It can respond to the wearer’s thoughts and impulses, via movement, vibrations, light and/or energy pulses…etc.

Kharhisshna: The name for Askara’s “mother planet”, since Askara is actually a habitable moon orbiting a large gas giant.

Krhune/krhuning (noun, verb): A sound the Askari make when they’re content, or with humans, intimate. It emanates from their chests (mainly) and sounds like a cross between a hum and a purr. When they’re very happy or experiencing intense emotion, this sound can turn song-like.
