  Character Used: Story Snippet (1) (PAST) POV: Cristin “Congratulations, little Cristin,” a feminine voice warped by time speaks to the small boy, grasping his hand and leading him to a crystal table, sparkling with purple light, which cast onto the pillars of marble supporting the white roof of the building. “You are now old enough to begin the wondrous journey of your studies, a time where you will grow in the image of our perfect future, and make everyone around you proud.” The boy remembers the words that would soon shape and bend him, yet for that moment the greatest feeling he could properly describe was the warmth of that hand in his, and the gentle smile of the one whose other features were now erased. The Chandalyn unfolds her other hand to display a small and beautifully shaped purple crystal. Carefully placing it on the table, she whispers to Cristin, but his young mind is too distracted to properly grasp what she was saying. “This is the crystal that holds your future,...

(PAST) POV: Cristin. “Cristin… what are you doing…” Cristin immediately recognized his Aide’s echoed voice from behind him, and squinted at the purple blur it seemed to be coming from as he turned around. “What in Crystalys have you done with your glasses young man? Do you know how hard those were to procure in this society?” Cristin blinked hard to clear his vision before looking dejectedly to the floor. “Why do some of us get bad crystals?” Eed sighed, “unbelievable.”  Her form bent down toward Cristin’s downturned view, and he felt her smooth hand slowly ease his small face up toward hers. “Cristin,” she said, switching languages, “whoever made a comment on your crystals probably has one uglier than yours.” “But-“ “I want no ‘buts,’” Eed says, recovering her usu...

  Card used: Story Snippet (?) (PAST) POV: Cristin. “‘Shimozvi,’ in the Old Xemish dialect, is a word without any direct translation to the Common Chandalyn language, but I suppose you could sum it up to someone relaying to an acquaintance that they are momentarily leaving.”  “You suppose, or you know?” Eed crystallizes out of thin air next to Cristin. “You do love talking to yourself.” “Why shouldn’t I, you’re always paying attention.” Cristin gets up from his desk, Eed trailing closely behind, “besides, it helps me remember.”  “No matter, you haven’t answered my first question,” Eed taps the stone tablet, “When translating between parties, you must be sure of what you are relaying to them, one slip can cause a complete misunderstanding.” Cristin turns to look at his Aide, “Of course, this being a dead language in all, I won’t be relaying these words to anyone.” “That is not the point.” “Why am I learning Old Xemish anyway, there’s so many more useful languages I could b...

  Card used: Story Snippet (1) (PAST) POV: Eed. “Exhausting, isn’t it, they just don’t know how to sit still like the older ones do.” Eed watched with arms crossed as the five year old Chandalyn in front of her waved his legs back and forth, violently sucking down his violet slushy with extra crystal chunks through the thick marble straw, “Slow down Cristin, the inside of your throat may be thick but you can still choke on stupidity.”  Cristin paid her no attention from the other side of the walkway, quietly listening to the other kids as they talked about their crystals. “What’s exhausting is that for the past five Chandalyn years I’ve had to call you Purple Eed, and the other over there Blue Eed, I swear it’s like these little creatures will die if at least three of them don’t use that name for every group of five.” “So smart yet so unoriginal,” the Aides chorused, shaking their heads. “Ava, you don’t get to talk, not only were you given a unique name, but you were blessed w...

(This File has been edited by: Bellavenna)  Aides Every Chandalyn has an Aide, a crystal creature tasked with taking care of their ‘intellectual’ needs, they are crafted by the kid’s mind and always hover around them. They are created with all the intelligence and knowledge their ‘kid’ will need to know, and shatter when they have ‘done their job,’ they are more robotic than human in a sense. Besides the Caretakers, the Aides are the closest things to a parental figure a Chandalyn will ever know. An Aide, as they are an extension of a Chandalyn’s mind, are tethered to their ‘child’; basically they can materialize at will but cannot go too far from their host without dissolving back towards the Chandalyn.  ( Ive always wondered though, where do Aides go to? A pocket dimension? Does that even exist? ) It has never been understood whether or not an Aide has an actual conscience or not, as some are known to portray Chandalyn behaviors. It is not understood, however, whether their ...

  Card used: Chapter 1: The Stange Visitor  Story Snippet ( 1 ) | POV: Cristin. The Chandalyns of Crystalys have never known a day of disruption in their lives, the streets remain calm as the scholars begin from their rooms to their designated studies, the soft patter of shoes walking on polished granite, their Aides hovering around them, periodically whispering to them. No word is uttered to the classmate beside them, and none ever would, if it weren’t for the giggling toddlers disregarding their dismayed Aides to prance around outside the nursery.  Yes, the inhabitants of the Amethyst House had never known any different day, and this went for Cristin as well, who had been walking towards his study room, preparing for his day of Language studies, when an abnormally loud jumble of screeches and giggles echoed from the crowd of exasperated toddlers. When did that ever happen? No Aide would ever allow such a sound from the mouth of any Chandalyn, and yet the Aides themselve...

 Chanadalyn Brace A back brace mandatory for all (Chandalyns) under 18 to wear for all hours except sleeping hours, beginning at the age of 7, made with polished marble and adorned with crystals in a Diamond shape down the back. It gives off an uncomfortable zap if proper posture is not met. “For to have proper posture is to display the utmost respect to your superiors.” .     .     .    .    .    A small snore slipped the lips of the young Chandalyn as he drooped down to rest on his desk, quickly followed by a surprised yelp as the youth jolted back up into proper posture, the sleepiness gone in an instant.  “Forgot about your brace again did you?” Eed asked with a small ‘hmph.’ “serves you right, perhaps now you’ll learn when the proper time is to study and when to sleep. Off you go then, we’ve done enough today.” Cristin slipped off the chair to go wash off, giving a small mumble in the process.  “Well, now I’m not tire...

  (This File has been edited by: Bellavenna) The Houses The six houses are large mansion-esc buildings surrounding the Capital, each one on a different floating island; they are the pillars of Crystalys, as it is where every single youth is housed until 18 Chandalyn years (36 Human years), the time when they will finally enter into society. Each house is focused on specific (and a few miscellaneous ) job categories, and a Chandalyn’s crystals will determine which House they will be raised in. The job descriptions for each house is, however, different then the average planet’s probably would be, as Chandalyns rarely need to focus on surviving (not needing to worry about eating or diseases and such, being the only living organisms in their Ecosystem makes things quite easy for them), so most of their jobs are focused specifically on the betterment and perfection of their society and culture.  The House Stereotypes  Due to the fact that all Chandalyns in a certain House neve...

  Overview Connection to the Portal System: Disconnected  Planet size: Small Notable vegetation: None Notable Creatures: Chandalyns, Aides (There are no other known living organisms on this planet) Crystalys is a planet made of a bunch of different  colored crystal structures and cascading waterfalls. As it is one of the only substances they have to build with, the inhabitant’s buildings are all made of crystal, that and polished stone and marble.
