You are within the fable of Kthalk's dreamweave. The Spider Queen spins deftly as she skitters about the tea house.
Her chitinous legs prepare a fine herbal tea as she chitters. Kthalk had previously explained that the tea house itself is, as she put it,
"Simply a pocket-reality existing outside your concept of time and space."
Your travels through Lorcan have taken you far, and you've seen many strange twists of fate. One does not simply miss the opportunity for tea time with Dreamweaver Kthalk, the Spider Queen of the infinite cosmos. You notice she's lost weight.
She delicately pours you a cup. Her eight eyes focus on you.
"¿Hahx ack te-kha? ¿Zxthryr ah-ta?"
The words scramble in your mind, rooting into your emotions, and at once become coherent.
"Are you well, my friend? What's the news?"
