The Twigs of Kala

The Twigs of Kala are a prominent feature of Kala's coastline. The first twig, made when zaklj joined Kala on February 11, 2022, started the Twig family. There are currently 4 iterations of the twig.

1.0 "The diving board"

Twig 1.0, known as the diving board was the first twig of Kala, The grandfather of all twigs. Zaklj wanted to make a diving board off the promenade in the waters below but Faby who was working on his cliff there at the time said to not forward the build as it would disrupt him and make the town seem like a joke. After negotiation, zaklj had the approval to build 1.0 on Kala's peninsula far from the city. Twig 1.0 still stands there today but it is not used at all, mainly to not break it as it had been damaged due to weathering as of the wood getting old.

2.0 "The safety hazard" After twig 1.0, zaklj went forward with building a much grander twig nearer to the city the same day as 1.0. He sneakily built the twig while Faby was not on and this twig stood much taller than its predecessor. Twig 2.0 became a fun activity for Kala's citizens with Faby eventually growing to like it.

At this time, The vice duke of Westmarch, Ciprilu was greeted by zaklj and Faby by the two constantly harassing and teasing Ciprilu. Ciprilu, rightfully so would sometimes fight the two boys for them to leave him alone and zaklj and Faby would run to the twig and dive off as a means to get away, while doing that so ever, Faby noticed that twig 2.0 had a major design flaw. Twig 2.0's board never fully reached the ocean causing people who didn't run and jump to fall to the ground and break their legs. The flaw was never fixed however and was actually branded as a feature by zaklj who said that the diving board is way funner with a sense of risk. This gave 2.0 the name "the unlicensed fun safety hazard" with its successor adopting the name as well as a tribute.

Twig 2.0 sadly does not remain today. It was removed when Faby started terraforming the hill 2.0 was on for new roads to be placed. With no hill twig 2.0 was not accessible and it also got in the way of the terraforming so zaklj was ordered to take it down on February 12.

2.0 v2 "Kala's monument" Twig 2.0 was never fully gone however as zaklj when scrapping the twig held onto the wood that was used thinking he would need it for other projects. It dawned on him quickly that it just wasn't the same without a diving board in Kala, Fun was being lost. On the dock of Kala's promenade zaklj, with no consent, decided to quickly put together another twig using 2.0's wood on February 13. He didn't think it was going to last for long due to not actually having permission, but none the less zaklj had some fun diving off it.

The builder of the dock, Glom was fine with the twig however and it remained. Twig 2.0 is undoubtedly the most famous one with even people from the Amakiir family in Haleos having fun diving off it. When Ciprilu and zaklj opened their bar and had a celebration night for Ciprilu becoming senate twig 2.0 v2 became the most used diving board out of the family ever and is now jokingly called Kala's monument.

On the 16th February twig 2.0 v2 was taken down along with the docks. While the reason is unknown why the docks were taken down by Gloms, with the docks gone the twig would of just been floating there so he decided to take it down. As a gift he gave zaklj back the materials if he ever wanted to build another one.

 3.0 "Ciprilu's turn" Ciprilu wanted to have a go at building a twig and so over the hill of Kala near Haloes he built the tallest standing twig of them all, Twig 3.0 on February 14. He built 3.0 as though he liked 2.0 he felt it wasn't exciting enough, it was fun but not extreme. he got some wood and built a small board out on top of the hill and the drop is the biggest of any of the twigs.

This twig is not very well known but it is definitely the most fun. Though not apart of the original twig family it is important as it broke the record of tallest drop by a long shot from the original twig 2.0. Well done Ciprilu :D
