Yep! Even though we share a border, our countries don't have very close relations... so I wanna change that! And giving the queen some useful information about a common enemy might make her willing to trust us more!
Although... everyone always talks about the Queen of Zephilia like she's this really incredible person... like she's really beautiful and wise and she might actually be related to a god!?
[help. insecurity week is starting to kick in.]
What if she's mad that we haven't sent a delegate in a really long time...
If she's wise, she'd have to realize that it really wasn't up to you before. Like, she can be mad at the previous rulers, but that shouldn't stop her from doing what's right now, especially when you're there as soon as you could be.
[I think everyone did....... then it suddenly came back after an 18-year hiatus]
Okay, one sec... [She tries some stuff with a headset... and then hands it to Alex!
When she puts it on, she'll appear to be standing in a large plaza in a medieval city. At the centre is an impressive-looking statue of a dragon.
Ahead is an ornate staircase made of polished white augite, leading to the massive archway of a great temple. And opposite that... is an enormous palace, with banners depicting a royal emblem hanging from the ramparts.]
[ alex puts the headset on! and then the first thing she does is, like... laugh? because she is delighted by this. there are not really palaces where she's from. ]
They're not just good -- they're holy beings! The Flare Dragon is the greatest one of all, and the god of our world!
[she doesn't sound too bothered at the misconception, though. she's just really happy to spread the good word about her lord and saviour dragonguy.]
I guess there are different kinds of dragons, though. Gold dragons are kind of in between gods and mortals... they're wise and benevolent, and can use powerful holy magic!
But there are some lesser dragons that are closer to feral beasts... maybe that's more like what you've read about?
Kind of crazy that there are so many different kinds, though. Like—how do you deal with a "feral beast" that's the same kind of creature as your god?
It was one of those adventures where I could never really tell my dad the whole story, because he'd probably freak out if he knew how much trouble I got into in the first place...

I'd been away from home for a while before all of this started, too, so it's really nice to be able to see it again...

Right?

[it's ok it will probably take kanzaka another 20 years to decide how this arc goes.]
-- Oh! [She seems to remember the VR machines!] Is there any place that you'd like to see, Alex?
no subject
I don't know. I almost feel like seeing a fake version of home might make me... more homesick, you know?
no subject
Oh... I hadn't thought of that.
Well, do you want to see something else, then?
no subject
Yeah, let me see somewhere cool from your world. Wherever's fine.

He seemed really serious at first... but he's actually really nice, and he even saved my life!
