You find yourself murmuring,
'Mokka, the Egyptan...'
What? What did you say? Perhaps that is what is waiting for
you. But an Egyptan? What is that? Some kind of mythical creature, you suppose. But, no. This time, it's real.
You feel a deep ache, almost an urge to find out where this
surfaced from. You glance around the heated desert and sigh. Is there no way to find its home? Maybe...
You spy a sign, dug into the ground. It seems to flash a message,
and you read it with interest. Perhaps you should follow...
But wait, what was that movement over the hill? Excited to
find out what it was, you begin to scramble over the sand dunes, and find yourself in the presence of a pinky - white creature.
This must be Mokka, the desert glass Egyptan.
Strange... A stream can be heard now - where did that come
from?
From behind Mokka, steps a small, fox-like creature. It's
tail waggles nervously, and you admire it's red markings. Beautiful.
"Hello," the creature begins. You smile and introduce yourself.
The creature nods.
"My name is Plassie," she says. It is obvious it is a 'she',
she is just so pretty! "I'm a fox! What are you doing here?"
You explain you are a traveller, and Plassie laughs.
"Have you met Shivuez yet?"
You reply no... Should you have done?"
"Of course! She is the owner of the Clouds, it would be rude
not to..."
You apologise. You don't want to seem rude.
"Oh... don't worry, most people don't bother... They want
to see us, not her! Anyway... do you want to know where I came from?"
You nod vigorously.
