Waiter: Before i leave, I noted the whisky here, but any drink for you also or will the water be enough?

Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: Wait... so if i'm getting things straigh here... is all of this free here?

Waiter: But ofcourse! This is heaven, all the burdens of mortal life are relegated for the mortal realms, purgatory and hell...

Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: huh...

@Shadrack Nor

Water works for me, thank you. I like this system you have here.

Waiter: Certainly good sirs, if that will be all?

Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: Yeah, a bottle of your finest whisky! Also why are there no prices anywhere on the menu? All i see is this star symbol where prices should be...

Waiter: Certainly, the star symbolizes the gratitude to God for the blessing of heaven, the privilege of being his image bearers - i.e. the soul and sentience - and the blessings of eternal life - Heaven and reincarnation. Also it is a way of saying that working for him in any fashion - I.E. charity, earns us all good karma.

Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: My brain hurts right now... forget i asked...

@Shadrack Nor

That makes sense. Thank you for your help.

*Waiter proceeds to manifest out of light again*

Waiter: Good sirs! Have you decided then i take it?

Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: Uh... Yes! Can you please get me the liberty steak platter since i see you have quite the detailed menu? Oh and a side dish of potato fries! *I grin then i look you over and remember the comfort zone comment - i sigh* i'm probably going to regret this *I speak under my breath whispering* Would you please also get me a... what was it... Bulvonian grill with it's traditional salad on the side?

@Shadrack Nor

*Smiles*
I’ll go with a root vegetable salad with roasted seasonal greens.

Yup, i criticize the stuff i don't like openly, if people can't take it, it's their problem, not mine. *I close the menu* Decided! *I proceed to snap my fingers*

@Shadrack Nor

In any case—
*Closes my menu*
Same here.
*Clicks my fingers*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*I blink confused* That sounded... way more complicated than it had to... but suit yourself *I proceed to scroll to any area involving steak, bacon, hamburger and the such, grilled meats.* Oh my god! This menu is HUGE! What's a Bulvonian grill? I never heard of that animal...

Wait... he said this is a human menu! Where's the cow stake? Well done preferably? *I keep turning pages, and i finally find the section marked, Terran based foods* Ah here we go!

@Shadrack Nor

Ah.
*Quietly flips the page*
And you had the guts to criticize my palette.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Yeah... i mean... wait are you a vegan?! *I hold a laughter*

*Within next moment he reappears with a flourish of plates, forks, knives and spoons for the both of us, and condiments and a jug of water, then gives us two... rather thick menus... it is not possible that they would have all human foods ever... right? What's more, once opened it seems like there are no prices next any dish... just a symbol of a star...*

Waiter: I'll leave you to decide, and click your fingers when you are ready! *He smiles and vanishes again*

@Shadrack Nor

Thank you!
*Opens the menu*
I stick to plant-based diets when given the choice. But if a culture primarily eats meat, I will in order to avoid being rude. Rejecting a society’s food is a quick route to being branded an outsider.

Waiter: Much appreciated! Indeed, you'll find that many such paradoxical null-dimensional zones web this entire Akashic sphere. Now if you'll excuse me i'll be right back with the menus and the tableware!

*He vanishes in a flash of light*

@Shadrack Nor

*Straightens my chair*
I can’t wait to see what they serve. I wonder if they can even serve meat, since you would have to kill for it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Yeah, thanks! Hey, what's up with the senseless world out the windows?

Waiter: it is a pocket dimension world with the restaurant at its center...

@Shadrack Nor

That's very creative. I'm glad we have the opportunity to share in this experience.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Waiter: No worries, it is completely understandable, and considering this is a multiverse serving restaurant, we do not have any specific traditions, but as a formality we do expect our visitors to pray a prayer of thanksgiving to God for the nourishment and the blessings of everlasting life. *He smiles serenely as he picks up the alien targeted tableware* I will be back promptly with a homosapiens specific menu if that is all sirs?

@Shadrack Nor

Of course, thank you. I appreciate your help.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*As you say that, a bright light apears next to us and out of it a formally dressed four armed green humanoid comes out, with eight blue eyes*

Waiter: Ahem... Welcome to The Nexus! How can i help you kind sirs? Would you like a change of tableware since you obviously are homosapiens?

@Shadrack Nor

That would be excellent, thank you. This is our first time; is there anything we need to be careful to observe?
