Ollo eo Ollo
Knowing these terms will help you communicate with other miners!
- Pebble Therapy: when you use encouraging self-talk to convince yourself that you're not a third-rate miner, because see, look at all these pebbles you're finding!
Example: "Why's Ollo admiring those pebbles?" -"That's their pebble therapy, it helps them to cope." - Goose Egg: when you go out mining and don't find anything. The Kalrisian numeral for "nothing" looks like an egg!
Example: "Welcome back, Ollo! How many gems did you find on your journey?" -"Zero. Goose egg." - Double Pull: when you go to look at minerals, spot two valuable ones all of a sudden, and pick them up with one paw. One of these can make the whole trip worthwhile.
Example: "I couldn't find a single thing for ten minutes, then I hit a silver double-pull. I'm so glad to be a miner!" - Fire Crystal Therapy: see pebble therapy
- Cracking Good Time: the kind of time you have when you only find cracked gems.
Example: "How was your trip to Torrus Peak? Find any brilliant opals?" -"Ah no, I had a cracking good time though!" - Nothing: the miner's greatest gift. Emptiness. Simplicity. Freedom from burden.
Example: "I saw you mining down by the river, what did you find?" -[serenely] "Nothing…"
