Who: Robin
Broadcast: Whole Network; Text
Action: N/A
When: Around 3/16
[this world? not really for him. but since Robin is not good at sitting still, and actively moping can only keep him occupied for so long... a text entry shows up on the network!]
Hey, I'm bored. I did some math. I charted out a rough conversion between Earth's calendar and my own world's calendar (which is much more sensible, honestly).
So, tell me when your birthdays are, and I'll tell you what king-sign you fall under. ♥ I'm under Ha'it, the King of Life and Death--which supposedly means I have a knack for seeing the big picture, and my lucky color is gold.
It's just for fun, of course. Who knows if it's actually accurate...

1/2 [LOCKED]
After the world collapsed, the people of Gratia were very scared and fragile. They lived under the earth, and while the caves and tunnels were unforgiving, they were nothing compared to the dangerous beasts who lived in the Haunting far below them. Or the surface, for that matter--it had become harsh, unlivable, and irradiated, and filled with all kinds of unfriendly creatures.
One such creature, a nameless monster, lived in the mountains far from the people of my own city... When it was young, it fed on goats and deer, but as it grew older, it started to eat wolves and bears. It grew larger the more it ate, and started to learn things. It learned that eating bigger and bigger things made it stronger. It learned that it could absorb the power of its prey. Eventually it grew so big that the sheer, narrow paths of the mountain could not hold it, and it slithered down into the valley where brave humans would sometimes crawl out of their caves to hunt for food.
Now, the monster could have gone on eating bears and lions and whatever else roamed the valley, but it saw these hunters and thought... What power these creatures must have. Yes, they were small, physically weak, unbalanced... But the monster watched them them speak to one another, create tools from almost nothing, and hunt animals many times their own size with cunning and cooperation. What a hidden strength must have dwelt in their hearts. It wanted that power for its own.
