Khrysalis Funeral Headcanon:
Whenever one of their own dies, the Burrowers (and by extension the Sugar Gliders) plant something in honor of their fallen brethren. Usually, it would be a nice tree or the deceased’s favorite flowers.
But they plant something near or above where they buried as opposed to placing a tombstone on top of their resting place. They do this because it symbolizes life beginning anew after death; One life surrenders so another’s can begin. And with new life, it keeps on fanning the flames of hope amidst the shadows of despair.
With so much of Khrysalis crystallized and deforested, the Burrowers and their allies believe it is their duty to help Khrysalis regrow and heal from the ravages of the 100 year war and Morganthe’s reign.
This funeral practice also serves as a reminder to never take peace for granted, and to remember the scars of the past so that Khrysalis never bleeds war again.
- Because Dyvim technically escaped death, he will (probably) have two funerals with Sunflowers planted in his honor as opposed to one funeral. Unless he’s somehow made immortal lmao.
- The Burrowers of Khrysalis will absolutely plant something in honor of the Spellbinder should they die. (The Wizard may or may not be immortal, they are the Divine Paradox after all.) As to what they plant…well, that depends on the Wizard. You can reblog and add in the tags/replies what tree or flower you’d want planted after you. Or don’t.
