To All

[a_better_man]

I have a query for the masses, if you'll take a moment or two and indulge me.

Tell me about animals from your world. Or your favorite of the animals from your world. Or the most interesting. I'm curious. Friends in the Horizon have shown me critters I've never even heard of before, and even been kind enough to create one or two for my domain. And I want more. I want a vast menagerie of amazing creatures.

I've got plenty of animals I know well - foxes, badgers, rabbits, sheep - and some I don't think exist outside of this world that I've seen in Thorne. But so many of all you fine and lovely people come from amazing and vastly different worlds and I would be honored by a contribution to my little project.

Of which there is to be more than just a showcase of odd animals, and I will share with all when it's finished. But for right now...

It's all about the animals.

No that would be cruel to even a magically constructed creature, and an ocean would be rude to neighbors to say the least. I do have a pond, maybe a little sort of thing for the pond. About the size of an oilfish, they're only a few feet long.

Oh I intend to! It's a whole little patch of creation that I can fashion as I want, and I want to fill it with wonders.

You should make it a koi pond. They're really pretty.

And here I must admit my ignorance again.

Your world is full of things that are a mystery to me, it seems.

But I love a good mystery.

You said you already have the pond, right? I can come by tomorrow and make it for you. I don't think a description can really get across what a koi pond should be, at least not without knowing what koi are.

I do! A pond and a little lake, but the little lake surrounds my 'house'. There's some ducks and otters in there already.

I'd be honored to entertain you in my domain!

[ He's still getting a mogwai. But she'll get rid of the gremlin for him tomorrow -- she somewhat doubts that, in the panic of seeing the change, he'll have the thought process necessary to simply think it away.

You're welcome, Mat. ]
