The kobolds of Lutum are strongly connected to their world, even though they haven't been there that long.
It's true that the original spacefaring kobolds adapted quickly to new planets, creating the many different species we see today, but the folklore of woodland kobolds runs far deeper.
Old stories surround the world of worm called The Endless One. Legend says that The Endless One lends out its spirit to all the creatures that live there now. When creatures die, their souls leave to wander into the volcanic bogs waiting to be retrieved by the worm, so that it can lend out those shards again. You can spot the souls at night where they will rarely illuminate the surrounding fog, and when there is a great amount of activity, the sky above lights up red signaling The Endless One to return.
Kobolds have tried to contact these souls and found that their dead lingers out there as well, though impossible to differentiate from the souls of other creatures.
Scientific instruments have been brought out to record these anomalies, but they seem to be uncapturable. Cameras, microphones, EMF readers... nothing picks them up. They can only be seen through eyes and art.

Your longing for the bog has transitioned into your art :3
There is actually a bunch of bogs near me so I am just waiting for someone to be free to take me lol. (lots of trails n stuff to walk on)
That sounds nice. I haven't been out in nature for a long time.
