Time to get working!

[xroyal_bratx]

Characters: Ishtar (AU1) and All the teachers/interested students that want to learn!
Setting: Big Library + branches out depending on what the teachers want to do with the lessons. Note that the library is only a starting point so feel free to take it beyond the library!
Format: Up to You
Summary: Ishtar sets up the program that Hei wanted to set up for a while, but he was feeling unwell, so she took over.
Warnings: TBA

[ As promised. In the library, there were signs giving off the subjects of the teachers and what they were teaching along with the name of the teachers. Ishtar tried her best to organize it so that the hug library was of good use. She spaced the areas off so that there weren't too many noises coming from one professor, and she even made sure to provide them information if they so need it.

She stretches a bit and prepared herself for what will happen next. She knew Hei was a lot better at this than she was, but she did her best. She hoped it would work out. ]

[ ooc: general mingle log for the teachers that volunteered for Hei's Teaching Program/School Program. For those who volunteered, there's a spread sheet provided here and for new teachers interested, just sign up at post here. Once you sign up go ahead and tag your subject line, or if it's not there feel free to create the subject like etc. For organizational purposes, I will link the specific threads later when they become too hard to find. Enjoy and I hope everyone has a blast. If any other questions needed, feel free to direct them to me or Final! ]

[culbutiri]

But no one do be living on them right? They do no be like earth.

[lightofhumanity]

..People may have lived on them at one time in my universe, but they do not anymore.

[culbutiri]

Why do they be no living there no more?

[lightofhumanity]

Because, in my universe, people moved away from those places, wanting to expand.

[culbutiri]

Did there be too many of them to be living there any more?

[lightofhumanity]

No..it was the fact that those planets were not good for inhabiting. Humanity stayed up in the stars for a good while before they learned how to make rocky planets liveable.

[culbutiri]

So did there be no humans on earth before the ones from the stars did be getting there?

[lightofhumanity]

...In my universe, all humans migrated from Earth to the stars. So, there weren't any humans on Earth when they moved.

[culbutiri]

Didn't they already be knowing their place among the stars then, those philosophers, if they had been coming from there already?

[lightofhumanity]

These philosophers lived on Earth. Humanity's migration to the stars started long after they were dead. While the philosophers worked out the movements of the heavenly bodies and knew about the solar system, they did not know everything about space.

[culbutiri]

I thought you did be saying they did be coming from the stars to the earth and there did be no people on earth first.

[lightofhumanity]

I said that Earth was Humanity's birthplace, their point of origin. They may have moved to the stars, but they did not do so instantly. It only happened after a long period of time had passed.

[culbutiri]

So they did be on earth, then they did all be leaving, then they did be going back?

[lightofhumanity]

No. They could not, for they had forgotten where Earth was.

[And Earth was destroyed.]

[culbutiri]

Well that did be being stupid of them.

[lightofhumanity]

Possibly..but records got lost, over time. Wars, fighting, and time caught up with the accounts, and eventually, people forgot. It did not help that humanity moved far away from Earth eventually.

[culbutiri]

Right. [She nodded] But these philosophers they did no be knowing about other planets yet.

[lightofhumanity]

They knew about a few, but their understanding was limited, since they did not understand much about the world.

[culbutiri]

Which was why they did be trying to learn yes?

[lightofhumanity]

Yes. Which brings us back into the lesson. As philosophy kept going a little, people started thinking about what the universe was made out of. Out of curiosity, what do you think they thought it was made of?

[culbutiri]

Rock, fire, water and air. [Unless they were stupid, then she had no idea what they thought. It wasn't like it was difficult to work out.]

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos nodded for a moment.]

Good. One of the beginning philosophers, a man named Empedocles, had the same view of the world-that it was made up of earth, air, fire, and water. Other philosophers thought that everything was made up of just one or two elements.

People like Empedocles were called cosmogonists, as they were trying to figure out what the cosmos was made up of.

[culbutiri]

What elements did they be thinking the world did be being made of?

At least they did be having Empedocles to be telling them the truth

[lightofhumanity]

Some thought that only fire built up the world. Others thought that only water did, and one other thought That water and air made up everything..however, while Empedocles made some progress, he two, was ultimately wrong in the end. There are about 118 chemical elements known, and there are still a few being discovered.

[culbutiri]

No there do be being four... [How on earth could there be one hundred and eighteen elements...]
