Metalbournes/robots have a certain "language" in Arrendo
Their names are spelt in two ways, a "robot" one and an English one. Say for example a metalbourne's name is "KL-41123" and the pronunciation/ English version is "Claire"
Every other metalbourne will spell the name out as KL-41123 in their speech bubbles or captions but a fleshbound or spellcast will spell it out as Claire (unless they speak robot)
Come quando ti giro intorno, come un satellite artificiale.

Light Plague happened when people abused a heal-all medicine then because of that, sunlight makes people mutate now
People in LP refer to the plague as "Sol's Wrath" and "Light Plague" is just a term Morter uses
Anyways, the sun is significant in the Jellaverse. One day it just makes a lot of flares that it makes it hotter in earth and the mutations gained strength from it
This is now the SunRun phase
Occasionally it does this. Those we are left from the previous run gotta deal with it again and again
Eventually
Boom
Wipe out
Except it didn't
Now we're at When The Moon Is Bright
Cryogenic frozen people thawed from the final SunRun. They are test subjects and prisoners so they never experienced the plague. They know nothing about it. All they know is that they woke up and everything is dark. They managed to survive because of the supplies left with them
Every now and then, multiple stars align and shines on the broken moon from time to time and it makes the people's town visible. There is no more main gravitational pull so earth and the other planets just scrample around
Jupiter and Saturn collided 😔
Still tho, the brighter eternal nights last for at least two weeks. People then celebrated it.
But as time goes by, sorting people by richness still came back. Just human nature yknow? And a bad one at that
Three generations past and now we're at the part where the main plot happens. The story of Whitney Barnes trying to seduce Carilda Morsely while Spencer de Terraine follows him around.
And these people don't have to deal with mutations coming back after death, they revive when they get sunlight. Since there's no air vitamin D anymore, it just looks like a mortal to them.
Years passed and the little town slowly dies out. They have the calmest deaths in the entire Jellaverse
Then even more years past
30 million even
Arrendos formed, new life formed. Heck earth got two new suns (unnamed as of now)
this is how life and death works in Arrendo
When a person dies, their soul will be sent to a spirit world where everything is pale but pink
where it is serene
the spirit world has uncanny "trees" that are actually straight lines that branches off by 90 degrees. these trees peak endlessly at the sky. In the spirit world, the dead will be met with the Soul Walker who will give them their peace before carrying on
Soul Walker is like a therapist and a judge but he isn't to decide when a soul can pass to the other side. Only his father, time will tell. Decarfiin is to fill the emptiness that people still have from when they were alive or at least patch it up enough.
when a soul is ready, they will meet a mother raven entity (unnamed yet) who will wrap the soul with cloth, the cloth will harden and turn into an egg. Inside the egg, is the soul being reborn but at the same time, given a flash of the life that they deserve. It only lasts a second in real time but to the soul inside it, it's a lifetime
The flash will depend on the morality and ethics of the soul and whether they are genuinely good or not. It isn't judged by actions, it is judged by intention. It is also judged based on awareness because sometimes you may accidentally harm someone else even with no ill in mind, when you know when to admit mistakes.
but it isn't black and white. There is no such thing as a perfect life inside the egg, it only shows what happens when the world is fair to you. All that needs to be known is that a good person will have a MOSTLY good illusion while a bad person will have a mostly bad illusion.
when that second is over, the egg is laid among the living as a rock. Arrendos believes that any rock destroyed not by the hands of the living meant that a soul is ready to live with them again.
A babe's first breath is a soul entering the body and they will be welcomed back
Okay quick explanation so people would get the concept
Arrendo is a massive continent that forms after the sun exploded, humanity dies, hell, everything died after the SunRun (the sucky name of the explosion)
Anyways, Pangaea vol.2 is formed and instead of evolving normally, magic is involved because someone in the past accidentally opened a portal to another world that brought magic creatures into Earth.
Arrendo is divided into nine kingdoms. Five on the ground, three for the sea and one for the castle in the sky
The rulers for these divisions are
King Klosis the Colossal
The Graceful Queen Glacia
Guardian Hawpture
Clockmaster Elchenai
Queen Harg and The second vessel
Captain Jalt-Brenatik
Commander Gattle
The Prime Radicus
Lady Scavienne of the Skies
There are three types of Arrendos (it's not Arrendians or anything. It's "Arrendos" cuz in their world, it's actually just "Arrendo's" without the apostrophe as in the people belong to the land)
-Flesh-bounds
Those who are organic or naturally birthed
-Spellcasts
Those who are brought to Arrendo with magic or summoned of life
-Metalbournes
Unlike the other two, they do not have souls because they're just robots. However, they still act as if they have souls
