Calia: (standing up) Ugh! I�m soaked!
Morpheus: What a lovely day, as usual. Come Calia, don�t be sour.
Calia: I�m wet�
Crytos: Ah� Ooh� Eee� Dammit.
Morpheus: Hey! No cursing in Trilanna� It�s the land of all that is beautiful.
Crytos: (emerging from the bush) And I�m sure you�d be saying that if you had landed in a thorn bush� (pulls out a thorn) Ouch!
Calia: Ick� There�s a frog in my shoe�
Morpheus: Where�s Patrick?
Patrick: Ugh� I think I�m going to be sick� Can someone help me?
Crytos: (pulls out another thorn) Oww!

Nar.: Morpheus looked up and looked for Patrick. Patrick was thrown over a branch that was about one hundred feet in the air. Around Morpheus, Crytos kept pulling out thorns and yelling, and Calia was muttering under her breath as she walked behind a bush and began stripping.

Morpheus: Don�t worry Patrick. We�ll have you down in a�

Nar.: A loud shriek, interrupted Morpheus�s thoughts, and he turned toward where it came from.

Calia: Shoo�! Get away from me!

Nar.: Calia jumped out from behind the bush, followed by a curious armadillo.

Morpheus: Oh� Come on� Leave it alone Calia� And put some clothes on.
Calia: Huh?

Nar.: Calia looked down and cursed under her breath. She looked up at her three companions. Morpheus was smiling and shaking his head, Patrick was staring at her with wide eyes, and Crytos was still pulling out thorns and cursing, oblivious to the whole situation. Calia gave a yelp and melted into a puddle of goo. She reemerged dressed in shorts and a t-shirt.

Calia: Uh� Right� I�m dry now. (She gave them a sheepish smile.) Oops?
Morpheus: As I was saying� We�ll get you down in a minute Patrick.
Patrick: Uh� Right� Please hurry.
Crytos: Ouch. Thank god that that was the last one. I don�t think I should move for a while though.

Nar.: For Crytos�s health, they made camp there for the night. The sun set and the stars came out, sparkling like diamonds on black velvet. Crytos and Patrick went to bed, but Calia and Morpheus stayed up by the campfire.

Calia: It�s so pretty� You have three moons?
Morpheus: Well.. There are four� but you normally can�t see the fourth one. It�s known as the Blue Mist Moon. There are many cult followings for it, like the Mist Hawks, Blue Falcons, and the Gnomes of the Blue Ether�
Calia: Gnomes of the Blue Ether? But� Isn�t that the plane that Crytos is from?
Morpheus: Well, legend has it that the leaders of the Gnomes of the Blue Ether left and went to the Blue Mist Moon on enchanted sugar gliders. They started their own colony there and the Blue Mist Moon became its own plane.
Calia: But it�s still a moon here?
Morpheus: Well, you can only see it when it gets too close to Trilanna. Look!

Nar.: Morpheus pointed up at the sky where a blue mass had suddenly appeared.
Morpheus: There it is!
Calia: Is there any way to get there?
Morpheus: Only by transporter.
Calia: Hmmm�
Morpheus: What?
Calia: I�m suddenly wishing we had gone to see that seer at the Disnea Woods�
Morpheus: Why?
Calia: I want to know what the future holds for a creature like me�
Morpheus: (laughs) I can tell you that one�
Calia: Really?
Morpheus: Sure� Why not? Give me your hand.

Nar.: Calia held out her hand to Morpheus. He took it and looked at her palm for a while. After a few minutes, a smile crossed his face.

Morpheus: According to your hand, you will become supreme ruler of the universe and will be second to no one� except, well, me� �cause I�ll be your god� Calia: Riiiight� me a lowly little changeling, will become supreme ruler of the universe? I think not.
Morpheus: Hey, stranger things have happened.
Calia: Like what?
Morpheus: Well, the creation of the Blue Ether for example� or perhaps the creation of the Underworld.
Calia: The Underworld?
Morpheus: Of course, there�s a legend that says it just appeared one day from a nebulous black cloud in space. At the center of the cloud was one man, who willed the Underworld to appear.
Calia: But those are just legends�
Morpheus: But do you know whether they�re actually true or not? Didn�t think so. Very few people that were around back then are still alive.
Calia: Maybe I�ll pay them a visit someday, but for now, bedtime. Good night Morpheus.
Morpheus: Night, Calia.

Nar.: Calia curled up in her magical sleeping bag and drifted off to sleep. Morpheus sat by the fire for a few hours, and then drifted off to sleep.

Nar.: Thunder crackles and lightning flew across the sky in bright flashes as John, Votor, Luna, and Sho trudged on. It seemed like they had been walking for miles, and there was still no sign of life.

Votor: What is this? We�ve been walking or miles and there�s no sign of life!
John: The narrator just said that�
Votor: Oh.
Luna: I don�t like this place, and I�m tired. Let�s go look for a cave or something to rest in.
Votor: Good idea� There�s one!

Nar.: Votor walked towards an opening in a stone wall. As soon as he disappeared inside, a bright flash of light came out of the cave�s opening.

John: Votor!

Nar.: The three companions ran into the cave and were blinded instantly.

Nar.: Daltran and Arden sat against the wall of the dungeon. Daltran was amusing himself with a piece of string from his robe, while Arden was trying to think of a way to escape.

Arden: Daltran, stop playing with that piece of string and help me figure out how to get out of here.
Daltran: How about the door?
Arden: No� That�d be too easy�

Nar.: Arden got up and looked outside of their cell. There were three guards, Dukesita, Animal, and Maverick. They were three girls who used to be kitchen hands to a woman named Acca. They were moved because they had dropped too many pots of boiling water on guests, and they somehow made it to the dungeon as guards. He leaned against the door to get a better look at what they were doing, but the door swung open and he fell to the floor.

Daltran: See, I told you.

Nar.: Daltran got up and walked out of the cell, stepping over Arden.

Daltran: I�ll see you later. I�m going to go see if the cook has any turkey legs I can have. Ta ta.

Nar.: Daltran walked out of the room before Arden could say anything. Arden got up and shook his head. He followed Daltran out of the door. The three girls looked at them and then each other.

Maverick: Think we should go after them?
Animal: Nah�
Dukesita: Nope, too much work.

Nar.: So, the three girls went back to putting on their makeup.
