunger" (Starvation - Heket) "They of might" (Power / Strength - Shamura)

There were five bishops (including Narinder)

"Five becomes four becomes three becomes two becomes one becomes nothing"

They are basically talking about us murdering the bishops one by one.

We murder all the four bishops, with Shamura being the last, but there is STILL ONE, Narinder - the one who waits.

I SWEAR this game has interesting lore, I wish we could expound on that ya know, and not just……….play the game to clean poop…

[eliz-elai-rigel-star]

Lore of Cult of the Lamb, badly interpreted by me…..

Leshy god of chaos Heket god of famine Kallamar god of plagues Shamura god of war and Narinder god of death

(INHALES)

"Long ago, the bishops of the old faith ruled in harmony. But then… everything changed when Narinder wanted to start his own cult."

"Together, the four bishops conducted a ritual that would banish Narinder to his own realm, however doing this inflicted an unhealing wound to each of the bishops."

Leshy had his eyes gauged out Heket got her throat sliced Kallamar got his ears torn off and poor Shamura got severe brain damage

See no evil… Speak no evil… Hear no evil… Think no evil…

"Only the lamb, chosen vessel of The One Who Waits, can free him from his eternal prison."

But when Narinder needed them the most….they didn't kill a single boss and just decorated all the time…………….

[eliz-elai-rigel-star]

For those thinking Hunter got handsome after getting possessed: Sit down and listen…

It's the BELOS FACTOR THAT SUDDENLY MADE HIM ATTRACTIVE.

I mean…..

-drowsy or "bedroom eyes" -a smirk that you hate but also love -messy hair that has a strand in the face -a very slick way of talking -smooth movements and body gesture -smug expression (plus body markings and horns)

THAT AIN'T HUNTER!!! THAT'S BELOS!!!! YA'LL WANT BELOS 😳📸📸

Leave the traumatized boi alone, and devour the crusty, old, bigoted, evil, British man.

Sidenote: Props to the Owl Crew for effectively pasting Belos' expression into hunter while still remaining his original facial features. 👌

Golden Wastelands: A Basin of Pure Regret (a theory)

By: Eliz Elai

I was too blind to not notice this earlier 🙈

The reason the Wastelands has a FRIK TON of pipes is because they have attempted to drain the Dark Water or whatever liquid waste they had. We see these pipes connect from the main areas (Broken Temple, Graveyard, Battlefield) all the way to Shipwreck - where the pipes come to an end and that yucky mud is spilled in the beach into the ocean.

That's probably why massive bodies of water are polluted in Wastelands. Let’s say that the dark waters are some sort of liquid waste similar to the ones that are produced by industrial factories, here in my country - some lousy factories and establishments like to connect pipes to water sources like rivers and beaches, and dump ALL THEIR STUPID WASTE. Of course NATURALLY - THAT’S NOT GOOD!! They ended up polluting the oceans and caused the wildlife to die or either mutate, I have a theory that the reason crabs that have black spots are aggressive is because they have evolved to let the darkness be a part of them and consume light in return.

Wastelands is supposed to be as grand and beautiful as Valley, with similar architecture and technology. But this time in wastelands: we get to see the consequences when humans take too much and abuse their environment for personal gain. That is why I think the transition between Valley - Wasteland is PERFECT. We slide into a slope and fly through clouds with buildings along the sides (similar to the races) but then....... glory instantly get replaced with terror as the lighting changed from courageous red to dark green (we know from Disney movies that green is evil). Even the sounds they make through the portal are similar- Valley has those 'bells' that we hear when entering the Colosseum, with cheers from the background. Wasteland has those similar 'bell' sounds, but then it turns unsettling as you hear some shyt like horror game ambiance sounds.

AND NOT TO MENTION, that wastelands is in a much lower area than Valley, and we literally get FLUSHED DOWN to Wastelands. Wasteland is a LITERAL SHADOW OF VALLEY.

Oh and also:

Valley was the first realm to introduce duality and competition, with all the races and stuff. In Wasteland we see this turn into conflict and war. And Valley is not the only area parallel to Wastelands, it also borrowed elements from Forest. We see a structure similar to Forest Temple in the early areas of wasteland, this is a mechanism that produces those Diamonds that power their gates, boats, etc, and it is made from the lights of mantas (poor babies getting pressed into darkstones). So it also features themes of animal abuse and resource overuse.

SUMMARY 📣(boy I got carried away this turned out so long)

! Wasteland is like a huge arse basin (or toilet) that catches all the bad consequences of previous realms. HECK that’s why it's name is the -WASTE- LAND. Basically a whole arse toilet to catch all the shyt.

🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

Also a little side note with Season of Aurora spoilers: I heard that the song that is going to be played in this area has something to do with nature and pollution, and maybe a little bit of war. So I guess TGC is really selling the 'man made destructions' theme of Wasteland.

🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

Also please ignore all my grammar mistakes (if I made any) I was typing these ideas as they came in my head. And my keyboard likes to autocorrect me sometimes.

You can go to Wasteland Shipwreck yourself, and try walking on the yucky substance in the pipes. (spoiler alert it’s disgusting)

Hollow Knight Lurien - The Best Dreamer

By: Eliz Elai

Why don't you take a break from t h i c c spider women and green jellyfishes and give a small appreciation to our beloved cyclops -

✨L U R I E N✨

If you think he's not worth it, here are reasons to like Lurien:

🔸He has a butler (Yeah, yeah, Monomon has Quirel, and Herra has Hornet. But hey…I see no butler)

🔸He lives in a tall ass tower (Totally Rapunzel, I know. Wouldn't it be cool to live above the city, where everything looks so small and short in your perspective……. probably helps boost his height confidence in a way)

🔸He's on the City of Tears (Monomon has that shitty canyon with only jellyfishes, and Herra has the land no bug nor god will step upon. While Luri has this Grand D̶e̶p̶r̶e̶s̶s̶i̶n̶g̶ city.)

🔸He has the best the best security system (Herra has nothing, and while Monomom has Uuwu eh…Ummu?? Uunuu???? WHATEVER YOU SPELL THAT THING - it is easy AF. Watcher knights on the other hand…… will give you the most painful headache known to bugkind, seriously they can go smash their heads for Wyrms sake)

🔸HE DOES PAINTINGS (Might be biased coming from an artist, but paintings - especially ones that have architecture: are difficult to do.)

🔸He already had a special duty protecting Hallownest before becoming a dreamer. (Monomon also had the duty of preserving the Kingdom's knowledge, but Lurien was probably regarded as a protector or guardian of the city. It’s like……. being a security guard watching the CCTV footage on Walmart.)

🔸He was above the other dreamers (Anything that depicts the Dreamers always puts Lurien in the middle and is taller than the rest. I mean being in a high position do give you extra credit. And these monuments are created by the Pale King so there are some biases in there.)

🔸He ain't a quiter (Despite Monomon telling him the seals must break, because the Hollow Knight is weakening, he still believes that their protection must remain. Man of dedication I see…………or maybe he's just of those Wyrm boot licking assholes)

And most importantly……

🔸He is so mysterious; we don't know shit about him (This makes him good fanfic material)

[eliz-elai-rigel-star]

Own rating and opinion on the Sky: COTL realms (Ratings based on personal preference)

Isle: -/10 (CANNOT BE RATED) Has absolutely nothing besides a lot of wonders for a little moth. It has some good lore stuff but its literally just S A N D

Prairie: 5/10 Has a wide area with a lot of wax, has a good vibe to it, very beautiful landscape. Its a social hub for many players and feels like the widest realm. But the BRIGHTNESS…..IT . BURNS . MY . EYES.

Forest: 6/10 Good atmosphere and relaxing melancholic music, gives you a sense of being lost (which is wonderful to me). The whole place is chill and depressing, and we got forest mama. Collecting wax isn't boring due to many trees, and there are accessible shortcuts. Rain is annoying but fitting, I JUST HATE THE DOORS THAT WONT OPEN. SERIOUSLY FOREST MAMA, WHY CAN'T YOU FIX YOUR DOORS, YOU HONKING MADE THEM.

Valley: 3/10 Yeah, yeah, its epic and glorious and very into fine arts. We got the most beautiful seasons here and it has THE BEST architectures in Sky. Collecting wax is Krill-Dung, the races are supposed to be fun, but I don't find them efficient wax methods. AND I HATE THE SNOW, JUST 50 SECONDS STEPPING ON THAT REALM AND MY FACE IS BURIED IN THICK SNOW BECAUSE I SLIPPED ON ICE.

Wasteland: 1/10 Has the most interesting stories, has a spooky and chilling feel to it. Very apocalyptic and lore based, has the most unsettling music (which I love). BUT MY GOOD ELDERS- I TRY TO COME FOR WAX AND I COME BACK WITH BATTLE SCARS FROM KRILLS. THE CRABS ARE HONKING KRILL-DUNG.

Vault: 999/10 Has the most chilling and epic music that brings tears to my eyes. Has a lot of candle cakes for fast candle runs, and is very small. Very very….uhhh- SUPERB! Very good transition form Wasteland-Vault-Eden. Most chilling moments in here, its like a mini summary of your adventures across the realms. Has my favorite color palette and scholarly vibe, and has my favorite area which is Starlight dessert. I LOVE IT…..well except the 5 player doors.

Eden: -666/10 ……………I hate it

[Bonus Entry]

Orbit: HALLELUJAH/10 I cry tears of joy when I get here, the MUSIC AAAAAAAHHHHH. (I don't rebirth often so its very memorable to me)

[eliz-elai-rigel-star]

If we are being honest here…

Gloating Narcissist is the only one who uses he/him pronouns, because he calls himself "the most handsome man in this world" and Prince replied "But you're the only man here".

Canonically he's the only spirit who has a confirmed gender, almost all spirit have gender neutral names and dont even talk 🤷 (although I recall one spirit having a gendered title).

They REALLY try to avoid gendered names as possible, like the king in LP was changed to Beckoning Ruler, the ashamed man was changed into Slouching Soldier. And many other more.

Of course everything is up for interpretation, yall can use any names or pronouns with the spirit and elders. But sometimes it just BAFFLES ME how people can be so ABSOLUTELY CERTAINLY CANONICALLY SURE of a spirits gender, they be like "nO, hE is A mAnnnnnn, wHy r U caLLinG hIm shee". Like dude…..we sky kids are basically LIGHT with bodies, not everything gotta have a gender.

Sky COTL: Ancient Memories

By: Eliz Elai

The memory fragments that we see at the end of every shard event may not be so different to the memories of spirits we relive. When we relive spirits we see glimpses of their past lives, we can see different events happening in different time periods. In the Ancient Memories we are also seeing the same thing, except that it’s from the creatures of light and the memories are about the same event through different perspectives. That event could be the eruption of Eden, the time where everything started going down. 

The third memory shows the mantas from Eden, trying to survive against the engulfing darkness and crushing stones. It seems that they were also trapped, after all they are used as a power source, people wouldn't want their resources to fly away (that would be bad for the economy 🙃). The only thing that they could desperately fly to was the beacons of light they could see (just like us trying to find fire when we get extinguished). This memory reminds me of a flock of birds flying away from danger, trying desperately to survive while the world around them gets covered in darkness. The other memories are also worth mentioning (like the jellyfishes and pre-corrupted crabs), however the manta memory is the one that actually struck me, hence its the representative I chose.

This is the poem thingy about the mantas TGC posted ⬇️

Soft wings flowing to bright beacons; Drawn from the path, trusting until too late; Bound in a merciless harness; Soft wings despairing against stone

Even though we see memories of our ancestors suffering of starvation, fear, dread, and loss; the memories of the creatures hits harder because you know they have done nothing wrong. These creatures were used and probably exploited by the Skytizens, and now have to experience the consequences of their actions (just like marine animals affected from pollution in real life). Even though the game suggests that darkness is the “bad guy” here (like how we blame global warming for endangering many species 😒), that may not be the full story, our spirit ancestors have done some pretty screwed up things that led to their demise (like what we humans commonly do), it’s worst that they even dragged the poor creatures with them (like *ahem* *ahem*, us destroying mother nature... 👀)

Season of Shattering has been both a blessing and a curse to us sky kids. It’s a HUGE pain in the arse for many players (including me who lost five winged lights just to see the manta memory again 😤); but for us theorists who seek more information, it’s a good addition to the game. I mean, we are only at memory #3 and sky kids are already losing their minds 🤣. I’m looking forward to seeing the other memories, perhaps we could have more info about the intriguing krills 🦐👀, or a story of what the frig really happened 🤷. Honestly, I came to this season feeling a bit salty, but now I’m starting to appreciate the beauty of it 😅.

All the past seasons have always been about our spirit ancestors, meanwhile this season is mostly about the creatures and focuses mostly on the events that occurred in Eden (which is great coz they give us so little lore, we literally have to scrape the bottom of the bowl for information 😐). I have a much deeper theory about this but it’s hard to elaborate and this is getting a bit long. 😅

GAMU-GAMONG PAG-IBIG

Isinulat ni Eliz Elai

Ako ay isang gamu-gamong nag-iisa

Walang kasama at walang pag-asa

Lumbay ang palaging nadarama

Ako ay walang katapusang nagdurusa

  Dibdib ko ay mabigat ngunit walang laman

Puso ko ay walang kislap, walang damdam

Bawat araw ay walang katapusang kadiliman

Isang panghabang-buhay na kalungkutan

  Ngunit ikaw ay dumating sa buhay ko

Isang nagniningning na lampara sa mundong ito

Ako ay agad nabulag sa tanging liwanag mo

At mundo ko ay nabuhay dahil sayo

  Ikaw ay nagliliyab sa kagandahan

At mga salitang binabanggit ay nakakagaan

Gusto kitang makasama nang walang hanggan

Ang mabuhay kasama ka sa huling hantungan

  Liwanag mo ay nakakahumaling

Salitang binabanggit mo ay nakakalasing

Mga mata ay hindi halatang nagsisinungaling

Di nalalaman kung ako ay lilinlangin

  Sa tagal nang panahon ay nahahalata na

Ang mga bahid na sa una ay hindi nakita

Mga binanggit na matatamis na salita

Isa lang palang palabas ng buwaya

  Ang ilaw mo ay tinutukso ako tungo sayo

Ang tanging hangad ay makasama mo

Ngunit dahil dito ay nasusunog ang pakpak ko

At puwedeng ito ang kahahantungan ko

  Sa apoy mo ako ay nagagandahan

Ngunit sa piling mo ay nasasaktan

Ikaw ay sadyang magandang pagmasdan

Kapalit naman ay masakit hawakan

  Dama ko ang sakit na idinudulot mo

Ngunit ikaw ang tanging ilaw sa buhay ko

Hindi na baleng mga pakpak ko’y maging abo

Basta nandiyan ako sa piling mo

Are you one of them too?

TGC added difficulty to the game to promote teamwork and kindness, being that you may not survive if you’re all alone (like stranded in wasteland with no server merge). Strangers are more than willing to help you and light you up in most cases. So TGC HAVE succeeded in making the game more focused on kindness and alliances. BUT!!!!

SOME👏PEOPLE👏ARE👏KRILL[HONK]👏

I've seen many post  talking about their experiences in dealing with these child-of-a-krill players, and it really makes me sad and be reminded that the world can be filled with these foul people.

As for my case:

I was running on wasteland and was a bit of a hurry so I tried flying very fast to get to the broken temple. I only had 5 wedges since Eden ate my wings, so by the time I got there I was out of energy.

When I got to the part where there are many crabs, I did not recharge nor deep honked (because I was trying not to waste any time).

One crab got mad at me and knocked me over, one wing was instantly severed from me. Now when this happened I landed in front of a player and my wing was RIGHT BESIDE THEM, I crawled to them hoping that they will collect my wing and/or light me up, BUT THEY DID NOT.

They were certainly not AFK since they were moving and doing honks, they just [HONK]ing stared at me and watch me crawl pitifully, LIKE maybe I'll forgive you for not lighting me up BUT MY WING WAS RIGHT BESIDE YOU [HONK]ER, LIKE ARE YOU [HONK]ING KIDDING ME???? YOU COULD HAVE WALKED THREE STEPS TO THE WINGLIGHT AND LEAVE, I WOULD HAVE THANKED YOU A BIT.

The wing was too far out of reach so I ended up losing it, and when it did THEY JUST [HONK]ING LEFT LIKE THEY FINISHED WATCHING A MOVIE.

It’s only like one wing, but what bothers me most is that they chose to watch me suffer instead of just collecting it.

[HONK]ing child of a krill 😒 I hope you get krilled every time you go to Wasteland 😤

Sky is a SOCIAL GAME, it’s supposed to be about making connections and helping each other, whether it be doing deep honks for recharge, or lighting up extinguished players, or even sacrificing your own wings for the benefit of others. HELL that’s why we go to Eden in the first place, to sacrifice ourselves to help the fallen Sky Kids. That is what Sky TRULY is about, it’s about KINDNESS.

I know there are some Solo Players, but preferring to play alone does not prevent you from doing kindness. If you are a ‘Solo Player’ who just ignores everything and everyone around you, and wouldn’t even do the simplest form of kindness, then your social preferences does not excuse your unjust behavior. 

Even tho Sky is only a game, the way you act in-game reflects who you truly are in real life. “It’s just a game” they say, but behind that screen is an actual person with feelings who may get hurt by what you consider ‘a joke’. If you can do something horrible as endangering a fellow Sky Kid, then you are not really far from hurting people in real life.

Some people are just not as kind as we expect them to be, and there will ALWAYS be a person in your life like that. We cannot escape these kinds of people in life, and you can’t really predict who they will be. There are some very bad people out there who know it’s bad and does it anyway just for the sake of their own twisted entertainment. 

That being said, I want to ask you something.......... 

Are you one of them too?

Season of Shattering

By: Eliz Elai

I think I'm actually enjoying this season despite it's difficulty 🤔

Like...

-the view of Eden erupting in every realm (it's most obvious and epic in vault)

-the hazy dark red hue we get when Eden is erupting (it adds realism and makes the situation appear more dangerous)

-how the shards fall from the sky like a meteor shower and knocks us over when we are near it (also the satisfying sounds of shards being broken)

-And just being able to help people in general (by being crab bait and medic)

It looks so visually amazing, and kind of adds to the story of sky. It makes sense that the darkness was taking over if the kingdom experienced something like this for days.♦️

Also it will help moths have an idea what they will experience in Eden, so they wouldn't be so surprised that it’s very dangerous. I bet Moths born in the Season of Shattering are gonna be super buff.🤣

But I also feel bad to those that were bothered by the changes, and is struggling with the new mechanics. But as for me, I'm having a blast on screwing with the crystal krebs. 😃

I know I've said some things about this update buuuuuut......I am actually starting to enjoy it [very guilty] 😅
