Yea, you nod as an idea wafts into your mind like a wayward fart, your friends here don’t know much about Gnoks–mind educating ‘em a bit?
Obber raises an eyebrow in confusion. “What, you can’t manage that yourself?”
N-no, you totally can, you counter, but you just wanted them to get, y’know, a different perspective! Like a second opinion!
Something about your choice of words elicits a twinkle in the Gnok’s eye. “Ohhh, I getcha! Well gee, where do I even begin? Kinda strange that a Skog and Durher can’t put a few facts together about Gnoks–y’all from around here?”
“Yep!” Nods Volka beaming with pride, “Anton here’s actually a hu-”
<span class="mu-s">UUUUUUUGE</span> fan of Gnok culture, you interject, vainly attempting to reach up and shut the amazon’s mouth and instead deeming to flick her hip instead! Yep, can’t get enough!
“Nice ta’ see a fellow patriot!” Obber nods with approval! “Well you probably know about all of our technical achievements–Bumot, Singing Stones, not that ya’ see many of those around the Docks… yep, chances are if it’s an invention, Gnoks made it happen!
“What about the Mox and Durhers, hm?” Asks Tzah-Tzie, suddenly interested in the conversation!
“Yes, yes, they helped brainstorm…” The Gnok replies with a dismissive wave. “There’s also the misconception that the more feather plumage a Gnok has, the more potent their magical ability–but that’s all malarky if ya’ ask me!” Poking at what you assume are said feathers on his head, Obber shoots you a conspiratorial glance! “It’s actually <span class="mu-s">HORN LENGTH</span> that does it! That’s why I don’t taper ‘em any more! Pain in the ass to get through doors sometimes, but it’s a small price to pay!”
Totally, you nod, you… that happens <span class="mu-i">all</span> the time to you! RRrgh! So frustrating, ha ha.
“You get it!” Obber chortles, slapping a hand on the counter! “Let’s see, what else… oh right–everyone always thinks there’s just one kind of Gnok, but that couldn’t be further from the truth!”
“Oh, I know this one!” Squeaks Tzah-Tzie as she climbs onto the counter and takes a seat! “There are three-”
“Yep, all you other races are so darn ignorant…” Sighs the stockhouse sultan, “There are three subgroups of Gnok–each one from a different part of the world and with their own unique history: the Balzer, Vaan-Mok, and the Hiin!”
