> [Daran] "The feel of it reminds me of that anomaly," Daran pondered.

> [Daylinn] Now what is interesting is the treasure it found, some sort of metallic object of unknown origin, looking as though it fell right out of the sky.

> Alice's eyes narrow again
> Very strange! How did you happen to learn of this?
> Did you see it or did the dragon tell you?

"See Daran, see it does understand me." She looks to her friend.

"Remarkable," he says thoughtfully.

She attempts to peer around the mask, and sees more of Alice's face. "Oh! Do you know what I think this is? It's an animated doll, but the construction is plasma and not cloth."

"If it was that would be a revelation." Daran takes up a goblet and takes a drink. "Mmhm, this is why I do this," He remarks to himself proudly.

"Okay, little shemlan, how would we know? Wouldn't you think we could investigate a loud boom in the local mountains?" She turns to Daran, it's not very bright, but still very remarkable for what it is.

> Alice takes the goblet and takes a sip
> Excellent! Such rich flavor, a lot of volatile compounds adding to the scent too! Very different from the apples I know. Truly wonderful. I bet it would taste even better if I could perceive magic!
> Thank you for letting me have this, now I shall no longer taint you with my goblin scent and proceed to the sheep alongside the lowly human!

"HA! What a hilarious little shem it is." Daran says with glee, or it could be the cider, it's quite strong.

"Look at it go."

[This may be out of order, but treat it accordingly.]

> Heroes? I'd prefer not to. I was living peacefully as a hermit worshiping Eldath

"As you should, who is to say you can't?" Daylinn remarks.

> Please be kind to Alice Master Edermath she is not a tool but my comrade and friend. And definitely not for sale.

"Shame," Daran says, "well keep it clean at the very least."

> She came from the sky and ultimately another star rather than another plane as far as I understand.

"Oh? A starseed shem doll? Interesting, we've not even begun to map the many inhabited spheres of the material plane, just as the children of Ilúvatar were undoubtedly starseeds originally. How could we even relate to the crude and frail creatures of this sphere?"

> The same goes for all my party members... but some very strange powers.

"Well at any rate, what an unfortunate waste of uniqueness on such a creature," he says with a scowl

"If there was only an easy way to increase their lifespans." Daylinn added.

He waved his hand dismissively and seemed uninterested in the prospect, "You said it yourself Yulya, troublesome, short-lived is their best attribute, imagine if they lived a thousand years, oh gods please save us from such torture."

Daylinn laughed, "we'd rather ascend back to our home sphere wouldn't we Daran?"

"In a heartbeat! At any cost!"

> I rescued them all... I am afraid something terrible is about to unfold...
"Follow that instinct, dear Yulya," Daylinn said and took Alice's goblet.

"Take that to the pigs, let their stench mask the goblin's."

She smiled and excused herself to re-enter the home.

"Daylinn! That girl will never listen!"
