*Phoenixflame smiled warmly at Callimpsest and Robin as they joined the table, then turned to the the others*
"May I also present Callimpsest, who was the librarian at the school, and Robin, whom I believe you may possibly know, Robin and Callimpsest, this is Professor Julian Lapis, and Professor Edward Kenji, from, where did you say you were from?"
*Morwena landed lightly on Phoenixflame's shoulder, and perched there elegantly, surveying the group in front of them*

'Reality on the Norm university' said Kenji, after taking a healthy sip from the brandy. 'Thanks mate, for a feather duster you're all right!' he smirked at Morwena.
'Sorry we didn't come over earlier, we felt a keeping of the now legendary low profile was in order. We're still reeling from what's just happened. Nice job on the roof by the way,' Julian said to Callimpsest.
'Dare I ask, but is this sort of thing common occurence around here? Flying cats and showdowns with anthropomorthised dragons and things of that nature?'

You're welcome. It was about time I made myself useful, and I even managed to create some kind of bound cereal concoction, now the gastric property of Malark, as a result of my spellcasting. I suppose it's only reasonable for one to try for a low profile when one can, since the Fates of this realm have an inclement habit of sharply raising it when least expected.
In a world where questing is everything to some, it would be nice to believe that bizarre or dangerous mishaps only befall those who go looking for them. Alas, that's not the case, is it? *Callimpsest casts glances at his fellow drinkers.*

"Sadly what my freind Callimpseast says is all to true."
*Zeytan concurse.*
"This realm seems to have a perculiar sence of hummor."

*Morwena looks askance at Kenji, then turns to Phoenixflame and starts talking rapidly into her ear, Phoenixflame is trying to follow what Callimpsest is saying, and also listen to Morwena*
"No, Mor, you can't do that, it's rude!" She whispers fiercely to her "Not to mention it's quite probably banned! Sorry about the roof, I think I might have had a hand in that! You've done a wonderful job though! Definately not the case I'm afraid, strange things just love to happen here! No Mor, you can't do that either! And no, I'm not turning him into a small lizard either!"

'Jules, the talking bird is plotting something.'
'One can only imagine what. Probably planning on nicking your drink.'
'I really don't think that's it-'
'Well, lets say it is. The alternatives are too disturbing to think about. Well, I'd like to think we didn't ask to be deposited here,' said Julian, turning his attention back to the group, 'but I have a sneaking suspiscion our presence here is not something we can chalk up to mere chance. Sadly we are not strangers to encounters of the bizarre and curious. In fact, I must confess we make something of a vocation out of the subject.'

*Morwena looked coldly at Kenji, then murmured something into Phoenixflame's ear, Kenji could just make out the word Egypt, and 1000*
"Mor, that would be very messy if you did that, did you want some wine, it might calm you down a bit!"
*Phoenixflame turned to Julian with a mischievous smile*
"So what you;re actually saying is, you sort of go looking for trouble?"

'Well, not so much as go out LOOKING, per se,' countered Kenji. 'But there are certain things we take rather an interest in. Certain unexplained phenomena, mysterious happenings, the possibility of travelling between different realms, the machinations of the Great Old On-'
'I hardly think our company needs to hear about them,' said Julian, quickly cutting Kenji off. 'But we do make something of a habit of sticking our noses in places where they generally don't belong. It primarily stems from a purely detached academic interest, but in certain cases we've been forced to take a more... active role in events. As we've unfortunatly proven once again today.'

*Phoenixflame smiled ruefully, not noticing that Julian had cut Kenji off*
"And I admit, I'm grateful that you decided to take an active role this time! I suppose it must be interesting, studying them, and I know what you mean about sticking noses, or should I say beaks, in places where they don;t belong" *Phoenixflame looks hard at Morwena as she says this*

"The Alzan Wars, The diffrent speices and races of this realm, The possible and practical use of Techno magic in everyday life and the fight for good."
"A vast number of subjects i've investigated reserched...one day i'll hopefully get some of them published once again...publisheres tend to be a shirty lot. There not that forgiveing when youy've retierd once and then try to restart your career again."

"Indeed it is my forest warnden freind."
*Turns back to Kenji & Julian*
"So tell me how are you finding this realm so far??"

*A purring sound seems to be emerging from thin air, at Meliss' feet.*

*Notices the noise and starts feeling around for the source of it - when she feels the soft fur under her hands she smiles as she realises there's an invisible animal sitting there. She speaks to it in a soft voice* "Hello there...whatever you are. Can you reveal yourself to me? Are you a Cheshire cat perhaps?" *Slowly the animal starts to appear, face first. It is indeed a Cheshire cat, Meliss recognises the pinkish-purple stripes on its body and tail. When the cat is fully visible, it gets up, stretches and leaps onto Meliss' lap. She strokes the cat and it turns its face up to her, revealing an expression like that of a smile. Meliss then speaks to no-one in particular* "We seem to have a visitor. Does anyone recognise this fine animal?" *The cat decides to then leap onto the table, as if on cue* [OOC: Note - the cat is an NPC so anyone can control its actions ]
