"If ya don't mind me asking, how'd you become sisters with Rikku?" Trinity wondered aloud, smiling.
------------------------------------------------------------
"Great! I heard that his Granpa owns a game shop." Marik chimed.

Rebound paused. "Well... Islanzadi visited my homeworld, where I was elder princess. Seeing the turmoil it was in, she proposed to my mother her help with reestablishing our planet, Irion. In exchange, though, I was to go with her and because the newest daughter of the Queen of Ellesmera." She sighed. "Not long after that, we grew again, Rayne or Alianore and Andromeda, I think. And then, one of the last, Rikku was dropped off with us."
------------------------
He was rewarded with a blank look. "Game... Shop....?" she asked slowly, looking confused.

"Islan-who?" The twins asked in unison, giving Rebound a blank look.
-------------------------------------------------------
"It's a place that sells games like Duel Monsters." Marik explained, smiling at Siren.

"Ah. Islanzadi is... Our foster mother, or in Sabrina's case, mother." She sighed. "She's Elfin Queen of Ellesmera, which is in another dimension."
-----------------------
Lightbulb. "Oh! I see!" She smiled, obviously not the brightest crayon in the box.

"Wow....And here I thought that the Shadow Realm Yugi keeps going on about was the only other dimension out there!" Trinity said in amazement.
----------------------------------------------
Marik doubled over laughing at Siren's expression. "Your funny, y'know that?"

Rebound smiled slightly. "Oh, no, no, no... There are far many others. Planets, too." She waved her hand upwards, though a clear view of the sky was blocked by the ceiling. "You just can't see them." Her face took on a happy, mystical glow, meaning that this was obviously her favorite subject.
-----------------------
Siren paused, then grinned. "Am I?" she asked, laughing. "I'm glad."

"We've got loads of time, so you wanna share your infinite knowledge about the universe?" Trinity asked, showing Rebound to the living room.
----------------------------------------------------------
"Yep. Your gonna make some guy happy, that's for sure." He added, grinning.

Rebound brightened again. "I'd love to... But it's not often someone lets me... I go on for hours..." she warned softly.
-------------------
Siren giggled. "You're gonna make a lucky gal real happy," she said in response, smiling at him.

"This is news to us, so we're willing to listen." Elina said. "We've both sat through some insanely boring lectures at school, so we can listen to you easily." Trinity added.
---------------------------------------------------
"I certainly hope so!" Marik said, smiling. "'Course, she'd have to put up with certain Tomb Keeper rituals." He added, sighing as he rubbed his back.

Rebound seemed startled before smiling again. "Alright..." Her voice grew soft. "Well, let's see where to begin....."
---------------------
Siren looked curious. "Rituals? Probably no worse than the ones back home..." At the mention of those, she pursed her lips, obviously angry with the thought of them.

"Let's just say that until the Pharaoh can be returned to his eternal resting place I'm stuck with this scripture stuff on my back....then again.....it's carved into my body so I guess it's permanent." Marik said, lifting his shirt to reveal a carving of a tablet & hieroglyphs on his back.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Maybe with Ellesmera?" Trinity asked curiously.

Siren instinctively reached out a hand to trace the shapes on his back, but halted herself. "Um... Do you mind if...?" she trailed off slowly.
--------------------
Rebound paused. "Ellesmera..." Her voice took on a sudden, dreamlike quality. "Ellesmera is the capital of Du Weldenvarden, the home of the Elves in Alagaesia, which is in a different dimension, Ael Zepher. It's a hard land, especially the desert, since King Galbatorix crowned himself king. Du Weldenvarden, however, is lush and green, with various animals everywhere." She closed her eyes, followed by the dragon closing her own, and, in her mind's eye, was back in her more recent home. "Forestry surrounds the many Elfen villages, and crowds around the capital in a protective ring."
She paused for a transition effect to go over to the next subject. "There are few children in Du Weldenvarden now, the most abundant offspring times being when I and my sisters were children." She paused again. "The castle of Ellesmera, where I was first introduced to my foster siblings and my foster... father," She practically spat out the word, but them returned to her dreamlike voice,"is grand and tall, with handsome stones and ivy scaling the walls to encircle the towers. There is a great oaken door, sang into place, that leads to the entrance hall, which has plants spilling from every crevice." She went on to describe different rooms, including the ballroom and the dining hall.
Suddenly, she stopped and opened her eyes. "Perhaps I should tell you the tale of the castle... For Alagaesia was once inhabited not only by humans, dwarves, Elves, and dragons... But Du Weldenvarden was once in possession of Vampyren... And their slaves, the Lycans." She smiled gently at Trinity and Elina. "I will tell you the story of Sonya and Lucien, and of the Lycans' uprising.... And their subsequent downfall to the Elves."

"Not at all. To be honest, you might even be able to help in the end, for all I know." Marik said, thinking about how he had to find the lost Pharaoh.
---------------------------------------
"Sounds wickedly huge!" Trinity commented while Annika titled her head to the side. "Werewolves inhabited Ellesmera?" She asked, astounded.

Siren brightened, then slowly began tracing the marks on his back, her fingertip gingerly drawn, not wanting to press down too hard. "Wow...." she murmured.
------------------------------------
Rebound chuckled at Trinity, then nodded. "Yes. Millions of years ago." She smiled dreamily. "It's an interesting tale, if I do say so myself."

"Bet it is! Truth be told, I bet it's even better than the lost Pharaoh's tale!" Trinity chimed, bouncing slightly making her sister laugh. "Down girl! Sometimes, she doesn't exactly make sense." She chirped before she got a twat. "Twit! The legend of the 7 millennium items is known 'round the world!"
--------------------------
"You can press down on them, I tend to sleep on my back so it won't bother me." "Do you mind me asking the names of the rest of your friends?" Marik asked Siren, twisting to look at her as she examined his back.
