Sitting tight. Eddie and I will spread out around a choke-point, allowing for overlapping fields of fire.

In time, a pair of Kidians walk into your field of fire, both of them looking quite surprised to see Eddie. Initiative is yours.

I'm going to speak in Dragonese, with my K-4 ready. "Hi. I work for High Lord Mxyzptlk, under Lord Splynn'crth. Who do you work for?"

By ready I'm going to assume not aimed at them?

Either way...

"Drop the weapon, human. This is a restricted area!" The larger of the two orders as they both move to gain position on you.

Oh, no, quite aimed at one of them; Eddie's aimed at the other.

I shoot in front of one as he moves forward. "Now, now. I've introduced myself and my lord. Fair's fair."

The blast takes the advancing guard in the shoulder, spinning him around. ((Is Eddie actually shooting? I'll update second part based on that answer))

Whoops, that was a weird bit of word reversal on my part. I just expect the worst of you!

"Surrender my ass. However, I'll stand down if you'll stand down; this is something I want to learn more about."

(Downside to having an alien intelligence backing you... you get a bit cocky.)

The two seem willing to agree to the concept. Though one mumbles into his collar. Either he's insane, or he's calling for someone to join them.

I sling my gun on my shoulder (not that I'm unarmed... just not as visibily armed). "Come on, Eddie. Let's see what's up."

(Do the symbols on the pyramid now look kinda Kydian, given that I know there are Kydians around?)

Nothing Kydian is jumping out of you. Eddie Lets you know that a party of three is incoming, one of which is positively pouring with magical energy.

"Thanks, Eddie." I've got my FF up, but otherwise, I'm lookin' chill.

The party of three arrives, and the thing pouring magical energy turns out to be a fairly intricately marked rune statue of a wolf, flanked by two humanoids whose race is obscured by their heavy body armor. The wolf seems to be sizing you up for a few seconds, before it begins to speak in magically perfected dragonese. "So you're what the Rift spat out, today?"

"Seems so. I'm Lucas. High Lord Mxyzptlk, under Lord Splynn'crth. This is Eddie. And you are?"

"You may call me Zavista. Come with me. I'm not one for hallway conversations." The wolf and his bodyguards turn and begin to walk away.

As you both move through the pyramid, you get a chance to observe the occupants. The slave stock seems to consist entirely of dark skinned humans, with hardly a D-Bee to be seen. As far as Splugorth minions, Overlords and Powerlords are the order of the day. You've so far not seen a drop of Kittani, either their technology or their actual race. This entire set-up is far more reliant on magic. In fact, as you've got up a number of levels, you come to something that definitely makes you think Elementals or Stone Mages. The pyramid is actually two separate chunks of design, the upper half floating a hundred feet above the lower half. There are discs of magical energy that serve as lifts, rising and lowering people from half to half.

Once you've reached open air, you get a chance to stop and look out on the city surrounding the pyramid. There are three ley lines that intersect into a primary nexus, which this pyramid is built on. However, there are six smaller pyramids built at the borders of the city, serving as check points atop the ley lines themselves.

As you've been walking, Zavista has been prodding you for info about where you come from.

I'll be a bit circumspect... I'll spend a chunk of time describing Center in Phase World.

I'm definitely intrigued; I'll answer honestly. "Are you suggesting that the red rifts might be rifts in time?"
