Duodécima ⚜ Roda [February 26th, afternoon; video]

Good afternoon, Death City...!

[Fabiola's settled onto one of the swings in the park, and is rocking back and forth as she waves at the screen. It's likely disorienting as all get-out, but she... probably doesn't know that. Damn 90s kids and their lack of webcam etiquette. She stops swinging when she starts to talk though, so that's good, right?]

As it seems to be a month for asking questions, I was wondering- there are plenty of residents here that would be considered Aliens- that is, extraterrestrials, from other planets and the like. Would some of you mind terribly telling me about the places where you are from? I am- [kind of a sci-fi nerd--]- quite interested in learning about what kind of civilizations occur on other planets.

[She rocks back and forth slightly again, and then taps her chin with a gloved finger, thinking.]

And on an unrelated note- does anyone know anything about painting murals? Or taking care of chickens? The two are quite unrelated, but I thought if anything, someone who knows something about either of them might know catch sight of this.

[Seriously, there is a ninja chicken overtaking a corner of her living room, DC. Help.]

Similar in some ways. [a little smile.

his gaze, his tone, never flickers at that. "interesting" is one word for it. but "terrible" may be more appropriate.]
Our longevity has its advantages and disadvantages. Chief among the former is that I actually have the ability to educate and inform, first-handedly, about the past. Someone has to remember our successes so that they may be emulated-- and our mistakes, so that they may not be repeated.

[hark, a segue! qilby coughs and continues where he'd left off previously.] Our society was a great one, but power and greatness tends to attract envious glances. Another civilization, jealous of our magic and technology, attacked-- and though we were a force to be reckoned with, ourselves, we were no match for a people who existed for nothing more than destruction. The Mechasms, as they were called, forced us to flee our home and take to the stars.

With the nigh-limitless power of an artefact I helped invent -- the Eliacube -- we were able to create a ship that allowed us to sail the Krosmoz in search of a new home. It was a journey that lasted many years, and it was during this time that we came across the other planets that I mentioned earlier.
