Mossbag: "There's the Conductor Romino, who we know nothing about... we don't even know what's creating the light found in the shining citadel" Team Cherry: Thank god.
I just saw a video where the guy in there says the exact premise of this video, somwthing beatiful, a poece of media that raptures you in the most beautiful way just for the end, the conlusion, to be: Amogus
In real life, no, but there's some sort of seal on the pitch-changing bell in the game that might have something to do with why it's able to do that. Because there is, you know, literal magic in the world.
I hadn't seen it in the comments so here's a suggestion about the pipes. Music is pretty key in this game: maybe they're organ pipes, allowing the gongs to fully resonate throughout pharloom
good point, knowing cones have propeties no other shapes have when exposed to sound waves, i asked 'when vibrating, does a cone does something special no other shapes do?' to chatGPT if you are interested (69th like btw)
Now i understand why Team cherry has been so quiet, they're afraid of this man. Making 40-50 mins of incredibly specific speculation out of literal trailers.
Honestly i cried hearing this line. Why does she say this? Why does team cherry give a character such in depth mental distraught? Truly shaken by such a line
6:29, I believe this downward progression of notes is called the dies irae, it's a little thing artists use to make their music creepier. You can find this in several songs, such as: Pink soldiers (squid game song) and that one scene where Mufasa dies in the lion king. Also, Vox made an entire video on this topic too Edit: I just realised that 1 minute later he says it's the dies irae and reveals it to the public I am such an idiot
Has anyone considered that the "desert area" might be the top of the volcanic area - the dust is volcanic ash. Notably volcanic ash is very bad for insects (if i remember correctly it affects their cuticles/pores). Hence why the bugs in the area appear to be in helmets. We even see a dead bug covered in ash. If you are correct about the last judges location it has a thematic tie to his fire abilities.
This is actually a good theory. I'm surprised I didn't think of that. Plus this actually works well with his map, which has the vault right above fob. Plus this goes along with my theory which is that this "desert" is the vault. And this volcanic ash or cinder is due to the last judge burning bugs to ash
@@Cywastaken I mean “wearing masks because there’s particles in the air” doesn’t necessarily need to be a reference to a very specific phenomenon for insects and volcanic ash. People wear masks like that all the time, just look at how people in east Asia react to Yellow Dust
You had me watch and entire 26 minutes of a well thought out and expertly made video just to throw and amongus joke at the end? Well played mossbag, well played.
12:04 I believe this sign is for the Bell Heap City, considering the shape of the buildings depicted on it, and also the use of musical note motifs around it, similar to the sign seen at 15:13
I can't wait for this video to age another four years for silksong to actually release, in the meantime i expect mossbag to finally post a 12 hour analysis video on Steel Ass Jim and how he connects to the world of silksong.
@@faether1429 If Team Cherry felt confident enough to give us a solid timeframe, I'm going to choose to take them at their word for this. If they fail to release the game by the deadline they set, I'm not going to be mad. Making a game is a long and difficult process. That being said. I will be dissapointed.
to me, lace seems like the hornet of silksong. When hornet first meets the knight, she fights them to see if they're worthy of being the vessel to save hollownest. It seems that lace is trying to do a similar thing, maybe more extreme- they both allude to the dangers further into the kingdom that we do not know about when we meet them. However, lace may also just want to kill us for whatever motives
According to your idea of the map, the lower down you go, the more natural resources there are. Could the pipes be used to transport resources? Or perhaps he elevator shafts
My favourite part is when Lace said the iconic line, "BLANK CELL (Wanderers/LACE_MEET_3)" and then BLANK CELL (Wanderers/LACE_MEET_3)ed all over everyone
I was looking for someone in the comments to mention the bell notes but I didn't think about this, that's pretty clever! I did notice though that those notes are actually a motif from hollow knight, E F# G E is the main melodic motif of the dirtmouth theme and it appears transposed into different keys many many times across the soundtrack such as the greenpath theme, the broken vessel fight theme, the hollow knight fight theme, and the abyss ascension theme
I just wanted to thank you again for the high quality videos, subtitles are so appreciated from your hearing impaired fans and your videos are always enjoyable, thank you!
Ok so what if the reason silksong is taking so long is because team cherry is constantly editing the game so that all of Mossbag's speculation and theories are right
We've seen that the white flowers of the Grey Mourner have some sort of power related to, or similar to, that of the Pale King, and they seem to be able to counteract the Void in the godhome ending after giving one to the Godseeker. If the white flowers all over Pharloom are the same kind of flower, maybe they're the reason for the civilization of Pharloom existing, granting sentience to the bugs the same way the Pale King's presence did. If the theory that those massive pipes are containing the roots of the original plant that makes these flowers, it could be a way for someone to potentially suppress their power or growth, keeping the bugs not totally mindless, but still subservient. It could also be the exact opposite, though. Maybe the pipes are extracting something from this original plant and spreading it to expand the kingdom.
I love the sheer amount of wild speculation that we're desperately grabbing at. that sounded derogatory, but I'm actually impressed how excited the community is for Silksong =D
I really appreciate the fact that mossbag points out the fact that it's all Maine, it's a detail most people don't notice but I can't wait to explore the depths of Bangor to the heights of the Bucksport.
What if the Nightmare heart is the “hidden plant higher being”, the heart looks kinda like a petal but more importantly the arteries look kinda like roots. There’s also the poem mentioning “heart” and “servitude” and in the next line “wake”. The poem actually makes a bit of sense if you assume the Nightmare heart, or some version, is being hidden. A reason for Grimm wanting white flowers is to maybe fight off the shade lord, maybe the flower is a “waking world” version/embodiment of the Nightmare heart. Also the first menu for silksong had red, rising sparks eerily close to the Grimm Troupe menu in HK. Just a fun thought for fellow Grimm fans
@@AC-sj5rj That’s very true and I’m not completely convinced about this myself, but who knows with this little info on silksong. Plus I think the will probably be a reference to Grimm in silksong just because of how popular he is in the community, but 8t is unlikely to be this big of a cameo
It seems pretty unlikely, given what we know about the Nightmare Heart. From what we saw in HK, the primary domain of the Nightmare Heart is the Nightmare Realm of the Dream World, which split from the rest of the Dream World in times past. While we know it's possible for a higher being in the Dream World to have dominion over a terrestrial realm as well (a la the Radiance's dominion over Hallownest via the plague), there's nothing to suggest the Nightmare Heart operates in like manner. Instead, we see the Nightmare Heart dipping its metaphorical toes in various kingdoms before leaving without a trace. Also, given the Heart seems to use masks to control its subjects, there's no reason for it to just randomly use silk in another area.
Hey Mossbag don’t know if you’re reading this but congratulation on reaching your Kickstarter goal for titan shell I’m super excited to be back this project and I’m glad that you reach your goal.

That’s all I have to say have a nice day stay safe and enjoy life.
The bugs Lace seems to "control" look somehwat like the ones we find around the White Palace and Monarch Wings, indicating she might be in service to a Wyrm / Pale Being.
@@serraramayfield9230 Well, Bardoons dialogue implies that Wyrms are extinct but doesn't confirm it (even though I think that was meant, too), but since Silksong is currently expected to be a Prequel Wyrms might still be around.
this is some pretty thorough work of the environment of silksong from the small amount of content we have right now! other than that the description is sending me
I have a speculation that the bugs in Pharloom hate the Weavers that’s why you have to fight most npcs like the bell beast Also, like HK when we first meet Hornet we have to fight her then she becomes our ally.
No I don't think its weavers specifically. Its likely been in contact with cursed bugs of the citadel and is simply protecting itself. Plus now it has to live in tunnels of bells due to them.
I wonder if the people who were "escorting" Hornet got scattered across the land of pharloom as they fell, and the player finds them as a side quest, just because we don't see them near the cage where hornet landed, and if they were never seen again, it seems like a missed oportunity
i feel at the top of everything we gnn find some sort of key to open doors at the starting area to face the final bosses. Maybe the game wont stop even when u finish climbing and defeating last boss maybe a twist or something.
19:24 -- Shown during his statement, what looks like water is seen pouring from some platforms. Might not be the source of Greymore's/"Barnacle Area"'s water/rain, but still.
Great video, but I think you got 2 things wrong: 1. Sherma is not the one opening the gate, in the edge magazine they said that it was hornet who opened it by pressing a lever (we can see the lever above hornet in the clip) , and Sherma being unaware thinks it was his melodic tribute that opened the door. 2.The desert area seems to be either above or below the coral forest , based on the exact same type of pilliar we can see in both places as well as the same enemy type (the shielded guy with similiar design to the vault keepers)
Yo hot theory coming in: those giant roots might all the roots of a tree or large plant, that you later have to ascend outside the underground to get to the citadel. Would be a cool, provacative way of hinting at other worlds outside farloom and hallownest, just like how you are barely blocked off from entering the wastes in the howling cliffs by wind.
The internet's probably going to explode when it drops so it might be best to enjoy the heck out of it as soon as you can before everywhere is flooding with spoilers
every time moss exposes content from the trailer, team cherry has to rework the game to make things different we MUST SACRIFICE HIM TO TEAM CHERRY TO APPEASE THEM SO THAT THEY MAY RELEASE SILK SONG
Team Cherry: ready to release Silksong mossbag: makes entire video about what the map could look like Team Cherry: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN *Silksong release pushed back even further to update the map*
Considering she's a far more fleshed out character than Ghost, Hornet's ascent upward may symbolically be her dealing with rediscovering herself after whatever happened to Hallownest.
I recommend this channel to others by telling them that each video is simply 20-80 minutes of a being made of pure, crystallized bathos squeezing many litres of blood from a modestly-sized turnip.
10:49 maybe the monster was suspended by silk in the deep docks, and if you cut the silk, it falls down to the bone forest, or maybe if the bone forest is above the deep docks (forgive me for not remembering the positions) a bell toll raises the beast to the bone forest?
6:00 *"Meaning that Hornet still doesn't have access to public transportation"* What a shame, and for such a good, tax paying citizen like herself too.
maybe the huge elevator that seems to go to the citadel collapses when it's first used, causing the Hornet to fall into the base of the citadel...? Maybe that's the way the player gets to the base of the citadel, or somewhere else below
My best bet as far as plot goes is that Silksong's big bad controls bugs through silk, like puppets. This silk is harvested from Weavers, which is why the Weavers had to leave Farloom, why Hornet was captured, and why Lace attempts to kill Hornet (who intends to go to the capital, right into the enemy's hands). I'm not sure how the "song" part plays (hah) in, maybe specific songs affect bugs in different ways?
I feel like we haven’t seen all the new areas in Silksong yet. I believe we’ve seen about 12 main areas so far (although I could be wrong): - Moss Grotto (clover sub-area) - Deep Docks - Forest of Bones - Greymoor - The Marrow - Gilded City - Shining Citadel (clock tower sub-area) - Coral Forest - Barnacle Area - Forest Area - Desert Area - Swamp Area (temple sub-area) Hollow Knight had 16 main areas if you count The White Palace and The Abyss, and if Silksong is supposedly bigger than Hollow Knight, there could still be a few areas that haven’t been shown yet. I’d love to see a snow/ice-themed area, which could be near the top of the map and be the source of the water we see in areas like the Coral Forest, Barnacle Area and Moss Grotto.
7:05 sounds like the classic leitmotif, Dies Irae. It tends to be used to signify death or doom. It's a melody that everyone's heard, but no one knows the name of.
The big bad could also be using the silk as a type of puppet strings and the silk pointing up could be a cut off with the silk retreating back towards big bad
I don't think you fight shakra, rather she guards the entrance to an area, maybe a shop area of sorts, and you have to have a certain item to be let through, kind of like a combination between the elder baldur in greenpath, and the knight statue blocking the city of tears
21:13 reminds me a lot of the Grimm Troupe, all of the spheres going around Farloom could possibly be the strange structure hidden in Grimme tent, or that structure could be some type of map of the citadel
6:25 those notes are part of Hollow Knight's main theme (most notably how it plays in the second phase of The Hollow Knight fight) (well the original motif plays F# at the end but in the Hollow Knight fight it repeats the E like it does in silksong here) this is interesting because that phrase loops itself in the final hollow knight fight to symbolize the repeated nature of the cycle maybe it's foreshadowing of another repeating pattern in Pharloom or I'm looking too deep into it nice reference to the first game at least
This madman probably spent countless hours of his life making this video, searching for clues in each and every frame of Silksong footage we have and trying to connect everything to everything else and completely losing his last bits of sanity... just to set up an Among Us joke.

this is some pretty thorough work of the environment of silksong from the small amount of content we have right now!
other than that the description is sending me
I have a speculation that the bugs in Pharloom hate the Weavers that’s why you have to fight most npcs like the bell beast Also, like HK when we first meet Hornet we have to fight her then she becomes our ally.
No I don't think its weavers specifically. Its likely been in contact with cursed bugs of the citadel and is simply protecting itself.
Plus now it has to live in tunnels of bells due to them.
I wonder if the people who were "escorting" Hornet got scattered across the land of pharloom as they fell, and the player finds them as a side quest, just because we don't see them near the cage where hornet landed, and if they were never seen again, it seems like a missed oportunity
I used to regret sacrificing Mossbag but after reading the description no longer.
This was my favourite end to a video of yours, thank you, Mr. Bag.
i feel at the top of everything we gnn find some sort of key to open doors at the starting area to face the final bosses. Maybe the game wont stop even when u finish climbing and defeating last boss maybe a twist or something.
19:24 -- Shown during his statement, what looks like water is seen pouring from some platforms. Might not be the source of Greymore's/"Barnacle Area"'s water/rain, but still.
Great video, but I think you got 2 things wrong:
1. Sherma is not the one opening the gate, in the edge magazine they said that it was hornet who opened it by pressing a lever (we can see the lever above hornet in the clip) , and Sherma being unaware thinks it was his melodic tribute that opened the door.
2.The desert area seems to be either above or below the coral forest , based on the exact same type of pilliar we can see in both places as well as the same enemy type (the shielded guy with similiar design to the vault keepers)
As an active resident of Maine I can confirm that greymoor is right down the street
Next video: Developing a copy of Silksong to see if it's fun
I dunno mossbag, I'm not sure we can trust that map. I could have sworn it vented in admin.
Yo hot theory coming in: those giant roots might all the roots of a tree or large plant, that you later have to ascend outside the underground to get to the citadel. Would be a cool, provacative way of hinting at other worlds outside farloom and hallownest, just like how you are barely blocked off from entering the wastes in the howling cliffs by wind.
1:39 "Pear shaped" EXCUSE ME what kind of pears you been eating? Violin pears? Sounds dope I want some
Pharloomian Pears, your welcome👍
love hornet's goofy crawl at 8:20
God fucking dammit
He amogused us
HE PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE
I’m hyped for silk song but knowing me I’ll probably buy it day one and play a month later 💀
I'll probably buy it a month before and play it day one.
The internet's probably going to explode when it drops so it might be best to enjoy the heck out of it as soon as you can before everywhere is flooding with spoilers
@@scarabdust I'm going to have to stop going on the internet while I play the game
@@scarabdust yeah, literally the same thing happened with zelda tears of the kingdom
Its only been 2 weeks, 2 freaking weeks.
every time moss exposes content from the trailer, team cherry has to rework the game to make things different
we MUST SACRIFICE HIM TO TEAM CHERRY TO APPEASE THEM SO THAT THEY MAY RELEASE SILK SONG
9:33 my favorite part of the game is when lace said "its BLANK CELLIN' Time" and wandered/laced all over the _meet_3
24:41 I LOVE this theory! It's an explanation for both the "pipes" and the final boss of the game! Lovely
9:19 R.I.P knight, you will be missed
4:17 this game would be quite short if the needle didn't miss hornet's head
They predicted the Trump assassination attempt
Team Cherry: ready to release Silksong
mossbag: makes entire video about what the map could look like
Team Cherry: WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN
*Silksong release pushed back even further to update the map*
Considering she's a far more fleshed out character than Ghost, Hornet's ascent upward may symbolically be her dealing with rediscovering herself after whatever happened to Hallownest.
I recommend this channel to others by telling them that each video is simply 20-80 minutes of a being made of pure, crystallized bathos squeezing many litres of blood from a modestly-sized turnip.
TeamCherry please release the game to save this man from madness
Too late!
The di es ire/the tune that plays after a boss is defeated is kinda like the one that plays in hk after a boss that plays before the cage spikes open
Team Cherry: “You’re trying to get me to reveal something. It won’t work.”
10:49 maybe the monster was suspended by silk in the deep docks, and if you cut the silk, it falls down to the bone forest, or maybe if the bone forest is above the deep docks (forgive me for not remembering the positions) a bell toll raises the beast to the bone forest?
6:00
*"Meaning that Hornet still doesn't have access to public transportation"*
What a shame, and for such a good, tax paying citizen like herself too.
that man made a 26 minute video just to end it with a amogus meme
A true Legend
maybe the huge elevator that seems to go to the citadel collapses when it's first used, causing the Hornet to fall into the base of the citadel...? Maybe that's the way the player gets to the base of the citadel, or somewhere
else below
mossbag out here bouta know all the lore before the game is even out
puffymantella from reddit
@@jellyno1946 perhaps, or perhaps not
@@puffymantella46 the one who is everywhere and is now on youtube too
@@jellyno1946 always has been, you may also find me on a few other platforms as well
Bruh how did I not notice the dies irae reference omg. Im getting Goosebumps
My best bet as far as plot goes is that Silksong's big bad controls bugs through silk, like puppets. This silk is harvested from Weavers, which is why the Weavers had to leave Farloom, why Hornet was captured, and why Lace attempts to kill Hornet (who intends to go to the capital, right into the enemy's hands). I'm not sure how the "song" part plays (hah) in, maybe specific songs affect bugs in different ways?
I feel like we haven’t seen all the new areas in Silksong yet. I believe we’ve seen about 12 main areas so far (although I could be wrong):
- Moss Grotto (clover sub-area)
- Deep Docks
- Forest of Bones
- Greymoor
- The Marrow
- Gilded City
- Shining Citadel (clock tower sub-area)
- Coral Forest
- Barnacle Area
- Forest Area
- Desert Area
- Swamp Area (temple sub-area)
Hollow Knight had 16 main areas if you count The White Palace and The Abyss, and if Silksong is supposedly bigger than Hollow Knight, there could still be a few areas that haven’t been shown yet.
I’d love to see a snow/ice-themed area, which could be near the top of the map and be the source of the water we see in areas like the Coral Forest, Barnacle Area and Moss Grotto.
11:44 is that just me, or do those look awfully like musical notes?
Clearly music (silk*song*) will be a large part of this game.
Me: Silksong is my favorite game!
Team cherry: the game is not even out yet…
Me: I don’t care
7:05 sounds like the classic leitmotif, Dies Irae. It tends to be used to signify death or doom. It's a melody that everyone's heard, but no one knows the name of.
of course, it gets mentioned in the video right after. That's what I get for abruptly pausing the video to comment about it.
The big bad could also be using the silk as a type of puppet strings and the silk pointing up could be a cut off with the silk retreating back towards big bad
I don't think you fight shakra, rather she guards the entrance to an area, maybe a shop area of sorts, and you have to have a certain item to be let through, kind of like a combination between the elder baldur in greenpath, and the knight statue blocking the city of tears
40 seconds in and we get a reference to the infamous zootopia fan comic, thanks mossbag 👍
The ending violently slaughtered me. I've been murdered. I'm dead. Pay for my funeral.
When the entirety of the video was just an elaborate among us joke.
21:13 reminds me a lot of the Grimm Troupe, all of the spheres going around Farloom could possibly be the strange structure hidden in Grimme tent, or that structure could be some type of map of the citadel
I've been laughing ever since the video ended. You're brilliant.
Woah.. that map is so detailed
whenever i hear sherma's name i just think of jerma
all that buildup for a fkin amongus joke
I love it
6:25
those notes are part of Hollow Knight's main theme (most notably how it plays in the second phase of The Hollow Knight fight) (well the original motif plays F# at the end but in the Hollow Knight fight it repeats the E like it does in silksong here)
this is interesting because that phrase loops itself in the final hollow knight fight to symbolize the repeated nature of the cycle
maybe it's foreshadowing of another repeating pattern in Pharloom
or I'm looking too deep into it
nice reference to the first game at least
*me thinking the intro will be normal.*
*the intro: (random baby coughing or something)*
By introducing I meant when the words mossbag appeared 😂 0:02
I know plenty of people have done it already haha but I just beat Pantheon of Hallownest today, and I couldn't be happier
Congrats!
GORB IS INTRIGUED BY THE IDEA OF YOU HAVING THIS ABILITY TO FIND LORE SO EASILY, SURLY YOU HAVE A TRICK UP YOUR SLEVE!
8:19 I never realized hornet has a spider-like dodge animation, that is awesome looking
This madman probably spent countless hours of his life making this video, searching for clues in each and every frame of Silksong footage we have and trying to connect everything to everything else and completely losing his last bits of sanity... just to set up an Among Us joke.
Bravo, mossbag. You somehow made me respect you even more.
