In the distance, a well-dressed gentleman with a fatherly countenance approaches the gate. Close by him is a young four-armed Apophis Golem, Lucida, and not quite as closeby is a young Raptor Harpy Golem, Aegis. Lucida speaks as she slides along close to her father, Doctor Ibrahim.

"Are you sure this is a good idea, Papa?  They haven't had much time to recover.   I can't help but feel sorry for all those Oblations..."

I pat her shoulder. "Jeiel's got things quite in hand, Lu.  I promised him I'd stop by and pay a visit to the Naetherkin in the hospital. We probably won't be here long.  And if we have to seperate, Aegis will stick with you."

Aegis walks along, her head swiveling as she takes in all the sights. "Whoa, Lu, you weren't kidding.   That city is huge!  How in the heck did they get emeralds so big??"

"Probably the same way they get everything else, Aeg.  Magic. It's rife in this place.  And in the wilds, it's dangerous as all get out."

"Pfft, I'm not scared.  They wouldn't know me from a hole in the wall Harpy, I'll bet."

"All right, girls, stick close when we get in the gates." I raise my voice slightly so that they both hear me.

"Yes, Papa."

"Okay, Dad."
