"Korchayk, from time immemorial, has been known as a particularly rocky patch of land, barely suitable for agriculture, and historically, the region was known for exporting masons and *naft. The land was inhabitated mainly by the Kardukians until late in the Aršakid era, when Arminans began to migrate to the region, and in the present day, about half of the population in Korchayk are Arminans.*

Around the 11th century of the Sasanid era, rock faming (a semi-magical technique for creating diamonds out of normal rocks) was developed in Hrom, and over time, filtered into Iranshahr, with Armina soon becoming host to multiple rocks farms all over its territory, and the technique of rock farming was refined from the 15th century onwards.

Said refinement was to discover that sunlight tended to hurt productivity in rock farms, but since normal farms also needed said sunlight, the effect was to push rock farming into largely-agriculturally inproductive areas, such as Korchayk, Bardrzhayq and Dihistan. Such areas usually tended to receive only about a month of sunlight spread out over a year, with any less than that tending to have adverse effects in the health of the farmers. Even then, that still made for a particularly dreary environment.

And it was in one of those, in the outskirts of the town of Vorsirank, that Wardagauna Hripsimyan Karkadak was born in 1961 SE to Hripsime Karkadak (1935-) and Smbateš Eruvandyan (1936-), the third of four sisters: Hripsime (1956-), Maud (1958-) and Marmar (1961-)..."

"...The occasion of Wardagauna graduating from Gundišapur was a sufficiently large one to warrant the family getting their most formal outfits and traveling to Šareiša to have their photo taken..."

So, i based myself largely on pictures of Armenian traditional outfits for this one, and took advantage of the situation to write up my headcanon on rock farming. Not satisfied with the hands there.
