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.

CONFESSION:
Even after all these years when my Shepard enters the Afterlife on Omega, I always groove to that music. And after all these years it still sounds great.

A Yukon judge has handed a partial victory to First Nations who said they weren't adequately consulted over a proposed mine project in Kaska territory in southeast Yukon. But the court also found that the federal and territorial governments largely met their duty to consult throughout the environmental assessment process.
[...]
The First Nation argued that the consultation process for the proposed mine in southeast Yukon was unfair and inadequate, as the Crown allegedly listened to Kaska concerns but failed to meaningfully address and incorporate them. The Kudz Ze Kayah project is about 260 kilometres northwest of Watson Lake, Yukon, on Kaska traditional territory.

Bonus!
Shoutout to @werewolfsister for coming up with Sardon's human design. Bottom right scene based off a panel from this post!
Another prompt on @prisiidon's list was Hylian AU! I had a few ideas on what Cironus could look like and it was fun to tackle. Was getting a lot of inspiration from Dionysus from Hades with a laid back demeanor, charming smile, and a bit of a flirt! This was done with marker, and colored pencil on watercolor paper so don't mind the texture! :]

#11 for Sardon!
What was your inspiration for your OC?
It sounds like a cop out to say but a real wild orca inspired him!
He's based on a 45 year old orca named Chainsaw! Sardon's dorsal is drawn after his unique jagged one. He's a long lived orca (I think most males live to their thirties)and very popular because of his dorsal C:
I don't think anyone knows how Chainsaw got his scars but I liked the idea of Cironus having a big brother with scars that told a story of his rough life. And from there thats how I started developing his character!
#the zorca#asks#thank you for sending one!#cironus isnt based on an actual orca like sardon and kaska are

I love Horror, but animals didn’t do anything to deserve getting Got in Horror movies. More often than not, it’s just there for shock value & gore factor-- when animals can be so much more in the plot of horror instead.
characters like Beast (The Hills Have Eyes), the border collie (Dog Soldiers)-- where you can have animals as actual characters & make them plot important
& borrowing from “The Rules of Horror,” they just don’t deserve getting mangled
#this is just my opinion#that's why the animals are plot important in my horror stuff#shane and kaskae don't get killed by monsters#they're Heroes

Someone asked me where Castov normally hangs out, when he's not saving damsels in distress. He migrates up & down the coast of Hyrule, which means he's definitely had run ins with @capybonara's zorca pod during their annual migrations!
He's been alive a long time (but not longer than Papa Dosi!) so it's entirely possible he's seen babies like Sardon, Cironus, Kaso, and Kaska be born & grow up! Lurona & the moms think he's a little odd, but he makes up for it by being a pretty good babysitter.
Bit of a capricious fellow...!
Oop haha what?! Dosi's got a good nose (and electroreceptive senses) for this kind of thing. How exciting for baby Cironus!!
But one time he was wrong...
...was predicting Kaska! Thrown off by her leucism, maybe? Just having an off day! He'll never live it down. "I got bamboozled by a baby?!"
Technically Castov can't see or stare since he's blind as a bat, but those keen senses practically give him a second set of eyes underwater.
The Zorca and their Migration Routes
Brain zoomies strike again but I wanted to add visual aid to these particular bits of story that have been running in my brain. Putting it all under a cut FOLLOW ME!
Spring: Lanayru Sea
Taking the events going on in @werewolfsister's comic, the relationship between the Domain and the Zorca have grown. Sardon, Cironus, Kaska ,and sometimes little Kaso, have become frequent visitors while their pod remains out in the bay and ocean area.
The water ways allowed Sardon and Cironus to get into all sorts of trouble when they were younger.
When they were just starting to test the limits of how far they could go from their pod, and small enough not to alarm other hyrulian races(mistaken for slightly taller zora boys) They came upon Kakariko Village by chance and during the late hours of the night raided a pumpkin patch and devoured everything. Not knowing they were the reason the present day Olkin is so protective of them. Maybe one day they can go back and make amends somehow…
The end of spring marks their next journey along with their big courting event!
Summer: Akkala Sea
As spring comes to a close, other pods start to converge in Lanayru so they can all make the trip together to Akkala. The main reason for this is for their courting event called Turning the Wheel. Which is a metaphor for life and death cycles, as well as their destination, the Rist Peninsula!
The younger zorca who are of age participate in a race to get to the end of the spiral at Rist Peninsula. But it's less about who gets there first and more about who they end up racing side by side with ("the treasure is the friends you make along the way!"). Older zorca take their time because they're socializing with old friends and previous partners. Those who participate in the game usually arrive a day earlier before the main group.
The pairings can come about unexpectedly! A zorca may hit it off with someone as they race. Or it can be planned, where partners agree to race together. There's no shame for anyone reaching the end without a partner though as they can try next season.
Non-zorca partners are allowed to participate in this event as well. Couples don't have to finish the race either, if they want to, they can break away and join the slower group, or head off together for more private entertainments. But a many enjoy reaching the end because once the entire group reaches the center of the peninsula they have their own party with food and singing to mark the start of summer!
Cironus and Sardon have played the game several times, and always reached the end solo. To avoid the matchmaking attempts by his grandmother, Sardon found a way to avoid courting by simply being faster than anyone trying to keep pace with him. Cironus enjoys the thrill of the game but no one has matched his pace either.
Once the summer of love is over its time to move on to...
Autumn: Necluda Sea
This is an especially important time for pregnant zorca! Their pregnancy can take over a year, so those who participated in last years courting event are ready for babies and need to be prepared for what's to come.
@werewolfsister's Domain of the Sunken Garden is located between the South East coast of Hyrule and Eventide Island. The Zorca have done gift exchanges with Oley and Tajin since the zorca themselves cannot reach the depths of their home.
Somewhere south of Eventide Island is where the Zorca perform their burial rites. When an individual passes, no matter the season, the pod travels to these waters to lay them down to rest in a whale fall event.
When the temperature shifts, and due dates are getting nearer its time to head on...
Winter: Faron Sea
Faron Sea is where the Zorca go to have their babies! Every baby born is a precious addition to their pod since the Zorca are so few in number. New and experienced mothers work over time with hunting and everyone else pitches in to help care for the little ones. The nursery is closely guarded, and anyone who doesn't have business there sticks around in the open waters.
Because the villagers of Lurelin fish in the same waters, the Zorca offer their assistance in any way they can, by helping them catch fish or chasing off monsters!
When spring rolls around again, they say goodbye to their friendly neighbors, and the newborns are strong enough to make the trip back to Lanayru to begin the seasons all over again.
#Zora#zora oc#zorca#lurona#baby#kaska#castov#crunchie munchie baby#this was meant as a joke and now look where we are haha#Werner Herzog voice: I want to see the baby#Every time he sees Kaska he's like oh look there's my child. Lurona kicks him in the ribs.
