Gooble greets Eki and Anya, seemingly curious about the two.

"You're new here, are you? My name is Gooble! I'm a mysterious specimen from outer space, and i have some cool powers! I can do this!"

Gooble then transform into a little kitten. "Purr!" he purrs. Next he transforms into a bluebird, which then flies around, chirping. Then, he turns into an alligator, who shows his teeth. Finally he transform into his true form which is an adorable blue blob, seemingly tired. Then he turns into his boy form.

"Tada! So who are you?"

Eki and Anya look at the blob in interest? Wait, it can shapeshift? Oh Goddess, it better not be a Doppelganger. But at the same time, Doppelgangers' true forms aren't blue and don't have faces, and changelings don't have faces while transforming either. What is this thing?

"Awww! That's so cool, and you're adorable!" Anya says. "Anyways... names! Oh Eki, get ready to introduce yourself!"

"(Got it.)"

"I'm Anya Wannai, crown princess of Iva Province! I also do research work on the side, and adventuring too."

"...Uh... my name is Eki. I am also a researcher and an adventurer. Uh... nice to meet you. I guess."

"You just got a last name, you know!"

Eki doesn't pay attention to Anya's comment. Instead, they're focused on Destiny's apparent racism.

"Hey! Uh... we're not aliens! Have you seriously uh... not met any humans without round ears and no tail?"

Then, Eki blurts a interesting question. A very interesting question. They might as well confirm their growing suspicions about this place.

"Uh... what year is it?"
