Villager: Zylia

Zylia had watched the beings for a very long time as they went about to and fro whether it was on their own planets, others' planets, or even simply traversing the stars. Zylia had always existed, ever since the beginning of time, and their knowledge was abundant and never-ending. But somehow there was one thing that Zylia had no knowledge of - something that the being wanted more than anything else.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zylia had always been curious, but one day it was such that curiosity... simply got the better of Zy. And so it was that Zylia fell.

When Zylia came within reach of the ground it was impossible not to stare in awe. The ground was shimmering in the light of the stars, nearly glowing beneath Zy as the light bounced back from a beautiful white expanse. There were many beings roaming the land and even the sea and the air, but there was one in particular that was extra fascinating and had always caught Zy's eye. In the many years that Zylia had observed the existence of... everything... The Embyans had always held a special place compared to all others that had come.

And so it was that as Zylia touched down upon the land and the snow, the magic that was Zy's very existence reformed and reshaped the being so as that a soul slowly formed and hardened into gleaming orbs and flesh and fur grew into existence around these orbs. As the magic sunk deeply within the the form with every beat of the heart and breathe of the lungs newly formed, Zylia was born anew.

Marveling at the magnificence of being alive, of being flesh and blood, of being an Embyan, Zylia could not offer even a sliver of regret for the breadth of knowledge slowly fading out of reach. For Zylia was aware that for any being that lived there would always be more to learn, more to experience. In fact, Zy had been utterly fascinated by a particular invention that had been used in recent times for storing and sharing and learning knowledge - something called a book.

And so looking around and still admiring the snow glimmering under paws, Zy was convinced that the first order of business would be to find a suitable burrow here in this region and then venture out to make contact and start acquiring these books that seemed to promise so much fuel for further curiosity...
