“My usual price for such fine cuisine is six widgets, but for you?” The vendor rubs his chin, making a show of thinking it over. “Make it three and you’ve got a deal.”

Morrus recoiled back again. If he was taller than Ekimu this would definitely be easier.
“I just told you.” He stuck his head out like a rebellious toddler. “Now that I know he’s here I’m leaving. The elders need to know it was your fool idea to release him.”
So saying, he turned around and walked two steps.
“…Oh no.” He felt his ribcage over in a panicked fashion. “Oh, no. Oh, I’m such a fool.”
And of course the stupid dog listens this time. The Lord of the Undying Storm sighed, ripping his axe out of the ground. Well, might as well vent my frustrations.
He began slicing and dicing the former body of the Lord of the Skies, sending wood shrapnel everywhere. “♪Once I Knew a gallant Knight, a gallant Knight in shining armour♫…”

“Oh, are we gonna make a campfire?” Suggested Twenty Three,“Great idea friend!”
“There’s a kid that knows his deals!” The vendor takes the money, and in return hands over a roll wrapped in an oversized leaf. The roll is warm to the touch, and smells of seafood and freshly-baked bread.
“I have him under oath. The Storm answers to me now, and helps me seek greater prey. I would think that yourself and the Elders would have greater concerns of your own, no?”
“Oh no what?” Risa asks. She looks at the Storm. “…him?”
“mmm!” Chook says, after scarfing down the roll. “Lets see what else is at this fair!” He says, glancing around. Chook then sees Domau’s station. “Hey that looks pretty cool!” he exclaims, and starts walking towards it.

“I can’t leave.” Morrus shakily responded. “All my resources for being able to fly are… Over there.” He glared at his larger ‘sibling’ making toothpicks out of his old body.
“He is the greater concern.” Morrus grumbled, slowly turning back to face Ekimu. “I blustered and bluffed and said maybe Erebos was still in existence, and they sent me after ice-brain over there as the only possible mastermind who could’ve abducted their somebody I hadn’t ever heard of before.”
Morrus plopped down, cradling his small head in his hands. “And now it turns out Erebos is not only alive, but well, and you’re headed after him, and my brother is your slave or whatever, and now I can’t leave. Why would I ever agree to do something so stupid as this?”
“You start preparing it and I’ll go find something to light it.” The Lord of the Undying Storm said before pacing away and chuckling loudly. Look Skies, it’s not MY fault, the DOG did it.

Domau noticed Chook at the corner his eye and stops what he his doing. He turns to him and offers to shake his hand, “Hello my name is Domau, do you have an interest in engineering?” he says politely.
“Hi! My name is Chook, and I’m looking for some sort of mentor. Engineering sounds fun, but I’ve never tried it. What does that machine do?” Chook says.
“I don’t really teach…” Domau admits scratching his head, “However watch this.” He contiues as a third arm appears from his backpack and grabs a flyer from his table, “I call this the heater” he says reffering to the flyer has his move aside to show of the metal box behing it. “One of the biggest issues these days is having to eat cold leftovers, right? with this you no longer need to do this thanks to revolutionary new technology and advancement in the science of elemental energy. I’ve used a fire elemental crystal combined with the newly discovered electricity to heat your leftovers.” He explains

Together, they manage to pull the shovel out. The recoil sends the root-clad fella backwards. He lands on his rear.
“Odd. When you mentioned digging, I got a strange… feeling.” He stares at the shovel for a while.
