It is believed that this is a natural evolution due to living in a Binary star system. The Laundeans actual have dual eye lids (two eye lids rather than one,) ���??the usual skin eye lid and then a second transparent layer that can be moved separately. This second eye lid and yellow eye colour ensure protection from the sun���?�s rays when Til���?�hon���?�s second sun comes into season during the summer ���??acting like a pair of manufactured sun shades would for Terrans. | ||

Likewise, the entirety of a Laundean���?�s earlobe (although neither pointy nor any larger than a Terran���?�s) is coloured in the same exotic shades.

This evolutionary theory is supported by the fact that a royal noble would marry with a royal noble (regardless of kingdom of origin) and a worker with a worker, etc. Of course this was a long time ago in Duronis' history, and is now redundant as Laundeans freely intermix. The presence of purple hairlines may suggest Laundeans with red colouring may at one time have existed and that the purple hair lines descended from their having children with blue hairlined Laudeans ���??but this is unclear. | ||
