kóma ['ko.mə] - sky
From the Proto-Polaric word kómaé, sky. This noun falls into the "place" class, as the sky was conceptualized as an entire world of its own. It still is referred to that way, despite advances in Polaran astronomy

I try not to platform terfs, but this post feels life a real illustration of one of their the behavior patterns, and why they get so angry about "ideology." They aren't equipped to think abstractly, and it pisses them off

A very important phrase for fairies trying to get others' attention!
When they want to emphasize a phrase, say, to show it is an exclamation, fairies will circle it

This is also part of what I'm trying to say--the refusal to recognize oneself (or one's character) as part of a system as well as an individual. And a good/evil individual binary leaves no room for figuring out a much more complex system
