I like how he always manages to mess with people in fairly innocent ways. And how he comes up with "one big thing" for every season. Sometimes multiple. The civil war, the mayoral election, the upside-down, the mycelium resistance, the sewer community, the tree battle, Tegg, and now trying to get into Mumbo's vault. And outside of hermitcraft he also does the "life" seasons. They add a nice little extra to the series and often include a lot of other hermits as well, basically providing himself and the participating hermits with content and an emerging side-story line. And whenever Grian goes to Scar or Mumbo for "an idea" you know it's going to be entertaining. :P

A part of me is honestly hoping that the rift is part of the evo watcher lore. Ever since Martyn resurfaced the grian watcher story, Im now hoping that the "rift" is just a watcher gate way that causes anomalies. Based on Martyn's last life ending, the watchers seems displeased that grian joined them in the game instead of just watching. So in turn, they opened a rift in grian's base and out of the rift came the entity(I know the entity came first, but since building take a lot of time and tell their own story, I like to think the entity came out from the rift and crawled around the server to keep a watch on grian and the other hermits[especially the ones in last life])

I would also like to suggest that when grian fell, that was the grian who thought he was about to fall into the void and die in season 8, instead being brought here, somewhere else, and not dying when he fell.

Yeah as the other comments say. It's like in Season 6 where he had a bit with Chorus Fruits TPing him to the Shopping District and back, but the chorus fruit numbers would never correspond to what it should. It's just an imperfection, roll with it.

Personally, I just hope Grian's haunted mansion from season 6 somehow makes its way back with the rift. It was in season 7, where Doc and BDubs used it as their starter base. Also it was in season 8 in the ship where the Hermits were in stasis chambers. It's just a simple house, but was built/rebuilt/modified by the most Hermits in the entirety of Hermitcraft.

A lot people probably just think that all of this is a coincidence but honestly, it might actually be true because theres no way all of these things happened for no reason and grian even said himself this season that he wanted to really add more story to his builds and although this theory seem REALLY far fetched, i honestly think its possible

If you go to 36:12 on Grian’s last episode of Season 8, Scar himself asks if the blue particles of the void are “different worlds (seasons) they’ll travel to”, which is such a big hint to this lore

HE IS always planning something. How could you not remember that lol.

The Hermit Multiverse is all different seasons they will travel to, and some are different versions. For example, they're could be a version where HC season 2 is still going on. And if you watch Grian's latest episode of season 9, The Return, Grumbot says he is from a reality where Mumbo Became mayor in season seven. It works kind of like the MCU multiverse with infinite possibilities. The rift is just a portal through time and space to these realities. The Entity is from some version or future season of Hermit Craft. This explains how Grumbot came through the rift, from his version of season seven. Mumbo's soul collided with Grian's soul because of the multiverse and the Rift. That's what i think anyway

Grian deffinatly seems to be up to something lore-wise, even beyond hermitcraft, considering that he put a watcher symbol in secret life

*who is this Grain character you’re talking about*

I wonder if that "bringing back stuff from previous seasons" ties into a lot of the other hermits stuff as well, such as the moss o menos shop being "totally not aquatown" and the "totally not hermit challenges" as said word for word by the hermits. It seems to be a pattern that fits well with your theory.

I love how this seems to be very much what is happening. Like, Grian mentioned a few times now that his plans for this season are "very nostalgia based" (though, as someone who was apparently watching him for 7 years now, I can't help but wish it were nostalgia for his older series. like, what wouldn't I give for even a passing reference to evo or something, especially since the vibes do fit, at least for the fanon filling in the blanks, and CCs have shown multiple times that they can listen to us, but I do know its unlikely... even though Martyn did make an evo reference in last life... one can dream...)

the "rift crash" you mentioned due to grian getting his soul back also could be a way of setting up the 1.19 update!

I like how the lore is incorporated with tiny easter eggs so you can still enjoy hermitcraft on a "surface level" Like i didn't even think about how bdubs or impulse were part of the lore, i thought some hermits just decided to give an origin story to their bases ahah

Just a bit of an update, look at what came out of the rift in recent episodes. Spoiler warning for newer episodes!! Grumbot came out of the portal, but it came from a different timeline. Back in S7 when Mumbo ran for president, he didn’t win. In the timeline this Grumbot came from, he did. So what if the rift goes to alternate timelines of previous seasons? Like you said with Mumbo? The rift brought back a version of Mumbo where he still had part of Grian’s soul, and now it’s brought back a version of Grumbot where Mumbo won the election and became the mayor!

The unexpected.

other people have probably said this, but I want to speak about it as well! the “other lives” are definitely other hermitcraft seasons. the “past loves” is most likely a reference to double life, where two people are “soulmates” sharing health/damage/deaths. generally, people think of the term soulmate as a romantic term, but platonic soulmates, (if you believe in soulmates) are a thing as well. platonic love just takes the place of romantic love, which could mean that’s what “past loves” is referring to.

The Architects reference brought back memories 😭

This is such a great video, very well put together! Though, I’d like to mention something I noticed? the episode where GTW Ska reads landscaping your mind at the very end wasn’t originally planned out (I think).

I think he actually pushed the episode back to add the black screen with GTW Ska reading? He got the idea from Scar reading it again on stream and decided to add it. Of course, I could be wrong and just mixed up some parts of the stream. It’s also possible it is a part of the “Grian lore,” just it was a last minute decision to add it. Either way, just wanted to mention it! Great video!

Yeah, you’re right. It was added last minute thanks to the stream. I think it still has lore implications though, considering what had happened before cutting to it. Still seems purposeful, even if it was last minute

omg im so excited for this! i love grians pov on hermitcraft and the lore for this season is super interesting!

If Grian can see other realties, this could mean we might get a return of NPC Grian. That’d be amazing.

This theory is now even more possible bc grain just said himself during pride mcc after questioned for hints for the hc lore that we should look into the rift

False's prank on the skeleton head being a call back to s2 also supports the idea that season jumping shenanigans are infecting s9. Also, HC being 10y/o is a obvious milestone to celebrate with looking back. Perhaps Joe's video (w/ cub) looking at old season stuff may hold clues as well.

Reminds me of how scar and bdubs have a "not aquatown" town, lot of inspo from aqua town there too. Which plays into this theory well, maybe they are dabling a bit too, or they just like that style of building and it just happened, but still really cool how im seeing this theory play into a lot of what some of the hermits are doing.

OH YEAH YOURE RIGHT, This is giving me goosebumps

mumbo.... "drank" grians soul as it is a smoothie

I think that the new mumbo is perhaps the surviving one from season 9s Apocalypse as opposed to the actual mumbo. Hence the name and the transfer of a part of grains soul and as well perhaps that is how grian was able to find this mumbo. Because a part of him exists within

he forgot to turn off the chat in the timelapse of making the nether portal which is connected to the rift and he forgot to turn the chat off in the past so maybe that's a way of him saying that the rift is for traveling back in time!

This is really interesting! I love how you pick up on the finest details such as Mumbo's username. I'm really intrigued to find out if Grian will get part of his soul back!

The evo smp's martyn lore vid we see that the listener answer martyn's question of "why were you so set on Grian?" with "hm, him. he was never meant to be there.. He was only meant to watch." indicating that grian turn into a watcher during his finale was most likely canon. and during the collab series][Hermitcraft 9: Episode 26 - THE MINECRAFT MULTIVERSE] with empires ,Grians so called power as said abt reality hopping could be seen, as hermitcraft is entirely transported to empires and visa versa this was only possible cuz of The rift activated by Grian the entity could be a mere vessel to access the powers, the broken moon portal also looks like a ref from hc8 where Grian kept the key moment [a self made theory that the watcher destroyed HC8 to warn Grian of the destruction they can cause because Grian isnt a following the watcher way] and making it so that the life series, the pure amount of chaos and challenges could be Grian's way of sufficing the watcher needs? so maybe the reality shifting is a part of being a watcher?

This was before the crossover but the second half of the theory for the future was shockingly accurate

Thank you for pointing the lore of hermitcraft out, Grian finally gets his spotlight, I needed this, Thank you, Just thank you

I doubt that Scar's audio ook has someething to do with it. In a MCC the day before the episode with that sponshorship was uploaded, Grian talked a bit about how funny the sponsorship was and that he actually had Scar record a couple more "chapters" that he didn't use in the sponsorship himself. Eventually during that MCC Grian decided to put one of those extra recordings at the end of the episode just for some fun. It was not originally planned to be in the episode, so I don't think it has something to do with this "story".

Might be turned to it lore who knows

Let's not forget Season 6 literally did end with Season 6 Grian traveling to Season 7

This video did a great job at the more subtle parts of Grian's HC9 lore. However, it's worth noting that he's been responsible for nearly all the major "arcs" on the server. The Civil War in Season 6, The Turf War in Season 7, all the Boatem lore in Season 8, this lore in Season 9, and now his lore in Season 10. He's really been at the center of the server and might be replacing Xisuma as "the admin"

I was extremely skeptical at first, but this is all actually starting to make sense, and it all comes together when you consider that Grian's "Dwayne" Rock base is going to have features of all different styles of building in it!

There's even more to back this season hopping theory up! In Grian's season 9 time-lapse music by Jono, "Portal", it has a mix of older themes related to grian, such as Jono's grian time-lapse songs "Block by block", "sunbeam" and the hermitcraft theme from the end of season 8, (There may be others like "work" in there too that I didn't notice) showing how grians past is coming from the portal. I love how grian is mixing lore with a open-ended server like hermitcraft. It makes watching his videos very fun to wait and see what happens next. It's also really cool how many other hermits are part of it, some indirectly, as it feels like it may be a serverwide story that grian has the honor of starting.

I feel like there's a very solid chance this WAS planned, but then it didn't happen/went on hold because IRL Mumbo took like a year off from the server. So instead they did all the stuff with Grumbot and the Empires Crossover to fill the gap, but that now sort of still fits because that's still all alternate universe shit! Grian is so damn cool!

Kinda feels like grasping at straws, or just theorycrafting. Though at this point in time, why not? It's something fun to do.

Ok, this is an incredible theory, and if this all turns out to be true, what an awesome idea for a story. Definitely going to be keeping a close eye on his series!

Something you forgot that also supports this theory: Bdubs recently got LuLu (season 8 horse) back in pig form.

@@Homie_1111 a lot of stuff was thrown into the void but pig lulu being from season 8 lulu fits the theory better

4:44 Okay, for the previous minutes, I had been a teensy bit skeptical, but this is concrete proof. Grian did this on purpose. He hasn't had audio bugs before (as far as I can remember), and that is NOT a MC sound.

I think the whole rift resetting the server thing would most likely happen differently, considering that now there isn't a focus on the vault. However, if that were to happen then I think it would be part of the finale of season 9. Either way, I also can't wait to see what else he has planned.

Amazing video! A lot of this is really interesting. A couple things I've figured out/heard since Grian's video was released: - The blindness was caused by Scar's cookie which Grian ate- it's retextured suspicious stew and has been shown to be the one that causes blindness in videos such as Pearl's- so it's probable that it's unrelated to the lore imo -It's been calculated, with feather falling the drop into the cave shouldn't have killed him. Obviously, this doesn't mean it's not lore that "the rift saved him", he can still imply that, but imo it feels like those were just filler words to say before he notices the creepy rift noises which are... definitely more important. But it still could be, I'm not sure! -It's probable, in my opinion, that Landscaping your mind is sadly unrelated to the lore - mainly because the majority of it was in the ad section and the part that wasn't was added on at the last second - which we know because of a conversation Scar and Grian had after mcc the day before the video released. Scar did the whole "Landscaping Your Mind" speech (the one not part of the advert) on stream during the chill time after MCC, and Grian was like "oh that's actually better than the one we did for the actual advert... I kinda want to include that in the video" and so they decided to record that part after MCC and Grian edited it in last second over a dark screen. However, it's still such cool imagery, lore or not, and I love to see the theories! I think the ones about Mumbo in particular are super interesting, considering that there definitely was a mustache behind the rift, and soon after, Mumbo-without-the-Jumbo came back from his break! It reminds me of the Taurtis-summoner from Evo (not saying it's related to Evo- I really don't think it is considering that Grian hasn't mentioned it in years, although I'm excited to be proven wrong if it is!) The waffle, additionally, is very interesting, I didn't know that he changed skin before he came back! (Does anyone know if he did it *right* before he came back, or did he change it in like . season 8? Because that makes a huge difference to whether it's relevant or not) The architecture is also super interesting! That person is right, it really does look like previous seasons. It could also be Grian's building habits, though, so I'm trying not to commit to any one idea. This has been kind of sceptical, but overall he definitely is doing lore of *some* kind- (flesh entity, rift making noises). I just think that, following the pattern of what kind of lore Grian has done in the past, it may not be what we expect! However, I'm not Grian, and this *is* very different from a lot of what he's done in the past. And I'm super excited to see where this goes. Also, I just want to say- I love the fandom's Landscaping Your Mind/Watcher interpretations, they are so cool. As was this video! Amazing job. Lmk if there's anything I missed! (Edit-formatting)

but that's just a theory A GAME THEORY

i think that this theory is absolutely wonderful, especially because we have seen season hopping before. in the only(iirc) time we’ve seen scar do actually magic during season 7 when he sent i think cub back to retrieve welsknight from where he got left behind, and sort of with ren and doc at the beginning of season 8 traveling separately from the rest of the hermits because they got stuck in season 7

Grian not trying to clutch or something while falling into the beacon hole could be explained by the fact he's not set up to clutch here- he hasn't got a water bucket or a boat on his hotbar, and he's in third person, which would just make everything harder. However, that's mostly disproven by the fact that he's wearing an elytra. He could have opened it and clutched with it pretty easily. Also I find the way he walks into the hole into the first place really unnatural for him- I've watched a lot of Grian outros, and I've never seen him wobble around in third person that much. It's almost like he's doing it on purpose!

This makes me think about the time machine that grian made in season 6 that took him litearly back in time to an earlier update.

Grian should see this

Another interesting thing about him falling into the rift cave that makes it so much more intentional than an accident is that Grian **always** panics to rocket when he notices himself falling from a great height. He's not known as one of the best MCYT fliers for nothing, he KNOWS how to save himself! So the fact that he fell, let it happen, didn't move a single inch or change the camera...full intent was there bc he's just??? Amazing at crafting these stories. Some of Grian's older fans may remember his EVO series. Newer fans see his Last/Third/Double Life series....this man is a storyteller at heart and the way he uses Minecraft as the medium to share his ideas is SO amazing. Sure there's coincidences and accidents here and there that he works around or works into his ideas but he's thought through so much and it shows with every new piece of info. I'm extremely excited to see where his story this season is going EDIT: Another thing I recall seeing quite recently is from a different hermit, Rendog! Who basically started saying on stream that there is a multiverse of MC servers, and each new season of HC(barring 8) is a completely different planet in the Hermitcraft solar system. So this "Season hopping" may not be entirely dimensional but also planetary. I do think that Grian isn't only pulling from other HC seasons however, I'm sure there's plenty of hints from his other series littered around, or about to be littered around if things grow more unstable....

Coming back to this post hermitpires and my god did this guy nail it, also grumbot prime operating as the ultimate version of grian

It would be funny if Grian didn't plan any lore out and the creator of this video is just thinking way too hard. Anyway, amazing work!

wait until he finds out about grumbot and the crossover also in Grian's last s9 episode num. 50 he opened Mumbo's vault, therefore letting out jumbo to his mumbo

He did say that he was planning to design his base starting from the classic ages and wanted to go further in time with the designs ending at futuristic.

Can we get an update since now the rift has been used to go to the empires smp? Curious to see if that ties in at all!

Even though the season has now ended this was an amazing video and I like the thought that grian new what was going to happen when falling is because in Last Life Joel shot him of of Mumbos ghast farm and Grians Limited Life season ended with him falling off of Skynet.

Watching this almost a year after the events is like a fever dream

Wow. This video is amazing at the least. Also, we can see that how much effort he puts into each of his videos as in the start the episode was 9th, which was uploaded a good time ago. This tells us that he puts so much time so that we, The viewers get a quality product at the cost of our precious time. Kudos!

Wow.. you dug WAY too deep into that.. AND I LOVE IT THANK YOU FOR DOING THE HARD BITS FOR US 💖💖💖

The more I watch Grian's new episodes, the more I realize that you was absolutely right, like he literally built Grumbot

So I’m super late to this but the season just ended and mumbo didn’t finish the back of his base exactly like grian has done the past few seasons
