The world is a spectrum of colours, each individual within it a beautiful shade of all those colours. Such is how the young and enthusiastic Zhurong sees the world around him as he travels for all the scoops to share with everyone.

Had this ref sitting around since last year, and finally finished it up.
ZhuRong! Ekaitz's mech, which is like if Sazabi and a Lailah Skell had a baby. + Lupus Rex claws.

I think I've mentioned Nuwa repairing the sky before, but I don't thinks I've ever gone into the myth so we're doing that today.
The story begins with two other gods entirely, as they are the ones who cause the problem in the first place. One of them was Gonggong, a water deity. Sources vary on who he was fighting (some say it was Zhuanxu, the Black Emperor), but he is most commonly said to have fought the fire god Zhurong. No matter who he ends up fighting, Gonggong loses and is a very poor sport about it. He throws a temper tantrum and winds up running headfirst into Mount Buzhou and breaks it.
Unfortunately, that mountain is in charge of holding up the sky and breaking it has dire consequences. The sky starts to tilt and crack while water goes everywhere. Nuwa notices the situation and goes to do something about it. First, she goes and kills a giant turtle (possibly one of the ones carrying the mythological mountains of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou) and cut off its legs to make new pillars su support the falling sky. However, that still wasn't enough, so she grabbed a passing black dragon an killed it to use as a pillar to hold up the sky in the middle (I like to think she smacked it on the ground like a Looney Toon). Some say that this pillar-dragon would later become the Ruyi Jingu Bang, the legendary weapon of Sun Wukong. Now that the sky was propped up, Nuwa had to deal with all the cracks that had formed. She scoured riverbeds for over 30,000 stones in 5 colors (possibly the colors associated with the 5 elements) and melted them so she could glue the sky back together.
Now, the book doesn't say she went and gave the two knuckleheads that caused this problem an ass-whooping, but I certainly would have. Then again, Gonggong supposedly died when he broke Mount Buzhou with his thick head, so it'd be a whole trip down to the underworld just to give that idiot a piece of her mind....
Anyways, the sky was no longer falling so Chicken Little could presumably find some new to stress over.
However, there was still lasting damage from the incident. First, the sky was tilted. This was the explanation for the Earth's slight tilt on it's axis that causes the seasons in real life. Another unfortunate consequence is that while Nuwa stopped MORE water from coming out, she couldn't exactly do anything about the water that was already there.....
TO BE CONTINUED......

The different Mars Rovers and what we learned
Sojourner (1997)
First rover to successfully land on Mars. Defined by NASA as a "micro-rover" due to its small size, Sojourner had a speed of maximum of 0.4 meters pr. minute. It was active for about 80 days on the surface of Mars.
Tumblr media
Sojourner carried three cameras, an Atmospheric Structure Instrument (Meteorology Package) and an Alpha Proton X-ray Spectrometer. There instruments.
From Sojourner, NASA learned about the surface and weather conditions of Mars.
Sojourner found rounded rocks at the landing site, which suggests that running water could have been on Mars. The radio-tracking of Pathfinder (mission name) also gave an estimate of Mars' metal core's size (1300 kilometers to 2000 kilometers). It also discovered that the dust that is in the air on Mars is magnetic and possibly made up of mahemite. Sojourner also observed dust devils, ice clouds in the lower atmosphere and temperature fluctuations on the surface of Mars.
Spirit (2004-2010) and Opportunity (2004-2018)
Spirit was one of two Mars rovers launched in 2003 (mission started in 2004). The wheels on Spirit and Opportunity were about double the size of Sojourners. The weight of both rovers was about 17 times Sojourners, and more than double the size. Their goal on Mars was to search the surface for traces of past water. In 2009, Spirit got stuck in soil (in the area called Troy). In 2010, Spirit stopped communications, and the mission ended in 2011.
Opportunity was launched in 2004 along with Spirit but lasted much longer than their twin. Setting the record for the longest-lasting Mars rover, Opportunity stopped communications in 2018. Opportunity also set the record for the longest distance traveled by a rover, around 45 kilometers.
Tumblr media
Like Sojourner, Spirit provided data about Mars' weather conditions, especially the wind. Both Spirit and Opportunity found evidence of possible conditions on Mars that could allow microbial life.
Spirit and Opportunity both had panoramic cameras, a thermal emission spectrometer, a Moessbauer spectrometer, an alpha particle X-ray spectrometer, and a microscopic imager.
Curiosity (2012-present)
Curiosity is currently the oldest active Mars rover (as of 21/07/2023) The main purpose of Curiosity is to figure out if Mars has the right environment for microbial lifeforms. Curiosity is currently exploring Gale Crater and had the most advanced instruments at the time. Curiosity has found evidence of water having been on Mars in the past, found old organic material, and discovered that Mars has had a thicker atmosphere in the past.
Tumblr media
Curiosity can climb over knee-high obstacles and can go up to 30 meters per hour.
Curiosity carries a radioisotope power system to generate electricity, which gives the rover a steady electricity flow. Curiosity also carries 17 cameras, a laser, a drill, and 10 different instruments.
Perseverance (2021-present)
Perseverance is the newest Mars rover from NASA. The main goal for Perseverance is to research habitable conditions on Mars, but also for signs of past microbial life. The mission also tests possible options for future human expeditions on Mars (ex. improved landing techniques, producing oxygen from the atmosphere and environmental conditions).
The drill Perseverance used can collect samples and then set them aside for collection on the surface.
Tumblr media
Zhurong (2021-2022)
Launched by the CNSA, Zhurong is the first Chinese Mars rover. In 2022 it became inactive due to sandstorms and the winter, which prevented it from waking at an appropriate temperature and good sunlight conditions.
Zhurong's mission was to study the topography, examine the surface (soil and elements), and take samples of the atmosphere. To do this it had a RoPeR (Mars Rover Penetrating Radar), RoMAG (Mars Rover Magnetometer), MCS (Mars Climate Station), MarSCoDE (Mars Surface Compound Detector), a multispectral camera and navigation and topography cameras. It also had a remote camera on board.

Random Housamo thought :
Seeing these two images together. I WANNA SEE LEIB BABYSIT ZHURONG in the Jurassic era.
Leib : Don't wander about now…. *dozes off for 15 second* Zhurong *Already photographing a roaring T-rex at close range*

I love these guys because they genuinely care about MC as MC and not because they have the soul of a mental illness in them.
I mean, Benten seeing all the shit yMC goes through and deciding they need her protection and not MC protecting her is older sister behaviour.
Kuniyoshi having war flashbacks but making sure you're okay afterwards. Pushing through his trauma for you, that's something you do for someone you care A LOT about.
Zhurong thinking you died and crying his little heart out. Probably thinking about what happened to Nüwa and having to go through this a second time and still not knowing what to do.
Arc knowing a part of them would die if MC indeed died right then and there. But finding quick reassurance that MC is indeed fine. MC might be their first friend in forever. Would have probably hunted the giants and kiled them out of revenge.
And Cait Sith trying to make light of the situation but worried out of his mind. Saw MC almost die in front of him without being able to do anything about it.
I love them all, they care about MC so much. And that's exactly what the traumatized need right now even if just for a little while.

dynast frame 00: zhurong
commissioning a friend to redesign this guy...! the redesign is still in the works but i decided to toss out a render real quick to test out the current iteration. big fan of it so far. may just roll with this one
anyway for those (target audience of 2, probably) who come for the worldbuilding, context: zhurong is ekaitz's mech with a built-in frame intelligence. the intelligence is kind of a douche, but they're created from the remnants of a long lost civilization and no one really understands how they function.
or where the rest of the mech came from, actually. the mech can slowly regenerate injuries or just show up elsewhere when completely destroyed. all it needs is elemental energy to power itself, so it can't enter oasis civilizations, which shelter sapient races from megafauna but don't provide enough energy for large magitech like these mechs
