Kolo's Links
Zenny's wicked smart, and also really clever when it comes to magic. He's either really helpful or bogs you down with questions - which, hey, I get the point of morality! But not when it slows down progress.
Dijamant can be misguided, but I believe his heart is in the right place. Though 'overzealous' suits him, sometimes that passion is needed to provide great change to a broken world.
Zve's pretty sweet! I can usually match his energy, though not for TOO long. After I got with Kolo, we don't see much of each other anymore - a lot of my old free time ended up consumed by my new relationship. I should put aside some time for the little guy.
DIJAMANT IS AWESOME!!! Have you seen him swing his lance like SHOOSH and WOOSH and he's super strong!! He said he'd protect us and the whole world from the bad guys and I believe in him!!!!
I've settled down a bit too much to really be Ren's BFF anymore, but he's got Prizma for that, so we're cool. But man do his suggestions sound fun - sometimes you just gotta let loose and blow up a car or something, yanno?
Oh, man, Dij is cool. We don't hang out as much as we used to but we're still on great terms! I'm glad to be back and runnin' around, messing with bastards again!
I don't hate him as much as Prav does, but Dij is still kinda... um, despotic? To put it politely. He's a very my-way-or-the-highway kinda guy, which makes it hard to tolerate him in long sessions. He's better the more people you have around, though.
Kva's alright. He's pretty cute, yeah? Deep in Prav's pocket, so I don't see him much, but I'm endeared to the guy. He's just so upbeat all the time - I like that positive energy!
Hm, what to describe Dijamant with? Brutish, egotistical, bloodthirsty, self-absorbed, prideful? But none of these capture just how pompous and domineering he is all the time! Also I fucking hate him.
Haha, Prav? That ridiculous son of a bitch? Don't make me laugh - he's all bark and no bite. He couldn't actually face me down if his life depended on it.
Dij is a little overwhelming sometimes, but I like him. He's nice to hang around with and pretty protective.
What Bereave did to Trou is absolutely reprehensible. I wish I had known Kolo was gonna go save the guy; I would've helped! But... I'm just glad he's back around. I won't let that fucker touch him again.
Mmmyeah Metara was nice, so what? Lots of people are nice and aren't subservient to people like Narke, Cogito, Ihalas, et cetera. Am I supposed to think he's great for eating out of the hands of abusers?
Ah, Saltis left so very long ago... I hear he's doing just fine, though (and he's very public about that). I'm glad he's truly happy now.
Saltis was the start of it all falling apart. Not him, specifically... my mistreatment of him that led to him leaving. I was such a fool, such a shortsighted fool....
Oh Narke, Narke, Narke... Narke... you are the stupidest motherfucker I have ever seen.
...It was more Saltis' fault than Beytte's. And I guess I appreciate that Beytte took me out, because if he didn't, I wouldn't have met Sires. BUT THAT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT WE AREN'T FRIENDS.
Man... it's almost comical how badly I fucked up with Azamora. I kept trying to apologize to him but they wouldn't let me see him! None of us have really seen him for so long....
Tch. You accidentally smack around a guy once and he has a complete mental break. Azamora's such a drama queen.
SALTIS. Saltis. Where to even FUCKING start with him? Where to begin? You know, I thought he was a good person forever ago! A guy who'd put himself on the line for his mortals! But NO. He's just as selfish and deplorable as the REST of EVERYONE.
Dad's okay. He can be irritable sometimes and he yells a lot. I mean, obviously that's NOT okay, but it's not like I can talk to Sires about it at all or anything. Sigh.
YES THERE ARE TWO AND I LOVE THEM BOTH SHUT UP
Dad can be emotional at times, but I still respect him greatly. He, like Sires and I and Agie, are Immortal. We're going to have each other forever, and so we must love and care for one another, despite our flaws.
Look, I was just - I was just really emotional when I magicked up the egg, okay? I mean, Oarie isn't like... he's not bad, I love him and... AUGH SHUT UP
Right, Phynor's successor. Supposedly godly of some sort. I'm going to call bullshit on that, pardon my words. He's an Immortal, granted, but so was I, and so was Phyton. It's not anything special; it's mere genetics. I pay attention to modern advancements!
Phyton... was long dead by the time I was born. Phynor had little that was kind to say about him, but the other ants practically worshipped the places Phyton had once stood. I wonder what I would've thought of him, had we ever met....
Sprig never figured out Osage is immortal of some sort, but I mean, they never talked about when he died in school, and they mention when Phynor and Phyton died. So he's just stupid. We don't see a lot of Osage anyways; he just kinda keeps to himself. I get it. If I was famous I wouldn't wanna be bothered by randoms either.
Ah yes, Cleverly's current internal manager! I always keep track of them - they're very important to alert during emergencies, or if Cleverly isn't available. Unfortunately I don't know much about them - there's been so many, it's hard to keep track of individuals anymore.
Osage followed Phynor in succession, and his rule was known for peace, scientific advancements, and the birth of liberal arts. It's mandatory education, taught to all young Clover aner. Most people aren't told that he's still prowling the halls, though! I nearly fell over when Cleverly introduced us!
Ah, yes, Commander of the Army! Unfortunately I couldn't pick him out of a crowd, but I believe we have met. Didn't he fall right over in shock? I don't always get such extreme reactions, but that was a delight! I may have laughed.
Osage is another older guy that, luckily, I managed to convince to trust that I'm not a god, just a mortal that happens to look like one. Maybe he knows... ah well. He doesn't bother me about it and he ain't sticking his nose in my business, so I think it's fine. He's pretty nice, anyways.
Cleverly and I are indeed friends! I was shocked when someone so similar to a god appeared... it was divine intervention, no? Of course I would hand over the colony to someone else like me, who had been touched by our lost guardians. Also, he's quite sweet.
I dunno. You can call Phyton a lot of things. Evil, ambitious, heroic, intelligent. I think he was kinda all of them at once. He did a lot of good, y'know? If he didn't exist, Clover Colony wouldn't. But... he did bad things, too. I just wish we didn't try to rugsweep them.
The god of luck, our patron, Cleverly Clover. He was always skittish, but his blessings were strong and always honest. I kept a little idol of him in my bags when we went on raids and whatnot.
Despite all that Phynor did to spread the truth about Firset, I don't think the true retelling of the tale is all that common anymore. But I remember! And I've been trying to spread the real story wherever I can. It's pretty hard actually!
Yes... that name is familiar. The god of luck, yes? Oh, I saw so little of the gods... I know he was a patron of ours, I believe... ah, I wondered for so many years if perhaps IT had been divine retribution for failing to pay proper respects.
...Even now, I can't stop thinking about him. Do you know what that can do to you? After millennia, mulling over motives, over intentions, over every conversation you had with a man you once trusted with your life? I trusted wrong. I trusted terribly. If I had seen that rot in Phyton's eyes from the start... I would have never left joined his sordid, blood-soaked cause.
Firset was an idea man. He could weave dreams and fantasies like no other, spend hours waxing poetic about wondrous future. But he lacked the drive and focus to see any of his goals through... and that is where I assisted. There was nothing more to our relationship or friendship.
I'm terribly sorry. I can't seem to recall that name.
OK. I don't know much about how ghosts and them work, but I dunno. If my murderer was prowlin' the livin' I'd be restless as fuck. So yeah. Hope the guy is resting in peace.
Yes... I was born well into Phynor's reign. I remember being raised to be terrified of him; he supposedly was completely unpredictable in battle and would do highly reckless things that always seemed to work in his favor. Yet, by the time I took over Abyssal, he had died. So strange to think about... people like that, gone.
Abyssal? The fish freaks? Yeah I don't know anythin' about them 'cept that they are fish.
