[So, after a hard morning of adventuring, our heroes are having a much needed rest back at the inns with their prizes. Some people may be busily chatting over the different robot parts that were found scattered across the city, but the turtles have bigger fish to fry.

Literally.

The kitchen of the Sword, Shield, and Spear is a flurry of activity and delicious smells in between Rapunzel flitting about and Mikey and Raph following after her to give basic instructions. The construction of pizza is an art after all.]

It's real easy! I mean—I don't get the dough, but the important thing to remember is dough, sauce, toppings. The dough's just to hold everything else together.

I did not think you of Midgard. Your ears look nearer the shape of the Ljósálfar.

[Peering around to get better look at them.]

[overclocking]

[Leans back a bit, suddenly uneasy]

Midgard? L- ... What?

[direstnews]

Earth, as you name it. The light elves make their homes elsewhere.

[overclocking]

... I've never heard of any light elves before.

You're making it sound like you're not from Earth, though.

[direstnews]

I hail from Asgardia, the realm eternal.

Which, by virtue of being above fair Broxton of Oklahoma, is technically, I suppose, upon Midgard.

[overclocking]

[Pppping]

--Above Oklahoma? How?

[direstnews]

In much the same manner as clouds and birds.

[overclocking]

Well, yes, I gathered that much...

I was thinking more technically than that.

[direstnews]

It was the doing of my brother; of this I've been told. The manner in which it was accomplished, however, I've not learned.

[overclocking]

Your brother... put a kingdom in the sky?

[direstnews]

They'd not have it upon the land.

[overclocking]

[May have concluded that you're from a family of extremely powerful but overly eccentric wizards with too much time on their hands.]

I'd be lying if I said I'm not impressed.

[direstnews]

[He would be laughing his ass off right now if only he knew.]

He's capable of a great many things. Most often, putting cities to wing is not among them.

[overclocking]

"Most often..."

What is this city in the sky like, if you don't mind my asking?

[direstnews]

A place of great beauty, when it stands unmarred. From its streets, the lights of the world tree can be seen to fill the sky.

[This is the part where I don't say anything about the people in it. :)b]

[overclocking]

[That is legit. Honestly, he'd do the same if asked the same question.]

Light of the world tree?

[direstnews]

Yggdrasil.

[overclocking]

Is that the source of your world's Astral? ... Is it literally a tree?

[direstnews]

It is a tree indeed, though a tree like no other.

And if we've Astral to have a source, I've not heard of it.
