Chapter 19 The dinner!
Meanwhile in the temple of the sligs Kluna, Zin, and Silak were enjoying dinner with their new friends. When Kleek announced to everybody to bow down for Chun the great slig know it all was comeing to join them.
"Sligs of the Alpha, bow down for our king comes."
Then as everybody bowed down, trumpets sounded and the great Chun came in from behind a great curtain of silk. Chun was a very different looking slig. He was 20 ft tall and his long mouth tenticals were small and short. Chun was not the color of yellow like the other sligs were. For he had the colors blue and green to him.
"My fellow sligs of the alpha." "Let us eat for this food shall not be waisted!" "Tonight is a night of celebration for every night is a celebration of life." "But tonight is special because of our guests."
Explained Chun.
Then everybody at the banquet started to eat.
"Hey Kluna, we have to talk to him about our delema."
"Not now Zin, I am enjoying our treatment here."
Then Zin turned to Silak who was sitting next to him.
"Ive never seen Kluna so happy since we were stranded Silak." "I think he is starting to like it here." Explained Zin.
"He needs someone who would treat him better than I have!" Explained Zin. "Ive alweys been ordering him around back on Mudos and sometimes he hates me for that." Explained Zin. "But we have been alweys friends since we were Mudoklings liveing with our mother Sam." "Am I going crazy Silak?" Explained Zin.
"Sure your not!" "You two are in seperable friends." I see it in you two ever since I met you." "It is normal for you to have disagreements about things especially dangerous things." "I think he is just trying to fit in with you since you show signs of a great leader." "Thats all." "So treat him with more respect and he will thankyou for that Zin." Explained Silak.
"Oh thanks Silak you know a lot!" "He will wonder what has come over me when I start treating him better." Laughed Zin.
And they all were eating and enjoying the strange but exotic music of the Sligs not even thinking that the next day they will have to leave the temple and continue their great journey and brave the unknown of this Lost Conntinent. But they won't do so until they get the wisdom of which they are seeking from Chun.
