My theory about the origins of the sculk and the Warden

Ok, this is going to be a REALLY long one, and one I've been thinking about for a really long time, so I'll appreciate to see what you guys think!

The sculk

First of all, what is the sculk? Well looking at it surface wise, it would seem to be a living creature, much like a slime mold, that spawns a warden when disturbed. But why's that? Well we'll need to go a lot further back from when it emerged from the portal.

It's Origins

I theorise, based on the new concept art we've recieved for the dimension, that it is a rather cheerful looking place, or at least, a lot safer than what the sculk is. So the ancient builders found out about this and attempted to go there. But in a stroke of really bad luck, they ended up spawning in sculk. Now I believe this sculk was far more intelligent owing to it being larger, but still in it's dimension, not an apex predator. Let me explain. Any way, it is said in some religions, I believe that(paraphrase): "The evil dead among you screams as he is brought into the grave, but you cannot hear him. If you could, your ear drums would have been ruptured right there and then". But the question then arises;

  1. Why not use it's nervous system rather than transferring it by sound?
  2. WHAT was the predator?

Firstly, sound would be much faster than the nervous system, and works much better, in a case such as a block of sculk being consumed immediately before sending a warning out

The predator, I believe, is the sifter. Which shares a resembelence with the Great Hunger, was a mob which consumed mobs, items, and blocks alike. Keyword, MOBS. And what would be a nutritious source of food? The sculk.(I'll explain that afterwards too.)

Sifters in their natural habitat

From this, we may also assume Sifters have exceptionally good hearing which the sculk exploited to drive them away from it.

"But how does the sculk even hunt?", you may be asking. Well, I'd say it is somewhat akin to a Venus flytrap, except it produces skinwalkers instead of a sweet substance(I am of course referring to the original sculk for the time being, Jerry is completely different from the original). I'll explain that.

Have you ever looked at the warden? Or the sculk shrieker? Apart from having souls inside them, for the shrieking, they have also have BONE. How Jerry forms the Warden, is through the dead matter it has collected of other mobs and forming them together to make a warden, or a sculk shrieker, so we may assume the OG does something similar, except, due to being more intelligent, did this for the purpose of mimicking other mobs and luring them to their death, collecting their souls, flesh, and bones in the process, and analysing their DNA. This is also why sculk is a good source of XP, and nutrition for the sifters.

Back to the Ancient builders entering the portal.

The second they came in, and spawned in a field of sculk, the OG sculk did not attack them immediately. Of course it had no idea what they even were, or they were even THERE. The ancient builders became curious, and started brining back stuff from there, like the Sculk Sensor we see in the laboratory. But I don't think they brought back a catalyst and accidentally caused too much too spawn, no, I'll explain why later. The sculk eventually got curious and then randomly one day, exerted a lot of sculk matter into exploring the portal, and whilst doing so, somehow managed to kill some ancient builders, and some axolotols (we have proof the Ancient builders experimented with them through regeneration potions), before the ancient builders managed to close the portal shut, creating Jerry.

Why Jerry is different.

Contrary to a regular sculk simply spread through a catalyst, which literally has no thoughts or memories whatsoever, Jerry does. How? Well what would the OG sculk be thinking about whilst doing the portal breach?

Watch out for predators(natural instinct+sculk shrieker and sensor spawn necessary)

Analyse collected samples (DNA extraction knowledge needed)

Advance.

When they cut off the portal, all of these traits were ingrained into Jerry, he had Ancient Builder and Axolotol DNA for analysis, the knowledge for it, it's goal, but still a fear of predators.

But due to the fact it NEEDED to progress in catching things, it decided to fire a shrieker 3 times, and if the creature doesn't go away, or stop moving, that creature is a new specimen.

Of course this led to the creation of the Warden. Think about it, Jerry thought "Theses tendrils are good for catching sound" "Being bipedal is faster", keep in mind, he had no memory of prior experience with creature suitability, so which is why the Warden is handicapped in a few ways, for example, walking on 2 legs when it would be clearly faster on 4, using hearing instead of echolocation, being distracted by literally anything, having a mouth but not really using it, a bruteforcer rather than an intelligent stalker, decimating samples so they are not easily examinable(my theory on why none of Jerry's creatures have eyes) Of course the Warden has no idea what it's doing, but it's wired to be angry at any living creature.

But these things are changing, and Minecraft dungeons 2 has revealed it.

Examples being the Mourner, and the twisted Warden.

The mourner seems to have the ability to use echolocation, as seen by it's varied sound.

And Jerry seems to have realised, the world is much bigger than he thinks, and there is no way he could spread that far, so he made the Twisted warden. A massive version of the warden, that can consume entities whole, making DNA extraction and organ examination much more efficient, and Jerry assumes, as provided by the OG sculk, that more varied DNA will lead to more breakthroughs, and unlike the OG sculk, who was simply curious, Jerry now has it ingrained in him to advance, and not stop.

Jerry also seems to have learnt how to manipulate souls to other mobs, as seen in the trailer, and make them extremely resistant. This could explain why the Warden is so tanky, much more tanky then you can imagine, even with regeneration.

Prologue

I feel like I missed something out, so feel free to ask anything in the comments! Also let me know what you think of this theory!

WAIT, this was a hint!

If you look try to turn on the drop in bedrock edition, you get this!:

It's right under Villager Trade Rebalancing!

I lack pixel budget.

Interesting large sulfur Cave

At spawn, also in a deep lake, extends all the way to bedrock. There are 2 villages right next to each other above it.

ConfigError: The project 'name-name' is not a valid java project.

Could anyone kindly help with this?

(Yes, I am an amateur, and no, that is not the actual project name, but it is it's format)

Thanks in advance!

(This is while attempting to do a test run on the fabric mod-template, and I have ran the VScode gradle task in advance)

What can I do to improve my skin?

If anyone needs anymore shots, I'll be happy to do so! What do you guys think I should add to this?

Dolphins should be able to play with sulfur cubes

I think dolphins should be able to play with sulfur cubes, the ones that have blocks inside of them at least, and perhaps limit it to the bouncy archetypes, and maybe taking it a step further, allow dolphins to examine other archetypes, and get bored of them for instance the heavy archetypes, or stay away from them, like the magma archetype.

It would make a minecraft world a lot more lively and it corresponds with a real life dolphin interaction to this kind of thing.

They did add the interaction between Iron golems and Copper golems, so this might not be that far off, although slightly more complex.

What do you guys think?
