Echo started to blush as she found her gaff was noticed. She buried her face in her hands, and so the words she repeated to Ness were muffled and unintelligible.

"But I'm not a 'Kaka'! I don't even know what that is!" Good Lord, it's like talking to a brick wall. A brick wall that wants to rape me. Jessica impatiently replied to Tao.
She replied to Savranth without looking at him, "Changed my mind. It's worth a shot. If I didn't bother with long-shots I'd have just completely given up on going to the Wild Lands at this point."
She stood up and addressed Felina, "Check please!"

Ness looks down at Echo and giggles a bit. "You're so cute when you're flustered, Echo. Now what is it?"

"Indeed, he was hardly the most pleasant of men." Loki remarked, turning towards Rita. "But there is little that can be done about it. While you could still report this to the Legaian government, you too would likely be arrested for taking the money."
[hr]
"Why, thank you. This was eight credits, just so you know." Felina said to Dal'Sheed after taking his card, sticking it in the reader and giving it back to him, then turned to Ness. "Alright. You had a drink and a salad, if I remember correctly. And for her?" she said, pointing towards Echo when asking if she wanted anything. Hearing Jessica ask for the check Felina turned to her. "Alright, that would be eleven credits. Your card, please."

"Put 4 credits on there for tip."

He slightly moved his spoon across the table, 'writing', in D'ni, the word for peace "shorah" with the water drops. He made a small smile.

"I really hope so. Our race wasn't always like this. There was a time for our renaissance came about and there was a burst of thinking. I think the future could go either way. In collapse, or prosperity." His attitude lightened a bit, but it only slightly showed through his tone of voice. "Thank you. It seems a lot of us have a lot in common in our history. Prejudice, conflict, war, defiance, technology. It feels good to have such common ground."

"Can't be that dumb..."
Savranth looks at Dal'Sheen and the fact that he was shaking. "Is that so? And what is your opinion so far?"
He chuckled a bit at Jessica. "You change your mind quickly."

OoC: Gonna grab a shower.

"Kaka's are cat people. You're a cat person, so you're a Kaka, meow." Tao explained to Jess after finishing half of her fish. She suddenly had an idea of how to make things better between her and Jess. "Want some, meow?" she offered what remained of her fish dish, though it pained her to do so.

Echo didn't remove her face from her hands. She just shook her head and let her response be muffled again.

Rex leans back into the chair and puts his hands behind his head. "Yeah. Always nice to be able to relate with people. Makes life a lot easier too."

[hr]

Ness scratches the back of her neck slightly as she sees Echo's reaction. She turns up to Felina and shrugs slightly. "I guess she'll have the same dish as well."

He took some more bites out of his stew. He patted Rex on the back before answering Savranth.

"I want to help this world as much as I can. If I can't help put this world in a stable position before time's up, then I have to return the book to the author. Then he'll most likely make changes to the description of the world. And that will be the last you'll see of me. Since once the description of the world is edited, the place the book takes you to will be different. It's most likely he'll edit it. There's numerous mistakes and faults that would not make this an ideal text for learners. For one, the magical phenomena must have been a mistake as we have no idea how to describe it in text. It may have been a typo from a contradictory sentence in the descriptive book. For two, there are people coming in from worlds that aren't native to this one. That already is a huge thumbs down, since the D'ni don't want worlds with too much interdimensional interference. For three, the war factor is questionable considering the purpose of the book. However since the purpose of the book was to analyze the effects of a civilization against a planet and vise versa, the wars may have been a planned effect. But I don't like that. It's unsettling."

"Either we return to Fourside and find a hotel, or we head west to investigate that temple. Although it would be best of we did the latter another day, as the hours grows late." Loki answered Rita.
[hr]
"And four for the tip." Taking Dal'Sheed's card again, she transfers four credits to her own account, then gave him back the card once more. "And thank you for the tip." Turning to Ness, Felina nodded, "Okay. I'll get right to that." she said while waiting for Jessica to hand over her card.

Ness hands Felina her card. "It'll 14 right? Since I forgot to tip last time... You can take 12 as a tip."

She looks down in concern once she notices Echo is crying. She leans down to whisper again. "What happened, Echo?" I screwed up again!?

[hr]

Rex smirks a bit toward the waitress before handing his card to her as well. "I'll pay for me and the kitty right now."

Jessica rifled through her coat pockets for a bit and produced her credit card, then handed it to Felina. "Here you are. Go ahead and take 16 credits, for the tip and all."

She glanced over at Savranth with a smirk and said, "Of course I do. That's how I'm good at my job."

Maybe they both just mean the same thing? "Why does your culture have two words for the same thing? Why does the term 'cat person' exist when you already have the word Kaka? Seems redundant." She curiously asked Tao. "And no, I already ate."

"Agreed." said Rita, still thinking about that sphere Hmm, that was pretty anticlimactic... I wonder...

"Uh...Tao didn't make the words, meow..." Tao said as things started to go over her head. She quickly took the fish back and ate it.

"[sub]What happened...[/sub]" Echo replied in a small, helpless voice. She also gave a shrug that matched her tone.

"Sorry, but I'm going to have to assume that you have some other meaning than I think you do. I am no fan f the idea that there is some God playing games with my people. Or that there are things in this world as a result of a mistake. Besides, I don't believe in God. Some do, but I'm not much for it. And that's a common sentiment in Legaia, as well." Savranth replied to Dal'Sheen.

He looks to Jessica. "I don't think you told me your job."

[hr]

Geo was at home working on his nanites and trying to figure out the best tests for them.

"To Fourside then." Loki remarked as he began walking back towards the city. "Now that you have plentiful money, perhaps you ought reconsidder not purchasing some new garments." he reamarked as he walked. Although he kept a straight face, he felt a sense of amusement, as he knew mentioning her clothing would likely get a rise out of Rita.
[hr]
"Oh my. You're all too kind." Felina commented upon hearing both Jessica and Ness offered a tip. Since she was preparing to leave, Felina first took Jessica's card and detracted the price of the food, then transfered the 16 credits to her own accout. "Have a nice day." she said with a smile as she gave the card back, then turned to Ness and took her card. "Yup. 14 it is." After detracting the money and transfering the tip, Felina gave the card back and turned to Rex. "That'll be 12 credits for the salmon. Would you like another refill, or shall I add the cst of the drinks to your bill?"

"We're not gods in anyway. We're not making, shaping, or changing worlds. According to our understanding there are an infinite amount of universes. A description in a book would lead to one universe out of the infinite. Making a description in a book is not easy, even when the idea of the world the author wants is clear in his or her head. It takes a lot of time and patience, and most importantly practice. Once the description is changed in the book, it would lead to an entirely new world. It doesn't change anything for the original world, it just leads to a different world. Same thing goes for destroying the book. If I set fire to the book that leads to this world, nothing would happen to this world. It would only mean that nothing from D'ni would come here again."

He pulls out his linking book to D'ni.

"This is what I'm referring to. The book has a description in it of a world. On the front page is a panel that allows you to travel to the world that's described in the book. You place your hand on the panel and you're there. The only caution is that it's a one way gate, and that you'd best be wary of people that follow."
