The Traveller

Song by Chris de Burgh

In from the coast, riding like the wind and racing the moon,

Shadows on the road, dancing and a-weaving like a crazy fool.

A horseman is coming, death in his heart, for a rendez-vous,

And where the traveller goes, nobody knows,

Where the traveller goes, nobody knows

A candle in the night, fear on every face when he goes inside

(Maybe he's on the run?)

Get back from the bar! A stranger in town is a dangerous sight

(Maybe he's got a gun?)

"Bring a bottle of whisky, ladlord, I wanna talk for a while."

And where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows,

Oh, where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows

There is something in his eyes, something in his hands,

You can almost smell his revenge!

And whoever he is after, it will be disaster:

This man is gonna take him to the very end

Well, the landlord he trembled, staring at a face he'd seen somewhere before.

(You laid him in the ground)

Suddenly remembers a killing, yes, a murder, many years before.

('Twas you that shot him down)

He said to a boy: "Saddle me the black, I'll meet you down below.

With this man I must talk, yes with this traveller I'll go,

With this man I must talk, yes with him I must go."

There is something in his eyes, something in his hands,

I can almost smell his revenge!

And it's me that he's after, it will be disaster:

This man is gonna take me to the very end

And they were never seen again!

The Traveler might actualy be Jack's dad (or Cygnus's dad??????)

I decided to make a post because this has been in my head for a day and a half. So with "Murder on the Dancefloor'' being released and people being scared for WanderRose (Wanderlust x Jack Rose), I started to ponder if Jack really could be Traveler's son, and I REALLY think it is possible after realizing some implications in maps. The first implication is cloning, how? Well, I think Jack can make clones of himself based on the map "Treasure"( also/maybe "Locked out of Heaven" because of the mirrors {not all of the mirrors would have seen Jack so it might be clones in the mirror but it also might just be his imagination that there are mirrors there as well} "Canned Heat" may also be a possibility because of the mirrors we see, not all of them would see Jack, it could also be just a stylistic choice{We have to question everything because we aren't given all the lore}). We know this map is an illusion but why would she make up his ability to use magic/flow? When it gets to the part where they are on the big stage the clones behave and look differently, the clones no longer look like an illusion (mirror/smoke effect), and the 4 clones all act differently from one another which makes me think that this is something that he also can do, he appears to have a magic staff (Normal Jack Rose also has this) or he uses his flow to make the staff appear and disappear. Who else can make clones? The Traveler and Si'ha Nova. Night Swan has never shown the ability to make clones only illusions with her magic, so if he does have the ability to clone who did he get this from? It had to be from a Deity/Sorcerer who knows how to use flow so well that they can clone and Jack inherited or was taught it by them before Leda took him and left. Not even Wanderlust who is the son of Traveler and Si'ha, has the ability (from what we've been shown) and he's the prince of dancerverse, a deity.

I know a lot of people don't think the Traveler can be Jack's dad because they look nothing alike however Jack doesn't look anything like his mom either other than hair color (I used a color finder for Jack's hair color and it appears to be Rosso Corsa which can be made with Magenta (Leda's hair color) and Cerulean Blue (The Traveler's hair color which is a cyan and cyan helps make red) (other colors are used also to make red) Not only that, if anything I think he has more in common (outfit colors) with the Traveler, he has purple, and gold accents in his outfit which tie in with the Traveler meanwhile Jack has magenta feathers which tie in with young Leda not Night Swan. In all other instances, Jack has a gold glove on his main hand, in treasure his main glove hand is now purple and his other hand is gold (Night Swan changed some of his colors and reversed his outfit so he looked like her instead of him). What do the Traveler, Wanderlust, and Jack have in common? They all have a gold glove on their main hand, Si'ha Nova does have gold on her main glove but the glove is mostly purple. This is a link (in the main story) between the three, all the signs were there the whole time. When it came to the hand part in the map "Majesty" Jack probably was the only one who could save Wanderlust since they share the same ancient flow magic (also because they could be related).

Wanderlust also doesn't really look like his parents either (he has black hair), the only thing he has in common (other than outfit colors) is the fact that he has blue skin. So the argument that Traveler can't be Jack's dad because of hair color isn't really valid. I also saw people say that it can't be possible that Traveler is Jack's dad because when they touched hands there was no magic flare like when Traveler and Si'Ha did. Well, I have a counter against that, Leda and Wanderlust didn't have a magic/flow flare because Leda didn't have magic/flow at that moment she only got magic from him a couple seconds afterward, They probably would have had a magic flare If they did the holding hands gesture after she got powers, which they could do the magic baby thing too actually, like how Wanderlust came to be. Overall I think it is VERY likely that they are brothers. It makes sense storyline-wise because it seems like even though they just met each other it looks like there's already a connection between them.

Also it explains why Jack is resistant to his mother in ways that the others cannot, he's half-human but also part not human (humans are resilient to flow, it took longer for Sara to get captured) he isn't like the others which is why she didn't try to turn him she has to coerce him, (Jack may also be part deity? I can't remember if Traveler was just a protector of dancerverse). It makes sense that Leda and Traveler would start a relationship because of the map "Save your tears” the lyrics are giving relationship/toxic relationship struggles, Traveler and Si'ha want to be together but at the same time don't, they push and pull each other. So Leda and Traveler may have had a magic baby together during the time when Si'ha and Traveler were on and off again, {before syt remix maybe} (the timeline is a little messed up because in Motdf he is obviously younger but has disco ball but he made that for Wanderlust, unless every dancerverse protector has a disco ball in which case he might have met Leda before Si’Ha). Before Night Swan had been consumed by the feelings of needing to be perfect and taking Jack Rose with her to Eternyx and changing her name to Night Swan.

I may update this with more information if I realize/missed something I want to talk about. And I will probably answer any questions that are given. Also Just Dance Team did you really have to do the ship that dirty? XD

Ballad of Reclamation

Waken the guardians, rally their wards. Gather their banners, their hammers and swords. Call to the speaker, Travelers voice. Call to the people and bid them rejoice. Run to all corners to find those in hiding. Run to the vanguards bearing our tiding. Our words are rallies, though through no feat. We sing not of victory, nor of retreat. Foes do not cower, nor do they flee. Their force still grows far as our eyes can see. They are not weakened, arms not diminished. But for this strength, we still are not finished. For we are standing, strong as before. Greatest our prowess, since the Dark war. Foes may not cower, foes may not flee. But we are guardians, neither do we.

Ballad of the Fall

Long ago, in the times of old. Before the blight and the age of gold. A bright silver star did fall from on high. And brought warmth and light to the dark and the cold. This star was mighty, its power so grand. It taught mankind to leave their cold land. And visit the nine old gods in the sky. And so the nine gods became marked by man’s brand. Men became proud in their golden age. For they could not see that their star was a sage. Foretelling their fall, though not by its hand. Mankind would find itself in a cage. And so came the blight, which began the great battle. Where so much of man would be slaughtered like cattle. The achievements of man became naught but dull sand. And mankind did sound what would seem its death rattle. Mankind was dying but still would not yield. And so our grand star became our brave shield. Our first brave Guardian paid with its life. And gave us a power only we could wield. With our new powers humanity grew. With weapons of old, and kinsmen true. We will bring about the end of this strife. And revive the destiny of mankind anew.

Ballad of Night

Arise my brothers, our night is not done. We stand at the gates fighting dozens with one. At dawn we'll sing songs of this glorious fight. Guardians alone will outlast this night. The foes fear our hammer, our bullet and blaze. Bear your dark helmets, no fear in our gaze. The glory of dawn tis a beautiful sight. One we'll only see if we outlast this night. Their horde is vast, this army of dark. But we are blessed with the Travelers mark. We will not give up will not yield to this blight. It cannot be long, we must outlast this night. Their blades are brutal, their hatred unyielding. So eager to burn what we all would die shielding. Don't may bring blood but that future's still bright. To me my brothers we'll outlast this night.
