God I love your worldbuilding.
Suddenly interested in this new “variety” of Yinglet. Wondering if maybe we’ve seen one of these poison-boys before…
The fluffgrubs are kinda cute.
That note for the Fluffgrub should be added to plenty of English names of animals. Hyenas that aren’t hyenas, eagles that aren’t eagles, otters that aren’t otters and so on. Some are more obvious than the others, like everyone knows guinea pig is not a pig (or does everyone…?), but you would have a hard time trying to explain to people while axolotl is not a name for the species but the larvae state of some of the species. Or why the sugarglider is not a squirrel. And why bald eagle isn’t even the real eagle. Same for some non-fox “foxes” out there. Gray fox or bat eared fox are not foxes at all. But it’s more than just stubbornly using the name. A lot of people call them that and think it’s correct, not just because they are used to the names. The latter is actually fine, but the former… well…
oh joyus day, more worldbuilding for this amazing series!!!
Ran is clearly peeved about the fluffgrub’s name, but at least he’s not ticked. Who knows what a tick from a field guide entry like this would to to you?
