Some Quick NOTP Art!

(Note: This WILL be a shorter post. Sorry about that!)


Hey guys! 
HAPPY NIGHT OF THE PHANTOMS!!!

For some reason, I didn't get a banner when I logged onto AJ today... but maybe there isn't one. I dunno, XD!

Anyways, I gotta make this fast, because I'm going trick-or-treating with my family in a few hours! I'm dressing as a wizard this year, XD!
BUT I GOT A REAL LIFE WIZARD HAT, YOU GUYS
WHY DO I LIKE WIZARD COSTUMES SO MUCH
WHY AM I TYPING IN ALL CAPS
WITH NO PUNCTUATION
OKAY I'LL STOP NOW.

XDD! Anyways, have some NOTP art! :D

It's one of my Chicken Smoothie pets- Flora- that I named after my AJ wolf! The designs are green and purple, like the colors on my wolf, so that's why I named her that, XD!
I also put a witch hat on her on CS as a substitute for the wizard hat, so... yeah. XDD!
Anyways, it's not my BEST work, since I did it kinda fast, but I still like how it turned out! :D



Ack, okay, guess I better go now! See you guys soon! :D

My Blogger Project Chapter!

Hey guys!
Guess who's the next blogger in line to write a chapter for the Project storyyyyyy!?

Okay, don't guess, because I want to say it!

IT'S MEEEEEEEEE!!!




Welp, there's my intro for today. XD!

Anyways, since Lost recently posted HER chapter (by the way, if you haven't read it yet, go on over to the Animal Jam Jumble and read it- it's awesome!), it's time for me to finally put mine up! I'm super, SUPER excited to post this, and I hope you guys like it! So, without further ado, here's my chapter for the Project story! :D
(It's kinda long, so sorry about that, eheheh!)



*********************************************************************************



Swirl felt nothing underneath her feet as she fell through the void between portals. All she could see were bright, jumbled up colors, which whirled around her until she felt dizzy.
She closed her eyes, wondering what would happen next. Where would this portal take her? What kind of strange things lay ahead in the next portal? 
That is, if there is another portal. She slightly opened one eye, wondering if she would be stuck in nothingness forever.
Her narrowed eyes opened wide as she spotted a portal outlined in gray stone, the only normal surrounding. She fell towards it, and, as she got closer, she felt herself being sucked in by its powerful force. A blinding light appeared, and Swirl shut her eyes once again.
A few moments later, she felt herself land on solid ground, and she blinked her eyes open. Getting up, she rubbed her head a few times, then observed her surroundings. She was on a dusty, flat piece of land, which looked as if it might have been a field once. However, no matter where Swirl looked, she didn't see one patch of grass.
That's odd. Why is this place so barren?
Then Swirl whirled around, and what she saw made her sigh in relief. A city, its skyscrapers stretching high into the air, sat not too far away from where she was now. Swirl immediately started towards it.
When she reached the edge of the city, she stopped to look up at the huge buildings towering over her, and-
"What?"
Swirl's exclamation came out as an awestruck whisper. The structures, instead of being clean and modern-looking, were dull and dirty. Some windows were completely gone, and some had large holes in the glass. Cracks ran up and down the concrete walls, and some parts of the towers were even just large dents.
Fear beginning to strike inside of her, Swirl cautiously walked a bit further into the city. She glanced around in concern. Stores had tattered overhanging canopies, and all the windows that hadn't been broken were covered with wooden boards. Cars were parked on the sides of roads, and they were starting to rust, as if they hadn't been used in many years.
Everything in this place looks like it's been abandoned, Swirl thought. 
Suddenly, a loud creaking noise sounded right above her, followed by the noise of crumbling and cracking stone. Completely startled, Swirl yelped and dove away, falling to the ground and covering her head.
A loud crash sounded, and then there was silence. Swirl warily lifted her head and turned around. A large pile of stone now sat where she'd been just a few seconds ago. Glancing upwards, she saw that they had come from one of the skyscrapers.
"That was close", she muttered out loud, still slightly trembling. She dusted herself off, relieved she hadn't hurt anything in her mad dash, and started off again- this time, in the center of the road. After all, none of the vehicles seemed to be moving, anyway.
After a few more minutes, she still didn't see any signs of life.
"Hello?" she called out through the silence.
Her voice echoed off the walls of the buildings, but nothing answered her back. 
"Lost? Sarah? Gracie? Are you guys out there?" Swirl yelled at the top her lungs, her heart beginning to race at the thought of being all alone in a dangerous abandoned city.
Still no reply.
Letting out a shaky breath, she decided to accept the fact that her friends had probably been taken through completely different portals. Plus, if they had come with her, they probably would've fallen through the same portal, and landed in the same spot as Swirl... right?
Swirl continued walking through the concrete jungle, feeling more anxious with each step. But suddenly, as she was passing an alleyway, she heard a whisper.
"What are you doing here?"
Swirl jumped, whirling around in surprise. "Wh-who's there?"
A girl stepped out of the shadows. She wore a tattered tan top, covered in stains, and her gray pants were in the same condition. Her dark brown hair was tied back in a messy bun, and her matching brown eyes glinted in a mixture of curiosity and fear. 
"What are you doing here?" she repeated quietly. "I... I haven't seen anyone around this place for ages."
The words tumbled out of Swirl's mouth before she had a chance to think. "Me and my friends came from another dimension and got sent through a portal, and we keep getting split up, and then I fell out of another portal into this place."
Swirl expected the girl to stare at her as if she were insane, but instead, her eyes widened in curiosity. "A... portal?"
Swirl nodded.
"Pardon me for asking", the girl said politely. "But... what's a portal?"
Swirl blinked. "What's a portal? Well... it's... um..." Then she remembered that the only ones who had really heard of true portals before were her and her friends, and apparently, that girl who had sent them down the first one. This stranger probably wouldn't understand, much less believe her.
"Oh, never mind", Swirl sighed. "It's hard to explain." She looked around the quiet, broken city. "Do you live... here?"
The girl nodded solemnly. "But it wasn't always like this, you know."
"What happened?" Swirl asked curiously.
The girl turned to face her. "You say you come from another dimension. Is your world the opposite of this one?"
Swirl nodded. "Yeah, pretty much."
The stranger sighed. "I was afraid of that. If what you say is true... then... this IS your dimension. In the future."
Swirl stared at her. "That can't be true. This place looks nothing like where I come from!"
"Not right now", the girl replied. "But if-" She broke off. "Come with me." She grabbed Swirl's arm and dragged her through the alley, stopping at a fire escape ladder leading up the side of a building. She started up it, and Swirl followed cautiously.
Finally, the girl stopped in front of her, stepped onto the roof, and turned to look out across the city. Swirl copied her, and at once, her eyes widened.
The city looked even worse from up here. Destruction stretched as far as she could see. Piles of materials that once belonged to buildings now lay on the ground, and an entire skyscraper was dangerously close to tipping over. When Swirl looked to the fields beyond the concrete jungle, she saw nothing but brown.
"Soon, if your dimension's citizens continue with what they're doing, your world will look like this." The girl's voice was little more than a whisper.
Swirl kept on staring at the city, her heart beating faster. "How... how do you know?"
The girl didn't turn her head. "It's happened with many dimensions before. I've seen visions of them, and they've all turned out to look exactly like this."
Visions? So this girl has some sort of psychic powers. Maybe she knows more about my world than even I do. 
"I know many things you do not, trust me", the girl said, as if she'd read Swirl's mind. Then she gave a small smile. "By the way, my name's Raine, in case you were wondering."
Swirl grinned back sheepishly, feeling guilty that she hadn't asked the girl's name sooner, and that she hadn't shared hers. "I'm Swirl."
Raine was silent for a moment. "So... I'm guessing you want to get back home."
"Yeah", Swirl replied. "I need to find the rest of my friends."
"Well, we better find this 'portal' you came through quickly. If the sun goes down, and you're still here, you'll be trapped in this dimension."
"Like on TV?" Swirl asked, raising an eyebrow and grinning in amusement.
Raine blinked, looking slightly confused. "I... I guess so."
Swirl quickly glanced up at the sky. The sun was beginning to stain the sky pink and orange.
Raine stood up. "Show me where you appeared."
Swirl nodded, and led the way down the metal stairs all the way to the barren field she had arrived in.
"So... what does a portal look like, exactly?" Raine asked, scanning the horizon.
"Well... it's like... some kind of magical circle" Swirl fumbled. Gee, that sounds believable. "And the one I came through was bright green."
Raine sighed. "Well, I don't see anything around here. Maybe we should try the city?"
Swirl nodded, and this time let Raine lead.
When they stopped again, the two girls looked all around, scanning for a green circle. Just as Swirl was about to suggest they try another place, Raine gasped "Look!" and pointed above her. Swirl squinted up at one of the crumbling skyscrapers. A familiar bright green circle, with white lines inside that constantly changed, floated at the top.
"The portal!" Swirl gasped. Then she stiffened. How on earth am I supposed to get to it up there?
"You'll have to climb up to it", Raine said, somehow reading Swirl's thoughts again.
Swirl blinked, taking a step back. "Y-You can't be serious." Climb up inside a building that looks like it'll fall any minute? And to the very top?
Raine raised an eyebrow. "Can you fly?"
"No."
"Then climbing up is the only way."
Swirl glanced up at the sky again, and was shocked to find that the sun was beginning to touch the brown hills in the distance.
She sighed. "Okay, I'll go."
Swirl dashed up to the building and opened the door, but looked back.
"Thank you", she said to Raine. "I... I hope you'll be okay here by yourself."
The girl smiled slightly, then gave a small nod. "Hurry and go. The sun has almost set."
Swirl nodded back, then ran inside, leaving Raine staring after her seriously.
Inside, everything was coated in a layer of dust, and various things were scattered across the tile floor. Sometimes, a small piece of the ceiling would fall off, making Swirl jump out of the way. However, the eerie silence was what worried her the most. Everything was still, and Swirl half expected something to leap out at her from the dark shadows around her.
She groaned. Why did the portal have to appear here, of all places?
Figuring the elevator wouldn't be much help, she began to climb the stairs. Some creaked as she stepped on them, and she flinched.
She kept climbing set after set of stairs, until finally, she stopped, panting, at a door marked "To roof". She waited to catch her breath, then pushed the door open. A cold wind blew as she stepped outside the building onto a balcony, and the sky looked even darker than it had before. Swirl began to rush up the last few sets of stairs to get to the roof, trying not to trip and fall in the process.
Suddenly, a loud crack split the air, and she felt air underneath her feet where there was supposed to be concrete. With a scream of horror, she reached out her arm just as she began to fall, and barely managed to grab onto a stair rail. The pieces of the platform she had been standing on tumbled down past her.
Don't look down, don't look down, DON'T LOOK DOWN, she repeated over and over in her mind.
But she did anyway, and she instantly regretted it. She was so high up that the rusted cars looked like tiny toys from where she was, and, if Raine was somewhere below her, she certainly couldn't see her. Swirl yelled as loud as she could for help, but she was sure the sound wouldn't reach Raine, or anyone else.
Her fingers began to slip, and she gripped the bar tighter, trying to ignore the searing pain in her hand. She turned towards the hills. The sun was almost completely hidden behind them now.
I'm not going to make it, Swirl thought in despair. The portal will disappear without me, and I'll be stuck here forever! She felt her fingers slipping again. That is, if I don't fall. Oh, Lord, help me!
Finally, she could hold on no longer, and she released her grip on the bar, letting herself fall to the ground below.
But something flashed underneath her, and a green portal quickly formed, catching Swirl in its depths and swallowing her. Swirl opened her eyes to see the odd, but familiar, abstract background of the void between portals, and she let out a breath of relief.
"Swirl!"
Three voices shouted the exact same thing. Swirl turned to see Lost, Sarah, Ja, and another girl falling towards her through the empty space.
"This is Daylite", Ja told Swirl once they had reached her. Swirl smiled at the girl, and she smiled back and gave a little wave.
But, as they neared more portal entrances, the mysterious magical force began to pull at them. And then, the bloggers were sent through different portals yet again, on to different adventures of their own.



*********************************************************************************

15 Things About Me Tag!

Me: HEYYY GUYS, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN!? :D
You Guys: How have you been? More like WHERE have YOU been!
Me: ...What?
You Guys: YOU HAVEN'T POSTED FOR, LIKE, A WEEK AND A HALF SWIRL!
Me: Oh, uh, yeah, about that-
You Guys: NO
Me: I-
You Guys: SHUSHHHHH
Me: But I-
You Guys: NO EXCUSES
Me: ...
You Guys: Just go ahead and post.



XD! Random intro for ya there!


Anyways, I truly apologize for not posting lately! I've had a lot of homework and tests to study for, so that's been taking up a lot of my nights! D:

But I'm here now, and today, I'm going to be doing a tag that Gracie tagged me in- the "15 Random Stuff About Me" tag! So... here's 15 things about me that you guys may not know yet (or maybe you do, XD)!



1. I love the night.
It's just so quiet and pretty! 😅 If it wasn't for all the bugs outside, I would definitely spend a lot more time out in the night- especially now, in the fall, when the nights are cooler!
Thanks a lot bugs. 😒 XD!


2. My mind is filled with animation ideas.
If I find a good song, I always come up with an animation inside my head for it. I can tell it's a REALLY good song if I think of an idea almost immediately, although I expand on it the more I hear the song! That's one of the reasons Owl City is so amazing- the imagery really helps me put together little shows in my head!
I want to learn how to animate soon- I have so many ideas! XD!


3. I hate it if my friends argue.
Sounds pretty normal, but honestly, even if it's just a disagreement, I tend to worry. I try to be the peacekeeper between people, so that there aren't any people hurt, physically OR emotionally. I don't want my groups of friends to split up, so I guess that's my biggest fear with that.
This is only if it's a legitimate argument, though- if it's a just subtle, joking thing, I don't mind at all, as long as it doesn't get out of hand!


4. I feel like I have a special connection to water.
If I could choose an element to have the powers of, I would definitely choose water. I don't know why, but I just feel like water is really powerful to me- it can be powerful, gentle, swift, slow... just about anything! I like to imagine it swirling around things gracefully, and I also come up with a lot of names for characters that have to do with water- for example, Rain, Ripple, Splash, and Wavesong. The sound of water, whether it's a stream, a fountain, or rain, has always been relaxing to me as well. :)


5. I'm trying to teach myself how to play some things on piano... on ROBLOX.
Okay, let me explain! I'm already learning guitar, but I love piano as well (plus, a lot of Owl City/Sky Sailing songs can be played on piano, hehe)! But my family won't pay for piano lessons while I'm doing guitar, and I don't have enough time for that anyway. 
So instead, I found a game on ROBLOX with a little piano, and you use the keyboard to play the notes! It sounds like an amateur piano, and it probably is, to be honest, but I've actually figured out a few of the melodies to some Blixemi (a YouTuber who makes original warrior cats-related songs) songs! I'm hoping to learn more when I've got the time! :D


6. I seem to be growing away from having birthday parties IRL.
On Animal Jam, I really look forward to hosting a party and seeing you guys there! But this year, I didn't even have a party IRL- partly because we were going to be planning it so late, and partly because... well, I didn't feel like I NEEDED to have one. Normally I can't wait to host a birthday party, but I guess I'm growing away from it or something.
It could also be because I'm afraid of how my different groups of friends will react to each other, and how they'll react in front of my parents. Most of them seem to know and like each other already, but I just worry about things going wrong (have you noticed how much I worry? It's a problem, XD).


7. I REALLY want to be homeschooled.
If it wasn't for my few friends I have at school (although, to be honest, they could survive without me), and the fact that my parents really don't know how to teach all the subjects we're learning about it public school, I'd switch to homeschooling in a heartbeat. However, I'd also miss doing choir- even if there are people I don't particularly like in my choir class, I still think my choir classes are/were the closest you can get to a family at our public school!
Honestly, though, homeschooling sounds so nice- you work at your own pace, you don't necessarily have to learn things you'll never EVER use, you can sleep in, and there are a lot less tests and homework assignments! Sounds like my cup of tea, hehe!


8. I can't stand it if I get a grade lower than a 90 on a report card.
Yeah... so, if you didn't already know about this, grades are EVERYTHING to me. I don't know why I care so much about them- one B won't keep me from getting a good job or anything- but I just do. Maybe I want the people who see my report cards to be really impressed so I get a special honor- I really have no idea why I can't let grades be grades.
I kid you not, even 89s are unacceptable in my odd mind. I got an 89 on a CA test we took in math a few days ago, and even though I actually didn't do bad at all (I missed two questions out of 18, and one was a stupid mistake), I'm still hoping that grade can be raised by one point, or not put on my report card at all. 
Sounds really weird, but that's my brain for you (once again, I worry A LOT).


9. If someone asks me to choose a number off the top of my head, I almost always say 87.
I don't know why, but my mind immediately goes to that number. It's not special to me in any way- it's not even one of my favorites (that's 8 and 95, hehe), but I think of it anyway.


10. Coyotes are now one of my favorite animals on AJ.
They're just so CUTE, and I love their animations, especially the running and dancing ones! I think they're in my top 3 favorite AJ animals, along with deer and tigers!


11. I love almost anything that involves bread.
I'm telling you, bread is my life! Breadsticks, garlic bread, toast, bread rolls- they're all so delicious to me! :D


12. I live to make people happy.
Ever wonder why I choose to make so many random drawings for you guys? If I'm bored, I tend to constantly think, "Hey, why not make a drawing for one of my friends?" Not just because I want to draw, but because I just feel like making someone happy. I hate it when my friends are sad- I'll do almost anything to cheer them up- and I love making someone's day by giving them something of mine! :D


13. I'm obsessed with making Pixlr graphics.
Ever since Lost showed me how to make them (thanks again Lost!), I've been constantly taking picture of pets on Chicken Smoothie, or things on AJ, with solid backgrounds and making them into Pixlr graphics.
What will I use all these graphics for? I honestly have no idea- but I'll think of something one of these days! XD!


14. My old main look used to look like this.
The only different thing is that I had a Rare Glove that was yellow-ish, not pink. But other than that, this recent picture is spot-on. I don't know how on earth I thought of this- it doesn't go together AT ALL! Man, I sure am glad that look evolved into my wizard wolf! :D


15. I imagine my life as a story.
Now, this is something I didn't ever really expect to tell anyone, but it seemed like something interesting to put in the tag.
Anyways, yeah, I tend to narrate things inside my head if I've got nothing better to think about. I basically put my life in book form. I don't know why, and it's actually really, really weird, but I dunno- maybe it's from all the books I've read, XD!




And there you have it! 15 random little facts about me! :D
I hope you all enjoyed this post- and don't worry, there will be a new post up in a couple of days (What's it about? I'll give you a hint- it's a story!) for you guys to read! Until then, remember to PARTY HARD, BE KIND, and JAM ON, guys! :D

Some Pictures of Stuff

You Guys: Swirl, what kind of title is that?
Me: Well, it's true! This post DOES have pictures of stuff!
You Guys: But THAT was the best you could come up with?
Me: Fine! YOU guys make the title!
You Guys: O.O
Me: What?
You Guys: Are you trying to make US do all the work?
Me: FINEEEE! I'll just keep the title.
You Guys: But-
Me: SHUSHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!


Okay, that intro was a little... er... odd. XD!


ANYWHOO...



Yes, the title, and the... interesting intro, are true! This post is basically going to be a jumble of pictures I took!
(Haha, Lost, get it? Because your blog is the Animal Jam JUMBLE, and...
Okay, I'll stop now. XD!)

So anyways, let's get started with the postttt! :P


Look! I got lil' Sharpjinx (what an unfortunate name, poor Sharpjinx, XD) off of eBay, and he finally came in the mail a couple days ago!
I paid 27 dollars for him.
Don't question my choice. XDD!
He also came with the code for the Alpha Armor, which is why I bought him! I LOVE THE ALPHA ARMORRRR!
Ahh, it looks SO COOL ON CHEETAHS!!!

It also gave me a Rare Eclipse Watch, which I didn't expect to get, and 5 diamonds!

So yay! XD!


 Next up, a reference picture of King Ekon, mainly for Lost! It took me quite a while- what do you guys think of it?
Oh! By the way, if anyone's wondering where his legs are, I drew him in a sitting pose, so you can't see the legs in this picture! But they're the same color as his foot!


 Next, since I know you wanted to see it, Gracie, here's my bandana I got at camp, signed by Micah Tyler! He's been coming to the camp I go to for the past couple years, and this time, I went up an got his autograph! :D


A cute little sleeping kitty statue I got from my friend in 6th grade. It sits on my nightstand now. :D Hehe, I remember a girl in my science class being TERRIFIED of it because of how real it looks! Someone threw it at her (without my command, nuuuu my poor kittyyy, lol), and she actually screamed and jumped up! XDD!




Now onto some AJ things!

So... uh... the Chamber got a bit glitchy when I spawned into it. AJ, that stuff's supposed be down at the bottom of the screen! XD!


I don't know if this is happening to everyone now, but I once walked into the Adventure Base Camp, went down here, and the trees disappeared.
There are also random patches of grass, which kept disappearing and reappearing, depending on where I moved!


Um...
Oh my.
This owl's having a bit of trouble with its makeup or something. XDD!


Well... apparently my firefly can follow me into the ocean!


And this person was a blue wolf.
I think they were just saying to get attention, since that "Mira's daughter" claim is kinda a known thing now, but it was still pretty funny!


AND finally, a super-huge lemur Necklace! Man, that pendant is the size of the lemur's eye! XD!
Bigger than its paws, too! I'm surprised lemurs don't topple over wearing this!







Well, that's all for now, everyone! I better get to work on my Masterpiece I've been working on- don't have too much computer time left! So, as always, remember to PARTY HARD, BE KIND, and JAM ON, guys!

The Secrets Of The Forgotten Archive!

Heyo guys! 
Yes, in case you were wondering, I AM alive. I'm so sorry- I haven't posted for, like, a week, and you all are probably thinking "Oh, maybe Swirl is getting too busy to post anymore". 
Okay... yes, I HAVE been busy lately, and I've had a lot of homework that I end up doing later than I want to, but I'm hoping to work all that out so that I have more time on the computer! So don't worry- hopefully, I'll be getting back on track again after this week! 
I seriously need to stop procrastinating, XD!





Anywho, I'm aware that this post is a little late by now, but I've been wanting to do it for a while, and I really didn't want to ditch the idea! So, today, I'll be sharing a few theories and secrets that I created/found interesting about the newest room in AJ, the Forgotten Archive! Let's get started! :D

First off, when you first enter the room and go to the left a bit, you'll see light filtering through some kind of hole that can't be seen, deep back in the rocks.
Now, you may be thinking, "Swirl, that's literally the entrance to the room!"
But it's not. THIS is the entrance!
So that means that there's ANOTHER opening somewhere back in the rocks that the light is shining through! I wonder what that opening leads to. A different land in Jamaa? Another place in the Temple of Zios? Maybe it even leads to a new secret land!
I feel like this little place will be used for something- perhaps an adventure- but who knows?

Next, down the stairs, there's a desk in the center of the room, complete with a Zios-statue thingy on top. If you click the big book, this message pops up:
 Not much of a surprise there- we all know Mira and Zios watch over the land of Jamaa.
Then, if you click the scrolls behind the statue-thingy, this excerpt pops up:
I swear the picture was different before, but idk, maybe I imagined it...
Remaining animals? Does that mean that something wiped out or drove out some species? 
In the picture, it shows a bunny, a wolf, and a monkey- 3 of the animals available in the BETA testing period. Hm... if we tie Jamaa's history to the BETA here... maybe the "remaining animals" were the ones used in the testing period, and several other species fled or were wiped out. I also wonder if some of those species have returned to Jamaa already.
Hehe! Hey, now that I think about it, this little message could work with my Aspen Island story! After all, all those animals on the island had to come from SOMEWHERE, right?

Then, if you go past the portals (the wonderful, wonderful portals... XD) and up another set of stairs, you can click on a little "paint" set, and see another message.
 Past mistakes? Hm... well, the picture DOES show the Mira statue in Jamaa Township, so I'm guessing that Mira said/wrote this. Maybe that mistake was creating the phantoms?
Or what if she did something else no one knows about just yet?
*Plays mysterious music*
XD!

Then, if you click the odd, blue, shining shapes on the wall nearby...
... you get this message:
We've found out that the "ancient lines of power" run through Jamaa Township, or they are at the moment. But has anyone noticed how similar these designs look to the designs on the Greely's Hideout den's floor?
See? They must have SOME kind of connection!
And apparently, these lines "can be drawn upon for a darker purpose". Could that mean the phantoms could use these lines as an advantage somehow? Or maybe, if a certain animal wanted the power to themselves, the magic in the lines could corrupt them and turn them evil?
Man, I have so many ideas running through my brain at the moment! XD!

And FINALLY, clicking on the book with the large Z in it, and a picture of Zios, gives you this note:
Man... Zios can predict the FUTUREEE or something! XD!
 Either that, or he put some kind of spell over the archive to keep it invisible, allowing it to wear off at a particular time.
Okay... I'm sorry... I know that's probably a picture of an eclipse... but who else here sees a phantom?
I'm telling you! Look- I edited it to show what I mean!
I was too lazy to fill in the little lines, and plus, it looks cooler this way anyway. XD!
SEE? That bump-thing in the center looks like the pupil, and the rays of the sun look like phantom legs!
Okay, so the ones on the left and right are kinda too thick... but maybe it's a new kind of phantom or something!
Yeah... it's most likely NOT a phantom, but that's all I see when I look at this picture!
Anyways, getting back on topic here, Zios says that, when the eclipse has passed and the archive reopens, the "next chapter" of... someone's story will begin. 
I do wonder who he's referring to with the word "our". Like, is he including himself, or is he saying our as in Jamaa in general? I dunno.
But I guess this proves that Zios probably never was dead in the first place! I mean, he would've needed to be alive to write all this, right? XD!
Hmm... I wonder if there will be some adventures featuring him or traces of him in the future! Now that'd be cool!



Well guys, that's all I've got for now! I hope you all liked these theory-thingies! Now that Julian2 has left the AJ community (yes, he did quit), I suppose I'll have to make up some conspiracies by myself, hehe! 
Guess that also means all those glitch pictures I wanted to send to him for his videos can't be used for too much anymore. Oh well! Maybe I'll put them in a series of posts sometime soon! :)
Oh, and if you have any theories you want to share, you can put them in the comments below!
Until my next post, please remember to PARTY HARD, STAY SAFE, and JAM ON, guys!
