All hail the Chosen One!
*Snickers and drops the blade of grass*

@Heroic

yeah… Yeah!
*places my hands on my hips*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

I chose you!
*Smiles, then bends over and plucks a blade of the grass*
Woah…

@Heroic

Huh, yeah I guess you did.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*Smiles*
I think this is what the Startender meant about the new era thing, by the way. From what I understand, this place hasn’t had visitors in eons other than my teacher.
*Our ride comes to a crawl, then a halt, over the path just outside the village. After a moment, the floor beneath us gives way and drops us a mere few inches onto the ground, standing on grass with a teal coloration and a dim luminescence to each blade*

@Heroic

I like to think that I am the Chosen One.
*digs my shoes into the ground*

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

Hey, thank you for tagging along. I had no clue any of this would work out, and I appreciate your help more than you know.
*We soar through a cloud and start to slow down as we approach a path leading to a modest village that seems rather primitive on its own, but is surrounded by entire buildings made of material that seems to glow an orange-brown, interconnected by bridges of light that stretch high into the sky and resemble modern skyscrapers that appear ethereal. My jaw drops at the sight*

@Heroic

Yeah, I’m glad you allowed me to tag along.
*looks around as I speak*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*Laughs as we soar through the air, and I turn around again to take in the sights as we fly*
You rock!

@Heroic

*smiles at your excitement*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

I-
*The room begins to shift once more, accelerating toward the planet and taking us harmlessly into its atmosphere*
Well.

@Heroic

Oh, well that’s convenient.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

Thank you so mu-
*Turns to look at the Antiquarian, but I notice he's no longer standing in the room with us, then I look upward*
Thank you.

@Heroic

So… how do we get there?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*Steps aside, as the room seems to suddenly shift its viewpoint to a location closer to the star- an F-Type with a bluish white tint- and I step aside. The space previously filled with nothing suddenly begins to warp as an entire planet slowly phases into view. The planet is clearly very lush, with vast oceans, vibrant green landscapes, and luminescent regions of various colors spattered throughout that glow like distant neon*

@Revolutionary

*stands in awe*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*The walls, floor and ceiling of the room once again grow transparent, this time in space as we rest in orbit around a single star which seemingly has no planets of its own*
I grant you admission to Ilouro under the terms that you maintain the peace, and do not bring harm to any people within my domain. As a favor to our mutual friend Aster.

@Revolutionary

*bows*
I agree with the terms.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

I rest with knowledge of your society, but am not a part of it. Her and her predecessors have all maintained respect for me, as I have of them, considering the favor I did for your history.

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

If she introduced herself to you at all, she would likely have simply referred to herself as the Startender.

@Revolutionary

I…I don’t think we ever exchanged names. But that is good to know. Aster The Startender. Neat!

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

I would call her my best friend. She's super cool.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

She did! I'm surprised you call her by her name.

@Heroic

Everyone you know and you have cool names.
