"So, it's possible that you are the same overall species. Good." Theresa seems relieved. You almost correct her, but recall that the Oracle tends to list things in species and subspecies. Loren doesn't have any memories of [wyrms] so it's possible that the Oracle just has in complete information? Or Theresa might be mixing things up. It could be any number of things that are causing this, but you'll need to decide if you want to claim to be this species or not. You're also half human, so it may be able to sense your blood line from there... depending on how the damned thing does inheritance, as it may not grant you anything.

Still, everyone you've talked to seem to be absolutely certain that powerful species and bloodlines are valuable to the Oracle, and you certainly have that covered, assuming you're willing to make a donation of some kind. Loren has memories of donating some, as well as Theresa doing the same thing, as the Oracle seems to be following the developments of the Bright bloodline quite closely. Loren does recall that the Oracle has a similar deal with other nations, but the Oracle wouldn't divulge what was being studied or how.

Theresa is waiting on you to make a decision on how you want to play this, so that all of you can present a united front.

Shrugging, "I don't know... it depends heavily on what the Oracle does, and what kind of vibe I get from her. I just don't know how she'll react, so I don't know how to gauge her as a threat yet, so as of now, I am assuming the worst."

Theresa twitches slightly at your refusal to make a plan. "Well, we'll roll with whatever Talren decides then." She says, dismissing everyone to go about their business. You have a variety of options until you arrive at the Oracle. You could spend time with one of the numerous women you know around you, or you could simply find something to kill time until the ship arrives at the Oracle.

"Look, you actually met the Oracle, but I haven't, and only have vagaries that Loren can give me... That's not enough to form a plan with," I point out.

With us dismissed, I decide now is a good time to talk with Miki and Gabby.

If you don't have anything planned for Miki and Gabby, then we can just say they talked for a bit, but I do want to chat with the elves before we move on.

Miki does answer, and seems to be in a good mood. She mostly just chats with you in a friendly manner. Gabby, on the other hand, seems mildly upset with you. Apparently, you got her and her sister pregnant. She's having a not so fun time explaining that to her family that she was, in fact, using contraceptives.

Finishing up talking to them, you manage to find the two elvish women and they're quietly discussing something in elvish. You can decide how you want to greet them.

The conversation with Miki goes pleasantly, but Gabby... I apologize and ask her if it would help if I spoke with her family.

I walk on over to them, and bowing slightly at them, "Greetings, our meeting earlier was a bit curt before, so I thought to more formally introduce myself. I am Talren Blackhorn, currently a guest of Queen Loren, and I fear I imposed myself on her to organize a meeting between me and the Oracle, and as such, imposing myself onto you two as well. I must apologize for any inconvenience my presence may cause."

"Damn straight you will. And dress nice!" She tells you, and it seems she's a bit nervous as well.

One of the elves curtsies, the other bows at the waist to you, although Loren's memories aren't good enough to tell you if that means anything. "Not at all Sir Blackhorn, we do not have much to offer and we expect our trip to be short. I am glad that Queen Theresa could find some use out of our scheduled meeting with the Oracle. I have heard rumors of you though, is it true you can rival an Amazon in power?"

"Please, Talren is sufficient... I lack any standing worthy of being graced with such a title," I give a nervous chuckle, "I must admit, I do not fancy the fact that rumors of me have spread so far in such a short time. It is true though that I did best Judith in a series of duels... Three to two."

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Btw, as you might have noticed, Talren isn't talking as he normally does, because he's relying on Loren's knowledge of etiquette. Of course this means that the elves will probably recognize the etiquette as that of the Bright family or at least that kingdom, and since he is suppose to be a recently arrived outsider... That might make an interesting occurrence.

"I would hardly say that we had to go far to find rumors of you, it appears many warriors of Theresa's navy witnessed your actions and have been discussing it. Our ears are not just for show." Azalea covers her mouth with a single hand coquettishly and gives a polite giggle. "I must admit, that you have a good grasp of the language of the local courts, it took me far too long to learn the vagaries that the Brights seem to prefer. How did you meet Theresa?" You notice that Azalea is doing most of the talking, but bits of Loren's memories indicate that's normal until she trusts you more.

Buying a bit of time as you frame your thoughts, you notice something new, a glint of silver running along Chris' aforementioned ears. You spot the telltale liquid silver appearance of a High Elf transition, which Loren recalls was similar to the nature of Valkyrized Amazons, but different in subtle ways. It seems that Lorens death has spurned more than just Theresa to build up arms and abilities. How much is another story.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

I think I'm going to have Azalea be the more friendly, but actually a bit conniving, one. Chris is going to be a bit more taciturn, but honest. Seem like a good mix? Also, I'm having Azalea try to pump Talren for information, for the same reason Admiral Sharktits did. The elves are a close ally of the Brights, but that doesn't mean they're above poaching some talent.

Also, I'm making it a 'thing' that the Oracle has various upgrade packages that she can sell, the Valkyrie being the most well known. It does similar things for everyone, a boost to mana gathering strength and it can double as an interface with complex tools. Humans tend toward full bodied suits, hence the 'wings', but elves tend to use something closer to a crown. This package tends to be pretty pricey though, so the Amazons are the only ones that tend to use it on a regular basis. I haven't decided on any other names/locations for the other races yet. I don't expect Talren to want one because his last interaction with liquid metal was... caustic.

"What did you ask Vicky?" I chuckle softly as I shake my head, "Besides, why are you asking how I met her? I feel that your ears are long enough where you would already know." That elf scholar lady was here, and there is a very good chance that she'd talk to the princesses of the her homelands, maybe omitting the detail about trying to summon Loren back, but certainly about having met me, which would require her to explain that I was accidentally teleported into the kingdom.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Totally cool. And as far as they know, he is unassociated, so that seems fair enough.

Well, one thing is that it could be limitations of the specific biology. Certain upgrades are just incompatible with certain races so the specific offerings have to be 'tailored' to species. Something I can think of as an interesting that maybe 'High Elves' aren't as powerful as Valkyries, when it comes to crystal magic, but with Talren's family coming and bringing their form of magic, the High Elves turn out to be far better attuned to that kind, to sort of keep with their image of being more traditional 'mages' then technomages.

As for Talren... he's going to try and do a... direct interface with magical equipment, where they essentially become an extension of his natural magical field. Basically, what I'm thinking is an extension of what he was doing to the gauntlet, where he affects the magic output directly with his own magic.

Also, I'm going to have Talren accidentally dropping a clue about his identity here... As he hasn't 'met' Victoria yet, but he still knows her even by her nickname Vicky. Now they may not realize there is anything strange immediately, as hey, this person is associated with the Royal family, and it's not like Loren was the only one to call Victoria Vicky, so they may not realize anything, but considering they obviously have some internal connections, they

"Oh, there's another source of information Chris, we must investigate. It seems our scaly friend here is too timid to discuss his past." Azalea continues to prod you. Well, it seems that the distasteful elf woman did not go and spew your secrets to her fellow. These two are noble elves, Loren recalls that much, but the elf woman is a stranger. She worked on resurrecting you, which implies a certain level of life magic mastery, which while favored by the elves, is not their preference. They tended to prefer... what was it, continuous effects and such? Her way of speaking was also very different, callous and curt, rather than the joyful or mischievous aspect you'd expect.

She smiles as you ask about talking to Vicky, but seems to notice something and file it away. Did you say something? "But you must tell us about your adventures!" She says, grabbing you by the bicep and giving it a squeeze, "Oh, my Chris, come feel this!" She says running her hands up and down your arms.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

I think I'm going to have her push a bit.

Sure, I was planning on various racial biases toward specific magics. I was thinking elves would favor continuous enchantments and altering active effects of magic, ie: where the magic is sent somewhere in a bundle to act the way that Talren's ice shield does and such. They were also going to have better control and senses than humans. Also, there's more than one level of modification, Valkyrization is a 'full body' upgrade that makes Amazons considerably more powerful. Even without magic, an Amazon is an peak athlete that can fight above her weight class. After, she's edging past the limits of what a human can actually do physically, on top of her enhanced magical abilities. There's just a few dozen of them per generation most of the time.

That's what I was thinking, hence why I didn't think he'd want nanotech upgrades.

I'm having her file it away for later dredging.

I raise my eyebrow at her comment... They don't know? Wasn't that elf woman part of the elven kingdom? They had the opportunity to talk with her considering I did see her before we left... Well, regardless, if this is the way we go, "Come now... Everyone knows the most interesting kind of strangers are the dark mysterious kind... can't be giving away all my secrets on our first meeting, would just ruin everyone's fun." I ignore their touchy feely hands... It's hardly the first time, so I'll let them do what they want.

Azalea continues to poke at you, but seeing your lack of response gives you a pout before laying off it. "You're hardly the dark and mysterious type. The black scales help, but the blonde hair and pale skin don't lend themselves to skulking in the shadows. I think you'd look much better on my arm than hiding in the background." Well, she's forward.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

I'm assuming from this point forward, that if you don't explicitly mention that he's hiding his scales and such, that he's leaving them out.

Also, conceptual question on shape shifting abilities: do drow count as elves or do they count as their own species? For that matter, do beastkin like Miki count as their own species?

"Well... that's why elves are known for their ears not their eyes," I tease, "You'd be very surprised at how good I am skulking in the shadows... Or intertwined with beautiful women."

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Very well.

I'd wager they both count as their own species... Hell an argument could be made each different type of beastkin(Catfolk, Dogfolk, ect) count as their own different species, since it clearly isn't 'the ability to interbreed' as that is pretty... wide in this world. So it'd basically be any selection of traits that can't mix with Porne's simplified breeding mechanics, trademarked.

The knowing smile returns as it actually spreads to her eyes this time at your flirting responses. "Already attempting to bring me into a harem, sir Blackhorn? I will have you know that I am much more difficult than simply offering me a pretty face and firm arm to hang onto." She's inviting you to play further, which you have time for, assuming you don't have any more plans for the time between now and when you arrive at the Oracle. She's noble enough that she likely would not respond well to a serious attempt at her virginity, but there are other options if you desire something fun in between then and now and you're smooth enough.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

It varies. I generally have elves and drow be different enough that they each count, but something like the difference between, say, forest and plains elves isn't. I've also used beastkin as hybrids of humans and ferals, or independent. Usually, I have the beastkin trait be dominant, but the actual beast is variable and doesn't mix within a beastkin mix (ie: a cat and dog will produce a cat or dog, not a hybrid, but an elf/kin mix will produce a child with ears that straddle the lines and might be fuzzy).

"Come now, let a man dream," I retort with a small grin, before baiting the hook, "After all, what is a man to do when he's alone in the world if not dream?" If she wants to know about me then she'll have to play along.

Not necessarily. I wouldn't object but he's playing with her, and more he was trying to get them to bite on the tid bits he's purposefully leaving. I.E. 'alone in the world.' Considering they don't know anything about him, he hoped they'll get hooked by that in their pursuit of something on him. But now he's trying to get a feel for their personality by poking them a bit.

"Oh, certainly not. I would rather fully enjoy you than to send such an ill omen." She continues the game you two have shared. Catching a glimpse of Chris, she's watching the two of you, but has mostly stepped back with an introspective look on her face. Azalea is still smirking and giggling at the poetic jokes the two of you are making.
