Etymology
Both the name of the people and the symbiont ecosystem they inhabit are derived from the name of the being hosting them, Aasooloonasasuu. The names are still classified as unofficial substitutes and should be avoided in formal communication.History
Origin
The first aasoolonans were the medusean dakuth and the furoot saved by Aasooloonusasuu during Glitterburst’s collapse, as well as the descendants of the latter. The furoot saw their third generation of rootkits born before the dormant Aasooloonusasuu was discovered by the inhabitants of Rosepetal. In order to revive the prime dakuth it was necessary to remove most of the complex fauna, including the aasoolonans, so the symbiont ecosystem could recover to a state where it again could support its host.Homecoming
Decades later, after Aasooloonusasuu had fully recovered and settled on Papacalla, the last generation of furoot aasoolonans made a collective pilgrimage to see their deity-savior again. They were offered to return to their homes in aasoolona; an invitation that was readily accepted and they’ve lived there ever since.Anthropologic Data

I am having fun reading all these words out loud. Such an interesting ethnicity. I love that they are superstitious of metals.
Hehe, glad to hear it. It's soooo difficult to resist the urge to dive into another conlang-mire and stick to thematic naming for the time being. :D I plan to extrapolate on their superstitions/beliefs in a separate article. :) Base idea was that back on their homeworld, some furoot groups opposed development of post-neolithic tech because the soil and stone is far less generous than wood, water and air, and could get angry if their materials were stolen and used.
