Cyan saw that she wasn't home when she came out
of the blue swirly thing. Strychnine ran ahaid of her and started waving
his arms enthousiasticly in the air. He had found something. Cyan
quickly hurried across the swampbridge and saw a nice garden. She
plucked some carrots from the ground and gave some to Strychnine. He
looked a bit pale. He should eat. Strychnine attacked the carrots and
devoured them in seconds...eagerly looking around to find more food. As
he strolled through some nice flowers an angry voice called out: "etn
foo grndl!" Strychnine stopped and watched the pink creature come near.
The creature rearranged her flowers and came to Cyan, looking angry.
Cyan had heared about ettins, but had never seen one. The ettin female
stood there waiting. Cyan saw her look at her hands, she looked down and
saw the carrots. She felt sorry she had took the carrots, but she hadn't
known they weren't from the hand. She tried to explain this to the ettin
when Strychnine launched a sad cry and fell to the ground. Cyan screamed
for the hand hoping it would come and help her. The ettin tilted her
head and laughed, reassuring Cyan help was on the way. Only seconds
later a strange looking hand came around, hovered above Strychnine and
made him better. Cyan smiled at the ettin, thanking her. The ettin
pointed to herself and said "Me etn
Andalousa" and asked them to follow
her. She told them she was send here by the Shee to rescue what had been
left behind after the vulcano had erupted. She had found some survivers
and had shown them how to survive without the hand. The mechanical hand,
a tool made by the Shee of the ship helping her.
They reached the current
living quarters
and saw some babies playing. Andalousa was very proud of them, they were
the first to be born after the eruption, and they were healthy. They
were busy playing with complex
toys, apparantly made by the ettin
standing alongside them. Andalousa looked lovingly up and held her belly
while she said: "Andreas exmly helpful".
They stayed for several days, Cyan helped with
the babies, while Strychnine, well, Strychnine played games. Until the
day Cyan saw the blue whirly thingie Andalousa called a portal again and
they left. Andalousa had said the portal looked like it was going to the
Spaceship. One portal was opened every month until the two ettins would
choose to go back to the ship and leave Albia to evolve on his own.
