On Belok's Animals Relationships.

On Belok's animals relationships.

It is important to remember that we consider every living being to be born from the same earth we are, and to be revived as another living being when their time comes.

Therefore, our view of the world as a whole, is that of a permanent living cycle, where everyone and everything is due to become one and the other.

We treat the animals as we treat everyone, sentient or not. At the difference that if one is not born belok, we do not ask of them the same rules that we do to ourselves. Therefore, they will not receive the same punishments, if any.

In regards to the animals that live at our sides, we have a few.

Horses, for labour, mobility, general farm work mostly.

Cats, for their help with monitoring our storage as to not let the mouse and such eat all our food.

Sheep, for their wool.

Dogs, to help the shepherds, and guard.

The animals that we keep with us are well fed and cared for by the whole community. We make sure they are healthy, and that their work is not too much on them.

We value them as we value one another, despite their lesser sentience in this lifetime.

We usually do not keep other animals though, mostly to limit our need for ressources, but also because we do not have the need for what they could provide.

It is not uncommon however that younger Beloks ask to keep a wounded animal at our sides, a request that we usually will grant, if the conditions are good.

Some communities prefer cows over horses, but I think it's more due to the animals available.

I personally think horses are better in pretty much every regard, especially knowing that we do not take the cow's milk. Though I could see the attract for farmers that would sell that milk.

cult of the lamb oc

Feeling lonely, catboy? Has your lamb not looked at you for a feasible amount of time before you need to push them away? Would you like to fulfill the fantasy of holding their hand without the repercussion of what it could mean?

Then look no further!

With the small amount of 100 gold pieces, I can provide all the lamb services you could ever desire! Reblog to share this to all the lonely Narinders before mine shows up.

"immortality sucks because all your friends die" all your friends die anyway. those we do not mourn are those who mourn us.

"immortality sucks because you forget who you are" we always forget who we are. do you remember who you were at four years of age? who you were at fourteen? "who i am" is a shadow cast on the wall.

"immortality sucks because" skill issue. skill issue. skill issue. give me your liver

what that tongue do sir
