. Alright.

Names that deal with eyes and other things that can't be seen on birth.....

In countries with a high infant mortality rate.. (Like India for example)
Newborns tend to go without names for years, because in the minds of people that live there, if it's going to die before it really has a chance to live, why name it?
The cats in Starless seem to live in a similarly harsh environment, for that reason, wouldn't most queens hold off naming their kits until they reached a certain age?

About names that deal with the sky...
Although most(if not all) cats here would probably kick the bucket before they became elders...
Surely someone would remember the outside, and pass on the stories to their children.
Considering the fact that most of the first generation would probably be quite angry that they were left to rot by one sick cat.
For that reason, wouldn't they try to preserve memories from the outside?
Of course, it would be perfectly understandable if after a while the stories just died out, because there was nobody left to tell them, and anyone who had heard the stories probably thought it was nothing more than a lie.

About the structure itself.
While it's rather obvious the structure couldn't be built by cats(Although being trapped in something like this would be akin to 'Trapped in an Elevator... FOREVER!' and would serve to spice up role-play.. and for that reason the plausibility of such a structure being built doesn't come into question here.)

The cats have been trapped inside for seven generations, and in all that time, hasn't anyone noticed that Riverclan disappeared?
But since you don't really talk about any other clans existing, I'll presume that Riverclan is the only clan that lives in that area.
But wouldn't the appearance of such a large structure that wasn't there before rouse human attention?

Unless, of course, they were in such a remote, inhospitable area that humans think the structure is in fact natural.

I think that's it....
Oh wait.

And the cbox decided it hated me. ;~;
-kicks cbox-
That is all, I believe.
Thanks for helping me waste __ minutes of your life. >3

"The cats in Starless seem to live in a similarly harsh environment, for that reason, wouldn't most queens hold off naming their kits until they reached a certain age?"

If they did, I still wouldn't allow eye names because they annoy me.

"Surely someone would remember the outside, and pass on the stories to their children."

Of course.

"they were left to rot by one sick cat."

Pardon? You mean the leader and deputy, which are two cats?
They weren't sick, unless you count lovesick.

"...wouldn't they try to preserve memories from the outside?"

Of course.
What was your point here?

"While it's rather obvious the structure couldn't be built by cats"
Not normal cats, true,
but they're not normal cats.

"(Although being trapped in something like this would be akin to 'Trapped in an Elevator... FOREVER!' and would serve to spice up role-play.. and for that reason the plausibility of such a structure being built doesn't come into question here.)"

Um, what was the question here?

"...hasn't anyone noticed that Riverclan disappeared?"

What do you mean? ...Who's there to notice?

"But since you don't really talk about any other clans existing, I'll presume that Riverclan is the only clan that lives in that area."

Mhm.

"But wouldn't the appearance of such a large structure that wasn't there before rouse human attention?"

Maybe if humans lived there.

"And the cbox decided it hated me. ;~;"

How unfortunate.

"Of course.
What was your point here?"
I think he's asking about the names that have to do with the sky. Wouldn't the cats who would like to preserve memories of the outside name their kits after things to do with the sky? And if the answer to that question was a yes, wouldn't sky-names be allowed?

"Wouldn't the cats who would like to preserve memories of the outside name their kits after things to do with the sky?"
--x
The first generation perhaps might have received such names. Later on, as descriptions passed down by word of mouth became less exact, cats would be less inclined to name their kits after them.


"And if the answer to that question was a yes, wouldn't sky-names be allowed?"
--x
If it were, I might allow Cloud.

[Gosh]

""But wouldn't the appearance of such a large structure that wasn't there before rouse human attention?"

Maybe if humans lived there."

I thought humans didn't exist in this world...of course, that wasn't specified in the plot, so... ;x
