Winged Light in Sky: Children of the Light

Winged Light is the source of your Sky Kid’s flight power in Sky: Children of the Light. Collecting Children of Light increases your cape’s power, while Wing Buffs provide permanent progression that returns after rebirth.
1. What Is Winged Light?
Winged Light is collected from glowing Children of Light throughout the Kingdom. Each collected light increases your cape’s wing power and allows additional flaps or longer flight.
2. Cape Wedges and Flight
Cape wedges show your flight power. Each wedge represents a flap, while the cape’s charge level affects how much energy is available. Recharge by touching light sources, butterflies, other players, or suitable props and creatures.
3. Children of Light
Children of Light are found throughout realms and sub-areas. Search cliffs, caves, rooftops, islands, and side routes. See our Winged Light Locations guide for realm-by-realm exploration advice.
4. Wing Buffs
Wing Buffs are permanent unlocks purchased with Ascended Candles in eligible Spirit trees. After rebirth, each unlocked Wing Buff contributes a starting Winged Light. Traveling Spirits can also offer Wing Buffs if you have not already unlocked that Spirit’s buff.
5. Recovering Lost Winged Light
Some hazards can cause you to lose carried Winged Light. Lost lights return to their original world locations and can be collected again. Revisit the realms and search the locations where you previously found Children of Light. Map shrine progress can help identify areas with missing lights.
6. Map Shrines
Map shrines reveal areas on your map as you discover them. The map can show that an area has a missing Child of Light, but it does not provide the exact location of the individual light. Explore the area thoroughly to find it.
7. Frequently Asked Questions
Do Wing Buffs disappear after Eden?
No. Purchased Wing Buffs are permanent and return as starting Winged Light after rebirth.
Can I get lost Winged Light back?
Yes. Revisit its original location and collect it again.
Does a cosmetic increase wing power?
No. Wing power comes from Children of Light and Wing Buffs, not cosmetic appearance.
