About that giaprey thing. Remember in Freedom where you would occasionaly run into white velociprey in the forest and hills and some other places with relatively no snow, but before Freedom they were never seen before, and then after Freedom white velociprey were never seen nor mentioned ever again? You could say that white velociprey were in fact giaprey themselves, but they did not have the ability to spit and did not share any similar habitat as the giaprey found in the snowy mountains or the tower.

The inability to spit snow was either a result the much warmer climate of the regions white velociprey were found in did not allow it, or they were a transitionary stage in the evolution of giaprey where the ability was still in development.

I have a counter theory though. Instead of giaprey originating in the snowy mountains, they could have originally started in the tower itself. Surely velociprey didn't just waltz into the middle of the mountains, already adapted to take the freezing temperatures. The tower is located in a tropical region with moderate temperatures, and you know, the higher you go the colder it gets. By ascending the tower over a few generations, velociprey could have easily adapted to somewhat colder environments, so comes the white velociprey running around the land. Over a couple more generations, the white velociprey have become fully adapted to the higher, colder environments present in both the snowy mountains and the higer parts of the tower.

So there you go, two completely seperate populations. Just hurrying it up because I have to run.
