Emotion 365: The Land of Defeated

Mud flats roil over Defeated. They bubble and burst and the mud pots churn blue and yellow streaks and rings of color. Mud creatures inhabit Defeated. They withstand the heat, but the noxious gasses rising from the bubbling mud burn even their tough skin. Travelers through this sticky, mud-soaked and difficult to traverse land shed their skins and become mud monsters on their way through. They sink into the thick, deep mud and sometimes swim beneath its surface. Many come here to spend some time as a mud monster learning the ways of the mud as they pass through. Upon exit, the mud dries, cracks, and falls from their body. Later, they cleanse themselves beneath the waterfalls of Satisfied. Few consider themselves permanent residents of Defeated. No matter how long they stay they always see themselves as passersby. No one cares to build mud cities. They save their efforts for other lands.
