aug 2020 Franz Wolf Ok, i'll contribute to the Wet-dry world negative aura legend with this theory: There's a sign in wet-dry world that says: "The mystery is of wet or dry. And where does the solution lie? The city welcomes visitors with the depth they bring as they enter.". The phrase "The city welcomes visitors with the depth they bring as they enter" is hinting that the initial water level of wet-dry world depends on how high Mario jumps on the painting to enter the level, but if you consider the possibility of the "negative aura" myth being true, then it could also mean that wet-dry world welcomes visitors with the emotional depth they bring. This means that if someone enters the level with negative feelings, like sadness or anger, then the game would detect this feelings and put them in the atmosphere of the level, and the player would feel as if the level has some kind of negative aura. On the other hand, if the player enters the level with positive feelings, they would feel like the level has a positive aura. I hope that this made at least a little sense, if not, i'm sorry, i have too much creepypasta in my head! ===
