🎮 for cironus and kaska if you're still taking them!

Here we go! :D The one for Kaska was super cute to do. She'll be ready to attend the courting event next year, and wanted to visit the pond before then! Who did she meet? 👀 (actually I dont know)

And for Cironus, a continuation of his original one! And laughing because I unintentionally used a similar pose I drew Fat Fin in but it suits because like father, like son haha

Zora May: Hook, Line, and Sinker

Well, that's one way to get me to fly I suppose. Thanks Kaska, I'm gonna be a bit more careful grabbing snacks from now on though!

Kaska is one of @songs-of-the-windfish's Zorca!

A diplomatic discussion over kelp tea? Or are they gossiping? Silvyr and Kaska ( @tides-that-bind-us ) regularly exchange letters, and they aren't afraid to commiserate about the eye rolling behaviors of some of the diplomats they meet, or exchange tips and tricks on how to gain favor. It's nice to have both an ally and friend in a field where one wrong move can wind you up in hot water!

Zora May Prompt: Team Up!

Kaska (Agra19) isn't actually part of this story-- actually, this story is set in an AU of Axidentshappen's that has its own cool story & characters-- but maybe after everything is done Castov would try to get her to try some of the Hylian delicacies he stumbles across.  Everyone likes pastries, right? But… maybe certain people shouldn't be eating them 👀

I'm just here having fun leading everyone on a silly goose chase. Also pardon my mistakes, i didnt feel like fixing them :/Also a friend gave me an idea about how to tie in Marina to my other comic (that she was made for), and create the next boss monster in the story.That's Link's shitty dad from my main line comic >:3

Kaska to any Zorphin of your choice!

"Do you want to sing together?"

That's too forward, Kaska!

"S-sorry! I heard some of you singing and I thought it was lovely. My people love music too! I'm a bard-in-training...well kind of. My other line of work has me very busy. But hearing everyone sing made my heart leap."

She inhaled sharply. Deep breaths, she thought.

"Let me rephrase the question. Would it be alright if I could join in the singing? I'm a bit out of practice so if I'm off key feel free to kick me out, haha!"

Challo: Aww, honey, no need to be nervous! No one would ever kick you out for being off-key! Mast: Yeah! If that was the case, they'd have given me the boot decades ago! Vrelu: Haw haw! Don't we all know it!

Milya: Not a soul here would ever do something so rude as judge you for how you sound, love! Please do feel free to join us!

Vrelu: What's your preference? Lyrics, harmonics, or instrumentals? Challo: To clarify, we don't usually use actual instruments but instead replicate how they sound with our voices. Mast: Yeah! Qwibbon here can perfectly replicate the sound of a strummed guitar! And I'm pretty good at flutes! Milya: What songs do you know, love? Perhaps we can all sing something you are more comfortable with! Vrelu: If we start singing sea shanties, Fjord will be all over us like moss on a rock! Man can't help himself but join in!

The group continues to happily yap on while several pat the rocks beside them as an open invitation.

Kaskians

The Kaska or Kaskians were a tribe of the Pontus, northern Anatolia (today's Turkey), around the Kizil Irmak river mouth, bordering on and constantly harrasing the Hittite empire. That area is mostly mountainous in nature, and there the Kaska occupied simple settlements which presumably formed a loose confederation.

The first recorded appearance of the Kaska in history was during the reign of Hantili I (c. 1590 BCE - 1560 BCE), when they conquered territory including the holy city of Nerik. The city could not be put back under Hittite control until two centuries later.

The Kaska repeatedly penetrated Hittite lands, but never with a permanent occupation, except for the area around Nerik city, which was the gateway between Kaskan and Hittite territories. During Tudhaliya's reign, a major Kaska invasion -maybe concurrently with attacks from other Hittite enemies - led to the brief occupation of the Hittite's capital city, Hattusa, which was burned to the ground (c. 1380 BCE).

The Hittites in turn directed many punitive campaigns against the Kaska territory throughout their history, never being able to subjugate the area. Much of Mursili II's reign (c. 1321 BCE - 1295 BCE), one of the Hittite's greatest kings, was devoted to campaigns against the Kaska. Mursili stated that in his time there was a Kaskan leader called Pihhuniya who acted as king of the Kaska, something never seen before in Kaskan affairs. Occasionally the Hittites and the Kaska chiefs were able to settle treaties of peaceful coexistence, as was the case under Hittite king Arnuwanda I.

The Kaska joined other invaders from afar, the Sea Peoples and the Phrygians, in the final collapse of the Hittie empire c. 1200 BCE. After that, and since Hittite records are our main source about the Kaska, we lose track of them; they fade away as the general political and ethnic landscape in Anatolia changed. They are, however, referenced in the neighbouring Assyrian empire somewhat later, who's king Tiglath-Pileser (c. 1112 BCE - 1072 BCE) fought against Kaskan forces. The last reference to the Kaska comes from the time of the Assyrian king Sargon II around 700 BCE, who also fought them.
