Cyno [Flower]

 

Hi all! N0V4 here! As expected, I will be taking over introducing the Cynos for Aino! Not only does she have a lot on her plate, sometimes she simply doesn’t care about the history of the Cynos… Such a shame. Since I am Aino’s helper, I feel some sort of loyalty to the Cynos as well, so I will try my best to piece together their story and share it with you!

This Cyno [Flower] lives in a concrete world. She has the ability to grow flowers. It seems as though she descended to Earth for the same reasons that most Cyno’s do: either boredom, loss of direction in life, or curiosity. To her surprise, the world was not what she had seen from space. All the greenery was fake! They had simply painted buildings and statues green. In reality, humanity was suffering by being unable to breathe, instead having to resort to chemically created Oxygen. As a result, the life-spans of the humans began to decrease drastically.

After working amongst them for a while, she found herself unable to pay the fees to buy the chemically created Oxygen. As a star, she did not necessarily need to “breathe” as humans do. However, the ones that took her in initially, the ones who shared meals with her and gave her shelter, began to fall sick. In her fear, she began researching, and realized that Oxygen could be made through plants! She tried to garden by herself, but plants could not grow in the barren land. One night, after hearing her friends coughing throughout the night, on the brink of death, she quietly awakened her Starcore. 

The next morning, the whole house was filled with flowers, and her friends miraculously survived! I’m not sure why her Starcore didn’t allow her to create trees, as they produce more oxygen… Perhaps she cares a little too much about aesthetics… Regardless, she decided to take her friends and escape outside the boundaries of the cement world and create a little settlement. There, she created a farm where she now lives, and urged the humans to try and plant in different areas to spread the greenery! Although it doesn’t seem to be working that well, she is trying her best day by day, and has created a rather small, self-sustaining settlement. However, there is always the looming threat of the main civilization finding out about their escape. Although Aino did not specifically request it, I am monitoring their progress. At the very least, perhaps their death would cause a ping in our system. 

Future aside, this Cyno seems to be fairly easygoing and chill. She’d make a wonderful friend! Although Aino rated her fairly average on the scale, I find myself very drawn to her personality. Even I have to admit, however, she is a little on the weak side… 

Fun Fact: Her favourite flower is the Jacaranda and she manually ties her hair into little balls every morning. She claims that it’s so her hair “does not get in the way”. This is only partially true. She also loves the way it looks.
