Anicca : (gives Repter a pair of furrowed eyebrows) I haven't forgotten, man of the SkyHammer. Don't worry - we're gonna make sure your tatty-poo women don't race to claim you out of a Dragon's maw. It'll work out. (Seems to stare lucidly into the open air) I hope.

To Cairngorgon, Anicca seemed to pause. "...why? Were you expecting we'd be flattened to bits? Hah. Not when you two are... mana-rich." She pops her head up a ledge - and prompts Repter and Cairngorgon to see what she was seeing.

Overhead, under a rocky maw of a cave opening sat four Ozian Dragons. They were in Mamono form, yes - but they were three times larger than the average woman. Their scaley wings were folded behind them, and they convened in just their underwear. They were... playing with a jumble of games by their feet. Mahjong pieces... poker chips... playing cards...

...what the heck are they even doing?

One of them hollers. Their cavern home rumbles with her boisterous voice.

="I WIN !! I WIN!!"=

All of the sudden, there is a ring from Anicca's communicators, immediately broadcasting TJK's voice within the cave. The Dragon's ears flicker in alarm, and Anicca curses. "SH*T!! OF all the bloody timing --"

TJK tries to get a hold of Anicca - but only sees black. On the other hand, the Ryu waits for the man's approval. Speaking of which... TJK hadn't gotten hold of her name.

Mooj hands both Fleur and a skeptical Lailani a tea cup - and he poofs to a nearby seat still holding the tray in hand. "It's funny, yes. There are two tales to how Oz came to be. One was the lore written in the Mysteries of Iznagmi, where the single goddess of unknown origin split her divine essence to create both Oz and the Naether. The second is the convention of heathen goddesses Hecate, Demeter and Eris. Eris sired FEAR, who shaped the fabric of the Naether, while Demeter and Hecate shaped Oz and imbued their power in it."

Lailani listened intently and commented, "If you ask me.. the more logical of the Oz myths is neither. Both have a flaw to some extent but... still. I admire how divinities have led to the creation of the land of magic itself."

Mooj : (shakes a cup in his hand) Agreed.
