Tescelle pulled up a map of the lower portion of the continent. Five out of six states including ours were divided, but all eting up at the center, where we planned on building Dreams. I looked to Alex and she adjusted her glasses, stepping forward; damn, she looked good in the light blue dress and her hair in a bun, mmm, but I did need to talk to her about harassing the other won later.
"I think we should go to Perdi first, they are the biggest threat to us since we will need food to survive for our city and they are the main producers of grains in the south. We can stop in Tyfon after, The King will be happy to see us."
"That sounds suspicious, but I like the idea of Perdi, it's close. What's the plan then? Fly straight to the castle? Bang on the door and throw three pairs of dice, with a sorry to the first two daughters?"
Mishka, Arrentia, and Xelios snickered, trying to hold back laughs, while Alex gave an eye roll. Okay, at least they thought my jokes were funny, but I finally relented to Alex, with a roll of my hand for her to continue. It looked like I might be the one on the chopping block next, maybe it was so kind of built up
'...sexual tension?' -Nina.
'You're not helping!'
"I suggest we go to the main farm Village first and then travel on land to the capital. We don't want to seem hostile and this village is almost more important than the city."
"What can you tell about the city? And the town, let's get so specifics, because from what I understand countries are living in different era's here. So with cars, and so with horses, right?"
"Yes, I have the report here Hyde!"
Keeta ca rushing over to the table with a piece of paper in hand, her breast and tail bobbing with her.
*Wack*
I deserved that, but where was Buddy? He was always great for not helping in these kinds of situations. I rubbed the back of my head with one hand as Keeta smiled shyly and handed the paper. That hand must have been Alex's that hit , oh well, what does this say?

Okay, this wasn't bad, except, you know, THE SLAVERY!
"Hey, Hey, Hey! What is this little part about slavery?!"
"You will find this everywhere we go, even when we get to Karst and the Cresting Wilds there will be slavery."
Alex said this like it was nothing, and I had to take a deep breath and rember where I was. Fucking place, whatever, I didn't have to like it. To the shit hole we go!
"Okay, let's drop down near Lamosta and we can go visit the town and the people there. I will try to play nice with the locals and get a feel for the place. Alex and Nuwari, would you two accompany into the town first and we can introduce ourselves before bringing the whole family over?"
I was surprised to see a blush on Alex's face and she turned from quickly, adjusting her glasses. That was interesting, but It did make sense; Alex wasn't craving sex, just so ti. Well, the three of us would do so shopping for supper and et so people. I also wanted to try and get a feel for the capital and it's people before we got there, the sheet Keeta handed looked cut and dry for a place like that, but who knew.
I stood up and smiled at the won, and everyone started to break apart, but I walked up to Titania. As I did I expanded and took her in my arms and kissed her, then leaning in and whispering in her ear about an idea I had. When I pulled back Titania smiled and kiss again, saying that she would talk to Grif about it for .
I was about to turn to Mishka but waited.
'Hey, are you free tonight?'
'No, I'll pass for now. Let Mishka have the night.' -Nina.
'Really? Do you not'
'Of course, I like you that way, but there are a lot of things coming up and I feel like I need to read more to understand how to help you. We will have more ti, I promise.' -Nina.
Wow, I was scared that I was about to get rejected by my own wife, but since she was picking up after Gripton...Mishka would be excited to spend the night, but do I tell her now or surprise her? I think telling her would be the best option, but then again, she liked the flying surprises. Ah, what the hell, it would be a surprise, or I would be sleeping alone.
I turned to look out the front window, but we were on the ground again, but there were golden fields everywhere I looked as I started to walk forward, but a hand grabbed mine. I was pulled around by Alex, who took by the arm and Nuwari joined on my other free arm. Well, I guess I could stare outside too.
It was ti to set foot in a new place, et new people, and try to build a relationship with these people. I didn't want to start giving everyone magic, or that would just start a war. No, I would just have to listen to my councilors and only speak to when spoken to, for now. I had a bad feeling about the capital, so hopefully, this small town of Lamosta would be better.
