Scenery of GR: Sergal Boy at Veranda
Added 2015-08-23 14:00:15 +0000 UTCThere's Gold Ring resident sergal boy is talking with his friend while eating a snack, at a veranda. There's big potted plant that his father is raising. And inside the cage there is a "False Crab".
False Crabs are a type of Talyxian crustacean which can be seen around many places in Gold Ring. They are treated as vermin, and people can slay them easily.
Their name stems from Eltus crabs which have a similar appearance to Earth's crab, as such, Eltus people treat them as sacred animals and value them. Some Eltus crabs can also sometimes appear on kitchens from the waterways connected to the sea. As such, Talyxian "False Crabs" are treated as nasty, fake things because of their similar appearance and tendency to pop up around the same places as the Eltus ones.
They often appear in kitchens to eat people's leftovers. Generally, people don't like them, but children sometimes pet them out of simple curiosity.
Breeding or keeping them without permission is not allowed, because there is a law in place for all wild animals in Gold Ring. However, as they are small creatures, they can be easily found everywhere. Gold Ring police normally let unauthorized breeding of them go unpunished in many cases, deeming the effort to prosecute way more a hassle than the potential damages and outcome.
In actuality, they also have a beneficial impact on the ecosystem, however people are not readily aware of this side. One such example is that they eat away at harmful slimes occuring in the waterway. - "Slimes" are bubbly, pink paste or foamy things which have grown and increased in size within eutrophicated waterways. It generally has a grotesque appearance and is poisonous for fish farming as they can be numerous in the water.
As such, Eltus folk treat them as no more, no less than unpleasant vermin.

2017-09-18 23:59:37 +0000 UTCI do enjoy these scenes, but I do hope the sergals don't become too humanized in the process :/
2015-08-25 23:07:12 +0000 UTCYou'd think, but sergals, along with the agudner and nevreans, were originally human
