Part 650: Robin C

Zzzzzz...

(Is that Tiki? Looks like she's asleep; I better keep my voice down. What is she thing anyway, taking a nap out here?)

Phzzzzzzth...

(She's going to catch her death of cold. If only I had a cloak to put over her...)

Zzzzzzzzz...

(When she's all curled up asleep like that, she almost looks like a normal human girl.)

Zzzzzz... Oh, Bantu... This is... the first time... I've ever seen a town... Zzzzzz... Thank you...

(Ah, listen to that. She's talking in her sleep. Dreaming about ancient times, no doubt. Hmm. I wonder how old she is, exactly. Thousands of years at least, if she remembers the age of legends...)

Zzzzzz... That is... a secret... Zzzzzzzzz...

(Did she just answer me in her sleep? ... Heh. No. A coincidence, surely. But there's an easy way to make sure... Tiki, where did you used to live?)

Zzz... Long ago, I lived with a great mage... in a secret, hidden house... Then I was laid down to sleep... in the temple of the ice dragon...

(Gracious, I do believe she's actually answering my questions! Hmm. It's odd how little we actually know about our friend Tiki here. This might be a golden opportunity to find out more...)

Zzzzzz... *snort*

(Heh heh, this should be VERY interesting indeed...)

Zzzzzz... I sense... danger... Zzzzzzzzzzzz...
