Culture

What the creatures do that food and fear alone do not explain. Nothing here is scripted: these are measurements of habits that formed on their own.

Superstition

No lights from the sky have reached this world yet.

Leaders

Prestige is how often others have taken up a creature's song lately. A leader is followed for the song, not for the children.

No one is being imitated right now.

Dialects

Each house sings its own mix of the ten notes.

Song lineages

Who learned their song from whom. A song outlives its first singer when the lineage keeps growing.

No song has passed from one creature to another yet.

Named places

No place has a name yet. A name comes where they gather and sing, with no food to find.

Walls and flowers

No wall stands yet. 60 flowers mark where someone died recently.
