Since my brain is on Bionicle right now, here's something that just occurred to me: could Tren Krom have been inspired by Annona, or rather the form he ends up being in? Both are immensely powerful psychic beings, and are described as having a tentacled appearance.

IDK if there's more I could draw from this, but I just find this interesting. Maybe kind of like the Great Beings are inadvertently paying homage to the entity that accidentally "inspired" them.

Olive Oil

In the ancient Roman world, olive oil was far more than a simple cooking ingredient. It was a cornerstone of civilization.

Used for lighting lamps, as a base for perfumes and medicines, and as a fundamental foodstuff, it permeated every level of society.

The Roman diet relied heavily on it, and it was a key item in the "annona", the state-sponsored dole for citizens.

Its economic importance was immense. Vast olive groves, particularly in provinces like Hispania and North Africa, fueled a massive trade network.

Amphorae filled with oil were shipped across the Mediterranean, with Monte Testaccio in Rome — a hill made of broken oil amphorae — standing as a silent testament to the scale of this commerce.

Olive oil also held profound cultural and social significance. It was used in religious rituals, for personal hygiene in baths, and as a prize for victorious athletes.

The quality of oil one consumed was a direct indicator of social status.

Ultimately, the story of olive oil is the story of Rome itself — its economy, its daily life and its vast, interconnected empire.

If Bionicle g1 continued, would have Lewa been mind controlled more?

probably once or twice

definitely many more times

Annona and Teridax would be brought back just to mind control leaf boy

we'd get weekly stories of the toa nuva chasing down a mind controlled Lewa

what are you looking at? Did you expect a "no" option?

Sly and Carmelita's kids

I have two fankids for Sly and Carmelita. The name of a hybrid between a raccoon and a fox is called a foxcoon. Therefore, Sly and Carmelita are parents of two foxcoons. 1 daughter and 1 son.

The oldest is daughter Annona Cooper. Middle name: Marie. She's a grey-furred foxcoon with black rings. She has her mother's beautiful face. She has light brown eyes. Her tail is of a raccoon that has ring stripes. Her ears are of a fox. She has voluminous autumn/burnt orange hair that may either be due to the color of her mom's fur or an inherited feature from her maternal grandmother or maternal great-grandmother. And she definitely has her father's birth black mask around her eyes. Sly and Carmelita's daughter Annona Marie Cooper was born November 5, 2008.💎🦝🍁🦊🩶

The youngest is son Clyde Cooper. Middle name: Connor. His has his father's handsome face. He's an orange foxcoon with black rings. He has dark blue hair. His eyes are brown. He has raccoon ears. He has a fox tail only with the ring stripes. And of course, like his older sister, he was born with their dad's black mask around the eyes. Sly and Carmelita's son Clyde Connor Cooper was born September 14, 2010.🔶🦊🔗🦝⭐

Yosh, I'm happy to share my SlyFox babies with you fans!

so i discovered an important bionicle lore tidbit, and once again, greg misusing words has resulted in something very funny:

OnionShark asks: "Since Sahmad mistook Anonna for a male, is it safe to assume she has a masculine voice?" and greg answers: "She has an asexual voice"

so i guess:
