Short summary of the last chapter:
Spoiler :
Voice pledged to help ShortDwarf in order to save his own life. He modified Heather into a Blood Slime. He changed his DIVE room a bit, and learned he could secretly get outside information from it. He also met a peculiar man that sold seeds.
Also, let me know if anything is wrong with the chapter! Be sure to comment!
And if you like a character that gets up in the chapter let me know! I can add them to later chapters if they are popular enough. Although I might add them later anyway!
The man in the odd lab coat waited for me to follow him behind the counter. “Alright you have to find my secret room. The trick is, you can only go into one room.”
“Excuse me,” I interrupted him. “It’s not nice to trick people like that.”
He squinted at me. “What do you mean? Are you calling me a liar!?” He started getting visibly angry.
I sighed and left the store. He followed me, curious as to what I was doing. I opened up a hole in the ground beside one room of his store. I made the hole about six and a half feet, and jumped into it. I signaled for him to follow me.
Obviously intrigued he did. He was a little clumsy, but he managed to lower himself down. I closed the hole off, and made a tunnel about three feet long. The tunnel opened up exactly where I thought it would.
In front of me was a ladder leading downwards. After climbing down it for about twenty five seconds I arrived at the bottom. It was dark, but I gently blew on the wall behind me. All along that wall bright red flowers started to glow.
They went down for about ten feet; every flower lit the one next to it. When they came across the next wall, it too lit up. The entire wall was lit in a deep, yet bright, red. It was huge. It was basically a twenty foot wide, and a hundred feet long. There were large glass orbs that held miniature ecosystems on each side. Each orb was filled to the brim with different types of plants, and had some crane looking thing extracting seeds.
There were two large frosty bins on the back wall, that looked a lot like what Susan had. These tanks had pictures correlating to seeds instead of potions.
You have discovered: Dr. Falcon Andreas’ Seed Breeding Lab. For being the first player to ever step foot in this secret area you are granted 125 fame.
For being the only player able to use this place you will be able to modify seeds at an additional 15% potency while in Dr. Falcon Andreas’ Seed Breeding Lab.
Dr. Falcon blanched. “What!? There is no way you could find this place! How in the name of all the Elder Gods could you know about its existence!?” After a moment more of shouting, something seemed to dawn on him.
People, even NPCs are so dumb sometimes. It was obvious I had been to somewhere similar beforehand, or at least studied about him a bit. It wasn’t all that impressive.
“You cheated didn’t you!? DIDN’T YOU!?” He grabbed onto my chainmail armor, and robe. I added metal mana to my hand, and grabbed his. I made sure to add enough power to make a few bones crack.
He screamed and released me. I quickly healed his hand, but not before giving him an angry look. “You made a bet with me. I won it. I would like my book now.” I was getting sick and tired of constantly being treated as weak in this game.

I had enough power to crush any number of relatively powerful people. If I had time to set up, I could even kill ShortDwarf.
Falcon scowled at me. “FINE! Take your fucking book! It doesn’t matter anyway!” He smirked slightly. “You can only read it in here, but when you leave I won’t allow you entrance anymore!” He looked cocky. I hated when people underestimated me.
He angrily took a book out of his inventory. My compendium was already halfway through the Complete Summoning Book. If I could stall this guy, I wouldn’t need to come here again. Once my Compendium decoded something, I could use the knowledge whenever.
I took the book, and my Compendium automatically consumed it. I had to think of a way to get him to let me stay here for a while.
“I don’t like to be touched.” I scowled back at him. “You could have just asked how I knew where your ridiculous lab was.” I headed for the ladder, but not fast enough to actually get there in a timely manner.
“WAIT!” He called out to me. I stifled a smile as I turned around. “So how did you know then?” I sent a quick glance to my emotional reader. He was 75% curious, and 10% worried.
“Ahah. That’s not how you ask.” I shook my head as if I was a school teacher. I needed at least ten more minutes before the summoning book was complete. “Try asking a bit more nicely.”
His face twitched for a second, before he adopted an apologetic pose. He was 60% curious, and 15% annoyed. “*Ahem* Would you please tell me how you knew of my lab’s location? I had it built of a secret design of a friend of mine. She disappeared many years ago. No one has heard of her since. There is no way you could have known. No one has managed to find it since.”
I smiled. “That’s the proper way to ask. How about this. I’ll trade you questions. You can ask me one, and I’ll ask you one. I’ll go first though.” He sighed, but nodded.
“What is the purpose of all this? What I mean is: what does all of this equipment do?” I waved my hand in a general way.
His eyes started to sparkle. He cleared his throat, and adopted a more sophisticated appearance. “Well, my good sir, you have asked a VERY good question. To answer it I have to tell you a bit about myself. You see I am a scientist. Although technically my class says I’m an ‘Evolutionary Breeder’. ANYWAY! What I do is breed plants and animals, and modify them to be better. Right now I am working on finding a way to improve the ingredients of ale.
If I could make it so the ingredients no longer become addicting think of all the advancements dwarves might make! Some people, dwarves included, become so dependent on different forms of alcohol, that they cannot function without it.
If I modified the basic plants that go into the ale, then I could modify how those that drink it react to it.” He smiled after he gave his little speech.
I looked at him, with a slightly tilted head. “That’s really cool and all,” He nodded excitedly, “but that doesn’t answer my question.”
He made an :O face. “Well these orbs are here to grow the seeds into plants so I can analyze, modify, and breed them.”
I nodded happily. “That IS interesting. Now it’s your turn to ask a question.” He looked confused for a moment, before he remembered that we were trading questions.

“Ok, can my question be about anything?”
I nodded. “It can be about anything I can answer. That counted though.” He made a sad face, but signaled for me to ask mine.
“What do you get out of modifying the plants and animals?”
He looked at me for a second with a blank expression. “Well, I don’t really get anything. It just feels right to do. Why shouldn’t bears be able to breath under water, why shouldn’t fish be able to fly over land? Who decided those things? No those weren’t my questions.” He almost glared at me for a second.
“I just enjoy it I suppose. Although I studied undead for a bit. That would be interesting to be able to test out some theories on them. But sadly I can’t.” I looked at him, baiting him to continue without using a question.
“You see, undead are the sole province of Davros. I’ve made a vow to never work with him again. Not after he tried to use me for his own gain!” He was getting angry, so I decided that was enough answers from him for now.
“Alright, well it’s your turn to ask a question.”
“How did you know about where my lab was?” He was obviously anticipating my answer. I was tempted to lie to him just to see his reaction, but if I did I couldn’t expect him to be honest either.
I pretended to take my time to think of the answer. “I met someone with an identical shop. That person showed me their lab.”
“Wait who was it!?” He breathed a little bit heavily.
“Sorry it’s my turn for a question.” He obviously knew Susan from somewhere, but that wasn’t my problem. I had to keep him here long enough for my compendium to finish going through his book.
“Well two questions each is fair. I am willing to keep going, but I’d at least like a place to sit down. Standing up for this long is really hurting my feet.” I rubbed one of my feet for emphasis. “I could also go for something to drink, maybe a bite to eat.”
He angrily sighed, but went up the ladder. While he was gone I went about looking at his experiments. Some of the plants had very odd nature mana flowing through them.
I guess he somehow manipulates the nature mana within the plants to grow them in a different way. That’s interesting. I wonder if I could try something like that.
I took out my seed pouch. There were faint traces of nature mana flowing through each of them. I used the Green Healing Herb seed, mostly because I was most familiar with it.
I focused on the flows of natural mana within one of the seeds. I knew which ones were more powerful, by sensing the potency of each seed.
I looked for the similarities and differences between the most powerful and weakest ones. After looking at each individual seed for about a minute, I noticed two patterns.
The first pattern was the number of veins within a seed. The more powerful ones tended to have more branches for the nature mana to flow through. The more veins the seed had, the more powerful it generally was.
The second pattern was the average ‘current’ of the veins. The current was determined by the amount of power flowing through the vein, divided by the diameter of the vein. The larger the current was, the more powerful the seed was.
The most three powerful seeds had those things in common. They had many mana veins for the nature mana, and had high amount of ‘current’ flowing through each vein. I decided to try an experiment on some of the less powerful seeds, since Dr. Falcon still wasn’t back.
I went through manually, and increased the flow of nature mana coursing through the veins. I didn’t just add a chunk of nature mana to the seed. I actually added in a small flow of mana from the ‘central point’, where the mana seemed to gather. From the point the mana circulated through the seed, before arriving back at the point.
I steadily increased the amount of mana. The first two seeds actually popped from the excessive amount of mana coursing through them. At least now I can tell the general stopping area.
I wasn’t put off by that at all. In fact, I was somewhat happy. It felt good to be increasing what would eventually go into my healing potions. Learning new things about the seeds could only benefit the overall potion making.
I saw a few dozen sheets of paper lying one a table, so I grabbed them and began recording my findings. I was surprised to see the compendium consume the paper like a starving dog. As soon as the paper was in the compendium I began to write. Or tried to.
The compendium was already writing down my notes on the seeds! Man I was really happy that creepy guy tried to start shit in Rand. If he didn’t I wouldn’t even have the compendium. I made sure to note the time to see how long the experiment took. I knew that I got lost in my experiments sometimes.
After the first two seeds I was a bit more cautious in the amount of mana I added in at a time. I was growing frustrated. It was harder to added only a little mana, than it was to create the fucking stone houses!
It did take less time though. Whenever I began to get angry, I meditated. Anger had its place, but the research room was not it.
When I managed to finally grasp pushing in only a tiny trickle of mana, I smiled. It felt almost ticklish to pour out such a small amount. Oddly enough it took up as much mana as a big spell would.
I guess there is a midway point somewhere. Focusing too narrowly, or broadly, on a spell causes an increase in the cost. So micro spells cost as much as macro spells? That’s interesting. That might just be for the Force Mage sub-classes though.
I continued to refine the seeds while mulling over the conceptualized uses of mana. After a few more seeds I made a major discovery! The seeds had a maximum ‘limit’ to how much nature mana you could put in. The limit was directly determined by how large the veins were.
Obviously I started to increase the size of the veins after that. I also increased the amount, and length of the veins. The veins also had a cap in diameter and length, there was also a limit on how many veins I could make. That was determined by the initial size of the veins, while the number of veins was determined by the current amount of nature mana flowing through the seed, and the size of the seed itself.
I took an untouched seed to practice with. I started by pumping in nature mana. After putting in a safe amount, I used the mana to increase the amount, and diameter, of the veins. I put in more nature mana, and repeated the entire process. I continued until increasing the diameter of the veins would cause the seed to pop.
I was pretty happy with the result. I looked at the new and improved Green Healing Herb seed.
You have maximized the potential of this Green Healing Herb seed. This seed will grow into the most powerful Green Healing Herb it can, given its planting location and the amount of care it receives.
The changes made in this seed will be inherited by its offspring at 1% potency.
Gaia smiles upon your love of her creations. Gaia has granted you 20 Nature Affinity, and increased her blessing towards you.
Many Blessings of Gaia (Major)
For showing your love of nature to Gaia you have been gifted with her blessing.
You will naturally produce pheromones. You can currently release:
Territorial Pheromone
Reproductive Pheromone
Trail Pheromone
When used, Territorial Pheromones will indicate to others of your species that this area is yours. Others of your species will be alerted to who the territory belongs to. If they wish harm to you they will suffer (minor) psychological impairments.
When used, Reproductive Pheromones will indicate to those that mate with your sex your wish to copulate. This pheromone will grant favor with the those that mate with your sex. (only useful to other humanoids). Those affected by this will be more likely to grant you favor.
When used, Trail Pheromones will show others of your species the path you took. The trail evaporates after 1 minute. The trail can be picked up by any sentient species with a high smelling capability.
Cool! An upgrade to the blessing?
I looked over the new pheromone I could use. Honestly speaking I never really had a good chance to use any of them, but more was always better. I would love if I did manage to find a good time to use them, but now I was alone.
The only beings that stayed beside me where forced to. EDI was the main damage dealer, she split. Ancestor was the info house, he decided to leave. Now all I had was a bunch of cheap ass fairies.
I looked up after reading the notice.
“Hi there.” I jumped when I suddenly noticed Dr. Falcon in front of me. There was a table, two chairs, and a spread of food on the table. He smiled as he ate a muffin. “I didn’t want to disturb your work. You looked like you were really into it.”
I knew I could kind of zone out while working on something, but that was too much! How the hell did I not notice a fucking table and chairs being brought down a ladder!?
I mean seriously! I needed a way to somehow pay attention to my surroundings while I studied things. Ancestor used to do that too. I quickly realized how dependent on others I had become.
Without my group I felt basically powerless. I had specialized myself so much, that I didn’t have a choice but to be in a group. Without them I was useless.
Dr. Falcon spoke while eating, “Well, I believe it’s my question now. Who exactly did you meet that had an identical shop to mine, besides me?”
I liked how I made him choose his words carefully. It was always better to have your opponents overly wary of you. That way any mistakes you make force them to question whether or not it was intentional.
“An alchemist by the name of Susan. Perhaps… you’ve… hear-“ I was stopped by the look on his face. He was astonished, and disbelieving. He licked his lips, as if he were about to speak, but nothing came out. He tried again.
Wow this guy is a fucking nerd. Holy shiiiiiit! Come on already! I knew if I rushed him I wouldn’t get the best result, but that didn’t mean I thought he could take that much time. Honestly speaking I wasn’t sure it was even worth it to let his stupid ass process the info.
He finally managed to form words after a few more attempts. He was seriously getting on my nerves.
“So, uh. Can you describe what she looks like?”
“Yes. But now I’ve answered two questions in a row. My turn for two questions. First question: How the fuck did you get all this stuff down here without me noticing!?”
He didn’t even give his answer much thought. He was obviously still concerned with Susan’s description. “I have a high sneak ability from catching my own animals to enhance.”
That was a short answer. Guess he really wants to know about her. Well, the book has already started to be decoded, so I guess all I need are a few more long questions. Maybe I’ll answer his question in detail…
“What is your exact relationship to the Susan you think might be the one I know?”
His expectant face drooped. He looked at the ground, and started frowning. His shoulders hunched slightly, and he adopted an overall look of depression.
“You see, if it is the same person her name used to be Summer. Her village was attacked by a poisonous plant a long while ago. All of her family and friends were killed. She alone survived. She somehow persevered through that though. I don’t know a lot about her time alone, but I do know that she sold potions in exchange for food to travelers.
Eventually a few people decided to stay in the village with her, instead of continuing their journeys. My parents where in that group. My mom was pregnant with me, but didn’t know it, while they were traveling. It was a surprise when her belly go big, or so I was told.”
His eyes were getting watery. “Summer always took good care of me. She even showed me her secret lab! She built it herself. I remodeled this store after the house she used to live in.
So please, tell me if you know her.”
Tears were streaming down his face. Wow this guy has attachment issues. He’s just 1s and 0s. What the hell is wrong with this game?
If he was a real person I still wouldn’t have felt bad. Some girl was nice to him, and he now he is pining after her? What a fucking pussy.
I patted him on the shoulder to show him that I ‘cared’. “Alright, alright. Her name is Susan…” I went into depth while describing her. I described her looks, her personality, even some habits I noticed she had. All in all I summed her up in about ten minutes.
I didn’t know if his seed book was done by then, but it was fun to mess around with him. After I thoroughly told him about what I knew about Susan, I sighed loud enough for him to hear.
I mumbled. My voice was barely audible, “It’s too bad about what happened to her…” I of course meant the time she was almost raped. I had stopped it, but Dr. Birdy here wouldn’t know that.
Just as I thought he would, he became somewhat frantic. “WHAT!? What happened to her!?” He grabbed my shoulder in alarm. “TELL ME!”
I had to do my best to hold back a laugh. This guy was way too serious. He was like an annoying insect. I was quickly losing interest in messing with him.
“Well, she was almost raped and killed several times in the few weeks since I’ve known her. Her work has been destroyed, she was almost killed by an evil god, a demon tried attacking her, a weird rich guy came to threaten her, a huge muscle man almost beat the shit out of her… the list keeps going on. I’ve only known her for about a month too!”
Of course the demon and rich guy were the ones that almost raped and killed her, and the muscle man was just the rich guys body guard, but still. If I made it seem like different occurrences I thought it might get a rile out of Dr. Falcon.
It seemed to work. My list drove him to a frantic state. My compendium had only decoded about a quarter of the book on plants.
His breathing heavy, he started begging me. “Please! I’ll give you whatever you want in my shop! Just tell me how to reach her!”
“Fine, but you have to do me a favor.” His eyes lit up realizing I was going to tell him how to get to Susan.
“Anything!”
I almost felt bad for tricking this guy. Almost. “Alright, you have to give me all of your research notes. All of them.”
I smiled at his look of utter confusion.
“You seem to be doing some interesting research. I think I’d be able to benefit from it. I have this ability to force things to evolve. I would be very interested in seeing the required specifications for evolving something a certain way.”
He was nodding even before I had finished the second sentence. He took a large book out of his inventory. By large I mean huge. It was easily bigger than a thousand pages, that wouldn’t really account for the massive amount of research he seemed to have done though. “Here. This is all of my recorded data on all of the experiments I’ve done up until now.”
He looked eagerly at me. I rolled my eyes, but held up my end of the bargain. The way he said it made it seem as if most of his research was kept mentally. This book wouldn’t be as good as I had hoped for, but knowledge is its own reward.
I created maps out of two tablets in my inventory. One was the way to Rand, the other was a city map that showed where Susan’s shop was. It took only a matter of seconds to do. Of course the maps were rough, but he couldn’t expect better. I took the tablets out of my inventory.
“Here. These two will lead you to her.” I gently tossed him the maps. He fumbled as he caught them. It was comedic to see him almost drop one of his precious maps. While he was fumbling around, I added his book to my compendium.
The other book was about halfway completed. It was taking much longer than I liked. I saw Dr. Falcon putting many of the overly large bio dome orbs into his inventory. It was pretty weird to see such a large object being easily put into his pockets.
He began speaking to me while he put everything in his inventory up. “You can take whatever you want from upstairs. I won’t be able to fit it anyway. The dwarves will just start a bidding war over it once I’m gone.
I owe a few of them money. Heh. Oh well.” He looked around nervously, as if to make sure no dwarves were in here.
“You can have any of those seeds. They did not fulfill my requirements for breeding. I was just going to sell them, but I want to leave today. Any of the books are up for grab as well. Although I only have a couple. Still you might like them.”
He had finished packing. He gave me a salute. Weird ass science guy. “I hope to meet you again one day.” With that he climbed the ladder.
I shrugged. I guess I’ll just wait down here until I finish decoding the first book. After deciding that, I began to browse through his notes.
Most of it was on animals. He had studied the way they hunt, or how they avoid predators. He watched their everyday lives. He seemed to keep a journal, and made notes about why they evolved the way they did.
Most of the space on the sides of the pages were crammed with ways to improve the animals. It almost seemed like the obsessive journal of a teenager that had a celebrity crush. A few notes were crossed out, and said failed.
My only guess was that he actually experimented on the poor animals. Anytime he realized he couldn’t do a certain thing to the animal, it seemed he would cross out the idea. Beside the crossed out ideas were several similar ideas circling the crossed one.
The book listed many animals, and a few plants. It seemed like his interest in modifying plants was somewhat new. The plants took up a small portion of the back of the book.
Mostly the book told about the plants’ naturally occurring defenses, and how they could be improved. It also had a small block for plants involved in the making of dwarven ale. It seemed like he studied whatever caught his interest in that moment.
After I was done reading every part of the book, I got a notice.
You have read all written records of Dr. Falcon Andreas’s research. You have gained 5 intelligence.
After reading the notes I checked on the status of seed book Dr. Falcon gave me. It was still only at 65%. I needed something to keep me occupied for at least another half hour for it to complete.
I went up the ladder, and ransacked the store. I took every seed, book, and general item that was displayed there. Although there was only two books.
It was probably worth a nice bit. There was even enough ingredients to make a few dozen barrels of the dwarven ale.
!!!
Wait a second…
One would receive items automatically from their pet, unless they disabled the feature. I wondered if I could also send items to my pet.
I went downstairs, and opened up the pet interface. After scrolling through it for a few seconds, I found the button marked inventory. I tried putting the ale ingredients in her inventory.
I smiled once I realized it worked! This was way to good! Didn’t this make merchants op? I guess not many merchants would have their pets stay long distances away from them.
I sent a message to Heather, and told her to give the goods to Elizabeth. She would probably be able to use it to make ale. Even if she didn’t I didn’t pay for it anyway. It was no big loss for me.
After sending Heather the message, I started examining the seeds I obtained. They were basically all to do with growing plants used in dwarven alcohol or dwarven cooking. They were all the same dozen or so types of seeds, but there were several hundreds of them.
I kept the best few of each one, and experimented on the rest. The experimentation was mostly successful. I tried infusing some different types of mana. It was interesting to see that infusing the seeds with mana other than nature mana, made the end result change dramatically.
Different amounts of mana types gave different effects, and too much of mana other than nature mana caused the seeds to be destroyed. The amount of non-nature mana needed to destroy the seeds was minuscule.
After a bit more experimenting I realized it wasn’t the amount of mana, but the ratio of mana that really mattered. If I kept increasing the nature mana, I could also increase the other types of mana that flowed into them. I could only add about 1% different mana to 99% nature mana.
After increasing the number and size of the mana pathways to the max, I noticed I could put quite a bit more different mana types into the seeds.
Water mana made the plant that would grow more flexible. Fire mana would decrease the needed amount of nutrients the plant needed. Light mana made the plant grow faster. Wind mana apparently increased the final size of the plant. Earth increased the durability of the plant. Metal gave the plants small barbs. If I infused darkness mana into the seed, the plant would cause a small aversion in animals towards the plant.
I didn’t know why anyone would want to put barbs on harvesting plants, but I decided to trade this info to Dr. Falcon if I ever met him again. I could probably get something good out of it.
After experimenting, and giving several seeds to Heather to do what she wanted with, I looked over the seed book. It had completed, so I went out of the room to see if it stayed completed.
I could still get its info, so I guessed it was readable through my compendium at any time. I also noted that the first other book I got from here was done, and the second was at 80%.
After the second book was done, I’d have put in 25 different books into my compendium. I had hopes that something interesting would happen at the ¼ mark of the Compendium Evolution. Usually things like that went in increments.
It did seem that my compendium was downloading the books at a much quicker rate. While I let it finish the last book, I took a glance at the summoning book. I looked over how to summon a metal fairy. The process was actually quite simple.
I decided to try it out on my own. The worst-case scenario was I failed and had to get it summoned. I looked over the required materials for the summoning. I needed iron wiring to make the circle. I could easily replicate the weird ore lump picture.
I went into the metal part of the city. I still had several hours before I had to meet ShortDwarf. I quickly located a smithy. I asked the dwarf if I could buy a yard of iron wire. Surprisingly it only cost me 5 copper.
After buying it, I ventured back to Dr. Falcon’s shop to perform the ceremony. I went down the ladder to perform the summoning. I created the summoning ‘circle’ just as the book described. After adding in a bit of my blood, and 500 mana the wiring began to glow.
The wire frame seemed to fill in its interior. An impossible amount of metal began flowing from the wires. After only a moment the wire frame became a flat iron sheet in the shape of an ore deposit.
Soon the sheet of metal crumpled into itself, forming a small perfectly smooth orb of metal. The orb began to bubble and shape itself as I added in my mana. The orb shaped itself into a roughly humanoid appearance.
When the metal began looking noticeably human, it shook itself. Many metal flakes and chips flew off of its skin, revealing a perfectly smooth metal child. The child looked identical to the larger golems it resembled, except for its small stature.
The metal flakes around the room began circling the golem, and eventually landed on him. As soon as they did, the golem’s ‘skin’ absorbed them. I looked over the golem’s stats. They were much the same as Eli’s but had high strength and agility.
The child-sized robot look-a-like stared at me without peaking. It adopted a pose like it was going to attack me. I was slightly taken by surprise when it attacked me.
My brows knit together, and a frown escaped my face. I caught the thing by making the metal mana in its body stop. Obviously the metal mana in the fairy wasn’t enough to completely stop him, but it helped.
I managed to lift it up, and toss it to the side. As it stood back up, I looked at the notification I got.
You have summoned your first fairy completely on your own! You gain 50 fame for being the first player to learn how to summon fairies without assistance. You gain 5 wisdom and intelligence for learning the secrets of Fairy summoning.
With the bonus to my intelligence my mana affinity ranked up! I could rank up my Magical mastery to Adept now!
John Smith, the Metal God, has rewarded you for summoning your metal fairy without aid. You have been granted 25 Metal Affinity.

Notice: Please note, that Soletus, aka main character is asexual. That is part of being a neth elf. This story delves into information about it neth and gets into the neth elf experience a few times in this story. You've been warned. Also note: As much as I didn't want to put it in this story, avoiding it was a futile effort on my part. There were things I needed to explain about Soletus and it's hard to write personal tales about character when avoiding talking about certain personal aspects of them. Story Two: The Sun and Stars - Summary and Date TBA
