Yeah, you kind of are the bad guy in this situation, You come in, kill them all, then destroy their God for no real good reason, I have trouble seeing us as the good guy in that scenario
My head cannon for the Dryad turning into a tree is her returning as one with nature. Not necessarily "passing on" as in dying, but in a way where she can finally rest after all that has happened. I think she was more so created by the world to help protect the world with the other Dryads.
Well, going off what I know as a Mythology nerd, Dryads are Ancient Greek tree spirits. Originally, the Hamadryad was only tied to the Oak tree but later the term Dryad referred to all trees. Sub-species as an example were the Daphnaie, spirits of Laurel trees, and Caryatids, spirits of Walnut trees. Acorns are the "fruit" of the Oak tree, and while all Terrarian trees drop acorns for reproductive purposes, there are two types of Giant "Living" Tree, the Mahogany, and the unnamed regular tree. Why are they "Living Wood" trees? What if they're the old Dryads who perished? Why do they contain treasure chests? It was everything they were carrying upon death, sort of like a little sarcophagus. My theory suggests that the Dryad has transformed into a Giant Living Oak shrub and will grow into a new Livingwood Tree, but one that will not stop growing and will bear Dryad acorns that will sprout new Dryads for the future. Worth noting that Living Leaf blocks don't drop acorns. I kinda want to add that the Mod of Redemption now has a Forest Nymph NPC, and she mentions that she wants someplace made of living wood with a pool of water, her housing requirements specify as such. It is so she can sink her roots into the ground and "blossom", and when she starts "blossoming", she won't hesitate to kill anyone, even the other NPCs, in order to defend her young. The Terrarian Dryad's reproduction would be a less violent form of this cycle. It also implies that even if the Dryads are "dead", destroying Living Trees is desecrating their graves, and that if you build a house out of Living Wood and Leaf Blocks for your Dryad, it's no different than using Flesh and Bone blocks as a housing for the human NPCs. Also has creepy implications about that Forest Nymph, feeding on dead Dryads to reproduce....
One thing that a dev green lit for accepted lore via a tweet: Witch Doctor is deathly allergic to bees. This is why that NPC isn't around until after you kill the Queen Bee.
im talkin actual graphix. moonlord isnt actually cthuhlu its kinda like a shell. he would look different and be associated with water attacks@@DukeCultron
probably a case of "not enough numbers" if I were to take a guess. They never said exactly how plentiful they were in number, only that there was just one survivor. They might've been able to dismantle him, but got wiped out by a successful last ditch effort from Cthulu's part before they were capable of landing the final blow.
I like to imagine the Truffle and Clothier have a bit of a Tom and Jerry type thing going on. Endlessly chasing each other and only occasionally getting a break from one another
7:12 I suspect the dryad was a tree up until the eye is defeated, hence why she's never been found, she was hiding in plain sight, or more accurately lying dormant waiting for the player and now that they're either gone or the planet no longer needs saving, she returns to a dormant state. Perhaps like an actual tree she needs to produce seeds to plant more dryads for future generations to protect the world from further threats, since relying on a single all powerful hero for long isn't exactly wise in the off chance they turn evil.
@@youwantmyname9208 Some trees such as some species of pine need fire for the seeds to "activate" so he was wondering if you need to burn the Dryad to have her seeds grow at least that's what I'm assuming
ive always thought the remaining dryads turned into the living trees we see in our worlds hence why theyre different to the other trees everywhere else and the dryad is eventually going to become another living tree
The Clothier gets a good ending. He finally realizes his greatest wish to eat the Truffle, and even if imprisoned, he's still happy. After all, he likes the Cave biome as he is already used to the Dungeon lifestyle, it was the curse that made him miserable.
The Dryad is the last of her kind, and we've been cutting trees all these years. I might just feel differently the next time I have to collect more wood.
According to what she turned into, it might be relatively easy to recognize a Dryad tree. Though quite possibly not, as it could grow until their shape is unrecognizable to that of a normal tree. Maybe you could grow your own trees via buying them off the Dryad while they’re present, in order to avert murdering an ancient Dryad. You can find crafting tables in hell, and also mine wood for the torches of a furnace from underground houses.
@@kingofgrim4761 That wouldn’t be the case if the living trees existed when there was only one Dryad left. But if that could possibly be due to how only one was SEEN remaining. If so, then that WOULD explain why they’re *Living* trees.
@@staringgasmask that also just so happens to be the true form of a normal looking dude who fell victim to a curse. What is it with curses in Terraria? You have the homeless guy outside the local haunted prison, cursed to be a disembodied skeleton head with two floating arms, you have the Zoologist, bitten by a fox and turned into a furry by some kind of lycanthropic curse the animal was carrying, the Golfer somehow gets lycanthropy from being immersed in some shiny pink liquid, and then you have the Guide, who is cursed to turn into a giant monster made of raw steak whenever he's burned to death. Then you have a seemingly endless number of werewolves who descend upon the world once the WoF is slain, vampires during a solar eclipse, etc. Curses upon curses, upon even more curses!
The credits are absolutely perfect, except for the fact the Stylist doesn’t get a segment! Like why out of all the NPCs is she excluded? Chippy lowkey needs to ask Red why she’s left out.
5:15 I think this depends on your playthrough completion, if you at any point before or after the moonlord (assuming the credits take place in a distant future once the player returns to wherever they came or disappears into nothing or whatever.) kill duke fishron in that world, the angler doesn't catch anything and was pranking the captain, otherwise.... R.I.P Pirate Captain. R.I.A Angler.
I highly doubt the angler was ever intending to actually use the truffle worm as bait. Seeing his usual personality, I'm pretty sure he's just being an ass and trying to freak the pirate captain out. He knows EXACTLY what that worm does. Look at how he's laughing as he makes his exit.
I think that when the dryad turns into a tree, it’s symbolizing how she has done what she set out to do, which is bring peace to Terraria. Now that she has succeeded with a little help from the Terrarian (the player), she can finally rest once more, and be one with nature again, as the Moon Lord has been terminated once and for all. Side note: The Clothier chuckling as he’s chasing the Truffle leads me to believe that he was just messing with the Truffle, so I think it’s a good ending for both of them (as long as the Truffle can forgive him).
yeah i always picked crimson over corruption because it feels like an actual blistering wound inflicted on the world instead of purple zombie magic goop

I want to see these lores continued/expanded/revisited in Terraria 2~ Imagine a village of lizardmen~ Imagine a Truffle Village with dialogues peraining to he Terror of the REDCAP [not a red cap mushroom]
If I had to build a theory about it, I'd say the clothier's ending my hint at how he got cursed: by eating something he shouldn't have. The most likely cursed food that he could find would probably be from the many parts of Cthulhu, but there's several things in Terraria that shouldn't put in someone's mouth. Yummy?
@@earthconqueror Someone: “Yo, what are you eating? How is it?” Clothier: “Cultist. Not as deep a flavor as I anticipated. Also, very crunchy.” Someone Else: “Those are PEOPLE, man! That was a guy in a cult! You’re so gonna get cursed!” Clothier: “The pursuit of thrilling flavor is - wait, I don’t feel great. My vision is going a cloudy and mysterious blue. Such a tasty looking… color… I must go to the dungeon.”
I think some of the scenes in the credits aren't exactly an ending but a show of daily lifes in the world of terraria after defeating the moonlord. Its like the very ending was actually is that they get back to a wonderful peace and joyous life.
I'd interpret the dryad turning into a tree as the quote, "from dust we came, and to dust we shall return". *"She"* finally achieved what her ancestors could not do, she fulfilled her destiny and nature is forever in harmony, so now she can rest and rejoin her ancestors.
5:47 i think in a dialogue he mentioned that someone asked him for a hand and never got it back and this credit animation shows him finding a hand replacement
i think the dryad turning into a tree is sort of like passing on, but in a way to revitalize the species. i mean it's sort of a plant, so maybe it ends up having seeds?
I wonder if any of this lore could make it’s way into a potential terraria 2. My favourite idea of mine is that you spawn by the dryad tree, and it can’t be moved, set as your spawn point (until you reach a high enough power to move it or something)
More than anything this makes me hyped for the possibility of terraria 2. Having Cthulhu as a final boss would be epic, having friendly Lhizards, and other possible continuations of current plot would be awesome
I think they are just going to continue making updates for the next game. If they did a gofundme for terraria 2, that would get a high amount of funding.
My head canon for the Dryad is after defeating the moon lord her job is finished so she turns into a tree, sleeping waiting for the time when she is needed once again.
Pirate being a good man and trying to warn the naive Angler of great dangers in the seas. I guess that's how he lost his crew and ship, someone tried fishing up food for the crew, with a Truffle Worm of all things... oof..
Personally, I see the dryads ending as her finally getting some well deserved rest. Making all that purification solution isn't easy, no doubt, so she's just getting a proper day of traditional dryad sleep
5:01 the angler is a prankster. In a lot of quests he mentions putting fish in peoples dressers and stuff. I bet he showed the captain the truffle worm to mess with him.
This was really interesting! I think it also gives hints for what could come if Re-Logic's next game is Terraria 2. Maybe a few decades or centuries down the road, Cthulu is rebuilt and it's up to a new hero to take them down. Could even have the Dryad awaken from her tree form to aid the player. Perhaps it's a quest to find her people who were only thought to be killed, but had in fact gone to another planet?
I personally believe that Dryads were born from a Tree like an Apple for example, so when Dryad turned into a Tree she might give fruit of life to repopulate the race. I think it's reasonable and sweet
Terraria's lore is really goofy - The official lore says the Cultist is trying to summon Moon Lord, but sometimes he's trying to stop him - Skeletron is supposed to be ML's skeleton but has a glaring lack of eye sockets - There's only one Skeletron/Old Man, one WoF, and one Dryad which leads me to believe that all the NPCs are the same person when they respawn - Red said that ML is *_the_* Guide's father. That's right, *_the_* Guide. As in the one we had the entire time
I mean, a lot of it is just jokes that aren't meant to be taken seriously at all (not that the regular lore is particularly serious either), especially the one about the moon lord being the guide's father. Iirc, red also said the nymph/lost girl is the guide's grandmother, and the groom and bride zombies are the angler's parents. And regarding NPC respawning, the guide might be the only one who "canonically" dies in the story, because only his death is required to progress in the game. So perhaps the guide is the only npc there are multiples of
I tried to avoid the ending of terraria in each playthrough cus I didn’t want to end the magic it had in my eyes but after years upon years of playing I finally brought myself to the end of terraria and cheesy as it sounds this interpretation really brought back memories of past playthroughs with friends and alone and it genuinely brought a tear to my eye
My interpretation of the dryad is that she became a Tree that would later sprout to a Living wood tree. Despite being the last of her descendant, she can die in game, but I think she reincarnates from other Living wood trees inside the Living wood rooms. The reason she is "The last of her kind" is because there can only be one Dryad at a time in a world. I think the Dryad would return, but her becoming a Tree that would later morph into a gigantic living wood is nice.
no, she's the last of her kind as it is written that all the other dryads were wiped out with her as the sole survivor when they joined forces together against Cthulhu
Clothier might have PTSD after being cursed for so long and truffle mushrooms are his coping drug. In the ending he goes mad because of the drug abuse and eats the Truffle. Funny game!
I dont think the tavernkeep gets a happy ending, if you go into some spider biomes you can find what appears to be the tavernkeep's corpse covered in webs
You should actually do a sort of reaction / analysis on Rational Gamers’ own lore videos. The story he crafted is underrated, and better than what relogic put together in my opinion. He’s also fairly underrated within the terraria community from my experience.
I personally believe that the Guide and the Zoologist are in love so I always make sure to house them together in a way that allows them to interact. It just makes me happy. The Guide's story is rather sad to me and he specifically likes the Zoologist, so since 1.4 I've housed them together in every single playthrough.
@@jhnb4_real The zoologist, being an animal lover, is probably like "cool, a lizard man!" Also if I were to guess, the Witch Doctor was probably the one who lifted her curse. Undoing lycanthropy seems to be a witch doctor thing to me, since witch doctors were tribal healers who specialized in using traditional medicine and 'cunning practices' to treat diseases believed to be caused by witchcraft. He just has to brew up some of that oo-ee-oo-aa-aa ting-tang wallawalla-bingbang and that curse is as good as done.
I’m pretty sure truffle is canonically a hallucinogenic mushroom. In one of his lines of dialogue he mentions that he wondered why everyone was trying to eat him so he tasted himself, and then everything started glowing blue.
I think the dryad ending has nothing to do with her passing on but more she's gone back to resting basically becoming one with nature until she is needed again and she will probably be back in terraria 2
The dryad could be acting as a catalyst for a new population of dryads the threat is finally gone and you have an immortal champion watching over the place so I don't see why not bring your race back from extinction basically.
My head Cannon is the Dryad turned into one of those massive trees you can find naturally. There used to be more Dryads, maybe all of those trees used to be one too...
I honestly belive that some of these are actually just slice of life and not actual endings for the characters. Clothier and Truffle have a Tom and Jerry thing going on Arms Dealer and Demolitionist have petty arguments often Cyborg has a maintenance routine every so often Dryad meditates/hybernates and becomes part of nature every once in a while the guide gets eaten by zombies and subsequently replaced sometimes Zoologist's curse has been lifted and the golfer is just passing time with her and her pets The Pirate adopted the Angler and that's just what happened one day

Well, going off what I know as a Mythology nerd, Dryads are Ancient Greek tree spirits. Originally, the Hamadryad was only tied to the Oak tree but later the term Dryad referred to all trees. Sub-species as an example were the Daphnaie, spirits of Laurel trees, and Caryatids, spirits of Walnut trees. Acorns are the "fruit" of the Oak tree, and while all Terrarian trees drop acorns for reproductive purposes, there are two types of Giant "Living" Tree, the Mahogany, and the unnamed regular tree. Why are they "Living Wood" trees? What if they're the old Dryads who perished? Why do they contain treasure chests? It was everything they were carrying upon death, sort of like a little sarcophagus.
My theory suggests that the Dryad has transformed into a Giant Living Oak shrub and will grow into a new Livingwood Tree, but one that will not stop growing and will bear Dryad acorns that will sprout new Dryads for the future. Worth noting that Living Leaf blocks don't drop acorns.
I kinda want to add that the Mod of Redemption now has a Forest Nymph NPC, and she mentions that she wants someplace made of living wood with a pool of water, her housing requirements specify as such.

The clothier should return in that game but in those mushroom villages hiding somewhere.
If I had to build a theory about it, I'd say the clothier's ending my hint at how he got cursed: by eating something he shouldn't have. The most likely cursed food that he could find would probably be from the many parts of Cthulhu, but there's several things in Terraria that shouldn't put in someone's mouth. Yummy?
Ehhhh it's probably the cultist since the cultist owns the dungeons
@@earthconqueror Someone: “Yo, what are you eating? How is it?”
Clothier: “Cultist. Not as deep a flavor as I anticipated. Also, very crunchy.”
Someone Else: “Those are PEOPLE, man! That was a guy in a cult! You’re so gonna get cursed!”
Clothier: “The pursuit of thrilling flavor is - wait, I don’t feel great. My vision is going a cloudy and mysterious blue. Such a tasty looking… color… I must go to the dungeon.”
@@TinyTikiTree i mean cultist was the one who put curse on clother
I think some of the scenes in the credits aren't exactly an ending but a show of daily lifes in the world of terraria after defeating the moonlord. Its like the very ending was actually is that they get back to a wonderful peace and joyous life.
I'd interpret the dryad turning into a tree as the quote, "from dust we came, and to dust we shall return".
*"She"* finally achieved what her ancestors could not do, she fulfilled her destiny and nature is forever in harmony, so now she can rest and rejoin her ancestors.
This is a nice lovely video, I haven't though about those end credit animations that much. Good to see them passed over with some lore context
5:47 i think in a dialogue he mentioned that someone asked him for a hand and never got it back and this credit animation shows him finding a hand replacement
i think the dryad turning into a tree is sort of like passing on, but in a way to revitalize the species. i mean
it's sort of a plant, so maybe it ends up having seeds?
I can't look at an acorn the same way again
5:46 The curse was from a Corrupt or Crimson fox, the shimmer I'm assuming is dependant on some other factors than those...
Relogic where my fox critters
I wonder if any of this lore could make it’s way into a potential terraria 2. My favourite idea of mine is that you spawn by the dryad tree, and it can’t be moved, set as your spawn point (until you reach a high enough power to move it or something)
Since the Dryad turned into a tree in the credits, could that mean that some trees in the Terraria world are other dryads as well?
*Hides axe behind back* Oops..
Time to commit deforestation.
Whoopsie doodle
Does that make Lucy the Axe a serial killer?
She is the last of her kind...
When you finish the game...
Ig you also avenge her entire race, so the tree chopped b4 isnt a dryad at all
5:20: Small note, the Golfer is the older brother of the Zoologist.
More than anything this makes me hyped for the possibility of terraria 2. Having Cthulhu as a final boss would be epic, having friendly Lhizards, and other possible continuations of current plot would be awesome
I think they are just going to continue making updates for the next game. If they did a gofundme for terraria 2, that would get a high amount of funding.
The guide does a lot of sitting for me. It’s the nurse that opens all the doors.
My head canon for the Dryad is after defeating the moon lord her job is finished so she turns into a tree, sleeping waiting for the time when she is needed once again.
At the end of the credits when the player spawns every npc but the dryad jumps up and cheers
0:33 I hope the zombie who finished him was another Terraria player who got killed by a zombie that the guide let in! that would be the best.
Pirate being a good man and trying to warn the naive Angler of great dangers in the seas.
I guess that's how he lost his crew and ship, someone tried fishing up food for the crew, with a Truffle Worm of all things... oof..
the guide "dies"
Chippy "yeah thats not bad, i'd say neutral"
"the dryad we have in our world is the sole survivor"
my dryad respawning with a different name after dying to EoC: 🗿🍷
8:28 those lizzards seem awefully familiar-
*The air is getting warmer around you*
*The Tyrants wrath is getting stronger*
Ahhh.... well fu-
the npcs: have happy endings
the player(s) returning to kill the moonlord again just for fun
2:09 Seeing Chippy dash straight into that Cthulunado gave me intense physical pain
“Even when he has met his demise, he will be replaced” -CG
The golfer is actually older than the zoologist, not the other way around. Small thing I know but just wanted to say that.
Personally, I see the dryads ending as her finally getting some well deserved rest. Making all that purification solution isn't easy, no doubt, so she's just getting a proper day of traditional dryad sleep
Dryads often turn into plants to basically just sleep
Strange lore for a stranger game, only makes sense
tax collector is clearly getting a naughty present.
4:39 dude, YOU’RE the clothier!
5:12 "HEY HEY THATS GONNA SUMMON THE DUKE FISHRON"
"I don't know what the hell your saying but *Duke fishron has awakened* uh..."
I imagine The Skeleton Merchant and The Travelling Merchant doing a loooooooong handshake
*installs Thorium and Calamity mod*
NPCs: "oh ffs"
The terraria lore is crazy ngl
5:01 the angler is a prankster. In a lot of quests he mentions putting fish in peoples dressers and stuff. I bet he showed the captain the truffle worm to mess with him.
The Dryad-turning-tree is a reference to Arthurian mythos and how Merlin becomes a tree after being… coerced… by a nymph.
not necessarily. it's just what dryads do in their mythology
This was really interesting! I think it also gives hints for what could come if Re-Logic's next game is Terraria 2. Maybe a few decades or centuries down the road, Cthulu is rebuilt and it's up to a new hero to take them down. Could even have the Dryad awaken from her tree form to aid the player. Perhaps it's a quest to find her people who were only thought to be killed, but had in fact gone to another planet?
4:02 "Dye Keeper"
I thought it was Dye Trader.
i mean, he *does* keep dye... until you give him strange plants. then he gives it away!
Hold up wait a minute...
I personally believe that Dryads were born from a Tree like an Apple for example, so when Dryad turned into a Tree she might give fruit of life to repopulate the race. I think it's reasonable and sweet
Same ways as trees aren't dead, the Dryad's still alive. She can turn back into human form if things go south, but let's hope she can just rest.
I love how they forgot the painter and party girl and stylist
You know with the whole chuthulu war id be neat to see it as a prequel to terraria
Terraria's lore is really goofy
- The official lore says the Cultist is trying to summon Moon Lord, but sometimes he's trying to stop him
- Skeletron is supposed to be ML's skeleton but has a glaring lack of eye sockets
- There's only one Skeletron/Old Man, one WoF, and one Dryad which leads me to believe that all the NPCs are the same person when they respawn
- Red said that ML is *_the_* Guide's father. That's right, *_the_* Guide. As in the one we had the entire time
I mean, a lot of it is just jokes that aren't meant to be taken seriously at all (not that the regular lore is particularly serious either), especially the one about the moon lord being the guide's father. Iirc, red also said the nymph/lost girl is the guide's grandmother, and the groom and bride zombies are the angler's parents. And regarding NPC respawning, the guide might be the only one who "canonically" dies in the story, because only his death is required to progress in the game. So perhaps the guide is the only npc there are multiples of
I tried to avoid the ending of terraria in each playthrough cus I didn’t want to end the magic it had in my eyes but after years upon years of playing I finally brought myself to the end of terraria and cheesy as it sounds this interpretation really brought back memories of past playthroughs with friends and alone and it genuinely brought a tear to my eye
My interpretation of the dryad is that she became a Tree that would later sprout to a Living wood tree. Despite being the last of her descendant, she can die in game, but I think she reincarnates from other Living wood trees inside the Living wood rooms. The reason she is "The last of her kind" is because there can only be one Dryad at a time in a world. I think the Dryad would return, but her becoming a Tree that would later morph into a gigantic living wood is nice.
no, she's the last of her kind as it is written that all the other dryads were wiped out with her as the sole survivor when they joined forces together against Cthulhu
The thing that he killed the wof the very second he said "peace" gave me so much satisfaction
Maybe all those Giant Trees in Terraria are former Dryads?
Clothier might have PTSD after being cursed for so long and truffle mushrooms are his coping drug.
In the ending he goes mad because of the drug abuse and eats the Truffle. Funny game!
I dont think the tavernkeep gets a happy ending, if you go into some spider biomes you can find what appears to be the tavernkeep's corpse covered in webs
maybe the dryad turned into a tree to make seeds that would sprout into other dryads, to continue her race
You should actually do a sort of reaction / analysis on Rational Gamers’ own lore videos.
The story he crafted is underrated, and better than what relogic put together in my opinion.
He’s also fairly underrated within the terraria community from my experience.
wait so if Chippy is the clothier and the clothier likes to eat the truffle that means Chippy secretly always wanted to eat the truffle
Even if you’re expendable I think being dead is still in the bad ending category, rip all of our guides!
I’m very very sure the Dryad simply went back into He true form until another worldly threat appears.
I personally believe that the Guide and the Zoologist are in love so I always make sure to house them together in a way that allows them to interact. It just makes me happy. The Guide's story is rather sad to me and he specifically likes the Zoologist, so since 1.4 I've housed them together in every single playthrough.
But the zoologist does like the witch doctor more
@@jhnb4_real The zoologist, being an animal lover, is probably like "cool, a lizard man!" Also if I were to guess, the Witch Doctor was probably the one who lifted her curse. Undoing lycanthropy seems to be a witch doctor thing to me, since witch doctors were tribal healers who specialized in using traditional medicine and 'cunning practices' to treat diseases believed to be caused by witchcraft. He just has to brew up some of that oo-ee-oo-aa-aa ting-tang wallawalla-bingbang and that curse is as good as done.
I’m pretty sure truffle is canonically a hallucinogenic mushroom. In one of his lines of dialogue he mentions that he wondered why everyone was trying to eat him so he tasted himself, and then everything started glowing blue.
I think the dryad ending has nothing to do with her passing on but more she's gone back to resting basically becoming one with nature until she is needed again and she will probably be back in terraria 2
I'd love to see videos about terraria's lore, I love stuff like this and I had no idea it existed!
The arms dealer definitely got a happy ending
Wait a minute...
The dryad could be acting as a catalyst for a new population of dryads the threat is finally gone and you have an immortal champion watching over the place so I don't see why not bring your race back from extinction basically.
so being a furry is a curse? I knew it!
I like to think that the land where dirt sells for a good price is the Not the Bees seed
5:33 furry artists are crying rn
ooo ive never been so early :D Nice to see another upload, love you chippy
petition: let's get MatPat on this
Why? The lore is just given to us. There's no point in trying to figure anything out
@@someone24688 Truth about dryad? Idk
@@someone24688 i'm sure matpat could find something
My head Cannon is the Dryad turned into one of those massive trees you can find naturally.
There used to be more Dryads, maybe all of those trees used to be one too...
I honestly belive that some of these are actually just slice of life and not actual endings for the characters.
Clothier and Truffle have a Tom and Jerry thing going on
Arms Dealer and Demolitionist have petty arguments often
Cyborg has a maintenance routine every so often
Dryad meditates/hybernates and becomes part of nature every once in a while
the guide gets eaten by zombies and subsequently replaced sometimes
Zoologist's curse has been lifted and the golfer is just passing time with her and her pets
The Pirate adopted the Angler and that's just what happened one day
Off topic, but I love how the play button in mobile fits PERFECTLY with your ring of fire.
I always saw the Dryad part as her just going into hibernation almost, waiting for the next threat to Terraria...
0:44 I'm sure he's fine. He somehow survives every time he does that with me...
I'm never so lucky.
