One:Derring-Do
The Derring-Do were a small population of humans that occupied the caves of Land-Kentucky during the years immediately following the Batavia Excession. The community coalesced around their shared defiance of the philosophy/lives of hard logic espoused and ascribed to by robots, as well as the softer and more cognitively permeable options presented by the Cetaceans. Little is known about their day-to-day existence of the Derring-Do (nor what became of them)[1] though they left behind a large number elaborate, homemade (often musical) liquor stills hidden throughout the vast network of tunnels and caverns of the [Cave system]. In fact, they are rumored to have advanced the study of gin and gin derivatives by decades, if not figurative light-years.[2] The Derring-Do were identifiable by their removal/lack of the pinky and ring fingers of their right hand (demonstrating their fleshiness and independence, and allowing the remaining fingers to naturally and gracefully fall into a d-shape) and by their hostility, and occasional outright violence, toward those lacking such lack.
Notes
- ↑ It is theorized by less scrupulous scholars than myself that they may have had a hand in the creation of the Buryatia-Patagonia Transverse
- ↑ Derring-Do legend holds that the new agricultural and mechanical technologies involved in their gin production were divined through observation/calculation of movements of extraterrestrial objects.
