Deinos never really cultivated much in the way of culinary techniques, so I guess this is all very new and exciting for her.

I'm glad the roast corn made her so happy, though.

Whenever humans imagine beings superior to themselves, they usually think of giants or beastmen.
|

[k]
|

|

＠Da Vinci
|

Their tendency is to mix the familiar human form with characteristics no ordinary human could possess.
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|

By that standard, you'd expect Kukulcan to look a lot more like a deinos than a human.

That light struck the Storm Border, sending it crashing down into this underground world known as Mictlān.

That's most likely because this Lostbelt's roots[line 2]that is, the basic idea underpinning it, comes from Central America in Proper Human History.

Now, here's my first observation. Let's dig a little deeper into Central American mythology.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|

In addition to being closely tied to the natural world, Central American mythology also tried to focus on an astronomical perspective; they took a great interest in outer space.
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|

In fact, there are still lots of depictions of rockets pointed towards the sky that remain in Mesoamerican murals and relics today.

Why is that? The magecraft world has a theory.
|

They think the Mayan civilization's interest in outer space may have started with a figure who already knew plenty about it.

Sixty-six million years ago, during the fifth of the big five extinction events...
|

|

|

＠Da Vinci
|

...an enormous meteorite crashed into the Yucatán Peninsula in Central America.
|

[k]
|

The resulting shock wave is believed to have become a massive heat wave which covered the entire planet...

Yup. The earthquake created by the meteorite's impact exceeded a magnitude of eleven, and the resulting tsunamis were easily over three hundred meters tall.

Recently, some people have come to believe that another meteorite landed in West Africa at around the same time...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
...but either way, there's no question about the impact on the Yucatán Peninsula. There's just too much evidence of it.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace D 2]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
There's the hundred and sixty kilometer crater along the peninsula. Iridium, a rare metal, was discovered there too.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
And above all, the enormous underground cavern that was clearly formed by a meteorite impact.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
You see, there are lots of springs called “cenotes” in the Yucatán Peninsula.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
They're essentially very deep pits with groundwater bubbling up at their bottom, which made them crucial sources of water.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
And one of the reasons these cenotes formed in the first place was a result of the changes the meteorite impact had on the bedrock.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Which explains why so many of the cenotes are connected to each other underground, like a giant ant colony.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
See? This means there must have been a massive underground world running beneath the Yucatán Peninsula as far back as sixty-six million years ago.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
For the people living there at the time, the underworld of Xibalba from Maya mythology was very real.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Over time, this underworld myth was brought into Aztec mythology as well, where it was reborn as Mictlān.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace D 10]
|
||
|

|

And the magecraft world believes that the primal fear the locals had of Mictlān wasn't a product of legend...
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
...but because that very real fear was inscribed upon their DNA.
|

[charaFace D 2]

＠Da Vinci
|
||
At any rate, the meteorite came with intelligent life from another planet.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
We don't know whether they used life on Earth as host bodies, like parasites, or if they outright fused with them. Either way, this intelligent life arriving on Earth resulted in the rapid rebirth and development of advanced life on the planet.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
What's more, it did so in ways beings like ourselves[line 2]who reproduce sexually[line 2]could never duplicate.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
These extraterrestrials had to multiply quickly, over a large area, and without pause so they could cover all of Earth.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
And the best way they could do that was via the natural world's most abundant form of life: plants.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
This means the beings which arrived with the meteorite weren't conscious beings, but fungi with the ability to store and convey information.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
They parasitized Earth's plants and helped them to develop their seeds. Once humans came around, they were revered as the incarnations of nature itself.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Those are the roots of all Mesoamerican gods. They would attach to just about anything and lend them their power.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
At times, they probably appeared as natural forces themselves.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Sometimes, I bet they used animals as their host bodies. Other times, I wouldn't be surprised if they used humans.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
In time, the people who would eventually form the Mayan civilization were born. Those who were most compatible with the fungi became priests, kings, and sometimes gods.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
So basically, in the magecraft world, it's believed that it was these fungi...
|

[k]

...which gave the Mayan people their visions of outer space[line 2]the fungi's homeworld.

Well, recently, there HAVE been theories that all fungi on Earth not only share a common language...
|

[k]
|

＠Da Vinci
|

...but that they also communicate through their own underground network. A topic for another time.
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace D 36]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
In retrospect, calling them “fungi” may have been misleading. They more closely resemble the roots of a plant than anything else.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Imagine microscopic life-forms that operate entirely via nerve tissue, and you'd have the right idea. I'd guess they looked a lot like living filaments.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
Anyway, while these fungi, or plant roots, or whatever you want to call them, were able to store and convey information, they weren't able to achieve conscious intelligence on their own.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
It may sound bad, but in many ways, they were like a virus that needs a host body to survive.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci

I think that, by attaching to a host, these beings were able to advance that host's species and secure a livable biosphere.

It doesn't get much rarer than that.
|

|

|
||
In Aztec mythology, Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca often appeared as humans despite being gods.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
But, if Quetzalcoatl was actually god filaments using the king of that age as its host body, then it all makes sense.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
First, these aliens attached themselves to plants, which caused plant life to flourish. This resulted in Central and South America's massive jungles and rainforests.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
They then used the plant roots spread out underground as a nervous system to cultivate all around the world. Over time, they noticed the emergence of humans, Earth's prime species, and oversaw the end of the Age of Gods.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
When these beings' own time ran out and they accepted they would never return to their home in outer space, they decided to entrust their hopes and dreams to their “children” inhabiting the Earth's surface: humans.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Da Vinci
|
||
And that is the story behind the Mayan and Aztec civilizations.
|
||
[k]
|

Their mythology still remembers Earth's big five extinction events, yet doesn't portray them in a negative light.

It's a mythology focused on the rebirth of species, filled with the will to overcome even the worst world-ending disaster.

They of course have the same musculature as dinosaurs, they can camouflage themselves like chameleons, they can communicate telepathically...

[k]
|

|

？！
|

...they're all herbivores despite the diversity in their species, and they can nullify physical impacts using bio-waves.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|

|

It should be impossible for those traits to have evolved on Earth organically. Their high intelligence in particular.

[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace D 20]
|
||
|

I don't mean that it's impossible for them to be smart. I mean that most herbivores simply wouldn't be capable of it.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace D 2]
|

It's just not feasible that at their size, deinos would be able to obtain the required nutrients for survival on an herbivorous diet alone.
|

[k]
|
||
|

Which means the deinos must be replenishing the energy they need via different means.
