[@girl1213]

Considering how the Aztecs viewed the earth beneath their feet as a hungry monster, it makes perfect sense why they want to keep friendly terms. I don't know if that kind of view is unique among the Aztecs, but they feared the ocean less then they feared the land while other world cultures had the opposite. Of course there's also the world turtle of some native American myth to consider as well. To them the world is alive like Calamity says and that's why they have to take care of it because killing the world turtle would mean the end of the world by watery grave. Betty really takes the world-building of her story to serious levels using known mythology myths.

[@PANCAKEMINEZZ]

As Overly Sarcastic Productions put it: The earth is basically an eldritch crocodile monster that people must placate with bloody sacrifices so the world doesn't eat everything. Maybe the coolest and most metal view of the earth I've ever heard in mythology.

[@tauvolentas3954]

God when i was younger as a child. I saw your single singing animations. Then the first 3 episode's of 'No Evil' and for years it took me so long to find your name, (and I mean 0% offence when I say this.) Half expecting a dead or moved account. It almost made me cry to see how far you've carried this, and your an inspiration to animators everywhere.

I would support ungodly amounts of money to make No Evil a fully produced show. Maybe on "breaks" have little segments like this where Calamity spits wisdom at us.

[@oozeygoosey518]

Hell. Id donate my money and my services to a show like this

Oh but to take The Lady of the Jade Skirt and take her across the ocean to meet with other similar water affiliated spirits and primals. If she were actually Calamity Jade it might even be a fun time.

[@superfightingrobotmkx7776]

This is pure poetry.

[@Loremaster17]

Considering the guns we've seen, Scourosi seems to have the technology level of the early 1900s/late 1800s. So it's odd to me that so little is apparently known about what lies over the sea considering what kind of ships they have. The early episode with Wrip and Vinkle's backstories even shows obviously foreign merchants on a ship, so maybe the main cast just live such homebound lives they have no idea what lies in the wider world.

[@darthplagueis3488]

Everybody gangsta until the planet gets invaded from inter-dimensional Prussians

[@140kittykat]

Everyone in the main cast are kinda scattered throughout the land in Judgement, but gather at Mama Spider's to eventually move to the area the show takes place. Icky and Calamity got lost in the desert that Kitty knows her way through when heading towards Metztli. Even when you take Vinkle's "creative license" into consideration, he and Wrip are the most well travelled/foreigners; they know next to nothing about the black ick or Amaroq that is common knowledge to everyone else.

[@alexanderleonardi3625]

@@140kittykat it also prompts the question: if they werent there when the black ick struck, and they are older than the crisis, and it covered all the land, where *were* they? probably another land

If everything was once living, but not anymore, then everything is slowly dying. Such a depressing thought. I also wish it all just napping an aeon or two. I might like to sleep an aeon or two myself, before waking up again with the mountains and hills and pillars and waters. Wouldn't that be nice?

These stories really don't seem all that fitting for Calamity to tell. She always seems less about lore and more about the here-and-now. But then, I don't guess we've really seen the series when it's just her and one other person, and they're in a completely relaxed, non-stressful environment. The closest was she she stayed in Kitty's house with Wrip and Corn, I think? She just started… singing. No real reason. Well, aside from the fact that Betsy wanted to sing, I suppose. (;
