Talk:Ancient Statue/@comment-184.65.95.94-20191124030442

Has anyone noticed that the statues in the ancient gateway room have a giant mouth, many spikes, and a bug-like body? They look EXACTLY like a terrorbeak! And the "head" statues in the ruins look like the crawling horrors. 'They' are not the shadow creatures. Whoever 'They' are, They are not the shadow creatures. The shadow creatures are the remains of the ancients, who have been described to "shed their skins", revealing "monsters". The shadow creatures are just ancients drawn to insanity. The Ancient Fuelweaver tries to protect the player by killing the player, so that they don't suffer something WORSE THAM DEATH. When he dies, he says things like "fools!" and "You deserve this!" as if he knows you shouldn't kill him and suffer from Them. He also says "You are not them" and "who are you?" meaning something (not Them) took him away after defeat. What does he leave behing besides loot? A ROSE. Charlie must have silenced the ancient fuelweaver knowing he'll protect us from Them. The ancient fuelweaver could possibly be the king of the ancients, saying things like "my city". So thats why he can control shadow creatures, because the shadows are just his people! Also, the Bone Helm he drops allows you to be imune to them too!

This is just a theory, but I think it's plausible. (I posted this one the ancient fuelweavers page too)
