[Guy appears on the second level, holding a notepad and a pen. He looks a little wary, but at the same time, he's smiling.]

We've been noticing that a lot of people here are from different worlds--well, I guess that much is pretty obvious-- but what we don't know is which worlds these are. The names of places, the history behind them, what kind of

I'm not really from the Template in my world, but it's a desert city. ... It's not even a city... I guess you would really call it more of a pretty large town.

[justtheservant]

A large town... [Looking around.] Well, if that's the case, I guess it means there's not much of a limit to how different they get.

[2yoraedragon]

I didn't spend a lot of time there... just enough to get information about sandflier parts.

But... anything else you wanted to know about my world?

[justtheservant]

There was one thing I was wondering. You mentioned only being there for a short time, but did anything out of the ordinary happen while you were there?

[2yoraedragon]

In Template itself? ... No, Template was actually one of the least unusual places I visited. Though we were chased down by Imperial troops there.

[justtheservant]

I'm sorry to hear that. [Looks thoughtful again.] But it does mean that not every version of Template is as unusual as this one.

[2yoraedragon]

Sorry for what? They would have come after us, anyway. [Seems rather unconcerned by this. |D ]

Yeah. Template just seemed to be your average town. Unless you count connections to the black market "unusual".

[justtheservant]

The black market?

[2yoraedragon]

Well, sandflier parts weren't something people advertised freely. They cost a lot of money.

[justtheservant]

So your world had a lot of secret communities, huh? Then again, I doubt there are many worlds without some sort of black market...

[2yoraedragon]

... Not a lot, more like the black market and... then the scientists for the Empire. I think that's it. Unless you count the faeries, but they live in a different realm than most people.

[justtheservant]

That's right, I never even thought of asking about different species. And you mentioned there being an Empire?

[2yoraedragon]

Besides people who look like... most of those in this Template, there's a bunch of others who look sort of like animals, or other things. And also the Endless.

Yeah. The eastern continent has... well, the Eastern Kingdoms, and the western continent is mostly controlled by the Fou Empire, which was founded by the god-emperor Fou-Lu.

[justtheservant]

The "Endless"? [Looks curious.]

Uh, just a second... [Writes this down.] And you said it was called the Fou Empire?

[2yoraedragon]

Yeah. Dragons. They're from another realm, and they're basically gods.

That's right. Fou-Lu was an Endless... or half of one, anyway.

[justtheservant]

[Seems interested, writing this down.] Half of one?
