Kobe Tai

Kobe Tai aka St. Kobe
Saint of Popomundo and general enigma.

Kobe appeared in the world on 2002-11-25. She's a traveller between the worlds and has been reported dead several times, only to return from the Land of the Dead after a while.
Some know her for helping the ones in dispear, but most widly she's known as the mother of Brian Tai, the first child to be born into the world.

On 31.53 (2007-09-29) she announced, “I return to bring forth an important message to the world. I implore you all to heed my words. My message is for the world entire, and shall be pronounced and revealed as i travel the world in my new shape.” Kobe then travelled the world and held speeches in parks, which consisted of one verse of the following poem:

Mistrust and hate now reigns in Melvin's land.
A wound so grave and hard to understand
That all of us must painfully endure
This rot - until the brave can find a cure

The strife and bickering of our past
Produced a horror terrible and vast
And thus one day, the time-space fell apart
A rift emerged, from old world new depart

But woe! The world we found to spend our lives
unstable is and trembles as mankind arrives
Foul deeds now threaten to produce a rift
Once more and this time fatal, not a gift

As omens rise with woe in west and east
A winged and foul most fearsome feathered beast
Will seize and capture hearts and lands once green
Of all who doubt the triumph of our Queen

But no dispair! The mending can be done
And peace and joy prevail under the sun
An epic battle soon here shall be fought
A woeful time of perils, doubts and fraught

A group of men and women pure in heart
Couragously and armed with skill and art
Each blessed and with a muse from Greece acquaint
Will venture out to aid the Lady Saint

The tune most French will herald as the four
Heroic soldiers next proclaim the core,
The most important change we all must make
For Melvin's world to heal and new awake


It is not sure, if Kobe's whole message came through, because she announced “Epicenter of Prophecy - Five pieces of message have arrived. Five pieces now remains. And so, the unfolding of the past, present and future is itself a matter of the past, the present and the future. Naught is set in stone, yet all foreseen.”.
Maybe the last three verses got lost under the uproar that followed her speeches or she got silenced before she could deliver all, when she got shot by an unknown person with a riot shotgun and was put to rest at an Underworld Prison in Amsterdam on 31.54 (2007-09-30).

Kobe revived in the Underworld Prison in Amsterdam on 40/37. She turned into a zombie, briefly visited Hotel Queen Mary in LA (got interrogated there by Jarkko Bono) and then returned to the Underworld Prison again. The purpose of her brief vacation was not disclosed.

Day 40 (St. Kobe's Day) of the Popomundo calendar is dedicated to her.
