| I am currently typing up interpretations of histories that I wrote when I was a teenager, and these stories are very violent and dramatic even by my standards. e.g. try searching for words like

| This is not what I come here to do, and I will be paring the stories down considerably. I am dealing with constant severe pain due to several independent medical issues, and that makes me angry, and in all honesty that's probably the only reason I'm writing about massacre after massacre. Please be kind and sympathetic.

| '''Please let me know if I'm writing too much.''' I think Im mostly done anyway, as even though my conworld history spans 26000 BC to 12000 AD (with "present" being 8773 AD and the years after that prophecies) I am mostly interested in the period from about 1770 AD to 4268 AD as seen from the perspective of [[Paba]], and most of that has been written down in great detail.

| ==Universal canonicity==
| |
| One rule I've always held to is to never reject any of my ideas at all. Everything I've written since I was three years old is now and will forever be canonical. When one idea contradicts another, they are either both true at separate times or one of the names is changed. Since creating a nation called "Camia" when I was 11 years old, I've had several more Camias, thus explaining how "Camia" can be utterly destroyed by one of its enemies and then a few hundred years later be on the verge of conquering the world. People, too, can appear multiple times, under different names. The two powerful female leaders '''Ende''' and '''Joja''' were originally the same person in my writings, even though they lived 300 years apart. Both of these were originally "Nancy" who was the leader of a club for children in Camia who wanted to [[STW|Save The World]]. A similar person, '''Afunyū''', lived in the 1900s, but I now realize when I wrote that she was Nancy I was using a metaphor.

| I did not hold to this rule early on. I just now found a note to myself "Remember, the plots of the book are completely detached from the comics, which gave way to the book in Nov '93." Neither the book I was writing then nor the comics that precede it are mentioned here however, as they dealt with fine details happening to just a few people whereas my history books deal with large events. However, a few things do appear in both, such as the firebirds' attack on Sala.

| Particularly when I was younger, but even now that I'm in my thirties, I came up with ideas that seemed impossible to reconcile with other ideas later on. For example, when I was 13 years old, I wrote a story in which two 13-year-old boys in Camia learned that Camia's enemy, Wamia, was going to try to defeat Camia by crashing them into the sun. Even though Camia and Wamia were on the same planet, Wamia didnt worry about problems because they were fighting a "weather" war, and any increase in temperature, even to absurd levels, would not hurt Wamia. But when the two 13-year-old boys in STW discovered that Wamia was contemplating whether to "shoot the sun at them" they ended the war by destroying the sun. Then they fled to planet Nama to ponder whether they had done the right thing.

| Since this event is still canonical, I have to find a way to work it into the story. My conworld no longer has computers or spaceships or interplanetary ballistic missiles, and I like it that way since there is no longer any possible way for one nation to "destroy the universe". Even with my insistence to keeping absolutely everything, I am willing to move events from one time period to another and thus greatly change the details of what happened so long as the event itself is preserved. Planets become countries.<ref>I have kept one planet as a planet, though, ''Imama-Hamapaa'', because I believed that that planet and its landforms appeared large enough in the sky to let the humans living on Teppala know that other planets existed. However, Ive just now realized that the term ''sister planet'' doesnt mean what I thought, and that it would probably just have to be a moon.</ref> Aliens become animals. Guns<ref>My conworld has always lacked "guns" in the sense that most modern people conceive of them. I basically invented tasers when I was 11, and have no idea if they existed in real life or not at the time. Thus it was possible to fight a major war with absolutely zero deaths and few wounded. However, people still used fatal weapons of other types.</ref> become arrows and missile attacks become ground force invasions. Destroying the sun, however, has so far resisted my attempts at working it into the story. In a truly unintended irony, the names of the two young boys who fired the missiles that destroyed the sun were named '''the Golden Sun''' and '''the Red Sun''', on account of their respective hair color, which was noticeable because they were immigrants into a city where the vast majority of the population was dark-skinned.<ref>Im backtracking a bit on the idea of not using "Golden".

| Also, I have no idea where I came up with the names. I only noticed several years further on that the Red Sun happened to have red hair and that the Golden Sun had brown hair but, since he was patterned after me, in all honesty should have been blonde at least when he was 13 years old. The fact that they lived in a dark-skinned country is also new, as [[Baeba Swamp]] was patterned after a town in Maine that was around 95% white, and in my stories was a mix between whites and Japanese. Why Japanese? I still at that time had not yet given up playing video games and therefore the foreign ethnicity I was most in touch with was the Japanese people who kept feeding me more and more video games that I loved.

| </ref> I didnt realize the irony because I wrote the story about destroying the sun four years before I got the idea to start giving everyone bynames instead of developing hundreds of conlangs for each time period and using names from those conlangs. In a second irony, the Red Sun was patterned entirely on a person I had known growing up who thought blonde hair looked weird in any context and often made fun of blonde people. The Golden Sun, meanwhile, was patterned entirely after myself, which is why the Golden Sun is the leader of the group and the Red Sun merely second in command. However, he (I) was "so generous" towards his friend that even though he was originally simply named '''the Sun''', because of course the sun is yellow,<ref>I can argue why I believe this if anyone is interested.</ref> he changed his name to the Golden Sun to show that he was considering himself merely the equal of his otherwise less-admired friend.
| | == Your "playful planets" == |
| | |
| One thing I do know is that destroying the sun was the explanation for why the [[Raspara]] people, hideous parasites whose entire existence depended on abusing the people they lived amongst, suddenly had no power and could not prevent the ascendancy of a government run by the people they had abused for the last sixty years.

| ====Video games====
| |
| A few ideas taken from video games exist in my conworld, but most are in the "short stories" I wrote when I was younger and will not be publishing here or likely anywhere. One idea that survives in the wider history is that the [[Raspara]] people stereotypically wear bathrobes because they are patterned after the Wizzrobe "people" in the original Legend of Zelda video game. When I was young (maybe 8 years old) I pretended I was Link and that I had made friends with a Yellow Wizzrobe when we met each other in a doorway. This is why the "Yellow Raspara" befriended the Swamp Kids and the "Blue Raspara" doubled down on their abusive practices.

| ===Notes to self===
| |
| * "he only doesnt let me down the stairs" ... complaining someome isnt THAT abusive because he at least still allows access to the hallway
| |
| * The (Soap) Bubbles were identified as identical with the Andanese in a scrap story immedaitrely after the TDA story
| |
| :*However, it was certainly not just an ethnic group; e.g. ''Pinuha and the Red Sun, the two most powerful people in the government of the Little Country, joined the Bubbles, fired all Swamp Kids from the government, and banished all Swamp Kids from the Little Country. ''
| |
| ::*One story that uses the word "bubble(s)" fifty times seems to identify them as Mampum, indicating they include Crystals. This would explain why the Crystals of the 4149-4268 era seem to have nothing in common with the Crystals of the 1500AD-3915 AD era. This same story also uses "crystal(s)" 169 times.
| |
| *Can "Larnac and Lucy" be here?
| |
| * "leaving just Ezra" <--- when did this happen?
| |
| * there was a strong localistic sentiment in amade, and the region refused to force its children to learn standard camian, preferring instead the smooth, measured dialect that had come to them from clubia. <--- possibly explains "STW was imported from Clubia"
