Writing Lamb’s dialogue is challenging sometimes because it can feel very disjointed but… yeah that’s just how he talks. He thinks too hard to respond properly and focuses on questions rather than interacting with the answers to them. Sometimes he comes off as rude.

Corvidwish & Stagface

Corvidwish’s kithood and yet another piece of Lamb’s early memories.

Do you have any of those fuzzy childhood memories that are awoken by a specific cue? A smell, a word, a place, etc? Like when someone mentions a place you went as a child and the memory of it suddenly comes flooding back… or you catch a scent while walking that teleports you back to age five. That’s what this is meant to be :o)

Blood of the covenant or something… yada yada

There aren’t a TON of things that birds and mammals have in common with each other. I’m very curious to see if anyone will figure it out :o)

Got a little carried away.

Corvidwish is actively trying to figure out the anatomical characteristic that is tied to language (unfortunately, she doesn’t have the internet or textbooks at her disposal)… however, some of you did figure it out! I loved reading your theories, guesses, and all of your reasonings for those theories.

It is based on heart anatomy!

Mammals and extant archosaurs (birds & crocodilians) have four chambered hearts, while reptiles (excluding crocodilians) & amphibians have three chambers and fish have two. Fish lack vocal cords so I think their languages would be built on sounds they produce with their muscles, swim bladders and bones… clicking, vibrations, etc… idk, fishspeak isn’t important to the plot at all but it’s fun to think about!

Four is a good number :o)

biology inspired world building my beloved

finally getting to show off this world’s language system is SO EXCITING!! it’s something I’ve put a lot of thought into and I hope that Corvidwish’s explanation will do it justice <3
