#now it just looks like it'll be multiple event with only one egg as a reward

[notreallyuseless]

Man i seriously feel so empty and sad right now bc of some Minecraft roleplay... this is a disaster.

I know the qsmp team have (at least) a storyline to follow but can it not involve the eggs still not coming back? I'm saying this with nothing but good intentions but we've been waiting for the eggs to come back for so long and we had so many moments were we thought they were coming back that now... i just feel exhausted. We keep hoping for a good news but it's just a punch after another that now i'm just waiting for the next one. I don't know, maybe i'm just tired and i need a good night sleep.

The end of the event was really cool and intense, don't get me wrong! Everything was amazing! I'm scared for so many of the members that didn't get to the boat (and Dapper omg...) my only problem is : stop dangling the eggs in front of us. Bring them back or don't.

#qsmp #qsmp purgatory #most likely the last post about purgatorgy i'll write #i'll delete it tomorrow if the good night sleep made me change my mind #ngl they could have given us half of the eggs and i would have been satisfied for now #now it just looks like it'll be multiple event with only one egg as a reward #idk its just my thought #once again everything i say is LIGHT HEARTED #not negative

"Shadow was made based on Gerald studying the ancient echidna prophecy in Hidden Palace Zone." careful, you're getting fandom theories and headcanon mixed with the actual text of what you're talking about. there's never been a mention of Gerald working from Hidden Palace- all the ruins we see in SA2 are SA1 ruins. Even if Ian Flynn now retcons that in in some supplemental material, it'll still be a posthoc retcon.

Oh sorry I didn't see the sign over there

Not to be rude or anything, but I don't work for Sega or IDW or anyone official.

It's pretty clear Shadow is based on the look of Super Sonic. We never see Gerald investigate any ancient echidna stuff, but Maria does tell us some things about how the Artificial Chaos were created in the Shadow the Hedgehog flashback levels, confirming the obvious: that they were based on "the God of an ancient culture." (So, you know, Artificial Chaos were based on Chaos)

Now, what we see, both in Hidden Palace and Lost World, are murals depicting two things: a prophecy foretelling a fight between Eggman and Super Sonic, and Perfect Chaos. We never see any murals of lower forms of Chaos, but the Artificial Chaos are obviously based on something below Perfect Chaos.

When Chaos transforms for the first time, Eggman mentions "it's just as the stone tablets predicted." So there was possibly information on what lower forms of Chaos looked like. Where did he get them? Did he inherit them from Gerald?

Maybe he got them from The Lost World ruins. I mean, it's right outside of Final Egg, so maybe. Final Egg is also in the heart of a vast jungle, and from within Lost World itself, we can even see more ruins far in the distance. And if Eggman got them from Gerald's estate, who even knows where he got them from.

So there was detailed documentation about these things probably in multiple locations from both before and after the event that nearly wiped out Knuckles' ancestors and lead to the creation of Angel Island. After all, Lost World and Final Egg (plus the jungle surrounding it) aren't part of Angel Island -- only Icecap and Red Mountain are. (And a datamined list suggests Mushroom Hill was originally going to be represented in some form, too)

Through deduction, we can assume there's probably more than one Super Sonic mural. Maybe by different artists! Maybe even statues! Just like there are many different ancient hieroglyphs depicting Anubis in different shapes, styles, and forms.

It's splitting hairs. Live a little. It is an extremely educated guess that Shadow the Hedgehog is meant to be an interpretation of Super Sonic, wherever in ancient echidna culture that came from. The suggestion is pretty clear that Gerald was looking at that material around the same time both Biolizard and Shadow were created. It makes a hell of a lot more sense than "aliens from space made a blood pact."
