Hmm... I bet I'll have to write my ideas up sooner or later.

The glukk brought me to a place. I didn't listen to him speaking since I got bored with it after a while. But as soon as he left my senses returned to me. What was I actually doing there? Where was Tammer and Gaia? I almost desperatly looked around. I had lost them all. Tammer, Gaia and Orion. And I was lost too. I stood there thinking. I didn't even know what to do. So I decided to explore the place a little. It was a place filled with steamy tuber in the roof and empty barrels at some places. Some of them wasn't totally empty, those were inhabited by flies. It was a very nice place that glukk put me on.
A very nice place.

After several minutes I noticed that I talked to myself again. I talked about my future. Right in that moment I would be glad to know that I had a future. There, I couldn't stand it. I left the stupid place and explored the hall outside. I continued on to the next hall and through the next door and so on. I didn't bring a single thought to anything except 'What's this?' and 'Where could this be going?'. It might sound childish, but I found it fun. Fun to run around in a strange building trying to find my friends. And I found them. I was just about to cross a corner when I heard voices. I stopped just in time to avoid being seen. Full with new curiosity, I listened to their conversation.
"I don't think that a reasonable price for those." a dark voice said, probably a mudokon.
I carefully leaned my head out to take a look. I saw a mudokon, a slig and another much smaller slig. The mudokon and the first slig were probably discussing something about the smaller slig. Then, they found me.
"You, over there!" the slig called. I merely jumped a bit.
"Yes sir?" I quickly replied.
"Get yourself out here. I want a opinion." he said. I took a deep breath and went out to them. The young slig looked at me, mostly frightened.
"Yes sir?" I said again.
"Is this little fellow worth 50 moolah?" the mudokon said and pulled the small sligs arm a bit. He took a step forward. I looked on the small, weak thing.
"No." I said. "I think he's worth a extra coin or two."
Then I just walked past them and into a open door.
I couldn't help to notice that the young slig seemed a bit happier than before as the mudokon gave the slig some coins.
