Some Vault Of Knowledge Ideas:

Some Vault of Knowledge ideas:

The Vault of Knowledge, obviously, is a place of knowledge, intended for preserving the memories and experiences of people more than holding actual writing.

The Vault itself is not there by nature and was instead built in the void through the incredible power of darkstone, making it so that they could theoretically keep extending the Vault forever.

There were also different ranks of memory keepers, with some of the higher ones wearing crests on their head to symbolize their rank and their prowess in magic.

The Vault once had a strictly regimented sorting system for the stored memories so that everything could be found easily. However, everything fell into disrepair once the inhabitants died and the Skykids don’t know the sorting system (and don’t have enough of an education to create one). Even if they did, most of the memories that were being stored in the Vault were cracked open and destroyed, leaving them empty shells.

Witnesses of major events were asked to record their recollections of what had happened on memories that would then be stored in the Vault for later researchers to find.

Certain areas of the Vault had designated keepers, who were high-ranking skyfolk in charge of preserving very specific and often powerful memories and spirits.

The very high-ranking Vault keepers were given specific graves after their death, which were often up-kept by other grave keepers.

This is all relatively straightforward, right? Because here’s an idea that goes in a slightly different direction. A vault is a place that’s locked up tight. This definition includes prisons, which I believe the Vault doubled as.

The Vault was not a lighthearted sentence, and was usually given to people who were considered an enemy of the state. The punishment involved a small realm being created and then attached to the Vault for easy access, and the people being punished being transformed into spirits that were bound to said place and altering their memories so they cannot imagine or remember their life outside the realm. These spirits were then given keepers who were in charge of making sure that everything went smoothly and none of them ever escaped. It was a huge effort to do, and so it was usually a punishment given to groups of people.

Essentially, the Vault double-functioned as a purgatory for people that Resh especially didn’t like. These spirits were also sometimes visited by living skyfolk so they could be used as examples of “how not to act, lest you end up like them”.

The Little Prince Spirits, Nine-Coloured Deer spirits, and Remembrance spirits were subjected to this punishment, and the punishment was effective enough that they are still imprisoned, even long after the fall of the kingdom they barely remember.

when artist consistently draws the same pattern of things for a long time like... Puppies or something.. and then gets interested in skeletons and starts consistently drawing skeletons....

Thats when a lot of people start to really be mean or show entitlement it's clear they view artists as "art dispenser" and not and actual person with a consciousness that flows like a river. It's like they think the art machine is broken and it used to give me puppy art but it's broken now and I get skeleton art so someone should fix it ?

People go through phases of things they like sometimes people really are into something for years and then they're into something else for years and then they go back to the old thing for a week and then they do something else again

Artists aren't brands they aren't corporations you aren't consuming them ... They're human people and they're trying to connect or get thoughts out or any number of reasons to create and share things and a lot of artists aren't even interested in making money off it..
