We can infer that by returning to Vellie means that you are going to the past since the other only option is staying at the present. This is backed up by the fact that Noctae's hologram, almost at the end of the conversation at the "Eternal Sanctuary", states: "Perhaps our Hex machine worked, after all", just a few seconds after affirming that he also predicted the death of Otus in a great battle above in a floating city but that also, if his math calculation were true, Otus would also be at his hologram.Įxpanding on this, how could Otus be dead but also be at Noctae's hologram? If we recall, after finishing the game, if you get to continue the same game profile, you are inmediately located at your last save, that is the one just before the Solus fight, with just one difference, that next to you there is a star shaped object that after examining it, you get a black screen and two options: remain in the present or return to Vellie.
To break out of their fate by allowing time traveling. A machine that could allow the Owls to break "The Loop".
This is what I think leads to the creation of the "Hex Machine". It is a popular adage that states "whatever can go wrong, will go wrong." ('s_law). I believe this is a reference to what we know as Murphy's Law in the real world. This is what I think is the great discovery the Owls made and it is referred in the world of Owlboy as "The Loop". He also said that no matter how many parameters he changed in his equation, he could not change the outcome that was his own death. Because, if you didnt get to read the holograms and even the secret one, you wouldnt get to have "The Loop" and the reason as to why the "Hex Machine" was created, explained to you.Īfter going through Noctaes holograms he explains that, with mathematics, you can predict the trajectory of a rock or the orbit of a star but, after mastering it, he said that he could also predict his own death and even every death of every life. The ending expected you to collect all 3 Owl Tokens so that you would get to go to the "Eternal Sanctuary" read all the holograms (including the secret one too) and piece the story together. It seems rushed because of the way the ending was told. It is a very deep and well thought out story. The ending may seem unsatisfying at first because it seems kind of rushed and with many holes and questions unaswered, although it wasnt. 3-4 hours of research in and out of game and making the comment.
