#Venice could write a textbook on his own with what he knows about Sonic. it would be inaccurate as any other textbook though

[libelelle]

ik youve probably said this b4 but i forgor: venice is good with history but what's the general knowledge on sonic + friends? is this all folk stories or textbook material?

Answer got a little long so its under here : ) ⬇️

Textbook material!! Most of their adventures are well known, but a lot of details and events are messed up. Silvers existence as a whole has been basically erased. Someone made very sure that there was nothing identifiable about this mysterious person who occasionally helped sonic in some of his most famous adventure.

Overall the public knowledge is that he was a really important hero, but the actual stories about what he did are inconsistent and either dramaticized or watered down. Venice knows more than average, and has done a crazy amount of research on popular theories. He has a pretty good idea of what actually happened, or he thought he did before Silver showed up. The most well documented events is probably the War, just on account of the resistance members and their accounts of the events (despite this, silvers identity was still erased. Bet that was fun to do) topics they probably covered from sonics era are the War, flooding of station square, the events of sa2, black arms invasion, mostly just planetwide threats that everyone knew about when they happened. Things like the black arms invasion are the biggest victims of inaccuracies.

There are folk stories too, some that are true!!! The events on Starfall islands is probably one of them, and theyre also something Silver got scolded for saying were real in history classes : (

As for sonics friends, a lot of knowledge on knuckles is obscure. They know he existed, but angel islands isolation kept a lot of details of his personal life secret. Amy and Tails are more well known, theyre both pretty big heroes in their own rights (i really love the idea of sonic and co. having fans in the future btw. Hermes is everything to me) tails is also very well know for his work in technology on the islands, and his work inspired a lot of interest in tech and chaos energy among mobians. Creams also a lesser known name, but shes got up there with amy and sonic as she got older.
