Ancient Ancestor: Xio (Patreon)

[Segments of the text are worn away from time]

Long long ago, when the land was new and the moons glowed brightest, Great Mother Lupa had 5 children whom she loved greatly. To each she gave a special gift, and sent them out into the world to make their homes. …. ..…… . … .. …

..…… . …..… .. … . … .. . . … .

Xio, the strongest of her children, journeyed to the northeast. With his power, he carved out a home for his own family to settle.

. . …… … . . .. … . .

… …… … . . .… … . . .

What remained of his beloved daughter was her imprint, left on her father’s shoulder.

To honor the lost child, and to show their unity, the others of the tribe began marking their children once they reached the same age.

. …… .. …. .. . . .. .. .. we will always know each other by this mark.

This is just an abridged version of the story, the full is in my notes and I’ll share that another time, possibly thru a more visual medium if time allows. I’ll get to it!

While Xio himself is long dead, he still has parts to play within Caine’s story.

Most of my time is spent figuring out lore for this AU. Just because Sonic doesn’t need rules doesn’t mean I can’t set up my own!
