Hrua barked with a deep voice, then ran in circles, chasing it's own tail.

Athena smiled and finished her dinner. "So, what do you guys want to do?"

"I'm probably gonna stay up all night, and argue with Jarred over the physics of my boat, and discuss the name of it"

((ok))
"Interesting way to spend your free time. I'll probably play solitaire or something to pass the time. I don't sleep very often."

Hrua nudged her foot with its snout, and barked. "I think he likes you"

Athena smiled. "I'm just glad we got over the shyness. How big do you think Hrua going to get?" She grabbed her last peach and gave it to Hrua.

"Of all the Hagamorns I have seen, Hrua is the smallest, I think it's a runt of the herd. It might grow to the size of a house, maybe" Hrua nibbled the peach in it with gusto.

Athena's eyes widened. "That's HUGE. Also, how do you know all this stuff? You can identify practically anything we come across."

"I have lived in this world for 63 years, I have seen alot of things, I have seen dragons burning down cities, Hagamorns flying over the ground when it was whole, those Himblas weren't the first that I have seen. Corrine and Arianna are young and from cities, and you are young and haven't experienced much of the world"

Athena smirked. "That's funny. Actually, although I look like I'm 20, I'm more like 58. Elf immortality is amazing isn't it? Too bad I lost my Elfness after the crack. But my ears are still slightly pointed."

"Wait, You were alive before the world cracked, Which side were you on? The Teraliance "The Good Guys" or the Hands of Gods "The Bad Guys"?"

Athena's smile dropped. "I wasn't on either side. I was a paid assassin. I could turn invisible and control people. Instead of choosing a side, I tried to make money off the war. I was a coward." Her face filled with regret.

"I was with the Hands Of God, a bunch of over religious zealots." Hector rubbed a spot on his neck, scrabing off the gray paint, revealing a hand with an eye on the palm. "They had this picture of a "perfect world" were state officials were on top of the power. France and Australia were the two lead contries of the hands, so I was locked on their side. At the time I thought I was doing the right thing, providing food and protection for my wife and our unborn child"

"What happened to your family?"

"I don't know, I was taken prisoner to serve for my crimes, then the crack happened, and I haven't heard from seen her since. I don't even know if my child survived this mad world" A tear fell from Hectors eye.

"If it were a girl, we would call it Herna, a boy, Himma"

"That's so sad. Is that why you have this ship? so you can find your family?"

"Kinda, first it was to get shelter, then I discovered that it was an old air boat, and the day all of you came by, was the day I was going on its first trip out of the trash"

"Oh. Hey, what about Hetlerald's continent finder? If it works, we could go to where you used to live. As long as they haven't moved, that will give you an exact answer of what happened to your family." Athena sugested.
