@pevarat.bsky.socialThrowing it out there: if you win one of the costumes that has any of the paper pieces with it, hit me up. I'm potentially willing to buy just the papers.
Also, if anyone wants to go in on the rings or the shawls, I just want the Red shawl and the AoL ring.
@pevarat.bsky.social@pevarat.bsky.socialYes! I'm so sad I'll never get the opportunity to pick his brain.
@pevarat.bsky.socialso the note for this in the companion actually says: "related to blade/sword ("Man" has the same root as "war," "violence," or "aggression")" which I think is super interesting for a non-violent society, especially since there are SO MANY words with the same or similar meaning.
@pevarat.bsky.socialFor a more in depth look into jo-cars (and better images lol) watch this video from @unraveling.bsky.social

Jo-car

Jo-car
WoTober - October 1
Age of Legends
The jo-car was a passenger vehicle or small cargo vehicle. It came in two forms: a ground version that had four wheels, or a floater version that used anti-grav tech.
[below this are two images from the wheel of time show, one of a four wheeled wagon and the other a blurry image of what might be a flying vehicle. ]
Inspiration
One possible le source of inspiration for the name is the Subaru Jo-car a concept car introduced in 1987.
[next to this is an image of the jo-car]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did:plc:nfhd6udxc4brijs2u7hp2tep/bafkreicwu2nqosadas45rojdsetc3g4dz2suxi6eyrly7rcj3ep2ncif4a@jpeg)

Old Tongue Tramslation:
There is, sadly, no direct translation of jo-car from Old Tongue to Common
Possible related words:
jobei - apparatus
car - chief

@pevarat.bsky.socialElaida's stronger than me because I would trade my soul for just that Red Ajah shawl in the auction
