Year walk myling code#

The Mylings are all souls of babies that were drowned when their mothers couldn't afford to feed them.

The Huldra violently attacks you in her tree, and according to legend drinks blood from people, sometimes to the point of exsanguination.Mythical Motifs: They all seem to be associated with death in some fashion.The Fair Folk: They're primarily this with a touch of being outright cosmic horrors.The Huldra is explicitly stated to not operate on rules humans can understand in the companion app. Blue-and-Orange Morality: All of them seem to simultaneously want to help and prevent people from completing the Year Walk and seeing the future, which may be the result of Year Walking being akin to A Glitch in the Matrix that they are trying to compensate for, which may explain why they simultaneously help ( the Brook Horse giving you the key) and hinder followed by the Night Raven stealing it away your progress.Whether or not he created one by sending the knife back to Daniel so he had a weapon with which he could kill Stina, thereby giving Theodor the impetus to send the knife back in time with the intent that Daniel kill himself with it is pure speculation.

Stable Time Loop: Created one through his use of the box by finding the box in the forest, he was able to figure out its code and leave a knife in it for Daniel in the past, thereby ensuring that it would be there over 200 years later for him to find.Set Right What Once Went Wrong: His intent in sending the knife back to Daniel after unraveling the code of the box is that Daniel kill himself with it, thereby satiating the Watchers while letting Stina live a normal life.It's pretty heavily implied that he took his Year Walk to try and halt this process, although whether or not he succeeded is pure speculation. Sanity Slippage: Researching the cosmic horrors of the universe and those meant to protect it tend to do this to a person, although it really started in earnest after he took the box back from his trip to the game's location.Painting the Medium: His diary in the companion app is necessary for getting the secret ending, as the correct order of symbols for opening the box are presented in pictures he put in certain entries.Featureless Protagonist: Like with Daniel, we never know what he looks like.It was also his research into Year Walking that led to the secret ending of the game. Breaking the Fourth Wall: Theodor's diary is presented as if he were a real person doing this research and he's accordingly credited in the in-game Encyclopedia as the one who did the folkloric reseach for the game.Ambiguous Ending: All that's implied is that he went on his own Year Walk after sending the knife back to Daniel, not what happened after that.The note he left in the box for Daniel along with the knife could also qualify. Apocalyptic Log: His diary in the companion app comes off like one, although it really only picks up steam after he takes the box back to his place and starts having horrible dreams.The final few entries of his diary set up the secret ending of the game, and implies that he went on his own Year Walk. It turns out that the Year Walk is a very real thing, and his research into it draws the attention of the forces of the universe designed to protect the Things Man Was Not Meant to Know. His research into the subject is detailed in the diary found along with the companion app which is only accessible after beating the game once. Theodor AlmstenA present-day university professor researching Year Walks. Whether or not Theodor convinced him to kill himself and Set Right What Once Went Wrong so that Stina could live in the secret ending is completely up in the air. The Hero Dies: The secret ending reveals that he was executed a year later for killing Stina.Silent Protagonist: Never makes a sound over the course of the game.Featureless Protagonist: We never get to see what he looks like.So, less 'I've hit the Despair Event Horizon and I'll off myself', and more 'Will I do what this note in a box tells me to do?' Driven to Suicide: The secret ending leaves it really ambiguous as to whether or not he uses the knife sent back in time to him to kill himself or Stina, but Theodor Almsten's intent was that he kill himself so that the Watchers get their sacrifice while Stina gets to live a happy life.Determinator: If what he encounters on his Year Walk is standard fare for other Walkers, then he should be commended for being able to see it through to the end without being killed or succumbing to the horrors he encounters.
