DARIGAN CITADEL: Hovering above the skies of Meridell - a gigantic evil island,
the home of the once ferocious Darigan and the almighty tyrant Kass. Yet, it's
not the home of only those 2 villains/heroes, or whatever they are now (can you
blame me for not knowing? It's hard to keep up!), it is also the home of Darigan
minions and fellow warlords... And out of all the articles out there I've never
saw one that included the daily life of a Darigan minion on a floating island.
So this article is dedicated to those poor, yet brave, souls who decided to make
their home on such a.... *Coughs* Unique *coughs* Place...
Electricity: Where exactly are all the wires? Or are there 100 candles
inside every room and house there (and if so, fire alarms must go off every
now and again…)?
The Plumbing: Nobody ever considered the awful plumbing there must be
up there. Where does all the water go after you flush? (Maraqua has the best
plumbing as some might notice).
Island: Where on Neopia was that piece of ground was taken from? Is
there a big hole in the ground? Some poor Neopet might accidentally fall into
it and never be seen again.
Transportation: As floating machines are yet to exist in Neopia (as
far as we know at least), only winged pets can make visits to the Citadel...
The tourism must not be all that good up there...
height-o-phobia: (No idea what’s the actual name for it is, but don’t
tell anyone!) So what do people with height-o-phobia do on floating islands,
really? UPDATE: It's called Acrophobia, thanks Kristen *hugs*).
Falling over: Let's say it’s a wonderful day for a walk, you and your
Neopet decide to go outside for some breath of rotten air, you walk and walk
and walk and walk… and POOF! Leg in the wrong place and you and your pet fall
over… Oops… Life’s tough!
Visiting other places: Minions with no wings would have quite a bit
of trouble making visits to their friends without coming crashing down to the
Meridell turf and maybe (just maybe) get some broken bones and bruises...
Population: With more, and more, and more, and more Neopets appearing
in the Citadel, I predict it will come down preeettty sooooon. (Again, a little
something I like to call gravity) *coughs*
Cellblock: Between spitting Squire Meekels, Drooling Haskols, and unbeatable
opponents, I just don't see what there is to do on the Citadel all day...
Petpet Battledome: Fighting against the same petpets over, and over,
and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over
again (noticed how I wrote that 10 times? And notice how I don't babble a lot
at all to make the article longer so it would pass the 1,000 limit *shifts eyes*)
Isn't that a bit dull as a daily activity?
Trophies: Folks from the Citadel would only be able to get 2 kinds of
trophies: Cellblock and Petpet Battles... (And in the past the Darigan Battledome)
- Now isn’t that sad *throws Rotten Tomatoes at Kass while he isn't looking
and blames it on Mags*
What about minions who don't like purple?: You might have noticed that
the main color scheme on the Citadel would have to be purple. But what about
people who DON'T like purple? Shouldn’t we consider the poor souls who seeing
purple every day makes them toss their cookies?!
The sky: Looking from Meridell, the sky have an orange shade -- yet
back in the Citadel its always red, red, red, red , red!!! People could go color
blind, I tell ya *shudders*!
BLUGTHAKS: 3 monsters on the scale of all of the Island. Shouldn't that
bring it floating back to Neopia (and creating yet another little hole in the
ground)?
Talking about floating islands: What's this about gravity? Or is there
an invisible Blugthak somewhere down in Meridell that carries the Citadel on
his shoulders…
Food: Assuming there are no animals on the island, and from what I can
see there are no plants either -- what are the poor minions eating? They can't
trade with Meridell!!
Water: Same as above (replace eating with drinking). I mean, if you
look up close: Mystery Island has its Rock Pool, Lost Desert has that weird
river and lake combination, Faerieland has the Rainbow Fountain, Neopia Central
has its Rainbow Pool, Meridell has an artificial river across Skarl's Castle,
Krawk Island is located in the middle of the sea, Virtupets Space Station -
Ever wondered what’s the Space Faerie was for? Non-existing Jelly World - Why
would a non-existing world need water? Terror Mountain - Well... look at it,
its made of frozen water!!! Maraqua - (If you never noticed its time you'll
get that its an underwater world), and as far as the Haunted Woods go -- I doubt
there is anything living there that would actually need water... Tyrannia -
Well 11 out of 12 isn’t that bad...
Whack-A-Kassers: Beware *Rawrs* Smacking poor Kass dolls on their heads…
You evil, evil people! I’ll see to it that you would get what you deserve, get
‘em Ru, get ‘em!!
Life in the Citadel: "Written by General Kass, this book tells of what
it was really like when the Meridell vs. Darigan war was raging." This is one
book I would just looooooove to read all about (and get some more ideas for
the article).
That's about it... Hope I made you wonder a bit about the life that Neopians(?)
must be living up there, so next time think twice before siding with orb stealers
that think they can get away with it. *hugs Darigan* Go Darigan, my luffly Korbat!!
*Darigan flies off petrified and never to be seen near FG again* Sorry it turned
out to be a little bit more than a 'How they live?' article, but I had to squeeze
some more information some how to get off that nasty 1,000 character limit;)
Err... I mean... I just like to babble a lot. Really!!!
