The EXTRA lore behind Terraria

well in my last video I covered all of the official Terraria lore there are still some other pieces of lore that play a major part in the main story which are either heavily implied in the game or are a contradiction of what the developers and lore boats say that's why in today's video I'll be going over all of the extra parts of terraria's lore firstly let's cover the extra Terraria lore that is Canon but doesn't play a big part of the story so I didn't include them in the last video for time's sake starting with the bosses besides the ones that were a part of Cthulhu a good number of the bosses have their own little tidbit of lore not all of the bosses have lore but the ones that do either have that information on their Wiki page or in the bestiary starting with King's slime it's actually a group of slimes who have happened to mix together and the person inside of it is a person who failed their battle with it the same goes for Queen slime as well but instead of normal slimes it was Hollow slimes who mixed together next Plantera is another guardian of the world like the wall of flesh but it is the Flora Guardian instead and is awoken by The Fallout of cthulhu's plants after that we have Golem who is made by the race of lizards to protect the jungle temple and for the last boss I could find loron we have the Empress of light who is another Guardian set on destroying any impurities in the world and is summoned after it deems you to be one after hurting a lace Wing which is why she summoned after that next let's go over some stuff that isn't outright stated anywhere but is either heavily implied or is just a popular Theory starting with the guide while the lore States he's a part of a group named the order of the guides who passes knowledge down to one another to keep important information around through multiple Generations it doesn't exactly State how that's done or what the guides actually are which is why some people think the guides are actually the Wall of Flesh the idea is that once you can summon the wall of flesh you no longer need a guide to help you protect the world so using the voodoo doll will show the guide's true form as the Wall of Flesh lastly let's go over the lore that contradicts itself between messages from developers and the official lore which I covered in my last video the biggest contradiction is easily what the lunatic cultists are actually doing while in the official lore it states that they are trying to re-summon Moon Lord messages made by the creator of Terraria red state that they are actually trying to stop moonlord from coming to your world meaning you are the bad guy and actually cause Moon Lord to come back this idea makes sense as the event does start after defeating the lunatic cultist but with the in-game bestiary and official lore stating otherwise I'll leave it up to you to decide other than that another contradiction that's well known is the one that says moonlord is actually cthulhu's brother this is because over the years this is what the developers have said online along with moonlord's actual name being Steve but that doesn't seem to be the case like I said in my last video this is a gray area since the lore doesn't outright talk about Moon Lord but does say the cultists were trying to re-summon Cthulhu so I'll leave it to you again to decide if they actually finished their goal or summoned his brother by accident and to end this section off red also stated on Discord that the guide is the brother of the Ninja inside of King Slime which would finally give him a backstory to some degree that wraps up my video on the extra lore of Terraria while I'm sure I missed something as it's hard to find out everything this video and my last video covers the majority of Terraria lore out there if you made it this far to the video be sure to let me know by commenting cthulhu's brother and let me know if there's anything you think I missed thanks for sticking to the end and as always make sure to have a wonderful day
