i talk about salt and how much i associate him with ants a lot, but another animal i don't think i've mentioned ( bc i don't have a lot of complex thoughts about it atm ) is bats

#//idk something about poor vision and sound/silence and his assigned human body part being the ears and bats being highly social animals #//and my vaguely vampire - like ideas surrounding him #( 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐆𝐍 ) out of character.

heat? all he's had the past few days is torrential downpour. good for the land, bad for a cookie whose primary ingredient is salt.

various headcanons about kala namak and the surrounding area

the salt flatlands ( also called the salt plains, the saltlands, and the land of silence ) make up a large portion of beast - yeast, sitting dead center in the continent and containing the largest salt pan on earthbread. if one wants to travel by land, they act as something of a barrier, separating the domains of sugar and spice from that of milk and flour, as well as the faerie kingdom.

in spite of their size, the plains are mostly uninhabited ( and in present day, largely considered to be deadlands ) ;; kala namak is the only notable settlement. with blistering hot and humid summers, freezing cold winters, high wind speeds, frequent temperature swings, and earthbread so densely saturated with salt, it is nigh impossible for anything to survive on it's own.

kala namak lake is one of the only bodies of water on the surface of the saltlands, and a deeply important site to the knights. it sits near the border of the spicelands, making the trip long and arduous -- and as such, it's become something of a pilgrimage for squires that have passed the trials. one last test, before they are granted their lord commander's power. the body of water itself is a deep, hypersaline lake with a brine pool at it's very bottom.

the city of kala namak is one of the largest single settlements on beast - yeast, protected by high walls and home to the knights of kala namak and the salt of solidarity himself. on the surface, it doesn't seem nearly as large or as densely packed as it should be -- but because of the extreme weather conditions that plague the saltlands most of the year, a vast majority of the city was built underground. there are three " levels " to kala namak: the surface, primarily used for keeping animals and trade ;; the main city, located in the vast cookie - made caverns below the surface, where most people live ;; and the catacombs, where the dead are laid to rest, the knights recieve their orders or participate in the trials, and where the salt of solidarity's personal quarters are located.

the catacombs are not a stagnant tunnel system. they shift and move and rearrange at the will of the salt of solidarity, with identical halls and few landmarks to make navigation as difficult as possible. the only ones that can get around with any ease are those connected to the light of solidarity. they are restricted from public access for this reason.

there are several grand places of worship in both the surface and the main city, dedicated to the witches and the other virtues alike.

the salt of solidarity didn't choose the saltlands as his base of operations at first ( prior to the creation of the city and the knights, he was completely nomadic. ) why would he? it's a dangerous landscape with few natural resources, damn near incapable of sustaining life, and frankly a pain to travel through. not an ideal location, to be certain, but. that's where people were struggling the most. for one reason or another, people chose to call the flatlands their home, and they were struggling -- so he chose to settle down there with them.

in present day, what's left of kala namak's surface is in ruins, due to age, lack of upkeep, and exposure to the elements. a large chunk of the city has collapsed into the otherwise untouched caverns below.

also something about by11 that i didn't actually notice until now, he totally DID murder innocents in the kala namak massacre. there was only one non - knight survivor that we saw, who we 100% know died, that WASN'T killed by any of the invading army. the beast usurpers obviously didn't care too much about taking out civilians, but it was pretty explicit that their targets were the knights -- and they ceased their attack after the last knight fell. so, anyone that didn't evacuate to the catacombs ( the only group of survivors, that has been noted to be small ) could very well have survived the initial attack ;; just to be taken out by salt himself. fun!

#//like the spirits being afraid of him isnt a matter of ~the passage of time~ and ~poor memory~. he killed them.#//either way he committed MASS murder. but some of the jam on his armor was that of those he swore to protect. another betrayal to the list #//idk maybe this was obvious and i just missed it but i do think its Inch Resting #( 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐆𝐍 ) out of character.

//self projection final boss

#//aka i rewatched by11-12 for the millionth time #//i love that half the shit he says when hes angry makes just as much sense directed at himself #( 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐆𝐍 ) out of character.

the light of solidarity went quiet because the salt of solidarity continuously chose his duty over the other virtues. over, and over, and over again, he put his purpose before his peers, before himself, to the point where he didn't even realize he had abandoned his virtue. he was too committed to his servitude to the witches, and what he believed they wanted, even after they vanished. he was not acting out of solidarity -- but obedience. anyway,

#//important again #( 𝐈 𝐀𝐌 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐀 𝐕𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐋 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐆𝐎𝐎𝐃 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓 ) headcanon.#//he was the last to fall to corruption yes #//but he was the first to lose track of his virtue. and that was the first domino to fall.#//he Was Not There for the other virtues and that is so unbelievably important to what happened #//they had no one to confide in. if the embodiment of solidarity was telling them to suck it up what would the OTHERS say?#//how much worse would their reactions be?#//or something
