hey i have something from home. i want to know what everyone thinks! it's one of my favorites

[There's a couple of seconds where nothing is heard. But suddenly, without warning, a rather distinctive song begins to play:

yes it's the gold saucer music

And no, it's not stopping. Not for a good ten minutes or so. Probably best to just cut the feed two minutes in... or sit and listen. Maybe there's a prize at the end for listening to a 10 minute loop.

There is not.

And yes, a certain someone just acquired a Birdbox from the shop and decided to put it to good use. You know, sharing culture from your home world and all that good stuff. He might also be trying to see if anyone recognizes the music, just to take note who else is from Gaia.]

And ruin the mystery?

gotta make it difficult, huh?

not even one hint?

[ragingnature]

Well, you don't recognize Olympus so that narrows down what I can use for hints.

Tell me, does your world have gods?

locked;

[ruinedempire]

hmm, not that i know of! if there are any gods, they definitely haven't showed their face around recently!

[ragingnature]

It used to surprise me hearing that some world don't have gods. Now it seems to me that's much more common.

[ruinedempire]

does that worry you at all? just a bunch of humans running around with no gods around

locked;

[ragingnature]

Worried? No.

It does make me wonder how that world works, however. How do things grow without nature gods? What happens to the souls of the dead? Where do they go? That kind of stuff.

[Well, there's a full explanation for this one. Just depends on how much he wants to answer.]

hey i have answer for you on that! sort of! there's something called the lifestream and people go back to it when they die. that's what i heard anyway, sounds almost hokey in my opinion

locked;

[ragingnature]

That's different. [ She's imagining an actual river somewhere now. ]

locked;

[ruinedempire]

huh, how is that different? without the lifestream, i think my world would be barren

locked;

[ragingnature]

Souls of the dead drifting off into some stream somewhere is a bit strange, no?

Though I suppose you'd find how things work where I'm from to be different and strange as well.

locked;

[ruinedempire]

hmm i guess when you put it that way, it does sound strange!

but probably! i mean, it's already weird hearing that gods actually exist in yours!

[ragingnature]

And the lack of gods in your world is weird to me.
