[Gorthan is sitting on a bench, and the Library can clearly be seen in the background. He sighs to himself before speaking.]

It would appear I have been asleep for nearly a month. Of you, dear denizens of Vatheon, I ask two things - that you tell me more about this unusual state of prolonged sleep, and that you provide a brief report of anything I may have missed during my forced absence.

You have my thanks in advance. And if you wish for a reward in exchange for the information I seek, it could consists of book recommendations, for I have nothing else to offer at the moment.

[Inwardly, he is a little nervous. He has yet to check whether on his acquaintances here, and he wonders whether they are all still around.]

[It's moments like this one wishes they had eyebrows. Gorthan's brow furrows anyway.]

Are you deaf, earthling? As I said, this is the Guardian of Earth...

... Unless. Did you just reveal his civilian identity to me? But, to my knowledge, magic is a very scarcely known art on Earth, and "mage" does not constitute a profession.

...

[He scratches his head.]

Wait... this has ta be... This has happened before! People who've recognized me from their world, even though I've never met them... and I've met people who I knew before, but they were from different worlds so they didn't know me. A case of our copies in other worlds.

[warrior_king]

[He seems thoughtful for a moment, but finally nods.]

I see. Three of my acquaintances here have known each other for a long time, but each of them is from a world that slightly differs from the other two... A few similarities could exist between our worlds as well.

[Meanwhile, the Donald/Superduck hologram is still there.]

Donald Duck, you say? Have another look. Are you sure it is your friend?

[takesyoubytheheart]

[he squints, looks it over, and nods.]

I dunno if that's his name or anythin' in yer world, but he looks exactly like the Donald from mine. a real swell fella, I've known him since I was a kid.

[warrior_king]

And you're saying he can... wield magic?

[Eeep, if Superduck can use magic, the Evronian army is even more screwed than it is now...]

[takesyoubytheheart]

Yup. He's one of the strongest mages across the worlds! And he's always learning new spells. He's also very loyal, and I know I can count on him.
