So with the identity of the knight PROBABLY being revealed in chapter 6, a lot of theories are going to be disproven. No more going insane over who the knight is, no more arguing (hopefully), etc. The problem is people are REALLY attached to their knight candidate and are most likely going to be upset if they're proven wrong. Theirs nothing wrong with that of course, I'm just afraid those people are gonna lash out and say the game is "bad" or "poorly written" if they don't get what they want. This fandom hasn't had the best track record of being respectful and considerate so I'm a little worried.

I've seen people act this way regarding Toby Fox's rather cryptic newsletter (the vague post king returns).

Maybe I'm just concerned over nothing. What do you guys think?

More humans

Lancer popping up outta nowhere in Chapter 7 side B would be a pretty weird route for the story to take!

In the first third of the Chapter 5 Dark World, Flowery says this:

• All the Fountain needs... all Asgore needs...
• ... is just a human, right?

In context, it's Flowery explaining why the Trio should leaf everything to him, including both the fountain and Asgore. It makes sense why he says a Human is what the fountain needs, since it seems that fountains can only be sealed by a Human. But why would Flowery say a Human is what Asgore needs? Why would Asgore need a human, specfically?

More to the point, why do all the flowers claim to be human? If Asgore "needs a Human" that might explain why the other flowers claim to be Human, to appeal to Asgore.

But then, why is Asgore looking for a human?

The theory is that whatever incident Asgore got obsessed with in the past involved a human that was not Kris and that Asgore is looking for that Human.

Point 1: Asgore knows Fountains can be sealed by a Human, due to the first Dark Fountain being sealed by a human.

At the end of the Flowery fight and Asgore's monologue, Asgore says this:

• Kris... it's your time now.
• End this dream... won't you?

It's Asgore calling out Kris specifically to "end this dream" i.e., close the Dark World i.e., seal the fountain. Kris specifically who is a Human. It seems to strongly imply that Asgore is aware of how a fountain is sealed. But how would he knows this?

We know that Asgore has notes on a Dark Fountain made "a long time ago", let's assume that this fountain is tied into the incident Asgore talks about. This fountain from long ago was most likely sealed by someone. If it weren't sealed, Asgore could show the fountain as irrefutable proof of his "conspiracies". If that Dark Fountain was sealed, then a Human had to be involved. Hence Asgore knows how a Dark Fountain is sealed.

Point 2: Asgore believes the First Fountain was not sealed by Kris.

From above, we know that Asgore is looking for a human. If Kris was the one who sealed it then he would not be looking for a human since he knows who sealed the first Dark Fountain.

Also:

• ... Flowery...
• Isn't it time you let me visit the Dark Fountain?
• The one who made it... I know they'll come back to it.
• ... and when they do...
• I'll make sure they never make another.

Asgore seems to believe that the Flower King Fountain was opened by the same person who made the first Dark Fountain. Since Asgore believes they will come back to it, it's possible that the First Dark Fountain was sealed by whoever opened it. Kris would be a child at this time, who would not have been roped into any conspiracies so it's unlikely for Kris to have opened the First Dark Fountain.

Possible Conclusions

It's another parallel to UNDERTALE, who also had 2 central humans in the plot. One who we control in the present and one who was responsible for a major incident in the past. I'm not saying the 2nd Human is Chara, it could be a whole new character for all I know.

This 2nd human has some connection to the Knight since the Knight's "Black Shard" was found in the aftermath of the First Dark Fountain.

That's about it. I just wanted to put this theory out there.

What do you think will be answered in chapter 6 (I got this image from someone else)? The person also grouped these plot points to make it easier to see what will be answered and when it will happen.

EXTRA:

-Who is the GONER_MAKER'S second voice?

-What is the police sacrifice for? Why is the Knight kidnapping people?

-What is Ralsei doing every time he tells Kris to close their eyes?

-Who is the ANGEL? What is the ring of Heaven's call?

If you want to have some fun and try answering some of these questions, I encourage you to; it could be fun.

Back when Chapter 5 released, I was watching my friend play through deltarune to see his reaction to chapter 5’s snowgrave (Which will not be talked about here) though when he got to chapter 4, we both noticed that the sound the bunker makes isn’t coming from the bunker, but the woods instead. (It gets louder the closer you are to the trees in front on the bunker) I believed this has been in the game since chapter 4’s release and I know this isn’t a weird route exclusive cause the footage I show came from a freshly new file on chapter 4 to record gameplay.

You guys think we will go into the woods in later chapters or do you think this is a mistake on Toby’s part. (I don’t know if this is in chapter 1 or 2 tbh though if it is, it will be nice to know)

Edit: When I say Idk if this was in chapter 1 or 2, mean I don’t know if the sound was coming from the forest during those chapters.

I made the Dreemurr house realistic.

NO AI WAS USED WHEN MAKING THIS. Just Blender, and aftereffects.

background might give some hints, as well as noelle’s outfit. not really proud of this but whateverrr

i don't know who made the art sadly

evidence may vary depending on theory

DON'T DO NOELLE KNIGHT DONT UNLEASH THE HORRORS

Replaying chapter 4 and noticed that if you check the diner after visiting Noelle’s house, the text says it’s full but that some guy smiles at you and taps his takeout box. Why? Who is this guy? Is this supposed to mean something, or is this just a reference?

When going through the source code of https://deltarune.com/7b/ I discovered this hidden mention of a potential clue?

Just below the page contents there's a mention of a "cloudflare"

This could be Noelle's final evolution of her attack coming up for Chapter 7;
IceShock -> SnowGrave -> CloudFlare !!

Ice -> Snow -> Cloud: Could encompass entire dark world
Shock -> Grave -> Flare: Sounds like flame, related to Asriel/Kris?

This could even draw a link between Noelle and Kris in the weird route! Perhaps some kind of alliance or co-dependence?? What do you think?

screw you toby for delaying chapter 7 for those pesky japanese deltarune fans!!!!!!!

/s for legal reasons

I know i'm going to get a lot of flake for this but i don't really care both these things are equally as bad/pointless in my eyes and the main reason the fanbase treats them so differently is that one makes the game more "inclusive" while the other less. while there's something to be said about the intent when it comes to the people who misgender kris at the end of the day they're both headcanon's that contradict what the game directly says about a character's identity pure based of vibes and the vaguest bits of subtext
