I saw this interaction a couple days ago on Twitter and it didn't leave my mind until I drew this. This is literally these two

the king

so I was doing a run through Eden recently, and taking screenshots whenever I could, when I noticed something during the flight to orbit.

NOTE THAT BEYOND THE CUT HAS SPOLIERS FOR THE FLIGHT TO ORBIT!

Look familiar to anyone?

Thats because it is the exact same as what is on the final floor of the vault of knowledge.

I thought it was interesting, as we only can see this after the light whale smashed the fallen debris, and we head into the eye of the storm. With everything happening so quickly I wanted to make sure that I was right on the timing, and this happens to be the last part of the Eden castle we can actually see, as afterwards we he'd into the first section of orbit, with all of the spirits we have awakened.

I think its an interesting thing to think about because, all of the "shrines" we see in these photos, can be found in the different temples where we give the elder spirits light.

I just thought it was a neat comparison, and something to add onto the piles and piles of headcanons and theories I have on this game.

The Elders

I don't know who's drawing motivation I stole last night, but I drew all the elders and even a king resh based off of the concept art.

I love how the whole cotl fandom is going insane over the new 2 embers trailer but it’s literally just

Anyways I will currently be connecting red string to photographs in a secret room like a conspiracy theorist until the next one comes out

[allfor-thegames]

you're telling me that nicky hemmick put the life he wanted and deserved on hold, flew across the world, went through the process of becoming the legal guardian of teenage twins with a laundry list of trauma each, worked two jobs, taught them german, supported them through the loss of a parent and court-mandated anti-psychotics/anti-depressants, joined a collegiate exy team that harbored kevin day and all the backlash that came from it, let andrew take two kids with mafia ties into their little group, survived baltimore and all that came with it, and then won the ncaa championship?

all with an elle woods "what, like it's hard?" attitude?

Hey! Back from my little box!

I came back with a little treat about my fav silly barely in lore character resh!

Thought making of a base of how I think resh's development would be like

Early childhood: adopted by dawn elder, he was in pretty good hands, and was well loved. he often draws and collects pretty rocks in his spare time(finding dark stone in the process)

Baby 1st trauma: resh is socially awkward and very strange to an outsiders perspective, this got him bullied badly. So much so he lost an eye when being cornered, he finds himself more distrustful and careful , this also made home selectively mute

Prince: after a long and agonizing goal to achieve all the elements(colored light idk) and fulfill the prophecy, he returns with the title monarch, at the cost of his childhood and innocents

He copes with ignoring his emotional side and subjects himself to using light and dark stone and it's uses for the kingdom

Prime: resh has gained a liking to crafting/engineering and isolated himself with crafting machines, and fully covered his face to hide any forms of emotions and his appearance (he hates how he looks, and acts thanks to his childhood trauma) he keeps his reputation pretty well at this stage

Imprisonment: after losing his kingdom, people, family and his own light all because of his pride and greed, his own guilt acts as a constant chain that keeps him from reconnecting to orbit, pretty much rotting away ever so slowly

(au) rebirth: not really a interpretation of character but more of an idea on what could happen, he would finally let go near to his weakest moments and be reborn in a similar maner to present day sky kids, thought completely forgotten his past identity and simply wanders around the realm, meeting sky kids alike finally belonging in a group that could understand him (despite literally being a living fossil fuel in appearance and age lol)

That's abouty rough idea really, ask some questions I will answer eventually!

This old Resh cutscene is so silly I can't stop laughing. Resh really saw a random sky kid passed out on the floor, saw their candle, went "Are you going to eat that?", did not wait for an answer, and just fucked off into the distance. To say I am cackling is not to say anything- and the distant thunder just makes it all so serious and for what JHDGJEDGHGHED

Additional screens:

You can see that his cutscene was only at the testing stages and very unfinished, probably from the time TGC was still figuring out the story, considering how clanky and minimal the animation as well as resh's model is

I mean look at this shit. They look so stupid. PUT THOSE GRIPPERS AWAY!!!

Anyway, this is the last bit of hacked content for now, until our lords and saviors Sky hackers will feed us lore crumbs hidden in those sweet sweet files again.

They are bad influences to each other
