HPU: Blue Peak Shore

[xhunterko]

ooc: Is spencers still with the group heading towards the city?

"ONLY in the nooks and crannies and trees and gutters, heh," Khun said, patting Flint with a shoulder hug, "Ready for adventure today then?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank you, Master Donau, charmed," she said, "Flattery gets you no where with us, but thank you. And apologies Master Kritaros. The husband and kitty he spoke of is the disgraced large hat you see being escorted away by Island security. I'm sure he will learn to behave in time and respect the proper authority here. Now, where's my daughter and son-in-law and daughter-in-law? Was there not enough room in that por..." She stopped abruptly, clenching Donau's poor hand. Breathing heavily in and out, everybody stopped and looked at her with anticipation. However, she held up a paw, waiting for the breathing to end. The wives held each others paws, looking on nervously, especially Vera.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luke gently held Raijda's paw, munching on a sandwich with the other. He looked at Avaros once as the lion sent him a message, then looked ahead again. Amber of course, was not eating. Luke paused a moment to look down at his and Raijda's paws. Then looked to Raijda in the eye, then nodded towards Amber, indicating she should do the same. Then he looked to Avaros again, smiling, trying to diffuse the tension.

"First flight?" He asked between bites.

Oh heavens no. No. THIS anger is only directed towards ONE specific person ONLY, namely her father. He's, done this, before. He is, competitive to say the least. Luke thought to him. Then he paused, frowning, and set down his sandwich.

And now I have a question for you. Why, may I ask, did you put the safety and security of a foreign dignity first OVER the safety and security of one of my WIVES?! He thought.

Amber turned her head, noticing the question, then looked away at Luke's expression, turning towards the window.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oooooooooohhhhhh you! OH HELLO!" Monique said, hugging the faerie.

"Are you returned to a living body too? Please tell me this is not the form you chose," Monique said, "But it is good to see you again! How are you finding Tricana?"

[valerio]

"Thank you, Master Donau, charmed," she said, "Flattery gets you no where with us, but thank you. And apologies Master Kritaros. The husband and kitty he spoke of is the disgraced large hat you see being escorted away by Island security. I'm sure he will learn to behave in time and respect the proper authority here. Now, where's my daughter and son-in-law and daughter-in-law? Was there not enough room in that por..." She stopped abruptly, clenching Donau's poor hand. Breathing heavily in and out, everybody stopped and looked at her with anticipation. However, she held up a paw, waiting for the breathing to end. The wives held each others paws, looking on nervously, especially Vera.

"Since we're at it," Donau asked, massaging his poor hand, his chippy manners not faltering, "Where does this hostility come from? We're not your enemies, here, I'm sure this was clearly explained to you guys."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luke gently held Raijda's paw, munching on a sandwich with the other. He looked at Avaros once as the lion sent him a message, then looked ahead again. Amber of course, was not eating. Luke paused a moment to look down at his and Raijda's paws. Then looked to Raijda in the eye, then nodded towards Amber, indicating she should do the same.

Amber turned her head, noticing the question, then looked away at Luke's expression, turning towards the window.

Avaros nibbled at his meat-filled sandwich, his expression giving away nothing as he thought-answered, <The safety of the man leading this island comes before *everyone's*, us High Shamans included. Without him, without a head of state for that matter, this returns to be a place humans can invade and subjugate at their leisure. Everything that is being built here shall crumble to dust. We cannot hold by by raw power only, my tribe tried that and the punishment was terrible for the lions. The tribes fought and almost got extinct...So, yes, much as it seems diminishing, a capable human must keep this island protected from the greed of his own peers.> He mentally sighed. <You are young, you have time to learn, to get wiser. Do not repeat the lions' mistakes just to appease your pride.>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Oooooooooohhhhhh you! OH HELLO!" Monique said, hugging the faerie.
"Are you returned to a living body too? Please tell me this is not the form you chose," Monique said, "But it is good to see you again! How are you finding Tricana?"

"Well, we noticed that humans are quite intrigued by the faerie folk, but for you I can choose another aspect. Matter is of no obstacle to us. Do you have a preference?"

[RandomGeekNamedBrent]

The wolf started eating again. "Yes, he has the purest of souls. Even the dark shamans couldn't get to him, a rare occurrence indeed. And if the world has room for one like him, there's hope for the tribes, too. But how did you get to become a Dreamwalker? You surely look young for the job, heh."

"Well, apparently spirits are drawn to me, and I helped a Lycaon village get closure with one named Barty who'd gotten lost in the rabbit tunnels," Levi explained. "I didn't know he was a ghost at first. but after that I was with a shaman when the resort sort of got invaded, so he told me how to do it, Barty helped protect me in the dream world, and I took out one of the invaders."

[valerio]

The female of the group looked intrigued. "Quite the interesting story. Listen, Levi, would like to complete your training with us? After all, we *are* the true repositories of the arcane arts of dealing with the spiritworld."

The female of the group looked intrigued. "Quite the interesting story. Listen, Levi, would like to complete your training with us? After all, we *are* the true repositories of the arcane arts of dealing with the spiritworld."[/quote]
"actually, yeah," Levi replied. "My last master turned out to be... not the best. she was kinda trying to use my life to get out of a curse or something."

[valerio]

"actually, yeah," Levi replied. "My last master turned out to be... not the best. she was kinda trying to use my life to get out of a curse or something."

"Amateurs," said the second male, then, "You'll have to stay with us for a time. We don't mind the pup. You and your mate you smell of, seek a building, move in and then look around, get acquainted with the place. Introduce yourself to the shaman later in the day: Should she decide you can learn with us, you'll stay with us for a while. Oh, and don't worry about finding her place, it will be easy to find." Then he described it... "It is located in the forest between here and the Sun Temple Mountain. No way there but with your feet. Will keep you in shape"

[Hlaoroo]

"No, Cambridge, Massachus--CIRCUS?!?" All of a sudden, his sophisticated body language switched to 'totallyhappypuppy' mode. His tail wagged once, he got a young man straight on the back and pushed him down together with his breakfast and a loud curse! "Hehe, sorry..?" he tried with a toothy apologetic grin. Then, back to the cats. "Circus?!? So you work in Mr. Gintama's show? AWESOME! He gets only the best of the best!!"

"Da." Sasha nods. "Ve do juggling and balancing."
"Also Sasha is dancing viz fire and I am doing contortion."
"Is fun show, I sink." Sasha smiles. "You like circus, zen?"

[valerio]

"Da." Sasha nods. "Ve do juggling and balancing."
"Also Sasha is dancing viz fire and I am doing contortion."
"Is fun show, I sink." Sasha smiles. "You like circus, zen?"

Falstaff nodded vigorously. Another wag of his curly tail -and another tourist, this time a woman, who flew into a man, both ending in a heap of dishes, beverages and cell phones. "Sorry!" Then to the cats, "Always loved it! Even if less and less circus are using animals, there are many that treat them with respect. Like this one. You've seen it, did you? It's like Circque du Soleil, but animals only. I wish I could do a strongfur number..." he sighed with longing in his eyes. "But how long have you been working in it? Why come here?"

[Hotep the psychic]

Kritaros smiled and decided to go see the husband of the group. With a courtious bow he stepped away and began to tread after the island security in hopes to keep the family together with that he may as well say hello to Mr. Spencers and kindly thank him.

"Cougars, are noble yet hostile by nature as predators. but each one is quite different the packs and families unlike lions share what they enjoy. the families are very caring to those they know and trust. Unless your a different species of big cat." Anubis said standing tall as he walked over to Donau's side. "I can personally say that here in Zilnawa,
your new home there is nothing to worry about. DO try to relax and leave your worries to anyone else you wish." Anubis said looking to Donau with a same smile "Im sure from the travels you must be excited or curious about everything, Donau here can tend to you seeing such."

[xhunterko]

After a few minutes, the breathing subsided, and Sanni breathed a sigh of relief.

"Apologies Master Donau," she said, letting go of his paw, checking for wounds first, "But of course, being 4000 years old, that must've happened a lot. And that is true Anubis, I'm sure Donau will do a fine job of that. Speaking of, while we are not enemies Donau, we are strangers and know not the rules of the land. Now, let's get going. Before my cubs are born in the streets and are the subject of rumors bringing bad omens." Everyone breathed thankful sighs and on her word, kept the procession moving forward.

"You'd think, it being my 3rd pregnancy, I'd be used to it, eh heh," she said, "Still though, where is my daughter and her family? On the way I assume? As far as how we know, well, last evening, several of our quote unquote magical things, just, worked. For some reason. Did anything happen here last evening?"

Markus grinned at Anubis.

"The benefit of not believing in anything is people like you see nothing in my soul," he said with a laugh, "In case you were wondering. Need to run off somewhere?"

[valerio]

After a few minutes, the breathing subsided, and Sanni breathed a sigh of relief.

As far as how we know, well, last evening, several of our quote unquote magical things, just, worked. For some reason. Did anything happen here last evening?"

"They are on their way, on a helicopter. The chieftains were...quite busy yesternight. And speaking of cubs, rest assured: The lycaon females here are the best midwives you can find. And worry not about bad omens: You are fourth tribe, you all are blessed, included your impulsive mate."

[RandomGeekNamedBrent]

"Amateurs," said the second male, then, "You'll have to stay with us for a time. We don't mind the pup. You and your mate you smell of, seek a building, move in and then look around, get acquainted with the place. Introduce yourself to the shaman later in the day: Should she decide you can learn with us, you'll stay with us for a while. Oh, and don't worry about finding her place, it will be easy to find." Then he described it... "It is located in the forest between here and the Sun Temple Mountain. No way there but with your feet. Will keep you in shape"

"are you saying I'm fat?" Levi asked, feigning wounded pride. "But I'll have to ask Alise first. is this a 'no contact with the outside world' kind of thing or am I gonna be able to talk to my mom and dad sometimes?"

[Hotep the psychic]

Anubus perked his ears at Markus before laughing. "Well for many seeing is believing. Though at least your not like others that say they dont have a soul. Though when i look inside you dear markus i see a warrior not a unbeliever....and a word of advice cub do watch tone. The guards of the temple during the day are more....easy to stir. And yes i do have to be elsewhere the other arrivals will be here shortly. Anubis said bowing to Donau and proceeding to follow kritaros to the docks to see to the red wolves arrival.

Then he turned to Markus for a small show "Oh and Markus, best turn towards believing what lies here once you do will you accept what truly lies within you" Anu is said smiling as he winks to donau and with a single flash was gone. The only thing remaining was a small black mark where he once stood and the small shower of flower petals.

When the fox appeared he was with kritaros a short distance away.
And both foxes began to arrive to greet the next arrivals

[Roarin]

ONLY in the nooks and crannies and trees and gutters, heh," Khun said, patting Flint with a shoulder hug, "Ready for adventure today then?

"Because my life is always so dull." Flint replied back flatly with snarky sarcasm. "Apparently there's some info about these titanboas in the city so... maybe it'd be best to start there? Actually, what are you doing here? I though you'd be tagging along with Levi and the gang."

[valerio]

"are you saying I'm fat?" Levi asked, feigning wounded pride. "But I'll have to ask Alise first. is this a 'no contact with the outside world' kind of thing or am I gonna be able to talk to my mom and dad sometimes?"

"You are far from being in shape, for our standards." She pinched his arm, pulling at the skin. "You will have to train a lot: despite what city-dwellers think, your body is going to be put through a lot of exertion. You must be at your peak, always."
"As for the 'contact' thing," one of the males said, "we are not like our darker brethren: you can speak with whomever you want, whenever you want. And if you have other deceased friends and/or relatives, all the better."

[RandomGeekNamedBrent]

"as long as I keep my speed and agility, I'm fine with that," the cat replied. "I guess I could do with a little more strength. I'll talk this over with Alise after breakfast."
he then remembered he wasn't alone. "are you cool with spending some time with wolves, Reg?"

[xhunterko]

NOW it was Luke's turn to be furious! He wanted to claw that lion. He moved slightly, staring at the animal. But remembered they were on a helicopter, and held his peace. He let the anger burn and fester to a small ember, intending to deal with the upstart servant when he had a better chance. To what Avaros thought, he returned nothing. He simply looked ahead.

How dare. How dare HE, a god cursed lion, who doesn't believe that his fellow island furs can lead the nation, tell ME to check MY pride. Impudent little. He thought to himself. Keeping his thoughts in his head.

You would think, Donau, that a person who pledged a life of servitude to you would show your station a bit more respect. Luke thought to him.

"When do we land," Luke said, to the pilots, keeping his tone even and emotions in check. Amber hated the silence, the first day was not going well. She could only imagine how poor Raijda was feeling. She simply rubbed and patted their held together paws, purring to her quietly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Fair enough, you know though, in ye olden times before people went on an adventure they sought the advice and help of a wise folk. The shamans hut, as transformative as it is, is just over there," Khun said, pointing with his staff.

"Want to go see if we can't get any help from the holy man with how to deal with the titanboas? They are supposed to be holy creatures, you know," Khun said.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Markus simply shook his head.

"Just wait tricksters, soon, I'll be surprising YOU!" He hollered out.

Sonni shook her head.

"Young folk," she said, "And I was meaning no mere pairing, or, shall we say, eh heh, tripling of souls, Donau. Here." She said, handing the rabbit what looked like an ordinary small (5 inch)wooden rectangular box with notches all etched evenly, as if on a spectrum.

"What do you think this was supposed to do?" She asked him, smiling. The box was ebony and decorated with etched layers on the sides.

[valerio]

"In a minute, Sir," said the pilot. The heliport was clearly in sight. Through the earpiece, instructions to landing were being transmitted to the human.
True to the man's word, the helicopter landed smoothly as programmed. They found Spencers himself waiting for them. "MY DEAREST FRIENDS," he said in a loud voice over the rotor's noise, his head low. "HOPE YOU SPENT A GOOD NIGHT! I'M SORRY TO INFORM YOU THAT THINGS WENT A BIT...HECTIC. I DEEPLy APOLOGIZE!""
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Fair enough, you know though, in ye olden times before people went on an adventure they sought the advice and help of a wise folk. The shamans hut, as transformative as it is, is just over there," Khun said, pointing with his staff.
"Want to go see if we can't get any help from the holy man with how to deal with the titanboas? They are supposed to be holy creatures, you know," Khun said.

"Pff! You need no holy man or creature for that matter!" Said a new voice.
The tiny voice of someone sitting on Flint's headfur.
A small, very very small naked human female with dragonfly wings. She looked as if made of blue light, like the local glowbats
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Markus simply shook his head.
"Just wait tricksters, soon, I'll be surprising YOU!" He hollered out.
Sonni shook her head.
"Young folk," she said, "And I was meaning no mere pairing, or, shall we say, eh heh, tripling of souls, Donau. Here." She said, handing the rabbit what looked like an ordinary small (5 inch)wooden rectangular box with notches all etched evenly, as if on a spectrum.
"What do you think this was supposed to do?" She asked him, smiling. The box was ebony and decorated with etched layers on the sides.

Donau looked at it. "Yes, it's a gadget the resort gives to the tourists to help them not get themselves lost. A portable map. In this case, methinks..." At his touch, the box projected a hologram of Zilnawa!

[xhunterko]

ooc: I'll let you val describe what the cougars are wearing. The box was intended to be a real magic relic handed down from generation to generation. That only worked when Donau attempted to get it to do so.

And here it was Sonni's turn to grin.

"So that's what it does," she said, "Best turn it off. That, my dear Donau, was handed down from generation to generation for at least 10 generations of chieftains. Yesterday night it just glowed like crazy back home. Tap one of the notches with a finger."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Khun tilted his head once, then with a swing of his staff and shouting, he attempted to thwart away the creature.

"BY THE FIRE OF ST. ELMO OFF! OFF I SAY! YOU FILTHY KIKIK OFF! BEGONE WITH YOU! BY THE POWER OF HUBERT! SHOO!" He shouted, trying NOT to hit Flint in the head.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two cats smiled, pointing at their ears.

"Thank you, Master Spencers, we can hear you just fine," Luke said, trying to remain obliviously clueless.

"Oh dear, what ever happened?" He said.

[valerio]

And here it was Sonni's turn to grin.
"So that's what it does," she said, "Best turn it off. That, my dear Donau, was handed down from generation to generation for at least 10 generations of chieftains. Yesterday night it just glowed like crazy back home. Tap one of the notches with a finger."

Donau did so.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Khun tilted his head once, then with a swing of his staff and shouting, he attempted to thwart away the creature.
"BY THE FIRE OF ST. ELMO OFF! OFF I SAY! YOU FILTHY KIKIK OFF! BEGONE WITH YOU! BY THE POWER OF HUBERT! SHOO!" He shouted, trying NOT to hit Flint in the head.

The faerie-thing flew off and in front of Khun. "Tss, what manners! And to think we just blended with you!" She turned, fluttering, arms crossed at her chest...then turned again. "You don't happen to remember us, eh?"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two cats smiled, pointing at their ears.
"Thank you, Master Spencers, we can hear you just fine," Luke said, trying to remain obliviously clueless.
"Oh dear, what ever happened?" He said.

As they walked away, Spencers explained what had transpired. "...and so you see, now our esteemed guests are going to their district ahead of you, and your father is...well, it is SO embarrassing. This day didn't really start out as nicely as I hoped. I think that Sanni is going to deliver. Will she accept the help and blessing from the lycaon midwives, far as you know? Oh, and great choice of dress," he added at the unisex gold-and-red long clothings that opened so to allow full freedom of movements to the limbs. It was symbolized as to wear the very light and let it flow around one's body

[Hlaoroo]

Falstaff nodded vigorously. Another wag of his curly tail -and another tourist, this time a woman, who flew into a man, both ending in a heap of dishes, beverages and cell phones. "Sorry!" Then to the cats, "Always loved it! Even if less and less circus are using animals, there are many that treat them with respect. Like this one. You've seen it, did you? It's like Circque du Soleil, but animals only. I wish I could do a strongfur number..." he sighed with longing in his eyes. "But how long have you been working in it? Why come here?"

"Er, maybe ve should changing seats so zat your tail is near vall instead of people." Dinara suggests with a grin.
"Ve have vorked in circus four years but ve have practise for two years more zan zat. Ve came here because circus in Moscow er, is, er, close after ringmaster died."
"Vhy you could not do strongfur act, Falstaff? Your tail certainly is looking strong!"

[Roarin]

"Ack, hold your fire Gandalf!" Flint had to quickly lean back to avoid the smiting stick, sending with a soft *plop* onto his butt as he leaned in a siting position on the ground. "Mmh... remember you? I've never seen a creature like you in my lif-...". The canine paused, thinking about the past day.
"Wait, you wouldn't happen to be from Mars would you?"

[valerio]

"Er, maybe ve should changing seats so zat your tail is near vall instead of people." Dinara suggests with a grin.
"Ve have vorked in circus four years but ve have practise for two years more zan zat. Ve came here because circus in Moscow er, is, er, close after ringmaster died."
"Vhy you could not do strongfur act, Falstaff? Your tail certainly is looking strong!"

After they had changed seats, Falstaff explained, "Dad and Mom don't want to, they say it's not dignified: I studied a lot to teach to other dogs. I work a lot online and help them build up knowledge. Even with wikipedia available, nothing beats the direct words of a teacher, they say. After this vacation, I'll go back to the university with them."

"Ack, hold your fire Gandalf!" Flint had to quickly lean back to avoid the smiting stick, sending with a soft *plop* onto his butt as he leaned in a siting position on the ground. "Mmh... remember you? I've never seen a creature like you in my lif-...". The canine paused, thinking about the past day.
"Wait, you wouldn't happen to be from Mars would you?"

The tiny woman somersaulted, then applauded producing jets of sparks from her hands. "Bingolo! You win a fridge! I was the one that had blended with Flint here, so I feel to him like a big sister watching over her doofus little brother."

[Roarin]

Flint give a small applause at the show of fireworks. "Well does the small big sister have a name?
...Hey! Who are a calling a doofus?"

[valerio]

Flint give a small applause at the show of fireworks. "Well does the small big sister have a name?
...Hey! Who are a calling a doofus?"

She *booped* Flint's nose. "*you* are. I know everything about you, I couldn't let you wander all around this place without nothing but goodwill. You'll end up fishbait before lunchtime. I am here to help you!"

[xhunterko]

Khun stopped swinging for a moment, eyeing the creature suspiciously.

"You SURE she's not a kikik?" Khun asked.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And at the tap, another ancient city, Edo, appeared on the hologram.

"And this one, and this, and this," Sanni said, tapping a different notch, then one on the end, "We think this one's alien, but we're not sure." Then she turned it off and pocketed it again.

"Not much farther I take it?" She asked.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monique shook her head.

"No sweatie, but I think you should keep your appearances to a minimum in that form," she said, "I'll guess I'll torture that lycaon later, but come on! We have my uncle to meet!" Then she looped back up into the air, and dove bombed her way heading to Salisgrave Village!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luke just shook his head.

"Thank you, at least they do their job," Luke said.

"Still, I MUST protest, Mister Spencers," Amber said, with a grin, "A six AM wake up time on our wedding night?" There was a playful hint in her eye to denote she wasn't serious.

"Oh she'll love the lycaons. But yes, Sanni is not, that fond of, too much, whirring and buzzing," Amber said, "That's not to say she's a luddite, she appreciates turning the lights on and off, but too many gadgets and gizmos and she's had enough. Old people." She added with an eye roll.

[Hotep the psychic]

Kritaros and Anubis soon arrived at the pier before splitting off. KRiatros ended up following the security team after the cougars husband to help his predicament and Anubis sat in his spot looking about. ".... well....this is ironic" He said abit aloud with a blinking expression as he looks into the water his mind made him smile as he was back where it all began on the island.

he then looked around and set his staff down letting it stand straight up and down for the time being. the fox standing nearby waited patiently and looked about his ears tuning to every sound as he stood in a bit of a meditative state.

As for kritaros he soon made it to the building holding the husband of the cougars and looked about. he walked over to the desk and hopped up for the person to see. "Excuse me,
im hear to see the male cougar that arrived recently. do you mind if i get to talk with him?" Kritaros asked kindly.
(not sure if a desk just going with something)

[Roarin]

"Everything?" Flint raised an eyebrow, a grimace flashing on is muzzzle for the briefest moment before he turned to Khun. "I... don't even know what a kikik is, so you're gonna have to start from there."

[valerio]

And at the tap, another ancient city, Edo, appeared on the hologram.
"And this one, and this, and this," Sanni said, tapping a different notch, then one on the end, "We think this one's alien, but we're not sure." Then she turned it off and pocketed it again.
"Not much farther I take it?" She asked.

The wolves and cougars walked through the gate.
Despite the place being HUGE, as of now it didn't host enough ihabitants to be classified as a 'busy' place. There were furs walking here and there, birds in the sky...but the place was still eerily quiet.
"Your temporarily assigned district is just ahead," Donau said. "Of course, with time and as the population grows, and what with the flux of rescue animals, you all will be blending more and more until there are no districts at all, but for now it is better than the four tribes find their own place to set up. here you go. Your new home. Oh, and did I say already that we used to play with architectural styles?"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Monique shook her head.
"No sweatie, but I think you should keep your appearances to a minimum in that form," she said, "I'll guess I'll torture that lycaon later, but come on! We have my uncle to meet!" Then she looped back up into the air, and dove bombed her way heading to Salisgrave Village!

"Uncle? But were dead, who that uncle would be?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luke just shook his head.
"Thank you, at least they do their job," Luke said.
"Still, I MUST protest, Mister Spencers," Amber said, with a grin, "A six AM wake up time on our wedding night?" There was a playful hint in her eye to denote she wasn't serious.
"Oh she'll love the lycaons. But yes, Sanni is not, that fond of, too much, whirring and buzzing," Amber said, "That's not to say she's a luddite, she appreciates turning the lights on and off, but too many gadgets and gizmos and she's had enough. Old people." She added with an eye roll.

"You tell me, chieftain. When I built the resort, the locals thought I wanted to provoke the dark forces onto the island. So, is there anything else I am supposed to know before involuntarily offending someone? And sorry for the early call, honest...Won't happen again, though I guess that it was a night to remember, eh?"

Kritaros and Anubis soon arrived at the pier before splitting off. KRiatros ended up following the security team after the cougars husband to help his predicament and Anubis sat in his spot looking about. ".... well....this is ironic" He said abit aloud with a blinking expression as he looks into the water his mind made him smile as he was back where it all began on the island.
he then looked around and set his staff down letting it stand straight up and down for the time being. the fox standing nearby waited patiently and looked about his ears tuning to every sound as he stood in a bit of a meditative state.
As for kritaros he soon made it to the building holding the husband of the cougars and looked about. he walked over to the desk and hopped up for the person to see. "Excuse me, im hear to see the male cougar that arrived recently. do you mind if i get to talk with him?" Kritaros asked kindly.

The soldier at the desk looked at the canine, blinking. "Err...Sure, but you must sign the register first." He showed Kritaros an open book. According to the register, the last prisoners here were the pirates that had attempted to take over the Resort. Close to their names had been stamped "SENTENCED".
Close to the cougar's name was stamped "DETENTION24" And then there was a column for the visitor's name.
"Purpose of your visit, Sir?"

Oh the poor, poor thing. Monique thought.

"THIS uncle, eh heh," Monique said, smacking right into Khun's neck, knocking him to the ground!

Khun was about to explain what the kikik was, with a paw and finger lifted in the air, before suddenly.

"OOOF!" Khun shouted, being sprawled out flat! Monique hugged him in a warm embrace before floating over to his nose, hugging it as well.

"HEEEEEELLLLLLOOOOOO UNCLE!" She said, hugging him tight.

"WHAT THE DEVIL WAIT WAIT, WHAT hold a minute?!" Khun said, reorienting himself before sitting, getting a good look at the, now live, smiling, warm loving fruit bat, her little heart beating against his nose. It took a minute for Khun to process everything, but he sat there staring at Monique for a second, blinking.

"You, you don't remember? Do I look that strange?" Monique said, pouting very sad, then Khun just melted. He picked up the little bat from his nose and gently hugged her against his neck, trying not to cry.

"No, no, it's just, surprising, that's all, eh heh," Khun said, crying a little, "But here, here, let's look at you." He held her out arm's length and she smiled a little.

"A demigoddess eh? That's a bit of a promotion after being dead eh?" Khun said, smiling tearfully. He didn't care who was there, he cried anyway.

"Yep, eh heh, alive, alive and I suppose, more so, and, heh, empowered, you would say, eh heh," Monique said, crying, she then flew back to Khun's neck, hugging him once more.

"Hey fam," she said.

"Hey fam," he replied, he sniffed up the tears as she settled down on his shoulder, in a relaxed position.

"Surprised you have time for this old dog," Khun said, "I'm sure you're busy."

"Yeah, but I CAN make time for YOU," she said, giggling, then she looked over to their company and blushed.

"Oh, heh heh, hey there Flint," she said, waving nervously.

"Goodness that IS a big place," Sonni said, looking around, "Still though, a number of us will want to live with our chieftains. We will move with them eventually I'm sure." The head group stopped a moment, taking in the view, causing everyone to stop. Vera tapped Donau's shoulder and nodded towards Anubis.

"Fishing for a heart is he?" She said. Smiling.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"If Markus is here, don't listen to a word he says, he's an idiot," Amber said flatly, with Luke nodding. Amber could only marvel at the place as they walked through.

"I'm sure the cost to build this place was enormous, but well worth it I hope," Amber said, "How long did it take you to build it again Mister Spencers? I heard you used magic and it was built overnight." She added with a smile.

"And yes, it WAS quite a night," she said with a smile.

[valerio]

"Fishing for a heart is he?" She said. Smiling.

"I don't know about that: despite his name and fur color, I don't think he was demoted to the underworld affairs. Oh, and by the way: This place is made of...welll...transdimensional pockets, you could say. Space is bent in many ways as to accommodate many, many districts and up to 5 million inhabitants. You will discover that there are no 'warping' effects or such, you just walk around and discover that this place is way bigger than it appears outside. Questions? Your chieftains will be here soon."

"And yes, it WAS quite a night," she said with a smile.

Spencers smiled. "For the rest of the world, we used an incredible feat of technology to build it, but as you surely know, the existence of Zilnawa is due to divine intervention. This is a magic place through and through, built using transdimensional pockets..." he repeated Donau's explanation. "Space won't be a problem for a long, long time here. Ah, there they are!" His gaze went to the cougar group not far from them

Kritaros took the book and signed his name in old cursive before passing the book back. "hmmm i guess you could say im here as an advisor to the island and its people. The husband of the cougars is needed to be present within his new home after all no need to be in a cage. Im Sure Mr. Spencers Will understand that one of the shamans of the Island is here to talk to the cougar and help....And do feel free to tell him that another Shaman and guards stand awaiting the other arrivals" Kritaros said as he hopped down and began to head for the detention cell with a wave of his staff which easily disapeared.

The guard decided not to question the 'mystic' aspect of that speech -after all, after being sworn into top-level secrecy, they had seen and experienced things that no humans...
The man stood up. "Orders are for a 24-hour detention, no more, no less than that. And they come from the President himself. If you object to that, you should appeal to him, not me. I can only accompany you to the prisoner's cell. And as it is, we are treating him at our best as per dispositions. Please, follow me." And the man led Kritaros along a maze of corridors, until they stood in front of a transparent door. Its material looked like glass, but it was almost as strong as steel.
The cell looked...bare. A bed, where the cougar would sit, and nothing else.
"The walls are ShoWall technology, the furniture is retractable and climate is automatically regulated on the prisoner's unique metabolism, just like food. I can assure you that, despite the appearances, the prisoner can just ask for any food or entertainment he wishes for and he can get it. A medical team is ready to assist in case of necessity. Do you wish to enter?"

[Hlaoroo]

After they had changed seats, Falstaff explained, "Dad and Mom don't want to, they say it's not dignified: I studied a lot to teach to other dogs. I work a lot online and help them build up knowledge. Even with wikipedia available, nothing beats the direct words of a teacher, they say. After this vacation, I'll go back to the university with them."

"Ah. Vhat you are teaching?"
"Fetch, I sink. Or maybe how to drink from toilet." Sasha quips, earning him a punch on the arm from his sister.

[valerio]

"Fetch, I sink. Or maybe how to drink from toilet." Sasha quips, earning him a punch on the arm from his sister.

Falstaff used what he had on the tray to make up a 'Dagwood' sandwich and downed it in two gargantuan bites. he accompanied it with a glass of milk.
"No prob, I get that a lot. I teach first an foremost to stay away from urban myths about common science. You don't have an idea about the number of pets who get hurt or poisoned by their own hands, only because of rumors. And there are a *lot* of things to remember in everyday life. For example, did you know that instant 'tealess' tea is poison to us?"

[Hotep the psychic]

"If i am allowed, and with true honesty i would like to appeal the 24 hour detention." Kritaros said before awaiting entry a smile on his face as he spotted the cougar. he would thank the security guard that accompanied him after entering and keep his hands behind him as he looked over the male.

"Sorrowful to someone like you in a cage like this even so short a time....though i digress, my manners are not what they once were. I am Kritaros, one of the few shamans of the island. I welcome you to Zilnawa....Care for something to eat or drink?" Kritaros asked as he summons his staff and sets it against the ground to lean against.

[valerio]

The guard outside said, "I will report your request to the President. Commands are voice-activated, so just...ask, if need. And, please, do not attempt breaking out via magical means. This place...won't allow it." With that, the guard left.

[Roarin]

"Nice to see you again Monique." Flint quipped back with a smirk and a nod. "Looking more lively than ever I see. Guess this means we all have flying companions now eh?"

[valerio]

"as long as I keep my speed and agility, I'm fine with that," the cat replied. "I guess I could do with a little more strength. I'll talk this over with Alise after breakfast."
he then remembered he wasn't alone. "are you cool with spending some time with wolves, Reg?"

The puppy kept moving his head between the wolves and his new 'daddy'...before nodding. "If you're OK with them. And if mom is Ok with them..."

"then I guess we should finish our breakfast and go find your mom," Levi said before he went to finish his plate.
