to me elemental creatures are just one big ‘brain’ lumped together of elemental essence and made of memories

slimes are simple and small because they’re not made out of much and have no capability for thought. hypostasis cubes are intelligent, but wield a form that does not allow for much communication with the world—they are beyond the nature and humanity of the world (cube shaped)

memories shape experiences shape communication. sylvie, as someone who was born among humans from their very first breath, has always had humanity shape them and their memories, which are a wealth of 5000 years of life (minus 1000 for their coma)

a bodily injury, although severing the ‘brain’ that is their body, does not remove their memories because their whole body retains all of it. corruption and corrosion of it through abyssal energy, if not effectively removed in a timely manner while supplying them with more energy, will erode memories. dispersal of their body for too long outside of their skin/a sturdy form will result in their memories ‘seeping’ back to the natural flow of the leylines and elements, leaving them with gaps that eventually will result in their personality getting corroded too far

death to an elemental being is a loss of the memories and experiences that make you who you are

#[ augh my brain is still on that ask LMFAO ]#[ physical death is not rlly something that can kill sylvie ]#[ but the loss of their memories and experiences will ]#[ or u know. nuking their whole body also works in a way nothing is left behind ]#[ or nuking them so bad they can’t reform their body in time so their memories disperse back into the land ]#[ i guess u could technically reform them thru irminsul in that way ]#[ but you’d need to painstakingly 1. know how to manipulate irminsul 2. find their memories ]#ooc // aid talks.#[ and u know not have it corrupted cause then those aren’t recoverable ]
