Digital Pocket Monster Rancher: Save File 005

[konatamer]

So I was thinking... there are digimon out there with "Waru" or "Nise" in front of their names, right? Like how NiseDrimogemon and WaruSeadramon mean "Fake Drimogemon" and "Evil Seadramon."

... who actually gave them those names? Isn't that basically discrimination?

Digimon names and traits are assigned and categorized by the Norn Skuld...

[konatamer]

Wait, there's actually someone responsible for naming everyone!?

[theworld_tree]

Yes.

... Barring multiversal constants, that is. Sometimes digimon are given variant names depending on location.

[konatamer]

... wow, that's not what I was expecting at all. I thought that it'd at least have been done by Bandai committee or something.

Well, I guess it'd explain why all of their names end in "-mon," but...

[theworld_tree]

I believe Skuld's subroutine for this is named "CODE: HONGO A|<1Y05|-|1...

1/2

[konatamer]

Hongo A|<1Y05|-|1? Hongo Akiyoshi, Hongo Akiyo-

2/2

[konatamer]

... ah.

[legendarytamer]

The creator of the Digimon franchise...

I wish I could say this surprised me.

[konatamer]

Y-Yeah.

This just raises more questions than it answers. So is the Hongo Akiyoshi WE know the creator of Digimon, or was it THIS place that gave us...

DO NOT GO DOWN THIS ROAD!

THE LAST TIME THIS OCCURRED, THE FOURTH PILLAR OF SKULD'S QUARTERNARY SECURITY WALL NEARLY COLLAPSED!

[konatamer]

NNWHOA!! What? What!?

Did I just spark the GAINAX ending!?

[theworld_tree]

Please stop. ;-;

[konatamer]

A-Aah, I'm sorry, I'll stop! Please don't cry! Gaah, and I can't reload from a previous savepoint!

[theworld_tree]

... You're sorry?

...

You're forgiven! ^_^

[konatamer]

Whew... you really scared me there for a moment.

Aah, if you don't mind me asking, how d'you know so much about the Digital World? Come to think of it, I don't think I ever got your name, either.

[theworld_tree]

Oh. I am Verdandi, one of the three Norn programs of Yggdrasil. ^_^
