#loudkill

I don't know if this was already asked but I remembered that Stonekrovns seem to be names after traits or something that happened (i.e. Boneslav <- loves bones) and that the name can change (Songjav -> Grimjav because of the injury) and was wondering how common the latter is?

In that vein I was also wondering what Loudkill (fave girl, I'd really want to cuddle her) did and what her name was before that or if that's her first name (because the mental image is kinda fun)

Sorry if this ask is a word vomit ^^" I really like GS and its worldbuilding

Also I saw the ask where you answered that you like sheep and goats in art and wanted to recommend Corpse to you before I had to pause and stare at my phone for a bit

It's not very common, but common enough that there'll always be couple of name changers in one group. A life changing event is most often the inspiration for a name change, but nobody will bark if you just choose that a new name suits you better.

Puppy krovns have one word names, Loudkill was Loud, because she was one loud child. Her sister Gutpull might've been Pull, or something entirely different before her very cool stunt during hunting. Boneslav's first name was lav, Love. Because he was very much loved!

Krovn puppies have one word name, then a full name that might or might not change during their life. Song > Songmouth > Grimjav, Lav > Boneslav

This one:

Thank you!

1) Usually animal characters behave like us, so they have a fear or rejection of what's different. Are Stonekrovnes the opposite? Or is it just Bones's family? Or is it just that he was too indescribably cute as a puppy?

2) In the comic Boneslav once said something like "Weak heart gave me sheltered life in the mountain." and his face made me think he felt guilty or something about the special treatment he got, is that true? If so, why?

2.a) I know we haven't really seen much of Loudkill's mouth family dynamics but during that whole chase scene, Boneslav seemed to be treated the same as everyone else. I mean I'm quite ignorant about the condition so I hope this is not too dumb, but if you have a weak heart and you were sheltered, I wouldn't expect your family to let you run around a lot chasing/hunting others down. And when he was granted his quest to go with the gang, nobody seemed especially worried about him or doubted he could do it. So how was he exactly sheltered?

Thank you for your work. 💛

They just thought Boneslav was really cute (like every puppy, but him being tiny made him extra cute), and his runty look just made everyone more protective of him. Stonekrovns are very tightly knit together, big and small.

Boneslav has been shown vaguely embarrassed in multiple scenes so far, and it indeed is because he doesn't want outsiders to think he's coddled or incompetent. Despite his stony face, he wants to keep up appearances.

My goal in life is to go to the snorkmimimi land just as hard as Loudkill went

One has shaggy, downward facing fur. The other is spiky and upward. Love them so much aha

2-Did Helevise really make them lose their halves and their wombs because she played with them?

3-Why don't you teach them how to become a God-Caller?

4-What do she mean they were doomed from start?

5-Why doesn't Eve speak/talking to Antaras?

6-Why is Gitta blaming and bullying Usma as if she had anything to do with what happened? Or she doesn't like Usma's act

7- what do Loudkill mean "Have you"lost your rocks"" "they hung low and hevy"

Who knows! It's a pretty respected title.

Helevise gave them a choice to trade their halv and ability to carry fawns to get a chance at being god-callers. It was a trick to see how they'd choose, and they chose wrong. Refusing to sacrifice their halves would've been the right choice. Helevise lost her last bits of interest to teach them after that.

I'm just the author man

Who knows

She's jealous Usma is not being shunned as much as Gitta and Prue are.
