Solving Minecraft's Biggest Mystery

[@bruinironside]

The glaring fact about disc 5 is that it is made of disc fragments, meaning that the story the disc tells is incomplete, hence the merging of Dungeons and Java could be two different discs combined into one.

There was another broken disc (11 if im not mistaken ) and if you play disc 5,and then disc 11 with the offset of 11 secs (or in the other order) they line up perfectly, and are making the possible story more complete.

What if the frame *IS* a portal, a portal to Minecraft dungeons, the reason sounds come from both games, showing the story on both sides, perhaps they needed the warden to kill the wither to activate it. It's a longshot, but possible.

[@wyattb9578]

I love this theory

[@sboy2044]

Bruh, they literally said that both games are from the same universe.

[@nastykerb34]

in differnt places

[@fshmeft]

​@@sboy2044 It IS from the same universe but the End and Nether along with the Overworld could very well be bundled in the same Universe as well. It has been theorized that the Nether is what lies below the bedrock layer of the overworld. Also the appearance of a sun and a moon and even distant stars in the night sky means there is many other solar systems with their own planets, this could be why the End seems to be in an endless void possible being a pseudo galaxy with all it's island or another (and possible more likely) idea is that the End is in a very large but still forming star system and the island being in a spot similar to the asteroid and Kuiper belt in our solar system. This explains why a portal is needed because you can't simply fly back to the End once you have obtained an Elytra due to it's great distance. Also the End in MC:D has different plants and animals meaning it may be the Ancient Builders but at a point in time when they were weaker and haven't fully killed off and exploited the End for it's resources. And the Vengeful Heart of Ender (which the the Heart of Ender after it gets defeated) used to be the Arch Illager. The follow this up there are tons and tons of illagers throughout the levels of the game meaning this race used to be abundant and powerful with the ability to take over and destroy villages and capture their residents. Now in the main time of MC:J the illagers are few and far between having the occasional outpost, the illagers also need the assistance of a player to lead them to a village showing how far they've fallen since the events of MC:D (which according to this theory has taken place in the past). A little something to think about. :)

[@sboy2044]

@@fshmeft You got a lot of stuff completely wrong. The Arch-Illager is not the Heart of Ender. The Heart of Ender is the Orb of Dominance, who is a sentient entity who used the Arch-Illager as a puppet to fulfill its goals. The reason for the abundance of illagers is due to then having taken over the land, which is literally the plot of Dungeons. The plant-life in the End could be due to the Orb of Dominance/Vengeful Heart of Ender’s presence in the dimension, as it is implied to have a strong connection to it. It has been stated a bunch of times that the Nether and End are dimensions, which wouldn’t make sense if they existed in the same space as the Overworld. It is extremely likely that Dungeons takes place after the base game. This is due to the fact that the end portal is already open, and how in Dungeons the undead were immune to the sun by the Orb, when in the base game the undead clearly still burn in daylight.

[@djphantom8800]

I like the idea of the frame being a catalyst. Maybe it went out of control with the Wither's death and covered the whole city in sculk.

[@toriwastakenn]

Something I've tried, which seems explaining, might help. Place three jukeboxes, count to 5, when you've done that place disc 5. Continue counting, until you've counted to 11, and then place that disc. Continue counting to 13, then place disc 13. It sounds connected in some way.

[@kix_501st]

[@keroppib4ptista]

I’ve seen this but I doubt it because in mojang, when you make a feature with a backstory (yes, backstory), you can’t say what that backstory is to any other employees (Idk why, but it’s in the dev book). Of course, the dev book was made after c418 left but even then how would Samuel Åberg (I think is his name) would know that. But since c418 left minecraft we might never know :(

[@Paulsafaliche135]

6:50 BROOO, i just realized, the echo shards are basically amethist shards, because amethist is used in the calibrated sculk sensor to be more precise and capture sound better but is used for souls instead of sound like the recovery compass, how the warden pray intruder creatures to get more powerful and get the experience with the catalist that is droped by him. That is why this thing makes a lot of sens in the dark lore of the Minecraft !

[@purplehaze2358]

The use of the endersents might also be alluding to some connection between the sculk and the end. Like, has nobody mentioned the fact that sculk and ender pearls have uncannily similar coloration?

[@W01FG04T]

Yeah, something I've always wonder is why does the nether portal look like it would be the end portal? Like it purple and black and colours, and the portal to the end look like scull related, it's always confused me

[@sersys1]

Absolutely brilliant. You put a clicking ticking background music over the sounds effects and chimes you are analysing to make sure the listeners get confused whether the effects they are hearing are coming from the back ground music or not.

[@DarthGaming13]

Here's my theory on disc 5: The first section is showing people in the deep dark, based on the dripstone and other cave-affiliated sounds. It is an army fighting something, which is why we hear many people and sirens blaring. I think they are fighting the wither, which forced them to go beneath the surface. That is also why I think the ancient cities are more likely to appear under mountains, because it provides extra protection against the wither. Anyways, the wither you can hear creating explosions getting closer to the city. You can also hear a lever and a huge gust of wind in the track, indicating that the army has opened some sort of gate. That is then the end of section 1. After the music plays, you can hear the machine coming to life as the people try to escape through the huge center portal, which I believe they built as an emergency escape. That is why it is made of reinforced deepslate, because it is one of the few blocks the wither can't break. However, something else comes out of the portal instead, the sculk. That is why you can hear sculk shriekers and sensors. The warden then proceeds to get summoned, and kills the wither. You can hear the slowed down death of the wither in the track. The people then view the warden as a hero, but they soon find out he is deadly to them as well. That is why I think they built many representations of the warden, like the small statues around the city. Eventually, however the sculk gets too powerful and the people have to leave. That is when I think they made the strongholds, to try and get away to another dimension to escape the sculk. Also, any static or random cuts in the track I believe are just the fact that it was broken into shards, so it's not completely perfect. It's just a theory, but I think it's a pretty good one. Feel free to agree or disagree in the replies.

@Not Accurate Thank you!

[@flogchamp9530]

I think this theory is pretty good. could be they summoned the warden, could be they were trying to get away from the wither, but either way it's not super hard to guess that they were the ones who ultimately brought the warden. the one thing I don't entirely agree on is that they'd have to escape to another dimension to avoid the sculk, since it clearly can't really spread too far and they'd want to wait before they knew they were gonna be overrun, my only guess is that another wither must've been spawned but ultimately I think it's just a plothole for now that will get resolved later. other than that, i'm pretty sure this is the most plausible theory.

[@LoudMikeDoesRoblox]

HOW THE FUCK DID I JUST READ THAT WHOLE STORY WITHOUT MY BRAIN EXPLODING IN INFORMATION

[@Robins-gamingnest]

I think that the giant catalyst in the deep dark city is a Interdimensional Travel Device (A device that allows travel between dimensions/alternate universes/planes of existence/etc) that the ancients built two escape from something and they couldn't control it and they ended up at the bottom of a cave that they could not get out of and that's why they went Extinct before the player spawns in the world to meet them.

[@SemiHypercube]

I like how open to interpretation Minecraft lore is

[@goldenarrow7134]

I feel this might be something else entirely. The ancient builders built the ancient cities but it too is possible that they built dungeons. We know they could access multiple dimensions. What if the disc5 is the story of the ancients, them escaping from the surface to the underground , then the warden appearing, the fight, escaping to nether and from there to the end. The unfortunates transforming into the beasts who will guard the entrance, while some would create duplicate copies for someone to rescue them. Food for thought

[@443MoneyTrees]

This makes so much sense. There’s two stories at once and it makes sense, remember in a video about the warden you said the ancient builders split into two groups? One stronghold and one ancient city. The dungeons could be the story of the stronghold and the Minecraft could be the ancient city

Alright, I'm just spit balling here. The voice whispering "secrets" and placing soul sand might be Ivor from Minecraft story mode constructing the wither storm. We already know that at one point there was wither storms in the nether due to the giant wither fossils in soul sand valleys. So it's not completely out of the picture that they might be adding something from story mode to Minecraft to add more evidence Mojang has been focusing on the past and history of Minecraft recently.

[@chuckpatty1760]

the crossover between minecraft and minecraft dungeons is clear (and gives a whole lot more possibilities for lore, even beyond disc 5), personally i liked your theory, and have a few random things to say that are hard to connect, so here is an unconnected list: 1. the sound you described as a cave in also sounds like an endersent smashing, you can here a faint vwoop (thats the official term for that sound... right?) right as the cave shakes 2. the official novel about the arch illager mentions an ancient war between the orb of dominance and the ancient buiders (thats how the orb got trapped in that mountain in the first place) the encounter with the endersent could imply that the disc was made during this war. 3. you put my two previous thoughts together and suddenly, maybe it isnt a wither, but an army of endersent (and probably enderlings and who knows, maybe a dragon too) wait... that list was connected...

There should be a story for the minecraft journey. Not like dungeons or story mode.

Who knows, a new biome might hit, and I reckon they should add a deep dark equivalent in the nether. As the nether should deserve it more, being a mysterious and dead place. Maybe the nether will get a story where it was once normal, and then burned down and destroyed. So the nether was the original world and they retreated to the "overworld"

I like the theory but the frame IS a portal..The replica version of it you can find in the ancient cities is called "Small Portal Statue" which heavily hints that the larger one is in fact a portal of some kind There's just some small holes in the theory like that major one; such as what is the "army" for?? You mention them gathering for the wither...but also say they want the warden to kill it? Why gather an army to just not fight something and let it be killed by another beast? It's a weird detail. I think I like Mat's theory on the minecraft section happening more..The wither breaks in, they gather an army and try to fight it, but it's too strong..they try to flee and activate the portal but this only brings the warden into their world (a mistake), the warden kills the wither however the people then have to live in quiet fear as any noise they make gets them killed by the new beast they brought into their world.

[@Yoda_16358]

If you take the three numbered disks (5, 11, and 13), and set up three Jukeboxes, you can count to 13 seconds and start Disk 5 at the 5 second mark, 11 and the 11 second mark, and 13 at the 13 second mark, and it sounds like all the tracks connect (and no I didn't find this I'm just sharing)

congratulations on getting into harvard

[@1Lomero]

You know that you need to put disc 5 first in then wait 6 sec and put disc 11 then wait 2 sec and finaly disc 13. Only then ou will understand the full meaning of it.

[@bulopaputungan6303]

fact:grab all the curse disc and put them in order count 1 to 13 if you counted 5 or 10 or 13 put the corresponding disc it will make a whole entire lore and story

[@leofurlong2169]

At 6:30 the sound I think resembles a wither

[@ANITBIOTICS]

@Wifies could you pls do a video on other discs and maybe some lore around that. like how otherside is found in strong holds and the name and stuff? idk I know that might not be enough for a whole video but yeah.

[@the0nlysoul]

Great lore video as always!

The golden apple in the city chest suggests needing it for something youre supposed to do there. What if youre supposed to draw the warden to the center, then stand with the frame between the player and the warden, then let it try and attack you with the sonic boom thing. Maybe you eat the golden apple beforehand in order to survive the boom, since the player has to stand infront of the warden in order to direct the boom properly

[@prodyeti]

^ to clarify, my idea is the by getting the warden to boom through the frame, it either activates the portal (If it is one) or whatever else it does

[@patrick3168]

I think the noises are a player leaving the ancient city while something is happening to the portal. The player reachs the surface and is chased back by a wither who fights the warden. then something comes out of the portal and kills the wither. I think that this indicated a new boss / dimension coming soon thats powerful enough to oneshot a wither

9:18 ITS MEEEEEEEEE

[@greencopper12]

XD

[@doodooslayer]

i can’t believe you are in harvard

[@Gyashonav]

2 story's at once, almost as if they happening at the same time (possibly near each other indicated by the phantoms). By the way, Ansestry (the sound track) ocoring in the deep dark hints that that's were Steve (and possibly Alex too) is from.

[@axethedoggo8246]

That's actually a really creative way of explaining it

[@zombee614]

I love it when this guy uploads. So cheerfully morbid.

[@Infectinator443]

i think this is a foreshadowing to whats behind the deep dark portal. maybe dungeons and regular minecraft are connected by that portal, the army you hear is from dungeons. the warden and skulk noises from minecraft. that disc is fragemented bc it was formed during a battle between the two worlds. explaining the ruins and the cutoff from the dungeons lore and mob variants
