Hello, me again, this is a follow up from my last question about adult beats and undyne
So Ive been thinking alot and I can only see one other alternative to the enlightenment being memorizing the song and living walking and breathing to it. I now think, thanks to what you said, that they dont predict their song, they control it, they decide and conduct their own song.
By achiving enlightenment I think they learned how to decide their own future by deciding their own song, by deciding it they dont need to remember as if they forget they'll change it up a bit to have it work.
This also explains AdultBeats's temperature control better since he is deciding what tempo his souls(since its stated his soul is the thing changing temperature, I imagibe the tempo being like vibration for a monster of sounds soul, lower tempo lower temperature and vice versa) song is playing at.
Did I get it? Also thanks for responding to my theories, it means alot
Guardian!Beats is actually going to be Muffet's successor. Muffet is the guardian of the Universe they're currently in all the while finding where they actually came from, their original world their home. Since all the Monsters of Sound doesn't actually belong in the multiverse of Undertale. So they are sort of alien, but due to their existence and settlement in the current world they're living in, Underbeats, it began to tie-in more closely with the other worlds within the Undertale Universe. Originally, the current world they're in was just a normal world, without the existence of monsters. They're that world that was connected to Undertale but the Monsters never existed, until the Flowers and the Fruits came in. So their species sort of took upon the role of Monsters.
Muffet became the guardian of this world due to her ability of foresight, it saved the world from possible casualties and also enabled Muffet to see further. Through Muffet and other members who are now sadly deceased, they were able to attain a bit more of their origin, some bits and pieces of history(This will be very important). They were also able to discover that the world they were currently living in wasn't their own. Their physical appearance are actually borrowed, so pretty much they mimicked how the originals looked like to a certain extent, enough so they can fill in the shadow roles. What Fox means by shadow roles is that they're filling in a similar role of another person. For example: Sans to Beats, Papyrus to Nico, Gaster to Maestro. By then they were sort of aware that there are people who looks like them from somewhere else. Though they would still be surprised if they did see each other though.
That being said, Muffet is the oldest living Flower among the others. Even older than the Royal family, she was one of the firsts seeds to drift into their current world. Though even with her powers, they still have extreme difficulty in tracking down their original world. It's like it's protected by a really thick barrier, but it still beckons to them, yearning for them to come home. That's why they don't stop in their search. It got postponed during the war with the humans, but then continued after they settled in the Underground.
So now let's look over why Beats being able to control their soul temperature is unusual, most plant life die in the extreme cold, and if a Monster of Sound is cold that's a bad sign. They're pretty much in critical condition at that point. Beats being able to willingly control their souls temperature into freezing is somewhat not supposed to happen. They only attained that through ascension or well as you call it enlightenment with the help of Muffet. They just really understood how their souls function. Fox isn't going to explain how, but their mask has a contribution to how Beats is able to do it. Emotions and how they Influence things are also a keyword.
The songs of their souls differ from each other since the songs are like DNA, if that makes any sense to you guys. So it's pretty unique to them. Fox did post how their souls looked like here before.
Fox made Maestro's soul as an example, also their soul core is not cracked, don't worry. It's like a raw uncut jewel. That's why it looks like that. That's the seed. Their kind came into existence due to an ancient song the World Tree has sung back in their original world. That's why the songs in their souls are so vital to them and why it's important. It connects them. If their songs are no longer sung by their souls, it's as if they have already died.
Their tempo magic is more intertwined with speed and time alteration. Specifically with timing, not going back and forward through time. It's a very assistive type of magic, and depending how one uses it, it can be used for offense. Monsters of Sounds were known to be able to control the weather, but it was more or less like they were influencing the climate or weather to change. That's not the same case with Beats, it's really not to the extent that Beats has, where their own soul temperature changes and it affects their surroundings instead. It's not like Grillby either, Grillby's exterior is hot, but not their soul. Their soul remains in a safe temperature like how it should be with their species, the jelly-like encasing makes sure that the soul is safe.
Hopefully this helped you the little bit! A few notes:
Monster of Sound was what the humans decided to call them, they're actually Flowers and Fruits.
Beats is addressed as they/them/their. They are genderless still.
Muffet is ultra old, and is lonely. She just wants people to talk to. Please come by and visit her. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH.
Fox likes hearing everyone's thoughts and theories with Underbeats. To Fox's dismay, even if Fox wants to paint some visual aids for you guys. Fox is unable. Fox really wants to though.
