#mayab

[r15-rz]

Se cuenta que hace muchos años, cuando la tierra era joven, habitaba en el Mayab un animal hermoso, cuyo poder rivalizaba con el Jaguar, tenia un hermoso plumaje, pelaje o piel; unas piernas largas y veloces y un maravilloso canto que cualquier ave podría envidiar. - Este animal era el Aak -.

Pero la tierra aún era muy joven y no habia en el cielo noctuno una lumbrera como el sol durante el día, así que los animales vagaban en las tinieblas tropezando al caminar, chocando unos con otros y sin poder cazar para comer, razón por la que sufrían. Sin embargo, Aak en un apice de sabiduría e ingenio, tuvo una idea: "¿por que no pedimos al sol que ilumine también la noche para que no tengamos más problemas?" -dijo- y a todos los animales les agradó la sugerencia, pero el sol no escucharía sus solas plegarías, por lo que Aak creó, con su hermosa voz, un cantó para que el sol escuchara y así comentar su pesar, pudieran.

El sol, compadecido, respondió: -trabajo muy duro todo el día, calentando y brindando luz al Mayab, por lo que no podría hacerlo también durante la noche, pero puedo darles una gota de mi saliba, la cual tendrán que recibirla y cargarla hasta que se enfríe, solo así podrán colocarla en el cielo noctuno. No está de más decir que será difícil y peligroso-.

Tuvieron que pasar varios días para que los animales aceptaran la idea por completo, pero nadie estaba dispuesto a hacer tal sacrificio que el sol habia propuesto. Excepto Aak, quién era muy orgulloso y quería que su idea se llevara acabo.

Con piedras macizas y aplanadas hicieron una plancha la que amarraron con resistentes raíces y untaron con pegajosa recina. El plan era, -tal como dijo el sol-, cargar sobre la espalda la pancha de rocas y en ella la gota solar hasta que esta se enfriará y así, los murciélagos de la noche, pudieran subirla al cielo. Fue entonces que Aak se ofreció a llevarla sobre su espalda, creyendo que su plan tendría éxito.

Llegó el día anhelado, el sol dejó caer, durante el ocaso, una pequeña pero pesada gota de su ardiente saliba, tan caliente como lava de volcán, sobre la vasija de piedra que Aak, acompañado de otros animales, habían logrado subir a la punta de la montaña más alta.

Cuesta abajo, Aak cargó la gota y los animales soplaban por turnos, con sus hocicos, colas, orejas y aleteos hasta lograr enfriarla. Por tanto calor, Aak perdió su plumaje y su piel se oscureció. A causa del gran peso que cargaba, sus piernas se enchaparraron y su caminar se hizo lento. Fue tanto el dolor que causaron las quemaduras que perdió su voz hasta pronunciar solo pequeños gemidos.

No obstante, al caer la noche, logró llegar al río, la gota solar se enfrió por completo y los animales bañaron a Aak con sus aguas, descubriendo que la plancha de rocas se había fundido con su cuerpo. Rápidamente, los murciélagos de la oscuridad, llegaron para colocar en el cielo nocturno aquella gota que emanaba una radiante luz, pero fue tanta su luminiscencia que quedaron ciegos para siempre.

A la gota de luz se le llamó luna. Y de Aak queda lo que hoy llamamos tortuga. Es gracias a su sacrificio que todas las noches se alza una lumbrera en el cielo noctuno del Mayab.

i know people dont like playing warrior in da. but grappling hook has to be one of the sexiest and coolest moves ever on a per-specialization ability tree.

[number-one-toku-robot-lover]

Also, I'm onto the second half of kimiyuki and I was just enjoying the delightfully theatrical earnestness and toku actors. Like "Yayyyy ominous narration! Yay hammered home motifs!" But the actual tragedy is building and it's. It's.

[skhardwarevers1]

damn. The crushing weight of being in love with someone is weird !!! Stop it !!!

[dearloonies]

Hey I just want to say that it feels awesome to know that you also support the KoyoKazuki shipping too. Let's all rejoice KoyoKazu shippers!!

Yeah let us rejoice all KoyoKazuki shippers!! XDDD

And Just a stark reminder: All ships are nice as long as it isn't weird or illegal! KoyoKazuki has an interesting dynamic especially if you think about Koyo and his crush on Shoko and his somewhat one-sided rivalry with Kazuki because of it.

Tbh I started to shipp these two after seeing that scene in DA of Kazuki comforting/hugging Koyo XD

I can't get the image out of my mind. On one side Sekido who holds y/n against him and on the other side of the cave, the other brothers who judge Sekido

→⁠_⁠→ ←⁠_⁠←

Dragon Sekido x Fem! Reader | mini Headcanon

It could be noticed the silence and discomfort inside the large and big cave where there were five dragons and a small human being carried by the older dragon.

The human frowned slightly as she sat on the giant paw of the red-eyed dragon which looked at his brothers who were on the other side of the cave seeming to judge their brother for having a human by his side.

"Why are your brothers looking at us like that? They seem weirdos..." Y/n spoke whispering to Sekido, it wasn't much since Sekido's brothers found out that he had a human with him and he protected her and hid her from them all this time. His brothers were very surprised since Sekido was the one who always told them to stay away from humans and just eat them.

But now he was the one who hid a human from them and protected her for months away from everything!

"Ignore them, they're just annoyances." Sekido spoke, his thick voice echoed a little in the cave making his brothers also hear his words.

"Are you talking bad about us to the human, Sekido? That's very bad brother, making the meat bag think badly of us.." the green eyed dragon, Karaku sneered and took a step towards the couple, his eyes fixed on the human and full of desire to taste her flesh while licking his lips.

"He called me meat bag!.." y/n frowned further feeling offended by Karaku's words, she looked at Sekido annoyingly giving him to understand that she didn't like Karaku. The red eyes of the dragon and the human met and understood each other in an instant.

"Don't call her bag of meat! Don't you dare take another step, idiot, and if I talk so badly about you all it's because I'm referring to idiots like you who don't know how to control themselves." Sekido growled deeply and yelled at him in annoyance, he would not allow his supposed brother to say such an offensive insult to his human. "An insult to my mate is an insult to me! Such disrespect will not be tolerated!"

The brothers remained silent upon hearing his older brother's words, Y/n's cheeks turned a reddish tone upon hearing how her mate defended her from Karaku.

"Mayabe we should shut up all.." Aizetsu offered sighing as he looked at his brothers with his typical sad face and no desire to start a fight.

[ruumirmir]

heyo i love your kinich drawing its really great but please dont forget that the natlan characters are mesoamericans and theyre still very much alive today. kinich is mayan and mayan features are distinctivly different from african features. thank you- a mayab from yucatan

,, Turns out I mixed up kinich and olorun, the latter whos supposed to be Nigerian (っ °Д °;)っ

Anyway- thanks for the clarification anon ^^ I dont know much about Mayan cultures and people so ill probably wrap that up as a rough sketch and do my next kinich art after i go through proper references lmao Well wishes- to yucatan <3
