It hadnt occured to me that pearls are the perfect form of data storage for a civilization that uses biological organisms for their tech. Its renewable, mass producable, and portable.
Although the only problem being that they probably have a strict limit on the data they can have in them. Like the pearls you can get read by iterators are just small text files if you think about it so they probably can't accomplish much. Also we probably don't actually know how renewable those are so there's that too lol
The snake-like structures in shoreline are most likely support beams, one of the white pearl texts reads "This is a blueprint for a support beam used for the construction of early industrial areas. You can see these in use not too far from here.", not sure what else Moon could be talking about with "You can see these in use not too far from here"

Number 2: I work in highrise construction. To counteract building settlement over time from being initially poured concrete to fully cured concrete, the building will move and sag in certain spots, known as deflection. On a tall building the floor is setout in a direction to counteract this sagging so that it eventually sags into place directly ontop in a straight line. It could be that the ancients, because they were building well above the clouds, which would be 300m above sea level at least + 500m ontop for a structure going up, they just sagged into different spots over time. It is more likely that they were built wrongly at this height and it has become more obvious over the years. Sagging will show as a leaning structure, the way these are in and out is more likely bad construction engineering.
There's plenty of evidence that the Ancients built this entire structure and everything in it with only the vaguest interest in actually residing there long term-the whole complex of Rain World is simply designed to process Void Liquid for power (which is apparently all they needed for power) and to use that power to achieve enlightenment (Since the VL allowed them to reach a formless state but yet did not guarantee complete freedom if you were attached). Indeed, the material world by their own ideology didn't matter, and concentrating on it was considered something you shouldn't do-attachment to the material world and all that. By which is why they left all the management (of food, housing, and industry) to robots. And the Iterators didn't care about making buildings last that would shortly be unoccupied for all eternity, the same way they abandoned the idea of ascending critters and focused only on themselves.
The red boxes as you call them in the pebbles slideshow might be different "marks". Pebbles gives you the mark of communication which allows you to understand the funny language, but who says there cant be more marks that do different stuff. One symbol is lit green cause it might be representing the mark of communication, and its selected to be readied up to be put into sugcat or smth. Just speculation tho ofc, could be pebbles ordering KFC for later and the different symbols being different menu items. You never know
The first pebbles image is instructions to ascend, entering subterranean(implied by the subway map) and having to obtain karma 10 (implied by the karma gate symbol, the two karma gate symbol with >) telling you that only creatures with karma 10 can ascend
i always thought that the ancient cities looked almost 3d printed... ancients loved their halfway robotic organisms and when i look at the city i thought it was something chrysalis or hive-like. i feel like that uneven stacking is maybe a result of an organic building material and some sort of purposed organism that would make them. maybe even it relates to the structures seen in shoreline? obviously im just speculating but that's what my initial thought was. cool video thumbs up
Oh I hate how much I’m liking this theory. I just have this absolutely cursed imagery in my head of those shoreline snake structures boring into rock with those drill snouts like some kind of nightmare robotic bobbit worm. With them then slithering over or even THROUGH an iterator can before defecating a prefab room segment out their back end atop the iterator’s back. Then returning back to their quarry to do it again… slowly layering an entire city that way.
My favorite part is when rain world says "its raining time" and proceeded to rain everyone Unironically though the rain is one of my favorite things in rain world
The "serpents" near moon seem more like resource collectors or mining segments to me, they have spiraled prongs which could have been used for drilling, I think these are attached to moons super structure instead of being their own automatons, we all know about how the iterators had to provide for their cities, this could've been how they collected resources for them, they could have displaced and sucked up different materials to be processed in some part of the structure.
my theory was that they were the severed water pumps that cooled lttm. I think this because they come from the water and the 4 "eyes" remind me of turbine pumps.
My theory was that they were some kind of manipulators that Moon had lost control of or something, organizing or collecting products of the farms and subterranean so they can be transported up to the city.
I'm so glad someone is finally talking about the cabinet beasts. When I first played and saw these things I was so fucking scare of what they were. I thought that they were like the fetuses of some monolitic creature I'd have to face or somthing.
Personally, a few of these remind me of the little floating thing that will follow the artificer in downpour Edit: i saw another comment saying that the red boxes might be marks like the mark of communication, which leads me to speculate that the floaty artificer thingy might also be a mark of some kind.
Let me try to think of some Rain World mysteries to ask about: 1) What do we know about the tree where the Survivor and the Monk lived with their family? 2) What can we learn about the ancients from the rare graffiti marks found around the world? 3) What were they manufacturing in the Industrial Complex, or growing in the Farm Arrays? 4) What is the history behind the Shaded Citadel? Was it a city where the ancients lived before building Pebbles and casting it into permanent shadow? 5) Did the Survivor recognize any of the slugcats he met after ascending, implying that his family ascended without him after being separated? This might be hinted at by the dream where several slugcat ghosts are watching him.
1. We don't know much about the tree, but I feel like it might be more metaphorical than a literal location, symbolizing the slugcats' old home 2. There isn't enough information about who made the graffiti either, although its likely that it was made by some of the last ancients during a pilgrimage to the void sea, however, there is graffiti of the rot present in outskirts, and the lore suggests that the ancients were long gone by the time pebbles created the rot, perhaps some are still out there? 3. Industrial complex was a factory that produced ritualistic bone masks, most likely the ones worn by vultures, and farm arrays was an automated agricultural site that produced nectar (a beverage we know very little about) and possibly other food items 4. The shaded citadel was a religious temple before the five pebbles structure was built above it, despite the wishes of its inhabitants. 5. It's kinda implied that survivor's family ascended before them, because of some of the cutscenes.
@@yakiyuki8924 2. I think it would make more since if scavengers were the ones who made some of the graffiti like the rot one and such. 3. I'm pretty sure the theory that the masks were for the vultures was debunked since in one of the pearls, moon talks about a factory called "Side House" which when described, fits Industrial Complex. In that same pearl, moon mentions how the masks were used to abate the self and that they were "excessively ornate and lavish" and some were probably very big as moon says some masks made it difficult for some persons to pass through narrow doorways. All those descriptions of the masks don't seem to fit the vulture masks so they're most likely the masks worn by the ancients (moon also mentions the masks are all gone with their owners. And when you bring her a vulture mask, she doesn't recognize it) 5. I don't think it would be possible that survivor's/monk's family ascended before them. There are plenty of theories about what exactly happened when the slugcats ascend but what I believe is that before they fully ascend and stop existing, they dream about they're most wanted desire or wishes. Just like how survivor wanted to find their family, monk wanted to find survivor, and hunter is a bit of a mystery but I think they wanted their disease to be cured and to reunite with their creator? That's my theory though.
To explain the Ancient City layers, perhaps they appear so structurally "drab" due to the focus of dying permanently that the Ancients had around this time. The billionaires and political figures among them were most certainly focused on endorsing ways to die without becoming those weird echoes as oppose to construction, and thus material budgets would plummet.
really good video. just one thing you missed - on the top of FP, in the last screen before you go inside, you can actually see the bottom of one of the ancients' tower blocks. you can see the floors on exactly the same plane as slugcat can see them. could help with figuring out the size of the ancients, from the looks of that, and how the background buildings are arranged in their wonky fashion, i doubt theyre any bigger than a scavenger
I always assumed the stuff at Shoreline was the wreckage of Moon. The one at 7:05 looks like it forms a ring, kinda reminds me of the destroyed support rings from the Space Elevator in Halo. As for the snaking ones, they may have been warped during the collapse, you also see similar snaking pipe structures during the climb up The Leg.
i really do wonder if the ancient's language is supposed to be understood, i'm thinking about this now with the knowledge about tunic's own languages (there are in fact multiple languages in it, not just the alphabet)
I certainly think it's a logographic (each symbol is a word/concept) language! Here's my reasoning/examples 1. Stolen Enlightenment achievement symbol, a mix of the karma 4 and monk symbols. We've inferred that karma 4 is gluttony based on the murals in Five Pebbles. So Stolen Enlightenment, where you eat one of Moon's neurons, is represented with a symbol group of "gluttonous/greedy monk" 2. The Scholar achievement, two symbols grouped together. One symbol is seen alone in the Wanderer achievement. So the Scholar symbols could be "wanderer/curious knowledge" 3. The Scavenger graffiti in Moon's chamber is multiple symbols. On the left is part of the Chieftain and Friend achievement symbols, it could mean "companion/non-violent". The symbols on the right look almost exactly like the Scholar achievement, so it could be the Scavs marked Moon as "friendly scholar"
@@arando689 so karma symbols would represent concepts and together they form larger concepts that represents actual things or groups of things in the world, that's an interesting language building for sure
Considering the concept of purposed organisms, imagine if scorn and rain world are just different moments of the same story getting increasingly weird and disturbing
The disorderly construction of the buildings on top of the iteratiors may be jagged bacause their construction was rushed, if they went up there to avoid the rain they most likely wanted to get up there as fast as possible
I think the arms in shoreline are from Moon's structure before it was destroyed by pebbles, they probably supported some outside part of her facility given how large Pebble's is. The articulation would ensure flexibility under wind/rain along with some other benefits that come from having a raised structure.
My guess for the serpents would still be moon supports, but more like giant cables. Since Moon is on the coast, and built earlier, they might have used a different can design.
Hello Daszombes! That was an amazing video! I've learned more things with these curiosities! If I would suggest one more topic, It would be the Graffitis made by the ancients. You can find a gif showing every graffiti in the steam community of RW. There's some of them that's really interesting!
My thoughts on the red floors in the ancient cities is that those were the rooms of ascended ancients, pretty much just saying “hey these are unoccupied” Edit: also on an unrelated note, I think that the weird leviathan like things in the backgrounds of shoreline are newer versions of garbage worms, although they were abviously more efficient they are clearly less long-term.
Not going to lie I always thought the shoreline wormie background elements looked like legs. Like spider legs reaching out to try to lift a much larger main body up from where it collapsed and was covered in water. Always freaked myself out thinking about it.
Well the itorators needed massive amounts of water so maybe in number 3 the tube like structure was a way of transferring water to moon and when moon collapsed they collapsed with her. Also, they don’t appear to have been designed to move at all so I don’t really think that they are an older version of the leviathan
12:17 the boxes could represent all of the iterators on the continent and the green one represents five pebbles, the karma ten represents what goal they must complete, the triple affirmative. EDIT: oh that's what you said
8:26 my idea of these was that they are creatures that died and are trying to disappear, since some look like lizards or small animals. I don't know why I thought of this, I'm pretty sure now that the creatures can't disappear yet? they just cycle, right?
At some point while five pebbles it trying to type at you, he uses a different font or script. Idk I just found that interesting. He also repeats something he says to you slower at some point. And he is totally insulting slugcat’s intelligence the whole time.
Would probably be very bare bones. The Ancients were monks who were spurning the material world as much as they could to prepare for Ascension. The mishmash jenga towers are exactly the sort of thing people would build only to keep the rain off their heads with little thought for long term habitation.
Another thing adding to the "Liggy belongs to NSH" theory is, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Liggy appears more often in the Hunter's time.
That would furthermore support the theory, that Hunter's sickness is part of NSH essence(?) trying to ascend by using Hunter as it's vessel. He positioned his overseer near the void sea to see if his mission was successful. That, plus neuron sent to the Moon by NSH through hunter is also of green colour.
One Question - didya have "Find all coloured pearls and bring it to Moon" run? I't would be nice to see how it goes... Although you must be weray about "friendly" Scavs which may follow you to the shelter - and then your colored pearls become THEIR colored pearls
13:08 I like to think that the symbol talked about here means ‘person’ or something similar, like someone who is above simple animals, though this is mainly just because it looks like a mix of the third Karma symbol (likely meaning Companionship or something similar) and the lower half of the echo symbol (which is also shown in the clip of Pebbles showing big text). If this were somehow true, im guessing that arrow and symbol may be asking the slugcat to rise above being a simple animal so it can ascend.
Now we know (amongs other things) the symbol talked near the end was the gate symbol (its now on every pipe leading to gates with downpour,remix edition)
the weird shoreline snakes to me have always been either weird architecture for the sake of being weird or were either grabbing claws/ involved in some long-lost process carried out by the ocean. maybe they were involved in maintaining stuff in the ocean or around it but were either decommissioned early on being tied down with those metal strings or were destroyed by the rain and now languish in pieces
6:55 considering the 'single eye-mouth' bit, I think the giant robo-snakes are the _only_ thing she could be describing. After all, there's nothing else in the game with any kind of eye-mouth, as far as I know.
Number 3 at 5:57 If you look closely, you can see the jaw of a leviathan between the 2 "prongs". It's like the leviathan was a purposed organism that would fit in these huge mecanical snake and drive it like a vehicles (submarine?).
Gerard (???) is also seen in Drought, following Wanderer similar to Iggy as the slugcat adventures. As Wanderer was created/modified by Seven Red Suns, Gerard is most likely Sun’s overseer 👀
for the things near moon, snaky things, i like to think they’re basically what moon used to suck up water while their was more water between 5p and her, although now much of the water has been drained down making these large water sucking devices visible, they may have been able to bend with the currents of they water and have the wires to help hold them in place
I think that the weird "serpents" were possibly used to ark electricity between the two prongs attached to them. perhaps they were used for a long eroded power facility. sounds familiar to waterfront complex?
what if the cabinet beasts and void worms are connected? They look similar, the cabinet beasts store memories and the void worms are only visible when you eat memories via neuron fly, maybe they lead to the void sea because they remember the ancients desire to die
The "Worms" outside of moon are 100% support beams/remnants of Moon's leg(s). There's a pearl that gets her to talk about it and we can see them after (SAINT SPOILERS) 5P's can collapses in Saint's campaign nearby the remains of Shaded and around the Silent Construct
I think the green overseers are NSH's and i do think green is a hint at that. Moon had yellow overseers and yellow neuron flies, 5P has blueoverseers, and when his neuron flies are not rainbow, they are blue. Hunter carries a neuron fly from NSH to restore Moon, and its colour is green.
i have a theory about the 5p screen. basically, the 1 karma gate is a karma gate ingame. we can see that 5p can control them, as shown in gourmand. my theory is that wheel is to set requirements for karma gate, and gate symbol either refers to a singular gate, or (unlikely) a gate's status in karma req. the metro system might refer to a possible form of transport in 5p for his residents. the 4 symbols in the green grid may refer to the houses on pebbes. however, I believe that the green symbol in red grid refers to sliver of straw, as that would tie in with 5p's work. it is also rather clear that it refers to iterators, seeing ass the grid is grouped around a picture of a iterator can.
1:56 I assume those are samples of purposed organisms, which are used by the iterators, since they can easily genetically modify creatures and they will need to store all the data about genetic code of their purposed organisms to have samples of them and not store thousands of terrabytes of data inside them or pearls. I guess those creatures are dryed out, or simply conservated to keep their state fine for as long as possible. That explain why all of them are different.
13:15 - I don't know where I read this, but this letter is supposed to mean something like "friend" or "ally" I think you can see it for the achievement "the Friend", when you tame a lizard.
Personally I think the “serpents” are some kind of construction tool. This explains the articulation, as they would need to bend and be able to somewhat move around. The prongs could be used to grab and or cut material, maybe even function as drills?
7:21 it is also perhaps possible that the reason they are functionally dead is because when moon's complex collapsed it stopped producing power that was being supplied to them, causing them to lock up like that
The red boxes with symbols in them might be listing all the types of creatures and the green one might be a slugcat. Like, the symbols probably represent the names of creatures.
For the building thing, I think I have an idea on why they look like that. It really reminds me of slums. In a lot of cultures that live in these kind of towns each seperate building belongs to one family and they expand it to house new family members. That's what gives them that weird disorganized look. Maybe the ancients didn't exactly live by families, but they probably expanded their buildings to house new habitants and that gave them that look
The 4x4 arrays of symbols in 5P's slideshow match the "citizen ID" for ancients we see in downpour later used in one of the (not-karma but now ID badge) gates. I think this video came out before that, but it seems now like it's referring to an ancient specifically rather than an iterator specifically.
1. Likely meant to process and release living memory pearls. 2. Likely purposeful works of architecture, and individual ancients that have enough money to be able to pay for different floors to live on. 3. An old model of a purposed organism that was scrapped. 4. The spirits of ascended creatures purposefully manifest to assist in guiding the Slugcat. They only appear after eating a neuron (or as Saint) because Slugcats likely start glowing and gain a unique sense that allows them to see them. 5. Iggy comes back because of the cycle; Overseers are affected too! That also explains the number of Overseers that return to her when power is restored. 6. He is calculating the information on the Slugcat. The symbols are just meanings of things we never see in-game.
Huh heheheh, i never noticed that. I was always so confused going into 5 pebbles room just WAITING to get to understand him. That’s pretty funny he’s TRYING but you literally just don’t get it & he starts throwing all caps at u & insulting your brain size.
What if the subway map is literally a map of the void fluid transport systems in subterranean and they appear on five pebbles’s google slideshow as the destination slugcat has to go to to access the depths? Could also be a map of the filtration system with its winding pipes
4: the ancients used void fluid for things other than escaping the cycle. They also used it in the Iterators. This might have something to do with this, probably a better example, but just wanted to share.
i personally believe that the wormy things in shoreline may have been remote controlled drills used for excavating moon's site. maybe using their newly found void fluid somehow? i believe this because the props used to build the little mandible things are actually drills!
12:08 I think those may be ancients or somewhat, the highlighted one being Pebbles’ (main?) creator! Just a thought 🤔. Them being iterators is possible too because we barely know anything about this thing, and also symbols in boxes (which could be cans) so 🤷💫✨ Wonderful video! Neat hearing more on Cabinet Beasts 👀💖💕!! I guess they really are hard drives, but that makes for such an interesting concept if they’re iterator organs 👁👁💝. Fantastic work yet again ^^💫✨! Pearl video oo 👀
11:11 That picture dose not look difficult to interpret. there are two factions represented by the purple text above the red boxes and they are not happy with each other. Then you have the red boxes themself, those are clearly names and the highlighted in green is Five Pebbles himself so its safe to say that the other ones are also names for other Iterators. then you have the garbled mess that looks to be subway tunnels in the upper right part of the picture. I interpret that as his domain, as you can see that part has degraded quite a lot so its fair to say it is as damaged as the world he is responsible for. The red part in the bottom right looks to be a warning of some kind.
My biggest rain world mystery is: what the fuck is worm grass and what the fuck is it doing in farm arrays? They seem to have been here since before the self genocide of the ancients, as the Farm Arrays echo comments on the “grasses still swaying in the winds.” The presence of them seems to be intentional, or at least their being there was not something that the ancients cared about. One might think that worm grass is the source of the fabled “nectar” that is brought up in a few pearls, but if it is, then why is it carnivorous? The ancients can just genetically engineer anything, so why didn’t they genetically engineer the grass to not eat them? Was it to allow the plant to get nutrients through meat? If so, then why is one of the most common sources of meat in the game, green lizards, immune to it? The probable answer is that it’s an adaptation on the part of the green lizards, which actually makes sense, since the green lizards seem to have quite a number adaptations, (resistance to red lizard bites, low movement to conserve energy, immunity to centipede shocks, immunity to small rot cysts, etc.) however I have a different theory: green lizards are feral, and all of their adaptations are the result of domestication. Their taming difficulty being the lowest in the game, as well as them being relatively non-aggressive and loyal temperament lead me to believe that they were once the ancient’s pets. Their high aggression towards each other leads me to believe that they were used for something akin to dogfighting, and their aggression and resilience to other lizards might imply that they were used for protection against them. But now I’m going on an unrelated tangent, so back to worm grass: why the fuck do gooieducks repel worm grass? Moon says that they are some kind of spore deposit, but that doesn’t really say anything about why they repel worm grass. Maybe they were used as ways for the ancients to get across the worm grass safely, similarly to how we, and, if this theory is correct, possibly the ancients, use rain deer. There’s just one problem though: the Farm Arrays echo uses a strange adverb to describe the grass’s swaying: “gently”. Since “gently” doesn’t really describe eating everything that is too impatient to wait five eons for a rain deer to come to their side of the grass sea, this means that the worm grass didn’t want to eat the ancients. This makes no fucking sense, because if the worm grass was passive towards the ancients, then why the fuck do Rain Deer, the combination between a domesticated animal and a deer that lives on a fucking farm and serve a very specific purpose of letting you traverse the worm grass, exist. I’m sorry for this long-ass comment, I just needed to get this mystery off my chest.
maybe the serpents were the beams used for construction mentioned in one of the white pearls saying "This is a blueprint for a support beam used for the construction of early industrial areas. You can see these in use not too far from here." ???
A really intriguing thing I don't see people talk about a lot are those spires you can see in the background of that one room on The Wall. Specifically, the room where you can see a bunch of iterators. Besides them, the most notable thing in the background are these pointy spires with a bunch of things poking out of them. They appear to be even taller than iterators which is interesting also what's the song that plays around 10:35? i think it's from rain world but i can't remember the name

Looking at the red blocks in Pebbles's slideshow, the one to the right of the highlighted symbol (presumably Pebbles) looks similar to the stolen enlightenment achievement, which resembles and relates to Moon. Given their proximity it makes sense that they're side by side.

I wonder if a scavenger could hold a conversation if you got the mark of communication onto one
@@Stanfordscienceman Surprisingly this is answered by Downpour!
Dumbass still tries to use handsignals.
The first pebbles image is instructions to ascend, entering subterranean(implied by the subway map) and having to obtain karma 10 (implied by the karma gate symbol, the two karma gate symbol with >) telling you that only creatures with karma 10 can ascend
i always thought that the ancient cities looked almost 3d printed... ancients loved their halfway robotic organisms and when i look at the city i thought it was something chrysalis or hive-like. i feel like that uneven stacking is maybe a result of an organic building material and some sort of purposed organism that would make them. maybe even it relates to the structures seen in shoreline? obviously im just speculating but that's what my initial thought was. cool video thumbs up
Oh I hate how much I’m liking this theory. I just have this absolutely cursed imagery in my head of those shoreline snake structures boring into rock with those drill snouts like some kind of nightmare robotic bobbit worm. With them then slithering over or even THROUGH an iterator can before defecating a prefab room segment out their back end atop the iterator’s back. Then returning back to their quarry to do it again… slowly layering an entire city that way.
My favorite part is when rain world says "its raining time" and proceeded to rain everyone
Unironically though the rain is one of my favorite things in rain world
Hhhhhhhh ok bro, like, sigh, th-cam.com/video/ELmn1qcyZsM/w-d-xo.html
The "serpents" near moon seem more like resource collectors or mining segments to me, they have spiraled prongs which could have been used for drilling, I think these are attached to moons super structure instead of being their own automatons, we all know about how the iterators had to provide for their cities, this could've been how they collected resources for them, they could have displaced and sucked up different materials to be processed in some part of the structure.
my theory was that they were the severed water pumps that cooled lttm. I think this because they come from the water and the 4 "eyes" remind me of turbine pumps.
I think either they are pylons or supports for moon.
i originally thought this was the case, but i have seen a couple other really good ideas.
My theory was that they were some kind of manipulators that Moon had lost control of or something, organizing or collecting products of the farms and subterranean so they can be transported up to the city.
they might just be bits and pieces of debris from when moon collapsed
I'm so glad someone is finally talking about the cabinet beasts. When I first played and saw these things I was so fucking scare of what they were. I thought that they were like the fetuses of some monolitic creature I'd have to face or somthing.
That would be a cool af boss fight.
What if all the symbols in the red boxes represent different creatures, and the lit up green one represents a slugcat? Idk just a thought
Personally, a few of these remind me of the little floating thing that will follow the artificer in downpour
Edit: i saw another comment saying that the red boxes might be marks like the mark of communication, which leads me to speculate that the floaty artificer thingy might also be a mark of some kind.
@@vanillawaffle7303 if the red boxes are marks of communication, then he *was* looking up how to give them to slugcats!

Let me try to think of some Rain World mysteries to ask about:
1) What do we know about the tree where the Survivor and the Monk lived with their family?
2) What can we learn about the ancients from the rare graffiti marks found around the world?
3) What were they manufacturing in the Industrial Complex, or growing in the Farm Arrays?
4) What is the history behind the Shaded Citadel? Was it a city where the ancients lived before building Pebbles and casting it into permanent shadow?
5) Did the Survivor recognize any of the slugcats he met after ascending, implying that his family ascended without him after being separated? This might be hinted at by the dream where several slugcat ghosts are watching him.
The pearls reveal that the farm arrays produce nectar, which seems to be an alcoholic drink or something similar.
@@SunShine214_2and they also reveal that industrial used to make masks
1. We don't know much about the tree, but I feel like it might be more metaphorical than a literal location, symbolizing the slugcats' old home
2. There isn't enough information about who made the graffiti either, although its likely that it was made by some of the last ancients during a pilgrimage to the void sea, however, there is graffiti of the rot present in outskirts, and the lore suggests that the ancients were long gone by the time pebbles created the rot, perhaps some are still out there?
3. Industrial complex was a factory that produced ritualistic bone masks, most likely the ones worn by vultures, and farm arrays was an automated agricultural site that produced nectar (a beverage we know very little about) and possibly other food items
4. The shaded citadel was a religious temple before the five pebbles structure was built above it, despite the wishes of its inhabitants.
5. It's kinda implied that survivor's family ascended before them, because of some of the cutscenes.
@@yakiyuki8924
2. I think it would make more since if scavengers were the ones who made some of the graffiti like the rot one and such.
3. I'm pretty sure the theory that the masks were for the vultures was debunked since in one of the pearls, moon talks about a factory called "Side House" which when described, fits Industrial Complex. In that same pearl, moon mentions how the masks were used to abate the self and that they were "excessively ornate and lavish" and some were probably very big as moon says some masks made it difficult for some persons to pass through narrow doorways. All those descriptions of the masks don't seem to fit the vulture masks so they're most likely the masks worn by the ancients (moon also mentions the masks are all gone with their owners. And when you bring her a vulture mask, she doesn't recognize it)
5. I don't think it would be possible that survivor's/monk's family ascended before them. There are plenty of theories about what exactly happened when the slugcats ascend but what I believe is that before they fully ascend and stop existing, they dream about they're most wanted desire or wishes. Just like how survivor wanted to find their family, monk wanted to find survivor, and hunter is a bit of a mystery but I think they wanted their disease to be cured and to reunite with their creator? That's my theory though.
One of the white pearls has a complaint from the inhabitants of shaded citadel. The general gist is
"Yo don't build five pebbles over our church"
To explain the Ancient City layers, perhaps they appear so structurally "drab" due to the focus of dying permanently that the Ancients had around this time. The billionaires and political figures among them were most certainly focused on endorsing ways to die without becoming those weird echoes as oppose to construction, and thus material budgets would plummet.
I’ve been wondering about those orange void eggs, spent forever trying to look up what they were called thank you so much for clarifying
really good video. just one thing you missed - on the top of FP, in the last screen before you go inside, you can actually see the bottom of one of the ancients' tower blocks. you can see the floors on exactly the same plane as slugcat can see them. could help with figuring out the size of the ancients, from the looks of that, and how the background buildings are arranged in their wonky fashion, i doubt theyre any bigger than a scavenger
I always assumed the stuff at Shoreline was the wreckage of Moon.
The one at 7:05 looks like it forms a ring, kinda reminds me of the destroyed support rings from the Space Elevator in Halo.
As for the snaking ones, they may have been warped during the collapse, you also see similar snaking pipe structures during the climb up The Leg.
i really do wonder if the ancient's language is supposed to be understood, i'm thinking about this now with the knowledge about tunic's own languages (there are in fact multiple languages in it, not just the alphabet)
I certainly think it's a logographic (each symbol is a word/concept) language! Here's my reasoning/examples
1. Stolen Enlightenment achievement symbol, a mix of the karma 4 and monk symbols. We've inferred that karma 4 is gluttony based on the murals in Five Pebbles. So Stolen Enlightenment, where you eat one of Moon's neurons, is represented with a symbol group of "gluttonous/greedy monk"
2. The Scholar achievement, two symbols grouped together. One symbol is seen alone in the Wanderer achievement. So the Scholar symbols could be "wanderer/curious knowledge"
3. The Scavenger graffiti in Moon's chamber is multiple symbols. On the left is part of the Chieftain and Friend achievement symbols, it could mean "companion/non-violent". The symbols on the right look almost exactly like the Scholar achievement, so it could be the Scavs marked Moon as "friendly scholar"
That's interesting, and I agree, though it does imply that scavengers and intelligent enough to learn language.
@@arando689 so karma symbols would represent concepts and together they form larger concepts that represents actual things or groups of things in the world, that's an interesting language building for sure
Some people have asked the devs about this and they sort of implied that in general, the symbols have meaning
Considering the concept of purposed organisms, imagine if scorn and rain world are just different moments of the same story getting increasingly weird and disturbing
What if the giant mech worms in shoreline are five pebbles way of sucking up moons water
Seems like something he'd do...
The disorderly construction of the buildings on top of the iteratiors may be jagged bacause their construction was rushed, if they went up there to avoid the rain they most likely wanted to get up there as fast as possible
It took generations to build the Iterators, and the puppet didnt come online until everyone was settled I believe
So it may just be aesthetic
Pebbles was 100% yelling slurs at you, can confirm.
That's in character.
3:01 thats why this is the memory crypts?
I think the arms in shoreline are from Moon's structure before it was destroyed by pebbles, they probably supported some outside part of her facility given how large Pebble's is. The articulation would ensure flexibility under wind/rain along with some other benefits that come from having a raised structure.
I had no idea that those cages had flesh tubes in them! And i love that pearl theory considering pearls normally having a biological origin.
My guess for the serpents would still be moon supports, but more like giant cables. Since Moon is on the coast, and built earlier, they might have used a different can design.
Well, knowing that Moon is a fallen iterator in the sea, one can assume that the "serpents" for number 3 could be parts for Moon's can before it fell.
Hello Daszombes! That was an amazing video! I've learned more things with these curiosities!
If I would suggest one more topic, It would be the Graffitis made by the ancients. You can find a gif showing every graffiti in the steam community of RW. There's some of them that's really interesting!
This is the coolest video ever it explains all my questions
My thoughts on the red floors in the ancient cities is that those were the rooms of ascended ancients, pretty much just saying “hey these are unoccupied”
Edit: also on an unrelated note, I think that the weird leviathan like things in the backgrounds of shoreline are newer versions of garbage worms, although they were abviously more efficient they are clearly less long-term.
8:12 THATS A HUGE VOIDSPAWN HOLY MOLY
Not going to lie I always thought the shoreline wormie background elements looked like legs. Like spider legs reaching out to try to lift a much larger main body up from where it collapsed and was covered in water. Always freaked myself out thinking about it.
i always presumed they were old mining equipment incapacitated by water
yes, you did it, you finally said iterator right! good job das
12:30 the symbols in the red square grid... those kind of remind me of the lightbulb thingmabob artificer has in place of an overseer?
Well the itorators needed massive amounts of water so maybe in number 3 the tube like structure was a way of transferring water to moon and when moon collapsed they collapsed with her. Also, they don’t appear to have been designed to move at all so I don’t really think that they are an older version of the leviathan
I say any Rain World content from you is gold, favorite RW related youtuber, you rock!
The void spawn appearing after the neuron fly consumption can probably be a reference to insight in Bloodborne/HP Lovecraft's work
id love to hear an update on number 2 now that we actually know what that city looks like from the inside
12:17 the boxes could represent all of the iterators on the continent and the green one represents five pebbles, the karma ten represents what goal they must complete, the triple affirmative.
EDIT: oh that's what you said
10:20 heh heh heh, ahhhh retro spect. Makes videos fun to come back to.
I think the ancient city looks the way it does is because they were all horribly depressed and sort of half given up on building anything.
They didn't lie, that world can rain
8:26 my idea of these was that they are creatures that died and are trying to disappear, since some look like lizards or small animals. I don't know why I thought of this, I'm pretty sure now that the creatures can't disappear yet? they just cycle, right?
At some point while five pebbles it trying to type at you, he uses a different font or script. Idk I just found that interesting. He also repeats something he says to you slower at some point. And he is totally insulting slugcat’s intelligence the whole time.
I always wanted to see that city close-up, the last days of ancients, to see their apartments, rooms, the look from upper floors, streets, etc.
Would probably be very bare bones. The Ancients were monks who were spurning the material world as much as they could to prepare for Ascension. The mishmash jenga towers are exactly the sort of thing people would build only to keep the rain off their heads with little thought for long term habitation.
Another thing adding to the "Liggy belongs to NSH" theory is, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Liggy appears more often in the Hunter's time.
That would furthermore support the theory, that Hunter's sickness is part of NSH essence(?) trying to ascend by using Hunter as it's vessel. He positioned his overseer near the void sea to see if his mission was successful.
That, plus neuron sent to the Moon by NSH through hunter is also of green colour.
One Question - didya have "Find all coloured pearls and bring it to Moon" run? I't would be nice to see how it goes... Although you must be weray about "friendly" Scavs which may follow you to the shelter - and then your colored pearls become THEIR colored pearls
13:08 I like to think that the symbol talked about here means ‘person’ or something similar, like someone who is above simple animals, though this is mainly just because it looks like a mix of the third Karma symbol (likely meaning Companionship or something similar) and the lower half of the echo symbol (which is also shown in the clip of Pebbles showing big text). If this were somehow true, im guessing that arrow and symbol may be asking the slugcat to rise above being a simple animal so it can ascend.
Now we know (amongs other things) the symbol talked near the end was the gate symbol (its now on every pipe leading to gates with downpour,remix edition)
the weird shoreline snakes to me have always been either weird architecture for the sake of being weird or were either grabbing claws/ involved in some long-lost process carried out by the ocean. maybe they were involved in maintaining stuff in the ocean or around it but were either decommissioned early on being tied down with those metal strings or were destroyed by the rain and now languish in pieces
6:55 considering the 'single eye-mouth' bit, I think the giant robo-snakes are the _only_ thing she could be describing. After all, there's nothing else in the game with any kind of eye-mouth, as far as I know.
WORM GRASS
oh my god its worm grass
the small ones were light trash for personal use and the big ones are heavy trash and industrial use!!! thats why they eat everything!!
Number 3 at 5:57
If you look closely, you can see the jaw of a leviathan between the 2 "prongs".
It's like the leviathan was a purposed organism that would fit in these huge mecanical snake and drive it like a vehicles (submarine?).
Void spawn could be a remnant of those who ascend kind of like echoes but you know, much less. Maybe that is what infant void worms are as well
5:10 power poles
Gerard (???) is also seen in Drought, following Wanderer similar to Iggy as the slugcat adventures. As Wanderer was created/modified by Seven Red Suns, Gerard is most likely Sun’s overseer 👀
5:44 I always thought these were long dead leviathans.
for the things near moon, snaky things, i like to think they’re basically what moon used to suck up water while their was more water between 5p and her, although now much of the water has been drained down making these large water sucking devices visible, they may have been able to bend with the currents of they water and have the wires to help hold them in place
I had never actually noticed the cabinet beasts until you brought it up in this video. I guess I’ll be looking for them on my next playthrough.
I think that the weird "serpents" were possibly used to ark electricity between the two prongs attached to them. perhaps they were used for a long eroded power facility. sounds familiar to waterfront complex?
The serpents near moon might be a way to give the livithen its head witch would imply that there might be livithens without the head
Okay the real question tho:
Do the slugcats purr?
what if the cabinet beasts and void worms are connected? They look similar, the cabinet beasts store memories and the void worms are only visible when you eat memories via neuron fly, maybe they lead to the void sea because they remember the ancients desire to die
12:12 my assumption is that these are all the metropolis citizen id drones/keys to the city, they heavily resemble sofanthiel
the last symbol in pebbles' last projection seems to highly resemble the third karma symbol but with a line down the middle
The "Worms" outside of moon are 100% support beams/remnants of Moon's leg(s). There's a pearl that gets her to talk about it and we can see them after (SAINT SPOILERS) 5P's can collapses in Saint's campaign nearby the remains of Shaded and around the Silent Construct
I think the green overseers are NSH's and i do think green is a hint at that. Moon had yellow overseers and yellow neuron flies, 5P has blueoverseers, and when his neuron flies are not rainbow, they are blue. Hunter carries a neuron fly from NSH to restore Moon, and its colour is green.
My brother has a theory that the Sepent-like things on shoreline are old transit towers for a tram system
Broooo the beginning with the Lisa music???? Oh ma gawd!!! Good on you
i have a theory about the 5p screen.
basically, the 1 karma gate is a karma gate ingame. we can see that 5p can control them, as shown in gourmand. my theory is that wheel is to set requirements for karma gate, and gate symbol either refers to a singular gate, or (unlikely) a gate's status in karma req. the metro system might refer to a possible form of transport in 5p for his residents. the 4 symbols in the green grid may refer to the houses on pebbes. however, I believe that the green symbol in red grid refers to sliver of straw, as that would tie in with 5p's work. it is also rather clear that it refers to iterators, seeing ass the grid is grouped around a picture of a iterator can.
1:56 I assume those are samples of purposed organisms, which are used by the iterators, since they can easily genetically modify creatures and they will need to store all the data about genetic code of their purposed organisms to have samples of them and not store thousands of terrabytes of data inside them or pearls. I guess those creatures are dryed out, or simply conservated to keep their state fine for as long as possible. That explain why all of them are different.
13:15 - I don't know where I read this, but this letter is supposed to mean something like "friend" or "ally" I think you can see it for the achievement "the Friend", when you tame a lizard.
Personally I think the “serpents” are some kind of construction tool.
This explains the articulation, as they would need to bend and be able to somewhat move around.
The prongs could be used to grab and or cut material, maybe even function as drills?
You should make more of these also there’s the vulture mask drawing on the wall in ski island
7:21 it is also perhaps possible that the reason they are functionally dead is because when moon's complex collapsed it stopped producing power that was being supplied to them, causing them to lock up like that
The uneven layers could offset the drag further from the surface, like whiffing on a golf ball, assuming the wind as a reason
At the top of the wall, you can see the moon ( not the iterator) that is identical to the moon on earth
Daszom Little Inferno dlc. The pink logs are real!
The red boxes with symbols in them might be listing all the types of creatures and the green one might be a slugcat.
Like, the symbols probably represent the names of creatures.
For the building thing, I think I have an idea on why they look like that. It really reminds me of slums. In a lot of cultures that live in these kind of towns each seperate building belongs to one family and they expand it to house new family members. That's what gives them that weird disorganized look. Maybe the ancients didn't exactly live by families, but they probably expanded their buildings to house new habitants and that gave them that look
Those weird constructs in shoreline reminds me of the destroyer from terraria
The top left icon pebbles Seoul subway thing does not contain the karma 2 because pebbles is an iterator and iterators can’t do karma 2
Next video idea: Look at all the graffiti. Some are clearly from the old ones but others are helpfull markings of fellow "wildlife".
The 4x4 arrays of symbols in 5P's slideshow match the "citizen ID" for ancients we see in downpour later used in one of the (not-karma but now ID badge) gates. I think this video came out before that, but it seems now like it's referring to an ancient specifically rather than an iterator specifically.
1. Likely meant to process and release living memory pearls.
2. Likely purposeful works of architecture, and individual ancients that have enough money to be able to pay for different floors to live on.
3. An old model of a purposed organism that was scrapped.
4. The spirits of ascended creatures purposefully manifest to assist in guiding the Slugcat. They only appear after eating a neuron (or as Saint) because Slugcats likely start glowing and gain a unique sense that allows them to see them.
5. Iggy comes back because of the cycle; Overseers are affected too! That also explains the number of Overseers that return to her when power is restored.
6. He is calculating the information on the Slugcat. The symbols are just meanings of things we never see in-game.
Huh heheheh, i never noticed that. I was always so confused going into 5 pebbles room just WAITING to get to understand him. That’s pretty funny he’s TRYING but you literally just don’t get it & he starts throwing all caps at u & insulting your brain size.
What if the subway map is literally a map of the void fluid transport systems in subterranean and they appear on five pebbles’s google slideshow as the destination slugcat has to go to to access the depths? Could also be a map of the filtration system with its winding pipes
4: the ancients used void fluid for things other than escaping the cycle. They also used it in the Iterators. This might have something to do with this, probably a better example, but just wanted to share.
i personally believe that the wormy things in shoreline may have been remote controlled drills used for excavating moon's site. maybe using their newly found void fluid somehow? i believe this because the props used to build the little mandible things are actually drills!
12:08
I think those may be ancients or somewhat, the highlighted one being Pebbles’ (main?) creator! Just a thought 🤔. Them being iterators is possible too because we barely know anything about this thing, and also symbols in boxes (which could be cans) so 🤷💫✨
Wonderful video! Neat hearing more on Cabinet Beasts 👀💖💕!! I guess they really are hard drives, but that makes for such an interesting concept if they’re iterator organs 👁👁💝. Fantastic work yet again ^^💫✨! Pearl video oo 👀
WOOOO ANOTHER DAS VIDEO! :D
4:13 those are bar codes on the left there scan em
11:11 That picture dose not look difficult to interpret. there are two factions represented by the purple text above the red boxes and they are not happy with each other. Then you have the red boxes themself, those are clearly names and the highlighted in green is Five Pebbles himself so its safe to say that the other ones are also names for other Iterators. then you have the garbled mess that looks to be subway tunnels in the upper right part of the picture. I interpret that as his domain, as you can see that part has degraded quite a lot so its fair to say it is as damaged as the world he is responsible for. The red part in the bottom right looks to be a warning of some kind.
Gerard is my canon now. Thank you.
Regarding architecture - this is how Russian panel housing is looking like.
My biggest rain world mystery is: what the fuck is worm grass and what the fuck is it doing in farm arrays? They seem to have been here since before the self genocide of the ancients, as the Farm Arrays echo comments on the “grasses still swaying in the winds.” The presence of them seems to be intentional, or at least their being there was not something that the ancients cared about. One might think that worm grass is the source of the fabled “nectar” that is brought up in a few pearls, but if it is, then why is it carnivorous? The ancients can just genetically engineer anything, so why didn’t they genetically engineer the grass to not eat them? Was it to allow the plant to get nutrients through meat? If so, then why is one of the most common sources of meat in the game, green lizards, immune to it? The probable answer is that it’s an adaptation on the part of the green lizards, which actually makes sense, since the green lizards seem to have quite a number adaptations, (resistance to red lizard bites, low movement to conserve energy, immunity to centipede shocks, immunity to small rot cysts, etc.) however I have a different theory: green lizards are feral, and all of their adaptations are the result of domestication. Their taming difficulty being the lowest in the game, as well as them being relatively non-aggressive and loyal temperament lead me to believe that they were once the ancient’s pets. Their high aggression towards each other leads me to believe that they were used for something akin to dogfighting, and their aggression and resilience to other lizards might imply that they were used for protection against them. But now I’m going on an unrelated tangent, so back to worm grass: why the fuck do gooieducks repel worm grass? Moon says that they are some kind of spore deposit, but that doesn’t really say anything about why they repel worm grass. Maybe they were used as ways for the ancients to get across the worm grass safely, similarly to how we, and, if this theory is correct, possibly the ancients, use rain deer. There’s just one problem though: the Farm Arrays echo uses a strange adverb to describe the grass’s swaying: “gently”. Since “gently” doesn’t really describe eating everything that is too impatient to wait five eons for a rain deer to come to their side of the grass sea, this means that the worm grass didn’t want to eat the ancients. This makes no fucking sense, because if the worm grass was passive towards the ancients, then why the fuck do Rain Deer, the combination between a domesticated animal and a deer that lives on a fucking farm and serve a very specific purpose of letting you traverse the worm grass, exist. I’m sorry for this long-ass comment, I just needed to get this mystery off my chest.
maybe the serpents were the beams used for construction mentioned in one of the white pearls saying "This is a blueprint for a support beam used for the construction of early industrial areas. You can see these in use not too far from here." ???
11:26
the red box, bottom left, only one with green text
is that arti's citizen pass?
if not man thats c l o s e
A really intriguing thing I don't see people talk about a lot are those spires you can see in the background of that one room on The Wall. Specifically, the room where you can see a bunch of iterators. Besides them, the most notable thing in the background are these pointy spires with a bunch of things poking out of them. They appear to be even taller than iterators which is interesting
also what's the song that plays around 10:35? i think it's from rain world but i can't remember the name
Hey, I hope I speak for a lot of people who say we usually don't mind sponsored segments, and whatever way you wanna get that bag I support 💚💚💚 I love your videos, and I'll definitely call you the mossbag of our community :)
Looking at the red blocks in Pebbles's slideshow, the one to the right of the highlighted symbol (presumably Pebbles) looks similar to the stolen enlightenment achievement, which resembles and relates to Moon. Given their proximity it makes sense that they're side by side.
