I was just ‘bout to stand up, when those words stunned me back to the ground. I glared at the floating blob with cloth-tassel arms with curiosity and complete confusion.
“Who? That king or prince or whatever called Alex? Or the knight that was probs escorting that guy? Or who else could ya’ be talking about?” I asked, heaving myself back up.
“No... not a Flamekin, but Supreme Celestial...” Ulroman responded, shifting around the top of its blobby body.
“A whaaaa-?”
“Oh? What is the term you use for those Celestials then? The ones with speed incomparable, physical abilities of the strongest mortal imaginable and not the subtlest difference of the hair to the eye, even amongst the hundreds of their kind?”
“I never heard of any ones like that. Ya’ must be crazy.”
“But all of the Kiklono Dorokdaurk had participated in the Celestial-mortal interaction. So there must be those of their kin somewhere! Think, child!”
“Hmm... maybe ya’ were talking about the ancestors to the people in that there southern country, Starbor.” I muttered after a moment’s thinking time.
“And do you perchance know what you call them or personally know any?” Ulroman floated closer; I backed away just as far.
“If ya’ talking about the name of Celestial they descended from, nah. But I do know one of those Starborians, ya’ see.” I said riiight before yawning.
“And his name?” came the voices, edging closer again.
“What makes ya’ think I’m talking ‘bout a guy!? But yeah, I am. Not gonna tell ya’ who, though, ‘cause you’ll just cause trouble, won’tcha?”
