Is this the first confirmation that the Obsidian Egg is a real thing?
Sure looks like it! And if it’s been kept in a different realm all this time, no wonder Team Elektra came back empty-handed!
The degree to which the snacks are distracting the council lends to the idea that they will renew Shaleigh’s endowment for continued study of this realm’s subjects… and more importantly, access to its condiments. A part of me feels like the scientific implications of all this are taking a back seat, even as we the readers are perking up at the Obsidian Egg reveal – and the implication of how long Shaleigh’s academic pursuits have been messing with the ‘war’ realm. Render himself was also stolen wasn’t he, an egg that went missing? So much about this whole hearing/presentation really makes me wonder what gives ‘this’ realm the right to mess with everyone else – someone gave them a gift of freaky portal hub laundry? Almost makes me want to see some karmic comeuppance… allergens in the ranch dip? >.>
Should Shaleigh have gone with the Thousand Island instead?
Explaining that it’s not a literal “Thousand Islands” might have distracted from their enjoyment… so Shaleigh probably made the right choice of snack for her bribe!
It makes me wonder what tech/magic level Shaleigh’s realm, if these kinds of processed foods aren’t available. Draconia Lane (aka Onyx Realm) looks to be a ‘modern’ setting with a vague assumption of all that ‘modern’ means by the reader’s standards – up to and including similar foods.
If Draconia Lane is ‘similar’ to Shaleigh’s realm, how do they differ (beyond snacks); i.e. did getting inter-realm travel come with a horrible cost for their world or something? … and now my mind associates that question with how brokenhearted Zmia was at getting her endowment revoked. Uh oh.
so is render gaias son I can see the brown eyes the resemblance of the genetics
Maybe we’ll find out exactly who his parents are one day. For now, he’s got a team of surrogate moms looking after him!
The concentration on the condiments is concerning.
Anyway Shaleigh slides into her presentation with practiced precision stating snippets of the realms residents to her examiner’s obtuse observations. In any case the Obsidian Egg is likely the overarching reason for our protagonists predicament. But how is the egg triumphing over the timeline? Have we cracked the case?
I need some seasoning right now… Let’s fry this egg.
Do you think this’ll be over easy or are things just getting increasingly scrambled?
Hmm, I don’t understand as much as I would like, but I get the gist of it. Continue.
If you’ve got questions, I can try to answer them in as spoiler-free a way as I can. ^__^
Thanks, but I’ll peace it together as I read on. I am enjoying it.
Ah so it is real…!
Yup! Draconia Lane is totally canon!
I meant the Egg. I was almost certain that Shaleigh made it up.
“And how do you suppose the Obsidian Egg has any effect on these phenomena?”
Shaleigh: “Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey…stuff!”
